I am creating an online order form in Flash, and there is a phrase which says: I accept the Terms of Use and Privacy Policy The words 'Terms of Use' and 'Privacy Policy' are supposed to be underlined and if you click on them you are linked to termsofuse.html and privacypolicy.html. Is it possible to create an invisible button which is placed over the these words? Or can you link the pages directly to the words?
View 3 RepliesIs there any way I can embed HTML in flash? I know I can do this with text boxes but is there any other way I can do it? If not I know theres is the load feature where I can load text from a text file. With the html text box editing, Can i link that to the text file?. As in when you edit the text box with html could i have the textbox's instance name equal to the text file? With this my issue is with the <a href> in one textbox, I would like when i click those it open another text file in a different text box.
Clarification: I have two text boxes in my flash file.One has current products. And the other is the description of the product they select. I would like a way to edit and change the products in the first text box without having to keep using the FLA file. Which is why i am using this code
var myTextLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); myTextLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoaded);
function onLoaded(e:Event):void {trace(e.target.data);}
myTextLoader.load(new URLRequest("myText.txt"));
The contents of myText.txt are <a href=(not sure what to put here)> Product 1 </a> But all that does is put it in the text output section in flash.It does not show it in flash. I need help getting it to show up in a text box.That is the first part But the main problem is im not sure how to code the a href correctly so that when i click it, another text file opens in the second text box.So that when a user clicks on a product ,like "Product 1" It opens the correct description text file in the second text box.
I'm building a project that has a character navigate through a room by clicking on the floor. Right now, the walls, character, and floor are all children of the same display object for sorting purposes. My question: is there a way to disable mouse clicks to the walls and character while allowing clicks to the floor? Using mouseChildren appears to be an all or nothing deal and I can't seem to isolate individual floor/wall/character objects for use with mouseEnabled.

I'm using AS2 and Flash CS4. I'm having problems loading an external swf correctly. I get it loaded and displayed ok, but not in the correct spot. The movie clip is the same size as swf, and the registration point is in the top left corner. However, each time it loads it ends up in the bottom right corner of the screen.

I am building a flash application using flex. From time to time, I see an issue in IE 7 and 8 where the user logs into the site and the browser content pane is completely grey and the entire page (html, javascript and flash) won't load until the user clicks the X (Stop) button next the address bar. As soon as the X is clicked, the html loads and then the swf file loads immediately.
This doesn't happen for me or any other developers on the project so it is very hard to diagnose. The users are all using the latest flash player. The only difference between our setups that I can think of is that we have the debug version of flash player and they probably do not.

View 7 RepliesI'm trying to get the depths of all the blocks to be at the correct levels at the correct times so that the 3d effect is maintained. I've tried many things, but have had little success. All the instances of the blocks are stored in an array, but since it's adding them in accordance with when they're added to the stage, it doesn't help me locate them to swap depths. Is there a way to arrange them by location on the board?

I have a text input box inside a movieclip. I want to detect when the user clicks inside and open up a modal window with the full form. I use the following line of code:
Code:
this.addEventListener(FocusEvent.FOCUS_IN, _onFocus);
And it works fine, but just the first time. When I close my modal window without entering any information and click on the input form again, nothing happens. The listener is there, but nothing happens. My guess is because the focus is already there. Should I be using another listener? MouseEvent.CLICK is not what I'm looking for because I only want the window to fire when inside the textbox is clicked, not the whole thing...
I also tried
Code:
stage.focus = null;
and it also doesn't work.

View 2 RepliesWe have an image editor in Flex to add text and other changes. Once all the changes are complete, we need to save this to the server.We are using php to save the images by accepting coordinates from flex about what all edits are made for that image. Using this we are editing that image using imagick function in PHP. But the problem is output is different from what we see in flex. The issue is mainly with text alignment in flex editor and in the output we get after editing in php.Is there any other way to do this without making the user to wait for a long time to save the images? Is it possible to get the correct coordinates of text from that flex editor. Our issue is flex is passing the x,y of the container of that text editor. For this reason, test is misaligned in the output.

the dynamic text box is called 'moves' and the counter is a button which is pressed for each move. Therefore, it would need to be added to the onRelease function.
I know it exists, but I just can't figure it out. from the site I created, [URL] the login is obviously input text. How can I have the text disappear when the user clicks into the login field?

View 3 Repliesi am trying to create a simple quiz in school. I have one test question which requires the answer to be -1.I have created Input text and assigned the variable answer for this question.I have a button with the following AS2 script:
on (press, keyPress "<Enter>") {
if(answer eq "-1" or answer eq "minus 1"
or answer eq "Minus 1" or answer eq "Minus one" or answer eq "minus one")
[Code]....
Firstly whatever you type the numerical keys are immobilised on the keyboard when the .SWF file is builtSecondly I cannot enter the correct answer!! If I type in Minus 1 etc it goes to frame 3.I have tried flags rather than frame numbers - same problem.i have tried remaking the quiz as a separate file.using CS4 and CS5 flash - windows 7 PC.
I was wondering if anybody would have some input on this. I have three paths in my movie, p0, p1 and p2 (instance names). These paths are buttons and when I click on the right button I will get a message saying congratulations, if I click on the wrong button I will get a message saying wrong path. The catch is, a text file will contain the info on which button(path) is the correct one. The text file will contain, p1=true&, nothing else.

I'm trying to achieve something that I'm sure it's not that complicated, but unfortunately I have not clue how to do it.I have created some text fields. And what I want to do, it's that when the user clicks onthem, in order to start writing, I want a specific movieclip to dissapear.This could be achievable if I knew how to make the textfield behave like a button; but I don't know what code I need for this, as onPress it's not working at all.
