I find myself inbetween the AS2 and AS3 world with this project. I added an audio file in a project which is a narrated presentation. If I play the timeline the audio plays but when I stop the playhead the audio continues to play. To tell you the truth I could not even remember having to do this in AS2 not alone in AS3. I have the audio preferences set to specch to make the file smaller, have the frame rae up to 30 frames per second as I'm using FlashEff for text and movieclip effects.
Is there away to be able to stop the audio so i can see and hear where I am when I start dropping the text and pics in the project?
I am using a Flash AS2 template for a PayPal shopping cart on my site. As the code is now, a new shipping charge is added to the buyers total for every item added. I would like it to have only 1 shipping charge, no matter how many items are added!

import caurina.transitions.Tweener;cartItems = new Array();itemNr = -1;itemQty = 1;cartin = false;ctrl_mc.cart_mc.onRelease = showCart;attachMovie("cart","cart_mc",15000,

I have a .swf file that is not looping although I have added the parameter to do so. It plays just the once, and at the end of the video it stops instead of looping.

I hired someone else to do the scripting for an animation that I originally created. It calls an xml file which displays 3 different items in the flash. It works great... except when I open the FLA file and republish it even if I don't change a single thing, the resulting SWF file does not work. I've tried everything to no avail. The script writer is using CS3. I am using CS4 although I HAVE tried with CS3 (on different computer). Both the script writer and myself work on Macs. The script writer even sent screen shots of the publish windows, and I'm selecting all the exact same options. (version 9, AS2). Has anyone else run into this type of problem? I'm at witt's end. I really need to be able to make changes to this file and republish it. I can post the FLA file if someone wishes to take a look.
View 18 RepliesI'm using flash and php to write or overwrite a text file (an xml file). I have text strings that contain the xml data, which then get parsed by the php file.
It works fine. However, I notice that the header in the XML file <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?> get's replaced with <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
Why would slashes get added?

I've been searching around and can't find the solution to my problem. (firstly AS3.0 still confuses the hell out of me, having some real trouble getting my head around it).I've added a custom mouse cursor on my file, but with AS3.0 it already uses Mouse.Hide(); to hide the original mouse cursor and replace it with a symbol/mc.But i was already using both Mouse.Hide(); and Mouse.Show(); to hide the mouse at specific times. (so this new cursor has messed all that up).

View 5 RepliesOk, this should be easy, I've done it before, but the code was in a different setup/format.
All I'm trying to do is have a text box display a link and then click on the link to go to the site.
Now, everything is working as far as display, but when I try to pass the targeted (clicked) link to navigateToURL, it is null.
Here is the partial loader code:
Code:
//format video description txt
var vidDescFont:Font = new VidDescFont();
var vdf:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
vdf.font = vidDescFont.fontName;
