ActionScript 2.0 :: Changing Menubar Link - Videos Link On The Menu Bar Go Straight To My Youtube Channel
Jul 20, 2009
I am new to Flash. I bought a template online a couple weeks ago, and for the most part have made all the changes to personalize the page. The page is for wedding videography, and came with a Videos section. However, I do not like the template video player, and would like to have the Videos link on the menu bar go straight to my youtube channel rather than to the flash player. Primarily all changes to the template have been made in a text.txt file, rather than the flash file itself. My question is, how could I change the link on the main page to route to my youtube channel? Here's what it looks like in the text file:

I am new to Flash and am working on a web template I purchase online. I have a flash file called flash.fla I'm working with in Flash CS4 (trial). Of the five main menu buttons, I would like to redirect the 4th (the "videos" tab) to a youtube channel I've set up. I've located where the 4th button is in my .fla file. It's called B4. I double clicked on it, which opens it up in the timeline. There's 4 little objects in the timeline: b, b, t1, and t2.b is a frame, as is the 2nd b, and both t1 and t2 are documents. The only one I can open up in ActionScript is the 2nd B. I choose the GetURL from Script Assist, and put in my desired address, as followsI then close out ActionScript, and Export it as an Image File. I name it flash.swf to replace the .swf with the same name on my server. When I publish the new changes, the page just says Menu. If I click on that,
I need to open up a page within "youtube" from a clip used in a Flash movie. I have no problem with how to go about this it is just that with IE it won't let me open the link automatically - I get the "Pop up" warning spiel before the site can be opened. Is there any way I can do this seamlessly, from the movie, without requiring users to authorise security checks?
i want to add new Menu in flash IDE and i want to add inside the adobe flash menu. How i can add new menu in menubar and new menu item inside the help menu. is it possible to do this things if yes then which language i have to use for this. what is way to start development and what is the .MXP file and how to create this .MXP file.
I have an animation that loops and has different images come up with certain elements on the screen that remain the same throughout the movie. Depending on the image that is being displayed, the url of the link assigned to one of the constant elements changes with the code that I posted below.
The problem occurs when the movie loops because the URL of the constant is supposed to go back to the first link (just like everything else loops and starts at the beginning) but it remains as the last url that was declared.
Here are the three blocks of code I am using for the links, truth is the instance name of the button. These code snippets are arranged in their own "actions" layer on my timeline
First URL truth.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onMouseClick); function onMouseClick(e:MouseEvent):void { var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http:../pages/calculate.html");
I have trying to use this sample FLA from google to embed youtube videos in my flash doc but, when I publish the file it comes up blank with no errors.
I wanted to know if this is possible. On my site I want to play youtube videos from my account from youtube. Basically, there will be an empty text box. Users will type in some text. Click on a button to search and play a random video based off tags associated with a video from my youtube account with the words from the text box? And if they did the same search it wouldn't play the same video again?
im trying to embed an swf file in facebook. To cut the story short, the swf im trying to embed is loaded fine but stops at preloader stage (0% of 1) and is not progessing as if it has missing link and couldnt locate something (the files struscture is one main swf file; index.swf loads other 5 swf),But, when i tried to load it up directly from browser, it works fine. I have been advised that changing the link path to absolute between the index.swf and 1.swf, 2.swf etc would solve the problem.
My questions will be:
-how do i change this path, because i couldnt seem to find any link that reflects the connection between those files?
-Is there any feature in flash that would be able to show this link rather than diggin up every symbol?
-If changing the path wouldnt solve the problem, what could be the reason this error is happening?.
How to change a link inside the flash element? I have SWF file with set a link inside and I want to change to mine on the website. This thing I need to control the advertisment system.Trying this, but not working:
<style> #content { position: absolute; z-index:2;
[code]....
But you need everytime to put top, left, margin-bottom parameters. Can someone modify it to make working correct without pointing top, left, margin-bottom parameters?
i made a video player with the xml playlist , it's a video channel indeed, it's embed swf in html. but my boss would like me to put a link on the web, when user click the link, it would directly play the specific video inside the video channel. is it possible to do it without server side script but javascript?
I have a datagrid with different types of columns, like I have checkboxes, combo boxes and text Inputs as the column types. Now I want one of the column type to a link, with the label "view". All the rows in that column are link with the same label "View" and on clicking it, I want a Pop up window to be opened?
