After defining my button as a button and then going into the F9actionscripts menu, I don't know what code to input to make the button link to a specific file. I'm doing this as an autorun swf for a CD I am making.
View 1 RepliesHere's my new question: What code I have to input in a button file in Flash, for that when I click it opens a site I've made, in a browser? I'm doing my website in Flash, and the other website I want to put the link was made in Dreamweaver. It's not hosted, it's in my pen, that's why I'm having problems with the code.

View 1 RepliesI am making a presentation. I have a swf file where I have a button when we click on it it will open a site. But my loCAL SWF is blocking the url.
Error message is:
Adobe flash player has stopped a potential unsafe operation...
Files: Attached is a link to a file I made named "index". [URL] I would have liked to have included the following files but was limited due to "you-send-it" not uploading folders. Files not included: [but functioning and vital to the site as well as the question]
- xml list
- images [folder]
- thumbnails [folder]
Project scope: Website is an online-art gallery. I was able to get a functioning xml rolling thumbnail bar as well as have it load images. [Due to certain circumstances I was forced to put the project on hold until now.] It consist of 17 buttons, on the index [home] page, which are to call upon an xml file to load the appropriate scrolling thumbnail bar and the images which it loads upon clicking.
Problem
When you open up the index file, go to the actions layer. You will see the script needed to load in the xml scrolling thumbnails as well as the associated images. The actionscript is fine and works in as much as when I save out an swf file the thumbnails dynamically load in and when I click on them the associated image loads to stage as well. [again if you download the index file you will not see this as not all the files were able to be uploaded due to "you-send-it" as mentioned.]

I was ust wondering how I would go about linking a button to a keyword within a .jpg file, within a folder and making that .jpg appear within a window. The word that the button will search for will not be the full name of the .jpg, it will only be part of the .jpg file name.
View 1 RepliesI have a flash file and I have the dynamic text with the variable name 'Text1' I want to be able to edit this piece of text by linking the flash file to a php file - but I know nothing about php and therefore I don't know what coding to use in flash to link to php. All I need is a basic bit of coding which would be able to put in php so that one bit can be edited so that it will be edited in the swf.

as everything is all database driven on my site i link the flash file using swfobject like but inside the swf file it calls an xml file that is local. Now because i have linked to the swf using http: the xml file will not load. Is it possible to link to the xml file in the same way as i have with the swf using http:?also when i export my flash file from the fla it comes up with an error on output saying " There is no property with the name'displayState' "???here is the actionscript code
function initGallery(){ function loadXML(loaded) if (loaded)xmlNode = this.firstChild; total = xmlNode.childNodes.length;

im currently making a quiz with different questions and im trying to link the questions dynamix text to a xml or txt file heres an example for one question:
on my answer timeline i have for the buttons (one frame per question):
stop();//Text Linkquestion.text = question1;
b1.longtext.text = answer11;b2.longtext.text = answer12;b3.longtext.text = answer13;b4.longtext.text = answer14;
Then on my main actions line i have a list with all answers and questions, this is for question one :
[Code]...
how can i put this into a xml or txt and just say from flash, hey heres where you find the text to put onto the buttons?
[URL]
I have one file in a folder. I want to access that file but all I know is the extension. How would I link that file? At the moment, I have:
new URLRequest("music/*.mp3")
I have also tried various others such as:
new URLRequest("music/'*'.mp3")
new URLRequest("music/*.*")
When I put the actual link in such as:
new URLRequest("music/song.mp3")
It works perfectly fine, though.
I think there are probably three options:
Load the link in as a flashvar and allow the Flash to open the URI
Load the link into the Flash file using AJAX/AJAH and allow the Flash open the URI
Just have the Flash file call a Javascript function that opens the URI
Is one of these methods better than the other(s)?
I'm working in a CMS, so each method requires a different process to edit/control the link. In #1, the editor needs to open the Flash node and add the path to a flashvar. In #2, the editor just needs to add the path as an anchor with a specific ID to a page (or XML). In #3, the paths could be stored in many different ways. The links aren't known when the Flash files are created, so they can't be embedded in the Flash. Is there a performance/efficiency/compatibility/good reason to use #1 over #2 or #3, etc?

[Code].....
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?
So I have main .swf file(I'll call it movie1) that leads to webpages that are not in the movie. The webpage has a navbar which is a seperate .swf file (I'll call this movie2). I need the buttons on the navbar to link to a certain place in the main movie. Is there a way to use gotoAndplay in movie2 to go to a scene in movie1?
View 4 Repliesim wanting to link two swf files together but cant seem to get the code to work out correctly.
