I'm using a simple piece of code on a button...
on(press){
_level0.prevFrame();
}
... to go to previous frame but for some reason it causes the main movie clip to flicker. Is this a known problem or am I doing something wrong?

This seems pretty basic but for some reason I absolutely can't get it to work. I have a set of buttons which I want to be able to send their parent movie to the next or previous frame. I want to use a NEXT and PREVIOUS button, both combined within a single movieclip, to tell a parent file to go to next and previous frame.
This doesn't work:
previous_btn.onRelease = function(){
this._parent.prevFrame;
} next_btn.onRelease = function(){
this._parent.nextFrame;

I have my flash on multiple scenes, and would like to play an animation when clicking on the navigation button before switching to a different scene.
I'm halfway to accomplishing this.
Here is what i used
Code:
_root.gotoAndPlay("changepage1");
_root.onEnterFrame=function(){
if(this._currentframe=="changepage2"){
[Code]....
The above code is on a blank keyframe. Changepage1 is the start of the animation and Changepage2 is the end of the animation.
Upon clicking the navigation button it plays the above scenes.
However it doesn't change scenes to scene "Home2".

news_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, news)function news (event:MouseEvent):void { gotoAndStop(2)}

I have a number of buttons (that are in an array), I want to add a function that basically says:
If the name of the button that you have just clicked on == (is the same as the name of the scene label) then go to that scene: Now I have used this handler function which seems to work O.K, except for the fact that it keeps trying to goto the FRAME label instead of SCENE label.
I keep getting the error message when i click on a button saying:
ArgumentError: Error #2109: Frame label mars not found in scene home.
at flash.display::MovieClip/gotoAndStop()
function autoGoTohandle(event:MouseEvent):void {
for (var i:int = 0; i < arrayItem.length; i++) {
if (event.currentTarget == arrayItem[i]) {
gotoAndStop((destArray)[i]);
}}}
I figured it must be this line of code at the end: gotoAndStop(+(destArray)[i]);
But how do I change it so it goes to the scene label name and not the frame label name? I Tried adding quote marks like
gotoAndStop(("destArray)[i]");
But I am getting errors.

I've got a movieclip acting as a button. Code on the button itself handles roll-over/-out states, and I define an onRelease function in the main timeline as follows:
[Code]...
This code takes the movie back to the first frame and works on the third frame. For some reason, though, the same code on the fifth frame has no effect. The button doesn't do anything. I have tried using the same button, I tried inserting a new keyframe with a new button, renaming the button, etc. and for some reason I just can't get it to work on the fifth frame. If it helps to visualize, I am essentially making a menu. The first frame contains buttons to take you to submenus, located on following slides. This button to go back to the original menu is on each frame with a submenu, but for some reason only works on one of them.

Basically, I have a flash app with various frames, each frame contains a "help" button, which when clicked takes the user to one seperate frame with various informative instructions on it. The help button is like a universal tool incase the users need help.
Now, no matter what frame the user is on, if they click the help button, sure enough, it takes them to the "help" frame. The big problem I have, is that I cannot fathom a way to make the users RETURN to the exact frame they came from.
For instance, the user is viewing a frame in the app called "Question 2", they get stuck, they click on the "help" button, it takes them to the "help" page. After veiwing the instructions, they need to return to the question 2 frame, possibly by clicking a "back" button of some description. Likewise if they were on a frame called "Question 3" - they need to return to this frame if they click the help button.
In a nutshell, I need to create a button that takes the user back to the previous frame from the "help" frame, like a dynamic link back or something.

