I am trying to add a script to button which will direct me to another webpage. It is working when I run the swf file. But when I include this swf file to my webpage, nothing happens when I click that button. My script on the button is:
on (release) {
getURL ("[URL]","_blank","get");
}
I'm using flash for the first time to create my graphic design portfolio and I'm having trouble keeping the file size small, and can reduce it by (hopefully) doing the following:
My resume has a lot of classic tweens with alpha channels (to create fadein/fadeout effects) and as of right now, I need to create a separate layer of fadein, fadeout for each transition. IE: My resume to portfolio page needs one 20-frame transition, my portfolio page to resume needs a 20-frame transition, my 2nd page of my portfolio page to my biography needs a 20-frame transition, etc. It's getting out of hand.
I could easily remedy this by using a lot of separate fadeins fadeouts and then coding buttons to navigate from, say, frames 120-130 (resume fadeout) then go to frame 160-170 (biography fadein), then navigate to a static page. I'm not sure if this is possible, as my buttons would have to change functions each frame.
Another possible way is that currently for each button I have different layers in order to direct the button to different frames, and have placing hem in the same spot. I'm wondering if there's any way to have buttons go to separate frames on different frames, if you get what I mean (on frame 120 it'll go to 130, on frame 150 it'll go to 160 but still be the same button". Right now each button is coded with on release gotoandplay <frame>.
Basicly, as the title says, i am stuck trying to make a button take me to a different scene.i know what code i will use (Below) but after i have converted object to symbol it doesnt let me put as onto the button.(my code)
on (release) { gotoAndPlay("Scene 2", 1);}
I know this is basic but I don't know how. So how do I direct user to use 'mailto: name@email.com' using a button?
button.onPress = function() {
...code here...
}
how can i make a flash button template that load vars from direct xml? like height/width/text/color/curve/background or transparent background also i will have more than one of these buttons on the same page, so they must take the vars directly fromt the xml.

I am having problems with my slide show play/pause buttons
When pressed, the pause button does not pause at all (the slide show automatically cycles every 5 seconds)
and the play button starts playing the slide show from the beginning instead of from the place that it was paused.
the file is attached and here is a direct link to view the problem [URL]
what happens is I have a movie that play out to a lets say frame 299 then 3 buttons will show up on the stage. now when I press button 1 it will start playing a movie starting on frame 300. How can I direct that movie to go back to frame 299 once it is finished playing so I can choose a different button?I know I can add another button at the final frame to do that but I'm not sure if I want to go that route.

View 1 RepliesI'm building a Flash video player that uses the new StageVideo API. StageVideo requires window mode (wmode) to be set to "direct". Unfortunately, setting wmode to direct prevents the express install dialog from popping up if a user has a version of Flash Player older than 10.2.How can I set my wmode to direct to get StageVideo to work but also ensure the Express Installer pops up for users with older Flash Players?
View 2 RepliesI m planing to create a full flash site. But in stead of jus an URL that lead the user to index.html, I wish to allow the URL to direct the user to goto specific page.

I want to use my own .swf button for PayPal payments with a "hidden format", but when adding the generated PayPal Website code to my html page, only a red X and the alt PayPal text is showing where the button should be. I have changed all Active X controls to Enable.Every time I contact PayPal I get a different reply. The last one was that I have to add a "static" image, but I really want to use my own button.I would rather find a way to paste the PayPal code into my buttons action script and then I only have to paste the Flash button to the html, but don't know how to manipulate that because the only code generated by PayPal is a "form" in html format. I am also adding text fields and guess that's why I don't get an generated email code from PayPal which I get if I don't add text fields.
View 21 RepliesI've created a button (symbol), and added a OVER state, which covers a bigger boundary than the UP state. However when I add the symbol/button to my stage, the roll over activates on any area covered by the over state, where I only really need it covering the UP state boundary. Any way of clipping the region covered, so mouse over is only triggered by the boundaries of the UP state.
View 1 RepliesI have an image map with coordinates and event onclicks. I am not concerned about the image map coordinates as much as i am with the onclick event which is what triggers the parent application ( which seems to only recognize the event formatted in this way:
<area shape="circle" coords="169,380,16" href="#" alt="221" onclick="top.changeView('[Shared] CENTER', '221');" />
Is there any way to do this?At least for the onclick part? I'd like to add the imagemap onclick to a button.

For some reason I can't add ActionScript actions to a timeline frame within a Button Symbol, like I normally would with MovieClip symbols or on the stage. The Actions panel shows this message:"In ActionScript 3.0, code cannot be placed directly on objects. Please select a frame..."even though I definetely have a frame selected.
EDIT: Screenshot as requested. As you can see, a frame is clearly selected...

I can load the image by pressing the green button (see attached file). However, How do I UNLOAD the same image by clicking onto the image, rather than adding another button on my main flash file. This means that as soon as the image is loaded, the user can click on the same image to unload it.
