View 1 RepliesI'm making a presentation in flash. I want users to be able to click on a button and download a jpeg file.
View 1 RepliesTried to use geturl and that does not solve, for I want the button click to cause the browser to actually download the file, not play it. With geturl, some browsers will play the mp3 and the user is left wondering still how to download it to their own computer.
This is code I was trying to use to cause button link to cause file to be downloaded. I have 6 files, was going to make this for each button. But it doesn't work.
ActionScript Code:
demo_audio.mtdemo.onPress=function()
{
var request:URLRequest=new URLRequest("fielnamehere.mp3");

View 2 Repliesi can only find info on this using AS3.i, however, am still using AS2.i need to create a button that a user can click to download an MP3.the only thing i could think to do was use a getURL, but when i do that, it opens the MP3 file and starts playing it in the browser. i need it to open a "Save As" dialogue, instead. I'm totally stuck on this one.the MP3 for download is located in a folder called "music" (music/A.mp3)

View 1 RepliesI have a few buttons rigged up for downloading word.doc, mp3 etc
Problem is its opening the file rather than giving a download this file option.
Lets say i have a button on frame 1. And if you press it normal, you ll get to frame 2. But then if you click it on another way, you ll get to frame 3. How do i do that easy?! With another way i mean like shift click or ctrl click or is it an easier way?
View 3 RepliesI have a mc with the instance name of 'resume'. When clicked, I want a resume to download to the user's desktop. I'm currently doing this:
resume.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, downloadFunction);
function downloadFunction(event: MouseEvent) {
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("profile_images/resume.pdf");
navigateToURL(request);
}
I haven't put this on the server yet, so I'm just testing it locally, thus the url request not having an actual url address. Is this correct? I use this same code, roughly, for the loading of external links... and images etc. When I test it, the pdf doesn't pop up.
I have a dynamically loaded data through xml, and I want to include an option to download a file (.rar) on a link click.
View 1 RepliesI have read all threads and can not find a solution but i am not somebody with a lots of knowledge about actionscript so here is my problem i am using this script .
[code]....
the problem is that when i click on the first button loads ok but when click on second still showing the first movie clip in the back ,,,,, i have try everything without luck ,,,, i guess i need to keep reading but will like to find an answer to this situation ,
I created a movieclip animation that only activates when i rollover the movieclip button. I further extended the frames and created another frame animation that i active only when user clicks the button. So i have a roll over/out animation and click animation in the same movieclip in the same layer. Now the problem is that when i click on the button, its supposed to take me to another page, and it does, unfortunately without the click animation. That means after i click on the button its supposed to first finish the click animation and then go to another page. But when i click, it takes me to another page without showing the click animation
SO I tried the If function, but i seem to make a mistake somewhere and i dont know what to do. Now there is no error in script, but onw there is a problem in link, the button finishes the click animation but it does not go to the tarrgeted"about" frame. here's the code

Basically, I have a button and on click it displays a menu. I want to click that menu a second time and the menu closes. Currently, every time you click the button, the menu reopens. I pasted the Flex livedoc example below. If you click the button, the menu keeps reopening.Now, I rigged it up by setting a var to open and closed, so when clicking the button it does a check. However, if you click away from the screen, the HIDE event gets dispatched, and the menu closes. This messed up the open close var being set.
How could I make this Flex example below show the menu on button click, and then on a second button click, it closes the menu? Take into affect that if you click away from the menu, it closes it.Also, I played around with the MOUSE_DOWN_OUTSIDE event for the button and set the preventDefault, and the FlexMouseEvent event.cancelable is set to false.Changing to a PopUpMenuButton is not an option. I have to much skinning involved.Here is the Flex example:
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
// Import the Menu control.
import mx.controls.Menu;

I am building a flash interface and I would like a menu where it is hidden to begin with (just a tab). You click the tab to expand it, and click again to collapse it. I've made a movieclip with animation of the menu opening up and closing, but I can't seem to work out how I'd go about making the movieclip open and close properly.

View 1 RepliesI have a test button i would like to have play a movie where a graphic expands. Once stopped, I would like to be able to click that same button and have the graphic go backwards. I would prefer to have timeline reverse, rather than lengthen the timeline of the mc because then i have to line up the start and end, and if one changes, i have to remember to change the other.
