I am using a flash template with a _urls.txt file. I would like to change the code so I can display a target html page in an inline frame. My goal is to change the page content when a when a nav item is choosen without reloading the swf.I have tried several methods with no luck. What should I do to accomplish my goal?Here is the original code in the template.
on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay("s1");
}

Note: I rarely join forums or post threads, however, given the living hell i went through to figure this problem out I thought i would go ahead and post this for all others having my problem (in hope that you find this link and it solves your problem). Aim: using frames, I want to create a flash menu in the left frame, the buttons in the left frame should open up the target page into the (main) right frame. [in other words a normal frame based website that has a flash menu as the navigation for the site] Problem: When using getURL to open the page in the frame i.e. on (release) {

I've created a 'flashvars' tag in my embed code (aid=test), which I simply wish to add to the end a GetUrl statement, contained in within a button (which is on the first level of the flash movie). This is the code I've added to the button...
on (release) { getURL("http://www.platinumselect.com?id="+aid);}
But this doesnt seem to work!? Is there anything else I need to do?
I have been tyring to figure this out for a while now and no luck. I have some AS2 code below which works:

I am just trying to pass some variables from flash to php with getURL
getURL("CompSummary.php?url3=" + url3, "_self");
URL33 keeps coming back as undefined
However I printed out url3 using dynamic text in the flash movie just to check it and it does indeed exist, and is defined. I also tried creating a string and passing that to getURL
var path = "CompSummary.php?url3=" + url3;
getURL(path, "_self");
still no luck.
i'm running into what seems to be a simple syntax issue i i have a querystring passing a var to my .swf. this var is getting into the movie fine and i can output it in a text box, but i'm having problems "rebuilding it" into my new getUrl. here's what i have:

I need to send a variable (zipcode) to a coldfusion script and also load the cf page that displays the results (same script) in the browser window (_self) is getURL the appropriate choice for this? (never done it this way before). if so, does using POST in a getURL just grab any variables on the _root? where does it get its variables?
View 3 RepliesI have 2 buttons in a flash movie with the following codes. They open a new URL that also contains a flash movie and it sends the variable "nFrame" and a value.
Button1:
Code:
on (release) {
getURL("goats.html?nFrame=1");
}
Button2:
Code:
on (release) {
getURL("goats.html?nFrame=2");
}
When the new URL opens I want the flash movie to begin at a particular frame depending on what variable "nFrame" is equal to. I tried placing this code in the first frame to do it but it didn't work, the movie just loops and loops and doesn't stop at any frame.
Code:
if(nFrame=1) {
gotoAndStop("cheese");
} else {
gotoAndStop("wine");}
}

I am building a gallery that creates movieclips dynamically within another dynamically created movieclip. I tried to target those movieclips using variables the following way:
_root.mc_holder[parent_mc][child_mc].onRelease=function(){
//whatever
}
but it won't work. I have trace(_root.mc[variable1][variable2]) and it returns the right path, so why is the onRelease not working?
Is it possible to open a url after clicking dynamic text? I have some fields which I filled from XML, now I would like to add url to them (for they worked like a link), but somehow I can't. Or is the only possibility to "cover them" with MCs which will get onRelease? So if I have a node like:
Code:
<node description="Should be a link" url="http://something.com />
And now I fill the dynamic textfield like:
Code:
mytext_txt.text = ....childNodes[i].attributes.description;
... how can I add the url to it in the easiest way?
Still creating the menu I ran into this problem with getURL. I've tried a lot of things, but it still won't go to the URL. Here's my AS code. I marked out where the getURL is.

// Create xml-object
menuXml = new XML();
// Ignore tabs, spaces etc.

I have an XML file with a path to a number of images which I load to the stage.
Code:

picLoader.load(new URLRequest(String(xml.projectInfo[i].image)));

What I want to do is bring the infoBox to the top Index than bring the image to the top index after that so that the logo is over the infoBox. The infoBox is no problem but I can't seem to get the code right for the target to have the top index. I have tried a number of variations and done some research but no luck. [URL]
picture: [URL].. I am making a boardgame in flash Action Script 3 each position on the board is a buttons like this: button_1_1, button_1_2 etc. Whenever a character is selected you want to move it so the script has to add event listeners for positions around the selected unit
[Code]...
In the rest of the code I have:
function userClickedPosition(position_x:int, position_y:int) it selects or deselect a unit function selectUnit(position_x:int, position_y:int):it uses the listentoButton(1) function to add 8 listeners (the positions around the clicked unit)function deselectUnit(position_x:int, position_y:int): it uses the listentoButton(0) function to delete 8 listeners (the positions around the clicked unit)
My question: adding eventlisteners is no problem but removing them dont seem to work? What did I do wrong?

I have been working with AS2 for a long time, but are a total newbie when it comes to AS3.On my stage I have placed an empty MC with instance name "holder".In my library I got a MC linked by the name "sektor".
"sektor" has several movieclips and buttons with instance name, e.g. "corner1", "corner2", "corner3"....
I have nested "sektor" inside "holder" by writing this code:
Code:
var newClip:sektor = new sektor();
newClip.name = "sektor1";
holder.addChild(newClip);
What I want to achieve is to control those movieclips inside "sektor" by turning dem on/off.I have tried to do this with this code:
Code:
holder.sektor1.corner1.visible = false;
but I keep on getting this error:
"TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties."
I have figured out that by tracing holder, I know it�s excisting (Result: [object MovieClip]) but if I try to trace holder.sektor1, I got the result "undefined". So it seems like "sektor1" is not excisting. Why?
I want to loadMovie in the target _root.as. And the url is dynamic: _root.as.loadMovie(_root.link) Unfortunately the movie isn't loaded I tried to convert _root.link to string but nothing
