ActionScript 2.0 :: Deep-Linking With External SWF's?
Nov 12, 2010
how i can achieve deep linking with the external swf import technique? Im using the "Transitions Between External SWF's" tut from Kirupa but am not able to post a link here since im new. I have created a website that has this functionality between sections and would like to apply the deep linking to it.

I'm implementing swfaddress in my project, which starts with a main swf with various menus. When a menu item is clicked, it signals a url change, and the url change loads a corresponding external swf. All works swimmingly here. But... what if I wanted to have another menu from within the loaded external swf, and have that have its own loaded external swfs, url change etc, as well? For example, on my home page, there is a menu item called "news".
Once "news" is clicked, the url changes and loads a "news.swf" into a holder on the main swf. Now, in the "news.swf" there is yet another menu, this one with two buttons: one button says "Article 1" and the other "Article 2" and each would signal a URL change and load "article1.swf" and "article2.swf" respectively when clicked. Is there a way to get the menus on the external swf to communicate with the swfaddress that is happening from within the main swf so that every swf has it's own url address and different events triggered by that change? so the url for article 1 would look something like [URL]

A project requirement is that it be 1 way deeplinkable(a specific query string will load a section within the swf).I have a URLProxy that I use for all external linking. It makes sense to me to put the query string logic in this proxy. So in the constructor, I check for a querystring, and then send a notification if it equals a predefined value.One problem with this is that I'd like to predefine this query string key value I am checking against in an external xml file. So another proxy, loads-parses this config xml, then the URL proxy checks against this.

If there is a link to a section of a flash website from an HTML and/ or another Flash Movie... is there a way that the link could load the next Flash movie and then go to a specific keyframe or, even better, allow a custom animation to play when the user goes from the link on the first page to the "deep link" within the Flash movie?I can try to clarify the problem and question if I have to. Curious if this can be done and if anyone out there has had any success.Have used named anchors before to allow Windows toggling and bookmarking of Flash sections... however, this would have to work on ALL platform browsers and as info is somehow passed into the new Flash movie it seems different altogether

I want to find a relatively easy solution for deep dynamic linking within flash. There are plenty of tutorials out there, so please don't jump to the conclusion that I haven't done a search. What I am looking for is a tutorial that should theoretically be easy to follow for someone who is a non-coder.

I have swfaddress (2.4) working fine on my site - the back button works, I can copy and paste urls and be taken to the correct page, etc.BUT, if I copy a url, say and paste it into a new browser window, the site always just loads to the home page after the preloader. What am I missing? Do I somehow need to check the url when the page loads?

I have a Flex app I built. It uses the BrowserManager class to listen for changes in the # part of the URL. When a change is made to the hash my application updates accordingly so you can link directly to a state of the application. Also inside my programming when a user clicks something, all I do is use the BrowserManager to update the # and then my listener will apply the correct changes once its finished. I believe this is the best practice way to doing this in Flex.
I have some issues though. When using the Back button in FF or IE, it gets "stuck". for example if the hash is like #state4 clicking the back button will take you to #state3 then #state2 but sometimes get stuck where you can be on #state3 click the back button, see it flicker to #state2 real quick then change back to #state3 preventing you from going back any further in your history.

I have sucessfully built a swfaddress site that works fine when you are navigating about, but if you go to a new url and then use back to return to the site, it goes to the correct frame, but the movie behaves as if it has lost some of the settings I made like stage.ScaleMode, and some of the functions and variables I defined on the main timeline are suddenly gone. The same thing happens when I paste in a direct link. The movie successfully goes to the page, but anything I've defined on the main 'actions' layer doesnt take any more.

I'm working on a portfolio website of a friend using AS 3 and after a lot of reading and testing I have implemented deep linking for the main categories of the website. Now I need to figure out how to do it for the 'level 2 and level 3' content, for example a category and a project.
I have thought of this. Let's say this is our string of swfaddress: /portfolio/illustration/freelance-city
I would use a String.split like this:
var addr:String = new String("/portfolio/illustration/freelance-city");
var splitted:Array = new Array();
splitted = addr.split("/");
I will check: if the array is 1 long, do only level 1 stuff if 2 level 1 and 2 (go to correct main category and portfolio category) if 3 do all levels (go to correct main category, portfolio category and project) Right now, the array will have 4 items (it should be 3).
is this a reliable way to work for deep linking multiple levels? Any general tips for deep linking this kind of content? And how can you make sure the string splits 'after' the delimiter? To make sure the stuff before the first "/" isn't counted.

