I need a button that simply goes to a frame bringing up a set of text, but once that text is on the screen the button does nothing. If i'm being too vague just let me know,
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to pass text from an input text in frame 1 to a dynamic text field in frame 10. Thus when the user enters text and clicks the submit button it takes them to frame 10 and shows them what they typed. It's not working but I'm not getting any errors. Here's the link:

If I have an input text field on frame 1 and I enter text in it then I have a button that say sends me to frame 2. On frame 2 I have a button which sends me back to frame 1. Why when I got back to frame 1 is my text not shown?Why does an input text field go blank when leaving the frame? How can I make it so when i enter text on frame 1 and then go to frame 2 and then back to frame 1 the text i entered is still there?
View 7 RepliesI am using TweenLight and want to animate a MC. I create the MC, give it an instance name and can animate as such as long as the MC is on the stage.
Code:
TweenLite.to(Test_MC, 1, {x:300, alpha:1, scaleX:1.5, scaleY:1.5, delay:2});
but when I delete the MC from the stage I get an access of undefined property error. I want to bring the MC in an out of the stage when needed. How can I?
I've created an animated button in flash cs3, and wanted to bring my work onto a webpage/dreamweaver. HOWEVER, I only want to import the button, NOT the entire SWF file... JUST THE BUTTON... HELP!! I am using dreamwaver cs4, and want to know how, the only thing I know how to do on dreamweaver is bring in the whole movie clip, but this just won't do...
View 2 RepliesIm new to Flash and am working on a small project and have come across a problem. I dont know how best to describe it but I will give it a go. On one frame I have multiple buttons. I want the 'down' frame of the button to come up as a bitmap image over the entire frame, however when I try to do this, when I click on the button the image shows up but is behind all the other buttons on the page. Is there anyway around this or do I need a new approach?

The animator said that he has created two symbols: one for the body, and another symbol inside the body symbol for the head.What I don't understand is how he translated the layers over into the head symbol. When I click on the head symbol, all of the layers disappear and I cannot edit an object individually within a layer.
I'm using the following code to bring in external images, however, I would like the images to come in and be behind everything else instead of placing themselves on top of everything.

I have got the problem with passing variables from php to a flash file. It works perfecly fine in the flash environment but when I move the file to the actual page on the server the loader doesn't seem to return any value.

View 1 RepliesI'm making a game where you move your avatar around the screen, grab pickups, and avoid enemies. The avatar and enemies are movie clips containing animations. When you collide with an enemy, his movie clip plays a quick animation. All of which is working fine. But what would be the best way to bring in new enemies (which will be different) when a new level starts?
Should I try putting the enemy movie clips inside empty holder movie clips, then swapping them with addChild? So far I haven't been able to get that working. Would swapping external SWFs into empty clips be better (which I'm reluctant to do, since the code that triggers the movie clip animation on collision is working well)? Is there a way to use normal mc's without holder clips, clear them from the stage, and create new ones? Or, is there a way to simply put all the enemy animations on different layers in a movie clip timeline, and switch them by controlling the layer visibility?

I am new to AC3 and I need to have my Flash movie read URL's dynamically from an XML file. I have used this code and applied it to my button(photo_link_btn):
photo_link_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_D OWN, mouseDownHandler);
function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("[URL]"));
}
It works when I hardcode a URL into the URLRequest line highlighted above. But I am trying to bring in the URL through XML. Here is an example of the XML data:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

I am designing a page with over 20 thumbnail picture buttons on one single layer. When a thumbnail button is rolled over a larger picture will appear on the center above all of the content. How do I make the larger rollover image appear above all the buttons and content (without making a layer for 20+ thumbnails)?

I am doing a simple loadmovie, bringing an external swf into a holder clip that is empty.
here is my code. I have it placed on frame one INSIDE the holder clip:
PHP Code:
_root.pages.weddingholder.loadMovie("wedding_section.swf",this);
The external movie loads, but the issue is HOW it loads. The swf is 643x394 and looks fantastic by itself. When it is loaded into the holder clip though, it scales it and makes it much taller and wider than the actual external SWf is, and is messing the way it looks up.
i have a movie clip with a dynamic text field being animated...i have a text file with this in it
&textline1=time
&textline2=place
&textline3=year
&textline4=month
now how do i make the movie clip to first go from frame 1 to 10( last frame in teh movieclip) with the text time and then when the movie clip starts again it should say place and so on and so forth.. depending on how many textline variables i define in the text file?
a_modified_dog suggested, and was kind enough to provide working code in the thread, Assign text to dynamic text fields on different frames, using the "onChanged" event placing code in the main time line of both frames 1 and 2 of a Flash Actionscript 2 movie. The "onChanged" event has been designed apparently for input style text fields only - requiring the user to input text. The code example provided works well for that sequence. But my intended sequence of user events does not permit the user to input a text value. The "onChanged" event does not work with the following intended sequence of user actions:
(1) the user makes a selection from a scrolling list of items that appear within a movie clip (MC1) on frame 1. The list is comprised of a number of selectable buttons.
(2) When the user clicks a button (BTN1) contained in MC1, the onRelease event assigns a string value to a text box (TXT1) within a separate movie clip (MC2) on frame 1. (this is working well)
(3) the user then clicks a stand alone button (separateBtn) on frame 1 that invokes a "gotoAndStop" at frame 2. (no problem)
(4) The text (TXT1) from within the movie clip (MC2) on frame 1 needs to be assigned to a text box (TXT2) on the stage of frame 2. (BIG PROBLEM)
I've played with both dynamic text fields and input text fields. Using the "onChanged" event works well with input text fields IF the user actually enters text into the input text box. Using the intended sequence, a text value is being assigned to TXT1 in MC2 by a button "onRelease" event from within MC1. This same text value (TXT1) should also appear in the text box TXT2 on frame 2. I've tried both input and dynamic style text boxes for TXT1. Both work well for showing the assigned text string on frame 1. Both styles also, when advancing to frame 2, show "undefined" in the corresponding text box (TXT2) on frame 2. Neither input or dynamic style of text box seem to recognize the "onChange" event - from having no text when starting up to having text within TXT1 dynamically appear after the user makes their selection from the button (BTN1)event (onRelease) in MC1.I tried assigning the text in TXT1 on frame 1 to a variable (var_txt1) - in the main time line - and having TXT2 on frame 2 read and assign the variable to TXT2 (TXT2.text = var_txt1), scripting also on the main timeline of frame 2.. Again, all attempts result in "undefined" appearing in TXT2 instead of the variable value (var_txt1). Using 'trace" on frame 1 shows the correct value for the variable (var_txt1). When advancing to frame 2, "trace" shows "undefined".
I have frame label name "game" when game is finish, I want to display in frame named "gameover". I cannot pass dynamic text of score to gameover frame. I got the initial value of dynamic text of score, instend.

View 1 RepliesI found this awsome tutorial to create an animated button on this page [URL]. Everything works fine, but now I want to link the button to a frame with text in it called "text" in scene 1. So I tried it instead of
[Code]...
This is what I would like to do:
I have a movie clip of a box resizing from small to big in 10 frames.I want text to appear only at the last frame.However, there are many different types of text I want to put in this box depending on user selection.
Therefore the text would be dynamic.
I want to control this in AS3.
I've created an instance of this movie clip and added to the stage via addChild() function.
I've tried adding a label to the movie clip but the text appears from the beginning to the end (frame 1 to frame 10).
I have designed a movieclip containing dynamically loaded text for ease of updating, however, when I roll over it (it is made to be a button), the text resets to the original text.[code]The reason I want this to work is so I can have the text glowing on rollover, but it doesn't work on frame 2.
