ActionScript 2.0 :: Working W/ The Back Button In Flash?
Sep 30, 2004
I'm working on making a small flash site, the client has requested that the site respond the the Back button So I googled, and found this great tutorial: See It Here: http:[url].....Bascially I want to change the current code on the numbered HTML pages (1.html - 5.html) currently this is the code inside these pages
I have created a portfolio with both thumbnails and next/back buttons. Both work but not together. When I click on the next/back btn it goes through the images in sequence. If I click on a thumbnail out of order then return to the next/back button it jumps to the 1st and second image. Is there a way to make these work together?
stop(); next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nextimage); var imageNumber:Number = 1; function checkNumber():void{ next_btn.visible = true; back_btn.visible = true; //If the imageNumber is = 12, then do something... if(imageNumber==12){ trace(imageNumber); [Code] ......
I am designing a website for a friends band, there's a picture gallery page with two buttons, a live shots button and a promo shots button, which goes to frames 2 and 3 respectively on both frames 2 and three i have a third button called back.
This back button isn't working, I keep getting
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at site2_fla::pics_31/site2_fla::frame1()
Here's the code for the buttons
Code: stop(); live_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClick); function buttonClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
basically this code will work like a browser back button its very simple but "could end up very long" basically it will act "similiar to the browser back button"
Code:
on (release) { if(page1 = _currentframe){ _root.gotoAndStop("quiz"); } else if (page0 = _currentframe){
[code]....
it works when the (page1 = _currentframe){ is rotated with the first if statement...because for somereason it seems to not recognise the "else if's"
I have a Flash website with 3 interfaces( 3 frames with movie clips inside). they have a button that goes to different loaded .html page(text). But once the back button is pushed on the web browser, it always goes back to the first frame instead of the actual last page, which might have been frame 2 or 3.
I'm italian and I'm creating a CD to presentate a research to my teachers..this is probably a dumb question, but I need to make a 'back' button, similar to a back button on a browser. When people click the button, they get back to the previous scene (or frame: I didn't decide wether dviding the presentation's pages in scenes or frames) they came from.
The code that u have recommended is not working properly... What i meant is that the function of the back button is to navigate where the users has last viewed the webpages..
Im trying to do a history back button in flash. Im finding a bunch of scripts online and none seem to work. Anyone know of one that actually works with flash 8+ and in both firefox, safari, and IE???
ve been looking for tutorials/examples of how the back button is used in flash and all i can find is the robbert penners way(loading frames), but like he's stating on his website, its too old(2001) and there are more better ways.nd what RP recommended. But like the most of the "tutorials" written on macromedia.com..ook at it and maybey explain it a lil better or maybey have a nice lil example of it.
Is there a way to tell flash that the brower back button has been hit? I am creating an array in a shared object and when the browser back button has been hit, I am wanting it to go back one in the array.
So I'm making a music box in flash, I've programmed the forward button just fine so if I press the next_mc it skips to the next song, but my prev.mc is an issue! I only have 6 songs.
I am currently working on a site where a button in the flash takes you to an external link. The user would like the browser back button, when you are on the external link, to take them to the page on the flash that was last viewed without restarting the flash. Is this possible?

I've got a flash program that is working perfectly in firefox but not in IE. It is a program that cycles through real estate from a database. In IE, it loads the data from the search only when the search is unique, but when i try to hit the next button it comes back as blank. I tried a timestamp previously which glitched the system, but here is a workaround for anyone with a similar issue:
I have a project that have lots of Scenes (50 or so with lots of buttons that link to movies, in most cases I have several buttons linking to the same movie) So..I created a scene called "movies".I have about 90 movies on each frame (90 blank keyframes) with a stop action , FLV Move Progressive download, and a back Button on each framewhen the user clicks on a that back button I want the program to go back where the user just was, Not the Previous Frame with in the timeline or scene.
I'm trying to make a button that when clicked will make my movie clip go to the next frame, and it works fine only when it gets to the last frame in the movie clip it just stops. How can I make it loop back to the first frame with the same button. I know I can have next/previous buttons but I'm using only one button and need it to change frames on a loop.
Code: stop(); circleBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onNext); function onNext(evt:MouseEvent){ circle.nextFrame(); }
I have implemented SWFAddress 2.4, it works perfectly in Chrome and Firefox on Mac. But in Safari 5.0.3 on Mac, the back button doesn't trigger the AddressChangeEvent. Deep linking works on Safari, just the back button doesn't.
I designed a website using tips from [URL]. It's a single .swf. Nothing complicated about the as3 script. Mostly gotoAndStop commands to jump around the timeline to the different sections of the site. My question is how to set up the site as individual swfs for each "page" so the back and forward buttons on an internet browser will function. I've seen samples of loading external swfs but it's not clear how to write scripts to jump around various pages for a website. Here's the website: [URL]
Is it possible to make the flash content go back to some previous frame when the user clicks on the back button in the browser? Similarly, can the the refresh button be used to refresh to the same frame and not go back to the starting frame?

If you try navigate around, the url window will change to etc etc and the back and forword button seem to be working also, if you copy and paste the link, the flash will be smart enough to go to the indivual page alsoMy question is s below1) how do we make the back & forward button to work2) how do we contruct the url to be so dynamic
I am making a test that when you hit next it goes to a specified frame and if you hit back it goes back to the previous specified frame. The code works when I go through the code once all the way forward and back but once I try to move forward again it skips over all the inbetween pages and ends at the final page. The back button code works fine it is only the NextBt code that isn't working right.
I have trailed through endless forums and tried adding all the various codes.I have a movie that is embedded within a php page. The movie starts with an animation and at the end, an image emerges with buttons. The image that emerges is actually an xml run slideshow but I don't want to complicate it with this bit of information if it is not relevant. So the film stops there and the buttons remain with a changing background.
I would like to make it skip to the end frame if it has been played before, if someone returns to the page, so that the user doesn't have to watch the entire movie to get to the buttons.I have tried adding this to the first scene however it is pretty temperamental:
var myCookie:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("checkFirstVisit");
if (_root.getBytesLoaded() == _root.getBytesTotal()) { // Flash Cookie[code].....
