I've got a flash file loaded on more than 150 sites. The button in the file currently goes to a single URL, but we are developing individual URLs for the link for each site. How can I do this in one flash file? I don't want to create 150 flash files with different links. Can I variables or something?

View 6 RepliesSo, I have tons o' buttons that each need to link to unique URLs, and I'd like to minimize coding as much as possible. The code below works, but I will have to do this about 50 times.Can I associate the URLs with the instance names of the buttons and then reuse the same function?In the event you didn't already guess, I'm a newbie to AS3
cap_mc.CapTeam_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, capPage);
function capPage (evtObj:MouseEvent) { trace("clicked") var url:String = "http://www.mydomain.com"; var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);

Hey. I am having problems getting some movieclips to link to different URLs on release. I am able to get them to animate, and I am able to get them to link to an html page seperately, but I can't get both functionalities to work at the same time (animate and geturl) and it is driving me crazy!! I've tried putting the actionscript in the instance object, in the action layer, and other things and nothing seems to work!?

View 1 RepliesI have a small flash movie with three buttons I would like to link to three different URLs. My code for these is below, however, when I test the movie there is a namespace error (copied below). I assume this is because both buttons are trying to use the same variable but I have no idea how to make this work in AS3.
where i need to make changes so the code understand that "thisButton" should take the user to URL#1 and "thatButton" should take the user to URL#2?
This is for my own site and I have to use AS3 as there is an FLV on it as well which requires AS3 to be viewed.

I'm trying to figure out if we can use RSLs to contain common UI controls for our next project. I'm running into an organizational issue that I can't quite figure out - how to get the RSLs to work in both a local development/debugging environment, and on a production web environment, with the same exporting/importing URLs.
Here's what my setup would look like. Say I have a main application main.swf, an RSL lib.swf, and a UI module dialog.swf.
Main.swf loads or embeds dialog.swf. lib.swf exports some symbols that dialog.swf imports.
On a local development environment, these swfs are found in folders like so:
[URL]
Here is the problem. If I set the export/import url for symbols in lib.swf to "assets/lib/lib.swf" (relative to the location of main.swf), the runtime library gets loaded fine in the local environment. But in the web environment, it does not load - the player just shows the "..." graphic indicating it is trying to load.
Alternatively, I can use "http:/myapp.com/assets/lib/lib.swf" as the export/import url. Now, it will work in the web environment. However, in the local environment, dialog.swf will load symbols from the lib.swf that is out on the web, not the one that is local. But I need it to load from the local version, so that designers can muck about with the assets and see the results locally before publishing to the web.
Is there some alternative way to set up the swf's, or way to set the URLs, or some other hoop I can jump through that will make the RSL load properly in either environment without having to manually change URLs all the time?
(Details: I am using Flash Builder 4, CS 5, Action Script 3, Flash Player 10... No Flex! My example omits some details from my actual setup, such as the fact that we are using a preloader to load the main application, and a php script on the web page to start the preloader.)
I have a slide show swf file with an invisible button on the top frame. I would like this button to go to different URLs depending on what frame the movie is on when it is clicked. Is this possible?
The following works for one url:
oneBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, oneButtonFunction);
function oneButtonFunction(event: MouseEvent) {
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://webpage/");
navigateToURL(request);
}
The reason I am trying to do it this way is I want the script to all be on one frame because I will be using this as a template for other slide shows and want to be able to edit the urls all in one window. I already have a slide show with key frames at the places where the new url would be accessed is click, but it is a pain to edit and add new content.
I am stumped on a problem that I've been searching the forums for, but can't seem to find an answer to. I was hoping a Flash genius here might have an idea. I'm working on a site in which I'm having issues with a mailto button. Here's the deal. The site shows up in "two" places (although they both pull from the same .swf files) [URL] and [URL] The site is built using Actionscript 2.0 and publishes for Flash Player 6. I'm using both CS3 and CS4 (depending on what computer I'm working on) but always publish for CS3.
On the www location, the mailto button works properly and opens up an email. On the http:// location the button does NOT work, and will not open an email. These buttons can be found in the "who" section - when the user clicks on a profile it opens a new window with a headshot - which are the "buttons" in question. I've done tests on the server, nesting buttons inside multiple movie clips to re-create the scenario. And they work. And I've also changed the button to a movie clip using:

