View 1 RepliesI'm working on an entirely flash-based site for a client who has already been using Blogspot for his News/Homepage updates. He wants to continue updating through Blogspot, but wants the blog to automatically fill in the text box on the flash site Homepage. I'm not sure if this is possible, or how I would go about doing it.
Here is the blogspot page: [URL]

I followed the tutorial "ActionScript 3 XML Basics" but it left out how to add the link from the xml file to the text area of flash. Does anyone know the actionscript code to do this?[code]
View 5 RepliesI followed the tutorial [URL] and it works perfect. But I wanna go a step further, how do I link a word in the external text file? It seems that html code <a href="www.me.com">CLICK</a> doesn't show as a link, but exactly as text.
View 1 RepliesI am wondering how to "link" any sort of text file (.txt or .doc) to a dynamic text box where once the swf file is played the text shows up. In all of the examples I have seen on here you have had to hit a button to load the info once the swf is loaded.
View 1 Repliesi'm attempting to resolve a problem with targeting. i would like to target multiple iframes from a link that has been pulled into a flash document. basically, the link needs to load a title and an mov file. the mov file has to be loaded into an iframe, but the title could be loaded into another dynamic text field.. i'm using a text file that is loaded into a dynamic text field. the link within the text file currently looks like this:
<a href="video/AlzyGramp.mov" target="videowindow" onClick="parent.titles.location.href = 'alzy.html'; return true;">Alzy Gramps</a>
but it doesn't work. is there a problem with flash htmltext reading javascript? i even installed the flashjavascript gateway.
I am an extreme newbie at Flash and AS3.I've just been reading all I can this past week and trying to put together what I had hoped was a simple project in flash for our Website banner. I'll try to describe my project and the part that I am stuck at.[URL]..
You'll see a large green banner near the top of the page that advertises one of our products. In Flash, I have created a rotating banner with five images like the one shown on our site. I have it rotating on an 8-second basis, and I have it so that when someone clicks on my invisible button (the whole banner part) that it goes to that product's web page. I've also added five small buttons in the bottom right corner, so that someone can hover over them and go back to one of the rotating images if they missed what was shown, etc.
I have figured out how to create the buttons and have them shown red, when hovered on each layer. The part that I am stuck at, is I don't know how once I write my action for each button, to have them link back to one of these rotating banner images. I know this is possible, I just don't know AS3 or any programming for that matter to understand what my options are for the function script. I have each one set up as an instance so that I can add the EventListener when they click on it, I just don't know what to put other than a URL, since that is all I am familiar with. If you know how to get me to link my project to this forum so you can see the actual project,
I've seen alot of instructions online on how to assign a hyperlink to an image. Alot of them say to convert the image to a symbol first and then add the appropriate Actionscript code (getUrl). I'm just wondering if there is a way to do it without converting it to a symbol (converting it to a symbol seems to add an artifact to one of the borders of the pic). Does anyone know if this can be done? Or must all images be converted to symbols to get links assigned to them?
View 2 Repliesam currently facing an issue with displaying the % sign in my dynamic textbox which is loading a text file saved in UTF-8 format. Am using Flash CS5.
my text file contains this:
varEn=Discounts up to 10% on any goods bought today!
And my code for this part (AS 2.0):
Code:
if (lang == 'en')
numline = this.varEn;
Text1.text = numline;
I need to store this outside of flash to be loaded:

A text file no worky because it contains a "&" symbol. So I was forced to look into XML (probably for the best anyway, because the organization is unmatched).. Here is what I did:
My .xml file:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<rotatorVariables>[code]....
Everything is great except textDis.nodeValue traces null everytime.. it does not in some other example files I was working with.. I also tried tracing just "textDis" but that returns the value of it WITH the tags and replaces all symbols with &alt; sytax..
i have created a flash animation for my homepage, i want to make part of that flash animation a "enter" button so when clicked would go to my page 2 on my website.
i have never done any script before and only used dreamweaver on a mac. is there an easy way to create this button to link to my next page and to stop my file to stop looping?
I am very new to ActionScript. I have a .fla file which contains the AS2 code for the frames. What I need to do is that I have to export this code as a separate file. There may be a separate file(or class file) for each frame code. Is it possible to me do it automatically without losing animation interactivity and functionality? Or is there any other way?
View 1 RepliesI have created some graphic symbols from text (convert to symbol>>graphic), and when I double click them (in the editor), they remain text. Others from several month ago seem to remain symbols when double-clicked. The other thing I have noticed is some of my buttons have bulls-eye type circles on top of them, while new ones I create have an empty black circle. All the new ones I created do not seem to work properly, and I am wondering why this is by working backwards.
View 12 RepliesI have created a basic symbol with dynamic text, so that I may have many of the same symbol and script the text that shows up on the symbol. When I have the text box in a horizontal orientation the text shows up in my animation but when I turn it into a vertical orientation my text does not show up. Unfortunately I need the symbols to have vertical text.

If formatting and links are allowed, how can I input the text to show as a link.

View 2 Replieshow i can display a symbol from the .swf on canvas.. i have exproted the .fla file from the flash CS3 as .swf file...
View 1 RepliesIn my project, there is a frame(png files) placed on the top of all symbols. After that, I apply mouse click event to the symbols that place underneath the frame symbol, but when I run the the game, I cannot click to the below symbols but only the frame symbol, although the frame is transparent.
The problem is, although the png picture has some transparent area, the mouse click cannot pass through it. Is there solution? Is there anyway I can disable a symbol from being clicked and mouse click event can recognize the symbol placed under it?
I have a symbol being loaded in through my XML file and its not being displayed. I am using Verdana, I have characters embedded and Ive even tried adding � to the include these characters section and still no luck.
View 9 RepliesI'm using a php page to fill in flash dynamic text boxes. The php variables are set up like so&myvariable=This is my textBut I need to use the & symbol in some of the contents of the variable such as:&myvariable=This is my text & your textOf course that second & symbol makes flash think it's beginning a new variable and screws everything up.
View 1 RepliesHow do I replace a graphic symbol ? It is actually made up of 3 layers including a textbox and bullet. When I double click on the symbol, I get the Text Properties menu.
When I single click on the symbol on the stage, the properties menu shows a Swap button. When I choose the correct symbol and click OK, it looks like it worked but it still shows the original symbol name (Instance of it) on this Properties menu.
Another issue is that when I change one of the symbols (by double clicking on the symbol and then double clicking on the text layer), it does change the text on that layer. However, then it changes the text on the other symbol as well even though they are different symbols.
Note that I can edit the original symbol and the new one. Both symbols are different. In other words, they each show the different text (which is what I want). It's like the original symbol is attached/embedded and cannot be changed.
Background on this issue: Rather than create a brand-new layer, I copied all the frames in a layer to a new layer because it has a motion tween on it. I only need to change the symbol that is in the motion tween. This is the only action/event happening on both layers.