I am trying to implement Deep Linking on a Flash site using AS2. I have done it many times but I don't know what happens this time. I tried everything but Back/Forward Browser buttons don't work. When I refresh the page [URL]everything works fine.
I put SWFAddress.setValue() on every button in my movie. The buttons are in another movie on the stage. This works fine too. The problem comes from the SWFAddress.onChange() function. I put it in the last frame of the movie. So the movie plays and then checks if the address has been changed. When clicked for the first time, the movie plays and then goes to the correct part of the site. When you click on another button and then use the Back Button the address changes but nothing happens with the movie.

I have my test site at alenelias.com/home2.html and I'm using an old AS2 class for the buttons to do the up, over, hover, selected states.When you click the back button on the browser, the selected state doesn't change and I can't figure out how to fix this and it is the most important problem here.The title of the pages has the forward slashes as well and tried to change it with no luck.And third if I keep clicking back, once I reach the intro page (loader in a different scene), if I press forward, the url changes but the page does not. Not a huge deal but would love to solve that as well.I recently looked at a form (blog.deconcept.com/2006/10/25/swfaddress/) and noticed this url spirituc.com which is very similar to my site but has the problem(s) fixed.URL...

How can I programmatically click the browser's Back button from within my Flex application. I'm using deep linking to allow the user to navigate back/forth inside my application. I want this to work when BACKSPACE is clicked inside the application as well, but Flex captures BACKSPACE and the browser doesn't get the event. I don't want to implement browsing history myself within the application, naturally. Can I send BACKSPACE to the containing browser?

I am having difficulty making the buttons of the 3rd level load the final set of external swfs and keep doing the smooth transitions they are supposed to, with midframes and outros. Somehow I am messing up the paths. I have several buttons in each level and they all work fine except the very last level.Below are a characteristic string of button AS for each level:
Main timeline:
on (release) {
if (_level0.currMovie == undefined) {
_level0.currMovie = "firm";
menu.loadMovie("firm.swf");
[code]....
All buttons inside assoc.swf are not working. I played around with the paths, but obviously I am missing something very simple and very ellusive about pathing. If I change the path in firm.swf so that _root is _lever0, then THOSE buttons stop working.

The accordion i created works by recreating a single movie clip as the frame/holder for each and every 'tab' the accordion has.Now I want to have seperate links for each 'tab'. which means, at the 1st tab for example, if you click anywhere on the content area, it will take u to page #a.If you go to the 2nd tab, click, it will take u to page #b.
the current flash file has holders in it in order to let it load the xml data. such as the tab titles, content etc. they are also reproduced in AS hence there is only one instance of each in the FLA.I have created an area which is TO BE the "clickable" area on each page. But i do not know what else to do from here...

I googled it and found that in 2006 someone was trying to do the same exact thing I am and suceeded, but didn't give much detail for a beginner like me to figure out. . I am using xml to call different swf files. What i want to do is create a link in my fla file. Or my xml to call a different swf file into the same page. Pretty much like the main menus do, but I want to create a link to it inside of the text. For instance I have an swf file called members. You click on members on the left it directs you to the members swf file switch on the right. Now that swf page is reading from my xml. At the end of everyone's brief profiles i want to put a link that says more info and it directs to a different swf that has a more indepth profile of that person, but loading in the same window as all my other swf pages of course. The person that did it before said he used actionscript to do this.

I have solved my remote linking from an external html, to specific swf frame problem. But now, as usual another problem has reared its ugly head. I have a button(s) with a spotlight animation effect in the "over state". It works fine on the "home" page, smooth and clean, but when you link to a frame in the timeline, once in that frame the spotlight effect stills shows up when mouseover, but becomes erratic and very jittery.[URL].. Once there, if you click on about, events, or news, and load any of those pages/frames, you should see the spotlight flicker on mouseover on all buttons
