I'm trying to simply dynamically load an image (or movie) and if the user clicks on it a web page is loaded.I have successfully been able to dynamically load an image but nothing happens when I click on it. I'm using Flash CS4 with AS 2. Here's my code
I've created an empty movieclip (imgHolder) dynamically on my stage and through XML I've loaded a picture into this movieclip which works fine. However, if I click on the picture, nothing happens.
The PHP script below basically returns variables myImage0, myImage1, and so on. I know how to get the variables (URL's) into flash, and I know how to load the jpegs associated with each URL. What I don't know how to do is make each movie clip clickable, and be able to use geturl so that when they are clicked they can go to whatever.
did anyone come across this before? is there another way to make an image clickable inside a dynamically loaded xml text?Alternatively can anyone suggest a method to style dynamic textfields instead of using html?I've tried with many different fonts, and many different stylesheets, its still the same.
i am doing a slideshow with images occuring randomly wch hav clickable links,okay it works but at times the transition is very fast instead of the 8s interval i expect ,when i view the trace() output ,i have noted that at times the timer is triggerd twice or more simultaneously...my code is below...what maybe the cause may u kindly assist i have 21 frames with 21 images
I am wondering how to make a movie clip that contains automatic vertical scrolling dynamic text(from an external .txt file) I dont want to press buttons to scroll text, I need it to be constantly scrolling, then loop once the text has been read from the external txt file.
I also require each line of the dynamic text to be clickable links that will take each line of text to a specific link. Ive uploaded a zip file containing fla and swf i found which shows vertical scrolling text. However if i move any of the graphics and text field clips around the stage the text cannot be seen anymore. why is this? can you put all of the items on the main stage in a movie clip so i can resize and move the scroller around the stage?? I tried this but again the text disapeared when i exported the movie? Is this due to the x + y co ordinates in the scripting?
How can you adjust the size of this scroller without this happening? Can the scrolling text be taken from an external file and each line of text be a seperate hyperlink? Follow this link (copy and paste it into your browser window, DONT click on it): [URL]..
I have a movie clip that is dropped onto my main scene, and I have the AS below as the frame's AS.
The concept is simple: Create dynamic empty movieclips, position them, fill them, make them clickable. The code under "//////////////////////////////////////Code below here doesn't work" isn't working. The code worked fine when attempting to do this on my main scene, but I ran across some interface issues that caused me to put them into anorther MC. I understand that I only included the code for the first button, right now I would like to get at least one working.
This is my first post as i m just beginner in Flash JavaScript. I want to prepare a FLash Movie in which all the images r dynamic and the images should change after a time say every 30 secs the image changes.
I have developed a rolling credits style movieclip in Flash using Actionscript 2. Text is loaded from an XML file and parsed into a dynamic textfield. This text includes hyperlinks to webpages defined by a url node in the xml so Flash can add the appropriate a href to the dynamic text field and make the link clickable.
In my first attempts to do this the textfield stayed still and all the links worked fine both testing locally and when I run it in a browser on my website.Then I wanted to make things move ... which I achieved easily enough and tested locally (from within Flash Professional) and the links remained clickable, a browser window opened and the webpage i was expecting to see opened... great
However, when I export the swf, upload it and run it from my website suddenly the links are not working. So I tried to test the movie in a browser from Flash Pro - same problem, it must be something to do with Flash Player and the moving dynamic textfield.
a couple of observations - the cursor will change to a hand icon when over the links as you would expect, and if I right click on the link and click open in a new window the link works ok, just not when I left click. If I stop the scrolling then the links become clickable again, it is only when the textfield is moving... actually its not technically scrolling, im moving the whole textfield.
I'm getting crazy with this error and found no solution until now. Well, the issue consist in create dynamic movieclips and external jpgs into a for loop through xml nodes and add the respective image into that movieclip.
I am currently building a flash site which uses dynamic images throughout using loadMovie("picture.jpg", mc_name) to load them into various movie clips. This all works fine and the site is starting to look good, the only problem i have is with preloading. I have the main swf file and everything contained within it preloading with a progress bar at the start which works fine. When the movie loads the main homepage image slowly fades in, however as the loadMovie("home.jpg", homepic) is on the same frame as the homepage, if you don't have the image in your cache then you miss the fade completely in the time it takes the image to load.
As a result i am wanting to preload this (and a few other) images during the initial preloader if possible, that way i can prevent this problem from occurring. Unfortunately from what i understand i can't run loadMovie from within my preloader actions as they're in a different frame so i'm really not sure how to do it, given the image is external
My boss wanted me to make scrolling images and captions for each image when you rollover them. I made the images scroll by making each image a button and masking those images. I can't seem to get the captions right though.The dynamic text box I am using is inside the mask (because I cannot figure out how to put it on the main time line and make it work). The rollovers work when the dynamic text box is in the mask, but when I scroll through the images, the text scrolls too and some of the captions you cannot even see. The web site is below if you need to see what I am talking about.http:[url].......
