linking to a .pdf file
by John Castelli on Apr 24, 2008 at 6:39:21 pm

Hi all, I'm just wondering if there's a special way to link something to a pdf file that would be opened up in acrobat. My first thought is to drag it to the FTP site and use that path and when you click on the button it will open a prompt asking if you want to open it- does that sound accurate?

Hey, Try this code attached to a button:

on (release) {
getURL("your.pdf");

}

it should open up in the browser (if your browser reads pdfs) otherwise it will ask what you want to do with the file.

Hope this helps
Tony
