Im new at building flash sites, im trying to make the "splashscreen12.fla" link to the "moreinfo12.fla" inside the same window when you click the first button, for some reason it keeps opening in a new window if i use _blank _parent _self _top nothing works..
View 7 Repliesmy problem is that I have made a scrolling text. Now I want one word inside the scrolling text to be a link to another page.
I tried this with an invisible button on a second layer above the word, but the button does not stay on its place on different screens. Is there a solution. Looks to me as a basic thing every web designer ought to know.
I work with 3d animation. Im have a problem with a personal website Im doing, I have a link in a button inside a flash movie to open a new window and play a youtube movie:
on (release) {
var jscommand:String = "window.open('http://www.youtube.com/v/b0L4XLODhAA&hl=en&fs=1&','win','height=344,width=4 25,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes');"; getURL("javascript:" + jscommand + " void(0);");
}
This works fine in Firefox but in IE it doesnt work, I then change the /v/ in the youtube link with /p.swf?video_id= and now I have the window open showing the small youtube thumbnail of my video but once a click play, nothing happens, I check it and is not loading anything.
link opens up a new window rather that the same window?
PHP Code:
//listen for mouse click on" button"
button,addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, navigatetoURL);
[code].....
What am I doing wrong? My link opens in a new window rather in the same window.[code]
View 2 RepliesI am totally clueless at Action Script. I have no idea how to implement it!
I have created a basic flash ad and I need to insert an action script so when a user clicks on the ad, it opens a new window to an external link.
What on earth do I need to do? I'm not having any luck with tutorials, I cant find a command sequence anywhere.
Do I need to make a Symbol or something?

I have a datagrid with different types of columns, like I have checkboxes, combo boxes and text Inputs as the column types. Now I want one of the column type to a link, with the label "view". All the rows in that column are link with the same label "View" and on clicking it, I want a Pop up window to be opened?
This is my code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:VBox xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" width="100%" height="100%">
<mx:Script>

I didn't know how to bring a link in the datagrid. So used the Text control to display the "View" label. Now If I click this item, "View" in the datagrid, I want the Pop up function, i.e.,defectCommentsPopUp() to be called.
ACTUALLY i just thought of another one so now i have two. sorry. hope you don't mind. i get sidetracked rather easily. before i start, a quick nota bene. i'm a complete newcomer to flash so my questions are very simpleminded. not much of a challenge i'm afraid.
1. can i put a link in my movie that will close the window?
2. can i put a link in my movie that will open a new window of a specific size, and without the menu-buttons of explorer?
i have a flash site that links to PDF's with the navigateToURL function which works etc But now i would like Link to rather open up a download window instead of just a new browser window?
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to get the link to open in the same window instead of a new window, it's currently set to _blank. I tried _top, _self, _parent. When it's set to anything other than _blank the link doesn't work.

View 3 Repliesfor flash 8 I have created a nice flash site to show some portfolio work. I have all the thumbnails in place but I wanted them to open a new HTML window in the size of the portfolio piece. How is this done and will it be blocked by popup blockers. edit: the html page i want to link to is in the same folder as the flash site.
View 1 RepliesCurrently I have the code for a button within the swf on our webpage:
Actionscript Code:
on(release){ getURL('javascript:window.close()'); getURL("MyUrl.com","_blank");}
close the web browser (including the swf document) and to open another webpage in a new browser. I have looked around and nothing seems to work with Firefox (because of java security). While I know a user could disable this java security, it is obviously not practical to ask every one who visits the site to so and was curious if there is a way to do this same operation with Firefox?
I have this textfield in wich i load some vars when a button is clicked. How can i make a sort of button of the loaded vars? So if i click on the first title; i go to the right txt-file!?

I've been trying to figure out a way to assign a link ID to a loaded image so that I can then attach that clip to various other nested movieclips.
If I load the image into an empty movieclip on the stage that already has a link ID in the library and then try to attach that movieclip to another one using its link ID, it will attach the empty clip from the library and not the one on the stage with my loaded image in it.
This problem has come up from wanting to preload images (using a loading array) but then wanting to attach these images to dynamically generated clips later on, that are nested deep within my movie.
I know that i could load in swfs (with link IDs) instead of jpegs, but I need updates to the site to simply require images added to a folder, rather than a whole lot of swfs with Link IDs created.
I am literally at the end of my wick with this one! Here's the skinny, so to speak:
home.swf
products.swf
button line mc

View 2 Repliesdetailed as possible. Took basic Flash classes, but no AS other than searching online, taking a couple Kirupa tutorials, so it's all greek tho recognizably so. I have 10 individual "scenes" currently in one swf file, but would love to break these apart individually, and load each into a "container" swf with a "random" code (so each visit to my site starts differently) which I've located and tested with Kirupa's super "Loading random movies" tutorial. Question is: currently I have active buttons in each scene which advance playhead to the next scene. How can I code these to load another swf into the main "container" file and kill/replace the current swf?
Another tutorial "Transitions between external swfs" suggests "if your buttons are not located on the main timeline, you will have to change the path to the container movieclip" - but doesn't show exactly how to do this, and I have to say I can't figure the "path" out! Another issue I foresee is that I'll need the script to automatically pull in the next swf file when the current one finishes, if the visitor doesn't click the button first... Haven't been able to find this with a few hours searching, though some threads come close.

Pretty simple- just trying to have a link in my .swf open in a new window, with a specified size.
I have done this before but can't seem to remember/find a tutorial... well besides one on kirupa that didn't seem to work for me.
I believe the method I used before involved putting some code on the page you were linking to...
