I have my main swf embedded into a html page, and what I want is that when a user selects a certain button it unloads my main swf and loads up a different one in the same HTML page.

View 0 Repliesi found a script that unloads my external swf inside a movieclip when i click a button on my main screen. this script causes the external flash inside my moviclip to close and unload when i click the close button, which is what i want!. the only pain in the butt is it preloads the external flash when you go the flash site and i dont want that. i only want the script to close the external swf. if anyone is curious book.swf is the swf in the movieclip i am trying to close.[code]
View 1 RepliesI am having an issue loading and unloading external SWF's. Here is what I'm trying to do:
Frame One Loads external SWF
Code: contentTutorial.loadMovie ("tutorial.swf",1);
Frame Two: Shows data Frame Three: Unloads frame one SWF and loads a new SWF. Code: contentTutorial.unloadMovie("tutorial.swf"); contentProblem3.loadMovie("problem3.swf",0);
This works but the problem I'm having is that when problem3.swf loads it will not play. You see the first frame but no animation.
If I switched SWF files and loaded problem3.swf in frame one and tutorial.swf in frame 3 the animation plays fine for problem3 but hangs for tutorial.
I've tried multiple methods (createEmptyMovieClip, loadMovieNum) of loading/unloading these with all the same outcome.

View 2 Repliesi am working on a survey form in MX-04 Pro. I have the main .swf file embedded in an HTML page. The document's width is longer than the viewable screen so the person taking the survey has to scroll down to answer the remaing questions and hit the "continue" button to proceed to the next page/frame in the movie. When the user hits the "continue" button the next frame in the movie appears but the HTML page is still scrolled to the bottom. Is there any ActionScript I can inclued in the frame or continue button to make the movie/survey appear at the top of the html page when the user hits the "continue" button?#2

View 1 RepliesI have an animated logo swf file that loads and runs once on the home page every time the page loads. The logo has been updated to appear in three different colour schemes. I want one scheme to load and when the page is refreshed or revisited, one of the other colour schemes to load in its place. They can appear in any random order, just a different one to the one that played before reloading.Can someone point me to an answer or tell me how to do it? I have found a way in JavaScript but this only works on plain images, not swf files.

Is there any way to tell which item a user selects from a List? I already have a "change" event listener, but that doesn't tell me WHICH item was clicked (at least, I don't think it does.)
[edit: forgot the XML part...the list is generated from an xml file:]
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<songs>
<song display="Hallelujah Chorus: A Soulful Celebration" url="001.mp3">

The reason I need to know which song I'm on is so I can reference the <composer> child tag for the correct song.

View 4 RepliesA student of mine is wanting to create a drag and drop game in which the user selects a possible answer for a range, drags it over a object named as "dropzone". the correct answer is left over the dropzone, and the user clicks the check button they need to be sent to a frame displaying "correct" - otherwise, sent to a frame for incorrect.I currently have a set up in which the user is given an auto response using a dynamic text box and all is done on the one frame, but this student wants to be a little different.

[Code]...
My problem is that when the site loads the 1st time and click from the menu to go to the 2nd frame (1st content page) then i have to wait at about 3-4 seconds to load my html content. The same for the 3rd frame. If these two content pages load for the 1st time, then the pages open immediately. What can i do for this? Is there a way to open this content pages more quickly, or place a loader, and with what code?
I have AS2 code that does the following:
1. The Main .swf loads a new .swf into a higher layer (level5)
2. That new .swf is a holder for a movie controls - which play through the quicktime and...
3. At the end of the movie there is code that Unloads the movieplayer .swf and forwards the Main .swf to a new frame marker.
I now need to change this to AS3.My loading code in the Main .swf for AS3 is this (and it seems to work fine):

var MOVIEloader:Loader = new Loader();MOVIEloader.load(new URLRequest("ANIMATION_01.swf"));MOVIEloader.x = 0;MOVIEloader.y = 0;addChild(MOVIEloader)[code]...........
I have an HTML page with buttons. Each button needs to have a getURL to open the Flash site, but then somehow, needs to also load the appropriate swf into that Flash site... My reasoning is because I have some scripts under my site that need to be in HTML (or PHP) for search engines, that way I don't have to do the whole site in HTML.. I hate having a HTML index page, but it's the only solution I could come up with. So, when a visitor selects any of the navigation buttons, I don't want them to have to select that button again, when the Flash site loads. how to do this for Flash 7 / AS 2.0? Or if there are any posts here about it?
View 2 RepliesI have a little Flash intro SWF i prepared and handed off to a friend who is implementing my intro animation into an HTML site.... The problem is that once the SWF (intro) finishes, there is a short gap (blank white page) before the actual HTML site loads. Is there a way around this? Is this something i need to code on my side (AS3) or is this a problem for my HTML/javascript buddy to figure out......or both.
View 3 RepliesI have two SWFs on an HTML page. One loads fine and the other (loaded externally) apparently fails.
I get this from the server:
Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2036: Load Never Completed.
I get this when testing it locally in Safari:
Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL Not Found.
I don't really understand where the hick-up is... because my paths are actually quite simple. All my flash files on the website are located in the same folder. The first one loads in fine, but the one being loaded into it does not. When viewing the SWF by itself, everything checks out as well.

i ask for patience I will summarize as briefly as possible Imagine an animated presentation, interactive and extensive, with multiple ways or different possibilities The method I'm using is to divide in several different SWFs, otherwise it would be ridiculously heavy.But there lies the problem: When I want to load another SWF, it ends up overwriting the original and will become increasingly slow and overloaded, because it will consume too much memory and frames per second decreasing each new SWF loaded ..I wonder if there is any method to unload the SWF itself by button and go to the next OuvirLer foneticamente
View 1 RepliesEverything is embedded in an HTML site. The HTML loads a preloader that then loads the actual flash movie. Inside this movie I created a few buttons, inside a scroll bar movie clip. I want the buttons to load a whole new movie inside the same html. The code I'm using in the button is simply:
on(release) {
loadMovie("new_movie.swf", 0);
}
The problem is that it works beautifully in the Flash movie tester but doesn't do anything when tested inside the browser, embedded in the HTML. I think the problem is that the HTML embeds as an object the first movie, the preloader for the menu movie, not the menu movie itself.
