I've got a couple of questions regarding the same project.
1- When you view URL... in IE, you'll notice that it sometimes doesn't go past the preloader. I asked why this happened in an IRC channel, and was told to use swfobject. However, with swfobject, I have the same problem. Is something else the problem?
2- I have the code [code]
I am using a quiz template and have placed video in the first frame. Now the quiz doesn't go past the welcome page when I test movie... I'm sure what I am missing is simple!

I have used wsdl2js to generate the javascript needed to communicate with the service.However I end up getting a http 500 error and have not been able to get past that. I have looked through the provided examples from the Apache CXF download and I have done some searching and cannot find a solid example of creating the javascript client. A lot of examples seem to somehow access the wsdl file at runtime from a server but my javascript is already generated from the CXF tool and I just include the scripts.
Adobe Flex and AS3Another option I have considered is using Adobe Flex. I create a new Mobile Flex project in Flash Builder using the BlackBerry PlayBook SDK and Flex 4.5. However when I use the menu options to connect to a web service I get prompted with "This option is only available for flex projects."Are there any other options out there that provide a solution to this problem? If you need more information just let me know
i have a movie clip symbol (its just a red square 1x1).
at frame 1 it is just in the centre at 1px x 1 px.
i go to frame 60 ( the end of the movie clip ) and i want 2 resize it quite a bit.

p.s. if i remove the tween then i can resize it to my hearts content.
I've got a number of days from the date to today. Like 1689 days. How can I get from this the date subtraction past days with date?
View 1 RepliesI am having a little trouble understanding why my code is not functioning. It works if I subtract and combine numbers above .1 but if I use a number below .1 the _x and _y values stop at 0. I would like the _x and _y values to go into the negative. I am using Flash MX.
function movePastCorner(mc){

mc._y = 2;

I have a scroller mc that I want to control by clicking underneath its y position to advance it down its y axis by a predetermined amount.The below code works to move it, but it advances past its max value of 496.5 (off the screen).Have I made a mistake in the code below? The scroller mc and associated text block is in their own mc on the root timeline. This code is on a frame on the root timeline.Has it got to do with the relative y positions of the stage compared with the y positions in the actual MC that I am trying to control?
Code:
principals_mc.johnTxt_mc.scrollerZone_mc.onRelease = function () {
var scrollerAmount:Number = 80;
if (this.hitTest(principals_mc.johnTxt_mc.jfscroller_mc)) {[code]......
in the first frame, first scene. Shouldn't that be where I but the include? (the buttons do work in scene) The buttons that are defined in external.as work in the first scene, but not in the other scenes. When I do an "include" in every scene, I get errors, no buttons work (makes sense....that should throw errors).

gotoAndPlay() is the only actionscript I have in my flash and all I want it to do is go to a frame. If I tell it to go to a frame past a certain one it will not. It always (unless I pick a frame previous to the messed up one) goes to that frame. I have only one scene.
View 10 Repliesmy stage is set at 500x400 in flash cs4. I created a rectangle for the background and set the same size as my stage that covers the whole stage but I noticed when I hit ctrl+enter to test the movie clip, it initially looks fine but when I expand the window large, you can see white area all around.

I've created a multi-framed flash file that's calling multiple variables from an external php (text) file. I'm using an onload command to do this and for some reason the variables seem to "disappear" once I leave the first frame (where the onload and load commands are)I'm figuring that my problem has to do with 'variables scope'. I've read the article on this site but I don't know actionscript well enough to proceed.I ultimately want to do away with using multiple frames by using multidemsional arrays and for...next loops, but this is what I have to work with (for now). I'm going crazy trying to get THIS to work.

I'm currently working on a project where I have a mouse trailer in my flash header. It drives me crazy when the effect cuts off when your mouse goes out side of the flash area.
Does anyone know any tricks that I can use so that the effect doesn't cut off? I need to keep it in ActionScript 2.
Assuming, for a rectangle that is controlled by the user using the arrow keys, that I do the following[code]...
Assuming that works in detecting the collision, what would I use to actually stop the rectangle from progressing through the wall?

I have a MC that can be dragged. when it goes past a certain point it is scaled down in size and it locks in to a specified x and y position. The problem is this is causing the onPress function and onRelease function to not work properly. once the mc goes in i cant get it out. this is on the first frame of the timeline
Code:
flatline.onPress = function() {
if (_currentframe == 1) {

I am trying to create a menu in Flash to access different Flash interactives I have created.When a button is clicked it brings up a different Flash project, but I am having problems with it now bring up it's own assets because they are all referenced as if we were in the sub-folder of the current swf.
View 2 RepliesI want to add a preloader into an existing flash website file. The flash file is made of 5 layers, with one movie clip on each layer for each page of the website pages. I want to be able to put a preloader on the home page to let me viewers know that the site is not fully loaded before they start viewing the other pages (it's a portfolio site, so there are a lot of images). Can I add a preloader movie clip to appear on the home page that will loop until the entire site (all 5 frames/pages) are loaded?
I do not want to add another frame in front of the existing frames because I would have to edit 200+ portfolio frames and script.
I want to use a preloader that was created in Actionscript 2.0 (because I couldn't figure out how to do it in 3.0) - but the splash page and website are in 3.0. Is there a way to segue from the preloader to the splash page? The preloader uses Actionscript to call Scene 2, but I would like it to call an external .swf file if possible. Can anyone tell me how I could do this? -- Or a better way, that does not involve redoing the loader
View 2 RepliesI just wondered if it is possible to have a preloader for each MC within a movie? I have one simple preloader for the movie:

Now my movie is 60 frames long, the above will only preload the first 30 frames right? So If I have a button that goes to frame 35 on the main timeline and on frame 35 is MC1, can I have a preloder within this MC1 which is 55 frames long? I am just trying to get away from loading seperate swf's into levels!
[Code]...
I'm trying to set up a preloader for my movie, and I'm having some trouble with paths etc. My main timeline has two movieclips, one for the preloaded content, and one for the preloader. The instance name of my content mc is ycmovie, so I've used the code below to try to access the loading details. My preloader mc contains the following:
Code:
total_bytes = _root.getBytesTotal();
loaded_bytes = _root.getBytesLoaded();[code].....
I assumed the field name was the instance name? But obviously I'm using incorrect syntax in the path.
I just wondered if it is possible to have a preloader for each MC within a movie? I have one simple preloader for the movie:
[AS]
total_bytes = _root.getBytesTotal();
loaded_bytes = _root.getBytesLoaded();
percent_done = int((loaded_bytes/total_bytes)*100);
ifFrameLoaded ("Scene 1", 30) {
play ();
}

I tried the above and it just showed 100%.
Is there Actionscript 2 that can be put in a preloader and play only the first movie clip on the root timeline instead of all of the root's timeline (which happens using getBytesLoaded or movieclip._framesLoaded() )? I want the preloader to just load the first movie clip and let the user
read this screen while the rest of the root timeline continues to download.
how to link the main movie to the preloader, so it counts the load and loads the main movie when it's done?
View 1 RepliesI am trying to use a preloader for a larger .swf file that loads inside of a movie clip. I was wondering what code might work and where to put it. (preloader is a .swf). I am using CS4, ActionScript 1.0.
