View 2 RepliesI am trying to start a FLV movie that is using the flash stock FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf movie.. i don't want it to play on page load, but rather when the user clicks something. is there any way to do this with javascript?
View 1 RepliesI'm wondering what my best option is to delay the loading/playing of a movie that is set to autoplay?The videos are all external if that matters; is there any kind of code I can fire within a javascript function once I want it to start?
View 2 RepliesI have a webpage with a video component (swf file) with a separate .flv file and skin. The .flv file is intended to progressively load from the webserver.
In the swf file I have set autoplay=false to stop the move playing when the page is loaded. This works fine.
However, the problem is that the movie still downloads in the background. i.e. Each time the page is loaded, the .flv file is being loaded.
Is there a way to stop the .flv file being loaded until the Play button is pressed in the player?
My nav buttons load each a swf file through a holder. One off the external swf's is a gallery with autoplay. When going from the one nav button through the other after a few times when returning to the gallery (with autoplay) the gallery starts to flicker. When reloading it's not always the first pic that is playing. It's like this is still in the memory only you can't see it when loading another swf file.

Process.visible = false;
Cycles.visible = false;
stop();

I tried the following code and it works great.
on (release) {
loadMovieNum("main.swf", 1);
main.enabled = false;
}
How would I go about resetting the the button's status after another movie is loaded? Do I have to manually code for each movie loaded or is there an easier way using loops perhaps?
Anyways I have my main page that has a picture on it, then if you hover your mouse over the right edge of this image a tranparent window pops up with scrolling pictures that move in the direction of your mouse movement.
How can I have this scroll bar stay on always? I am looking thru the code but cant figure out exactly what code to put where to have this popup open when this page opens.
I'm having an issue with making a flash movie autoplay when a user enters a website. I am viewing the html in dreamweaver and I have autoplay selected. The website is [URL]
View 1 RepliesI want that when someone clicks on the button, my movie will start downloading instead of showing. (meaning, you can either save or open the file). Like downloading a clip from the web.
View 5 RepliesI currently have a 23-frame multilayered single-scene animation designed to loop continuously which I would like to add to my portfolio. As such, I am adding a Play button, which I would like to toggle to a Stop (or Pause) button. I currently have an instance of the Play button ("playButton") created.
(You can find this at pineboxmovingco.com/gear_redux.swf)
Besides imploring your assistance in providing the code, I must also ask if this requires (and best practice for) inserting an additional frame at the beginning for the ActionScript, as well as where/what layer to add an instance of the Stop button. I would like the movie to be stopped by default, presenting the Play button, toggling to the Stop button, and back to the Play button, each upon release.
How do I insert a start button on the first frame of a movie clip that will then disappear after the movie starts playing?
View 2 RepliesI need assitance in creating start button to a small flash movie I created.I like to put start button on very fist frame of the move .I did incest actionscrip stop() to prevent of it start running on load but now I need a button and scrip to start running.My skill in action script are limited.I try create simbol as button or movieclip.
View 4 Repliesi'm trying to write the code for a flash animation which uses different movie clips and buttons.all the movie clips are in the same layer but i've written code to make all but one invisible when the animation loads.
dance._visible = false;
harmonica._visible = false;
violin._visible = false;
i've then got buttons which are supposed to make the movie clips visible, but then disapear again after the clip has played.i want to be able to press one button to have one clip start playing, but then i want to be able to press another button which stops that movie clip and starts a new one playing.this is what i came up with but it doesn't work
on (press) {
violin.stop();
harmonica.stop();[code]....
this script is from one of the buttons which is supposed to start the movieclip harmonica and stop violin playing.i've got the same code for violin but the other way round.when i press a button it works fine and plays the clip which then disapears (leaving a default clip which plays all the time visible) but pressing buttons to interrupt the clip and play another one don't work properly. the movie clips don't stop and reset when they are interupted. they kind of pause instead. when i go to play a clip that has previously been interrupted it starts from where it has been paused and not from the beginning
I have a interactive movie clip with buttons. The problem I have with my movie clip is that whilst the movie is playing and I click the forebtn, it stops the movie. Ideally I would like the movie clip to start playing straight away when I press the fore button.

I'm trying to broaden my horizons with it and so I'm trying to do an update of a quiz program my employer has. Everything has worked well, except for the timer. The button that starts the game has two options, "study" or "exam"; if the study is selected, there is no countdown, just the score keeper. If the exam option is selected, the timer is show (counting up). But, press "Start" and while the quiz begins, the timer, in either case, does not.
I'm going to post the actionscript for the timer that was already there, as well as the start button. I'm hoping someone can explain how this timer is supposed to work and why it's not; and where the disconnect lies in pressing the start button and making it run.The timer is embedded in a movie clip, with two dynamic text boxes, that are for some have no instance name; and actionscript spread out over several frames.Frame 1:
Minutes = "00";
Seconds = "00";
Centiseconds = "00";
[code]....
Basically what i have is three buttons which can be pressed in a maximum of 7 different combinations. Each of these buttons has a movieclip underneath that advances to the next frame when the button is pressed. Each clip has two frames with actions, frame 1 has:
stop();
var option1:Boolean = false;
and then frame 2 has:
stop();
var option1:Boolean = true;
So when you press a button you have true, and false when the button is pushed again.
i already have a constant loop between frames 2 and 4. At frame 4 i think i need to have some code that detects which state the 3 boolean statements are in and then load a movie depending on which statements are true and which are false.
Got a button (imported png defined as a button in the library).The button is dragged onto the stage, given an instance name "btn".Clicking the button fires an eventListener which is doing all the right things, except...
btn.enabled = false;
...only changes the cursor from a pointing finger to an arrow. What?! It is still clickable.My intention is to disable the button so it cannot be clicked. But it can still be clicked. Not good.How do I disable a button and prevent it from being clicked?
How do i enable the button false after click? this sample doesnt seem to work[code]...
View 3 RepliesI am unable to get useHandCursor = false; to work on a button script. I need to have it on the button script, not in a timeline function (as the swf I am working on has many buttons and none have names on their instance, nor on the movies containing them). Is it possible to do this? I have also tried, this.useHandCursor = false; but also not working. By the way, this page isn't working in IE7. It is showing blank under the "Post New Thread" bar.
View 10 RepliesI'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 1 Replieson frame 1 I've got 10 movieclips and each movieclip has a toggle button to make it visible true and false.

if only 3 movieclips are visible make three_mc visible true

I am trying to display database details in a Flex datagrid and connected using HTTP Service. It was able to display details without any issue when I was working in the FlashBuilder 4.5, however, I deployed the bin-debug part in the Tomcat webserver to access it globally.
I am experiencing this error message when I am trying to access the swf file "HTTP request error Error: [IOErrorEvent type="ioError" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Error #2032"]. URL: http://localhost:8084/UA/details.jsp"
I tried to create the crossdomain.xml file and deployed in the root directory but still experiencing the same error.Here is my crossdomain.xml :

On very slow machines (>p200Mhz) I sometimes get an error that says "A script in the movie is causing macromedia flash player 6 to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you want to abort the script?" Yes, No.
I have a loop function that populates a listbox, sometimes the file it loops from is over 2000 lines, and takes a long time for the listbox to populate. In this time I get the error. If I hit No on the error everything works just fine. I am almost for sure there is no problem with my script, flash just thinks the loop is set to infinity or something and pops open the error box.
