Any thoughts as to why this works correctly in CS5 publish preview but when I publish it I either get no action or (XP comupter) or a blank page (vista) Any thoughts or insight would be appreciated. Also, I'm new to flash and here's the button action:
on (release) {
//create the LoadVars that will hold our paypal information
var paypal = new LoadVars();

I have a strange issue with flash.
I have created a dynamic user interface which pulls urls from an xml file.
Heres the structure
Main movie
care_btn movie
action script for main movie is as follows
links_xml = new XML();
links_xml.ignoreWhite = true;

I have a TileList of image thumbnails that pulls its image location and caption info from a remote XML file. when you click on a thumb it displays a larger image and changes when you click another image. it works perfectly inside Flash, but when i publish the images, xml, and swf, everything works except the thumbs do not display, and clicking an empty cell doesn't bring up the larger image. i first thought that maybe my xml file was in the wrong place, but since i am still getting 12 empty cells (12 images listed in the xml), i'm questioning whether its my xml code or my as3 code. getting no errors from flash because the entire swf functions as intended locally.
my xml file and images folder reside in the same folder as the swf on my website.
my xml code and as3 code are below:
BEGIN XML
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<photos>
<image caption="Steve" url="images/web/DSC01921.jpg" thumburl="images/thumb/DSC01921.jpg"/>

I have a flash project that I have been working on for a while, today its stopped functioning properly. To be clear. It still runs JUST FINE when I preview it (CTRL+ENTER), but when I publish the file and run the SWF file, or the HTML file the movie no longer functions properly. Specifically any ActionScript from the main timeline seems to no longer be functioning. ActionScript contained within movie clips continues to function properly, but nothing else.There is about 400 lines of code right now (variables, functions etc.)
View 8 RepliesBasically I have a 2 swf files. Within the main swf i have a button that I want to call in a second swf when it is clicked. The code I have for this looks as below..
Btn_interiors.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,lo adGallery);
function loadGallery(event:MouseEvent):void{
var l = new Loader(); addChild(l); l.load(new URLRequest("portfolio_interiors.swf"));
}
The problem I am having is that when I enter the code and "Check Syntax" no errors appear, however when I preview the published swf and click the button, i get the following message....Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL Not Found.
To me this would seem to say that the swf I am trying to call in is not in the appropriate folder, but both of the files are in the same folder.
I have only two fields Name and Email in a Order form and a PayPal button for payment at PayPal ( into my account).I can do the mail portion but have no idea about PayPal code, however on search here I found one code and after pasting this one to the PayPal button it redirects to my PayPal account. But the question is anybody can post a message and leave the site without paying me. How can I do this thing so that the user will forced to pay before posting the mail form. No idea how to proceed?

I have tried to develop my first flash project using Actionscript 3.0. When I "Publish Preview" (HTML - Default, Flash and HTML) in Flash CS5 Pro, the project seems to work just fine. However, when I actually publish the project the html with the swf file does not display correctly. The flash file is suppose to show a video with a video control skin (play, pause etc.) beneath the video. On the video I have tried to embed a button at the bottom of the display that, when clicked, takes the user to a webpage.
The flash file is suppose to look like the one at: [URL]. This is just an image of the "Publish Preview" output.
What I get with the published html and swf file is at: [URL]. Just the button displays???
My fla file is at: [URL]
I created a complex fixed line and a bird flying on the line using tweens from point A to B to C. When I view the birdline in play or by scrubbing across them in the layers mode, the bird follows the line just as designed. When I test the birdline in "test Scene" or "test movie" one bird flies from point A to C, then another bird appears at point B and flies the course to point C. The published .swf and .html do the same as the test functions. What can I do to get the published version to behave the same as the design?
View 9 RepliesI have simple navigation code setup to step through frames (I'm using Flash instead PowerPoint--too many pictures that are PSDs and illustrations that are AIs to do the conversions over to something PowerPoint understands).[code]When I test it using the debug (Ctrl+Shift+Enter) it works fine.When I publish it, the up and down arrows work but the Home and End keys do not work.They do nothing, no error messages, nothing.Using Flash CS4 Pro 10.0.2 ActionScript 3.

View 1 RepliesI'm using a different domain to host the swf file. The different domain is a media server to take the load off our own server and ISP. Actually, we have 2 different media server URLs. One each for development and production. I'm pretty sure the problem is a security issue in the flash. When I take the media server URL out of the file paths everything works. Although I have a crossdomain.xml with the media server urls included, I don't think it's permitting the request.

I learned a few years ago on Actionscript 2 and I'm finding Actionscript 3 very confusing. I figured out (through much searching) how to write up a working (in theory) hyperlink script. When I open it up in preview mode, the link goes through (very slowly and doesn't come up in my default browser, but it works). When I try to work the link in Internet Explorer or Chrome (haven't tried firefox) nothing happens.

I have a few words written in static text mode which I have made a graphic symbol. On the timeline I have used both motion tween and classic tween to create a aplha change from 0% to 100%.I made sure I have enoough space on my timeline (10 frames).The aplha tween works fine in preview mode however when I export the swf the aplha tween is no longer working? I have tried breaking the text,restarting flash,restarting my computer and similar suggestions from other blogs such as:
I was able to solve this by checking the box "Use runtime bitmap caching" under Blend in the properties panel for the MovieClip in question.I am currently using Flash CS5 on a imac.
i made a simple nav bar with a dropdown menu it works fine in flash mode and preview but when i try to embed into html it only show the nav bar but not the dropdown menu.

I have a slideshow that is looped ... it contains 5 slides.I am using a gotoandPlay action to control the slide show.
on (release) {
this._parent.gotoAndPlay("98");
}
There is a fade transition between slides.When a button is released ... I want to gotoandPlay (frame 98) ... and then have it stop 10 frames later on (frame 108). Frame 98 includes the transition ... if I just gotoandStop on frame 108 ... I loose the transition.Is there any way to incorporate a stop action, after a gotoandPlay action on my button ... without naming instances etc.I.E.
on (release) {
this._parent.gotoAndPlay("98");
STOP ON FRAME 108 INTEGRATED HERE
}
Everything I have attempted is not working.
I just want to make a simple button action using actionscript 2 but I can't get it to work! I'm sorry for even asking but I've been at this for too long now for it to not work I'm using Adobe Flash CS4 and I do the following --
File -> New Flash File (ActionScript 2.0)
Insert -> New Symbol
Name - test
Type - button
Export for ActionScript
Identifier - test
And then draw it in using the keyframes and add the code to 'Actions - Button' for my button
Code:
on(release) {
trace("trace");
}
I click on the button and it animates but no action event in the trace?
I've been creating this banner: [url removed] which accesses an xml document, replaces some texts etc, but as soon as you open it up in a browser (like with the dropbox link I pasted) the banner only loops on the first movie clip. Put in another way: The banner you see is looping through only the first movie clip. But the swf file (and the html file) work fine from the local path of my computer.

View 1 RepliesI have a project where I have a main project which loads external .swfs, and those external .swfs in turn load more external .swfs. In my main project, everything works perfectly when I preview using simulate download, but once the .swf is published it doesn't work properly. I'm assuming is has something to do with my main site Preloader, that's why I posted here. I'm pasting the code here and attaching the latest size report.

How can I get an action to follow another action when a button is clicked? When a button is clicked, I want the timeline to go to a certain frame and play and when it's done playing, to go to another frame and play. I basically want two actions in one function.
