ActionScript 3.0 :: Linking A Swf File To A Html Page?
Apr 11, 2012
My class is using AS3 and they built a Flash Intro for their web site. However, we are not able to link the button in flash to our local html pages. Right now both the swf and the home.html page are located on my desktop in a folder titled
I have an intro MovieClip that plays before entering my site. As of now, the user has to manually click an "enter/skip intro" button before they can go to the html page where the website swf is.
The problem is when the animation finishes and a "click here" button comes up, it takes several clicks for the button to actually work. It eventually goes to the url but only after multiple clicks, between 1 and 8. The hit box of the button is larger than the button itself so its not the empty counters in the letters or spaces between words.
I have reviewed and applied this wonderfull explanation contained in the post thread response from Mr. Catbert303 "linking to specific frame number or label from an html page" about the javascript and actionscript code combination wich allows the swf movie to force-jump into specific framelabel or framenumber and it also works perfectly whenever i go from the link "back to swf" on my plain html page to the movie content page (also html). But i need my swf movie content page to start playing from cero whenever it is played from start and not begining always at the specifyed frame in the actionscript code:
if (frame != "") { gotoAndPlay(frame); }
I have tried everything within the "if" & "else" conditionals and i can't get the swf movie content page to start playing from frame 1 everytime it is called up, but instead it looks like it reads the actionscript code described above and always takes you to the specifyed framelabel, not playing it from the start. I have a hunch i'm missing something extra on my actionscript code wich must determine if the swf file is to jump to the specified frame or start playing from cero, because if i remove the above AS2 code from frame 1, it then starts playing from cero normally like it should but won't jump to the specifyed frame when also needed from the HTML page.
I'm having a problem in linking sub menu buttons to specific frames in that html pageYou can follow the sample site to better understand.f these submenu buttons to [URL]
I'm having a problem in linking sub menu buttons to specific frames in that html page. You can follow the sample site to better understand. [URL] If you click on "Films" a submenu appears. I want all of these submenu buttons to link to [URL] but each go to a specific frame label in the .swf located within [URL]. For example:[URL]("equipment" frame label within .swf) or [URL]("tips and tricks" frame label within .swf)
I am using the flash which has welcome animation. inside the flash i have external links to html files. But when i want come back to home page(which is flash) from html page, I need my flash to start from home page not from introduction animation.So how can I link to the particular layer/clip without repeating introduction animation?
I'm making a site right now. First there is an intro and then when one clicks on a button (for choosing your language), a new page should open (.html page made in dreamweaver) in the same window, but I don't know how to do this.
This is my actionscript now (but it doens't work):
hey there guys im doing my final major poject for college in media and were making a set of films and making a flash interface to go with them i was just wondering how can i make links in flash that either link to a an localy saved Html document or a localy saved .mov? i know how to link them to a website but not a locally saved file?
1 -I have a flv file on one frame.I imported my video and CS3 added it to my library.I change parameters to autoplay and autorewind. This is on one frame.My flv file name is movie.flv
2- When this is done playing I want it to automatically go to main.html
3-I read a previous answer on this that gives the following code which I inserted right on the same frame that my flv is loaded.I named the instance name of this flv as "flv"
It isn't working.Here is the code I picked up on previous forum:So I put this on the frame where the flv is loaded which is scene 2 frame 1 and instance name of flv.
flv.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,completeF); function completeF(e:Event){ navigateToURL(new URLRequest("main.html"));
Statement must appear within on/onClipEvent handler .The class or interface 'Event' could not be loaded.I can't add a get URL code because it is a flv on one frame.
I have inserted a small video as a SWF file into my homepage along with Play, Pause, FullScreen and Mute buttons (loaded from the Flash Components panel). The Play, Pause and Mute buttons work fine. But when I click on the FullScreen Button nothing happens. It won't open the SWF video in a new page at full resolution.

In the code below what is addvariable doing also i need to embed the swf only in my html page and it is not php. how to embed the swf file in html page
I want to load html page in same swf file using button i created one flash file in that i make the one button when i click on that button i want load the html page in that same flash file and hide that button and when click on back button again i see that button
above.the .swf is already embedded in html page. and i have couple of buttons from .swf file and how do i call call the html page with the button inside .swf file
I want to get an idea on how the majority of people structure the flash websites they make.First, do most of you actionscripters, when creating a website, use a parent movie that holds the sites navigation and an embedded blank movie clip to load individual content pages? I get the feeling that is true because it saves a lot of space in your swf file.
