ActionScript 3.0 :: Putting External (4) .SWF's On Homepage CS4?
Aug 11, 2009
I've got a question/request concerning my first flash website.If you look at my site you will see 4 .swf's loaded in from the sides. This effect is made possible by Jquery script. But because of lack of compatibility with Opera & Internetexplorer. I have to integrate this all in one swf. But I've got not a clue what kind of code I need to make this effect working.So to be clear what I want is Containing 4 swf's 25% height & 100% width. The slide in function is something I also would like to have (but maybe that's asking for just to much). If you want to see the code of the actionscript from the swf''s you can check it out at the included zip
been looking around for a while for this, searched for it here at as.org, scanning every article and archive I could find from the last 10 years. It just seems like how to do it right is not currently out there. Assuming coding has improved, and all of us are much smarter and more experienced than we were last decade, I bring it up once more.
I just built a carousel using Actionscript 2.0 in CS4 via an awesome tutorial on this site. I've added this carousel to an existing site and works beautifully on the home page but the problem is, when I click on a button to go to a new page, the carousel appears there as well obstructing the page content. Also, when I click back to home the carousel multiplies. My question is, how do I get the carousel to appear on the homepage ONLY and not multiply each time I click back to the home page? I'm a new Flash user.
I want to make a video background for my homepage as a welcome page. I found this code on the internet that seems to work more or less... problem is it just stretches out and fills out to much, it only stretches out to perfectly fill on the with of the swf, but goes way over the boundaries on the length... the video fills the page exactly but when the expands according to the size of the browser?
I am using AS3.0.I have created simple forward naviagtion from my homepage to my second screen using the code below and a simple button (click1)
//handle events for buttons... click1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection1); function clickSection1(evtObj:MouseEvent){[code].......
Slightly modified code is used on consequent pages to navigate forward through my site.I have also created a home button that navigates me back to my first screen (called screen2) using the following code...
home_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickhome1); function clickhome1(e:MouseEvent):void {gotoAndStop("screen2") }
However, when I return to the homepage and click forward, instead of taking me to the next page and the next page, it jumps me forward directly to the 5th. screen.
I have 2 buttons in flash.. and i need one that allow me to set as homepage for that webpage when i click. and another one allow me to bookmake that webpage when i click.
is there a code or anyother way to make different homepage load on different connectionone homepage with flash 4 TI boardbandone homepage that is plain and simple 4 56k dialup
all this pages are in one movieclip called PAG with appropriate names to moviclip and frames. I am having problem with Home page i hv some icons which shld take user to links. but its not working . and same link works fine with training page.
I'm sorry if this is the oldest flash question in the book, but I created an intro in AS3 and I don't know how to get the movie to automatically go to home page after it plays through. I added a skip button and have that part working, but I don't get the other part.
I have recently created a flash site and I am trying to update my online portfolio. How do I take a snapshot of the homepage of the flash site for my portfolio?
The loops fades a random image, which works great the first time round, if I go to another page and then back the home page (which is where this code is on frame 1) the first image loads but the random image code does not continue. I think it has something to do with nextHolderBool.
var numbers:Array = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20]; var numRemaining:Number; var randomIndex:Number; var currNumber:Number; var nextHolderBool:Number = 1; [Code] ......
I have an flv movie clip imported into a nice swf skin and it looks and performs wonderful. When it's done I want to immediately navigate to the home page of my site..
I am looking to create an area on my homepage that swaps images every 5 seconds and also has a play/pause and next feature for the view to choose if they want to click through or pause on an image. I am looking to create swaping images just like the following link under 'Top Stories'I am using Flash CS4.
I've Build this little page URL... the problem is that on my computer everything works perfect on others it dosen't show anything on some it loads and the video background works, but when you push the button "show" only the button changes and not the video background. and at some when you push "enter" only a black square appears?
For my site I've got a logo in flash. But I don't got enough knowledge of actionscript 3.0 to get it working properly. What I want is an eventlistener to go to my homepage when clicked on. [URL]. This is the code I've got until now.
