This is only opening the 2nd website, how can I make flash open both?
ActionScript Code:
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("xttp://wwx.facebook.xom"), "_blank");
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("xttp://wwx.youtube.xom"), "_blank");
I tried posting this in the general flash forum with no sucess. I'm guessing my question is more geared towards AS3 anyway. So here goes:
I've created a flash intro for a website and I have it setup so that in the first frame of the intro it opens a popup window, and then in the last frame it opens the actual site in the same window as the intro. Right now when it hits the last frame it opens up the popup window a second time! In a lot of cases this would be fine but the popup is a music player and the two players playing on top of eachother just doesnt work.[code]...
I've almost finished my website but there's one thing that is REALLY getting on my nerves...When clicked on in Firefox and Safari all links (in Flash and HTML) open the urls in the same window, yet IE won't, it keeps opening the page in a new window. These are the paremeters I've set in XML, Flash and HTML:
XML (I've just pasted in one of the links, there are 15 in total)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<lemons>
<lemon image="Lemon1.png" tooltip="GutterStuff Pro" URLREF="file:///C:/Users/Marc/Desktop/Zest%20Media%20Website%202009/gutterstuff.html"/>

I am using Flash CS3, AS 2.0 and I have a button with -
on (release) {
getURL ("http://www.axiomaudio.com/store.html", _blank)
}
This is a small banner in an HTML page and I want it to open in the same window instead of opening a new window. I have tried using _self) instead of _blank) but it still opens a new window.
I am creating a website with a flash menu on each page. I am using getUrl code to target each page but I can't seem to get the pages to open in the same window. If I use '_new' or '_blank' the pages open in a new window as they should but if I use '_self' or '_top' nothing happens.
Code: AS3
aboutBtn.buttonMode = true;
aboutBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, callAbout);
function callAbout(e:MouseEvent):void{

I am creating a standalone Flash projector in which the user will be able to click a button to view a PDF file, I am using the getURL method to open the PDF file and it opens in my default Internet browser instead of Acrobat Reader, which is kind of expected. Is there anyway to 'launch' to open in Acrobat Reader instead?
View 4 RepliesIn all previous versions of flash I have been able to use "geturl" on a button and pull up a pdf in a local directory on my computer. Now with CS5, the same code pulls up a webpage and actually tries to go to a url. Is there a new way in CS5 to open a pdf on my local drive?

I have a menu that navigates my webpage. Say, for instance, I click on the "Home" button, it should take me to the homepage.I want the home page to open in the same window, not another window or tab. So I used this code:
Code:
on (release) {
getURL("http://www.mywebpage.com/home",_self);
}
Yet the homepage opens in a new window instead of the same window. Should I be using the "_self" parameter, or something different?
I have a strange getURL Problem under some windows installations. I autostart a Flash-projector from a CDROM. This file contains some buttons with getURL. When clicking on the buttons, the browser starts and shows a HTML-file from the CDROM.But under some circumstances this won't work. We have found some Windows-installations where we are not able to start the browser by calling getURL.I know, this seems not to be a Flash problem. It looks like a problem in the interaction from a Flash projector and Windows.
View 3 RepliesI am using the getURL function in response to a button event. I need it to open the URL (absolute) in a new browser window, but I need the new browser window to open on top of the current browser window. Right now it's opening behind the current browser window. Below is my code:
on (release){
getURL("absolute URL here", "_blank");
}
I have a Flash form sending variables to an ASP script (bono.asp) in order to print a discount bonus. The bonus grafic is then shown in a new window for the user to print with his/her data on it. (name, address, etc). Well, the problem is that it not only opens a new window with the bonus (without the data ), it also opens the bonus in the current window (with the data), forcing the user to "go back" to the flash website and loading the entire animation again. This is the code in the Flash form asociated to the Button:

Is there a work around to the getURL Firefox issue? I am having trouble getting Firefox to open my file from my exe when FF is set to my default browser. If FF is already open, the getURL functions fine. If FF is closed, I have to click on my button twice in order to open the file (ie, click once opens a blank window, click again and the file opens) I have FF 2.0.0.1, Flash MX 2004 Prof. I have tried setting an interval to have the getURL fire again but I can't seem to get it to work.

