i want to click a button ("myButton") through scripting
my script is:
myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,onReleaseMyButton);
function onReleaseMyButton(event:MouseEvent):void { // my code }
I got a project I'm working on where i have a bunch of buttons that i wan to move to a new location when clicked and then go back when clicked again. Im sure its not as difficult as i think im just not so good with my code. Id rather not have to do 30 individual animation if i dont have to.

how to call a button. I have a main file ("AS3Build.fla"), which imports an xml file, and imports different swfs depending on which node in the xml is being referenced. One of the swfs("slide_01_03.swf") I'm importing has a button("btn_01_01") that I'm having trouble accessing. First of should the script for the button be in the swf that holds the button, or the main file that will be importing the swf? I've got it in the swf currently with a trace file to see if it's recognizing the click. So far not luck. So I'm starting to think it should be in the main fla, and be referenced something like: this.loader.addEventListener.btn_01_01. This doesn't seem to work either though.
View 1 RepliesI have a Flash sitethat I am buiding, and I have all the buttons set up as movieClips so that they can have a more extensive rollover state. I have each page of the site separated into separate scenes. I am just trying to script the movieClips to gotoAndPlay (scene, frame); here is the code I am using:
on (release) {
trace("FAQ");
gotoAndPlay("FAQ","start");
}
"FAQ" being the scene name, and "start" being the frame label. I am just tracing the onRelease to make sure it is getting the right info. It is.
I have a sample fla file, but I can't find where to edit the scripting in it. Basically there are 2 buttons, each one going to a different URL. I can't figure out where to change the URLs they go to. I've looked literally everywhere in flash.
View 1 RepliesI have a movieClip on my main timeline, that I have scripted as follows:
Code:
//IT Button
this.IT_mc.onRollOver = function ()
{
[Code]....
Basically this just makes the movie clip fade to a different color when rolled over. This works fine, but I also have individual buttons inside the movieclip that don't work. They don't rollover, or activate. As if they weren't really buttons. How do I script the internal buttons to "getURL"? I have tried the standard "on(Release)" format of doing it, and that doesn't work.
I'm am super new at this, and this is my first time ever using Adobe. I get the "joy" of doing a project in my school using The CS4 Suite. I was playing around and using this book to help me get a button to start an action. I have tried many different codings, but this one gets me the least amount of errors. This is what I have so far:
[Code]...
I am a main timeline, with a movie clip that I want to loop infinitly, until a button is clicked, once the button is clicked I want it to stop the movie clip timeline, once the button is clicked again I want it to start the movie clip timeline again.
I am not the greatest actionscripter, I understand it I just have a bit of trouble writing the syntax myself.
I am looking for a script that would say that when one button is pressed it brings you to a certain frame and that a button on that frame is pressed. I am making new links to an already created site, it was not done with frames but rather has a series of movieclip buttons that make related info appear. Now I have new frames that will link to that info. I can get to the right frame by inputting
arru_btn.onPress function() {
gotoAndStop(5)
but I need to have a movieclip button (arru_txt) on that frame to be pressed so that the info that goes with the link appears as well. Is there a way to do this?
I am not sure how to explain it but,.I would like to have a swf that has a button. When you click it, It would load a differnt swf.that would alow me to create a menu swf that when a user click a menu topic it would reload a differnt swf.

View 1 RepliesHere is my situation:
I have a Flash file hosted at:
http://static.mydomain.com/flash.swf
I have a web page that embeds that Flash file at:
http://www.mydomain.com/embed.html
The <embed> code for that SWF has the "allowScriptAccess" parameter set to "sameDomain". Currently, I cannot put links in "flash.swf" that change the location of the embedding page, because they are on different domains, and making a getURL() or ExternalInterface call won't be permissible.
Changing "allowScriptAccess" to "always" is not an option. Putting both files on the same domain is also not an option.
Policy files don't seem to be the solution (perhaps I'm coding them wrong?) and changing the "document.domain" of the embedding page doesn't seem to work either.
Today, I put a video into my website, the only problem is that I'd like to give it a close button (that would close the player, or make it invisible). How could I do that?

View 1 RepliesI found this code to play sound:
myButton_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonIsClicked); [code]....
I got it working fine, but was wondering how to program a function for another button to stop stop playing that sound?I tried a function with snd.stop(); but that seems to be incorrect.
I am trying to close on as I am attempting to get this incorporated into my website. It came with the recommendation to try the CS5 today to see if this will meet the requirement at the moment.There is a desire to take custom SWF files (I think there is something called Swish files too?) from various sponsors for advertisement purposes and place them on my website.The implementation was straight-forward to make them work through the webserver.I tried a custom example of making a button that upon mouse click would open up a new webpage in CS5 which did work for me.My problem is since the SWF files are finalized, there is no way to put URL information into those files.After doing a lot of searching around today, it appears that the best way to redirect a user upon click of a video is to:
1) Open up a new Flash
2) Import the SWF video file into the project
3) Create a Invisible Button over top the SWF video so when the user clicks, they are redirected to a specific URL.
But for some reason, when I tried to overlay it with a sample SWF file I imported, there was all this flickering going on to where both were made transparent to one another on the screen not to mention the video wasn't even visible at all.My hope was that the SWF video could be seen clearly while the button remained invisbile to handle the click on the video.Is there someone on the forum that is able to guide me fairly quickly with a fast-path procedure so that I can try this?

View 1 RepliesI've tried to write my own button based on MovieClip. So I created a new MovieClip called MyButton. It has 3 main frames (or clue frames or... I don't know how it's called in English): the first is for button's upState, the last two are the start and the end of press animation (I need a long animation - not just one frame). All the frames are empty. Then I created a class MyButton.as:

I have made 4 of these very short looping .swf files.Is it possible, by adding one simple button on the screen, for the user click and the next .swf background starts playing? So basically this button acts a 'next' button, and each times it's clicked the next .swf starts to play.

I need a simple image gallery to load when you click a button. I've tried shadowbox but have had absolutely zero luck. I'm not sure how to load it from a flash file and I know there is work that has to be done outside of flash like in the root folder. All I need is for a simple image gallery, nothing fancy, to open when I hit a button. how to use shadowbox in lamens terms or knows how to easily script a gallery that would be amazing.
