ActionScript 2.0 :: Activating A Swf Without Click?

May 20, 2010

I' am building a web site where i have a navigation which also works by pressing the (4) keyboard buttons, up, right, down, left. When the web site loads the keyboard navigation works only after i click somewhere on the screen.

The same things happens in Safari, Firefox and I.E.Any thoughts about how can i make this work without the need to click somewhere on screen before it works?

CS3 : Keep Button From Activating Until After Mc Plays?

Jul 17, 2009

I have a simple movie clip of fading in text displaying on page with a sound. also have a button that allows user to go to the next frame. It is an exercise for students that basically goes like this: object presented in each frame, spelling (text) for that object fades in on mc with sound attached to mc, then button activates to let them move on to next. Since they are trigger happy, I don't want the button that allows to move on to activate on the frame until AFTER the movieclip and it's sound have played out (which is like 2 seconds so not a long wait) - otherwise, they would just keep clicking next and not listen to the material presented (it's very young children).

How do I set this up? I knew it's likely very simple, but I'm a newbie. Of course, I could always just do it on the timeline, but I have a ton of material, so am trying to use actionscript to be more efficient. for even younger kids, am considering setting this up so they can move to next frame through any keypress. I know how to set up a certain key, but not ANY key.

Professional :: Re -activating Script After Stop

Jan 10, 2010

How do I stop a script from running, or remove it from a swf at a specific frame, (on its own layer "actions") and then start it again, or script it again on another frame further down the timeline?If I try and put the same script on another layer, past the stop(); or anywhere for that matter, flash gives me a duplicate function definition error.Lets say my swf is embedded in an html and its url is abc.com. When you navigate to that url the swf plays, all scripts work, buttons work to link to frame anchors back and forth within the swf and all is fine. As long as you remain at abc.com and link with a gotoAndPlay(frame), or gotoAndStop(frame) function from the script internally in the swf.However lets say one of those buttons goes to dce.com (urlRequest... dce.com...) essentially navigating away from the swf, .and at dce.com there is a link to go back to abc.com/index.html#frame, when you choose to navigate back to that frame in the swf, it does, but the script no longer works.

The script is on all anchor frames, and works intially in the swf when you play the movie for the first time, the movie stops (stop();) at a specific frame, and continues to navigate around to specific frame anchors and back and forth, the script continues to work as long as you are within the movie so to speak. However if you decide to go to dce.com, essentially leaving the movie and then at dce.com there is a link back to a specific frame, when I link back to the swf, from dce.com, the script no longer functions?I cannot imagine this is not something that quite a few people use, a combination of flash pages and html pages and interlinking them back and forth, I just cannot find ANY info searching exhaustively on why the script will not work after returning to a swf frame after navigating away to anywhere else and then back to the swf frame needed.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Frame Labels And Activating Them?

Oct 23, 2009

I have a game I am working on currently, and say I have an animation that plays (this is in a seperate mc) when you click. So it's basically a function. Anyway, one the animation plays through inside the mc, the last frame I put:

ActionScript Code:
stop();
gotoAndStop(1)

After this, I added five or so frames on a seperate layer with another animation on it, put the same code on the last frame, and gave the first keyframe of this second animation the label name "reload".If I then go back to the main stage, how would I code it so that if, for example, I press the down key, it would play that particular frame label?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Activating A Page Without Opening It?

Dec 29, 2009

I was given a .FLA containing a banner and was asked to create an input text field and a button that, when clicked, opens a new window with the address, say "www.mywebsite.com/page.php?value=..." where "..." is what the user types in the input text field. The page the user is sent to then performs some action. Now they're asking me to make the page automatically perform that action, as in, they want the .FLA to send the value typed in by the user to that page at [URL] without the user actually going to that page at all. Is this flash-related or even possible?

In short what I'm asking is: Is it at all possible, in principle, to hand a value over to a .php page using flash and then make that page perform an action without being opened? If so could you point me in the direction of how to do it?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Activating Lightbox 2.0 From Flash

Mar 14, 2007

Im using the Lightbox 2.0 [URL] And a flash movie in the same page. Now ive got this thumbnail slider in the flashmovie with thumbnails loaded from an xml file. As soon as i hit a thumbnail i want the Lightbox to show the full image of the thumbnail.

I've got everything set up and if i test if the Lightbox works with an html link it works perfectly:

HTML Code:
<a href = "path/to/image.jpg" rel="lightbox" title="my Title">Lightbox test</a>

Now my question is how do I call the same action in AS?

I understood the rel attribute refers to both the Lightbox JavaScript and the StyleSheet. But i really dont know how to set the rel attribute in flash.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Activating Lightbox 2 From Flash

Jun 20, 2007

if it is possible to activate lightbox 2 from flash.

As extracted from the Lightbox tutorial, lightbox needs an <a href> tag with a rel="lightbox" attribute to be activated.

e.g.

Code:
<a href="images/image-1.jpg" rel="lightbox" title="my caption">image #1</a>

However I dun think it is possible to use getURL(); for this in flash right?

is there a work around for this? what i am aiming to do is have the user click on an image/mc in my flash

e.g.

