ActionScript 2.0 :: Use Back / Foward Buttons In IE?
Feb 23, 2004
I need to know how to use the Back/Foward buttons with IE. I have a movie that has several frames. Each frame is a section of the page. If you go to a different section of the page, I want to be able to use the back button to go back to the previous section you were at. I have searched around and found this, but it is of little help to me. I don't know anything about how to use Javascript and flash. URL] I have heard rumors that there is a way to do this with named anchors?
Anyways I am using action script 3.0 and I created multiple layers using just one scene. I created a layer with lables on them to mark where I want my buttons to point to and go to. I have the stop (); on the first frame. And I made my buttons mostly interactive with movie symbols and tweens.My first scene I have 2 doors, the user can pick which door to go to and it takes them into a different path.I made the buttons that are clicked to go forward, and then I tried to make an invisible button on the button edge of the scene to go backwards However, the PROBLEM is when I click my button to go backwards I am stuck on the first page and can't move forward.
function gotoOne(evt:Event):void{ gotoAndStop("one")}backbutton1.addEventListener("click",gotoOne); function gotoFour(evt:Event):void{
Soo this is a simple problem, i have a 60 frames movie in a Layer, and another layer with 2 buttons.I want the movie to play foward while one button keeps PRESSED, and to play backward when we keep pressing the other button.i tryed this simple code but it didnt work out.on (press) {nextFrame();}
I used this code in the button that plays foward but it only moves 1 frame. I am realy new a this,
I think to create an animation (like moving object foward) we can used frame to frame animation and also we can used actionscript tween class.And my question is, if somebody talking about 'timelined animation', which one is it? is it frame to frame? or is it actionscript? or is it both of them?
is it possible to stop and fast foward an animation timeline.I have intermediate skills but a client what the timeline to play like a movie.I dont want to tell them its not possible if there is a way
I am building a image presenter in Flash with as3 but i need a piece of code to make the two buttons work correctly. The code i have is as2 and i get 10 errors using it.[code]
One if the reasons I used Flash 5 for my personal company website was the really simple programming through action script buttons an fill-out-forms (you know: Gotoandplay, fill out this, click there and so on ...).Im a good artist but im terrible att programming! Anyways now I got one of the latest versions of Flash and action Script is definatelly still there but in soooo many versions and and those action script buttons and fill-out-windows are not there any more, so Im lost! I dont have Flash 5 anymore otherwise I would use it.
Is there a button somewhere so I can get back my "useless newbie action script buttons"? Or what should I do?
I am making a test that when you hit next it goes to a specified frame and if you hit back it goes back to the previous specified frame. The code works when I go through the code once all the way forward and back but once I try to move forward again it skips over all the inbetween pages and ends at the final page. The back button code works fine it is only the NextBt code that isn't working right.
The tutorial uses a multiline textbox to display data from MySQL but I wanted to know how I would code if I used a SINGLE LINE textbox and added a BACK AND NEXT BUTTONS to show one record at a time.

I have recently been asked to design a website in Flash, although I have done quite a few webpages using flash I have never used the swfaddress method to enable browser buttons, and for the past year i have only don't html site. For some reason none of the source files I download are working, the demo works from the site but the source files don't (for example [URL].. I don't know if I'm just forgetting somthing or what my issue is. Another odd thing is I can't seem to open the [URL]..

