I'm having Trouble seeing files once they go online. Everything was just fine yesterday. But now whenever I export a file and upload it, it can't be viewed. They run just fine on my machine but when uploaded I get the "need newer version of Flash" message. And when I try to just load the swf it comes up blank. My older SWFs still work great, just the ones I exported today that are having problems.
View 5 RepliesI am wondering what processes involves converting files online...What programming languages are required?Basically I am wondering how are the files on scribd,issu,slideshare converted...
View 1 RepliesI was able to get it all to work well. I finished the Flash based simple quiz game I was making. I apologize if the title is vague, but I thought this best described the issue at hand for me. If not, I hope the detailed question below can be of better use. What I want to do with this flash, which I've published as a swf, html file, is to upload them online to a forum I've been working on. This forum is a free creating forum, Forumotion. Anyway I have the files all done, but need a way to host it on the forum now.
I've been searching and doing research for free hosting sites to upload my swf file to, but have not had much luck. I was just wondering if anyone knew any good, legitimate, and preferably free hosting sites, which I could create a domain space on. I am also unsure if it is possible to do such a thing with a flash/swf files that have been created in Action Script 3.
Is there a way for flash to detect what files are in a certain folder online with just a URL (ie "http://example.com/files") if the .swf file is stored on the same site?
View 1 RepliesI am loading 2 external text files into my SWF.. I believe that my action script is correct as it works pefect offline..

View 2 RepliesI have recently upgraded to FlashCS5, but i am still working in Actionscript2.
I have a simple document, and on a button click i have several different things that appear, i am wondering though if i can get them to come in one at a time, instead of all together, but still clicking on the same button.
[URL] is where the page is located but i want to copy the transitions between pages into my own flash document and i have literally no idea where to start. I have flash cs5.
View 1 RepliesI have a sample fla file, but I can't find where to edit the scripting in it. Basically there are 2 buttons, each one going to a different URL. I can't figure out where to change the URLs they go to. I've looked literally everywhere in flash.

View 1 RepliesI want to be able to do site specific searches for a online group on Black Planet but they have so many restrictions on coding my only option is to use Flash.

View 1 RepliesI've got a very basic fla file which actually worked on flash5 but it's no more working with flashmx 2004. A movie clip move from a position , let say A, to B, then to C.
I insert a stop(); action on B, so the movie stop. Inside the movie entitie I insert a button with the command play() (I have also try _level0.play() or nameofmovie.play())I expected that the movie continue playing from B to C but it does nothing..
I want to zoom in and out on an image (it's actually a thumbnale which pops up). Or if you want, to have a small image 'grow' to a larger formatI tried it with scaling + tween, but it is hardly a smooth transition.

I'm trying to manage new levels via duplicateMovieClip and levels on the timeline (static and occlude the new levels)- but what's the best way?I presume that I can use swapDepths on the existing timeline items, to put the new levels properly between them. Or is there another way?(Note since I'm stuck at the lowly F5, I don't have getNextHighestDepth to manage the combinations.

I created a project w/a dynamic html scroll box on one page/spot on timeline. I want to use the same scroll box, but have it call a different .htm file for different content at a different part of my timeline.My problem is the file naming. I tried to just copy the entire scroller project I made and append a "_2" to all the file names, so that they wouldn't interfere with my original scroller in my main project, but that didn't work out.Is there anyway to duplicate the original scroller within my project and just have it call a different file?

View 1 RepliesWe are just starting out with Flash CS4 and we are looking to have 4 pages or maybe we should stay stages.
1. Text and Buttons (buttons will take you to a bigger description of the text)
2. Similar to 1st page
3. Similar
4. Actions that the buttons will be calling for
We are thinking that with the 3 pages, the 4th page if we have that in layers, the layers and show seperate actions we request from our buttons. And then an example would be on page 1 they hit a button that would bring up a 540X400 graphic. And another button might bring up the same type but a different picture and I am figuring if they are on different layers we can do it this way.
I want to cycle through several movie clips for a training application. I plan to use an array to hold the clip names, and a variable (CurrentClip) to set visibility and allow me to use a single pause/ play button throughout. For the visibility, I've found that...
CurrentClip._visible = false; does NOT work. But... setProperty (CurrentClip, _visible, false); does work.
