ActionScript 2.0 :: Making Whole SWF A Link?
Mar 18, 2011
Flash newbie here. I wanted to create a basic flash countdown widget to use on a site I run so I started googling and found a template I liked. After messing around with it and whipping up a quick background in Photoshop, I got something that looked decent. The template uses Action Script 2.0, but it seems to work ok. I went through it and customized the date and countdown text color so I don't have to use any variables in the embed code.
The problem I am facing now is I want the whole flash file to be a link in case someone else takes it and decided to embed it on their site, it at least links back to mine. I put an invisible rectangle over the whole project and inserted this AS

The code is the following:
BTN_FACEBOOK.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, FacebookClick);
function FacebookClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
var getFacebook:URLRequest = new URLRequest("[URL]");
navigateToURL(getFacebook);

Trying to make it so when you click anywhere on the flash file, it loads a specific website. It works when I go to File > Preview > Flash, but if I try and preview in html it doesn't navigate anywhere. My actionscript is:
Code:
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onMouseClick);
function onMouseClick(e:MouseEvent):void {

I am pulling my hair out trying to make my simple flash file link to a URL and nothing I have tried will work. I am making a transparent box on the top layer of my file, making it a movie clip and adding the code
on (press){
getURL("http://www.trimergence.com/staging/news.html");
}
The action says it has no errors, but when I export the move, my cursor turns to a hand but goes no where when I click.

I am creating this animation. When you click on a button I want it to use facebox to use a pop up. I was talking to my coder friend and he gave me this code to maybe useSo I am trying to basically use this kind of coding into flash. The only thing is that I am not that great a coding so I have no idea what I am doing. The only coding that I have is a stop (); at the end of the animation so it doesn't loop.

I have a swf embedded into a site, and I want the swf to be clickable so when you click on it it goes to another page. I tried wrapping the whole flash object in tags, and that makes it clickable but the biggest problem I'm having is when you roll over it with the mouse the pointer icon doesn't come up, it just looks like the regular arrow. I tried playing with the css and doing cursor:pointer, but it still doesn't work. I can edit the .fla file and add some actionscript 2.0 to it, but I'm not sure what to add or where. I'd rather do it through html or css, but if I have to do it in flash that's ok too. Also, I have an invisible button over the whole thing called, MYbtn

I have recently purchased a XML based template and need to make an existing XML link goto an internal menu page. I have been able to create buttons in the flash template itself using action script with no problems. In my site I have several buttons that say more, so in the XML document it has these internal links, asfunction:_root.more_click_func,1. So what I am trying to do is have thiese links goto the contact page, so I assumed it was simple as directing the asfunction to the internal menu which is 6 but it doe snot work.
asfunction: "6"

I am trying to figure out how to make buttons on my flash file link to URLs that appear in a window of fixed dimensions (with scroller bars) next to my Flash window. I am aware that Adobe has instructions for creating pop-up browser windows through Flash [URL]. However, what I'm trying to do is a bit more complicated, since I want to have multiple embedded invisible buttons in the Flash window that each take you to a specific URL when you click on them. Alternatively I'd be happy if any button click resulted in a link to a random selection from a pre-programmed list of URLs. This is for ActionScript 3.

So I read through Kirupa's XML/Flash thumbnail gallery tutorial and have since modified some of its actionscripting to display my online design portfolio. How do I make it so that 'LAUNCH PROJECT' is a link? Here is the modified Actionscripting (I have one of each for the 3 sections):
Code:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;[code]....
As you can see at the bottom of the actionscript, I added a gotoURL action, hoping that simply by making <launch> read <launch action="gotoURL" variables="http:url...> that it would become a link. I, however, have had no such luck. Perhaps I have to add something more. How do I make it so that <launch></launch> has the ability to link to an URL?

For a project, I'm making an interactive side scroller.You move the character with the arrow keys and press the space bar to interact with things.So far, I followed DexNote's tutorial on YouTube.I thought that I would make the interactable objects as buttons, while the mouse focus would be on the character and when you press the space bar it make a mouse click in that area.The trouble I'm having now is that I don't know how to make the space bar trigger the "interactions."

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 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?
This is my code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:VBox xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" width="100%" height="100%">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
[code]....
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.