Thought I would give more info on my problem creating a button in Flash CS 4 AS 3. I have an intro page that users see when they type in my url. On the intro page I have a ENTER BUTTON that takes the user to my homepage and the enter button works fine. Here is the AS for the enter button:
The buttons in the flash movie also link to movie frames in the flash and external html pages. Once movie plays and stops, all links work fine, the links to the anchors and the links to the other html pages, however when I try and link back to the flash movie from an external html page, to specific frames in the flash movie, the html link will link back to flash movie frame fine, however once your back in the flash movie, none of the buttons in the movie work anymore.I have embedded the flash movie in an HTML and published it with anchors,"home, about, events etc.used this code for several buttons in the flash linking to frame anchors in the movie:
/////////////////////////// home_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, handler); function handler (event:MouseEvent):void
I am an extreme newbie at Flash and AS3.I've just been reading all I can this past week and trying to put together what I had hoped was a simple project in flash for our Website banner. I'll try to describe my project and the part that I am stuck at.[URL]..
You'll see a large green banner near the top of the page that advertises one of our products. In Flash, I have created a rotating banner with five images like the one shown on our site. I have it rotating on an 8-second basis, and I have it so that when someone clicks on my invisible button (the whole banner part) that it goes to that product's web page. I've also added five small buttons in the bottom right corner, so that someone can hover over them and go back to one of the rotating images if they missed what was shown, etc.
I have figured out how to create the buttons and have them shown red, when hovered on each layer. The part that I am stuck at, is I don't know how once I write my action for each button, to have them link back to one of these rotating banner images. I know this is possible, I just don't know AS3 or any programming for that matter to understand what my options are for the function script. I have each one set up as an instance so that I can add the EventListener when they click on it, I just don't know what to put other than a URL, since that is all I am familiar with. If you know how to get me to link my project to this forum so you can see the actual project,
I have a project I've been working on that, when properly coded, has a "main menu" with 4 "doors" (buttons). When the corresponding buttons to these "doors" are clicked, it should go to and play an external .swf file.If that doesn't make sense, think of a DVD menu. You click play movie, it plays the movie. When the movie is over, there's two buttons on that swf file to either play the movie over or go back the main menu, which is an external .swf file (Remember, we go to the movie from the menu, which is a seperate file). So far, the buttons work. The menu works. However, from the movie, at the conclusion, when I click the button to go back to the main menu, it displays the movie clip and the buttons, but none of the buttons work. I'm starting to think it has to do with the fact the main menu was written in AS3 and the movie was made in AS2. If anyone can assist me in being to able to keep both files and still navigate between the two, being able to bring up the menu from the movie and be able to play the movie again, and so on and so on. Here's the code for main menu, which I guess acts as the parent file, and the movie. If I get this to work, I essentially would duplicate the same actions for the other 4 doors, once I complete the environments for them.
Main.Fla/Swf (written in AS3)
(This is the action on the first frame, that has all the buttons. For this question, I'm just trying to properly code for 'Door4', which is the "door" to the movie.)

I'm trying to create a wizard that will guide a user through a lot of individual containers I have built. I have a main page that has many checkboxes for the user, each checkbox ties to a container. What I would like to have happen is once a checkbox is clicked it makes that container visible, then the next and back buttons when clicked only go to the next visible container; thereby leaving off any containers from the wizard that were not checked on the main page.
I have a Flex application which uses the BrowserManager class for enabling deep linking within the application. The URLs work fine through all browsers but the back/forward buttons work only with Firefox and Internet Explorer. Even that is a bit flaky and sometimes doesn't work. The buttons don't work in Chrome/Safari or any other browser. How to make this work properly?

i've a little problem with my buttons wich are movieclips if you rol over and out to fast they stay "on" (they do not come back to initial position) i've used actions: rolover >goto and play frame 2there is a stop on frame 1 and 5rolout > goto and play frame 6 (so it plays to frame 9 and come back and stop on frame 1 :initial position)
I've got a situation where .swfs are loaded by buttons from another .swf to a higher level.each button loads its own external movie. What I would like to know is how to load these external .swfs in succession, either forward or backwards, with forward and back buttons, as well as keeping the specific buttons in effectI guess it would be kinda like the way you search through the forums. You can either click the number that corresponds to the next page, like "2" for example, or you can click the forward button that looks like ">". Same for the back situation. So it would look something like this: "<12345>". You could either click the ">" button to move all the way to 5, or click each number separately
Lately I have been seeing flash based sites that will work with your browser back and forwards buttons. I have also noticed on some sites that if you right click on the .swf they can have links to parts on the site in that as well.

I don't want to have to load a flash site in another browser window.
But I find myself and clients quickly clicking the back button to get out of different sections in the flash movie. But when they hit back they find themselves out of the entire site.
I have an animation that I want the user to be able to move back and forth by clicking Next_btn or Back_btn buttons. Here's what I've done.
[Code]...
I can navigate through the movie correctly, until I navigate back to frame 1 ("start"). After this, when I click on the Next button, the movie goes to the last frame without stopping at "KMT2".
