View 4 Replies[URL].. How to bind onclick event to flash via swfobject?
For example i need to add onclick url, because there isn't built in url on click.
One of the movieclips I have on the stage, Im using senocular's transformTool, to activate the transform controls (when that MC is clicked). But now I wanna have a different action if there is a SECOND click, but the MC isn't detecting any clicks anymore because the transformTool comes on top of the MC. Does it make sense or am I on crack?
View 7 RepliesI have an flv movie file that I need to convert to swf and add an onclick event to it. I was able to do the first step by importing the flv movie and export it as swf. How can I add the onclick event? This swf will be an advertisement for a product and onclick I need it to redirect to a specific URL.
View 1 RepliesI have a Flash AS2 application that is made up of many SWF files. I need to create an OnClick event in a container SWF that will work for every SWF called. I am trying to avoid adding code to every SWF (over 100).
Currently I can get access to the click in the container for the first SWF but when the second SWF is called it seems to overwrite the container.
this._lockroot = true;
this.onMouseUp = function(){
//if not on login
[Code]....
How do I make where a click in the container will be triggered even if the SWF inside the container calls another SWF?
I currently have a onClick event that resets my videos, but this 'reloads' them, is there a way to pause them or stop them without resetting them? <a href="#" onClick='resetVideo("vid1");resetVideo("vid3");return false;'> I currently have this event firing on a navigation button, but it fires every time its clicked (obviously), I really only want to stop a video if its playing - is that possible?

I have an image map with coordinates and event onclicks. I am not concerned about the image map coordinates as much as i am with the onclick event which is what triggers the parent application ( which seems to only recognize the event formatted in this way:
<area shape="circle" coords="169,380,16" href="#" alt="221" onclick="top.changeView('[Shared] CENTER', '221');" />
Is there any way to do this?At least for the onclick part? I'd like to add the imagemap onclick to a button.
3 buttons are called to the stage, and each button has an eventlistener that listens for a Click event. A switch statement is used to trace the clicks, but the only message i get is from the "default message"?[code]...
View 3 RepliesI would like to populate a combobox from XML file in Flash. Then, when a list item of combobox is pressed then thumbnail image of that particular category is being loaded in a movieclip from XML file.
I spent a hard time to achieve this, but there is no success.

I have a total of 5 separate buttons in my flash document. I want to have a user to be able to click the button and have it display some sort of text near the button itself. How do I get the text to stay once a button is clicked and disappear when another button is clicked? I dont want to use the hit method because the text will contain hyperlinks that I want the user to be able to click on.

I have an InputText field for users to submit information to me. I want to have the text field display some default text (Ex. Type E-Mail Here) and then when the field is clicked, the text will be cleared. After a long time of searching a found a solution that works perfectly....using ActionScript 2.0. Unfortunately my site is in 3.0 therefore I cannot use this code. For the example I want my default text to be "Type E-Mail Here", and the InputText Instance Name will be "inputTxt"
Here is the 2.0 ActionScript Code:
inputTxt.textField = "Type E-Mail Here..."
inputTxt.onSetFocus = function() {
inputTxt.textField = "" };
inputTxt.onKillFocus = function() {
inputTxt.textField = "Type E-Mail Here..."
};
When using this code in AS3, I get the error code "1120: Access of undefined property inputTxt". What do I need to make this code work in AS3?

How do I remove the event handler onPress?
joystick. In the class of the game object I add it like this(parent as MovieClip).addEventListener("fire", onFireButton);After several rounds of playing it looks like I get someperformance issues. When looking in the debugger all listeners are stillthere even if the clips of the game object isn't on stage.When/where would I remove these events in my class? To I haveto trigger another event when the game is over or is it possible toexecute some code in my class automaticly ... some destructor or anythinglike this
View 3 RepliesMy parent class adds bonus_mc It then adds an event listener to bonus_mc to listen for a custom event When the custom event is dispatched I want the parent_mc to remove event.target.

How do you know when you should remove event listeners? For example, I know that if I have a TimerEvent listener, I can safely remove that event when I have stopped and / or deleted my timer. Or, if I have a display object on the stage, and I remove it, I can safely remove any event listeners associated with the display object.
View 1 RepliesI've placed listeners on the var "topic_mc" (below), but I'm not sure how to remove them properly:
Code:
private function layoutTopics(modNum:Number, attachTo:MovieClip):void {
topicLength = MainMenu.modArr[modNum].topicArr.length;
if (Interface._ui != null) {
[code]...
doesn't really work - the listeners keep running. How do I call the objects properly to remove the listeners?
If I add an event listener, and I re-add it later, does that automatically refresh/renew the listener or do I need to remove it before adding a new one every time?ex:
Code:
function swipeStart(event:MouseEvent):void
{
[code]........
i have an "if" statement that creates an eventlistener... i then have an if statement to remove it... but everytime i have the "removeEventListener" thingy i get an error

doesn't really work - any trace statement I place within the event function will run for infinity. How do I call the objects properly to remove the listeners? Note: I've tried referring to currentTarget instead of target but that doesn't make any difference.
is it necessarily to add and remove event listeners like so:
Code:
addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,mDown);
function mDown(e:MouseEvent){
removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,mDown);
[code]....
assuming rapid input, is it really better to do this rather than just let the mouseDown and MouseUp Listeners run all the time? It seems like it would be strenuous to constantly add and remove listeners like this. But this is how i generally see it done..
I'm trying to remove an event listener but I can't make it work correctly. Here's the code:
[Code]...
I want to add a MOUSE_OUT listener in the first function, then remove it during the second function. I think I coded it properly, but I can't be sure. I tried to test the code by changing the remove event listener (below) to remove the original listener but it didn't work. Typically, I'd just trace the object to see if it's still there, but I don't know how to trace a listener. helpLoader.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OU T, onHelpOver);
I have a btn on the main stage and when moused over, it will play an mc (window_mc) which opens up a toggle window. The window_mc includes 3 layers; 1 the animation of the toggle window, 2 the AS of the window and 3 the content inside the toggle window.
The content (layer 3) is another mc (countdown_mc). Within that mc I have an animation and the next frame holds an flv, which plays after the animation.
My question is in relation to the main btn on the main stage that pulls the toggle window open (window_mc) when moused over. I have it set to where it only opens and closes when the mouse is rolled onto the button or off it. The window will open and close accordingly.
When the content in the window gets to the flv within the countdown_mc, I do not want the rollover action to work anymore. (I have an exit btn on the window that will close everything out if clicked).
I know I probably need a removeEventListener action, but I am not sure how to write it if the addEventListener is linked to my btn on the mainstage and I want it removed within the countdown_mc which is inside the window_mc.[code]...
circDraw.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,function(e:Event){expand(e .target); },false,0,true);

How would I add a line here to remove that event?
