Using AS3, how can I attach links to outbound websites? I have a button graphic dragged onto the timeline. It is meant to function much like a "hot spot". So, I would like to attach the script to the button so that it will link to another website when clicked upon. But where do I add the script in AS3, and what is that script to be? ~ For example, do I need to go into edit mode where I see the 4 states, or can I simply attach it to the main timeline? - I'm looking to do whatever's the simplest!
Also, the button is called myButton in my library...can I use that same button for everywhere I want to add an outbound link to different websites, or am I going to have to change the name for every different link? For example, myButton02, myButton03? I'm hoping to use the same graphic button, and hoping the timeline will understand and follow the script instead of being confused and all links wind up going to the same site.

here's the problem...the whole site is in flash, and the text is scrollable...no big deal right...BUT he wants links throughout the text in various places. I was thinking of importing the text as a .as file, but how can I get the links to function properly? esp. since one of the links he has somewhere in the text is an "add to mailing list" link that I have set up to open in a separate borderless window...Can I script that all in the .as file, still import it as text, and have the links function as they should?
and will it be too complex for someone (who is lucky he can get his E-Mail without putting his foot in something) to update himself? Another difficulty... to do all this with a .as file I'm going to have to use a .css because he's a little font happy. the problem is the fonts are Not standard by any means. How do I load a font that a user dosn't have to the server so it can be referenced by a .css, and displayed via .as in a flash file?

I managed to get the swf to load fine on this page (www.diamondraindesign.com) until I added a full-screen invisible button that goes over the slides. It uses the same counter to sync with them so that whenever someone clicks on it they go to the proper page. Unfortunately, now only the link works to the first page item, and sometimes I can't even see the slides 'loading' text, just a white background. If I take the link button out, the slides are fine. Why is the link interferring, and how do I get it to sync and not stop the slides?

I have used a method to shuffle a part of a Array, but i noticed that it does not work very well.When i run this method I sometimes get empty array values.So if you would try the example below and test it out some times you would get a right result but sometimes a wrong result.For example when i run this i get in my trace output:
a,b,c,d,g,,e,f (here after the g it goes wrong)
a,b,c,f,g,d,e (here it goes right)
a,b,c,d,,g,f,e (here it goes wrong)[code]...

I have a mx.components.List component with a bunch of custom styles:
<mx:Style>
.dropDownListStyle
{
[code]....
I'm creating the list in AS:
_dropDown = new List();
...
_dropDown.styleName = "dropDownListStyle";
The List is then added as a popup with PopUpManager:
PopUpManager.addPopUp( _dropDown, this );
The problem is that the corners of the newly created popup are not rounded. I found that border-style is needed in order to get the effect, but adding this property didn't help. I'm building the project with Flex 4.1, but the List and its parent are MX components and it's a lot of work to migrate them to Spark.

I have created AS3 script for loading and parsing an RSS feed. I have successfully displayed the "title" node on the stage in a List Component with the instance name "blogList". Now I wish to use the corresponding "Link" node so that each item in the list will open a web page to the link for that story. I have been able to get each title to link to the last URL link in the RSS feed.

I have to make a list every document linked in a multiple .fla files. I can pull them up doing a find for .pdf but I can't figure out how to copy the links from the results field. Each file links to 1000+ pdfs, so i'd like to avoid doing this one at a time. Is there a way to export the results of the find function to a .xml or .txt file?

I'm currently working on a flash website. On the homepage I'd like to incorporate a dynamic list of links similar to the one found in the main content area of URL.. (you will need to visit this site for my post to make any sense)Due to my low level of experience, I do not expect myself to accomplish this in the near future, however I would like to work towards it. What i'm looking for are pointers of what areas of AS3 I should begin researching to achieve this?
- The links are taken from an XML file, and the site is updated through this.
- When a new link item is added to said XML file, they're pushed into an Array.
- The position of the object in this array is somehow referenced in the XML file, and this provides the appropriate link.
- There is some sort of conditional statement that sees if the link added is text or an image, and based on this a different tween is used for the rollovers/outs etc of each link.
- There is a maximum character limit set to each page of links, and when it is exceeded the links are pushed to the next page, and the dynamic text is updated accordingly, specifying # of links etc.
Is there a more efficient way to go about creating a list similar to the one found on ogilvy.com?just pointers on where I should start in building this sort of application.

