I have a contact sheet that I was told to place into an external .swf and then to place a contain in the timeline of the website where I want the contact to show up and then to call up.
View 2 RepliesI am trying to load an external swf image gallery onto a page in my website. I am new to action script and coding itself. I have spent the last five months perfecting my website and now am at the last stretch with just a couple minor issues but it is taking the life out of me trying to figure this out. I have tried to do the empty mc but just can't seem to get the swf to load. I don't know if I'm using the right code or even putting it in the right place. I even tried to use a preloader that I down loaded but keep getting an error Security Sandbox Violation when i load my external swf.
What I am trying to do is get the swf to load on the page that slides onto the stage when I select the gallery button. The main page is set up with a stationary bar with five buttons. One is for the gallery page that loads and that's where I want the swf to load when it slides onto the stage. I am using CS5 and AS 2.Here is the link to my site.I am also having issues with my contact form. I have deleted code and added code that I have found on many different sites but nothing I have tried has workedI am not to worried about the contact form if it's not an easy fix as I can buy one for 5 bucks.I am even willing to pay a small amount through PayPal to buy you a couple rounds or something for your time.Also don't be alarmed by the screeching sound when you click on the page links. it's only for a couple pages then it goes away. Has something to do with the MP3 music I added. Trying to get that taken care of now.
I've found a million tutorials on doing this by loading a CSS file, which is fine, but I don't want to load CSS...I'd rather just modify the thing with actionscript. I've done this before with one of my files, but can't seem to find it.
View 4 Repliesthe source files work perfectly when I upload them to my server - but when I insert the form into my flash website - I am unable to receive the contact email at all. The problem must be with the flash file becuase I have not altered the php (except to send to my email)
I am using Flash CS3 (but publishing for action script2) I have double checked all my input field sare named correctly with var_names that match the php code. The form fields have been created as a moviclip named "form" and the following action script attached:

I am loading swfs into a movie clip. However, the contact button is not a loaded swf any longer. It's in the main flash page. This is what I want to do. All the buttons load the external swfs except when I click on the contact button that is in the main flash page. I need to get the other buttons to load after I click the contact flash button. Below is the code for the contact button and the one under for one of the other buttons.

[URL] Above is a link to view the project I'm working on. Once the site loads if you go to the "Contact Us" page the content doesn't load correctly. I'm using an extrnal .xml and .css files for the content. I'm also embedding the fonts dynamicly. If I test the file locally on my computer is works fine the image loads as it's supposed to and content looks correct. However when I post the files to the server (which work exactly the same way) I get the white box when you can see from the link above. I'm at a complete loss as to how to to fix this.
View 3 RepliesI'm not sure what I'm doing wrong for this simple task. I have a sheet and right now I only want to use a small portion of the sheet. I try to click on the sheet and it moves around. I lock it, and I can't select any part of it. How do I separate it?
BTW does it matter if it's a symbol or just a PNG sheet?
I would like to know how much it would cost to create sheet input in flash like in this site [URL]..what knowledge do I need to have, to create it on my own.
I haven't worked with flash yet, that's bad, but language itself is not problem for me. The methods I need to know is the problem for this. My goal is so that user can input notes with his keyboard, and after he presses button in page, I get inputed string as letters, not as notes.
I am developing a small application, where the user can change the color of a box from a radio button(a-red or b-green). as soon as he changes the color, the respective color value(0xFF0000 or 0x5CBC32) should be updated in an xml sheet which is kept in a server.
i would prefer asp because the xml file will be placed in a windows server.
xml sheet:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<colors>
<boxes>
<box1>"here only i want to udpate the color value chosen by the user"</box1>
</boxes>
</colors>
How can I view CSS style sheet on a website online? I know how to view the html source code, but how can I see the Css style sheet without knowing the name of the file? I'm asking because I'm taking classes in css and I want to learn how people make things with css. [URL]
View 1 RepliesSO I am working on animating a 20/fps sprite (an SCV from Starcraft 2). The animation is 1 second long, and thus 20 frames. I have made a sprite sheet in photoshop, and have each frame as a separate layer. I import the PSD into my library and have it convert the layers to "Flash Frames". I get each frame nicely tucked away as a layer in my library. Problem is, it gives an ugly white border (about 1 to 2 pixles thick) around my sprites, making it look like I did a terrible crop job. However, the crop job is fine (I can change the background in the PSD to black, and the cropped sprite frames look perfect! What have I done wrong or need to do?

