I need some actionscript which I can put into a movie and when that movie gets to a certain date i.e. my birthday the file redirects to my website. I would like the movie to always redirect to my site, even when that date has passed.

I need to make a function (inside Flash) that will let a swf find out what date it is (each time it is loaded from a server) and then - according to the date - display a frame designated to that date. Optionally, I could have the swf load another swf based on the date.Originally I had planned to make some php wrap-around that would do the loading of different swf's for me - but this is not an option since the swf may soon be uploaded to a server that I cannot feed with php-documents (I don't get access for that - swf only!)So now I must find a way to do this within the swf. But as of right now I am clueless.
One thing I did learn during my googling the past many hours is that the "Date class" in Actionscript is risky - in that it 'reads' what date the end user has on his/her machine. So in the event that some user has the date misconfigured that will screw up what my swf will display.Therefore I am hoping that I could somehow do a variation of php's "echo date" and get the date from the server - but inside Flash. And then have that bit of data call for a certain frame/scene/loaded swf.
I'm making a training video and right now I have a container swf that loads external swf's In the container swf there is about 3 frames in the beginning and on the fourth frame you choose the section you want to go to next. The sections are just external swf's. To load the section / external swf I'm using:

View 9 RepliesI am getting better at Flash 8, but I have a problem. I am in a Movie Clip, and when you press 'g' it returns you to the first scene, and I want it to go to the second scene.
on(keyPress "g"){
_parent.gotoAndStop("Scene 2",7);
}
Is there a way you can do that?
Anyway, I'm using loadMovie() and then trying to go to a specific frame within it:

When I replace "currentFrame" with a number, say 10, it doesn't work either. This should be so simple but I just don't get it.
i have, i have a problem with my code.i have a mc (button) that when you click on it should go to a specific frame (the option clicked) and then charge a movie.the button (mc) ist created by a duplicatemoviehere is the code

I am loading an external movie with buttons... I would like the loaded movie to goto a specific frame. This is the code to load the new movie

I did search (external swf frame) but nothing came up with what I needed
I have a time line with 2 frames only. On frame 1 I have a Movie Clip that contains a gallery and its called "gal1" on frame 2 I have another Movie clip called "gal2". Now I have 2 buttons to call each of these galleries which this code in them[code]...
But when I am in gal1 and I want to click on the second botton to call gal2 with the same exact code attached to button2, it doesn't work!
I have created a flash with five movie clips. I want when I press each of them to go and play specific frames on the main timeline? How can I do that?

View 5 RepliesI am trying to countdown to a date next year (2005) and cannot seem to manipulate the code to make it work

View 5 RepliesI'm sure there's a simple method or function out there to do this (at least I'm hoping there is). I want to return the name of a day of the week for a specific date using ActionScript.
For example, if I provide "2/2/2011" as a parameter, it should return "Wednesday". What's the best way to make this happen?
While both of them will work, I'm curious to know if anyone can think of a reason why one would be preferred over the other.
I'm trying to see if a specific date has passed but it's not working.
Here's my PHP Code:
var currDate:Date = new Date();
checkIfDateHasPassed = function(y, m, d){
var myDate:Date = new Date(y, m, d);
if(myDate > currDate){
trace("still to come");
} else {
trace("has passed");
}}// since month starts in Zero, July will be 6 instead 7
// I'm trying to use yesterday, but its not working...checkIfDateHasPassed(2011, 6, 10);
What I'd like to do is create a countdown timer to a specific date, but from all the tutorials I've read, I can't seem to find one that will include milliseconds; only a Day:hour:min:sec format.What I'd like is an Hour:min:sec:milliseconds format (the milliseconds whilst considerably pointless, is an aesthetic choice - I'm hoping the frantically changing numbers will display a sense of urgency).I'm using Flash CS4, and the following Actionscript so far:
Actionscript Code:
var endDate:Date = new Date(2012,9,6);var countdownTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000);countdownTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, updateTime);countdownTimer.start();function updateTime(e:TimerEvent):void{ var now:Date = new Date(); var timeLeft:Number = endDate.getTime() - now.getTime(); var seconds:Number = Math.floor(timeLeft / 1000); var minutes:Number = Math.floor(seconds /

I want to assign date to Date field that is in DD-MM-YYYY format. That is I receive String Closure_Date which contains date in DD-MM-YYYY format.
I want to assign that date to Date field like:
dtCloseDate.selectedDate=new Date(Closure_Date);
In this case If Closure_Date contains 16/11/2011 it takes 16 as month so it takes 12 and adds remaining 4 months and it returns 04/11/2012.
My question is how to assign date(DD-MM-YYYY) to DateField?
If I use Dateformatter(DD-MM-YYYY) like
dtCloseDate.selectedDate=new Date(Dateformatter.format(Closure_Date));
It Returns NaN
I've searched the forums for about 45 minutes and can't find the solution. I am looking for script for creating a countdown timer to a certain date and TIME. I've been able to get to the date, but not the time. For instance, if my event begins at 8PM, I want the timer to count down to that time.

I have a requierement in my project that i need to store 'US/Eastern EST' and day light saving 'US/Eastern EDT' in data base if client machine is in US/Eastern time zone. Because this gives clear identification instead of justing the chars like 'EST'. There is CDT in US region as well as Chaina too so can't relay just on three chars like 'EST'/'EDT'.
