Do you still have to use Flash wrappers like Zinc to be able to save files from a CD using a Flash projector. In the same way you would use Filereference.save?
I've got a DVD style project where I need to be able link to files such as PDFs, JPGs and WMVs giving the user the ability to save these to their local drive.

View 1 Repliesi have created a flash animation for my homepage, i want to make part of that flash animation a "enter" button so when clicked would go to my page 2 on my website.
i have never done any script before and only used dreamweaver on a mac. is there an easy way to create this button to link to my next page and to stop my file to stop looping?
I've created a flash naviagation menu and currenlly my links will open a pop up window. I don't want this. I want it to open the link in the same window. Here is the code for one of the links:
var home:URLRequest = new URLRequest("index.html");
function homeDown(event:MouseEvent):void { navigateToURL(home,"_self");}
button_home.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,homeDown);
I'm fairly new to ActionScript and was wondering if anyone had an idea how this effect was done:[URL]..Click on a show date and the link zooms up and fills the screen giving show info. Then when you click the back button it shrinks back to where it was on the calendar.

View 5 RepliesSorry for bothering you with questions like these, but I've never worked with Flash before, so I've got no knowledge in as3. So I'm trying to make a full flash website, and I've read some good tutorials on the net, but some of the script codes the tutorials provide doesn't work. I'm trying to link a button to a page like google, or a page on the flashsite. I just purchased Flash cs4, so that might be the reason why the tutorial codes doesn't work..

I am able to pass a variable from an html link that loads a separate html file and instructs the embedded file to go to a specific frame.But - I now need a link within an swf file on one page to open a new page and tell that swf to start on a specific frame and it is not working.

View 5 RepliesI've built a SWF with the top layer being an invisible button. As a test, I simply uploaded the file to the server and clicked it. Here is the URL where the file is located: [URL] When clicked anywhere, it should take you here: [URL] and it does. I sent the SWF to a third party vendor who have placed the masthead at the top of a page: [URL] which its on their server. When you mouse over the image, it appears clickable, but if you click it, no action takes place. It's the exact same file. Why is it working from one place, but not the other?

View 8 RepliesI'm at my absolute wit's end. I'm an advanced Photoshop and After Effects user with quite a bit of knowledge using HTML and CSS. Today is my first day of Flash.
One would think that redirecting to a different page at a certain frame would be simple. I've been sitting here for 5 hours sifting through tutorials and forums and still have yet to arrive at the answer.
Here's what I have:
I clicked on the last keyframe and in the actions panel entered:
flash.net.navigateToURL(URLRequest("http://www.mywebsite.com/index.html", "_self"));
I have tried many (many) other iterations. how it can be done using step by step instructions. Most importantly I need a complete example of the actual code to be used.
Why is it so very very difficult to do this? I love how scripts function in After Effects. I love other Adobe software. Why is Flash so cumbersome?
i have 5 menu in my website (home, news, about,..) and the news page is built in wordpress. The others is in one flash file (1 swf)..how do i make a link from my wordpress page to my swf (to specific frames in swf, and it's that frames is in a movieclip)
View 2 RepliesI have a website I would like to run locally in the computer. The website is in flash and links to some HTML pages in the same folder. How do I write the action script button so it opens the HTML page in the same page? Right now I have:
on (release) {
getURL("localfile.html");
}
The above code doesn't go to the HTML page that I wanted in the same folder. Do I need a relative path or something? Indicate the folder it is in?
I have managed to create some buttons movie clips and understand how to link pages. The only question i have is how do you make the button/link for the current page highlight so the user can know what page they are on? Is there a way to have a current page indicator in flash as you can do with html/css?

for flash 8 I have created a nice flash site to show some portfolio work. I have all the thumbnails in place but I wanted them to open a new HTML window in the size of the portfolio piece.

View 1 RepliesIs there a snippet of code I can use to put on a button in Flash where when clicked, it could link to a random new page? For example, lets say I put all possible random pages into a folder, can I link a button on my main flash page it so that any one of the .htm files in that folder could open at random? I'm using AS2 scripting.
View 1 RepliesOn my homepage I want a video and when the video has ended, the user gets redirected to the next page. So far I've got my video in flv format, imported it into Flash CS4 and the added video control thing. I've then exported the movie and imported it into Dreamweaver CS3. I can get it working on my website.
View 14 RepliesI'm making a website in dreamweaver with flash in it, I want to link an image that I have in flash to another page (.html) that I have in dreamweaver. When I first used flash and dreamweaver I had done it, but honestly now I completely forgot and can't figure it out. I know I didn't use any action scripts. I just put the page name (???.html) somewhere and it worked.
View 5 RepliesI am designing a website in flash CS3 using Action script 2.0 not 3.0 and Flash Player 8. The architecture I used is as follows:I have a menu/main page which loads the swf files of other flash pages.I have a particular flash chatroom page which is loaded by the main page that I would like to be able to link an web address (example url...) directly too that particular sub flash page ...rather than going to the main.swf which is what the original web address uses.
Technically I know I could link a web address to the chatroom.swf file, but then it would estetically look incomplete since the theme/design of the website is in the main.swf which calls the chatroom.swf.Thus my question is: is there a way to assign the web address to the chatroom.swf inside the main.swf.I would like to go directly to the chatroom without clicking chatroom on the main.swf menu.
I am using the following script in Flash CS4 for a URL link[code]...
and I would like the link to open the new page in the same tab. In Safari it opens the link in a new window (when the default is to open links in the same tab). In IE it opens in a new tab, and also in Firefox (though in Firefox this is the default behaviour for me). Is there a way to override default settings and get the link to open in the same tab for all browsers?
I have produced several .swf files to be used as part of an interactive cd. I have produced the home page in dreamweaver, with a button link for each of the movie clips, but when the clip ends it just stays on this clip, i need a kind of "home page" link at the end of the clip to take the viewer back to the page with all of the links to the other movies on,

this is the first time I have used flash pro.I just edited the menu and everything works perfectly except for the highlighting of the link on the current page. If im on the home page, home is correctly highlighted. However after that it skips the next button (about). So when I am on the about page the next button (events) is highlighted.
