thinking of doing a pen pal site. But very simple and easy, it will just contain text. I want to create like my own lash forum People fill in a form, and after submitting, the submitted text will appear immediately on the flash forum. The lash foru will automatically build up posts for others to browse. Will this be possible in flash? Can I also number the posts?

Is it possible to create a forum using Flash?
I have a flash based web****e that has a login section (user & psw) I want to have it work so that when the user enters the user&psw details on the flash site, it then takes you straight to the forum bypassing the phpbb's login form. My code atm is as followed:
Code:
//---------------Setup variables
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
[code]....
Searching for "8kHz" yielded two results but doesn't show the search result titles or the links to get to the post, though it does show links to the forum itself and the user who posted the result. Same results no matter what I searched for, though if I initiate the search initially from the top level Forum, the search results work as expected.
View 1 RepliesIn other words, I have already created the artwork and I have it in my library. how to link it to my website's forum?
I've watched this video a couple of times: [URL] but I must be missing something as the panel tells me that no actions can be applied this object (my button). Yes, I've already converted it into a symbol - movie clip, and named it 'Forum'.
I really don't understand this forum. I'm trying to search for "Flashthusiast.com" in the Flash section, but all I get is a bunch of icons in the left column with a second column that says: "in Flash". No subject line, nothing. Is this a bug? Or, am I seeing something different than others?
Anyhow, when reading about creating in Flash in the user manual, I'm referred to Flashthusiast.com for sample AS3 code for button behaviors, but Norton Internet Explorer classify that site as dangerous. Has anyone visited it recently?? Why would Abode refer me to that site if it is dangerous?
How can I put my fla files , exe format or zip in the forum.
View 2 RepliesI recently made a .swf file which is hosted here [URL] as you can see the hyperlinks work fine and go to the correct sites. My question and impass is that whenever I post this same file as a forum signature it works fine but when I click on the hyperlinks they don't bring up the websites they act like they are dead.
btw the hyperlinks are just Text that I changed to Dynamic text with urls.
I need to send my FLA file to a person who replied to my initial question. How do I add it as an attachment ?
View 6 RepliesI have five text boxes and a dropdown box in my flex application, how can I make the progress bar fill up when there is text in each box, and the dropdown selected. For example, if there is input in three out of five of the boxes and there is a selection in the dropdown, then the progress bar would be 4/6 full.
View 1 RepliesI'm having problems creating a character creation forum, that I've created using ActionScript 2.0 and I've been using the loadVars(), sendandLoad() and many variables to create it. You see, I've tested it but it won't save the characters onto my Angelfire account that I've already created at the start. I've created many things with Flash and I'm a newbie at Dreamweaver, so I'm using ColdFusion to save the information.

