Php :: Dynamically Change An Image From An Admin Area?

Mar 9, 2011

Here's the deal: I am working on a site that provides information for art buyers. Pricing, where to buy and things like that. The page is done in php, mysql, and some jQuery here and there.One of the things they want to implement is a live stream of auctions. What they want is something like this:Where on the left you'd see the stream -instead of the black block- and on the right, the image of the work that is currently being sold, with the artist name, title and price. That's what The image on the left should change as the auction progresses.What I need is to have and option in the admin area on the page, where the administrator can select the image to display. So, to implement this, I would need to:Connect to the database to get the information: pictures, data, etc.

Loop trough the record to get a list. From that list, the user will select the image he wants shown on the webpage.Have the admin area send the image to be displayed to the page, and have the page change it dynamically, without the user having to refresh the page.The first two points are no problem, what I'm not quite sure how to do is the third one. Flash? Some from of Javascript? I leaning towards flash, but anything will do. I'm sure what I'm asking for is nothing that hasn't been done before, but my google-fu has failed me on this one. I don't need copy and paste code, if you could point me to a tutorial on this, or the basics tools I'd need, that's great.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Change Transparency Of Background Dynamically Within An Area?

Dec 13, 2011

I have two backgrounds on different layers, and an object that can be dragged around. What I want to happen is that an area around the object should be transparent so you can see the background behind the first background, and when the object is moved, the transparent area should also move. Kind of like a "see-through" effect.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamically Sized - "hit" Area Of The Buttons To Be The Same Length As LinkName

Jun 12, 2003

I have a movie in which buttons are created dynamically:

But, I want the "hit" area of the buttons to be the same length as linkName, because right now, the button extends way beyond the text, which doesn't look that nice. I've tried both using "autoSize" and creating a movieclip in the hit area

I want to add a text area on the click or a button, for example lets say if a person has multiple addresses and they want to add more address. When the user clicks 'add address' a new text area should appear.I have looked everywhere for the solution but no luck

Hear is the code that I have tried (and this could be very wrong):

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamically Creating Transparent Area On Movieclip

Aug 1, 2007

I have a .jpg graphic in a movieclip on layer two (1024/768). This is used as a background.I have a .jpg scrolling movieclip on layer one. It is a very wide graphic used for displaying a panorama.I would like to be able to create, dynamically using actionscript, a transparent area on the layer two movieclip (create a window) to view the underlying movieclip.I believe this is possible using the Rectangle class in the flash.geom.rectangle but I can't figure out how to attach it to the layer two movieclip or how to make it transparent so shows the underlying scrolling graphic.

Professional :: Resizing A Buttons Clickable Area?

Aug 22, 2010

I am trying to make a brain anatomy game in flash CS3 and I am having some difficulty getting the buttons to respect certain proportions. Allow me to elaborate.

[URL]

And then I bring it into photoshop and make a different layer for each different structure (in the screenshot I only did it for one structure but you get the point)
 
[URL]
 
Now what I would like to do is import my .psd file into flash and make every layer a different button. But I don't know of a way to view layers of a .psd file in flash. But here's the bigger problem. As you can see, it makes the "clickable" area for the button a rectangle shape.

[URL]

Whereas I would like for it to be the shape of the specific structure. If the clickable area is a rectangle then there is an overlap onto other structures which is not at all ideal. Especially when I get into smaller structures. What I want is for the button to be exactly like the layer in photoshop.

Mar 9, 2011

I am trying to achieve an effect in Flash. The effect in question is that when I hover a certain area I want my navigation (6 movie clips that acts as a button) to appear and disappear when I move my mouse out. The trouble is that right now I Can make then appear but I cannot click them nor mouse over them since I've put a transparent (alpha = 0 ) over them.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Different Buttons Load Different Movieclips In A Main Area?

Feb 17, 2010

how to make buttons play movie clips in a particular area when I press a button however I'm trying to make the jump up higher.

I have 3 menu items with 3 movie clips loaded just beneath the menu Items. However my first problem is, how do I hide content or even better, only play certain movies when a button is released?

At the moment the code for a button I use is:

on(release){
_root.intro.play();
}

But all the movie clips are overlayed!!

Professional :: Buttons In Context Of A Scrolling Text Area

Mar 6, 2012

I just got the trial of Flash Cs5 and haven't used Flash since MX back in 04-06. Having an issue with buttons now in context of a scrolling text area. My code is set up as such:
 
[Code]....

Where up is the button to scroll upwards and down is...(you guessed it). Maintext is the movieclip in which my text is which each frame being the text "scrolled" further. My issue IS: This was working just fine UNTIL I added "Over", "Down", and "Hit" frames into my buttons (whereas previously they were just single frame arrows), and then when previewing my flash the cursor doesn't even recognize the buttons as such, and nothing happens if you click on either... If I got back and delete the over, down, and hit frames, BOOM, problem goes away. This seems very strange to me, I never had a problem like this in MX.

ActionScript 1/2 :: Limit Cursor Change To Stage Area?

Aug 28, 2009

I have a Flash interaction where I exchange the cursor for a hand holding a flashlite mc. The entire stage is black. The cursor drags a mask around that illuminates a small image in another mc on the stage that the user has to find (illuminate).2 problems

1. When the mouse is rolled outside the stage, the custom cursor is still visible.

2. When imported into Captivate 3, and I move outside the stage and over buttons for navigation, the cursor is no longer visible, for the rest of the Captivate movie.

Desired functionality:Custom cursor to be visible only when on the stage area and the normal cursor to be visible outside the stage area. The stage area is 400x330.[code]

ActionScript 3.0 :: Make The Clicking Area Of The Mouse Change?

Oct 8, 2009

I'm having trouble with a custom mouse cursor. In my script I replace the original mouse with a movie clip called hand like so:

Mouse.hide();
hand.x = stage.mouseX;
hand.y = stage.mouseY;

But when I go to click on something it uses the mouse's pointer still. I'd like to be able to drag with any part of my custom cursor(which is larger than a mouse).I've tried making a hit box that detects when the mouse is near the clip but it doesn't work onsistently(sometimes it just clicks like normal).Is there to make the clicking area of the mouse change?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Stacked Buttons Scroll By An Invisible Button Area

Feb 11, 2009

I have some movie clips turned buttons (by way of mc.buttonMode = true and friends) that scroll by an invisible button area, and when they are 'under' that area, none of their mouse events work. How can I still catch their mouse events in addition to the MOUSE_OVER of the invisible button on top?

Professional :: Change Response Area Of MOUSE_OVER Event On A Line?

Aug 11, 2010

I have some lines that I am assigning actions to upon MOUSE_OVER    
 
The problem is that they are relatively small and kind of finicky to get the mouse directly over.  When the mouse_over event occurs, I am changing their color to indicate they've been selected.
 
Is there a way I can change how sensitive they are to the mouse over event (i.e. detect MOUSE_OVER within 10 pixels of each MC or something)?
 
Here's the code I am using to asign the listeners and then to create a MOUSE_OVER event.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Make A Single Mouseover For An Area Which Controls Buttons Inside It?

Dec 31, 2007

I have a 400x300 area that needs to detect a rollover and animate several buttons, text fields, etc. sliding into it when the mouse rolls into the area so that they can be manipulated, and animate them sliding out when the mouse rolls out of the area to hide them from view. (example here: [URL])

What is the best way to do this? The only way I have got it to work so far is by using a listener to track mouse position, but it's not reliable since you can move the mouse quickly in some areas of the movie and the listener doesn't catch it.
