I am looking to add a horizontal text ticker onto a dreamweaver cs4 page. This is to highlight areas within the site so will not be linked to any news association, simply used for the benefit of the site and probably changed daily.I am looking for something simple that can be pasted in and will run even with me changing it!
View 1 RepliesI have produced several .swf files to be used as part of an interactive cd. I have produced the home page in dreamweaver, with a button link for each of the movie clips, but when the clip ends it just stays on this clip, i need a kind of "home page" link at the end of the clip to take the viewer back to the page with all of the links to the other movies on,

View 6 RepliesI'm making a website in dreamweaver with flash in it, I want to link an image that I have in flash to another page (.html) that I have in dreamweaver. When I first used flash and dreamweaver I had done it, but honestly now I completely forgot and can't figure it out. I know I didn't use any action scripts. I just put the page name (???.html) somewhere and it worked.
View 5 RepliesI embedded a SWF on a page and have checked it in Dreamweaver by selecting FILE | PREVIEW IN BROWSER. The page works just fine, video plays back and rollover button works perfect. I've then uploaded the SWF,FLV,html page and scripts to my server and when tested, the video wouldn't play. Below are some snapshots, the code and the html link to see if someone can give me a hand on this one.....

I have Dreamweaver CS5, and used the "Insert FLV" function to generate a flash video player. It creates a /Scripts directory with two files, swfobject_modified.js and expressInstall.swf, and it also creates two .swfs in the directory the .html file is located, FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf and an .swf named after the skin (e.g. Clear_Skin_1.swf).
When I have Dreamweaver generate the html code for all this with a relative path, it works. When I give Dreamweaver an absolute path, it doesn't. You can see an example at www.youngstreetdesign.com/staging/flvtest/test.html.
The top is the relative, the second the absolute. The third is something unrelated.Dreamweaver says "enter relative or absolute path here" in the entry where you give it the video's path, and the documentation says that absolute paths should work, so, I'm at a loss.
i want to link a flash button to page made in dreamweaver. so i am going from a flash slpash page to html..(if i am correct<--noob) its all on my ftp server so how do i write the actionscript to find the page i want it to? i am sure that i worded this whole thing wrong so bear with me.

I am curious how I would go about creating a headline ticker that would have a 3d look? I am trying to make it look like a drum roller. The part I am having trouble with is the dynamic text and how to give it a 3d look.
View 6 RepliesI've made a horizontal news ticker that scrolls a string from right to left using substring method and by changing the alignment. This works OK but I would like the text to start displaying again before it disappears completly off the left of the screen. I've attached the fla and swf.
View 5 RepliesI'd like to add a second news ticker text field right beneath the first one that loads its headlines from a different XML file. So my question is this -- (not very XML savy mind you...) How would I need to adjust the AS code to be able to have both text fields going at the same time? What parts of the AS code can be omitted? (to not have redundant functions) Is there anything I should be aware of that might be cancelling out the second text field from running? At this point, I can get only one of the tickers working at a time -- the other just sits empty.

View 6 RepliesI have been working on a dynamic loading news ticker for a site and have been running into two separate problems:
The first, creating a movie clip, inserting the following code:
var myTextLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var myTextField_txt:TextField = new TextField();
myTextField_txt.wordWrap = true;
myTextField_txt.autoSize=TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
[Code] .....
And having the clip load the text from the text file listed. In this version, everything is working fine except I don't have the ability to change the font, size, and color of the text using only flash and the text document, (to my understanding).
The second, creating two .fla files, one with the embedded font I want to display named font.fla, and the other blank named fontloader.fla. Also create an .as file in the folder with the following code:
package {
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
[Code] .....
In this second scenario, the problem is that I can't figure out a way to make the dynamic text scroll vertically and loop, (Was trying to figure out a way to save the fontloader.fla as a movie clip, then importing it into a new .fla and just using a motion tween on the clip, but so far I'm confused by it). This second scenario is also not my first choice, because loading the text straight from a text file would make the news section very easy to update for those who don't have any design experience.
Go to this site: [URL]. I got my flash intro onto the site and I got the HTML code from dreamweaver. I use 000webhost for hosting. HTML code is:

View 1 RepliesI have a site designed in dreamweaver. I inserted an swf file into the dreamweaver site to do the following :The swf allows people donate money through paypal and then return to the main site. I need a step somewhere so that I can disable buttons after the paypal process has occurred. Kglad has suggested that I direct to a new swf file when coming back from paypal. This makes sense, however, do I disable the donate button on the new swf file and if so, how will the actionscript recognise the button instances ?

I'm making a very simple news ticker that uses XML to load four items: copy text, an image, date and a URL. The script was pieced together from tutorials and a bit of self-teaching, so I know it's probably not great. The AS is pasted below. Everything loads just fine, but the button script returns an "undefined" error. I assume this is because the item is no longer found in the array, but I'm not entirely sure. I also think it may be that the loadMovie method isn't working well with a specific item in the array. Also the link does not work. *Note* I know there are probably more advanced ways to tackle this but I'd like to keep this at my learning level so I can grow with it. :-)
