ActionScript 3.0 :: Link Some Text To An External Website?
Aug 20, 2009
I am trying to link some text to an external web site. I am using the following code, but whenever I try to launch the external web site, I get prompted by Adobe Flash Player Security saying that it has stopped a potentially unsafe operation. It then tells me that I need to change my security settings in order to view the website. I am wondering if there is any way around stopping the security check, or is this built into Flash?
var linkLaunch:URLRequest = new URLRequest('content/web/fuel/project/home.html'); navigateToURL(linkLaunch);
In my movie I now load external text. But I want words in the external text to trigger my swf's. How do I do it? Since working on a mac I use BBEdit. Should I use html?
I have a 90% all flash-site and when u click news webpage splits up in HTML blended with flash in a page called news.asp
(buttons are in flash and content in asp bellow)When loceted on news.asp and you click... let's say service you go back to index.html with the flash main.swf, but the link has ALSO have to go to label (service) or frame 30 lets say...

I've followed the tutorial on importing data from an external text file into flash but I need to make the email address active.As per the tutorial the actionscript in the flash file is:
loadText = new LoadVars(); loadText.load("data2.txt"); loadText.onLoad = function() {
I followed the tutorial [URL] and it works perfect. But I wanna go a step further, how do I link a word in the external text file? It seems that html code <a href="www.me.com">CLICK</a> doesn't show as a link, but exactly as text.
I have 2 websites both built entirely in flash.My problem is that I have created a button on 1 of the sites that has to link to a particular scene and frame within a different flash website.
I have a very general requirement that seemed very simple: Step 1: Load a new external JPEG image into a MC with a string var encoding a string caption in the URL link (VALUE="../fadeTest.swf?someTextVar=TestCaption") within the EMBED / OBJECT sections. I know how to do this and it semed to work fine. STEP2: When the JPEG is loaded I would like the substituted Text to Fade In over the JPEG. The JPEG should also fade in before the Text. The fade rate should be programmable.
I am trying to program an app that searches for a project but I have two issues.1st when I click the search button the project opens up my browser.2nd I want the value to return the url, so I can parse it and use it as an xml, so I can get specific tags in the return of my search.
a bit of background info: I once made an app for finding your horoscope in flash, which retrieved an xml file(from an rss feed) on click and went to the right div tag within the file. I am not sure if this is the same way for using a regular website, but when I inspect html pages it seems like the same format. I am hoping to get only the return values of the search and not the rest of the stuff around it, and have it show up in a box to scroll through.
Trying to make it so when you click anywhere on the flash file, it loads a specific website. It works when I go to File > Preview > Flash, but if I try and preview in html it doesn't navigate anywhere. My actionscript is:
Code: myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onMouseClick); function onMouseClick(e:MouseEvent):void {
I have created a flash website which contains a link to an outside website. When I click on the link, it takes me to that outside website in the same browser window. To go back to my website, I have to use the back arrow. I want to change the link to the outside website so that the link opens in a new window. Therefore, if somebody goes to the link, when they finish they can close the new link's window and the original window with my website will still remain, without losing both upon closing. What do I need to adjust in order to do this?
I am using Flash Cs4 and I want to open a website window with a button click, but I want the window to open seperately without closing the first webpage. When the button is clicked, I want the user to see both pages open and in order to navigate back to the original, have them click the open window of the page instead of using the back button. It would be perfect if the second window would open smaller than the original webpage, sort of minimized, so that they can still see the original pages content. I can use either actionscript 3, or actionscript 2. Whichever will acomplish the task. I am having the damdest time finding the correct code to do this. I have Flash Cs4, currently set to publish as actionscript3 with Flashplayer 10. I can change that to actionscript2 and Flashplayer 8 if anyone can give me the actionscript2 code to accomplish this task. Here is the code I am currently using to navigate to the second webpage, and yes I know it is currently actionscript 3, and this an actionscript 2 forum: Either code will work for me as long as it does the job.
addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler); function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void { navigateToURL(new URLRequest("https://mycw3.eclinicalweb.com/cent/jsp/login.jsp")); }
It does open in a second window with no back button as I want, as long as I am testing the movie in Flash. When I publish it to the web on a server, you still have to use the back button to go back the original page which is not what I want.
just using getURL doesn't work if :1)the user doesn't have auto login for facebook turned o2)did not have facebook already opened on 1 of the pages of his browser. o:It will instead redirect user to login pg after which a search page with search results. The page i want user to see is actually way back on the list. How do i link a flash website to a facebook page
I have got a small question. I have made a button with a link to a website lets say [URL].. but when you press a button i get an notification from adobe player security manager that tells me this site is trying to connect to a different site and you have to configure manually. Only after doing that button works fine. Is this going to happen to everyone when they try to use my website and is there any way i could fix that?
I am trying to create a button that link to a website and I cannot for the life of me get my flash to open a new window to a site. I am trying to have specific links to different sites for each slide, I'm not sure how to get it working. I get an error message of:
TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter url must be non-null. at global/flash.net::navigateToURL() at MethodInfo-119()
my script is the following:

I'm making a Flash website using Actionscript 3.0 and I'd like to feature a file for download, however the user will have to pay for said download. Ideally, I'd like just a "Download Now!" button on a certain page, then the user would be sent to PayPal and the downloading would commence.How do I set that, or something similar, up?
I purchased a flash website template and am in the process of editing my main.fla file. In order to get listed on an advertising website with a higher rating, I have to place a reciprocal link to them on my site. However, I cannot figure out how to place an html link/banner on my site for other businesses. If I paste the html code in a text box, all that shows up is the html code rather than the image and link it is meant to generate.
My client is complaining that the site that will be hosting her banner is refusing to add the forwarding link to her banner (that upon clicking will redirect to her website). I'd like to know how I can add this function to the Flash CS5 banner I have designed. Also, I have a clicktag on my banner if that makes a difference.
