Actionscript 2.0 :: Jump Forward And Jump Back Buttons?
Jun 15, 2010
I am brand new to scripting in Flash, and was hoping I could get some help on a question. I have an animation that is 300 frames long. The first 100 frames are an animated 'ad' (for lack of a better term), the second 100 frames are a different ad, and the third 100 frames are the last ad. This can be viewed straight from beginning to end (and is intended to loop if no action is taken), but I would also like to add some functionality to the animation, so that people can jump forward to the next ad, or back to the previous ad (hitting back from the first ad would take them to the third ad, and vice versa.)
[Code]...
This does not turn up any errors when I test the movie, but the functionality does not work. Am I anywhere near a working script, or am I attempting this in a completely wrong way?

When landing on a certain frame, I'm trying to make a MC jump randomly either forward or back ONE frame in the timeline. Can't get random(whatever); to cooperate.

I have been tasked with making this happen [URL] - What Ive done is take out footage and include keyframes for each frame (cue points on every frame), which i read helps with scrubbing... and it does. however using an invisible scrubber bar (seekbar) just isnt smoooth enough... So i was wondering if I could register an eventListener on the mouse and when it moved forward, jump x frames/time forward in the flv clip.

im working on an image gallery, its the one from kirupa (photogallery) the nextImage() function stops working when it has reached the last picture, but once it has reached the last picture and the user clicks 'next' i want it to start at the beginning again.
must be something like if (p == (total)) { p = 0;
Here is the current code.
function nextImage() {
if (p<(total-1)) {
p++;
if (loaded == filesize) {

I compiled two swfs into a single exe using a converter. Both swfs have the same 5 tabs for the 5 sections of my presentation. Swf A has all the stuff for the first 4 tabs, Swf B has the stuff for tab 5. When I start the exe & navigate all around in the first 4 tabs & their sub-sections, everything's fine. I can also click on tab 5 & the Swf B stuff starts playing right away & I can navigate all around in there.
BUT... After I've been clicking on the tab 5 stuff, if I click on any of the 4 tabs from Swf A it kicks me all the way back to the intro animation at the start of Swf A. What I need is to have it go to the first frame for each of those tabbed sections. (e.g. frame 5, 38, 93,...) I did gotoMovie & then gotoAndPlay & the frame number, but it sends me back to frame 1 anyway. How do I get it to go to the frame I want? This is in AS 2, by the way...

Question: I have an swf that is 1024x1600 and is embedded in an html doc. I have content on the bottom of this swf that when clicked should force the browser to jump back to the top of the html doc containing the swf. This is simple to do with anchors and links in html, but is it possible with AS3?

I have two embedded flv's in the timeline, one after the other. There are no errors in the video files. When the "playhead" in the exported swf comes to the end of the two combined videoclips, it jumps back to the first frame of the 2nd video clip for a fraction of a second, before playing from the start of the timeline as it is supposed to. I have explicitly done a "gotoandplay(1) in a separate action layer, at the last frame of the "movie", but that's not what happens.

so i have a main timeline and a nested one. the main timeline has a button named "how_btn" that plays the nested mc (named "how"). once i get into playing "how", i have a button named "menu" that i want to bring the user back to the main timeline (where the "how" button is). this is how i scripted:
how_btn.onRelease = function () {
gotoAndStop("how");
}
menu_btn.onRelease = function () {
gotoAndStop("nav");
}
the how button script works, however the menu button does not. is this b/c it's in a nested mc? i tried specifying the root, but that didn't do it either.

I have a HTML stageholder, this calls a "mainMenu.swf" which essentially controls my site. This "mainMenu.swf" has three buttons: intro, portfolio and contact which are all individual movies. So far, all good... When I have clicked into the portfolio section a 3x3 grid loads with nine buttons, one of these buttons loads a preview page for four movies, when I load one of these movies it plays fine. What is the path to get the loadMovie command to jump back to the 3x3 grid page from this movie? Basically, what is the command to jump up a directory when using loadMovie?

I am trying to use buttons to jump to frame labels. They jump to the label just fine, but they won't stop when pressed again. Below is the code I am using to have the button rest when pressed again.
getting_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gettingStarted);
function gettingStarted(evt:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndPlay("ipad_in");

Anyways I am using action script 3.0 and I created multiple layers using just one scene. I created a layer with lables on them to mark where I want my buttons to point to and go to. I have the stop (); on the first frame. And I made my buttons mostly interactive with movie symbols and tweens.My first scene I have 2 doors, the user can pick which door to go to and it takes them into a different path.I made the buttons that are clicked to go forward, and then I tried to make an invisible button on the button edge of the scene to go backwards However, the PROBLEM is when I click my button to go backwards I am stuck on the first page and can't move forward.
function gotoOne(evt:Event):void{ gotoAndStop("one")}backbutton1.addEventListener("click",gotoOne);
function gotoFour(evt:Event):void{

I'm working on a web menu, that has sub menus. I'm currently trying to get the sub menu to jump back to the main menu if the mouse is no longer inside the submenu zone.
It works if I move the mouse quickly to another part of the Flash area, but if I quickly move it out of the Flash area and onto say the html document, it doesn't update fast enough, and thus still thinks the mouse is hovering over it.
I know I can simply update the movie frame rate which does work, but I was wondering if there is any way to get Flash to check to see if the mouse IS ACTUALLY ACTIVE over it, and if not close the submenu?

I have a Flex application which uses the BrowserManager class for enabling deep linking within the application. The URLs work fine through all browsers but the back/forward buttons work only with Firefox and Internet Explorer. Even that is a bit flaky and sometimes doesn't work. The buttons don't work in Chrome/Safari or any other browser. How to make this work properly?

I've got a situation where .swfs are loaded by buttons from another .swf to a higher level.each button loads its own external movie. What I would like to know is how to load these external .swfs in succession, either forward or backwards, with forward and back buttons, as well as keeping the specific buttons in effectI guess it would be kinda like the way you search through the forums. You can either click the number that corresponds to the next page, like "2" for example, or you can click the forward button that looks like ">". Same for the back situation. So it would look something like this: "<12345>". You could either click the ">" button to move all the way to 5, or click each number separately

Lately I have been seeing flash based sites that will work with your browser back and forwards buttons. I have also noticed on some sites that if you right click on the .swf they can have links to parts on the site in that as well.

I don't want to have to load a flash site in another browser window.
But I find myself and clients quickly clicking the back button to get out of different sections in the flash movie. But when they hit back they find themselves out of the entire site.

Code:

how to enable the forward and back buttons in internet explorer for a 100% flash site? Looking for a tutorial which only uses actionscript if that's possible... found a few on google but they use javascript (in seemingly complex ways, and I dont know javaScript)... also named anchors arrent an option either because they dont truely take you "back," they only go to the prior named anchor on the timeline.. And, they only work on the root timeline.

I have SWFAddress going for the most part, but the browser's back and forward buttons aren't working properly. When I use the back and forward buttons, it successfully changes the URL but it seems the SWFAddressEvent.Change is not being fired in Flash. Everything I click within the .swf relies on this event and works great, but the browser buttons still won't.
