Showing Current Page with Flash Slider Menu

I am making a flash navigation bar with a slider using the tutorial at kipura.com. I would like to modify it so that the slider starts out as a default under the current page. I have tried to add in a piece of code to do this, but I am still learning ActionScript and it didn't work. I added this to the actions of the slider:

Code: Select all

onClipEvent (load) {

if (this._url = "page1.html") {
    slider.xMove = button_1._x;
}else if (this._url = "page2.html") {
    slider.xMove = button_2._x;
}else if (this._url = "page3.html") {
    slider.xMove = button_3._x;
}else if (this._url = "page4.html") {
    slider.xMove = button_4._x;
}
easeSpeed = 2;

}

Any help or pointers that I could get would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

You might need to post your file for help on this one..it looks like you are on the right track.

You might just need some identifiers in your timeline to tell the slider where to move to on the timeline...but I need to see how the slider works to see if that is a viable option.

Alright, here's the navigation bar (I had to remove the images and so i replaced the buttons with orange squares...so no, the finished product wont look that ugly Looking forward to hearing what you guys think!
