I have a swf with a combo box in it (not created dynamicall). All is when I publish and run the swf by doing ctrl+enter.
When I publish and double click the swf to test all is well
However when I upload the combox box doesn't allow me to click and get the drop downs to appear. A green glow appears around the component when I click on it - so I think its getting focus
I have tried using form.howFind_cmb.enabled=true (which I know is pointing correctly)
What do I need to do to get the combo box to work?

I have been working on building a XML menu and I have been able to create the top level menu but I am not sure how to add the sub menu items in a drop down. I have a link to a zip file containing my XML and FLA file. I am using CS4.The top level menu items consist of the following and the sub menu options are listed. In this list, Items 1,2 and 3 are top level menu buttons and item 4 is a sub menu button that would drop down from item 3.
I created a flash movie and installed in a site only to realize the flash movie is appearing on top of my menu drop-downs. I tried setting the move window mode to opague and transparent, neither had any effect.
I need help coding this menu system and cant find any tutorials or templates on multi level (4) drop downs. I dont know weather to make everything a movie clip and load the mc's or to place buttons inside a movie clip. Everthing will be onrollover.
why the text is not appearing in my drop-down menu. When I click on the menu just the backgrounds appear for each selection, but no text on them.
var menuButtons:Array = ["Skin Tone"]; var subMenu1:Array = ["White", "Brown", "Tan", "Olive"]; var chosenMenu:Array = new Array(); var subMenuOpened:Boolean = false;
I'm currently making a flash form and it consists of several combo boxes.I placed a combo box on stage and specified the drop down values at the component inspector (for both its data and label). When I test the movie within flash, it works perfectly! however when i load the .swf into the browser, the combo box doesn't work.
I'm looking for an example of having the selection that a user makes for one combo box determine the options the user sees in a 2nd combo box.For example, if combo box 1 is State and combo box 2 is County, then if the user selects Wisconsin for State, combo box 2 will display only the counties that are in Wisconsin.Assume that the values for State and County are coming in from an xml data file.
I have a dropdown combo box that contains numbers 1 to 10. Normally it will show '1' when the application starts, but how do I set it in AS3 to show '3' instead?
I have a combo box in my application. I also have a variable called "Status". I want the combo box to be enabled only when the value of the Status variable is 5 or 6. Otherwise, I should not be able to change the value in the combo box. It should have the previous value only.. I had written a click event to disable the combo box. But even though the combo box is disabled, I get the drop down list of the combo box, and If I select some othe value in the drop down,it changes..Only after that it gets disabled.
The problem I'm having is trying to figure out a way so that the "data2" will fill the text field "hint_txt" on ROLL_OVER of that items name in the list.I've tried to placing an event listener into the function that populates the combo box .this populates the combo box label and data with the Loaded XML File. This works
function changeHandler(ev:Event):void { menuText_mc.heading1_txt.text = ev.currentTarget.selectedItem.label;[code]......
I have two combo boxes. The first combo box's data is added through an XMLConnector object, the second combo box, I would like to populate through an on (change) event in the first combo box. The items in the second combo box would relate to the selection made in the first combo box.
I have attempted the following within the Actions for the first combo box:
on(change) { switch(this.value) { case "value1": comboBox2.addItem({Label:"Label",Data:"Data"}); break; } // end switch } // end event
which is not working.
should an event be dispatched by comboBox1 and a listener be attached to comboBox2? I can't find any examples of this on the internet.. but i might be using the wrong search terms.
var myTargetName:String = "target" + event.target.name; var myTarget:DisplayObject = getChildByName(myTargetName); if (event.target.dropTarget != null && event.target.dropTarget.parent == myTarget){ navigateToURL(new URLRequest(http:// websiteAdress.com));
I am trying to navigate to a new url for each movie clip, problem is im really unsure of how to achieve this I have one target on my page and would like to be able to drop any of these movie clipt o to it?
I'm trying to make a simulation where a person can drag 2 different objects to any 4 predefined targets on the stage. Based on the position of the 2 objects there will be a different output text. I hope I described that clearly. I would also like the 2 objects to snap to the 4 targets. Im very new to AS. Im starting to be able to read it a bit but still can not wright it.