That was the easiest question. Next, when you create a transition effect to keep the viewer occupied between loading different pages, how do you usually go about this?Assuming you have a blank movieclip in the main SWF to load individual page content.Do you have a movieclip animation that is called in the main SWF that is a layer above or masks the container movieclip which is loading the external content? Or, do you have the transition in the actual content SWF, with a transition in effect, midframe with the content, then transition out effect.
It seems the second choice might be a little more repetitive, but maybe a little more simple, then again, maybe not.My last question is not actionscript but javascript.I want to load my flash file from a link on an html page that launches a new window that is perfectly sized around the flash movie, with none of the menu bars and that works on windows(ie, netscape, opera) and MACs.As a secondary, if its possible,I would like to have the flash movie pop up into the center of the screen, right now it pops into the top left corner.Here is the script I have. It works for PCs with IE, but a friend that looked at it on her MAC had to resize the window:
This may sound like a dumb question, but how would I make a swf file display an html page similar to what an IFrame does? Would I have to use a Javascript command to have a window pop up when the movie is Loaded?
I have a small swf file embedded in a div with CSS. When a button is clicked I want there to be some content showing up outside the boundaries of the smaller swf. Is this possible? How might I be able to do this with CSS/HTML/Flash?
I put together an .html page using a photoshop jpg that I sliced into sections. I was asked to replace two graphics from the original .jpg file with animated content of the same size. Using my slices as a guide for size, I created the two animated graphics in flash and saved them out as .swf files. They are both the exact same size(px) as the static images. I opened my newly sliced html file in dreamweaver, deleted the static images and placed the .swf files.
For some reason the .swf files cause gaps in my html page. Tere are no borders on the .swf files and I can't figure what I've done wrong.
One note: It seems to only ad space when viewing from Mozilla. Havent' tested it on a pc yet either.[URL]
Below is code for the left hand speaker:
<td colspan="3" rowspan="4"><object id="FlashID" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="246" height="378"> <param name="movie" value="index_images/speaker_left.swf"> <param name="quality" value="high"> <param name="wmode" value="opaque"> <param name="swfversion" value="7.0.70.0"> <!-- Next object tag is for non-IE
I have a main.swf file. In first frame i load a background slideshow with this code:
[Code]...
My problem is that when the site loads the 1st time and click from the menu to go to the 2nd frame (1st content page) then i have to wait at about 3-4 seconds to load my html content. The same for the 3rd frame. If these two content pages load for the 1st time, then the pages open immediately. What can i do for this? Is there a way to open this content pages more quickly, or place a loader, and with what code?
i want to call a javascript function from within an embeded swf file in a html page and i'm using the ExternalInterface class. i know this function must be defined in a <script> tag in the html page. however, i want to have all my javascript code in an external file, but it doesn't work. my trial file just can't find the function, although i have my external js file linked in the header.
I load an external html content page through contents.xml file, in page.swf, which loads in main.swf like external file. The code of contents.xml is this:
I am trying to send some information to a javascript function on the same html page as the swf file is in. I used the tutorial here on Kirupa but for same way it doesnt work.
I have an HTML page with buttons. Each button needs to have a getURL to open the Flash site, but then somehow, needs to also load the appropriate swf into that Flash site... My reasoning is because I have some scripts under my site that need to be in HTML (or PHP) for search engines, that way I don't have to do the whole site in HTML.. I hate having a HTML index page, but it's the only solution I could come up with. So, when a visitor selects any of the navigation buttons, I don't want them to have to select that button again, when the Flash site loads. how to do this for Flash 7 / AS 2.0? Or if there are any posts here about it?
I have created a SWF file that plays/stops sound. The SWF file works great when previewed in Flash CS4, but does not work when inserted in the HTML file.Here are the 2 files that are automatically generated when I INSERT>MEDIA>SWF in Dreamweaver CS4:

I made 5 movieclipbuttons in actionscript and placed them inside a dreamweaver file.The only problem now is that I don't know how to link them to the correct page on my website.I've tried adding the next code but I get syntax errors(home2_mc referring to the movieclip:[code]
I am trying to link 5 buttons I have made in flash CS5 AS3 to 5 pages and I have made this code, but I keep getting error message 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addEventListener through a reference with static type Class. My code is
stop(); function button1_clicked(e:MouseEvent):void{ gotoAndStop("page1"); }
