Professional :: Setting Up Links To External .ASP Pages?
Apr 30, 2010
In my timeline I have different link hot spots, so that each product will link to a separate web page (externally).I don't think this is going to work:When I upload the Flash file to a server to test, the links show me the 'pointing finger' icon, but when clicked upon it does not even open another web page attempting to follow the link. - that tells me this doesn't work!I need to get this correct for when the final goes live. What am I missing? Should I try the extension? (product01.asp)
Looking for a tutorial to make individual pages (jpg or gif) into swf pages so we can add links in an on-line flip book. I have flash, but have not learned as of yet.
I have created two buttons from images, one to Facebook and one to LinkedIn.They both work perfectly in the test .swf file.When I upload them to my server, the Facebook button does not load correctlyThis is the actionscript I am using:
I would like to know how to track my pages with google analytics to see which pages are getting the most clicks. My site is XML / Flash the menu is xml. Could I put the tracking code on each of the menu items in the xml file?
The thing I'm trying to do is make a list/combo drop down navigation, so that when the user drops down the box and selects that item they are taken to another .html page.
Here is my code for buttons(working)is there a way to add links to html pages to the buttons.// Catalogue Bottom Button//stop();//hide button on the stage
catBtmBut.visible = false; var catBtmmenu_label:Array = new Array("Visit: The Grange Kitchen","Visit: The Bergerie","Visit: Badens ");var catBtmtotal:Number = catBtmmenu_label.length;var catBtmpage:Number;var catBtmmain_menu:MovieClip = new MovieClip();catBtmmain_menu.x = 35;catBtmmain_menu.y = 231;stage.addChild(catBtmmain_menu);for (var catBtmi:int = 0; catBtmi < catBtmtotal; catBtmi++){ var
I was wondering how do I make a link to a new page from a page that has already been played onto the stage. The pages are made from movie clips, and the buttons are also movieclips. So for example, I click on about us from the menu bar, and the page animates on, and within that page is another link to go to another page. I just cannot get it to work. All the pages that I have are made from movie clips.
[URL] On the left you will see a menu, it will be flash (actionscript MX 2004) and for the effect I want it will have to be flash. Now, heres the tricky part for me: I want those links to open up different pages inside the black center box either using frames or php. How could this be done? On the menu part, also, with the buttons, I need to make them movie clips for the effect I need for the rollover, but I want the movieclip to have a hitspace, how do I assign a movie clip a hit space.
I'm trying out a page-flip program that tells me to create the pages as jpegs within a folder named "pages" in the Library. When I try to run it, it tells me it can't find the jpegs. I can get it to work locally by including the full URL (i.e., "...My Documentsedinnerpartiesimagesp3-large.jpg), but I know this isn't embedded in the swf file.
i am desiging a news form that read the news from an external text file. I made it ok and with a typewriter effect and it worked great...my only problem is that i want the text that will be loaded from the text file to be links to other pages.
I'm having trouble and I was hoping someone could shed some light on what I'm doing wrong. I have a main .swf file from which external .swf files are being loaded through the use of buttons.When I preview the animation, everything works just fine. The problem occurs when I put the animation on the website where it needs to be. The main animation appears like it's supposed to, but the buttons are not successful in loading the external .swf files. I've made sure that all .swf files are on the server but still nothing.
Here's the AS:
stop(); var presentationLoader:Loader = new Loader(); addChild(presentationLoader);
I am trying to load an external swf with multiple pages so that I can print it in flash this is what I am doing:
Code: function loadImage(url:String):void { // Set properties on my Loader object imageLoader = new Loader(); imageLoader.load(new URLRequest(url)); imageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, imageLoading); [Code] .....
I use the loadImage() function to load a multiframed swf movie then I use the function below to print but only one page comes out what am I doing wrong? How do I get it to print all the pages of the external swf? Code: function printScore(mc:MovieClip):void{ var myPrintJob:PrintJob = new PrintJob(); if(myPrintJob.start()) { var printOptions = new PrintJobOptions(false); [Code] ..... //Fail no printer
I'm having trouble linking buttons from a swf banner that will be on all html pages. I'm using the following script, which doesn't work yet.For now, I have only two buttons. Button btn_1 should go to page_1.html, which is in a folder labeled pages.I've tried the variable name and the navigate to URL and neither have worked.