I created a website with 4 movie clips; home (at Frame 10), (gallery at Frame 20), about (at Frame 30), contact (at Frame 40). I have a short opening and closing animation that I want to play when you click between the movie clips.
I can easily put the opening animation in a frame before each movie clip, but I'm having trouble with the closing animation. I guess I can create 3 separate closing movies on each movie clip but that is tedious. Is there a code that will allow a closing animation to play then direct you to the movie clip that you chose? -no matter which movie you are on and clicing to.
I'm guessing this is some kind of function that will be attached to my 4 button instances.Currently I have simple gotoAndPlay code to control the navigation, like this code to go from home to the gallery at Frame20:
ActionScript Code:
stop();
butn_home.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);
function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay(20);
}

I am working on this flash website that holds an intro animation which is a .flv file placed in a .fla file. I am trying to figure out the Actionscript needed to tell it to go to the next frame within the same movie once the flv file has played. Right now it just stops and sits on the last frame of the flv file or the flv file just loops.

I have a long timeline with a series of slides arranged along it with a labeled frame at the beginning of each slide.These slides do not have any standardized length so instead of counting out frames and jumping a set number I am trying to navigate with my previous and next buttons to frame labels stored in an array.
This works GREAT!Or rather...it works great if you're rapidly hitting the Next and Previous buttons to step through the area.The problem comes when you sit and try to watch the whole thing play out and then try to use the next button.If you have passed framelabel2 and hit the next button it returns you to framelabel2.If you have passed framelabel3 and hit the next button it returns you to framelabel2. Clearly the problem is that it does not know it has gone past framelabel1 and is thus gotoandplay-ing the next frame in the array...which is 2.I need to make it check its current position in the array before adding 1 and advancing the playhead.
var fLabels:Array = new Array("start1", "start2", "start3", "start4", "start5", "start6", "start7");
var cLabel:Number = 1;
function nextPlayClick(evt:MouseEvent):void {[code].....

at first, I thought I could manage this myself searching the forums about "preloader" but none of the solutions seem to work. I think it has to do with the fact that I'm using the FLVPlayer with an external file. What am I looking for?
1. Well, the preload code for frame 1 that makes sure the external F4V (movie.f4v in the same dir) is loaded 100% before it jumps to frame 2 where the movie should start playing...
2. If possible, a progress bar.

What im trying to do is play a movie clip between frames. So say we have two menus, when you are on menu 1 and you click the button for menu 2, a short movie clip plays and then you stop on menu 2. I realise I can do this by putting the movie clip on the main scene timeline, but is there anyway i can put it on the button? I think the action script would be something along the lines of "On release play MovieClip and goto frame X" As i said i want the movie to play as an almost filmic transition between menus, with a fade up and then out (Have got that bit sussed using the alpha controls)

I have a Flash movie that uses three scenes. In scene one I have a button with some actionscript to take it to a frame label in that first scene and play the movie from that point on. It works fine. The problem is, in the third scene, I am trying the same action with a different button, going to a different frame label in that third scene. I am getting an error saying the frame label does not exist in that scene. Even though it does! I've checked for typos and everything looks fine. I've copied and pasted the simple actionscript from the third scene below. Is there a line I need to add to make this work in a scene that is not the first scene?
rocketstart_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, rocketbutton);
function rocketbutton(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay("rocket");
}

I am starting to use as3 and I'm with problems. What I wanted to do is: I have a movieclip and I want to load another movie clip inside the main one. That part I can do and I use this code:
Code:
var carregador:Loader = new Loader();
var arquivo tring = "main.swf";
var requisicao:URLRequest = new URLRequest(arquivo);
carregador.x = 150;
carregador.y = 150;
carregador.load(requisicao);
this.addChild(carregador);
Now I want to have a button on the main movieclip with an action to send the loaded movie clip (main.swf) to frame 50. How can I do that?
I tried:
Code:
myBtn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, qualquer, false, 0, true);
function qualquer(MouseEvent) {
MovieClip(root).carregador.gotoAndStop(50);
}

I have this action on my buttons:
on (press) {
_root.nPage = "company";
AnimationMC.play();
} on (press) {
gotoAndPlay(3);
}
I am trying to have a button change frames on the main timeline (gotoAndPlay X) and also load a MC on the same click. I think what is happening is because the on(press) is separate it is causing my pages to load at different times when I click real fast when AnimationMC is playing. However if I wait for the animation to load first it works %99 of the time.
