Need to change where Flash links to

Question

I have a page with a Flash animation being used for the logo. When the user clicks the logo it's supposed to take them to a different URI. Unfortunately, that URI no longer exists.

I don't have the Flash Pro from Adobe. Is there another way to edit this animation so I can change where it links to?

If I absolutely can't change it, I'm thinking about maybe over-riding it with Javascript, but I'm not sure if that would work.

Thanks for any help.

Answer 1

Download a program called flasm. http://flasm.sourceforge.net/

It is a Flash compiler/decompiler that is Free.

This will decompile the swf file to its byte code. Do not worry about being able to read it. Just open the code in a text editor and search for the url string.

Change the URL string and then recompile with flasm.

That will take care of your problem.