When i insert the flash menu it basically dosent fit into the alloted space i gave for my horizontal navigation bar, when inserted it blows apart. the only thing i could think of was resizing the flash document but then i cant see the menu expand it gets cut off,
I have for a physics type site and I need to find a way of doing the following two things:
1. I know that I have come across drag n drop tutorials before but I can't find them.I basicly want to take a letter or any image and drop it onto a big circle and then have it stay there!
2. Secondly is there a way of having the visitor kind of like create their own image and then have them save it to the site so that it can be displayed in a gallery without using fancy stuff like php, cgi ?
Can somebody take a look at my .fla file and tell me why exactly my menu is not dropping down at all?If you download my file go to scene 3. that is where my Navigation Bar is.URL...
I have added drag and drop to some of my custom components.The drag event is fired on mouse down.If you mouse down and move the component around then drop it repeatedly its fine.But if you mousedown and drag the component around drop it and THEN just click on the component it inits the drag but doesn't fire the drop event.Its almost like you have to move the component for it to fire the drag drop event.This is very annoying as i'm removing the component on drag init and adding it again on drop, so just clicking on it makes it disappear.
I have an expanding banner ad that when expanded appears underneathe the other embedded swf's on the page.Is this a known problem? I've tried a million ways to play with the z-index.
I'm not sure if this is a flash thing or a dreamweaver so I've put it in both for now.
I have just finished my flash website and it looks fine in Firefox and Safari but a friend sent me a snapshot of how it looks in IE and it has some weird scrollbars showing up, as well as the normal browser scrollbars...why is this?
I have a dynamic text field that I create and populate with code, and a UIScrollBar that goes along with it.works correctly, the scroll-bar appears no problem.The issue comes in when I load the SWF into another project.I have a SWF interface that loads other pages (SWF, FLV, etc) When the SWF with the scrollbar is loaded into the interface, the scrollbar does not display at all.Here is the code for the scrollbar SWF, if:
import fl.controls.UIScrollBar; var myTxt:TextField = new TextField(); myTxt.border = false;
I've got a swf file that is supposed to play back a flv within a player. When I test it locally, it works fine, but when I upoaded all of the files (swf, flv, and SteelExternalPlaySeekMute) to the server, when I call the main swf on the page, it doesn't show the controls. If I just call up the swf in a new browser, though, it works fine.
I think the problem may lie in the fact that the html file that loads the swf is not in the same filepath in the server as the swf file. Could it be that the swf is looking for the controls swf in the html's directory, rather than the directory its in? (Though, that doesn't make sense, because it appears to load the flv without an issue, and they are in the same directory)
i had a actionscript1.0 flash file.i edited that file using actionscript2.0(flash8.0) and pubilsh .swf file. that .swf file did not have page number,any label,text.it only has display images
I'm putting together a flash animation which has 1 png file replicated quite a few times. to be more precise, a snow flake. When they build up on top of each other im getting strange blotches that should not be there.I have a feeling that because of how many times the image is replicated it is struggling (Flash, not my computer), as when there were only half of the flakes it did not do it.
A client of mine have requested a flash logo on their homepage. I have designed one and added the code as I think it should look. But is is not appearing.[URL]
Would anyone have an idea why some images (being pulled into a FLA file via a UI loader) would show up in my SWF file (on my harddrive) BUT, will not show up when I upload the SWF/Images to the ftp/web??
It works perfectly fine on my local harddrive. The UI loader has the correct AS coded, and it successfully brings in the images when I look at the SWF file on my computer. However, when I upload the SWF file to the web, it will not show the images being brought in by the UI loader?
I made double sure that the images were actually uploaded to the website, and they were. I even took the WHOLE site down, and reuploaded it, again, making sure the images I am referring to are up on the web. It all looks correct to me.
I have created a Flash object which uses an xml to read the image path and few other attributes. I could successfully generate the swf and publish (html) the object.
When I view menu.html, independently in a browser it works fine. However, when I embed this, generated html (menu.html), in the home page of another website(homepage.html), it breaks. The images are not displayed.
