I have made a Flash banner for my website using CS3 but I wanted to add a hyperlink to it so that when someone clicks on my banner it will bring them to a different page on my site, kinda like the way ad banners work on most websites on the net. I have the official Adobe CS3 Flash manual as well as another one on Flash CS3 just as thick but I can't seem to find anything in either that explains how I can do this.
View 6 RepliesI want to add a hyperlink link button to my site, but it keeps buggering up the flow.Here's is the code for my site so far (minus the link code):
stop();function trans(event:MouseEvent):void{ gotoAndPlay(event.target.name);
}
[code]............
So there are three menu buttons, and the page flys in animations depending on the button pushed.I have another button named LINK, and I thought it would just be a matter of inserting the following code somewhere:
LINK.onRelease=function(){ getURL("http:url....); }
But no matter where I put it, it just makes my site play through all the animations one after the other regardless of whether buttons have been clicked or not, and the link won't work.Where should I put this code and is it correct? Also, once it's working, I want to copy it and make another button for creating an email.Is that just a matter of having a mailto: link instead of a hyperlink?

View 38 RepliesI have a button symbol on the top layer in a flash file. I have it fade in and on the last frame of the tween, I placed an action of:
on (release) {
getURL("[URL]", "_blank");
}
I copied that frame and pasted it on the last frame of the movie. When I play the movie, I get the mouse-over for the button, but when I click, nothing happens. How do I get the url to work?
I do not know really anything about ActionScript. I have completed a tut on it but that is all. I am trying to make a hyperlink from a classic arcade button but the code I found is apparently from AS2.

I would have thrown both my computer and probably my family out the window by now out of pure frustration. I used the tutorial to learn how to use flash mx to make button hyperlinks by using the actions/browser/geturl thingWhat I am struggling with is finding a way to outline or select each individual state so that the user can click anywhere in the state and have it link to another page rather then have to make a dot on the state
View 2 RepliesI want to hyperlink to a zip file using a button in flash. Is there anyway i can do this? the GetURL bit doesnt work. (at least not in mozilla). The final file will be a projector so it has to work from there. When a person clicks on a image, it links to a high-rez tiff in a zip file.

I'm currently trying to load specific XML data as a hyperlink into a button,the hyperlink is saved in the xml-file, and called upon by "childURL", now if I assign this function to the child_mc, which is formed into a menu dynamically within an instance named emptyMC, it will give me the link:
Code:
btnLink.onRelease = function() {
getURL(childURL, "_blank");
};
problem is I want to assign the link, when the child_mc-movieclip is clicked, to a button named 'linkbutton' on the main stage which will then load the page assigned in the xml-file when clicked.How would I load this data inside the button on stage? All codes I tried just open my browser and link to nowhere.
Am working on a website and just doing the final tests and evrything works apart from in internet explorer 7 when i click on the hyperlink( flash button) it says it can't find the url, which doen't make any sense as it works fine using mozilla.

I made a Flash banner ad that I want to put on my site for my client to view. In Flash, when I test it, everything works, button email link. I import it into the body of my DW html page, test it in DW...works. However, when I upload to my site, the button doesn't open an email link.

I'm trying to create a simple banner ad where the mouse hovers over the button and a panel shows up over some content of the site.[URL]I have two different .swfs: the container, which is the button and a loaded swf that has the animation that comes up when the button is clicked. The button is only 183 x 40px where as the loaded swf is 183 x 160px.When the loader swf is loaded, it takes the dimensions of the button.
Is there a way to have the loader swf be its original dimensions, so when the mouse hovers over the button, the loader swf covers some of the content on the Web site?Also, how can I change the MouseEvent to load the SWF when the mouse is only over the button and not clicking?
The simple code I have so far:
stop();
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
open_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, loadBanner);

The carousel itself is OK, everything works, including the click the icon to read the description.The only problem is that I need to have a hyperlink in one of the descriptions. I know how to hyperlink in HTML, and tried that in XML, but it didn't work. I also tried XSL or something to link but that just screwed up the SWF file itself. Here is my XML code.[code]....

View 5 RepliesI need to add a hyperlink to and advanced data grid. I would usually would us a renderer to do this, but in this case the columns i need to have hyperlinked will not have values in it until a "calculate button" is clicked. It's when I click the calculate button that the values to display in the hyperlink are created. So, what AS3 code could I add in the button.click handler to add hyperlinks.
