I am trying to stop/pause my MC when I click on an image.
EG:
on (press){
gotoAndStop._currentframe;
getURL("image1.jpg", "_blank");
}
But when my image loads into the new window and I go back to the main content window on where I clicked the movie has already started playing!

I'm encountering a problem with the getURL function. When I have a button with the following AS
Code:
on(release) {
getURL("http://www.google.com", "_blank");
}
and test it within Firefox (0.9.2) then it loads within the same tab which isn't what I want obviously. In IE it loads a new window without problems. This used to work but I after reinstalling winXP with SP2 it doesn't work anymore
i'm trying to construct a flash menu with simple getURL functions. However, i need to specify the dimensions of the new URL. how do i do this?
example :
on (release) {
getURL("
http://www.adobe.html", "_blank");
}
I am creating a gallery type site, I am loading xml data externally creating duplicate movie clips and it all works fine, my only problem is I want them to go to a URL, I have one of the nodes with the URL and in my actionscript I am calling a function to getURL on press, the problem is on each separate movieclip it links to the URL of the last movieclip in the stack.
View 1 RepliesWhen I use:
on (release){
this.stop();
getURL("page.html", "_blank");
}
Why is it that when that new page window is loaded the background flash window then runs my
on (rollOut){
this.play();
}
function? I am trying to pause the timeline I am clicking from in Flash. If I take this line out (this.play() it pauses, but if I were to go that way how would I start getting my MC to play again when the user gets back to the flash window?
Trying to see if someone can guide me to a way I could stop my earlier tweens and onRollOver function when my onPress function is launched. What I worked out here with that McX/YScale.stop(); and that target9_mc.onRollOver = null; is kind of working but I don't want the onRollOver function to stop until the onPress function begins.

I have this action on my buttons:
on (press) {
_root.nPage = "company";
AnimationMC.play();
} on (press) {
gotoAndPlay(3);
}
I am trying to have a button change frames on the main timeline (gotoAndPlay X) and also load a MC on the same click. I think what is happening is because the on(press) is separate it is causing my pages to load at different times when I click real fast when AnimationMC is playing. However if I wait for the animation to load first it works %99 of the time.

I need movieclip to reach frame 25 and then jump to "organos de gobierno", but although it is stopped at frame 25, it does not do the jump to the other frame .... aAny idea why?? Please i need to fix this to finish a job. And in my previous times using this it always worked
I have a flash file, and in it is a movieclipbutton. When you roll over the button, the button has to grow in size and change color. This animation is 10 frames long. When you roll out, the button goes back to it's original size and color, this animation is also 10 frames. But when you roll out of the button before the 10 frames of roll over animation are finished, the movie jumps to the rollout animation, which starts with the button in grown size; so you see a little jump in size. To fix this, I did the following for the onRollOut:
Code:
this.btn_1.onRollOut = function() {
this.gotoAndPlay(45 - this._currentframe);
}
This however, doesn't work. When I put a trace(this._currentframe) inside, it returns 1. But this isn't right, it should return something between 10 and 20! I have the .fla file on the internet:[URL]
Working on a linear movie and I want to do dynamic page numbers, i.e. when on the page, display that you are on page "x" of "xtotal" I created a dynamic text box, and tried to set it equal to ._currentframe, but that didn't work. Is there a way to do this?
View 2 Repliesthis code should work, but doesn't. Am I missing something? I'm simply trying to disable the button "cardSearchBtn" when the root timeline enters frame 6 (along with two other play actions).
Code:
if (_root._currentframe != 6){
cardSearchBtn.enabled = true;[code].........
I figured out why my external, embedded player wouldn't link back to my site: I was using _self rather than _blank, which I'm sure many of you knew.
However, my next stumbling block is that any subsequent link now needs to be authorized if you are using a browser with a pop-up blocker (IE7, Firefox, etc.). What I've noticed is that YouTube has somehow completely bypassed this, and I need to figure out how.
First, check out this site for an example of my player and YouTube's player on the same page: [URL]
Note in the lower-right the YouTube clip. Click that first. Notice how the pop-up blocker doesn't ask for permission? Then, beneath that is my "Comic Wonder" player. If you click on any links, it'll work, but only if you allow your pop-up blocker to allow it.
how YouTube has bypassed that?
I have a movie clip named "restlink." I drag it to frame one on layer "link," and give it an instance name of "link1." At frame 100, I create a keyframe on "link" layer, and change the instance name to "link2." In frame one of the "actions" layer, I enter the following:

I need to stop an flv movie when I click a button that is not on the control bar. e.g. I have three pages in flash and when I navigate from the videos page after starting the playback of the movie, the audio from the movie continues to play. I have no idea why this is.

View 1 RepliesI am making a soundboard for a school project. I have made movieclips with the jaws moving on the different people. I have all the movie clips on the same frame with the first frame of each movie clip blank. I have the stop(); command on the main timeline, however when I test the movie the movie clips still play. I am looking for a way to stop these movie clips from playing until the corresponding button is pressed. Is there some sort of "stop all movie clips" function?
