When I was using Flash CS4, it published a HTML file that showed the text content of the movie, which made it easy for search engines to index the site. However, in Flash CS5.5, I notice it doesn't appear to do that anymore.
What do I do (step-by-step) to make my movie content visible to search engines?
Is there a way to increase traffic for flash web site. Is there an action script to make your flash website "visible" for others. I heard that if I build a flash web site it will be difficult to get customers due to the fact that flash pages usually don't show up in the data bases. Is it right?
so anyhow is there a way to increase traffic or make my flash site "visible' in search engines. do you think building a splash page in html and then redirect them to flash is a good idea?
I made a site for a client which gets all its content from XML file. Now, when googling for keywords, client finds XML file, not the SWF file and, obviously, not containing it HTML file

View 9 RepliesLet's say I have a plain HTML website. More than 80% of my visitors are usually from search engines like Google, Yahoo, etc. What I want to do is to make my whole website in Flash.However, search engines can't read information from Flash or JavaScript. That means my web page would lose more than half of the visitors.So how do I show show HTML pages instead of Flash to the search engines?
Note: you could reach a specific page/category/etc in Flash by using PHP GET function, for example: you can surf trough all the web pages from the homepage and link to a specific web page by typing page?id=1234.
I want to make a little thing pop up when I put press a button... Would the best way to do this by doing a - movieclipname._visible = true/false
View 3 RepliesI want to build search functionality into my AS3 app, whereby I would give some MovieClips their own relevant 'tags' and check whether any of the tags match the search items the user has put in - the objects would then be sorted depending on how much they match the search. I am thinking to put the tags for each object in an array and then go through them and look for matches, it is possible there would be multiple matches for each search request and I will need to split the search string on each 'space' (spacebar) to allow for multiple search terms. Also, I want to run the search every half second or so and so the search term could match the first few letters of a tag and this should return a positive match.
View 3 RepliesRecently I found an interesting issue for me. There is one simple file that reads the content of xml file and shows it. Everything is working fine in the browser and on the server. But some people told me that they can not see the flash text content. Instead of it they see some strange symbols. What might be the problem? I think that I have to embed the font of the text fields. I should also mention that the text content is not in English, it is in different language. What should be the format of the xml file?

View 0 RepliesI have one button, that when clicked should display several images, one at a time. At the minute they are all just coming on together, how do i seperate the functions so they come on individually, for example like bullet points, e.g click once and image1 appears, click again and image2 appears etc... so eventually all of the images are on screen, but they don't all just appear together, if that makes sense!

It should work. It doesn't. Similarly does not work on buttons which are also too numerous to mention, so making them visible one at a time would be an untold hassle. I would love these five arrays to be bunched in a subarray but right now getting it to work, period, is job one.
Is there any way for AS3 to register when a timeline is playing?I want to make a button visible when the playhead is moving, (and invisible when it's not)
View 2 RepliesI mostly use flash for the animation, so my action script tends to be mostly functional.
I am now however having an issue, i am using a variable called language which I am setting in frame one as "dutch", "english" , "german" etc... Im then using this to set dynamic text as appropriate in each frame as necessary.(and yes i may switch this to case statements )
if (language == "dutch")
{ tcMC.peasantBubble1.peasantSpeech.text= "Bescherm je een schat?"};
My problem is however that one Movieclip does not see the language variable.
Is there anway in CS4 i can direct it to where it is, or define the varibale instead to be global (perhaps id have to change it from a string though)?
I have my main menu movieclip placed on the main stages and I use it to load some external swfs. However when I load them, the menu disappears because it is covered by the loaded swf. How can I set the depth of my top menu so that will always be visible when the external swfs are loaded? Should the depth be set on the main time line or inside the main manu movie clip? This is the code in my main menu that I am using to load the swfs but my main menu is a movie clip placed on the main timeline...
Code:
var swf:MovieClip;
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
var defaultSWF:URLRequest = new URLRequest("swfs/welcome.swf");
loader.load(defaultSWF);
stage.addChild(loader);
[Code] .....
on clicking the Search Icon , a search bar will be visible (ON) if user click anywhere on the stage the search bar will be NO visible(OFF) OR user click on ICON again the search bar will be OFF but it Stage CLICK is triggered without clicking

Will the Googlebot "click" buttons on a Flex 3 site when it indexes it?
I've got a Flex 3 site. When the user clicks one of the buttons on my site, a panel opens and text appears. As the text is not immediately visible, will Google index the content in the panel? (I'm not cloaking or anything weird. It's just the normal functioning of the site).
Are there any Flex 3 developers out there who see Keywords listed in Google Webmaster Tools for text that is visible only after clicking a button?