I am trying to get bitmapdata from a loader to be able to use my tile sheet for blitting. I seem to be unable to get it to work. After some testing I noticed that none of the code after this piece is executed in the SWF, so apparently it always freezes at this point:
ActionScript Code:
tileSheet = (evt.target.content as Bitmap).bitmapData;
bmp = new Bitmap(tileSheet);
addChild(bmp);
Obviously I am doing something wrong.
I can cut sprite sheets but i wanted to knoe some tips on getting it perfect right to the charcter so there is no box around the charcater.

I am pulling a blog into flash through an XML sheet. I have a clip in the library that gets attached per blog entry. The issue I am having right now is not all the posts are the same length so I am trying to adjust the clips background to the height of the post text box, but they are all reading as the same height so they aren't properly adjusting. I even have the text boxes set to autoSize = true;
Here is my code..the resizeBlog function is where I am trying to resize it and then I want to adjust its y property accordingly.

I have a movieclip clip that plays when the movie starts, the movieclip is a visual assets that show's that the application is loading some information but it's not showing any loading progress, just playing while the assets are loaded.I created a for loop that will load the assets using a simple loader, and then when the object is loaded the application push the object to an array.Problem is that when the loading starts all the animation that i have on screen stops until the loading is finished.The whole point is that the animation will play while it's loading.

I'm making a vertical scroller with a mask. The content is inside a movieclip and the user scrolls around it.My problem is, I have lots and lots of content to put inside that movieclip, and I've reached the limit of the sheet. All inside the movieclip. How do I resize the sheet/canvas inside the movieclip so that I can put more info in it??I've googled it, but found nothing.Note: I just want to change the size of the sheet/canvas inside a movieclip and I don't want to change my document size. I'm using flash CS3, AS2.
View 3 RepliesIn Flash I am able to create a font asset and add it to the library:I want to convert this asset into some BitmapData that will contain all of the characters with the correct letter spacing/line height etc.
Is there an inbuilt way of doing this other than manually creating text fields, adding a character, using BitmapData.draw() and then adding the result to a sprite sheet?
If I need to do it manually like above, is there a way to retrieve all of the embedded characters? For example, in the above screenshot I'd expect only a-z, A-Z. Or will I need to note these manually as well?
I have a small doubt in flash cs3/cs4. can some one tell me, is ther any way to read EXCEL values from flash cs3/flash cs4. I want to read values from excel and to display from flash side.
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to generate an animation containing all the frames from a sprite sheet. Then also append them again but flipped vertically. I have an animation class to create the animation, the stuff I wrote just gets the image from the sprite sheet and sends it to this class. But "frame.scaleX = -frame.scaleX;" isn't changing anything, neither is "frame.scaleX = -1;". It's just leaving the bitmap the same..
here's my code:
Code:
for(var i:uint = 0;i < 20;i++)
{
var frame:Bitmap = getFrame(i);

I spent almost a week trying to figure out how to unload a currently loaded swf using its button and loading a new swf... I have three files, a main.fla, file1.fla and file2.fla.

If i will click the "unload" button in the file1.swf, I would like the main.fla to unload the file1.swf and load the other file, file2.swf. Here is the code to load the file1.swf:

I have created a main "site.swf" file that loads a "default.swf" file into a container after a preloader. On this default.swf file I have buttons that needs to load new external SWF files in its place in the container. All of the external SWFs contain buttons and navigations that will also call up other external SWFs into this container. So, I would like to know how to program each button (some are movieclips as buttons) to unload itself and load the respective SWF into the container (eg. AboutUsButton to call up aboutus.swf into the container). I do not have a main navigation on the site.swf file bacause the navigation changes on each SWF that needs to be loaded into the container.
