A movie clip called "Symbol_4" contains all of the navigation and frames of my movie.inside of Symbol_4 is a MC called "bottom scroller" which contains "imgbar" which contains "bar" which has a bunch of buttons in it.I want those buttons to link to different frames in the main "Symbol_4" MC.
I've tried putting code on a button like this
Quote:
on (release) { tellTarget (this._parent._parent._parent) { }
[code]....
There are no errors in any of this code, but nothing seems to work?!
On the inner section i have labels.The problem i have is that when the movieclip loads the home movieclip doesn't unload therefore the new movieclip just appears on top whereas i want the home movieclip to unload leaving the background etc and the new movieclip load. I think the problem is that im loading a movieclip within a movieclip and the home moveclip label is on another section.
Therefore im asking can you unload a movieclip or is there another way around this without making the new movieclips background a full colour and working on top of that?

I am currently building a website in flash for a school project and it has to be on a timeline. I was wondering if you could help me i have buttons at the top of the page how would i link these to another frame so it can be used as a new page
I need to get the code to make a button link to a pdf located in the same folder on my host server as my flash movie and index.html file. (or should it be located differently?) I want the pdf to load in a new window..
After defining my button as a button and then going into the F9actionscripts menu, I don't know what code to input to make the button link to a specific file. I'm doing this as an autorun swf for a CD I am making.
Does anyone know if it's possible to link a MovieClip on the stage to a class? I have a MovieClip on the stage called: square_mc and I have this Move class (see attached code). Of course when I set the class linkage of square_mc to the Move class, square_mc moves down the screen, Move is working. But how would I attach the Move class to square_mc at runtime, when it's on the stage?
I have been trying to figure this out for 3 days now. Here is the structure on the timeline: movie clip (portbtn) inside port btn (button) I need (button) inside (portbtn) to link to a keyframe inside of another movie clip on the main timeline called portPage.
Here is the code I have been trying to get to work and it seems like it would: Select allusa.onPress = function() { _root.portPage.gotoAndStop(1); gotoAndStop ("closed") };
Now this is what everyone else tries and it doesn't seem to work. Also I want to note that I have tried to trace the movie clip "portPage" and it says undefined which from what I have read means that the button is working but it is just not getting the right directory. I have no clue what other directory to put in there since this one seems to be the right one.
im trying to make this menu, just having one small problem linking the image or movieclip in the libary to the blank movie clip called instant name icon_img i have a movie clip called mp3_icon with an linkage ID of mp3_icon
Code: b1.onRollOver = over;
b1.onRollOut = out;
b1.buttText.buttonText.text = "Main Conference Day One - Neil Watson";
i have buttons inside of my movieclip that link to the different scenes. on the buttons i have the code
on (release) { _root.gotoAndPlay("bio"); }
"bio" is the frame name of the first frame in the second scene. it works correctly when i click on it the first time. but if i click on that button again in the second scene, it goes to the third scene. and if i click on it again, it goes again to the second scene. also, when i click the button the second time and it goes to what would be a scene ahead of where it is supposed to be, when i click on the button that should bring it to the scene it is currently on, it goes to the next scene when it is supposed to be on the same scene.

