Does anyone know how to create a hyperlink on an swf file? i think it can be done using actionscript during the creation of the fla, but i want to see if it can be hyperlinked AFTER creation, just using the website code.
I am trying to create a hyperlink in my text field that when clicked will take you a website target a _blank page.I have created a text field and input the website through xml - src, I put the text field inside a movieclip - link, i created a sprite and put that in the movieclip. However anytime that I try to click it, no matter the configuration I get one of two errors: Error #1069: Property loader not found on flash.text.TextField and there is no default value.^^Is the most common The other one is I believe Error #1010 Can not target and object of null reference?? Something along those lines.
My Code:
var link:MovieClip = new MovieClip(); var anchor:Sprite = new Sprite(); anchor.graphics.drawRect(265, 235, 690, 20); anchor.graphics.beginFill(0x00ff00);
I'm very very VERY new to XML, and maybe a couple months heavily into Flash. Not the greatest Actionscripter by any means. Most of my work comes from tutorials, and working on top of them. I recently did a tutorial for a photo gallery, that included an xml file. The actionscript and xml file was provided by the tutorial. I read the explanations of both the AS and XML, but I have a small problem for now.
I'm trying to create a hyperlink within the gallery. I assume that I have to add the appropriate "tag" to the line in the XML document, but as you all know, and I recently found out, tags don't work the same in XML as they do in HTML. So my question is, how do I create my tag in the XML document to make a word a hyperlink? (if it's even possible)
I have created a button, and once you hit the button (within the HTML page), I want it to open another HTML page in the same frame, both HTML pages are stored in my hard drive offline. It required coding in the code snippet panel which I do not know.
Because I have altered the images in a slideshow using flash derived from a website and its working properly but I can't remove the hyperlink from that swf file. I'm not good at flash action script. The php code to embed in the page is: <?php
I want to do is add a simple hyperlink in my xmlhtml hyperlink in my xml.how to do a hyperlink in xml.This is what I do know,you can add the <a href="http:[url]...but that does not work for me,when i save and preview my fla, it takes away my scroll bar that i have.I have also seen somwhere you can use the <?[[DATA tag, but this aswell doesnt work for me in my FLA, is there somewhere i need to reference hyperlinks before I can modify my xml?
I have been given an .swf file that needs to be added to an HTML page - no problem. That file then needs to link to another site. Is this something that needs to be added to the file before it is loaded onto a website?
I've seen the following code provided in other threads, but either it is meant to be used when creating the file, or I'm not using it correctly when I try adding it to my .asp page.
on (release) { getURL ("<URL here>", "_blank"); }
If I'm not trying to do something impossible, edit the code below to make this file link:
I have designed a image slide show with dissolving effect and all images comes externally through xml file.go through my codes. every thing is going aright. Now I need to hyper link individual image with individual links.here is my xml file details...
I've got a problem displaying a hyperlink pulled in from an xml file. This is my AS: Code: var xmlData:XML; var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest("app1_text.xml")); xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, xmlProcess); function xmlProcess(e:Event):void { [Code] ..... All the other text displays fine, but the hyperlink text doesn't display at all - and I'm not getting any errors.
I have a swf (members.swf) that loads a list of members using an xml. In the information text for each member I would like to put a hyperlink that would load another swf (image_gallery.swf) that also uses an xml file. Ideally, I would like to create an xml for each member (member1.xml, member2.xml, member3.xml etc..) holding their image gallery information BUT I would like to use the same swf (image_gallery.swf) to load each member's image gallery according to their xml file data.
So basically I would like link to a swf file and specify the xml to be loaded for that swf in the hyperlink.
I want to hyperlink to a zip file using a button in flash. Is there anyway i can do this? the GetURL bit doesnt work. (at least not in mozilla). The final file will be a projector so it has to work from there. When a person clicks on a image, it links to a high-rez tiff in a zip file.
I have attempted to have a hyperlink text using actionscript:
[Code]...
when I run the code it always creates a new window to open up the file in. I have even attempted to switch out _self with _top, _parent, and _blank, always with the same result. I simply want the file to open up in the same window.
I'm pulling data from an XML file into dynamic text fields in Flash. I have a field where I want to pull in a different url for each node, but display the same text and I'm not sure how to set that up.
Having got into flash about a year ago, I have a fairly good understanding of as3, but I have never had any reason to learn as2. For an upcoming project, we were looking to use Scaleform GFx, with the UDK. (Unreal Development Kit) Trouble is, Scaleform only supports as2. From what I've been told, as3 is supposed to be better in just about every way, so I really don't want to learn a language that?s most likely on the way out, if I have any other options.
Is there any converters out there, that can convert script from as3 to as2? Or another workaround possibility, since flash communicates with the UDK by means of just calling a function, could I create an as2 file that could dynamically load an as3 file?
I asked this earlier but maybe I didn't give enough information. I am working on a website where video quality is very important and the client is delivering me the video already compressed. I then want to import it to flash CS3 and export it as .flv for progressive download with the media playback component. I have done all of this successfully in a sense that it all works but the video quality is not good enough, it's good but the client says it;s a bit grainy. I used the highest setting in Flash, on2 vp6 at 700kbs.
My question is what is the best file format (.mov etc) and what settings should the client use, so I can create the highest quality .flv export from their .mov file? Second question, I used an 8 second buffer but now the client is saying they don't want it to buffer at all. What are the other options besides progressive download, I have never delved into this before?
For some reason I am unable to create a FLV file from a MP4 file with high bitrate. I even created a custom setting and specified bitrate as 2500 but the output file is always around 775.
I'm in flash cs3 project. I need to create a pdf file from an image path included into an xml file or if easy also in a written path as the code below:[code]
Is it possible to just create a .AS file and define constants inside of that file? Without making a new class, just so that all my classes can access these constants? This is of course possible in PHP, but are the scopes handled differently in AS3?
I am trying to create a swf file from my original file. I have published swf files before from this file but all of a sudden I get a error. It says "Be sure the destination file is not locked or on a locked drive. Also, check that the file name is not too long. I checked the files and neither the destination file nor the drive locked. The file is named index and always has been named that. What am I doing wrong?
The carousel itself is OK, everything works, including the click the icon to read the description.The only problem is that I need to have a hyperlink in one of the descriptions. I know how to hyperlink in HTML, and tried that in XML, but it didn't work. I also tried XSL or something to link but that just screwed up the SWF file itself. Here is my XML code.[code]....
I am using a Carousel i found online , everything is working fine and it also uses am XML file which contains the icons and the tooltip . If somebody could explain how i would add a hyperlink into the XML file , so each icon points to its desired location , my XML is as follows :
