Question

Hi I have a flash menu showing a few links, but when the user is logged in I want to change the menu from menu1 to menu2 … so that it will display “My Account” rather than “Signup”

The code below is for my flash:

<div id="menu"> 
 <object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,0,0" width="825" height="69" id="menu1" align="middle">
 <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
 <param name="allowFullScreen" value="false" />
 <param name="movie" value="menu1.swf" /><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" /> <embed src="menu1.swf" quality="high" wmode="transparent" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="825" height="69" name="menu1" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" allowFullScreen="false" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
 </object>
 </div>

Php:

if (loggedin())
 {

  echo '<script type="text/javascript">
   CHANGE FLASH LINK HERE
   </script>';  


 }

Could this be done without having to write all the above code out again?

Thanks 🙂

Use .attr():

$(document).ready(function() {
    $("#menu > object > embed").attr("src", "new link");
});
