I was wondering, how would I insert a link into a MC/Button?
See, I made an MC that has a Button inside of it for a website. All is well exept I dont know how to insert the link to make it go to another page from the website?
I recently bought this template: [URL] but I have a big problem. I want to add a hyperlink over the big images which appears when you click on bedrooms for example. There are 9 small images in the right side and 1 big image on the left. I changed all the images but I want also to add hyperlinks on some big images. The action script import an xml file like: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?><root>

I've got a flash calendar and if you click on a specific date it shows the event in a text box for that date. Unfortunately, I can't figure out how to insert a linkable text into that event area. The flash file is associated with XML files for each month and also with an XML.AS file. The calendar (FlashGordon) can be downloaded here: [URL]Here is the code for the XML.AS file:
// XML LOADING FOR CALENDAR DATES AND IMAGE DISPLAYED
var xml:XML;
var displayImage:String;
var scope:MovieClip = this;
[code]....
If I insert a link inside the event line, for ex.: <event date="19" event="<a href="http://www.google.com/">Test</a>"/> the calendar won't show any events and obviously it's not working.how can I insert a linkable text in the event area of the calendar?
In textfields it's possible to insert a HTML-style link. Is there any solution to activate a actionscript function from a link like this in the text?I would like to load another text into the textfield when clicking a word into the text.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to develope a texteditor for my websites in As3, but I'm facing a issue, I can make my selected text bold, italic, untherline etc, I can insert a link, to an email, per example, but if I try to insert more than one email link, my textarea looses all previously inserted bolds, italics, etc, even all the line breacks are gone.
What can I do to avoid this, this is the piece of code to make an email link

i created my subMenu buttons fine, however i only know how to link them to a picture/url address, my goal is to have the user click the subMenu button and open the image or page right below the menu bar in the "stage" area of flash. I read about IFrames but i'd rather create the whole site in flash .Here is the code for my subMenu...
btn_34th.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClickHandler);
function buttonClickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("images/34th.jpg"));
trace("I'm Clicked!");
Again, this works fine, i just want to have the image take up the "white" space on the stage area, very similar to an IFrame.
i have a simple flash intro, but 5 days and I cant insert a url in a buttom, i tryed and itroutes to my own pc [URL], as opposed to [URL]
View 2 RepliesI've trawled the web, everyone with different ideas on how to call up a mailto link in AS3. What I'm looking for is this: I have a box, that is coverted to a button symbol given the name 'mailto'I have another layer for the actionscript I have imported 'flash.net.navigateToURL' and 'flash.net.URLRequest'
I know I need to create a function or a variable to link in the already created button. Do I also need to import the MouseEvents?
I created this FLA to get used to CS4 (i was previously using8)Everything works wonderfully, I would just like to know how to use AS3 properly, without having to call defeat and create the FLA again using AS2.
I made a little movieclip animation, it can be seen on [URL]. I have written the code for it but then have realised that I need to insert a link to the images, each image is supposed to have its own link. When I go to insert a button flash somehow decides to ignore part of the code I wrote and not function properly therefore I cannot have a link and a working animation going on at the same time. The worst thing is that I need to put two separate links in the same movie clip. Is there any way of doing it so it wont disturb the code? or maybe is there a way to insert a link to the images?

View 2 RepliesI'm attempting to put together a 'French Accents' keypad (basically a few buttons that insert a French character into a textfield when pressed). At the moment im having the following issues with it:
The french characters always appear at the end of the string despite where the cursor is focused.
I can't get the cursor/caret to focus after any letter generated by a press of a button rather than a keyboard input.
Here is my current button code:
ActionScript Code:
on(release){
//The getCaretIndex method returns the index of the blinking insertion point (caret) position.
[Code]....
I have a series of buttons that when clicked will enter a character into a dynamic textfield. Here is my code:
on (release) {
//if the focus is on the answer text box
if (_root.answerFocus) {
[code]...
This works but I dont know how to get round the following issues: Once a button is pressed the cursor moves out of the textbox once the character is placed inside, each character always goes to the end of my text line (as += implies but I can't find a workaround).
I have an an array of objects. I populate the datagrid from the array. The nmber of columns in the datagrid is fix i.e.5 and the first column always shows serial number (0,1,2,3,4). I have a link button called 'CLEAR' in the last column of the datagrid.
1> How do I make the clear button visible only when the row is particularly clicked 2> When the clear button is clicked, how do I make the contents of that particular row cleared. Not deleted, only cleared to insert data again. Also, the serial number (0,1,2,3,4) should not be cleared, nor deleted. How to do this ?
I am trying to make a button in such a way so that after you clicked on it, the button will change colour, indicating that the link has been visited.

View 7 RepliesI bought a flash template last week and have more or less being able to modify it to the way I wanted, its 95% done & I've had to make a couple sacrifices due to my lack of flash knowledge.
The blog on the website is now on a subdomain (I'm using wordpress for the blog), I also had a registration email form on my current site which is now gonna be on a seperate html subdomain too.
My problem is that I have one page on the flash template that I wanted to use for the blog but as that's not easily done. Instead of using the button to open an empty page, is there anyway I can redirect it to the Blog on the subdomain & open it in a blank window/tab?

View 2 RepliesI'm completely new to flash and have figured out most of the basic features on my own thus far, but I'm completely stumped with this one issue of linking a pdf to a button. I'm using Flash CS5. I've used the recommended code on code snippet, I've used codes that were recommended and I've tweaked it, but it still not opening my pdf. Here is the current code that I am using. This is from the code snippet. I've used this code to get my different scenes and it works, don't know why I'm having such a hard time with this.
AppPage_IndividualUSDoc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToNavigateToPDF_5);
function fl_ClickToNavigateToPDF_5(event:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("APP_IND_US.pdf"), "_blank");