I am trying to generate a list of links via xml using as3. I have created a movie linkHolder and a text field called linkText. I then add link text to linkHolder and add linkHolder to the stage. I have an eventListener attached to linkHOlder which calls a function and when I roll over the links it activates the function correctly. How do I give a unique id or reference to each button so that I can pull up the correct link associated with it? Here's some of my code:

I'm using the following mxml code for displaying a list of some data. I built a custom renderer which can have variable height. Each time a new data arrives, the scroller should go to the end of the list. I registered to the events which triggers an array change.
It's working fine if the height of items is the same. But if this is not happening, the scroller is going a little bit above the end.
If the height of an item from the middle of the list is bigger, then the last items are not visible.
<s:Scroller width="100%" height="100%" id="scroller" horizontalScrollPolicy="off">
<s:DataGroup
id = "lstComments"

I have followed the tutorial by b.rich on Arrays and attachmovie to try and make a movie with a list of links. the MC that I attach dynamically has a AS 2.0 class attached to it to handle its rollover and rollout states. An invisible button in the MC (instance name lbutton) carries the AS for the link and sits on the topmost layer. My newbie brain just cannot get around two problems:
1. The links just wont work.
2. I have quite a long list of these. How do I fit them all in the MC (all my attempts show the links spilling out of a container MC and onto the main stage), make the MC scrollable and then put it on the stage?

[code]I want to extend the list with hyperlinks. For example in every node I should have an href attribute also. Then I need to redirect users to the selected item. I know Flash has the URLRequest class. The little problem I have now is to get the selected item. It propably is because of the dataprovider is xml and I haven't done the correct casting.

I am VERY green when it comes to flash and this is my first ever project. What Im trying to accomplish; *a website for myself that is "simple" and clean to be used as an art portfolio/gallery of my work. -three sets of buttons that go to three pages all with carousels that hold my artwork for that type (ie. press the concept art button and it loads page 2 where there is a photo carousel that containing my concept art pieces.
-clicking another button will then call for a new page with a new carousel (I have three types of art that I am showcasing: concept art, fine art, 3D game art)
I have managed to create a flash page that has my name and the buttons and upon pressing the buttons it goes to the page I need. However the pages are at the moment empty due to the fact that I cannot get the carousels to work properly. I have watched the tutorial and dl the class package on 3D carousels. I changed the .as file within the package so that my carousel will be vertical by changing imc.x = Math.cos(imc.angle) * 450; to imc.y = Math.cos(imc.angle) * 450;

For some reason, the gotoAndPlay command in one of my frames won't work properly (I think that's the problematic command, but maybe it's another one in the movie).
Frame 1 consists of a button instance named "menu", which is a text reading "menu". When pressed, the animation starts playing and several menu options appear in a frame-by-frame animation, which lasts up to frame 7 where the movie stops.When the "menu" instance is pressed again, the playhead is released and the movie plays another frame-by-frame animation (from frames 8 to 16) of the menu options disappearing.So, in frame 16 there appears only the "menu" instance - just like in frame 1.
All of the above works fine.What I want to do is tell the player to go back to frame 1 as soon as it reaches frame 16, so the menu can open up again when the instance is pressed.I put this code in frame 16:gotoAndPlay(1)and it seems to be working fine, but when I press the "menu" instance for the third time (meaning, after it has already opened up and closed one time), the movie starts playing from frame 8 for some reason.

I am trying to sett up an workflow for a project. I am going to do the programming and a friend of mine the graphics.I would like him to be able to update the graphic on the final movie without the need of publishing the full project. We are sitting on different locations and usually work at different times. So i was thinking of making separate swf for each of the movieclips. And importing these at runtime.Then he could do his magic and preview this if he uploaded them.I have done some small tests and can't seem to get these imported swf to work properly. Should this work?Any suggestion on how to set up a good workflow for this project? Or at least what to search for.

I've got a mouse controlled person who fires circle bullets up towards oncoming enemies. but since i duplicated them, only the first bullet fired works as it is the only one that has the right instance name.What I mean is :The bullet is instanced bullet When it is duplicated to be fired, it changes to bullet1,bullet2 ect etc The hittest script on the enemies only reconize bullet, and therefore ignores all other shots except the first is there anyway of making it so it reconises all shots?

Working on FL8 AS2 I've always had a problem getting the duplicateMovieClip to work properly... So here's my code:
Code:
for (i=0; i<_root.level.length; i++)
{
for (j=0; j<_root.level[i].length; j++)
{
if (_root.level[i][j] == 1)
[code]....
In theory...for each pass shouldnt it:Reposition block0's x and y duplicate block0 on that position.move on but it seems only the setProperty works because my block0 eventually ends up at the last position.

I had an idea for a navigation menu where I could press down a button and it would stay in its 'down' state. In addition it could be navigated by using the keypad and those buttons are used to call up xml images. Getting this to work has been more of a headache/challenge than I imagined. I'm fairly close, the code I have was suggested to me and it is getting more and more untidy the more I try to craft it to my needs. The problem I have right now is that when the mouse clicks outside of a button, it reloads the image (in this case firstImage.)
Code:
_root.onEnterFrame function() {
jms_btn.onPress = function() {
