ActionScript 3.0 :: Use Anchors In Flash CS4?
Aug 18, 2010
What in your opinion is the best way to for me to link to a specific frame or label between 2 different swf's
Situation: AS3
I have a splash page (i'll call it home.html) that uses code that only works in FP9 the navigation buttons are also in this swf. The main part of the website is in another swf that only works with FP10. So when I click on a button in home.swf i need to open main.html and have main.swf go to a certain frame or label.

Im working on a project where i have 5 buttons on one side and a blank window in the middle of the screen. when a button is clicked an external swf is loaded with movieclips of text based on each catergory. 2 of these movieclips of text are long and a request for an index at the top of the page has been made. everything in the movie is working so far except the page index. i wanted to create this similiar to the way an html index works with page anchors.
i have made all the letters and converted them to movieclips. ive added event listeners to those buttons so that the main window's y position is moved when they are clicked. the main swf window will jump down to the desired position but the scroll button remains at the top and theres no way to scoll back up to the top of the page.

I need to have 4 external links going into my my flash site, seperat frames. It kind of works when using anchors in my "main.swf", and not load the "main.swf" using the loader component, but then all by itself the "main.swf" starts to jump between the 4 different anchors. When I load the "main.swf" using the loader component, nothing happens, and I feel I need to have the loader component aswell. I have tried to put the anchors in seperat frames in the "main.swf" aswll as in the "loader.swf".
This is how my site is build:
index.htm (with the html anchor codes needed) with the loader component "myLoader" in the index.htm loading the "main.swf".

I have a swf embedded in an xhtml page for my navigation bar. My whole site is contained in one xhtml page, using anchors to zoom to different sections. For example, there is a contact section, an about section, and a travel section. All of these are linked via getURL on the swf file, and set up as anchors on the xhtml page.I have a java script that scrolls to anchors when a regular <a href="#anchor">anchor</a> is clicked, but it does not search the swf for getURL("#anchor"); so, when users click links in the swf, it does not scroll the xhtml page, it simply "jumps" there.Any solution on how to link my java with my swf??

Suppose one does:
var myLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
myLoader.load(new URLRequest(xmlPath));
myLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, processXML);
[code]...
here xmlPath is the path to an RSS feed. I parse the xml and what not but then i define a dynamic text box in processXML which uses the parsed data. for example:
bla.htmlText = "<p><a href="http://www.fandango.com/drive+angry+3d_131568/movieoverview?wssac=123&wssaffid=11840"><img src="http://images.fandango.com/r84.9.1/ImageRenderer/69/103/images/no_image_69x103.jpg/131568/images/masterrepository/tms/94283/94283_aa.jpg" alt="Drive Angry 3D" title="Drive Angry 3D" border="0" /></a> Opens Friday, Feb 25, 2011</p><p><a
[code]...
This is fine except that because the loader event fires after loading the xml file the text is showing up "before" the src images inside this html actually are loaded...

I'm using Flex 3.5 and I have a Text object with an anchor set in the htmlText property. The link only works on every other click. Is this a known problem in Flex?I've done a simple case and I've found out that I get this problem when the htmlText is inside a TabNavigator object. If it's outside it works as expected.

Here is the code
Code: Select allimport fl.transitions.Tween;

I'm working through Dreamweaver fairly well, and I'm now wanted to import Flash buttons I've created myself into Dreamweaver for a website I'm currently building, and it's here that I'm finding the problem. I have been to the 'get URL Function', but it says something about needing to link to a web page? But my problem is how can I link Flash Buttons to a web page, when my site is still being developed and not published? Do I have to publish first?

Are there any programs or features in flash that can simplify flash vector art?
I just realized that one of the reasons why my program might be running so slow is that I made the images out of lots and lots of circles. When things didn't look right I often just put larger circles over smaller ones. I didn't think that flash might still be drawing the invisible circles underneath-

We've got a green screened video playing in a flash movie over top of our html content.when the movie ends, flash uses external interface .api to call a javascript function which swaps the flash movie out with a 5 x 5 pixel flash movie (rewrites the <div>).this works and you can interact with the html content after the flash movie in all browsers except firefox.anyone know of any work-arounds or is there a better way of handling flash over html in this fashion?

We are developing our app in flash/flex builder for the front end hitting .NET backend webservices. There is one section of the old app that will not be initially converted, so we need have it appear in an iFrame.
So far all that works fine.We shrink the size of the SWF in the host page to just be the menu/nav area. And underneat that I have an iframe control that loads in this page from the old site.Now the problem. in the SWF is a drop down list to enable picking a client. Since the SWF has been shrunk to about 100px high, the drop-down will only occupy within that 100px area which it's opened. This is NOT good as you can imagine. How can I make the drop-down list descend over-top of the IFRAME control and thus extend outside the SWF dimensions? Is this possible?
I tried to make the internal stage transparent and leave the SWF a little larger, about 400 px high, but the IFRAME still appears behind the SWF.

Is the Flash Video (or Flex VideoDisplay) component capable of seeking to an exact moment in a video?It seems to always 'snap' to keyframes (which is understandable). I'm just wondering if there are any mechanisms in the video classes for seeking to exact frames, ie it should do the translation from keyframe to specific frame in the background rather than having to actually play the video forward to the desired frame.This is not a streaming file and has nothing to do with buffering. The player is just downloading a movie file from the web and playing it from memory.

Problem: Icons suddenly disappear after the flash is being loaded. See this screenshot: http:[url]...What I've tried: Setting z-index, recoding the JQuery behind it, nothing works.

Good day to everyone. I'm here today to seek help about Flash CS4 and ActionScript 3.0. The story starts when one day, my boss asked me to make a flash presentation about their upcoming user training for a newly developed software. I was enthusiastic and excited about it because it's been a long time that I did not use Flash (note that I don't have any experience in ActionScript 3.0). At first, everything was a bit rough as I need to recall how to properly use the frames to create a successful animation. As I was about to finish the project, my boss approached me again and asked if I could insert a menu page in front so that the users won't have to replay the whole thing again just to look for a little something on that part of the movie. So yea, at first I was abit hesitant to accept. I said that it will work with Powerpoint. But she's a total pusher and I was forced to say yes. Now I'm having this problem about how to make a flash button load a swf movie.I've tried searching all over the net for tutorials but most of the times the "getUrl" and other stuff are said to be outdated.

I need to catch a hover event on top of a flash object, so I set the wmode and created an invisible div on top of it to attach the event listeners to. Thing is, I can't click the flash object. The cover is swallowing the clicks, and the things I've tried to go around this have made a mess of the hover events. This is the 30th problem I ran into in 2 days time and it's driving me crazy xD.

My website will have a logo on the header that will play as a flash movie (animated flash movie .swf). I am looking for code / algorithm that will display an image with the same dimensions as the flash movie if Flash is not installed or enabled for the current user accessing the site. How do I do this?

I have a flash file that loads in a external swf. That swf contains a form that I want to control the tab order on. The external swf has form fields in it, and I have their tab indexes set. When I hit tab, flash ignores the flash index, and focuses on some of the navigation elements of the parent .swf. What am I doing wrong?
