there is a button on 1st frame. there is a movie clip on frame 2. I named the movie clip as "ball_mc" I want to go to frame 2 when I click on button on 1st frame. I know that the code "gotoAndPlay(2);" on button will work. But for some reasons, i want to try another way.... i tried several codes:
1. this.ball_mc.gotoAndPlay();
2. _level.ball_mc.gotoAndPlay();
3. _global.ball_mc.gotoAndPlay();
4. _root.ball_mc.gotoandPlay();
However these codes dun work. Is there other way to resolve this besides this code "gotoAndPlay(2)"?
I have a movie clip on my stage that has its own timeline with 7 frames, each a keyframe with different content. How would I target a movie clip that appears only on one of these frames within the parent clip?
I'm used to using dot syntax to target clips within clips (eg. parentClip.myClip.onRelease = function(){...), but when I try this with a clip that only appears on one of the frames in the parent clip it doesn't work. Do I need to address that frame specifically? How would I do this? I'm using AS2 in CS3 on a Mac.
I am using a flash template with a _urls.txt file. I would like to change the code so I can display a target html page in an inline frame.

What should I do to accomplish my goal?Here is the original code in the template.
on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay("s1");

Is it possible to create a link on an html page that when clicked will load a new page, which has a flash movie on it, but make the flash file jump to, say frame 50, or a frame label?
View 2 RepliesI am having trouble trying to get a button to target a frame label. Right now I have the button inside a movie clip and my idea was to have the click event target a frame label that is outside of the button movie clip. The frame label actually lives within the parent movie clip of the movie clip holding the button. I am using Action Script 3.0 so I am not sure what to do. And not sure if I should have the actionscript inside the nested movie clip or in the parent. Here is what I have so far...
/*
The parent movie clip is called "services_mc"
The nested movie clip holding the button is called "brandID_mc"
The button is called "goback_btn"

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to reference a specific frame inside a MC in my .swf file from an .as file. What I want is to capture the current frame of the movie clip for the .as file. It's for the purpose of points when you shoot each plane. It's an easy trick of frame 1's plane would be worth 100 points, frame 2's plane 200 points, etc. I thought I'd write a line like this in my collision detection section of my .as file.
Code:
planePoints = currentFrame * 100;
The only problem is, of course, it grabs the current frame of the main .swf timeline that my flash file uses, and not the movieclip that's being called to produce the planes. So I thought I'd be able to specify a path to the movie clip (in this case it's called Airplane in the MC's linkage properties).
Code:
planePoints = Airplane.currentFrame * 100;
Then, of course, it freaks out and says that 'access of possibly undefined property currentFrame through a reference with static type Class.'
I still get confused with AS3 and the way items are handled vs AS2. I've lost track of how many times I type _root. Am I getting something basic mucked up here or should I be importing something in the package to get it to recognize the class?

Ok... I have 2 scenes.... 1st scene is an intro menu with several movie clip symbols (let's call them buttons for all intents and purposes) that gotoAndPlay various sections of the 2nd scene when clicked ... The various buttons on this intro screen point to different frame numbers in the 2nd scene... button1 goes to frame 1 of scene 2... button 2 goes to frame 10 of scene 2.... button 3 goes to frame 20 of scene 2 and so on....
when I click the 1st button, it takes me to the 2nd scene at frame 1 and correctly shows me that page ... (all 2nd scene pages have a navigation bar at the top to access the other 2nd scene pages) ... when I click on a navigation button it takes me to the next page within the 2nd scene that I am looking for and each progresive page works correctly.

I have two movie clips on the main stage: mcNav and mcContent1 (mcContent1 is located in the 2nd frame).
When I click btn1 which is a movie clip within mcNav, I want to go to the 2nd frame on the main stage where mcContent1 is located.
And then go to frame 10 within mcContent1 and stop.
Here's what I have:
btn1.onRelease = function() {
_root.gotoFrame(2).mcContent1.stop(frame 10);
Just wondering how this is done within an "if then" statement. I need a code like
if (_root.frame = "home") then {
this.quickHome.onPress = function () {
_root.gotoAndPlay ("homeToContact");
}
}
I know the first line isn't going to work, but just wondering if someone knew of a code that would?
