View 3 RepliesIm trying to create a simple splash page that plays a video using the FLVplayback component. The problem is that it wont redirect the browser tot he homepage at the end of the playback.I've set up my FLA by putting an instance of the FLVplayback component in the only frame on the stage. I put another keyfram on a separate layer for actions and included the following actions (instance name of the FLVplayback component is videoIntro)
stop();
import mx.video.*;
videoIntro.contentPath = "masti.flv";[code].....
i seem to be able to reference the component correctly because i can set the contentPath. What im doing in that actionscript is identical to what i have seen in some tutorials.
I needed to make a loop for a intro splash, and since I have only programmed in php before, I tried this (to my suprise it didn't give a syntax error):
Code:
count=0;
if (count < 5) {
gotoAndPlay(40);
[Code].....
I currently have a splash page which uses a variety of tweens to make an animation of a character running. The splash page also has music playing in the background and a small skip button (located in the corner) which is given the instance name "reelButton". I want the splash page to link to a loading page (file name "loading_screen.swf") I have created which uses a black background and an animation of a skull rotating. When I press the skip button, it does navigate to the loading page but the character running from the splash page and the music is still playing. I know its because I need to use the unloadAndStop command to stop all the movie clips from the splash page. But even with this it still doesn't seem to work.
Below is the code:
var contentLoader:Loader = new Loader();addChild(contentLoader);
reelButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, reel);
function reel(event:MouseEvent):void {
loadURL("loading_screen.swf");
}function loadURL(url:String):void {
contentLoader.unloadAndStop();
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
contentLoader.load(request);}
I just want to stop all the sounds in the splash page. I don't need to give the user the option to start them again. The thing is only 20 seconds long. I just want them to be able to turn off all sounds for their convenience. I found this piece of code:
ActionScript Code:
import flash.media.SoundMixer;
SoundMixer.stopAll();
But how do I write the function/method?
I think I have to add getURL() on the last frame of the timeline, but it's not working for me.I have:[URL]
View 2 RepliesClient wants the audio from splash page to fade out in bg when user clicks enter button and leaves page and enters next html page? How to do this? WIth AS? Javascript? Does this file need to be embeded on both html pages?
View 5 RepliesCheck out the link below, as you can see my overlay is hidden behind the flash element. However, the blue bar with the 'Continue' button appears above everything. Does anyone know what CSS changes I need to make so the overlay will appear above everything below it? The background loads an iframe.

I can't add wmode="transparent" to the embed tag, since I have no control over the page loaded in the iframe.
Iam loading 2 mp3s via XML. Play, stop, forward and Volume btns works fine. Wat i want is to loop an mp3 till a user stops it or changes it to the second one.
View 1 RepliesIve just finished a flash web site that ive used a lot of XML for loading my images from thumbnails. Its works great.
Except it takes maybe 3-4 minutes to load. I think whats happening is its loading all the images in that XML file before it even shows the first thumbnail, so thats like 2MB its loading.
Is there a way to preload all of the xml files at the start on my Flash splash page?
Here is the link to what im explaining.

My website splash page is around 780x480 and the rest of the flash site is all 800x500. I'm not quite sure how to work this, but I want to have the splash page play automatically then go to the main page of the website. Can someone help me out with this? And does it matter that they are different sizes?
View 1 RepliesI have two animations on the timeline- one from say frame a to b and second from frame c to d. I would like the first animation to loop indefinitely till mouse moves over it, which triggers the second animation to start and loop until mouse it moved away.
View 3 RepliesI don't get exactly how they do the whole preloader animation on: http://www.flashlevel.com/indexv4.html
every time i visit the page the whole preloader animation runs for 0 till 100. also if it is in your cache.
they use 20 stripes to load so (5 percent means 1 stripe!) but how can you animate your preloader if youre preloader does'nt always runs smoothly from 1 till 100?
My "train of albums" loads but won't play until I reload the page. I want to keep the bitmaps in memory if the user comes back to the page. bitmaps are 100k jpg's.
The Action Script 3 asks "if the albums are already in memory" start the "animation" if not, start loading.
Code:
if (theAlbumArray.length < albumArray.length){
LoadAnAlbum(); // starts loading art
stage.addEventListener (Event.ENTER_FRAME, fillBuffer);

I'm converting some old Director/Shockwave animations to Flash, and I'm setting up a navigation system. I have a simple animation that runs from from 1 to frame 110, and I'd like it to loop until the user clicks a button. The timeline goes on beyond frame 110 with other stuff. In an "actions" layer in frame 110, I have the following
gotoAndPlay(1);
I thought that this would lead to the looping, but it doesn't. The movie just moves on beyond frame 110. Just as a test, I put the following at frame 110 instead.
stop();
and when I test the movie, it doesn't stop. The commands don't seem to be seen.
I'm using some modified code from a chapter exercise (from a text book) to play four separate MP3s external to the FLA. Here's an example of what happens when a button is clicked:
[Code]....
The problem is, there's something of a noticeable stutter when the MP3 reaches the end, just before it starts up again. The first MP3 (contrary to the others), is a seamless ambient sound which ought to sound perfect in the FLA, but doesn't, again, because of the slight stutter in starting it up again. Is there a better way to do this? I thought, perhaps, this would be fixed if I removed the "stop();" line and instead had it play the next frame, which would invariably send it back to the previous one, but this changed nothing.
Is there a better method to use? Even with the other three MP3s, which aren't seamless, I want to loop, unless and until the user clicks the 'Mute' button. My last thread (about setInterval)received no replies, but I'm hoping this will, especially as this final project is due this Wednesday and I'd rather it not have this slight hiccup in it.
My client wants a click tracker. They want the kiosk flash projector to track the cumulative clicks a page receives. They are referencing the use of a third party software using actionscript sharedobject to identify the clicks.

What I need to happen is if the user has ever clicked the mouse during the animation, don't run the code on the individual pages. How I have it now, it still executes when it gets to page 1,2, or 10.
I'm building a project that has a character navigate through a room by clicking on the floor. Right now, the walls, character, and floor are all children of the same display object for sorting purposes. My question: is there a way to disable mouse clicks to the walls and character while allowing clicks to the floor? Using mouseChildren appears to be an all or nothing deal and I can't seem to isolate individual floor/wall/character objects for use with mouseEnabled.

View 3 RepliesI have 25 buttons on a page. Each page loads an external swf. How do i write for each loop that will have the same result, but instead of 25 different pages, it loads the same page with different text. I know the text can be displayed with xml. The xml is not my concern. The for loop is.

i'm trying to build a flash site and ran into a problem... i have a gallery page with a bunch of page numbers at the top. when you click on one, a movieclip loads of some images coming in.so the problem i'm having is that i made a little animation for when you roll the mouse over the page number (they scale up when the mouse is over, scale back when the cursor moves away)... what it's doing is when you roll over, it goes to a certain frame in the timeline and plays that animation.that's all working cool, but i need it to not do that once it's clicked on. so basically when you actually click on a page number, the over script should stop until you go to another page... here's the code i've written,
function over(event:MouseEvent):void {
this.gotoAndPlay(30);}
function out(event:MouseEvent):void {[code].....
