I have recently launched a site for a client which includes an interactive flash element on the home page but it takes a long time to load (10-30seconds). I have followed advice from others about keeping image small and link movies rather than embed but still slow, the swf file is about 7.9mb which i thought was ok for the size of flash file. Does anyway else know where I have gone wrong whether it be the embedding or some other area.
I have a 90% all flash-site and when u click news webpage splits up in HTML blended with flash in a page called news.asp
(buttons are in flash and content in asp bellow)When loceted on news.asp and you click... let's say service you go back to index.html with the flash main.swf, but the link has ALSO have to go to label (service) or frame 30 lets say...
I have 2 websites both built entirely in flash.My problem is that I have created a button on 1 of the sites that has to link to a particular scene and frame within a different flash website.
I have a all flash site that has several FLV's that people can click on called Green Solutions, Home Control, Temperature Control. My client wants to know if its possible to put a hyperlink in a email to his clients that would directly link them to any one of those videos. I assume I need to pass a variable of some kind but I am at a lost of where to start with this thing.
Is it possible to link to a spacific "page" within a flash site much like you can do with a html web site? I want to be able to link to a spacific swf page within my site without going through the entire site to get to the "page" how do I do this using actionscript 2.0
Because on some connections this can take quite some time, I want a link to appear after a specififc amount of time, say 10 seconds? Kind of like a, "loading too slow? Click here for whatever."
how to accomplish this within this loading code and frame?
I currently have a flv running on my home page which is about 5 minutes long. I am wanting to insert 'quick links' to specific times within the flv so that people do not have to watch it all they can quickly just click the lick and the flv will jump to that point.

I am trying to program an app that searches for a project but I have two issues.1st when I click the search button the project opens up my browser.2nd I want the value to return the url, so I can parse it and use it as an xml, so I can get specific tags in the return of my search.
a bit of background info: I once made an app for finding your horoscope in flash, which retrieved an xml file(from an rss feed) on click and went to the right div tag within the file. I am not sure if this is the same way for using a regular website, but when I inspect html pages it seems like the same format. I am hoping to get only the return values of the search and not the rest of the stuff around it, and have it show up in a box to scroll through.
I was wondering how can I make my links in Flash readable for browsers? In other words, to be able to provide link to specific section of my website. For illustration, take a look at Jenson Button's website:The link above points to the "News" section, although the site is in flash.
What I need is a code that sends the user to a speacific page, everytime that button is clicked. The way I have been trying to do this (which may be wrong) is to set up each page on a different keyframe in the timeline (with stop actions on each one) - surely its now just a matter of adding an action to link each button to their page?
It's about a live support chat. When a member wants to contact me, the chat is ringing (so this swf audio file starts playing). Whenever swf audio alert starts, I get a link: "user X wants to chat, click here to respond".
After I "click here" a new pop up window (the chat) opens, but the swf audio keeps playing without ever stopping, it's like answering the phone, talking but still ringing.I tried the function doStop(); - not working. I tried attaching to the "answering link" different commands but couldn't make it.[code]...
I am able to pass a variable from an html link that loads a separate html file and instructs the swf embedded file to go to a specific frame. But - I now need a link within an swf file on one page to open a new page and tell that swf to start on a specific frame and it is not working. Here is the code I use for the first example - works like a champ:
I know this sounds confusing but it's really a simple question. You can follow my site to better understand. [URL]
If you click on "Films" a submenu appears. I want all of these submenu buttons to link to (u-stu.com/films.html) but each go to a specific frame label in the .swf located within [URL]
Trying to make it so when you click anywhere on the flash file, it loads a specific website. It works when I go to File > Preview > Flash, but if I try and preview in html it doesn't navigate anywhere. My actionscript is:
Code: myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onMouseClick); function onMouseClick(e:MouseEvent):void {
I have created a flash website which contains a link to an outside website. When I click on the link, it takes me to that outside website in the same browser window. To go back to my website, I have to use the back arrow. I want to change the link to the outside website so that the link opens in a new window. Therefore, if somebody goes to the link, when they finish they can close the new link's window and the original window with my website will still remain, without losing both upon closing. What do I need to adjust in order to do this?
I am using Flash Cs4 and I want to open a website window with a button click, but I want the window to open seperately without closing the first webpage. When the button is clicked, I want the user to see both pages open and in order to navigate back to the original, have them click the open window of the page instead of using the back button. It would be perfect if the second window would open smaller than the original webpage, sort of minimized, so that they can still see the original pages content. I can use either actionscript 3, or actionscript 2. Whichever will acomplish the task. I am having the damdest time finding the correct code to do this. I have Flash Cs4, currently set to publish as actionscript3 with Flashplayer 10. I can change that to actionscript2 and Flashplayer 8 if anyone can give me the actionscript2 code to accomplish this task. Here is the code I am currently using to navigate to the second webpage, and yes I know it is currently actionscript 3, and this an actionscript 2 forum: Either code will work for me as long as it does the job.
addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler); function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void { navigateToURL(new URLRequest("https://mycw3.eclinicalweb.com/cent/jsp/login.jsp")); }
It does open in a second window with no back button as I want, as long as I am testing the movie in Flash. When I publish it to the web on a server, you still have to use the back button to go back the original page which is not what I want.
just using getURL doesn't work if :1)the user doesn't have auto login for facebook turned o2)did not have facebook already opened on 1 of the pages of his browser. o:It will instead redirect user to login pg after which a search page with search results. The page i want user to see is actually way back on the list. How do i link a flash website to a facebook page
I have got a small question. I have made a button with a link to a website lets say [URL].. but when you press a button i get an notification from adobe player security manager that tells me this site is trying to connect to a different site and you have to configure manually. Only after doing that button works fine. Is this going to happen to everyone when they try to use my website and is there any way i could fix that?
I am trying to link some text to an external web site. I am using the following code, but whenever I try to launch the external web site, I get prompted by Adobe Flash Player Security saying that it has stopped a potentially unsafe operation. It then tells me that I need to change my security settings in order to view the website. I am wondering if there is any way around stopping the security check, or is this built into Flash?
var linkLaunch:URLRequest = new URLRequest('content/web/fuel/project/home.html'); navigateToURL(linkLaunch);
I am trying to create a button that link to a website and I cannot for the life of me get my flash to open a new window to a site. I am trying to have specific links to different sites for each slide, I'm not sure how to get it working. I get an error message of:
TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter url must be non-null. at global/flash.net::navigateToURL() at MethodInfo-119()

I have a website that I originally began to design in flash but later started developing new pages for it in html. The flash part of it has several pages on different frames and I have created links from the flash part to the other html pages, but, I can only link the html pages back to the main flash home page, and not the other pages in the flash part of the website.