Code: logo_mc.buttonMode = true var url:String = "[URL]"; var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url); try { navigateToURL(request, '_self'); // second argument is target } catch (e:Error) { trace("Error occurred!"); }
I have a button with some transition/easing on it...and a geturl function. However there is something weird happening, when the button is clicked, it sees the geturl alright, and the browser opens...but cant seem to get any further than that! [code]...
i downloaded a free of use gallery from (this gallery) and i'm trying to load it in my flash site .. now, the gallery works if i open it directly (i open the swf file)when i try to load the external swf file into my siteloadMovie("image_gallery.swf", box);then the movie loads .. the gallery is displayed the message "loading xml file" displays and then when the xml is loaded the message "loading image 1/7" displays and only the first image loads.
once the first image is loaded it will not be displayed (it remains outside of my swf file .. i can see it when i resize the window) and no other images will be loaded.if i open the gallery.sfw file again everything works fine .. the problem is only if i try to load the gallery.swf in another swf ..something must be wrong ..i tryed to opern the gallery.fla file and copt everything directly in my site and the problem remains the same .. only 1 image loaded and not displayed in the gallery
We are revising our company website and I wondered if it considered bad practise to use flash on the home page.This would cause issues for those users who dont have flash installed (and maybe dont want flash)
i just started with actionscript and flash in general a few days ago.. so im sorry if i might ask dumb questions the last 2 days i was looking for answers on the interwebs, but im just not ready yet to read and understand tasks properly, so this is my first forumthreat ever my project: i want to make a homepage (mainly for learning) with a menu (loaded swf).that menu is a panorama with buttons on it, so the menu loops to left or right according to the mouseX position.i succeeded to have that menu work, the buttons work (until now) as well, but the code that should clone the loaded content doesnt!i took those code snippets from riacodes here is my code:
recently i needed to share data between different flash .swfs on a homepage.. so i tried to use Shared Objects to do so..
sofar its fine.. i tried it .. and as long as the data is stored on my harddisk.. the sharedObject "cookies" work fine.. but when i put the site online.. they simply dont work anymore..
could this have something to do with security settings of the browser used?. doesnt a web browser allow flash to access the harddisk to read and write shared objects..
is there another.. simpler and more reliable way to send data from one .swf file to another..?? (without using php -> my webserver doesnt support this sofar )
For some reason I can't seem to link a menu on a homepage with the internal pages of the website i'm working on. The thing is that this menu is only supposed to be seen as it is on the home page (it changes to a different location, and has a different look on the internal pages). Problem is I can't seem to get the button to link to the corresponding page.
I'm a flash newb and want to be able to create a rolling product feature as on Barnes and Noble's homepage. http:[url].....I'm sure there's probably already movies or tutorials on this but don't really even know where to look.
have only a little question .. :I'm actualy working on Adobe Flash CS5 but i don't really know how it works. Then i donwloaded a flash website on internet and i can modify the main part of it but i have a problem when i'm trying to add a Cbox in my homepage. It's a basic Cbox from Cbox.ws so it's totaly in HTML. I don't know how include it in a part of my pageIt means that i would like display my Cbox on my flash homepage from HTML code
how can make a button that makes the current page my homepage? im 99% sure there's Javascript involved and I've tried writing it my self P.S if its, I got one button to work (adding to favorites),
I have a client who has a home page that I built for him. Basically there are words randomly displayed in the background. Then there are three images that rotate based on a timer. So I have two timers going. I have event listeners added to the images when the app starts. I'm moving the image off the stage when it's not visible. So I'm not adding and removing listeners over and over. However, if you watch the browser memory usage in all three major browsers it climbs several mb's in a minute. Therefore, if the user sits on the homepage the browser crashes.
I have 2 different pieces of AS for my full flash homepage but i can't get them to work at the same time properly. This first piece is to load random images onto an array on my homepage.
Code: var myImages = ["IMG_1318.jpg", "IMG_1316.jpg", "IMG_1317.jpg"]; var rand = random(myImages.length); loadMovie(this.myImages[rand], container); //trace("image loaded is "+this.myImages[rand]); stop();
That part is currently working as intended. The problem is since the stop bit was added at the end my random image array works as intended but at the same time it also stops my clock. Here is the AS for my clock.
Code: mytime = new Date(); s = mytime.getUTCSeconds(); m = mytime.getUTCMinutes(); h = mytime.getUTCHours(); [Code] .....
Is there something else simple I'm missing that will keep my clock working but not mess up my picture array?