I figured that what I need to do is put the dynamic text box on the main time line and not in the mask. But I can't seem to get that to work.Here is the code I am putting on the actual image buttons. My text box instance name is rOver and yes, I did embed the fonts.
on (rollOver) { rOver.text ="caption"; }[code]..............
I have a swf that is 6MB and takes for ever to load. No surprise there. It's an animated website. Now what i want to do is go through the whole thing and make it so all the images used in it are loaded dynamicly. is there some command or code i can use. None of the animation is done with actionscript it's all in the time line.
I want to develop an application as hexapartners.net/Application
I have problem in using the uploaded images in my application.Please refer to following 1. Go to hexapartners.net/Application 2. Click on "Upload own graphics" 3. A new window will open, upload ur image in that. 4. Click on "Icon" on hexapartners page and select "Uploaded" category from combo box. 5. You will see ur uploaded image in the scrollpane and when u click on that it will be loaded on the right side This is what i actually want to do.
So I have a function to create images dynamically in as2, telling some parameters, the problem I am facing is that I need to add this function to a file that has as3, so is incompatible, can anyone please help me translate it to as3?
function goGetUrl(dir:String){ getURL(dir, "_blank"); }
[code]....
For example the getURL(dir, "_blank"); does not work, I think I can change it by:
navigateToURL(new URLRequest (dir));
also I know that getNextHighestDepth() is not available in as3
This is something that has bugged me for a while, and I just can't seem to find the answer.My issue involves preloading my site and images that are dynamically loaded. My preloader, as it should, considers whatever is on my stage. But the preloader never waits for my dynamic stuff to load. Why is that??So my problem is that the preloader "thinks" that everything is loaded and send the user to the home page of the site, where none of the dynamically loaded images have appeared yet.
Basically i want to add a dynamic image to scrollpane in order that when i click on it, it is added to one movie clip.So, in order to achieve this i have done as follows :-1) Convert image to button and add on press event in it. In on press event, i add loadMovie(url,mc) so it gets added to movieclip.2) Then i converted this button to movieclip as i wanted to add it to a scrollpane.Upto this there is no problem since i used static images but now i want to add dynamic images (added by users).
I want an Object or symbol that is a button similar to what you would see on an iPhone home screen. That is, There is a base image (dynamic) that has some level of alpha masking or effects on top (highlights), a rounded corner mask, and a text label underneath (dynamic).
I have found many, many resources to make a dynamic text label, but making the image dynamic and applying the effects on top of the image.
im trying to load images dynamically ..each visible for 20 frames....it works fine on my computer but when i upload it the images are not..is it bcoz i need to preload the images before?..how do i preload dynamic images?
In the code below, I am loading in multiple images from based on an xml file. I am looking for a way to dynamically place the images depending on how many results are brought back. I have the starting points for the first image in each section in the code, I am trying to basically add about 40 pixels to those numbers for each image
Code: var xml = new XML(); xml.ignoreWhite = true;
I have written the following to send variables to PHP which searches a MySQL database and returns the results in XML. However for the life of me I cannot get the XML data loaded into the Movie Clips of my Flash site.Is there an obvious problem that I've overlooked?
ActionScript Code: var imageDir:String = "Images/"; var getImage:XML; var imageList = new Array(); var newPic:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
I have an MS Acces Database, i using flash and asp. My client using a CMS where he can put quicktime movies and images. The client dont have Flash! how i can put this dynamic in flash?
I have 3 movieClips on the stage. I want this to load images from urls that I have withdrawn from a php script that randomly selects from stored urls in the database. I want to load one of these into each movieclip. Here is the code that I have, but it doesn't work. (Btw, this is on a frame of the movie)
Ok so I'm working on a project at my job and things are going very well. The Flash application is 100% dynamic from text to text field colors, to panel colors, etc..The back end runs off of ASP in case you're curious.
Now we are up to the part where we have to load images into a panel. The images are uploaded by the user and the names are stored in a database. The panel should load 6 images at a time, 3 rows 2 columns.
Our ASP programmers aren't 100% sure on how they should be sending me the images. I started toying around with some code, assuming I have an image count which they will provide.
[Code]...
So as of now I have 6 panels going across my movie, which is fine, but now I need to columnize them into 3 rows 2 columns. So that's my concern as of now. Later on I will need to figure out how to say "if there are 6+ images have next and previous buttons to load the next ones". So if anyone has any good links on that it would be cool.
