Professional :: One Page Per URL?
Feb 3, 2010I thought that this was worth posting. If you're creating a Flash-based web site, it is very important to create Flash sites that support "deep linking."

View 1 RepliesI would like to create my page links so when I roll over the text(link) enlarges and then once pressed a swf animation plays.When it stops it automatically directs to the desired page.
View 5 RepliesI have a site where all the pages have a common SWF embedded at the top (Nav and banner), but the rest of the page is HTML.Everything is working fine, but I'm finding the 'independence' between the HTML and Flash is making for some sloppy transitions from page to page.I was expecting the SWF to be delayed, at least for the first page visit(and I have a preload routine inside the swf to make it's delay and appearance a bit more visually pleasant), but was surprised to sometimes find the SWF appearing and playing while the HTML content was delayed (resulting in a SWF floating in black).What I'm wondering is if there's a way I can do some sort of preload on my index page.BUT, not the standard one that I'm sure everyone would suggest (like the javascript image 'preload', or the newer 'css visibility' preload trick). The problem with the standard one is that it doesn't check to see if everything is loaded.What I'm after is a routine on my index page that invisibly loads some of the elements from my inner pages (common swf, maybe some of the images) and WAITS until it's done before moving to the inner pages (displaying the company logo and/or a load status in the meantime).Many people would suggest a preloader inside the common SWF on my inner pages (which I have), but the problem with that on its own is that it doesn't stop the HTML from displaying.
I'm trying to figure out a way to do a preloader (like those in a SWF, which loops until everything is loaded) that controls both the SWF AND the HTML.Recently, I found that you can use one swf to preload another, which would be a potential solution, as I could make an SWF on the index page whose sole purpose is to load (invisibly) the common SWF, displaying the load status and then loading an inner html page once it's done.Problem is, I have bee having trouble finding the coding for that, as most searches for preloaders end up being about standard preloaders, where it's monitoring the same SWF that the code is on, as opposed to controlling a second, external SWF.Can someone point me to or provide me with the proper coding/procedure for a preloader that controlls a second external swf or give me a better solution?
one?
I have a project for a site that sells fishing lures.I want to have an animated index page before moving on to the home page. My idea is to have a boat sitting on a pond fishing lines in the water, when a fish jumps out of the water, the water ripples, the next time you see the fish it's got a hook in it mouth and jumping out of the water.how do I go about it? How to I create the water rippling? I think with the fish I can do easily enough with it jumping on and off stage. Would I do the water with shape tweens?
View 1 RepliesI have a flash button embedded into a css/HTML page that I want to use to navigate into a new page without opening a new window. Here's the code I'm using in the SWF which I got from the adobe tv tutorial:Here is the test page that I have embedded the flash button in:The flash button is the "about Ian" button on the upper left. I want the navigation to be like the traditional rollovers on the page. (I'm working my way up to having the embedded flash button fade into place, that's why I'm using flash.)

i'm trying to build a flash site and ran into a problem... i have a gallery page with a bunch of page numbers at the top. when you click on one, a movieclip loads of some images coming in.so the problem i'm having is that i made a little animation for when you roll the mouse over the page number (they scale up when the mouse is over, scale back when the cursor moves away)... what it's doing is when you roll over, it goes to a certain frame in the timeline and plays that animation.that's all working cool, but i need it to not do that once it's clicked on. so basically when you actually click on a page number, the over script should stop until you go to another page... here's the code i've written,
function over(event:MouseEvent):void {
this.gotoAndPlay(30);}
function out(event:MouseEvent):void {[code].....

View 1 RepliesI would like to run the same Flash Pro CS5 created swf twice on a long web page, at the top and bottom, but if possible, to only download it once for each visit. This is easy with static images of course, but can it be done with Flash? I'm thinking likely not, but would love to be mistaken about that.
View 3 RepliesI have a Flash Movie that when you click on a image it's suppose to redirect you to a new page but it has been opening it in a new tab, heres my code:
mc.onPress = function():Void {

getURL(infostruc[current-1].artUrl, "_blank");
//button actions

I have a master page and a child page and have placed the javascript code inside the child page for flash movie.
The problem is the movie seems working when there is a alert on, without at least one alert msg, the code does not work, I am sure you people can solve, I can see that the following code works well in both Mozilla and IE, but only if the alert is ON, if I put it off, then the code does not work. Can anybody tell me what is the workaround :