I am using the flash which has welcome animation. inside the flash i have external links to html files. But when i want come back to home page(which is flash) from html page, I need my flash to start from home page not from introduction animation.So how can I link to the particular layer/clip without repeating introduction animation?
After I upload the files, I can see the hand icon when I mouse over them, but when I click on that spot nothing happens. I have two text links on the same page that do work. One is an email link and the other is a url link. I have check the button names to my code and they do match.
Here's my new question: What code I have to input in a button file in Flash, for that when I click it opens a site I've made, in a browser? I'm doing my website in Flash, and the other website I want to put the link was made in Dreamweaver. It's not hosted, it's in my pen, that's why I'm having problems with the code.
I have created mc's (movie clips) for each one of my pages and for pages within those pages, if you can understand that lol. The problem I am having is, linking from one mc to another.
Example: I am in my home page movie clip, and I have a "read more" button on one of the articles, when a user clicks on this button I want him to be redirected to the page that article is on.
In my case, I am making a website that gives users information on Paris, France. On my home page I have an article that speaks about Napoleonic and I have created a "read more" button. The information on Napoleonic is on the landmarks page(which is its own movie clip). When the user clicks on the "read more" button I want him to be redirected to the page thats in its own movie clip with the info.
I have created seven buttons using Flash version 9 following a tutorial on this site [URL]. The buttons function the way they were designed, however, when I attempt to link them with a URL or a unpublished website file (eg. contact.html or index.html) the button brings up the "TextEdit" application on my Mac.
The action script 3 code that I am using: btn_6.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onMouseClick); function onMouseClick(event:MouseEvent):void { navigateToURL(new URLRequest("contact.html"), "_same");}
I have even tried using action script 2 code after changing the publish settings to AS2: btn_6.onRelease=function(){ getURL("[URL]", _same);} The results are the same. When I test the buttons, they link to an application on my Mac. All of my buttons are on the same layer.
I m building a website and lately i am facing a lil problem.i have placed a button from windows->components-> button with movie type button property now the issue is i am unable to link that to a pdf file.i want that button to open a pdf file.and how do i do that.
I am creating a website in flash and I need help linking to internal pages. I have created mc's (movie clips) for each one of my pages and for pages within those pages, if you can understand that lol. The problem I am having is, linking from one mc to another.

I am trying to link 5 buttons I have made in flash CS5 AS3 to 5 pages and I have made this code, but I keep getting error message 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addEventListener through a reference with static type Class. My code is
stop(); function button1_clicked(e:MouseEvent):void{ gotoAndStop("page1"); }
I've converted a graphic that i imported into a button. And put this action script on it to go to a certain scene.
on (press) { gotoAndPlay("2,1"); }
This button should make the movie go to scene 2, frame 1, but its just not workinBackground info:The first scene is jsut a short intro where a couple buttons finally come up in a keyframe. In the keyframe itself, I have a stop action so the main scene doesnt loop. And on each button I have the action that i wrote above, to go to certain scenes depending on which button i click. Am i totally setting this up wrong structurally? Do i need to put any kind of "Reset" action if i want to go back to a previous scene. Also, in each scene, I have a mouse hide and replace action, could this have anything to do with it?
I have a Scrollpane with a movie clip inside of it and am trying to link to a frame in a parent movie clip and keep getting an error. I am linking it the same way I do any other links. I was using this code. stop(); import flash.events.MouseEvent; //-------------Home Button home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, homeClick); function homeClick(event:MouseEvent):void{ MovieClip(parent).gotoAndStop("home"); } Is there something special I have to do because its linking to a frame FROM a scrollpane? Never done this one before.
I have a drop down movie button that shows the drop down when scrolled over but i cannot get the drop down buttons to link to the relevant frames.My current script on the dropped down button is
I'm very new to Flash (using CS3). I created a button instance out of text but I don't know what to do next. I'd like for the button to link to a different place in the timeline of my website. Right now, when I click on the text link and go to actions, it says "current selection cannot have actions applied to it". I'malso not sure what the script should read and if all the script goes into one "actions" layer or separately. This is what I'd like for it to look like: [URL]
The button that I'm trying to create right now is the "print" button which would bring up the section with the clickable thumbnails that you see on top. It's my first time using flash. I already placed everything in the document. Should all the different links just be different places in the timeline? Sorry if this is a n00b question but I'm still trying to understand how flash works as a website (my previous experience is only web banners).
So the following code allows us to open an HTML link with the click of a button
function callLink(event:MouseEvent):void { var myURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.adobe.com/");[code].......
The problem is that this always opens the link in a new window. So what if I want it to open in the same window? Changing the line to:
var myURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http:url...); results in a compiler error.I am embedding this swf on a web page of my own, so there are no security concerns regarding giving flash access.
