I'm a bit of a newbie at Flash and building my first website. I've built all the pages individually as different files and now I want to use AS to connect them all and link from my main page to the other files using buttons.
I thought I was on the right track with this code, but it returns an output error (both below).[code]...
I have two external swf files which I need to load to the main page of the website, one is the about page which consist mostly of text, the other is an image gallery.Both of them have the same intro animation at the beginning.
My problem is, while testing the main page using bandwidth profiler, the about page loads beautifully, while the image gallery plays its animation first before it even finalizes to load the whole page.
i have one main swf file now on clicking btn it will play a url video. once video finishes i want to play that main swf file start playing from that place.

View 4 RepliesI need to make this site like presentation for my next exam. I found a good template for a slide show. The presentation will be structured like this:
MAIN PAGE with sidebar which links to: slide one with slideshow 1slide two with slideshow 2slide three with slideshow 3slide four with slideshow 4 due to the nature of the code thou i cannot put the different slideshows into the same .swf file in different scenes (i copied and pasted them in each scene and modified the actionscript so they would refer to different pictures) because they will create conflict with each other. now they question is can i use the sidebar to link to different swf files but still make it look like it was just one big swf?
Is there a way to connect these three .as files (ThreeD.as, TwoD.as and InteractiveD.as) to the document class (MayGallery.as)?This is how I want my code to do.Click on the work btn, all the thumbnails from ThreeD.as, TwoD.as,and InteractiveD.as appear on the screen. These three .as files, I have used external xml file to load in the images.I tried to use include "ThreeD.as",but I got an error saying package is not nested in ThreeD.as. I don't know what that means.[code]
View 1 RepliesI have created a slideshow based solely on actionscript and a bit of XML. It includes a delay which dictates when the pictures fade in/ out. When I view the .swf on my computer the slideshow works perfectly. But, when the slideshow is put on my website the delay is not correct, meaning some pictures transition too fast or sometimes too slow, depending on which computer/browser is being used.
I have tried publishing the file in flash versions 7 - 9.
There are only 15 pictures that need to be loaded, each less than 50kb, so I don't think that really matters. The file size of the .swf file is less than 1kb, so I don't think that has any effect either.
So, I was wondering if there is anything that I may need to add to the code to make sure that things flow smoothly? Or is there some publish setting that I need to change?

UPDATE: Now I've moved the AMFConnection var declaration to outside the functions in Main, and commented out some trace() commands, and now it gives new errors:
Error #2044: Unhandled NetStatusEvent:. level=error, code=NetConnection.Call.BadVersion
at AMFConnection/init()[/Users/Jan/Downloads/amfphp1/AMFConnection.as:32]
at AMFConnection()[/Users/Jan/Downloads/amfphp1/AMFConnection.as:23]
[code]...
I'm trying to connect to AMFPHP on a server (with Flash AS3), and the swf borks when it reaches the .connect() stage. To make things easier (?) and more reusable (?), I've put all the NetConnection mechanics into a separate class, AMFConnection, which I call from the Main document class like this (details changed):
public function testConnection(e:*=null):void {
var conn:AMFConnection = new AMFConnection();
conn.table = "some_table";
[code]...
AMFConnection actually starts the connection and calls the AMFPHP service with the function gogogo(), and here's where the connect() NetConnection function just won't work. Here's the main section of the AMFConncection class
private var _netConnection:NetConnection;
private var _responder:Responder;
function AMFConnection()
[code]...
It also fails to display the stage, instead showing the loading dots. Now, eventually I'm going to move this application to the same server as the AMFPHP service, but even when I try it there with a relative url, instead of an absolute one, it still breaks down at connect(). I've tried changing the publish settings from local only to network only, to no avail.
I recently made a website and the links for the main page do not seem to link properly to their rightful pages when I put the site online (but it does work well when Im just testing the site on my computer in my Flash program) I know that the website I made is very large - so I was wondering if that could be a reason for why the pages don't load properly - also one of the pages links to another site and although that seems to work on my swf when I play it in my Flash player - it doesn't work when I put it online-
Finally my sound quality is not that great for the site. The songs are in mp3 format - would it be better to make them .wav files?
Or are all these problems related and its just that my computer does not have enough power to convert this massive flash website into a proper swf file? If this is my problem. What do I do?
The site that I made is [URL]

View 5 RepliesI am developing a portfolio page. There will be 4 main SWF files. One which is the home page (with a few keyframes for some navigation to an about page and contact page) and 3 pages each a different skill page.

I want to be able to click on one of the skill pages from " home" and have it load the new SWF created from the "webdesign" fla... I can't find any answer anywhere for 3.0 actionscript. I have this code so far, but it just writes the new SWF over the old one.

They don't answer their phones or emails. The website is hosted on their server, and I don't have the FTP details. I can mirror or copy my site onto my local computer, and re upload the site to a real company. I have access to my domain, so I can just point it to a new server after I have downloaded the website files to my computer.

I am a complete novice when it comes to flash and web design in general. I have purchased a flash template [URL] which I have been able to customise to my liking for a small production company. I am now completely stuck when it comes to integrating videos within the site.
I understand that I need to have an Xml playlist and some action script that references the videos to the player, but I have no clue on what to do.
I am looking to have a video begin as soon as the site loads and then have the buttons on the orange bar allow the user to navigate between other flv files. I would possibly be interested in including firther links on the video samples page.
I was wondering if there is a website from where I can download free mp3 files to use in my flex project? I am looking for some mp3 files using which I can create simple sound effects (e.g., you press a button, you hear a sound). I read flex can only play mp3 files, not wav files. Is this true? What's the best way to convert wav files to mp3?
View 1 RepliesI would like to allow visitors to download flash files from my website.
I have the following code one my first button:
Code:
download_btn.onRelease = function(){
getURL("blankWebsite.exe");
}
This works fine and opens a 'Save', 'Open' or 'Cancel' pop-up box.
For button two (the xml file which visitors can use to populate the blank website they have downloaded) I have used the following code:
Code:
download2_btn.onRelease = function(){
getURL("template.xml");
}
However, rather than giving the option of saving the file (which is what I want) the file opens in a new browser window.
way to offer the 'Save', 'Open' or 'Cancel' options for the xml file rather than it opening immediately in a new browser window?
