how to add a animated intro to my website.I have a pre loader setup already. Would I have to have another pe loader for the animation?,I would additionally like to provide a skip option for impatient viewers.
I created an intro_mc on frame 1 of my main timeline that I want to play before loading the rest of the site. I have nothing else on the first frame except intro_mc, and actionscript.Script on main timeline is: intro_mc.gotoAndPlay(1);top();The timeline inside intro_mc has this actionscript on the very last frame:gotoAndPlay(2, "Scene 1");So right now, the it just stops on the first frame. If I take out the stop(); action, it just skips over my intro_mc and loads the whole site.
The index file is .php. Now I've got this little Flash animation that we want to run first, then when it's done go to his website. When I try to add it to the top of the index page all that happens is the site loads like in normally did but with the Flash movie at the top instead of being another page. What do we need to do to have it load on it's own first?
I've got to (quickly!) add an intro to an existing flash masthead on a site that I've inherited. I don't have access to the source .fla's, so I approached the problem by putting the intro in a wrapper swf and loading the current masthead and adding it to the display list on Event.INIT. So far, so good. (Incidentally, the swfs are built for flash player 9 and use AS3.)
The problem I'm having is that although the intro plays fine and loads / displays the beginning of the masthead swf, which is a loading animation, the masthead itself never actually plays. Essentially, my question is: what would cause an actionscript 3-based swf to behave differently when it's the child of another swf as opposed to at the top level of the embedded swf?
Potentially important details: Embedding is being handled with swfobject, and no flashvars are being passed in. There are two params, which are base: "/flash/" and wmode: "opaque". All the swfs and flash data live in /flash/. The flash elements (minus the intro I built) were constructed using the Inky flash framework, with which I'm not familiar.
UPDATE: I've reconsidered my approach to the problem and gotten it working by using ExternalInterface; I'm having the intro swf call a js function when it finishes playing, which swaps out the intro swf and replaces it with the current masthead (the approach is outlined here). I'd still like to know why I was witnessing the behavior I was seeing earlier, though, so any ideas and suggestions would be welcome.
If I have an FLV that I've output as SWF with skin to have embedded into an HTML page, and now a 'skip intro' is needed - though I'd have to make note of the actual time or keyframe in which the intro completes...How is this possible? Clearly, a button would need to be added for that kind of interactivity?
I have a movie clip that I imported into flash, used a skin and have a nice little player for this website intro. I want to proceed to the sites home page upon completion of the movie. Searched but the best I could come up with was;
I'm creating my first website. I've managed to create a homepage. On the homepage is a enter site button, which once it is pressed starts thetimeline... I have an actions/labels layer which I am writing my code in. On frame number 'one' is my code below.
stop (); enter_site_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClicked) function buttonClicked (event:MouseEvent): void
I've created a preloader.swf that (when loaded) loads an external swf. I would also like to add a skip intro btn, but when I do, the preloader seems to loop over and over (blinking - I know, high tech). This is the preloader code. I have it in the first frame of the preloader.swf:

This is the preloader code. I have it in the first frame of the preloader.swf:
stop(); var myRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("flash/index.swf");var myLoader:Loader = new Loader(); myLoader.load(myRequest);
I have an Intro with two buttons for language. When you choose the language, it shoul open de spanish site or the english site.How is the script for opening the a .swf or .html?
I am building a website for a project of the university. as i am not a programmer i bought a template from flashden. i need to do some adjustements and alleready asked the author to help, but he has no time to do. i thought maybe i'll get some help over here.
I need a fullscreen video as an intro for that page. there should be a skip button and when the video has finished playing you should get to the page... the page uses a percentage preloader and i want the same preloader for the video, so that it looks like it belongs to the page.
I tried searching this but could not find. I am complete newbie to flash intro and I bought a Flash Intro template.At the end of the flash movie, i was able to auto-redirect the page to my homepage by using getURL function but what I am looking for is that:At the end of the movie there should be two buttons:"Replay Intro" and "Visit Homepage" so that visitor can click on replay to see intro again or click on visit homepage which will take him to homepage.
I want to know what action I should use for this. For example, I want to click on a button, it load up my intro movieclip, after the movieclip is done and it automatically load to my next scene.
I want to add skip intro button to open home page otherwise I want the intro jump to home page when finish.so i add button on intro (skip intro) and write the following:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("homee",1); by the way i cant understand what this number meanhomee.loadMovie("home.swf");but what happened is that the intro still looping in home page
I'm a beginner level student. My project is to create a Splash Intro and a 4 page Website (Home page and 4 internal pages). I have to use Flash (no HTML, Java, CSS, etc). We are using Flash CS3 with Action Script 3. The Splash Intro should play continuously. This part I have working like a charm. However, the project requires a Skip Intro button. I have made the Skip intro button and gave the "instance" a name. The next part is where I'm stuck. I want to be able to click on the Skip Intro button and go to the first page of my "Website." I have all of my pages on one timeline. No movie clips. This is very basic.
My Home page has some animation on it. My name comes in from the left and three buttons come in from the right. When the user clicks on the Skip Intro button, I want it to go to the Home page, play the brief animation and STOP. I don't want the Skip Intro button to just go to frame 40 (for example) and just stop. And, if it goes to frame (50) for example and stops the user will miss the animation (right?). Here is what I have but it doesn't work:
I have an external SWF file and when I click on a "skip intro" button, right now I have a StopAllSounds(); on an onclick, so it stops the sound of the external swf, is there a way to fade out the sound instead on an onclick of an embeded sound on an external swf?
When my focus is inside the input text field, pressing CTRL+ENTER works but ENTER does not.Pressing Enter when my focus is anywhere BUT the input text field works just fine..My intention is to detect if ENTER key was pressed after the user fills out the field, but it seems to only work for CTRL+ENTER
i have managed to create a pswd protected flash animation which is working good when the pswd is given and by clicking the submit btn. What I want is, instead of clicking the btn, i want it work when i hit the enter key.
I am trying to do the simplest of things but just can't quite figure this out. I have a 6 frame website/movie. The first frame is an animation with a 'click to enter' button.with the Actionscript I would use to enable the user to click on the 'click to enter' button and then jump to Frame 2 of the website/movie.
This is something I've now tried for several weeks. I know it can be done because I see the swf files but after an all nighter and this being the third time that I've revisited this figure it's about time to ask the pro's.
How does one have calculations or conversions happen instantly as values are entered? No submit button, no enter, just as they type. So if they entered 1 in input box one then obviously nothing will happen but uppon entering data in the second I want the results text field to display the answer. So basically an eventlistener but not listening to a button but rather the input text field.
How do you detect the enter key being pressed on a button.. I want 2 text boxes 1 for user name 1 for the password and a button the user enters username presses tab - enters password - presses tab - button gets focus - presses enter on the keyboard form gets submited I can detect the enter key press but not when the button has the focus..
I have a button object, I want to be able to control with the ENTER/RETURN key on the keyboard so when ever I press the ENTER key, the button object goes into onPress stage.
