View 2 RepliesI work with 3d animation. Im have a problem with a personal website Im doing, I have a link in a button inside a flash movie to open a new window and play a youtube movie:
on (release) {
var jscommand:String = "window.open('http://www.youtube.com/v/b0L4XLODhAA&hl=en&fs=1&','win','height=344,width=4 25,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes');"; getURL("javascript:" + jscommand + " void(0);");
}
This works fine in Firefox but in IE it doesnt work, I then change the /v/ in the youtube link with /p.swf?video_id= and now I have the window open showing the small youtube thumbnail of my video but once a click play, nothing happens, I check it and is not loading anything.
I just want part of my flash movie to open a new window when the button is pushed instead of taking the user away from my site.

I am trying to get a html popup window to open when my movie hits a certain frame instead of a button. Im using the following code but it uses a button instead of a frame to open the popup.
on (release) {
customize the window that gets opened
0 equals NO.[code]........
I'm currently making an animation which will eventually exceed the 16,000 frame limit (don't ask haha), so, short of making two movies and having to just start up the next one, what is the code for loading a movie? I presume they need to be in the same directory? So basically all I want is on the last frame of the movie the code executes and the second movie file opens up and starts. I guess I'd want the current movie to close, too.

View 7 RepliesI 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 created a fullscreen Flash .exe. I want to be able to build a button that can allow you to close the exiting movie and open a new one (kinda like Lingo's OpenMovie command). I'm sure there's an easy way to do this in AS, I just can't find it.
View 1 RepliesGood day to everyone. I'm here today to seek help about Flash CS4 and ActionScript 3.0. The story starts when one day, my boss asked me to make a flash presentation about their upcoming user training for a newly developed software. I was enthusiastic and excited about it because it's been a long time that I did not use Flash (note that I don't have any experience in ActionScript 3.0). At first, everything was a bit rough as I need to recall how to properly use the frames to create a successful animation. As I was about to finish the project, my boss approached me again and asked if I could insert a menu page in front so that the users won't have to replay the whole thing again just to look for a little something on that part of the movie. So yea, at first I was abit hesitant to accept. I said that it will work with Powerpoint. But she's a total pusher and I was forced to say yes. Now I'm having this problem about how to make a flash button load a swf movie.I've tried searching all over the net for tutorials but most of the times the "getUrl" and other stuff are said to be outdated.

It shows the picture in full size with a close-able x in the corner. Is that possible? I'd do it in the flash movie, however some of the pictures are bigger than the movie itself (it's a style and it looks good) just that...
I'm trying to get an button in flash to open a pop-under window in the browser using JavaScript. So far I have had no success. Both functions are working fine independently but I can't get them to communicate with each other. Please see attached code.
View 1 RepliesWhat I want is to be able to insert a button into the flash document, and when someone clicks it, to have it open a new window and go to a certain url. To see what I am kind of talking about, go to my website, where I have the flash document without any kind of interactivity. It is the "Connect with TFC" flash file, on the right side of the page.

View 1 RepliesI have a html file with a flash movie-menu embedded into it. I'd like one of the buttons to open an external html page strictly in a new maximized window.

View 8 RepliesI own and I am trying learn and use the CS3 Master collection which comes with Flash 9. I own and had a website built several (9) years ago which I am trying to update the files, So basiclly, I am trying to make updated changes to my own orginal .swf files and todays Flash program give me the message of "cannot open protected movie" I was not ever aware we locked any of the oringal .swf files we produced.
View 8 RepliesFlash crashes when I try to open any Movie Clip with a text field. This happens with both CS 5 and CS5.5. I am on a Mac Running 10.6.8. The files in question began as a CS4 about a year ago and have been converted to CS5 and CS55 since.
This problem happens sometime but not always, but it has definitely gotten worse with the latest Flash Pro update. (Flash Pro CS5.5 v. 11.5.1.349)This appears to be related to Mac only. I have reprouced on two other Macs, but have not been able to on a PC. (all running CS 5 or CS 5.5)We have a Javascript that goes through the FLA and embeds the fonts in all text fields. (Because font embedding in CS5 or CS5.5 infamously does not work at all). Sometimes if you run this script before you try to open the MC it will apparently fix the problem and let you in, sometimes it will not.
if i wanted a flash button when clicked on to open a html page in a i-frame how would this be done? what would the script be for this particulare action?
View 6 RepliesI am making a flash site and there is a main SWF which loads and unloads all other SWFs into and from it. For example, there are links to pages Home, Biography, Gallery, etc. When you click the Gallery link, gallery.swf loads and it is added to the main SWF.
So here's my problem: when I test my movie, everything works perfectly, but when I open the SWF that was created by testing movie in a stand-alone Flash Player or a browser, those SWF's sometimes don't load. If I click Biography link, for example, it usually doesn't load biography.swf but if I click Gallery link, which may or may not load gallery.swf, and then Biography link, there's a greater chance that biography.swf will be loaded.
