I want to link a button to a movie clip, but it will not play. Here is how it is set up. On my main scene on second layer on frame 2, I have a movie called homeContent within which I have another movie called pdbutton within which I have another movie called pdrbt. This movie called pdrbt needs to play a movie on the main scene on layer content on frame 3 movie called streetSidemc_mc. Here is my code,

Scenario : Scrolling textbox with buttons and header text
I currently have a button - that when i click it - i ideally want it to jump to a text header in the scrolling text box - i seemed to be stumped trying to code the button.
I was thinking about making the headers of the texts, a movie clip and linking the button to the movie clip - i tried a goToAndPlay - but i'm not sure if thats a correct command to use (cause it doesnt work ).
I know this is novice, but how can I add links to movie clip buttons?
View 1 RepliesI saved as swf & got this error msg in the compiler errors: Symbol=but1,layer 4, frame=1 Mouse events are only for button instancesIn the library I checked the properties of the button and its a movies clip, I'm not sure if it will make any difference if I change to button or graphic?I would like to upload the fla and swf files but this forum doesn't seem to allow me to attach files to messages.

I have created a flash website, each button is a movie clip with an invisible button over it containing the following script
on (rollOver) {
_root.mouse_over_profile_btn = true;
}
on (rollOut) {
[Code]....
each page is also a movie clip and on release of a button its played. the problem is that when i press another button to play another movie clip 'page' the old content is still there.
Is there a way of reversing the page transition i have used to bring out the movie clip and then bring in the next movie clip.
At the moment I have a project where I have a map with different buttons for different sections. When I rollover the buttons, I want brief information for that section to appear in another movie clip.
So the way I have it set up is as follows:
Movie clip one: map_mc is placed on main time line
Button: button_btn placed on map_mc timeline
Movie clip two: textbox_mc is placed on main time line
map_mc has a button named button1_btn placed on its time line.
Upon rollover, I want button1_btn to change the content in textbox_mc by going to frame 1 of text_box mc's time line.
At the moment I have this code on the map_mc timeline for the button. I brake the map when I preview it so I'm pretty sure I'm going about it the wrong way.[code]...
I want to link from a movie clip to a url but I want to make it load the url in the same window...The code I have already opens a new indow every time. It is as follows:

function homeboy(e:MouseEvent):void
{
navigateToURL(link)

View 1 RepliesI want to link this movie clip button I have in my flash header to go to an external site when clicked. I've tried EVERY combo, and watched every video....I'm exhausted. The code sitting in the actions on the movie clip seems like it all needs to stay there except for a link= part...so what do i add to it?
the code there now to start w/o the link part:
onClipEvent (load) {
num = 3;
this.hitArea = this.area;

I have it where the links in the header load an external swf for the content. What I want to be able to do is link to another page from within the external swf. As in, when you click a link it loads in the current frame, keeping the header.

I am trying to move a movie clip containing content via AS3 tween with a button outside of the movie clip. I have achieved this effect on another project by using the following code:
Actionscript Code:
var myxTween:Tween=new Tween(content_mc,"x",Regular.easeOut,content_mc.x,theXPosition,.8,true);
I set up a moveContent funtion using that tween, then used:
Actionscript Code:
content_mc.aboutBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, aboutClick);function aboutClick(e:MouseEvent):void { trace("aboutClick");current_btn=e.currentTarget.name; moveContent(588,-538,"about.swf");}
to move the content. I am just wondering how to achieve the same effect but use a button on a separate layer that will be static.

I'm trying to make a program for an e-commerce project I'm involved in that will allow our users to listen to sample clips from a given CD. I've listed all the tracks in an array called trackList. Here's the code to play a given track from that array:
function playTrack(event:MouseEvent):void{
switch(event.currentTarget.name){
case "track01":[code]....
The event target that I've bolded is the given movie clip button that the user has clicked; at frame two, the button turns yellow. When the clip is finished, the button should return to frame 1, but I can't get that to happen.
I suspect I need to put the event listener to make the button's color change back on the sound channel (sndChan), but I don't know how I could write that function so that it will apply to which ever button happens to be active.
I've got an XML document that holds the info for a Press section I'm doing for a client. The XML holds the path to a thumbnail, the headline text and a link to the original article. I'm having no problem getting the thumbnails to load in and the headline was a breeze too. Put them both in holders so I could position them later. My trouble comes when I try to pass the link attributes to a button that also gets attached to each press clipping. I can trace out the link array that I create to hold my XML data but when I try to pass it to a getURL function inside a button in the same For loop "i" is never passed.
Code:
var yPos:Number = 0;
var xPos:Number = 0;
var spacer:Number = 6;
var imgPathArr:Array = new Array();
var headlineArr:Array = new Array();
var linkArr:Array = new Array();
