ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash Form Not Working Inside A Movieclip
Jul 14, 2004
I created a flash form which collected data and sent it to an asp file which inturn sent it to me as an email. (for my website).
The form worked fine, as a standalone swf file, BUT now its not working since i did this:
instead of running it as a standalone file, im now trying to run it inside a main, bigger swf file, as a movieclip.Its running inside a movieclip called 'Movieclipcontainer.' And as a result its no longer working!
I havent changed my actionscript, and im thinking I probably need to! but i dont know what changes need to be made. Here is the actionscript on the form:
onClipEvent(data){
// show welcome screen
gotoAndPlay("brochure", 46);
}

when user clicks on Add button, then a pop up button will be opened with certain form elements (like textinput, date field, text area).. When i used 'TAB' inside this form,it is not working.I found in couple of Questions / forums that we need to create an instance of FocusManager and then bring/activate focus for the pop up.But still i didn't see the tab working inside the form.In order to tab order working inside a pop up, what steps we need to follow.
I tried using focusmanager and property like tabfocusenabled, tabenabled and also added taborder inside each form element.Iam using Flash Builder 4.5 and using spark components for development.Is there any workaround for this problem?

I have two flash files (say screenOne.fla and gameA.fla). After importing the main symbol of screenOne.fla into gameA.fla as a movieclip symbol (call it screenOneSymb), the simple buttons in the instance of screenOneSymb do not work. By "do not work" I mean they have no rollover, not mouse action, nothing. If I go into the edit "screenOneSymb" in gameA.fla and turn on "Control->enable simplebuttons" the buttons will work while in edit "screenOneSymb" but not on the main flash stage. I've worked around it, but this is driving me crazy. How do I import multi-layered movieclip symbols (with buttons and animations, etc, etc) and get them to work out of the box?

I'm editing a flash site that needs a multi video player. I've already added a few other features to the site, so know the drill now... This video player just doesn't load the external files to it. I'm doing exactly the same thing I did with the other elements, but this doesn't seem to want to work. I've triple checked the spelling of 'config.xml' and even tried changing the action script settings to frame 2, which just makes all the preloaders spin around!

This is my first time coding a website using ActionScript. So far everything has went very well, I designed the website in Photoshop, and imported to Flash CS5. Then I cleaned everything up, and started adding navigation to the various pages using buttons.The website is constructed in a very simple manner, there are five main pages and they are connected by buttons on a static navigation bar (the first page, home, doesn't have a corresponding button). Then there are nine sub pages, that each contain information on a character of the game, and are connected to corresponding buttons in the 'Character' layer/MovieClip. My four menu buttons (Story, The World, Characters, Extras) all navigate correctly without problems.
The problem arises because inside my Characters page (a movie clip) are nine buttons, each linking to a different page. These buttons should bring the timeline to the frame specified, but when the buttons are clicked nothing happens. I've spent hours searching for a solution to this, but with no avail, and I have a feeling the answer is prettysimple.gotoAndStop("gowang", "Scene 1");line in the Gowang character button function with:MovieClip(root).gotoAndStop("gowang");

For some reason my flash file is not calling a php file and sending out an email including the data entered in the flash file.
I've taken out other movie clips and graphics to make this easier on everyone.
Fla File: [URL]
PHP File (in txt format for read-ablity): [URL]
Note; As you can see I've used _root.movieclip, I've tried it with out _root and still no luck.

I have decided to give these components in flash a try and can't get it to work.I am using the following components, a Checkbox(instance name chkPrivacy), TextInput(instance name txtName) and a ComboBox(instance name cboName) on my stage.I have a "submit" button that I made.On my submit button, there is the following code:
Code:
on (release) {
cmdSubmit_onRelease();
}
On frame 1 of my timeline I have the following code:
Code:
stop();
cboName.addItem('');
cboName.addItem('Bill');
cboName.addItem('Tom');
[code]....
When I try to submit, I get an error like it could not find the file form.php+txtName=undefined+cboName..... something like that.I dont know how to get that checkbox thing working to send a variable out to my form.php

