View 5 RepliesI need to add a hyperlink to and advanced data grid.

View 3 RepliesI want to add a hyperlink link button to my site, but it keeps buggering up the flow.Here's is the code for my site so far (minus the link code):

So there are three menu buttons, and the page flys in animations depending on the button pushed.I have another button named LINK, and I thought it would just be a matter of inserting the following code somewhere:
LINK.onRelease=function(){ getURL("http:url....); }
But no matter where I put it, it just makes my site play through all the animations one after the other regardless of whether buttons have been clicked or not, and the link won't work.Where should I put this code and is it correct? Also, once it's working, I want to copy it and make another button for creating an email.Is that just a matter of having a mailto: link instead of a hyperlink?

I want to make a flash movie which will load image and its hyperlink dynamically from external source. I know this is very common over the internet and as per some of the tutor I've done loading the image part but not able to sort out how to hyperlink that Below is the code
Code:
myData = new LoadVars()
myData.load("anastasio.txt")
myData.onLoad = function(succes)
{
[code]....
The text file "anastasio.txt" just have this line "image=photo.jpg". "holder_mc" is a blank movie clip. The image is loading properly but I dont know how to hyperlink that!! Can any one let me know how to do that dynamically.
Also, this is a very simple way of loading the image from text file but in real this will come from DB. The Admin will insert the image name and the url in DB and uploads the image to a specific folder from where the flash will load that image. I'm thinking what could be a better way from below to do the above stated task:
1) On insertion into DB, I need to create an XML file from DB fetching the image name and url and writing them to XML file. And every time the flash will load these from XML file instead of connecting to DB server.
2) No XML file. The flash will communicate with a PhP page which will fetch the records from DB and give it to flash for loading
I know both the ways for loading data into flash i.e. from XML or DB. I just wanted to know which could be the best!! In my opinion, XML file would be a better option since no DB connectivity every time on website but there will be only one record at a time which will get changed once in every month which is preventing me from creating XML file for just 1 record!!!

View 2 RepliesI need to have a hyperlink in an XML file, that would be loaded into my Flash Movie.
View 2 RepliesI created a table in flash that holds some informations in rows (something like: Date, Company, Article - per one row). All entries are made by one single XML file. My objective was to create a DOWNLOAD ARTICLE button, or at least hyperlink TEXT so one can download a file related to the information given.
I made an intelligent trick I've putted invisible buttons in every row and hyperlinked them (in Flash, not XML) with general names (01.doc, 02.doc, 03.doc...) as this table is meant to be updated.
If you don't understand what I'm talking about, enter here to see the table in function [URL]

I am working on a new rotator for an RSS feed. One of the fields I am displaying in the rotator is an article description. After the description, I would like to add a hyperlink that links to the page referenced. The link path, as well as all the data displayed, exists in the XML RSS file. I would like to append the link to the end of the article description and to display it in the form of the word "More".
Currently I am pulling in the description fine. I would now like to add the link, but I'm not sure how to append it. I don't know if I should create a button and try to put that on the end of the XML data, or is there a way to just create a text variable with a value of "More" and assign it a URL request.
the code to get my description looks like this:
PHP Code:
NewsBox.description.htmlText = xmlItem.description;
How do I append a text hyperlink onto that?
i got a problem with building a Menu for my website, i'm using CS3, Actionscript 3 and i've a lot of buttons for one page, but i don't really know how to code them, because i juz know how to code single Button example :
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goToEnter);
function goToEnter(event:MouseEvent):void{
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.exaple.com"));
}
so this is for single button, how if there are 5 buttons?
simple i got a script that open the a hyperlink in a new window, what i want is to open the hyperlink in the same window
Code:
a1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goWhere1)
function goWhere1 (evt) {
var url = "inisial.php"
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(url))
}
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:
<html>
<BODY BGCOLOR="#ffffff" TEXT="#000000" marginheight=0 marginwidth=0 topmargin=0 leftmargin=0 rightmargin=0 id=all>