I would like to open a separate swf file from with in flash, but by default, it opens the swf in a browser. I would like this file to open in a stand alone player not in the browser.How can I achive this? Right now I'm using the getURL() action. Is there a separate function for opening a file at a specified filepath?

View 6 RepliesI've got a drop down menu. I want to click a tab to make it drop then, if it's open, click it again to close. I've tried a million variations on the script below:
var btn_grp1:String
function main1Down(event:MouseEvent):void {
if (btn_grp1 != "dwn") {
[Code]....
This works too (once). So the drop down buttons all disapear again, but it won't re-set. The drop down menu stays up from then on.
BTW i'm not set on this method, it just seemed the most obvious i.e. if menu hidden, then show it, set some variable to down (showing), else hide the menu, set var to up (hidden). Not working though.
I've messed around with XML+FLASH menu systems (downloaded from various Flash resource sites) on a novice level . As in, I know how to modify the XML file to have the content I want and where to rename the XML file in the FLA if need be. But I've never had to actually manually modify any functions within the FLA before. I'm really green when it comes down to diggin' within the Flash coding. Anywho, I came upon this really nice horizontal/glide menu from a way talented flash guru who was nice enough to share his source files with me...

my client (Who uses Firefox, on a PC) has to click on the button twice to view the PDF. The first time they click on the button, they have to close the blank window that pops up and then click on the Flash button again to view the PDF. It opens fine the second time. Is this just a PC problem? On my Mac (Safari) it works fine, but (Firefox) seems to want to save the document before I can view it.
are there any simple Sleep(1000) type of functions in the ActionScript 2.0..??

Then I choose " button " Right click at the object---> actions ---->[+]--->browser/network ----> getURL. I type my url and choose 'self" target.
When I test movie the hand symbol appears at first, but when clicked it turns to arrow. Exactly the same happends when I appload the swf and of course there's no link ...

Code:
on (release){ getURL("javascript:LightboxDelegate('imgs/Lizart_1_x768.jpg','Scape oil 60x76cm / 24x30 inch')"); }

View 1 RepliesI have an AIR application with 2-3 DropDownLists and a bunch of other controls. The DropDownLists are bound to dataproviders (ArrayCollections) in a central Model singleton. On launch, they all work fine.
However, when I click a button to add new objects to an object in another ArrayCollection in the same Model, the DropDownLists get weird. They still register clicks, and all other controls still work as before, but the dropdowns won't open. Clicking/waiting enough usually opens the dropdown, but if I don't make another selection it still won't open after closing. Making a different selection makes that DropDownList work again, but the others might still refuse to open.
If I open the dropdowns using Ctrl + Down arrow, they work all the time, so it's only the click that doesn't trigger the open correctly. I can work around the problem by calling openDropDown() on the dropdown when clicked, but that doesn't feel right.
I'm using the 4.1 SDK, and the dropdowns are s:DropDownLists. I tried using mx:ComboBoxes instead, but got the same behavior. Edit: Weirdly enough, using s:ComboBoxes they work as they should, but I really don't want to use them since they seemingly can't be made non-editable.
I have a video (AS2 swf) that navigates to a preset web page after it reaches "stop", but I can't figure out how to play the swf file from another web page. Help needed with HTML (or other usueable script) for the following task:

2. Play the swf file located on a different web site with Flash Player

Everything works, its fine...in my flash movie you would click on a icon to see the pic in a new window...okay that works...but i want the user to be able to click on another pic and have the last window they open resize to the size of the pic...Its not doing that...it does open the pic in the same window but not resized...it stays the same size as the first pic they clicked on...what i have done was for every pic i would change newWin1 to newWin2 and so on...but that just opens it in another window.So is there a way that i can make it so when i click on a pic it resizes the first window that was open?
