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 got my flash application loading all the images found in an XML file (under <file>image</file> and i want to use the url found in the same node of each image <eventurl>url</eventurl> but I can't seem to target only the image I'm clicking.
If I click an image (and say there's 20 on stage all loaded dynamically) the button will try and take you to ALL the <eventurl>(s) found in the XML document.
Code:
<pictures>
<picture>
<title>Flyer 1</title>
[Code]....
When you rollover the images they scale perfectly and it correctly only scales the SPECIFIC image you are rolling over. However when I try and do this for the click and try and make it target the corresponding images URL it tries to take you to ALL the urls.

I'm trying to make a button that when clicked on opens an email client with an empty address field but a filled subject and body, but have no idea where to begin.The idea is that I have a "Refer me to your friends!" button, so when the user clicks it, it opens an email with the subject "Sairus is awesome" and a body filled with propaganda. The address field must remain blank so they can add in the friend's address they wish to send.For the moment I'm working with the below, however obviously enough the address is being filled in. Hoever, despite the seemingly correct code, the subject and body are remaining empty. I'm using Flash 8, is the syntax different in my version?
on (release) {
getURL("mailto:sairus@awesome.com?subject=Sairus is awesome&body=The following 50 reasons explain why Sairus is awesome:");
}

I'm currently having a problem with loadVariables. Is it possible to load a variable in a text file into flash player via the IP address to the text file?
[Code]...
What I'm trying to do: I have developed Flash projects for a client Company that are run via flash exe's. These projects sit on a network server. This company is now concerned about the security of these projects. If someone should copy the files off the server they should not play. I thought of a solution that has a text file on the server with a variable that is loaded into the player at runtime. The link to this txt should be absolute, so if the folder is copied off the server and taken off site the flash player will no longer be able to find the network folder with the text file. Does this required php, asp etc? Or is there another way to load a variable into flash player from a IP addressed folder?

I work with Flash 4. I've made a button and set Get URL as Properties. In this URL field I want to link an email adres including subject en text in the body field.For example, I've filled out the URL form like this.mailto:info@adayswork.nl?subject=hello&body=How are you. I am ok.
When you click on the button, Outlook opens and everything seems te work. But who knows how I can put an ENTER between How are you. and I am ok.I think it's something in the expression editor, but when I put an Enter between those 2 lines it still doesn't work.When I hit the New Line button in the expression field it seems to work but the words New Line won't dissappear in the Outlook window.

So basically, I need to find a way to retrieve the image url that is stored in a database, and I need to do it through asp.net if possible (I want to avoid XML if I can). I'm an actionscript 3 newbie so I don't know what calls I might use to connect to the .net page, but I am able to retrieve the data through SQL to the .net page.

Edit: By value i mean a number that is in my xml file.This is probably a very simple problem, but i've been working with this problem a few days now. I really suck at Actionscript, thats probably why.Well, I want to retrieve a value from a xml file and put it into a variable outside the onLoad function. Somehow i can trace movieIds inside the onLoad function but not outside it.Here is the code:
var playlist_xml = new XML();
playlist_xml.ignoreWhite = true;
playlist_xml.onLoad = function(success) {

I have a page, written in php that recives and ID value for Album information stored in an XML file. The XML File contains a links to "Samples": I'm trying to get my flash file to "retrive" the data (the ID value) from the php page (the flash file will be embedded), and make a list of samples that can be played. A sorta of an Audioplayer. I already know how to retrive XML data, but the retrival of the ID value from the PHP is a puzzle for me...

I am downloading a flash video with Perl. Is there a way to interact with the flash video like retrieving variables from the flash video, like you can do in C#?
For instance, in C# you can put a Shockwave Flash Object on a form and then you can do GetVariable/SetVariable on that object. I don't want to/don't care if I can see the video, I just want something like the Get/SetVariable of the C# Shockwave Flash object.

I am working on a flash movie for a client and I have not used flash much before at all. I have the object/embed code here below with the following src path sos.swf?wID=5. I need that wID so when I load certain variables from a php page later on in the movie I can access that persons information (wID correspons to the primary table key).
HTML Code:
<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="[URL]" WIDTH="383" HEIGHT="180" id="myMovieName">
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="sos.swf?wID=5">
<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>
<PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#FFFFFF>
[Code] .....
I have tried several things and I am not sure just how to access the flash URL variables. To make sure I am putting the action script in the right place I have only one layer, and when I click on that, I enter the actionscript in the actionscript window for that layer. Is that the correct place to put it? I am pretty sure it is but I just want to double check. The variables.text at the bottom are my dynamic text boxes that are displaying information from the sos.php file. Nothing is showing up in my movie and I am unaware of good debugging techniques for actionscript. I have tried to trace(widgetID); but nothing shows up in my movie. I am not sure if that is because of the image I have on the screen or what.
By the way here is the part in my php script that sends the variables over. They do have data in them but nothing is being displayed in the dynamic text boxes.
PHP Code:
$vars = "&firstname=".$name."&years=".$totalYears."&months=".$totalMonths."&days=".$totalDays."&minutes=".$totalMinutes."&meals=".$var_meals."&meetings=".$var_meetings."&movies=".$var_movies;echo $vars;

I've recently encountered a problem whilst coding when trying to upload local files to flash. With Flash Player 10 you can use the following code to load local files into flash.
[code]...
This is not available in Flash Player 9 which is causing me issues as I only have a copy of CS3. All I need to do is retrieve a local jpg from the users computer and temporarily display it in my flash application. So to clarify, uploading to the server isn't required unless this is the only way to do this with Flash Player 9?

My basic need is the ability to show a flash video only once per browser session without using Server-side technologies to track the session.
I originally tried using Shared Objects and they work well, but I could not figure out how to make them expire when the browser session ended. I could set a date variable in the Shared Objects and play the video again if the current date was more than an hour (or 30 minutes or whatever) past the previous play time, but I would rather have the shared object "expire" when the browser session ended.
Cookies could provide this functionality, but I have been having trouble retrieving Javascript based cookies in Flash (using getURL and document.cookie). If you do not set an expiration on Javascript cookies, they will expire when the browser session ends.
Here's the code I have been trying to get working for Javascript cookies in Flash:
ActionScript Code:
function GetCookie(cookieName) {
js = "javascript:function gc(){";
js += "var s = '" + cookieName + "=';";
[Code]....
The SetCookie function works, but the GetCookie function is always returning an empty sting.

I have this little piece of code to retrieve data from a local SQLite database (to an AIR app):
import flash.filesystem.File;
import flash.data.SQLConnection;
import flash.data.SQLStatement;
[Code]....
It is only a "proof of concept" piece of code and it "lives" in the first frame of the timeline of the Flash IDE. What happens? When I compile my SWF (AIR for iPhone), I get this error:
SQLError: 'Error #3115: SQL Error.', details:'no such table: 'background'', operation:'execute', detailID:'2013'
I created a basic db with a Firefox extension (SQLiteManager). What can cause this error? The table exists!

I have been trying to experiment with Flash's support for multilanguage documents. However, whatever locale I set in Regional and Language Options on Windows XP the swf file always assumes an "en" locale. I simplified the document down to:import flash.system.Capabilities;trace(flash.system.Capabilities.language);And this also always gives "en".I read somewhere (not in Adobe's documentation!) that Capabilities.language gives the language of the Flash player. Is this correct? If so, is there anyway of retrieving the locale that is set in Regional and Language Options?
