I have a Bubble with a dynamic Text Field in the middle of it. I create multiple of these and have them float up. If you click it, I want the bubble to pop. Everything works, but only if you click the bubble at the edges. If you click in the middle, I get this error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
i'm using the centered pop up window script from: [URL]. i have multiple buttons in my flash movie which open screenshot html pages in external browser windows. the script works fine except when a popup window stays open. the rest of the buttons don't open/replace past that one popup. i tried changing the window name in the onRelease script to screen1, screen2, etc for each button, but that didn't work.
View 1 RepliesI have multiple mc's that contain input textfields. I want the results of these to appear one after another in the same dynamic textfield. Later they will be sorted alphabetically.
So far, I've been able only to get one item to appear at a time in the dynamic textfield--the next item replaces the first. A for loop didn't work.
Can anyone point me in the right direction to get the new text string to be added to the previous text string rather than to replace the first text string?
Anything at all similar I've seen creates a shared object instead of writing multiple strings to one dynamic text field.
I know fonts and flash are always an issue
How am I supposed to add fonts to a textfield that loads the info dynamically trough XML say I want to be able to have Arial, Verdana and Tahoma in both bold and Italic

I was wondering if I can point to a variable of a .txt file.My .txt file has four variables:&main= text here&&title = title here&&main2= text2 here&&title2 = title2 here&I load the first Variable on my dynamic textfield successfully.What I want to do now is, to display the second variable on the same dynamic textfield when button "next" is clicked.ctually I am using this code: (where "main" is the first text variable and "title" the second one).
Code:
var myLoadVars:LoadVars = new LoadVars;
myLoadVars.load("mytext.txt");

I created bubbles using the snow 3.0 tutorial from here at kirupa. I slightly altered the code so it would be for bubbles on a canvas of 800x500.The problem with the tutorial is that it is for snow moving downward on the y axis. for bubbles in the water, I need them going upward.which part of the code I need to alter so the bubbles will move up and not down? Also, I need the life of the bubble to last the length of the canvas.
Code:
init = function () {
width = 800;
// pixels[code]........
I'd like to create a Hangman game, only instead of having the player enter a letter, I'd like to have 26 clickable buttons on the screen. Now, I could make 26 symbols, but that seems ridiculous when I could create a letter_button.as class and just create 26 instances of letter_button, where I can just do something like letter_button.letter_id to get the value. That part's easy. The hard part is, uh. Well. 1- How do I create a button that will accept dynamic text? How do I add these buttons to the stage? Will parent.addChild(new letter_button(letter)) work? Or do I need something else?
Here's how far I've gotten in my solution, tell me if I'm barking up the wrong tree. To begin, I created a button called "Letter_Button". It has a text field on it called "letter_text". It's a MovieClip and it links to Letter_Button.as

View 2 RepliesI got to open a javascript popup with standard size in a website from flash. i.e. it should be able to click in flash, and open up a popup window displaying the content of the URL. I tried the fscommand method from macromedia but it doesnt work. ( btw my published file is asp.net although I don't think that makes any difference from html in terms of javascript)
Code:
_root.Movie.textfield.htmlText += "<A HREF='javascript:popUp('" + links[j]+ "')>" + Works[j] + "</A><br>"
There's this line I input into flash.. but it doesn't work either even though there is no error.
All the info I see on the net is for 3.0. I have a file that uses 2.0 and I need to try to get a popup window to work. The point is so that I can have a window come up at specific dimension when clicking on a button. This is some 3.0 script I got from the net.

I have some content on the stage of my project, and I would like for a TextInput box to pop up when you press a button. When I tried to implement this, it seems like the textInput box is at the lowest layer because things from the previous stage is appearing on top of the text input box instead of the other way around.I right-clicked on the text input box and adjusted the layer properties to 'Bring to Front' but it's still not working.How do I make the box and its contents appear on top of everything else on the stage?

I'm having issues with my action script in that only one of the mouseover / mouseout event works consistently which is the Mouse3Over functions. Mouse1Over function works fine on initial startup but stops working once I mouse over the 2 other images. For each gotoAndPlay, I've setup the timeline to go to that frame and play for 5 frames to show the image on the mouse over, and then on the mouse out is to go to that specific frame where i've setup to make the image disappear. After the 5 frames, on the 6th frame I added actionscript to that layer to stop();
Below is my actionscript code:
Mouse1Over.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, fl_MouseOverHandler_3);
function fl_MouseOverHandler_3(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndPlay(5);

View 1 RepliesI followed a tutorial at lynda.com about a popup menu in flash mx.The submenus were surrounded by invisible buttons so that when you rolled over them (i.e. outside of the drop down menus) the sub menus became hidden.The last bit on the tutorial said..... if you have multiple menus this would be slightly different and involves using "with".
It ended there, and that's precisely what I need.. I'd like to make 5 or 6 drop down menus closely spaced and horizontally placed across my movie.. anyone have an .fla with this? or perhaps a tutorial? I've searched everywhere...

View 2 RepliesI have 2 input textfields on the stage and 1 dynamic textfield.
-input1 is for quantity
-input2 is for page count
When a user enters a number into the page count it makes a calculation and places the outcome into the dynamic textfield. This textfield is for the individual price.All of this so far works. What I want to do now is create another dynamic textfield for the total. So the individual price is multiplied by the quantity and this result is put in the new dynamic text field. I have the code for that working but here is where it gets tricky (for me anyway).The total price is to start off invisible. When I roll over the individual price the total price is to appear (For a test lets just say when I roll over an area the total price appears).To stop cursor flickering this should be done inside a movieclip. So... I have create a movieclip and placed a dynamic textfield inside it. They all have instance names BUT how do I reference it in script?I need to tell the resulting calculation to be placed inside the textfield which is inside the movieclip. If it isn't inside a movie clip I can do it. But how to I reference it when inside one?
I've created a custom component with several inline item renderers that I use as a tooltip. The height of the component is unknown, as the data contents of the component are not known until runtime.
However, when displaying the tooltip, occasionally it extends beyond the boundaries of the flash application, thus, I'd like to be able to detect this occurrence and reposition the tip.
The problem is that the height and width of the component are, apparently, not available until after being rendered by the popup manager. (i.e. they are always 0)But, I do not know any way of finding out when the popup is actually rendered and, therefore, the height/width values available.

I'm creating a playlist for a music player, and I've got the song names displaying correctly in my songTitle holder MC, but there's limited space for the song names to be shown in, and I'm going to eventually have it inside a scrolling movieclip.

I've tried adding all combos of embedFonts, antialias, and blendModes I ran into, to no avail.how to mask dynamically created textfields with a non-dynamic (Flash IDE-made) mask.
Code:
for (var i:int = 1; i <= _size; i++) {
var pl_artist:TextField = new TextField;
//all embedFont = true and antiAlias commands no workie
