[thelist] Flash question

Hey guys

I'm editing a flash file that someone else put together, because it
linked to a URL and the URL has changed, and we need to update the flash
file. Unfortunately the person who made the flash file isn't working
with us anymore, so we don't have the original source file, only the
.swf file.

I imported the .swf file into flash, and it looks like the import went
well. My question is this: it was a set of images that were linked to
the URL, and I'm trying to get to it, but flash is telling me that
images can't be used as HTTP links, like text can.

Is this something that got screwed up in the import, maybe? I'm thinking
that perhaps it was text in the original version, and that's how it was
linked, but the import changed the characters to graphics.

If this is what happened, how can I fix this? We need to fix the flash
file...