Code:
my_mc.onRelease = function() { // Activate lightbox from here };

and have it call the light box up.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Activating Different Audio Files Over Different Frames?

Oct 6, 2009

Recently I bought CS4 as I decided that I wanted to design and create a new website for hosting my music productions, I have used dreamweaver in the past so I am quite familiar with XML etc but I wanted to make something with a little more to it. After talking to quite a few people and reading into it all I found that this would be my best option. After thinking that it was all going to be quite nicely straight forward Im banging my head against a wall in trying to learn and understand Actionscript.

I have currently designed all of the pages, I have used a few tutorials on actionscript 3.0 and have the whole website is functioning, my pages, frames, labels and buttons are all functioning how they should on the timeline and there is around 14 pages..

The problem i've had for around 4 days now is getting all of my audio previewssnippets to work, i have around 20 of these and I need them to be spaced out on about 6 pages (frames) ; Each frame is a different release etc

In each frame, I have 8 buttons 4X play buttons next to each track and 4xStop next to that... play_btn, play_btn2, stop_btn2 and so on..

I've set it so that all I want to do is be able copy the code into the other frames and also the buttons (which are on a different layer) and then all I have to do is enter the filenames in the code below (Track1.mp3, Track2.mp3 etc)

So... it all works fine on my first frame of my release page.. The audio plays and stops for each track, no problems at all.

Now,, the problem happens when i copy the actionscript from my first release page(frame) to the next.. its about 25 duplicate functions, duplicate variables etc

Is there some kind of way I can put all of this into some kind of Class or Tag.. And this code only operates inside this frame and not in the next to cause the duplicate errors? I realise that I could Label every single variable, function and button differently covering all of the frames so that it dosn't cause the duplications to occur but, I am hoping there is some other way around this..

import flash.media.SoundMixer;
//PLAY TRACK 1
var soundReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("track1.mp3");
var sound:Sound = new Sound();

ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading And Activating Music Into Another File

I'm trying to load music into a another file using the loadMovie method. This is my script:

ActionScript Code:
stop();
this.createEmptyMovieClip("musicContainer",20);
audioStatus = false;
trace(audioStatus);
[Code].....

As you can see, first I created an empty clip. Next step was to create a variable named "audioStatus" to know if the button has been pressed or not. It seems I'm doing something wrong because the movie is not loading the music and it-s not detecting my var.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Button Activating Movie Clips?

Mar 11, 2004

Ok so, I have a button called btnEnter and its instance name is enter. Then, I have a movie clip called mcRotatingDot and its instance name is center. These two work so that when the mouse is over the button, the dot blinks. When the mouse is no longer over the button there is a fade in from alpha 0 to 60 of the dot. It all works fine, here is the code that I am using on the movie clip:

onClipEvent (load) {
//this sets the initial properties of our clip
this._xscale = 75;
this._yscale = 75;[code]...........

1)How can I make the movie clip blink with pure action script? And not having to do a stupid tween on the movie clip's timeline.

2)Can a button activate more than one movie clip? Because I am also trying to make the same button (aka. btnEnter, instance name enter) to change the rotation speed of another movie clip to spin faster. Here is the code for the other movie clip called mcRotatingCircle instance name outter:

onClipEvent (load) {
//this sets the initial properties of our clip
this._xscale = 1000;[code]............

Yet the movie clip will not spin faster on roll over. The only thing that I thought could go wrong is that there is another instance of the same movie clip mcRotatingCircle, named middle on the stage. I tried absolute addressing the outter instance, but it just won't work.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Activating A Movie When Text Is Entered?

Apr 28, 2008

I have an .swf file that is going to serve as a login for a new website being built. The .swf will contain a movie symbol and two text fields underneath it. The idea is for the movie symbol to play at different points on its timeline based on what is being typed in the text fields below. For instance, when someone is typing in their user name, the movie file will start at a certain point on the timeline and when they type in their password, it will jump to another point in the timeline. I figure thats the easy part and I would settle for just that.

The complicated part is this: Ultimately, I want the movie symbol to jump to those points on its timeline based on how many characters have been typed into the text fields. For example, if someones user name is "christoper", I need the file to play the movie once someone has typed in "chri" and then jump to the next section of its timeline after they've typed in "stopher", and so on down through the password.

Advanced Button Usage - Activating Two Separate Areas

Apr 14, 2011

Basically I am trying to link two buttons so that two separate areas activate as one button including with rollovers etc. I am creating a flash application that features a series of tabs along the top of the page that when rolled over, will light up. When clicked on, these tabs will take the user to a different page. My problem is that I have an image on the left hand side of the application that features areas of the image that will take the user to the same place. I wish to link the button rollovers so that when the user rolls over the tab, the image will light up and vice versa. I have been unable to find a solution to this myself - the closest I came was making the area one button, but due to the distance the image and tabs are apart, the whole screen becomes one big button!
