I am trying to call an external .swf and it does not seem to be working. I have read a few other posts with no luck. I have a small calendar that flips and at the bottom i have a link to another. So i put an empty MovieClip on the following frame. the button directs me to the empty frame where a pre-loader should start, but nothing happens. here is the code i last tried:

I am getting a compiler error saying "Statement must appear within on/onClipEvent handler" I am also trying to link back to the original .swf from the loaded .swf would anyone know how to do that?

I am just learning Flash. I'm using Flash CS4, However I am using Actionscript 1.0/2.0. I have a main page with just simple buttons, and such. My question is, I need to load a swf within my main page. I have a sqaure in the center of my page that I want to load a swf in. I made a rectangle using the rectangle tool, and converted the rectangle into a symbol so that actions may be placed within it. I want to load a file called News.swf within the rectangle. I can't find any code to do this that doesnt have compiler errors.
I found one code: News.loadMovie("News.swf"); when I put just that in the Actions field, and I export the movie I get the error: Statement must appear within on/onClipEvent handler
I just want to load News.swf in the actions tab within a symbol.

I made a flash movie with different layers, on the first layer i add a action script by pressing F9 stop(); & as it works it stop movie.
now on the next line of the same layer i write this
onClipEvent (mouseUp) {
new_mov.parent.play();
}
But it shows me error that its for movie instance, & if i create a movie & then copy my frames & enter it in the move it said you cant enter symbol inside symbol

First here is my code:
[Code]...
Simple really. This event handler tells 3 different movie clips to play forwards and backwards depending if the main movie clip has been rolled over. This all works fine... what I can't seem to work out is when the movie clip is clicked I would like this event to stop and become disabled.

I have been asked by a local web development company to code some flash banners for use with there banner ad site they are doing. I have been sent a banner to add the actionscript and also the actionscript as well. What I have is a fla doc with a button that covers the whole banner. Then on the banner I have this actionscript:-
this.masterButton_but.onRelease = function(){ if (root.Hyperlink != null){ getURL(root.Hyperlink); }else if(root.clickTag != null){ getURL(root.Hyperlink); }else{ getURL("http://www.greatrun.org/Events/Event.aspx?id=3"); } }
When I test it the compiler errors and says in the description "Statement must appear within on handler".

I would like to use variables in my flash app. The app is quite simple, has many buttons, and on each of those buttons I have a simple script: on-rollover and on-release. For both actions I use the same value, which I want to put in a variable. The following script results in an error message: Statement must appear within on handler. When I have to declare the variable inside the on-handler, I have to declare it twice, which makes it useless as I have to enter the value twice. How can I get this working?
country = "uk"
on (rollOver){ gotoAndPlay(country)}
on (release){ getURL("/"+country+"/", "_self");}

sw1 = text input
asw1 = text input
My problem is that is sw1 when I put in "188" it gives me "28.73" instead of "209.43". If I put in "2" it gives me "28.73" instead of "21.78". So it really doesn't work. My other "If" "Else If" statement works.
Code:
protected function sw1_changeHandler(event:TextOperationEvent):void{
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
if (sw1.text <= String ( Number("18.325")) && sw1.text >= String ( Number("1"))){
(asw1.text = String ( Number("21.78")));
} else if (sw1.text <= String ( Number("24.83")) && sw1.text >= String ( Number("18.326"))){

I have made up a snakes and ladders drag and drop board to use with interactive whiteboard in my class. It is only 2 frames, one with the intro and the other with the board. The squares with snakes or ladders are movieclips (target1, target2 etc). The contestant images are movieclips. Which drag and drop, when they hit the target they move. It was working fine, but now every time I test it I get the following error message. I don't know how to solve it as I have looked everywhere.
Scene=Scene 1, Layer=Layer 1, Frame=2: Line 1: Statement must appear within on/onClipEvent handler
stop();
I'll try to attach the fla but last time it didn't work, so I'll give some of the code below. On the 2nd Frame I have stop();

I have tried this tutorial at: [URL]. I'm using Flash CS4 on the MAC. But when I run it, nothing happens, When I run the test movie I get an error: 1087: Syntax error: extra characters found after end of program. OnClipEvent (load) {
Also, it doesn't say in the tutorial, so I created a new layer first and then dragged the snowflake symbol onto the stage and then added the script to it. (now there are 2 layers on my timeline). Although it doesn't say to make a new (2nd) layer. Surely you can't do everything on the same layer, because you need to add 2 different scripts which you can't do to one layer.

Trying to implement the new FP 10.1 Global error handler into my projects but no matter what I do any uncaught error will still show up the Exception window (both in debug and release versions of the SWF). All I want to do is to prevent these popups but instead send a message to my logger. Here's my code ...
EDIT: I simplified the code now. Could somebody do me a favor and test the following class and see if it's works for him? Because it's doesn't for me! ...
package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.UncaughtErrorEvent;

I seem to be having a recurring problem attaching events to a button i have created within 2 other movieclips.I get the following error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
So it looks like it can't find the button, in order to attach the event listener. The question is why? I am attaching a similar event to a button on the main timeline and that works fine. So it looks like a scope issue, but I am referring to it properly.
code below:
Code:
import flash.net.navigateToURL;
import flash.net.URLRequest;

I can't quite figure out the small problem with the code. It seems to just bypass the first requirement of the if statement when I do type in the proper input and go straight to the else statement.

I dont want to copy the code from the first into the second and the first and second into the third.
My mind isn't working and there is probably an extremelly simple way to get this working.
I know I could used functions but for some reason it stops the instance referencing working: _root["bullet"+j] doesnt work in a function.

The Flash movie contains 2 Text files, one Component button, and 1 component checkbox.The purpose of the application is to load an XML file(works)Populate 2 text fields with information from the XML file(works)Compare the two text fields, if they contain the same information then the checkbox, via AS is told to be selected. (Heres the problem);
Heres the code:
Code:
runCode_btn.onPress = function() {
data_xml = new XML();
data_xml.ignoreWhite = true;
data_xml.onLoad = function(success) {
[code]....
The idea behind this app is that its an electronic form. The user fills it out, the information is then sent to a newly created XML file, months later the open the XML file in flash, and Flash fills out text fields and check and or unchecks Checkboxes based on the XML data.CheckBoxes are mandatory.But I don't see how I'll be able to use them if i can't create and condition statements based on the loaded Data.
