ActionScript 2.0 :: Linking XML Images To Another URL In Flash?
Nov 16, 2009
I created a Flash image gallery where you can scroll through small thumbnails and when you click on the thumb, the larger image appears inside a movieclip (instance "picture"). All the images are loaded in from an external XML file.
My XML is set up in this way:
<pic>
<image>http://www.website.com/image_large.jpg</image>
<caption>Image 1</caption>
<thumbnail>http://www.website.com/image_small.jpg</thumbnail>
<link>http://www.website.com/webpage</link>
</pic>
I want to know how to make it so that when the user click on the larger image that loads into the movielcip (instance "picture") it takes the user to another HTML page.
My Flash code is:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
[code]....

I have basic knowledge of Flash and do not know how to link an external image to my Flash document. While flipping through a Flash resource book, my thought is that it's through Actionscript, possibly using URLLoader/URLRequest classes. But I don't understand how to do it. Also, do I use a transparent button as the placeholder for the image/actionscript?

.I've downloaded a template, which I'm modifying to get working the way I want. You can see how far I've got by going to URL... My question is regarding the 'About' page, where on the right hand side you'll see a pull down menu, with two images on it. The first (says Myrtletown Films) loads and links correctly - The second doesn't link correctly.I'm almost certain its a coding linking issue - As if I were to load the same movieclip as the first one (only telling it to load image2, it loads fine - but then wont link to a separate location).Ok, its starting to get confusing; so here's the FLA. When you open the FLA don't go looking around for bits and pieces. Everything you need will be in the 'action_ content' movie clip. You will find both instances of the images (which are labelled 'Previous_Work_Item_1a' etc)[code]The first image is linked to page '6', the second image (which is failing to load) is linked to page '7'. What's confusing is that Previous_Work_Item2a/b/c are just duplicates of Previous_Work_Item_1a/b/c

I have captured a very old version of flash which was designed using Macromedia Flash and now extracted by ******* and try to hyper-linking but these wont work. I noticed that the option that i can is ActionScript 1.0 and 2.0 and code snippets works with Actionscript. I have little experience with layers as i know Photoshop and i just copy all of Layers and paste in new Flash with Actionscript and now can use the Code Snippets but they still dont work and i dont know. These images are set as buttons open up Action and add code there but they dont work. I dont know what to do next. Here's a flash that i just want to simply link all the images expect the moon and Spaceman.

the project im working on is all database driven, there are no html files and all coding that is created is made by php then stored within a db to be called later on. now because of this i can't use relative links at all with anything i.e. images, videos and swf files.
so.....i am using swfobject to link to a swf file using absolute linking as shown in the coding below. but what i need to do now is link an .as file in my swf using absolute linking so i can call some arrays from the file.i have doubled checked to make sure my vars can be passed by local testing and it works but now i need it as absolute....is this possible?

Project is a map of Europe - in Flash 8, with an xml document linked to it. for each country (or group of countries, where they need to be grouped together), there is going to be ultimately a URL link which displays a relevant article. The xml document needs to 'tell' the flash file there is an article - with the default being that there isn't (if that makes sense) - if and when there IS a story, that country needs to change to a button, which can be clicked by the user to open the article .. probably on a new page. thus far I think I need to have an xml document something like this (forgive my fumblings):

I'm creating an interactive flash tutorial for kids teaching them about healthy eating. Part of the tutorial involves them learning about different food groups, then playing different 'games' to test their knowledge.
I would like to incorporate a user login system, so the user logs in on the main menu, and then the system records which activities have been completed, and a score for each activity. This will update whenever they finish a game or achieve a score better than their previous attempts.
I found a gotoAndLearn.com tutorial but that was just retrieving stuff from a database and plugging it into an SWF. any suggestions / tutorials available on how I can achieve this 2 way interaction?

I have created seven buttons using Flash version 9 following a tutorial on this site [URL]. The buttons function the way they were designed, however, when I attempt to link them with a URL or a unpublished website file (eg. contact.html or index.html) the button brings up the "TextEdit" application on my Mac.
The action script 3 code that I am using:
btn_6.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onMouseClick);
function onMouseClick(event:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("contact.html"), "_same");}
I have even tried using action script 2 code after changing the publish settings to AS2:
btn_6.onRelease=function(){
getURL("[URL]", _same);}
The results are the same. When I test the buttons, they link to an application on my Mac. All of my buttons are on the same layer.

I was following this tutorial http:[url].... and I wanted to add links to pictures shown within the banner. So I've edited 'picture 1/2/3' in the library panel transforming them into movie clips, and then opened them in edit mode and added required actionscript. But when I publish/preview them, they're not linking. I'm getting a clickable mouse-cursor over my banner, bun nothing happens. What should I do to make it work ?This is the actual project :
http:[url]....and here's the code I'm adding :
on (release) {
getURL ("my link here","_blank");

If there is a link to a section of a flash website from an HTML and/ or another Flash Movie... is there a way that the link could load the next Flash movie and then go to a specific keyframe or, even better, allow a custom animation to play when the user goes from the link on the first page to the "deep link" within the Flash movie?I can try to clarify the problem and question if I have to. Curious if this can be done and if anyone out there has had any success.Have used named anchors before to allow Windows toggling and bookmarking of Flash sections... however, this would have to work on ALL platform browsers and as info is somehow passed into the new Flash movie it seems different altogether

I want to find a relatively easy solution for deep dynamic linking within flash. There are plenty of tutorials out there, so please don't jump to the conclusion that I haven't done a search. What I am looking for is a tutorial that should theoretically be easy to follow for someone who is a non-coder.

I am but a lowly martial arts instructor who has 'foolishly' decided to try and do our website. I decided to use a flash template which has actually worked out ok (word to the wise - DON'T BUY FLASH TEMPLATES UNLESS YOU ARE WILLING TO KISS YOUR LIFE GOODBYE FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS).
Anyway, I wanted to put a news ticker on the site to display 'latest news' - I took an example that was kindly supplied from this site, and it works fine. However, I just cannot figure out how to create a link in the XML file that when clicked takes you back into another part of the flash site. I can get it to link to an external URL no problem at all but just cannot get the link to take it back to a section of the site I want it to go to.

I created a flash page which I'm having problems linking the buttons.I have 3 pages in scene 1("home page frame2", "music page frame3", "contact page frame4"), which all are set to movie symbols. I set buttons inside the home page and want one of the buttons inside the page to link to my music page (frame3) in scene 1
actionscript code "on (release){
gotoAndPlay("music")
}
and all it does is reload the home page as if it can't find it's way out of the home page back to scene1. I realize I created buttons inside the home page and not in the main scene1.

I want to add an OnRelease get URL to each thumbnail. The flash gets the URL from the XML file. How to link a URL to each thumbnail when clicked? This is an example that I've been following, but I also need to get the URL from the XML file and open it in a new window when the thumbnail is click: [URL]. Any ideas to adding actionscript or code to the existing flash and xml files?