View 1 RepliesI would like to point out that I am not an employee of either Comedy Central, The Daily Show or the website. The labels 'Production Assistant' and 'Intern' are just the sites rankings descriptions.There is an assumption by iPad owners, that all Flash websites must be converted to be compatible with the iPad, rather than the iPad should be compatible with existing websites.Is it worth continuing to defend against this assumption? Should we just give in to these people or try to engage them in a discussion, get them to demand Flash support from Apple?
View 2 RepliesI have no idea what to call it or where to start looking, so I am putting it in the generic and hopefully someone can point me to the right forum or area. Here is my project and I am trying to teach myself how to do these things. I had great help in making buttons on here a while back, now I am trying to build an object right in flash. The easiest thing for most to relate to is a computer that is being built from scratch. So, You start with a base picture of an open sided computer with a list of components underneath. By draggin those components to the box, it snaps them in place. You can also remove them the same way. When done, you click a tally button and it shows a list of all the components you added with product numbers.
View 2 Repliesconverting my swf to exe and app. I know that there are several options available. My application will be frequently updated so update feature is essentions for me.
p.s. As another option, I can make app and exe out of a loader app that will load main application module every time it is updated.
my main concern is about build in update feature inside projector eg. Mac app will be able to check for new version of my app automatically...
building a preloader in Flash. It's about pre-loading swf files in the background while the visitor is watching a page. For instance, I have a start page built in HTML. It will have links to various swf-clips. I would like for those swf-clips to start caching immediately once the HTML page is loaded so that there is no (or little) delay once the visitor clicks on any of the links.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to figure out where to get started on a menu like the one found at:There are several links, and as you rollover each of them, it changes the image above them. However, the image above them has links in it as well.I'm completely lost on where to get started as it seems like rolling over opens another page right above it.
View 4 RepliesHOW do I go about doing it?Ive tried...buttonon "over" create to movie clipinside movie clip have my animations and sublink buttonsit works fine, but there's one problem, The hit area of the main button HAS to cover the hidden sublinks, so even if you scrolled your mouse over the bottom of the button (in the invisible area) it will still show since its in the hit area).How can I create a simple nav drop down? I seriously have went through almost all tutorials, both video and text, and nothing has worked! I am using Actionscript 3, or whatever the tutorial says to use.edit: Here is something I'm working on. Its a button, and on the rollover it creates the animation. Obviously it doesnt work, because you cant have a button inside a button, so I don't know the actionscript to do this.
View 2 RepliesBuilding a webpage entirely in Flash??I have to admit that I really like flash.I am using it for about 2 years, but I am still not sure if building a webpage entirely in flash would bee a good idea. In HTML I can't achieve the same look, and feel, on the other hand sacrificing the look for functionality is the last thing I would do.
View 2 RepliesI've taken 32 pictures of an item, on a rotating plate. Then, I removed the background and kept the file in PSD. I imported to library in Flash then created the "picture animation" that shows the item rotating. I want to add button to control the rotation and I wish to add some SPAY area on some of the pictures so, when a user is looking at the item, rotates it at will, some areas will highlight and will provide the user with links to more information.Should I use Firework to set the areas ?then establish their relation in Flashr should I add links and compositions directly in Flash and build everything from there ?
View 2 RepliesI'm having trouble with building iOS applications in flash. I just bought an iPad and want to start building apps for it. I hav done simple apps for iPhone before but nothing too fancy. The problem is, I can build it and compile it fine but when I try to install on my device it comes up with the error saying:
"ITunes: 'APPNAME' failed to install." I can compile it as an iPhone app and it works fine. I'm pretty sure I've got my provisioning right because I have both my iPhone and iPad devices added. Anyone got any ideas of why my apps only work while I compile them as iPhone apps?
I'm using CS5 flash professional to build a swf. I have it publishing to flash 8, actionscript 2. but it will only work with browsers that have 10.1+ plugins, no matter what I try. is there something really obvious that I'm missing? Edit: I'm using swfobject.embed. it looks like this: swfobject.embedSWF("/foo.swf", "myContent", "400", "300", "9.0.0", "/foo.swf", flashvars);

View 1 RepliesI've been tasked with building an interactive map of all the states in the US and just wondering what the best way is to go about this? I know I could build this fairly easily in Flash but one of the requirements is for it to work on an iPhone so obviously that rules Flash out!
Requirements:
Must work across all browsers and handheld devices.
Must be updatable via Wordpress.
Must include a small info box that pops up when each state is hovered.
The look of the map will be designed by us (we'd want complete control of this as we're graphic designers!) so this also rules out a custom Google map.
I've done a search on here and found two examples, the first is exactly the kind of thing we want but is done in flash - example I don't think I'll be able to create popup bubbles when hovering over each state. An example I like is - Transmit's feature section. How was this built and how could I recreate something like that?
Im building for the first time a website with flash (ac3). but Im not a total n00b to flash.My plan is it to creat a main.swf file which holds things like the navigation and the language selector (you can choose "ru" or "eng") and it has a function which loads the subpages.swf (i think its better to make the subpages unique becouse they wont look the same at all) e.g. if I click on the second navibutton it should load the 02.swf inside of the main.swf __and__ destroy the old .swf which was there befor. I dont know how to write this function the best way (addChild / removeChild maybe?), but i know how to addEventListener to the buttons.My second problem is inside of this (e.g. 02.swf) will be a function which fillout the textfields with xml data. So this function needs to get the language var from the main.swf to parse xml with the right language. I know how to do the parsing part. But i dont know how to send a var from main.swf to the page.swf.
View 4 Replieswith the advent of Flash Player 10 and now Adobe's Flash Professional CS5 i was thinking of creating a simple 3d scene consisting of movieclips, without relying heavily on as code or a 3d engine.
A simple scene where a user can interact or travel between the movieclips using their mouse. Now i have built a quick scene in flash cs5 by just creating dummy mcs, the problem is there is no camera control using the tools.
Sure you can select all and transform the mcs at one go in 3d space and add relevant keyframes, but that still doesn't give us any freedom in having an actual 3d camera able to fly through the scene.
Is there any way to create a simple flash 3d scene using library movieclips, with the ability to adjust camera fly settings on mouse movements? That is, not relying too much on as code?
