Is it possible in Flash to set a hyperlink (in a textField), and then have that link run a function within Flash (not Javascript)?I know one can easily launch a URL via a text link, or even run a Javascript function, but what about a function in Flash?

I have an AS3 flash movie and each page is a new frame. On my pages are dynamic scrollable text boxes that I created with the text tool. I would like to be able to make a piece of text a link (ex. click here for prices) so that it will direct the view to another page (label). I cannot figure out how to do so.
View 2 RepliesI have a problem: I'm trying to have a dynamic text box (htmlText) with a number of links (all dynamically generated themselves) within. I need some way that the html link can detect the user mousing over/off of it and fire off a function (to bring up a tooltip elsewhere on the interface, specifically). Is this at all possible in ActionScript 1.0?

Program: Adobe Clash CS5.1Explanation:When you select a text field, under Options in the Properties there is the field "Link". Normally when you want to add a link you put the URL in a text box, then assign it a URL in the Properties...I am using a .xml file to pull up information, is there a code I can put in to the "Link" field in Properties to link to the URL that is entered by the .xml file?Example:The dynamic text field in flash displays the URL entered in the .xml, which is the URL for the Google homepage. The user clicks the link and it takes them to Google.

I am trying to create a hyperlink to an external website within a dynamic text field. Basically, I need it to work like this: My text will read, "Here is an example. Click here to see a larger version." I need the "click here" part to be a hyperlink. But since I already have all of this text within a dynamic text field, I can't figure out how to make that one part of the text a hyperlink. I've searched online for an answer to this but can only find information on how to create a hyperlink from the entire text field or to add a button hyperlink. I don't want to do these things.
View 4 RepliesI am trying to link to link several buttons to a dynamic text box.I am trying to populate the dynamic text box with specific data called from an external text file by each button.
In other words:
Button 1 ---> text file1----->Dynamic Text Box
Button 2 ---> text file2----->Dynamic Text Box
I have searched everywhere, but cannot seem to find anything specific.
Does anyone know of any tutorials I could try?
I think this is a relatively easy fix but I have looked around for the answer and have not been able to find it. I am using a dynamic scrollable html text box. I would like to add links. The only problem is that the double forward slashes (//) in http:[url]....makes the following text become a commment.I have a dynamic text box with an instance name of myText and in my AS layer I have:
Code:
myText.htmlText ="the text for this scrollable text box,
which is html formatted";
If I try to add a html link, obviously it doesn't work.The only workaround that I know of uses exteral .txt files.I would prefer to use those since I have not been able to get my scrolling bar with tweening to load properly with external .txt files.

View 1 Repliesi'm attempting to resolve a problem with targeting. i would like to target multiple iframes from a link that has been pulled into a flash document. basically, the link needs to load a title and an mov file. the mov file has to be loaded into an iframe, but the title could be loaded into another dynamic text field.. i'm using a text file that is loaded into a dynamic text field. the link within the text file currently looks like this:
<a href="video/AlzyGramp.mov" target="videowindow" onClick="parent.titles.location.href = 'alzy.html'; return true;">Alzy Gramps</a>
but it doesn't work. is there a problem with flash htmltext reading javascript? i even installed the flashjavascript gateway.
I am wondering how to "link" any sort of text file (.txt or .doc) to a dynamic text box where once the swf file is played the text shows up. In all of the examples I have seen on here you have had to hit a button to load the info once the swf is loaded.

View 1 RepliesI've always wanted to figure this one out. If I have a dynamic text field with HTML text or even without, can I create a link that executes a function within Flash? I know I can create a link to itself with a variable and pass that variable through javascript and have it run, but that requires refreshing the browser. Is there a more seamless way to do it?
View 4 RepliesIn a mc is a dynamic textfield, trough as this textfield gets his content. The textfield works fine and also the html text displays/works as supposed. No problem at all. But now I put a rollOver/Out on this mc with the textfield, the text shows up allright, but the html doesnt work anymore (I mean the hyperlinks, the rest is okay)
Code:
textmc.textarea.html = true;
textmc.textarea.htmlText = "<a href='[URL]'>link here</a>"
textmc.onRollOver = function() {
trace("hover on textfield");
};
textmc.onRollOut = function() {
trace("going off textfield");
};
So the problem is the rollOn/Out, if I comment out those functions everything is okay...

var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("slicedCubeGallery.swf");
cubeGallery_mc.load(request);
addChild(cubeGallery_mc);

However, if i try to output the results in a dynamic text field, it doesn't work? It only works with the trace method?
