ActionScript 3.0 :: Make Flash Banner's Links Not Open In A New Window?
Aug 18, 2009
I'm having a little trouble with my flash banner. When I click on my button, it opens the link I specified in a new window or new tab, like target _blank in HTML. I want it to open in the same window, so you're still navigating through the site. Here's my button's code: link_btn5.addEventListener(MouseEvent.... goToURL5); function goToURL5(e:MouseEvent):void{ navigateToURL(new URLRequest ("/forums/index.php "));}

How on earth do I get the HTML links inside a flash movie open up in the same browser window where said movie is embedded in (As opposed to opening up as a new pop-up windows)? Here is the code I have inside each of the buttons I have inside my flash movie:
var link7:URLRequest=new URLRequest("videos/december.html");
videos_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClicked7);
function buttonClicked7(event:MouseEvent):void
{
navigateToURL(link7);
}

I have a rotating banner that I have created and it receives it's image and url info from an XML document. When you click on the image displayed it takes you to the correct link but it opens it in a new window. Is there a way to make the link open in the current window?

What I am trying to do, is to make a flash banner that links to more than one URL. I have looked around for a solution for this problem of mine, but haven't found a thing. I've made banners before, linking to only one URL and that hasn't been a problem. I tried to copy/paste the AS stuff from one layer to another, but that just gave me an error message: 1021: Duplicate function definition
Google pointed out this forum when I was looking for a solution to that problem, and I tried mixing numbers in the buttonClickHandler among other things. Sure enough the error went away, but I still can't get the .swf to to work as I want it to. Now it just exports and lets me know that there are buttons there, but they don't take me anywhere.

I am trying to have multiple links off site but have hit a brick wall. If I have the code listed below, it opens the second link as soon as you open the links page, If I have the"function onLinkClick (evt)", above btn6_btn I end up with the duplicate error message. Is there a way to have multiple link buttons on a page. I have played with this for hours.

The flash player has a little window that can be opened (similar to flash->settings) telling the user to update the player if the movie loaded is for a more recent version. How can you instruct the player to do this? ITV have managed it with their catchup-tv player.
Context: I am allowing users to copy flash into their PowerPoint presentations and would like to tell them to update their flash player if necessary. I am not embedding a web page in the power point so no JS can be run for checking etc (because I know this is not necessary).

I work with 3d animation. Im have a problem with a personal website Im doing, I have a link in a button inside a flash movie to open a new window and play a youtube movie:
on (release) {
var jscommand:String = "window.open('http://www.youtube.com/v/b0L4XLODhAA&hl=en&fs=1&','win','height=344,width=4 25,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes');"; getURL("javascript:" + jscommand + " void(0);");
}
This works fine in Firefox but in IE it doesnt work, I then change the /v/ in the youtube link with /p.swf?video_id= and now I have the window open showing the small youtube thumbnail of my video but once a click play, nothing happens, I check it and is not loading anything.

I was given the following code to have my button open a link.
testbtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, gotest);
function gotest(event:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.bing.com/"));
}
This function works fine except that it opens all my links in new windows or tabs. I added the "_self" parameter to the function and created the following:

i have created some flash banners with a url embedded in them, so when they are placed on a web page the banner links through to my website when clicked. Fairly simple.But, i tested them on a website on my server to link to another website on the server and they worked fine. When i gave them to a client to embed on their own website (the flash files are hosted on my server still), the links no longer work.
Is this a security issue to stop the links working? i also checked it in linux and the banners worked, but in windows they do not. I dont want the client to have their own local copy of the flash file, as i may update it in the future and dont want to chase up lots of different copies everywhere.

Flash noob here using cs3/as3. I'm trying to create a simple banner which fades between 2 images, looped. (This I can do!). What I'd like is to have each image link to a different url. I've tried changing the images to buttons with the following actionscript:
on (release) {
getURL('http://www.mysite.com', '_self');
}
but get the following error: Mouse events are permitted only for button instances even though they are buttons! I thought this would be really simple, but obviously not! Any ideas are gratefully received.

I have a banner that I'm creating, it has 5 images that rotate via motion tweening. I've created an invisibile button (and also attempted to create multiple buttons) so that when you click on a specific image it will bring you to that URL. So far I have only gotten it to work for the final URL. No matter which image I click on, it only brings up that last URL.
Here is my code:
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClickHandler1);
function buttonClickHandler1(event:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.google.com"));
}

I'm working on a project for a client and I'm doing something I have never done in Flash. The Flash first loads four images that have been converted to buttons. Those four by itself link correctly, but when I add the code for the next two sets of images the code breaks and none of the links work. I'm not sure what to do. Here is the code for the first two sets of images:
The last two links cause a problem. I get Error 1120 access of undefined object. However, when I click the button and look in the properties box it says Instance of BTN_Adult01 and Instance of BTN_ModelFemale so I'm not sure what the problem is.
I tried to paste my source code but it won't let me because it contains links and I don't have enough posts, but I did attach the file.
