ActionScript 3.0 :: Scripting Troubles Linking Menu Items

Jun 24, 2009

I have so far managed to create a drop down menu by following some tutorials but have ran into some problems that have left me scratching my head.

Two main buttons have drop downs & I have managed to link to URLs with the drop down menu buttons. My problem is I can't figure out how to link to URLs with the main menu options (these are movies as opposed to buttons).

I also can't figure out how to open the linked URL in the same page instead of a new one.

I have uploaded my menu file in a zip.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Linking Menu - Using Items With Text Inside

Mar 29, 2005

I'm trying to create a little linking menu, for that I want to use items and then have some text within those items. When the user then clicks on the item, it's supposed to link. It all has to be loaded externally from an xml file. Now, I can get it to work half the way, the items come up, but it doesn't load the text, and it doesn't link either.

My AS:
[AS]var item_spacing = 50;
var item_count = 0;
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild.firstChild.childNodes;

ActionScript 2.0 :: 'delete This.onEnterFrame' Troubles?

ActionScript 2.0 :: XML Menu Linking ?

Jun 29, 2005

I suppose there has been such a topic already, but I cannot find it. I have been doing some XML menu (I have covered all the XML tutorials here on kirupa.com) and the code is doing just fine. I am using this one:

Code:
item_spacing = 100;
item_count = 0;[code]...

The menu builds without any problems. But, now comes the problematic part... I want to give those buttons in the menu the function to load .swf-s into the "loader_mc" which is on the main timeline. "loader_mc" is basically the place where I want my "movie1.swf" etc. to load into.I have been trying to figure it out by myself for two days now and I gave up. What can I do (what code to write) so that every button gets to load a different .swf into the "loader_mc"?

How To Make Menu Items Clickable

Jun 15, 2009

I'm creating an xml generated gallery/menu, I have the gallery and menu populating fine but my issue arises when I try to make the menu items clickable.

This is inside my populate menu function
_root["mainMenu"+[i]].onRelease = function() {
trace(this);
var splitThis:String = this
var splitThisArray:Array = splitThis.split("Menu");
trace(splitThis)
trace(splitThisArray[1])
};

Now the trace output I get is
_level0.mainMenu1
_level0.mainMenu1
undefined

Although when I set splitThis to "_level0.mainMenu1" manually I get "1" or whatever number comes after "Menu".
