View 8 RepliesI am using the following script in Flash CS4 for a URL link[code]...
and I would like the link to open the new page in the same tab. In Safari it opens the link in a new window (when the default is to open links in the same tab). In IE it opens in a new tab, and also in Firefox (though in Firefox this is the default behaviour for me). Is there a way to override default settings and get the link to open in the same tab for all browsers?
I have read through several posts and threads on this subject and I'm still confused a bit. I have a flash menu that is working just fine. I want to put this menu into an existing web site that uses frames. I have tried two different action scripts and soon as I change the target to the mainframe, it all stops.[code]Any suggestions on why soon as I change the target.I did check names and IDs on the frameset and they match up with the target in the actionscript.

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tried searching all over the net for tutorials but most of the times the "getUrl" and other stuff are said to be outdated.
View 1 RepliesI have an incredibly irritating problem with ActionScript not recognizing a button. It's at the last frame, and when I load up the Actions panel, it tells me that it cannot have actions applied to it.
View 2 RepliesIn a mini flash game, I have a few different level select buttons, and they all attach to one "levelChange()" function, and I'm just wondering if there is an attribute that stores which button was pressed or how to determine which was pressed if not.
View 2 RepliesI am able to pass a variable from an html link that loads a separate html file and instructs the embedded file to go to a specific frame.But - I now need a link within an swf file on one page to open a new page and tell that swf to start on a specific frame and it is not working. Here is the code I use for the first example - works like a champ:
html file 1

<a href="fullpage.html?stateVar=19">Go here</a>
html file 2 swf embed code with variable info:

I bought one of those templates, and i was able to get around most of the stuff. But one last thing that I have issue with is that there is an AS2 script for a button, where you can change the page that you want to be updated. But every time that I click that button, it opens the new page. but then if I use the same button in the new page, and click on it, another page will open and that current page will get closed.

View 1 RepliesI am trying to have multiple links off site but have hit a brick wall. If I have the code listed below, it opens the second link as soon as you open the links page, If I have the"function onLinkClick (evt)", above btn6_btn I end up with the duplicate error message. Is there a way to have multiple link buttons on a page. I have played with this for hours.

I'm programming a Flash-based site designed by the client. The trouble is the SWF dimensions are small within the HTML page, and the thumbs show the larger images on roll over. The large images are meant to disappear on mouseout, but it's easy to move the cursor too quickly for the mouseout to be recognized -- so the image gets stuck on screen.Is there a reliable way to recognize a mouseout event, even when the cursor leaves the button/stage?
View 4 Repliesi have some preloader frustrations..dont point me to a previous preloader thread...i have been there already and no im not talking about any preloader that loads the WHOLE movie at the beginning, i know how those work... I need a tutorial/explanation that will teach me how to load a move 'button by button' or 'page by page'.
By this I mean, the first thing the movie will do is load the first 'page' and say you have a few more buttons on that 'page'. It loads all the buttons and that 'page' first..nothing else...then i click one of the buttons (no matter what order) and the 'page' switches to a preloader and then when the second 'page' is loaded, it is displayed.So many sites have this kind of preloader...but i cant believe how many tutorial sites only teach how to program the type of preloader that just loads the WHOLE movie.

Have an issue with several buttons in cs3. I want the buttons to open the page in the same window, and they will once, but I need this to be a reoccuring effect. here is the code.
[Code].....
When the button is pressed, it tries to open in a new tab or in a new window (depending on if you are using Firefox or IE) and first gets blocked by the pop up blocker.
How can I make this where it opens without targeting "_blank" ???
Code:
{
var targetURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://nameofwebsite.com/about.htm");
navigateToURL(targetURL);
this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goURL);

I have a flash website that opens in fullscreen mode (this is a customer request). Now I need to create some dynamic pages (php+mysql) but I cannot do them in Fles+php (I have no time to learn it). I just created some getUrl links that open in _blank targets but this is causing some problems: - in some browsers (firefox and safari) the link opens BELOW the movie, so, you don't see it until you close the flash website. - in other browsers when you click the link, the fullscreen mode will revert by itself to normal screen and the link opens in a new tab (chrome and IE 8) Is there a way to open links in front of the fullscreen mode?
In the past I created a flash website [URL] that, once you set it to fullscreen mode, allows you to see images on pop-ups (lightbox) in front of the fullscreen. I would like to do the same with php page, and not only jpg/gif/png images.
