View 1 Replieswould this be considered a bug in my code (AS3 and Tweener) or a problem with the SWF and its interaction with HTML?When I test the SWF in Flash, there's no breaking it.I can't break it at all works exactly like it's suppose to.When I embed it in Flash, it breaks in an odd way.I have two buttons, left and right. When the buttons are clicked, images on stage move in the direction they're clicked.When embedded, if I click a button really fast, the images start tripping over each other. Strange thing is, it's only to the left button and not the right, but the code is exactly the same for the right & left movement. If I click the buttons slowly everything works as expected.All of this while again everything works great in Flash itself. No errors.So, at the very least I'm trying to find out if this would be considered a but with my code or a problem with the browsers and the Flash player.
View 1 RepliesWhen I use the flash player to test my file it works great. But when I use the iphone OS it gives me these problems. I've looked up a lot of the related error problems and haven't found the answer

View 1 RepliesI have numerous swf files which work except one that is rather complex. When I debug the FLA of this problem file in flash CS4, it works fine. When I publish the FLA and open the subsequent SWF in Flash, it works fine. I open the same file in Flash Player or when I open it on a browser, the screen is white and nothing happens. When a right click on the browser frame and it offers me all the possibilities of a fully loaded movie, except that there is just a blank screen
View 1 Repliesim trying to make a navigation bar for my flash site. The idea is that all the content is displayed in small vertical lines, like this - and when you scroll over a line it opens out to a thumbnail. At the same time the other lines move outwards to accommodate the space taken up by the thumbnail. I wanted only the line your scrolling over to show but its kinda similar to the mac osx dock. Ive tried using examples of mac docks and none seem to do what i want them too.
View 0 Repliesi want to make a new portfolio site in flash... i was thinking on using as much server-side scripting as possible, to make in easier to update and add some features like flash guestbook/mail form and some other stuff... I was wondering... is it possible using php and mysql to add content to the portfolio without modifying the flash itself? Is there a tutorial regarding this? WHat i want, exactly is to be able to add photos, sites, prints and other stuff to my portfolio like i would add a post to this forum... the title being the title, the message being the description of the project and the pic i can attach being the photo itself..

View 4 RepliesMy problem is that the client I am making a homepage for wants the site to be done in Flash, but also wants to have the ability to make changes to the website on his own. Creating the website in Flash is not the problem rather what other program or method can I use, which is easy enough for someone who is not knowledgable in Flash or any other web design program, so that this client can make random changes to the menus and photos on this website?

View 7 RepliesI have to make a flash product displayer for the main page of their site. They don't know a whole lot about web development (but they know enough), so they keep asking me to do things that I keep telling them I can do.Well, I can't. What I need the thing to do is have the user hit a button, and the product change. They can also hit the back button for the last product. The previous and next product will be visible but not touchable. Almost like a scrolling wheel of products.

View 1 RepliesIs there a way to increase traffic for flash web site. Is there an action script to make your flash website "visible" for others. I heard that if I build a flash web site it will be difficult to get customers due to the fact that flash pages usually don't show up in the data bases. Is it right?
so anyhow is there a way to increase traffic or make my flash site "visible' in search engines. do you think building a splash page in html and then redirect them to flash is a good idea?
how make my buttons load text or images into a set area on a flash site.
View 3 RepliesI'm wondering how I would go about making a Mouse Trace, on a line that's preset but my choosing to let people enter into my Flash and/or progress throughout it. Basically, I have a picture of say, the number 5, I want to be able to have people use the mouse cursor to trace the 5 from one end to the next, and once completed the sites move forward. Though, I will be using my company logo which is a bit more advanced than a single number or letter form. If no one is sure what I'm talking about I've added a picture to demonstrate what I'm trying to do. Another idea I have if this one can't be accomplished, is a slide bar.Basically, it would look like a timeline control in say, VLC, and I would have the user drag a button from one side to the next to unlock and move forward. Though that may seem a bit more simple that my main idea, I would also like to be able to get really advanced with this second function and make a series of slide bars, say, 3, and they have to be slid in a certain manner, like slide bar 1,3,2 then it unlocks and moves forward.

View 9 RepliesI found for a XML driven photo stacker......at present you have to click each photo to move through the photo stack but I want modify the code to perform the following:
1. Keep the click photo to progress to the next photo feature (Lets calls this Normal Mode).
2. Allow the user to click anywhere on the screen (NOT) the photo which then puts the photo stack app into (lets call it Slideshow mode) with a 4 second pause between photos.
3. Once in slideshow mode, cycle through all the photos until the end of the photo stack then stop at the first photo allowing the user to repeat the above process.
In effect I want to add a slideshow function along with allowing the freedom to click through the photo stack.

I have been working on this for a few days on the localhost set up, retriving data as varaibles from a php string. There is a output.php file located on the server. [URL]. My Flash code for retriving the code(the swf in embedded into a menu.php file that is in this dir [URL]).
var theloader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
theloader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
theloader.load(new URLRequest("[URL]"));
theloader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, turnOn);
There is no error given by Flash, I just does not load. This is what I have tried (as far as the link is concerned)
theloader.load(new URLRequest("[URL]"));
theloader.load(new URLRequest("[URL]"));
theloader.load(new URLRequest("/output.php"));
theloader.load(new URLRequest("output.php"));
Still is not loading the file.

I was wondering if its still necessary to build a html site aswell as a Flash Site? Or is there a definitive and failsafe way to incorporate html into my flash site? SEO is a very important factor for me. I read this article: url...by Geoff Sterns in 2006, resulting in the following[code]

So this code works great in Firefox but fails miserably in IE6, Flash Player 9. So my question is does anybody have a workaround that works on IE6, Player 9?
