I want to make some buttons and use the buttons.fla library. The button is inserted and given an instance name. A second button is inserted (same kind) and given a new instance name. But when I am trying to change the label text in one of my buttons the text is changing on the other button as well. I believed they where separate instances?

I have a created one complex button that I intend to use more than one. When I copy-paste the buttons in CS3 and try to change the text of just one, the text of every buttons is changed.I right-click on the button and select "duplication symbol" to change the features of the button independantly of the others. However the text never gets duplicated and all of my buttons show hte same text.

I'm using a Loadvars to change a text field with buttons, and would like a transition between the text field changes. I have an MC for the transition that moves a block to cover the text at label "up" and one to come down, revealing the new text at label "down". so i did
Code:
btn_mc.onRelease = function(){
transition.gotoAndPlay("up");
field_txt.text=text.text1;
transition.gotoandPlay("down");
}
but the problem is that all those actions happen at once, the text changes before it is covered and the transition MC spazzes out because it doesn't know which to goto first. Is there I can set this function up to be more ordered, so it plays "up" and THEN loads the text, and THEN goes down.

I have a dynamic txt frame in my main swf. When buttons are selected, text from an external txt file loads into the text frame. This all works fine. What I would like to do is be able to load an external swf into an empty MC and then be able to dictate what the buttons on the external swf do (such as load text). The last line of the below AS is my attempt to path to a button that is on an external swf

I have a content area with dynamic text (title and detail) that changes depending what button a user is rolling over, and i want this text to load from an external file. I have 26 buttons total, so i need 26 different titles and 26 different details to load.
I have looked around and the only solution with the loadvars technique involves creating 26 separate .txt files and loading them all in, then calling them as needed. This seems like a big waste of CPU cycles and time creating each file.
Is there an easier way to go about tackling this? Ideal would be having all the text in 1 file, and calling each identified title and detail as needed.

I want to make a dynamic textarea with loaded text from an external textfile, and then I want custom made arrow buttons to start scrolling the loaded text on mouseover (not click) andt stop scrolling on mouseout. Ala like in this webpage[url]...
The part with the loaded text is fine, but I can't manage to script the arrow buttons to do what I've just described. Even though I have searched the Internet for recipes I just find how to scroll loaded text on click or with a scrollbar

My question is that how can i load the font swf dynamically from server and add them to the library and how can i use that swf to change the font of dynamic text field.

var fontList:Array = Font.enumerateFonts();
for( var i:int=0; i<fontList.length; i++ )
{
trace( "font: " + fontList[ i ].fontName );
}
But How to use dynamically loaded Font swf as a font type.

I've managed to piece together a flash website with my limited as3 knowledge. The text is loaded from external text files and styled with an external css file.
It's working perfectly in Firefox and Explorer but it only works SOME of the time in Safari (on my mac).It's hit and miss. Sometimes it styles the text sometimes it doesn't.

I spent almost a week trying to figure out how to unload a currently loaded swf using its button and loading a new swf... I have three files, a main.fla, file1.fla and file2.fla.

If i will click the "unload" button in the file1.swf, I would like the main.fla to unload the file1.swf and load the other file, file2.swf. Here is the code to load the file1.swf:

I'm creating a menu system, the text buttons should, on rollover, move all buttons to the left (of the button currently rolled over) 100 pixels, in the gap created a sub menu running vertically will appear which will break into a 2nd horizontal submenu etc. I'm still in the early stages, and have hit a stumbling block, I placed a trace (this); cmd in root of the roll over function then again in each segement of the IF/ELSE loop inside that fuction. The trace CMD in the root of the rollover gives me the feed back _level0.btn1 or 2 or what ever button I have rolled over but the ones inside the IF/ELSE loop all say _level0.btn0 regardless of the button I roll over!

On the bottom layer of the scene, I have the background art and logos.On a second layer, I want to put graphics associated with the button selection of the user.On a third layer I will have the buttons. I want to be able to switch the buttons to another language when a user clicks on a flag at the bottom of the art board, but no matter what language is showing, I want the buttons to call up the related material on the second layer. For instance, I will have one "Install Software" button that will switch to "Software Installieren" when clicking on the German flag and "Installation du logiciel" when French is selected.

I am wondering if there is an easy way to allow the user to change the background image on the stage by clicking a button. I have several different background images (they are just different colors, each on its own layer) and I want to have small buttons of each color that can be clicked to change the background to that color.

How can I make a button that, when pressed, changes a textfield (with a scrollbar) to a different textfield (with a scrollbar) in the same place? Essentially (I think), using a button to swap an element and make it fade in or out.

I have been using Flash for years by the skin of my teeth. I like the asthetics so I can seem to stop using it. Anyway. I just threw this website together using a flash menu at the top and an iframe in the center to change the content. I know I could just re-do the whole site and make it work but I think that I am probably missing a really simple code fix in Flash to make Firefox load the pages in the iFrame. The website is www.greathousefarm.com and I am on a mac so I did it checking Safari and it worked perfect. Than my husband checked it in Firefox and it kept opening a new window instead of loading into the frame. [code]...
Is there a simple code addition I can use to tell Firefox to target the frame?
