ActionScript 2.0 :: Self Target Does Not Open Link
Oct 20, 2009
I have some dynamic text and it does not like _self. _blank opens fine but when I apply the _self target it does not open the link. It still sees that it is a link it just will not open.
Flash CS3 AS2
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 am trying to have multiple links off site but have hit a brick wall. If I have the code listed below, it opens the second link as soon as you open the links page, If I have the"function onLinkClick (evt)", above btn6_btn I end up with the duplicate error message. Is there a way to have multiple link buttons on a page. I have played with this for hours.
I am using the following action script with a movie clip.But the link is opening in a new window or browser tab. Iwant it to open in the same window or browser tab as the flashinsert is on. What do I need to do?
I work with 3d animation. Im have a problem with a personal website Im doing, I have a link in a button inside a flash movie to open a new window and play a youtube movie:
on (release) { var jscommand:String = "window.open('http://www.youtube.com/v/b0L4XLODhAA&hl=en&fs=1&','win','height=344,width=4 25,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes');"; getURL("javascript:" + jscommand + " void(0);"); }
This works fine in Firefox but in IE it doesnt work, I then change the /v/ in the youtube link with /p.swf?video_id= and now I have the window open showing the small youtube thumbnail of my video but once a click play, nothing happens, I check it and is not loading anything.
We have an "application" consisting of a large number of PDF files that link to each other.
Some of the PDF files have links that must be a web URL when running on a PC (or a Mac) but need to open a specific application when running on an iPad.
When not on the iPad, the links look like "http://10.85.1.102".
When on the iPad, they look like "netcam4://2" - which opens the NetCam4 application with camera 2 selected.
NOTE: this is already working but we have to create two versions of the PDF and it would be much better to have only one.
Is there a way using JavaScript (or ActionScript or whatever) for the PDF to determine in which OS it is being displayed and modify the link appropriately?
We don't care if this decision is made when loading the PDF or when the link is clicked.
By the way, so far we have found that GoodReader on the iPad is the only PDF viewer that will properly follow links - including those to the NetCam4 app.

I am trying to setup a link for users to download a PDF from my site. Does anyone know if there is a way to force a download dialogue box, instead of having the PDF open in a new window. I've been using the GetURL to do this. I have looked everywhere, and only found this: [URL] But when I try to do it, there are errors, and its way above me to fix. I'm trying to do this because for some very weird reason, when it opens now in the new window, Acrobat just crashes (no clue why, but it does on all computers -- I've tested on 5).
I can't seem to get a link to open in a new window, no matter what I try. I thought this was a problem with firefox, but I'm not sure. I'm simply using getURL like this... the link is loaded from an XML file
mainBtn.onRelease = function():Void { if (this.gallery == "yes") { logo_mc.unloadMovie("MD_imagefader.swf");
[Code].....
Basically, firefox just says "transferring..." on the bottom when clicked forever, and never loads anything nor does it open a new window. When I test it on my local hard drive, firefox returns a security error that it's trying to communicate with a web source.
I purchased a website template for my business and I am having some difficulty in modifying the flash navigation. The original ActionScript code for the buttons are as follows:
onClipEvent (load) { num=4; link = "rates.html"; }
However I am trying to have the link open in an iFrame and no matter what I try does not work. I need the link to open in the iFrame main_body. I had tried using variations of the button.onPress function without much luck.
I've gotten a complaint from one operator that my banner won't open in a new tab. Indeed on their site it opens the link on self. Its fine on other sites tho.Btw I noticed all the banners on their site open in self. Including an old banner I did for them with the same [code]...
I am using the following script in Flash CS4 for a URL link[code]...
and I would like the link to open the new page in the same tab. In Safari it opens the link in a new window (when the default is to open links in the same tab). In IE it opens in a new tab, and also in Firefox (though in Firefox this is the default behaviour for me). Is there a way to override default settings and get the link to open in the same tab for all browsers?
I have created a flash website which contains a link to an outside website. When I click on the link, it takes me to that outside website in the same browser window. To go back to my website, I have to use the back arrow. I want to change the link to the outside website so that the link opens in a new window. Therefore, if somebody goes to the link, when they finish they can close the new link's window and the original window with my website will still remain, without losing both upon closing. What do I need to adjust in order to do this?