Not sure if I should be posting here or on the Dreamweaver forum [there's a similar post there], but .. I hope to have some music on my site and have been playing around with various Flash based, XML driven, mp3 players [though I'm a beginner with Flash]. I've got one to look [more or less] as I want it but it doesn't work! It works when previewed within Flash CS4 but not within Dreamweaver. The mp3 [the Josephine Foster song] is there, the XML file is there - I can't think what I've done wrong. Here's the url:[URL]

I have a static html home page on my website and I would like to add a flash animation of a cartoon character riding her bike. My home page is [URL]
I have tried several ways of doing this. Firstly I started taking measurements using firefox developer toolbar and then realised that the page displays differently according to what screen size users view it.
Next I took a screenshot and imported this to the stage and used the dimensions of my wrapper div which is 1024 px. I am using the creative suite 4. After creating a separate layer for the animation and getting the character to go where i wanted her to go, I realised I couldnt use the navigation which is on the html page.
When I do Publish settings (HTML tab), I would like to set it the way that my swf would be floating in the middle of the screen.However, I always end up with my website being "stuck" on the left or right side of the screen.These are the settings I have done, which result in the site being placed on left side of the screen:
TEMPLATE: Flash Only
DIMENSIONS: Match Movie
PLAYBACK: none is checked

Imagine I have an swf file on an html page. Beneath it I have a div called "container". I would like to hit a button in the flash file and have the contents of the container div change. I've done a similar thing with frames or iframes in the past, but I'm thinking there is a way to tell flash what div I am targetting.

View 3 RepliesI really wish Flash and Photoshop would make possible a grid system like 3D apps so the center of any page would be: X:0 and Y: 0, then when placing graphics you could just type in X:0 and Y:0 and the graphic would be placed in the center of the stage.

View 7 RepliesI am working on a site, and I have an issue that I cannot resolve.
Here is the link: [URL]
If you click on the "Issues" link, you will see a slideshow comes up.
If you click on the "Campaign" link, you will a page come up with links on the side, and a bare space to the left.
In the blank space, there is supposed to be a slideshow to come up. When I test the site on my computer, it comes up perfectly fine. But, when I load it to the server, it does not show up.
The ONLY difference in these pages is that the "Campaign" page is a scrollable page, where as the "Issues" page is not. I have tried to resize the scrollable page, and move it to the right side of the page, but it makes the text unreadable- even after resizing the box, and such. I have tried to change the slideshow into a symbol. I've tried a couple of other things, but to no avail.
I have two flash movies.One has an embedded video.I sped up that movie to 36 fps to make it run quicker.It plays fine.I downloaded a FLA that is a flame effect.It has a 30 fps rate.When I incorporated the flame effect into the movie with the embedded video, it made that movie play at 12 fps.Must be something in the AS?So I decided to make two separate movies and include both on the page.But when I do that, the same thing happens.The 36 fps movie plays at 12 fps.

When I navigate away from this page, it unloads. However, when i click on "Clothes" again with the .swf, the page flip won't load. [URL] To load the pageflip (under "Clothes"), I'm using:
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader(); addChild(myLoader); var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("magazine_flip.swf"); myLoader.x = -300; myLoader.y = -165; myLoader.load(url); myLoader.unload(); To unload (for all other buttons), I have: myLoader.unload();
I'm creating a website, on the stage I've got a menu and a movieclip which I use to show my pages, the movieclip's name is pagecontainer_mc.Each page is an exported class for AS3.When I click on a button on the menu, with removeChildAt() and addChild() I remove the current page and show the requested one.Everything ok with this.The problem comes when I need to call a page not from the menu, but from a button inside another page.I've tried writing this code on the main timeline:
var contacts:contatti = new contatti;
pagecontainer_mc.contacts_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,showCo ntacts);
function showContacts(e:MouseEvent):void { pagecontainer_mc.removeChildAt(1); pagecontainer_mc.addChild(contacts); }
[code]....
If I put the code inside the page's timeline I can't access to pagecontainer_mc (or at least I'm not able to do that).
i would like to add an animation page inside a page flip.
View 2 RepliesI dragged the FLVPlayback to the stage and set the source to my FLV file name and set the skin to one of the options. My HTML page calls upon the published SWF file. Do I need to name the additional SWF file to the same name as my skin?
How do you publish the skin file also?
I'm thinking this issue lies with the dimensions of the movie. The FLV says it is 640 x 480. So I went in and modified the Flash document to the same. Do I need to use the Transform tool and make the actual player to these proportions so it fills the stage? - here is where the confusion lies...or is it 'smart' enough to conform. My settings are the default of 'maintain aspect ratio'.