i created my subMenu buttons fine, however i only know how to link them to a picture/url address, my goal is to have the user click the subMenu button and open the image or page right below the menu bar in the "stage" area of flash. I read about IFrames but i'd rather create the whole site in flash .Here is the code for my subMenu...
btn_34th.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClickHandler);
function buttonClickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("images/34th.jpg"));
trace("I'm Clicked!");
Again, this works fine, i just want to have the image take up the "white" space on the stage area, very similar to an IFrame.
I've trawled the web, everyone with different ideas on how to call up a mailto link in AS3. What I'm looking for is this: I have a box, that is coverted to a button symbol given the name 'mailto'I have another layer for the actionscript I have imported 'flash.net.navigateToURL' and 'flash.net.URLRequest'
I know I need to create a function or a variable to link in the already created button. Do I also need to import the MouseEvents?
I created this FLA to get used to CS4 (i was previously using8)Everything works wonderfully, I would just like to know how to use AS3 properly, without having to call defeat and create the FLA again using AS2.
I have to make a worldmap for a customer. Everything works just fine, but now I have to link from the main swf, to another swf. This last SWF has also an XML attached to it. Now the question is, how to do that. Oh and the main swf has a button which should go to the other swf.
If you have a minute , I will try to give you the Flash file. As it is for a customer I can't always give this.
I have an an array of objects. I populate the datagrid from the array. The nmber of columns in the datagrid is fix i.e.5 and the first column always shows serial number (0,1,2,3,4). I have a link button called 'CLEAR' in the last column of the datagrid.
1> How do I make the clear button visible only when the row is particularly clicked 2> When the clear button is clicked, how do I make the contents of that particular row cleared. Not deleted, only cleared to insert data again. Also, the serial number (0,1,2,3,4) should not be cleared, nor deleted. How to do this ?
I am trying to make a button in such a way so that after you clicked on it, the button will change colour, indicating that the link has been visited.

I want to create a small color game. So far I am stuck at the first part. I already created the layers and buttons. What I am stuck on is the actual coding part. This is what i am stuck on, a start that will start sending 5 boxes from the starting point to the ending point. Each moving box will have its own buttons that allow it change its color. 1st click is blue, 2nd is red, 3rd is green, 4th is back to white. What ever color is recieve at the end point, it will send another color box back. So if a red reach the end point it will send a blue box back, or if a white reach the end it will send a orange box back.
View 0 RepliesI'm Trying to develop a small game where the user chooses from a range of boxes of the left of screen and can drag 3 of them separatley to 3 holding boxes on ther right. each box can be dragged to any location and the order is not important. Once the 3 holding boxes are all full I want a new button to appear. I completed a tutorial and I've got one box working perfectly but no matter what i try I can't get it working with multiple boxes and locations. Below is a list of the instance names of the movie clips plus my actionscript. I've attached a link to the flash file.

INSTANCE NAMES
box 1 = "circle_mc"
box 2 = "circle_mc2"
both the grey boxes are called = "targetCircle"

I have a logo that I'd like to animate for a class presentation. The logo can be seen here: [URL]. I would like only the word LEAF to fade in, and then the blue portion to wind its way around (Starting at the gap at the top, going clockwise and finishing by revealing to two shorter lines in the center). At first I tried to mask the blue portion in segments, but couldn't figure out how to link multiple symbols together to mask the same image.
View 1 RepliesIn one of our project we are using flex for front end, blazeds/java in the backend. Its an existing code where services are prewritten. I have to make calls to 3 services in the backend (basically 3 remote objects) and get their result and store the result in an object and show the data of this object in a view.
Now in front end we are using Flex and Parsley Framework. I was thinking of the following approaches.
1) Making commands for each service call and storing the result in a shared object (model) and then displaying this model in the view. In this approach the problem is some services are needed in some other web pages, but they donot need the same model. How should i handle this scenario ? Should i make a asynchronous remote call and fetch the result and then again dispatch and event with the event object storing the result.
2) Making a service call , wait for the result then make another call and wait for the result and then make other call, not sure if this is the right way ?
