View 9 RepliesI am fairly new to flash and I have started to attempt to modify a template that I found online to make it my own. The thing that I am having problems with is the URL Links. There are 5 different clickable tabs on the header that I have, and when you edit it in flash cs4, each one is the same image when you edit it. The only way in which you can change what each one of them says is by editing them in the library. This isn't the problem. I want to link these tabs to different pages on my website. When I edit one of them, all of them change to the same url link. The file is too large for me to upload I think.
View 4 RepliesI have laid out the four pages that I wish and have created a button for each page on each page.I was told a simple stop script would stop the pages acting like a movie.I entered:
14:00PM
stop();
function button1_clicked(e:MouseEvent) :void{ gotoAndStop("home");}
function button2_clicked(e:MouseEvent) :void{ gotoAndStop("about");
[code]....
which I was told would accomplish this and link the buttons to the relevant pages. When I test the movie the buttons start flickering as well as the images.....

View 2 RepliesI'm creating website that I want to put my resume and portfolio on as different Flash applications. For my resume it would be like a mini-web site that has various linking buttons to different pages. I tried to use scenes b/c I had a professor who told us to use scenes to create our pages/animations, and the scenes concept did not work with the actionscripting.
I then read online that scenes were not the way to go. So I'm trying to use Frame Labels to create this - right now I made a menu movie clip that I have my actionscript in for each button - the buttons have the correct instance names and I have my frames properly labeled with their movie clips attached to each for each part of the resume/page portion.
This is the code I'm using in the Menu movie clip. The problem I'm having is that when I click on each button - nothing happens! I tried this one, and nothing happened:
education.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, educationCLICK);
function educationCLICK(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndPlay('education');
};
And then I tried to re-order it and nothing happened:
function educationCLICK(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndPlay('education');
};
education.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, educationCLICK);
So this might be an easy but possibly a long answer, but I can't seem to find any good info on it anywhere. I'm trying to figure out how to have different sections of my flash site be linked to with different URLs. A good example of what I mean would be this site here: [URL] I'm not the biggest fan of the design but the functionality is great. It animates seamlessly between pages and each page has a separate URL. Is there an easy way to explain how this is accomplished?
View 2 RepliesI'm having trouble linking buttons from a swf banner that will be on all html pages. I'm using the following script, which doesn't work yet.For now, I have only two buttons. Button btn_1 should go to page_1.html, which is in a folder labeled pages.I've tried the variable name and the navigate to URL and neither have worked.
--- AS3
btn_0.mouseEnabled=false;// setting the first button -home - invisible
btn_0.alpha=0.2; // sets the color of the button 20% alpha

For some reason I can't seem to link a menu on a homepage with the internal pages of the website i'm working on. The thing is that this menu is only supposed to be seen as it is on the home page (it changes to a different location, and has a different look on the internal pages). Problem is I can't seem to get the button to link to the corresponding page.
View 3 RepliesI have created a flash website in cs4 using AS2. I have 2 layers in my time line, content and AS. I created scenes along the time line and labeled each scene "about" "contact" etc.Each scene is 10 frames long and has the stop action applied to it. The gotoAndPlay command is applied to each button within the scene and I have used the folowing action on the buttons to link the pages:on (release) {gotoAndPlay("scenename");}This does link the pages however if i hit any of the buttons twice, it directs me to the wrong page. For example if I hit the home button twice, it will direct me to the about page. Should I be targeting a frame within the scene also?

View 7 RepliesI would like to be able to go from an html page by pressing an enter link then go to a 'preLoader' page which would then automatically load the mainPage. Originally my preLoader was the 'index' page for the site and had a button that would start the loading process to the main site which was entirely a Flash site. But I decided to add an html page chock-a-block with searchable text so people looking for the services this site offered could actually find it and make that the 'index' page. Anyway, I would like the preLoader page to start loading the next page automatically with no user events like mouse or keyboard events needed.

View 1 RepliesI am trying to work something out, but I am not really good in scripting so I can't figure out how to write the code properly.The situation is a bit complex:I have one frame labeled "street". From "street" you can enter another page labeled "underground" when you press a button. In "underground" there's a button "exitU_btn" that brings you back to "street".So far this wasn't a problem. Now I have another page labeled "F2016" from which you can enter "underground",too, but this time when pressing "exitU_btn" I don't want it to return to "street" but return to "F2016".Means the button should know the label I am coming from and returning to this one.I started to write a bit code for that with if statements, but don't know how exaxtly to write it.
Code:
var enter2016: Boolean = false;
/*should decide where I am coming from, which label (I guess this is what has to be defined somehow)*/
stop();[code]........
I thought I need a boolean to check if my situation is right, but I don't know how to code it right.
Making buttons that open another url is easy enough, but for some reason I'm having a huge amount of trouble having a navigation button open new content on my website, such as moving from the Home content to the Menu content (the layout is static, only one small section filled with content changes.
I think the issue is that I can't figure out how to code it due to the fact that there are a good amount of nested movie clips, I'm not sure how to direct it to the place and frame I want.
I couldn't quite uplaod the file, so I've got it on filefront here: [URL]

View 4 RepliesI 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.