I've designed a site with 2 forms that use PHP. One has 3 form fields (name, email, message) which I've called 'samples'. The other has one field where an email address is submitted called 'email' for a newsletter sign up, and the pages jump to frames once the data is sent. Admittedly I've used a tutorial for this, but haven't changed anything other than the PHP file names and everything associated with these files in flash in the actions panel.I've assigned this code to the send buttons
on (release) { form.loadVariables("/samples.php", "POST");}
AND have added this to the MovieClip containing the Form fields
onClipEvent(data){ _root.nextFrame();}
The problems i'm having are that all the data isn't being received correctly. So the message form isn't working, it's only sending the first field. The newsletter form is using the samples.php file not the email.php. And secondly, where Flash should jump to the next frame once the form has been submitted, it's actually jumping to the end frame (stop actions on all frames).

I'm a total begginer in flash and action script, I do have some knowledge in other programming languages.By trying to help a friend I added a contact form in his company website, that was made by someone else.his site is full flash with a index frame that loads several pages.After I built the new contact.swf and tested locally and also hosted by accessing it straight from the browser and embeded I tried to replace it with the old contact.swf that had no contact form.During the tests, everything was fine but when included in the site the form is not functioning.The form has a few rules that prevent empty fields with a green text warning. when I access it embeded separatelly in a web page it works, when I access it loaded by index.swf it does nothinh even if I press the submit button.So I assume the problem is in the index.swf action script.the button that loads the contact page has this code:
on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay(2);
}

On the stage I have a movieclip called mc_back. I also have a movieclip on the stage called mc_content. Now, inside mc_content I have a bunch of code and some of it adds, or should add, an EventListener to mc_back as well as a a function that works when mc_back is pressed.
So basically, all code is written inside mc_content and some of it needs to interact with mc_back.
how to target mc_back from inside mc_content. Using stage.mc_back or root.mc_back doesn't work and Google should be my friend, but in this particular problem, it's acting more like my enemy.

I have two movieclips, one loads an image, I resize that mc and add it in a bigger movieclip which has to be resized too. My problem is that that the inner movieclip doesn't resize the way I want although I've tried many variants of the sequence of the commands. I've also taken into account something that I read that an empty mc resizes strangely but it didn't change anything.
that's the code:
loader_mc.x=0;
loader_mc.y=0;
cont_mc.x=1440;
[Code]....
red mc is the outer one but the sizes of the inner are not right it should be about one third of the outer but it's about two thirds. same with the height.
All I want is to be able to resize them independenlty. with the outter beeing bigger than the inner

I'm trying to create a movieclip object that contains another movieclip that continuously loops. My current problem is, no matter what I try, the embedded movieclip will not play inside the one containing it. It would be significantly more work to design the looping animations in actionscript than through using the IDE, so I would prefer not to have to dynamically create these loops.

I have a movieclip called Inquire.fla.In this movieclip i have a form and a button.The form is made up of 4 text fields.... name, email, phone, and message. Each has been given variable names. I converted the 4 text fields to a movieclip, and gave it the instance name "form".I back out to the main scene, click on the form movie clip and give it the actionscript:
onClipEvent(data){
_root.nextFrame();
}
I also have a button that is on the main scene. It has been given the actionscript:
on(release) {
form.loadVariables("email.php", "POST");
}
I then created email.php using dreamweaver with the following code:
<?php
$sendTo = "adamjcormier@hotmail.com";
$subject = "My Flash site reply";[code]....
The movie Inquire.swf is an external movieclip that is loaded into my main Index.swf. I upload the Inquire.swf, Inquire.html and email.php onto the 1and1.com server. When i view my webpage and fill it out.... absolutely nothing happens.

I have a Form with several FormItems and one of those include an mx:DateField. I am not sure how I should bind the DateField values. I have tried the following which none work:
<mx:DateField yearNavigationEnabled="true" text="@{dateValue}"/>
<mx:DateField yearNavigationEnabled="true" selectedDate="{dateValue}"/>
Now eventually I am trying to store/retrieve the date as a string in the db.