I didn't know how to bring a link in the datagrid. So used the Text control to display the "View" label. Now If I click this item, "View" in the datagrid, I want the Pop up function, i.e.,defectCommentsPopUp() to be called.
When using the "textFormat.selectable = false", the text which I send to the freshly generated text field still is selectable. How to turn the selectivity of a dynamic generated link? Note: .selectable is not documented in the property summary for the TextFormat object. But does turn blue in the editor.
i am developing a piece for our home page that has three buttons below what's essentially a picture frame. the buttons work. it's the picture frame that doesn't.i have 4 ads that will rotate, each up for 250 frames. they fade out and in over each other. each has an instance name...ad1_link, ad2_link, etc. the idea is that as we have new products, etc, we'll swap in a new picture and remake the .swf.when i ran the code initially i got an 1120: access of undefined property error for pictures 2-4. no problems with the first one. after numerous attempts to find a solution, i decided to load all four movie clips at the same time, hiding them using the alpha property set to 0.i get no more errors, but now no matter which movie clip is visible, only the link to movie clip 4 (ad4_link) works. i need each clip to have it's own link, obviously, and for each to go away as the clip does.[code]
i have created a flash animation for my homepage, i want to make part of that flash animation a "enter" button so when clicked would go to my page 2 on my website.
i have never done any script before and only used dreamweaver on a mac. is there an easy way to create this button to link to my next page and to stop my file to stop looping?
I've created a flash naviagation menu and currenlly my links will open a pop up window. I don't want this. I want it to open the link in the same window. Here is the code for one of the links:
var home:URLRequest = new URLRequest("index.html"); function homeDown(event:MouseEvent):void { navigateToURL(home,"_self");} button_home.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,homeDown);
I have created a small application which takes it's information from an xml file and displayes it in a news ticker which is a flash Flash AS2 application. tell me the correct way to format the link tag in the xml if there is a standard when wanting to state a target for the link? The xml file currently looks like:
So what I want to do is to be able to open the link in a taget=_blank window however adding that to the end of the url does not currently work.I have added a comma and also tried using a space, space and encompassing in quotes but none are working.
i created my subMenu buttons fine, however i only know how to link them to a picture/url address, my goal is to have the user click the subMenu button and open the image or page right below the menu bar in the "stage" area of flash. I read about IFrames but i'd rather create the whole site in flash .Here is the code for my subMenu...
btn_34th.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClickHandler); function buttonClickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void { navigateToURL(new URLRequest("images/34th.jpg")); trace("I'm Clicked!");
Again, this works fine, i just want to have the image take up the "white" space on the stage area, very similar to an IFrame.
I am editing a Flash file and I need to change a mailto: link. When I edit that link to change the email address I get several instances of error #1056. why such an arbitrary change would break everything .
Edit: Here are the errors:
ReferenceError: Error #1056: Cannot create property baseBackground on com.***t.csg.view.CSGWebsite. ReferenceError: Error #1056: Cannot create property backgroundHolder on com.***.csg.view.CSGWebsite. ReferenceError: Error #1056: Cannot create property backgroundMergeHolder on com.***.csg.view.CSGWebsite[code].........
I'd like to make sort of gallery with previous/next buttons. And on each image you'd have circles/link over important parts of the image.So each image wold have these circles on different locations. Question: how can I make that dynamically? And that it's not to complicated for the editor of the site? One way would be to write in XML x and y positions.
Im trying to make a menu for a web page using menubar and menu components, is ther any way of making os specifing that the menu can get drawn out of the canvas, since i need that the bar is thin for getting in a space betwen to image headers.

I have a drop down menu in AS2 Flash. I want to be able to link to any scene, any frame from this one menu.All I want to do is to go back to the root and then to go to the relevant scene/frame. Inside my menu (a series of buttons inside a movieclip), the code on one particular button is:
I have a problem with link "contact", when i click on it i can`t see a loading page "photo2". Maybe this problem is with function animateOn. I attach a file.
okay so i am trying to create a menu system that contains 6 buttons and positioned in the center of the stage . the button originates from the Library as a single MovieClip and positioned dynamically but how do i add a roll over and link each 6 buttons to 6 different websites?
I made 4 short 2 minutes SWF "presentation movies" that I want to burn onto BizCard CDs and mail to clients and prospective clients. I created a menu with the four items to link tot he movies. I ASSUMED I would be able to do this but I cannot link from my four menu items to the movies. I have tried everything but I end up with looping or syntax errors.
