    Default Google search inside flash

    Hi all,

    Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong, I have a google search box inside my flash file and the return value is always ( undefined ).

    Here is my code for the button;
    ---------------------------------------------------
    on (release) {
    getURL("http://www.google.com/search?q=" + _root.strSearch, "_blank");
    trace(_root.strSearch);
    }
    on(rollOver){
    gotoAndPlay("s1");
    }
    on(releaseOutside, rollOut){
    h=1;
    }
    ------------------------------------------------------



    here is the code for the search box;
    ------------------------------------------------------
    var fields_descriptions = Array("", Array("t1", "keyword", "- enter Search word -"));


    function reset_txt(name, name2, value) {
    path = eval(_target);
    path[name2] = value;

    this[name].onSetFocus = function() {
    path = eval(_target);
    if (path[name2] == value) {
    path[name2] = "";
    }
    };

    this[name].onKillFocus = function() {
    path = eval(_target);
    if (path[name2] == "") {
    path[name2] = value;
    }
    };
    }

    for (i=1; i<=fields_descriptions.length; i++) {
    reset_txt("t"+i,fields_descriptions[i][1],fields_descriptions[i][2]);
    }
    -------------------------------------------------------------

    Hope someone can help me sort this out.

    Thumbs down

    Hi again,
    I have tried changing my root varibles as this must have been an issue.

    ex;
    on (release) {
    getURL("http://www.google.com/search?q=" + _root.strsearch, "_blank");
    trace(_root.strsearch);
    }

    to on (release) {
    getURL("http://www.google.com/search?q=" + _root.keyword, "_blank");
    trace(_root.keyword);
    }

    as keyword is the variable name of my search box. But I still get an undefined search result from google.

    I must be missing something very small.
