I just made a flash news scroller where the news headlines are dynamic text and have different urls provided in the link section. But when I click on any of them, they all go to the first link only.

View 1 RepliesAnyone know of any good classes or functions that will do this? I've found some regexes but what I need is to pass the string to a method and have it return the same string, but with urls turned blue and turned into hyperlinks. Seems like a fairly common task, but I can't find anything.

View 6 RepliesI've got a flash file loaded on more than 150 sites. The button in the file currently goes to a single URL, but we are developing individual URLs for the link for each site. How can I do this in one flash file? I don't want to create 150 flash files with different links. Can I variables or something?
View 3 RepliesHey. I am having problems getting some movieclips to link to different URLs on release. I am able to get them to animate, and I am able to get them to link to an html page seperately, but I can't get both functionalities to work at the same time (animate and geturl) and it is driving me crazy!! I've tried putting the actionscript in the instance object, in the action layer, and other things and nothing seems to work!?

View 5 RepliesI have an AS3 flash movie and each page is a new frame. On my pages are dynamic scrollable text boxes that I created with the text tool. I would like to be able to make a piece of text a link (ex. click here for prices) so that it will direct the view to another page (label). I cannot figure out how to do so.
View 2 RepliesSo, I have tons o' buttons that each need to link to unique URLs, and I'd like to minimize coding as much as possible. The code below works, but I will have to do this about 50 times.Can I associate the URLs with the instance names of the buttons and then reuse the same function?In the event you didn't already guess, I'm a newbie to AS3

function capPage (evtObj:MouseEvent) { trace("clicked") var url:String = "http://www.mydomain.com"; var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);

Program: Adobe Clash CS5.1Explanation:When you select a text field, under Options in the Properties there is the field "Link". Normally when you want to add a link you put the URL in a text box, then assign it a URL in the Properties...I am using a .xml file to pull up information, is there a code I can put in to the "Link" field in Properties to link to the URL that is entered by the .xml file?Example:The dynamic text field in flash displays the URL entered in the .xml, which is the URL for the Google homepage. The user clicks the link and it takes them to Google.

I am trying to create a hyperlink to an external website within a dynamic text field. Basically, I need it to work like this: My text will read, "Here is an example. Click here to see a larger version." I need the "click here" part to be a hyperlink. But since I already have all of this text within a dynamic text field, I can't figure out how to make that one part of the text a hyperlink. I've searched online for an answer to this but can only find information on how to create a hyperlink from the entire text field or to add a button hyperlink. I don't want to do these things.

I am trying to link to link several buttons to a dynamic text box.I am trying to populate the dynamic text box with specific data called from an external text file by each button.
In other words:
Button 1 ---> text file1----->Dynamic Text Box
Button 2 ---> text file2----->Dynamic Text Box
I have searched everywhere, but cannot seem to find anything specific.
Does anyone know of any tutorials I could try?
I think this is a relatively easy fix but I have looked around for the answer and have not been able to find it. I am using a dynamic scrollable html text box. I would like to add links. The only problem is that the double forward slashes (//) in http:[url]....makes the following text become a commment.I have a dynamic text box with an instance name of myText and in my AS layer I have:
Code:
myText.htmlText ="the text for this scrollable text box,
which is html formatted";
If I try to add a html link, obviously it doesn't work.The only workaround that I know of uses exteral .txt files.I would prefer to use those since I have not been able to get my scrolling bar with tweening to load properly with external .txt files.
I have a text box that will be updated by my client. I want them to be able to include links in their text, but I really don't want to require my "not-so-computer-savy" client to have to remember to type this out everytime they need to add a link[code]...
View 2 RepliesI'm wondering if it is feesible to create a dynamic text box with like a contents sections at the beginning of the box that once you click a link it will scroll down to the appropriate info withing that dynamic text.

I have a .txt file with html code inside of it that loads into my swf. i've managed to create a link (ain't i the genius) but the problem is that if the link ponits to another website e.g
a href="http://www.something.com/file.mp3" it just opens the file in the browser.
is it possible to get it to download the file instead?

I've created a flash animation where I am getting dynamic URLs from XML.Now, I need to use clickTAG in order to track the number of clicks.
I've never used the clickTAG thing, any pointer will be really helpful for me?
One more question is that Is it possible to use clickTAG and dynamic URLs together?
I'm currently creating a video player to play files from a different server.
We have chosen to use a token authentication system to check where the files are from. This is a one number authentication code.
We can link to the files by going to a dynamic url such as...

The server has to recieve this token when you try to connect the movie or it won't allow it.
I've tried adding it as a dynamic url but ns.play() doesn't seem to recognise it at all that way, unless I'm really missing something with the parameters.
i'm attempting to resolve a problem with targeting. i would like to target multiple iframes from a link that has been pulled into a flash document. basically, the link needs to load a title and an mov file. the mov file has to be loaded into an iframe, but the title could be loaded into another dynamic text field.. i'm using a text file that is loaded into a dynamic text field. the link within the text file currently looks like this:
<a href="video/AlzyGramp.mov" target="videowindow" onClick="parent.titles.location.href = 'alzy.html'; return true;">Alzy Gramps</a>
but it doesn't work. is there a problem with flash htmltext reading javascript? i even installed the flashjavascript gateway.
I am wondering how to "link" any sort of text file (.txt or .doc) to a dynamic text box where once the swf file is played the text shows up. In all of the examples I have seen on here you have had to hit a button to load the info once the swf is loaded.
View 1 RepliesI have several SWFs pulled in at runtime from different domains (we're using a CDN). There are some shared fonts within the SWFs. I'm trying to minimize file sizes as much as possible, so that means either not embedding the fonts in any of those SWFs and setting all their TextFormats at runtime. That's very impractical, and it would be easy to miss some of them.
The other, better option is to use runtime shared libraries to pull in the fonts, but that requires either an absolute URL (goes against the concept of using a CDN), or a relative URL (defeats the purpose of using RSLs in the first place since those resources would be downloaded several times anyway). Ideally i'd like to be able to tell each SWF at runtime where to pull in the fonts, and give them all the same, dynamic URL. I can't find anyone who's encountered a similar situation, so i'm not sure if this can or can't be done, but most AS3 problems i find are solved here, so i'm hoping someone knows a good solution for this.
I have a flash template and I can not add urls to the menu text.
View 1 Replies am using Carousel 3, and have my images working properly, and even the application in general. What i'd like to do is embed urls in the text, however i'm finding the (") issue preventing this from happening in an element in the XML file. Initially I thought there was a way around using the quotes so that I could provide links in the text. what i'm trying to accomplish is this:
<icon image="icon1.png" tooltip="This is the Tooltip" content="This is the content and a link ((http://www.gotoandlearnflash.com)) that i'd like to make clickable for a user." />
I'm loading copy from an XML doc. How can I make allI can't put href statements in the XML as the XML is actually pulling Twitter postings.
