how to use an array to create a back button for something I've made in Flash. I wish it was as easy as making the back button go to the previous slide, but there are several branching scenarios where that scenario won't exactly work. I purchased a membership to Lynda.com in order to try and learn AS3, but the section they have on arrays in AS3 doesn't come close to teaching me what I need to know for this kind of operation.

I have made a flash site that contains a lot of buttons that loads imported swfs. Now, I want to create a simple back button by using variables.
An example: The visitor clicks on the contact button which loads the contact.swf Then, the visitor clicks on the About us button which loads the aboutus.swf. Now, the visitor wants to go back to to the contact page and hit the back button inside the About us page.
The code for loading the pages looks like this:
on (release) {
_root.section = "nameofthepage.swf";
_root.transition.gotoAndPlay("closing");
}
Now I want this to happen: When the visitor clicks on the contact button a variable is saved named "contact" and then inserts "contact" in the code of the back button. Something like this:
on (release) {
_root.section = "insert the name of the current variable name.swf";
_root.transition.gotoAndPlay("closing");
}

creating a flip-book in flash (using AS3) . I've looked at the other flip-book programs and editors out there, and none really give the customization that my company wants.I have something working, but the page scoping seems to be off. The pages will turn back and forward with a button click but they flip out of order. However, it all runs fine with no error when the user clicks on the pages themselves. This is the code from the main timeline (where I'm getting an error).

basically this code will work like a browser back button its very simple but "could end up very long" basically it will act "similiar to the browser back button"
Code:
on (release) {
if(page1 = _currentframe){
_root.gotoAndStop("quiz");
} else if (page0 = _currentframe){
[code]....
it works when the (page1 = _currentframe){ is rotated with the first if statement...because for somereason it seems to not recognise the "else if's"

I have a Flash website with 3 interfaces( 3 frames with movie clips inside). they have a button that goes to different loaded .html page(text). But once the back button is pushed on the web browser, it always goes back to the first frame instead of the actual last page, which might have been frame 2 or 3.

I'm working on making a small flash site, the client has requested that the site respond the the Back button So I googled, and found this great tutorial: See It Here: http:[url].....Bascially I want to change the current code on the numbered HTML pages (1.html - 5.html) currently this is the code inside these pages
Code:
<script language="JavaScript">
parent.flashframe.setPage(5);
</script>
....and I'd like to change the fuction within these pages to something like this
Code:
<script language="JavaScript">
parent.flashframe.gotoAndStop(15);
</script>
The only fuction I want to change is to have the code take me to a specific frame in flash. - Oh, and "gotoAndStop(15);" is not working.

I am currently working on a site where a button in the flash takes you to an external link. The user would like the browser back button, when you are on the external link, to take them to the page on the flash that was last viewed without restarting the flash. Is this possible?

I've got a flash program that is working perfectly in firefox but not in IE. It is a program that cycles through real estate from a database. In IE, it loads the data from the search only when the search is unique, but when i try to hit the next button it comes back as blank. I tried a timestamp previously which glitched the system, but here is a workaround for anyone with a similar issue:

I'm trying to make a button that when clicked will make my movie clip go to the next frame, and it works fine only when it gets to the last frame in the movie clip it just stops. How can I make it loop back to the first frame with the same button. I know I can have next/previous buttons but I'm using only one button and need it to change frames on a loop.
Code:
stop();
circleBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onNext);
function onNext(evt:MouseEvent){
circle.nextFrame();
}

I have implemented SWFAddress 2.4, it works perfectly in Chrome and Firefox on Mac. But in Safari 5.0.3 on Mac, the back button doesn't trigger the AddressChangeEvent. Deep linking works on Safari, just the back button doesn't.

I designed a website using tips from [URL]. It's a single .swf. Nothing complicated about the as3 script. Mostly gotoAndStop commands to jump around the timeline to the different sections of the site. My question is how to set up the site as individual swfs for each "page" so the back and forward buttons on an internet browser will function. I've seen samples of loading external swfs but it's not clear how to write scripts to jump around various pages for a website.
Here's the website: [URL]

I have created a set of MC's loaded from library via attachMovie in a for loop. Right now I have a set of MC's that are attached with the numbers 1-8. I would like to be able to select a MC and traces back its number. I know this can be achieved through an array. I know how to build arrays, but I do not know how to create an array what would trace back a number form a for loop.
Here is the code:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("navClip",this.getNextHighestDepth());
for (i=0; i<8; i++) {
currentThumb = navClip.attachMovie("numberBox", "clip"+i, i, {_x:(i*50)});
currentThumb.imageNum.text = i+1;
navClip._x = (Stage.width/2)-(navClip._width/2);
currentThumb.onRelease = function() {
trace(currentThumb);
};}
I need it to call back in the onRelease the number associated with that clip(array).