--- AS3 btn_0.mouseEnabled=false;// setting the first button -home - invisible btn_0.alpha=0.2; // sets the color of the button 20% alpha
In Kirupa's tutorial, Adding Thumbnails, when an image is loaded in the thumbnail viewer, you are able to click on it and load an external page. I've been searching for a while, but I am unable to figure out how to accomplish this.
I'm creating a site that loads external .swfs as pages. I have little understanding of how Loaders and instance names work with AS3 (even after reading the documentation), so I'm having some difficulties.
I'm loading the .swfs in a movie clip named "container." I want to replace the contents of "container" with the web page .swf that the user chooses, but I don't know how to write the condition to: a) check to see if something is already inside "container"b) remove the contents by instance name or method of MovieClip. I'd prefer to remove whatever is inside of "container" rather than switching cases for different instances.
I'm trying to implement swf address with my website that uses external swfs as the 'pages'.
[URL]
But I haven't been able to find an example file with example code that I can ferret out how to apply this to my website. I've also checked the swfaddress and while there is a link to this:[URL].Also... is it unwise to retroactively work in swfaddress to an already compiled as or should i be starting fresh, knowing that I am going to give unique urls to various buttons, that when clicked, bring up a certain 'page' or external swf?
- I made a flash-based website using Flash CS3 and then embedded the file into a blank html page with Dreamweaver cs3.-All my buttons, linking, and content were made in Adobe Flash CS3 using ActionScript 2.0 (AS2).The issue I am encountering is that when i click on some buttons that have get URL codes, they will not load the html files assigned to the As2 code of the button. The html files are supposed to load in a separate browser window for each html page assigned to each button. The html files are located within subfolders in my Main Site Root Folder.All my AS2 code is Object-based; meaning I applied it directly to my button symbols.

how to code transitions between pages. specifically, i want an animation to play when you arrive at a page and the same animation to play in reverse when you leave the page.my website is built in flash cs3 using as3. the buttons are coded using simple eventListeners jumping between keyframes on a single timeline using gotoandPlay actions.
The pages get scrambled once I publish and test it for instance the one page shows and then the next and then another - all after another in rapid succession.I have the following layers:
1. Background - 20 (Where layer stops)2. Template - 20 (home) 3. Buttons 20 (the "20" layers will eventually change once the site grows bigger)4. page two- 25. page thee - 11 (has 9 pages on its own)6. page four - 12 now, the pages only jump around ONCE I ADD PAGE 4 - which is a movie.The movie is an .SWF and works fine on its own. The movieload tutorial is correct and works. There are also buttons on page 4 with button commands - I removed them and tested the published website without the buttons but they continue to jump around.
I'll try again, but this time I can add a link to the .fla my issue is this - I am building a website but the pages jump around - they don't stay still like they should[URL] the file is called "all files" - the main .fla is called "history" - there are two .swf's "wagon" and "band" if you test the website (CTRL+ENTER) and jump around between the pages for 20-30 seconds you will notice the pages jump around like crazy by themselves.
I have created a twitter API in flash using ActionScript 3.0 which loads the latest feeds from a user by using the screen name of the twitter user. When I test the swf locally it works fine. But the problem comes when I embed the swf in html page.The swf loads but does not show the content where it needs to access the TWITTER url to load the feeds.It doesn't load the feeds. It asks for the global settings to be changed.So, I have changed the settings and played the html page.I works fine.My question is when I will upload the files to a server the same problem will come and it will not load the feeds. How to solve this problem permanently?
I'm trying to use a .swf for a navagation button in a website I am creating but I'm running into a bit of a problem. I need to know how to code the button (In Flash) so that they link to my specific .html page. Is this possible to do with a realitive link?
I have created a website which loads external swfs as pages onto the main stage on the click of a button. I am using Flash CS3 and Actionscript 3.0. Here is my code:
I am trying to create a project with multiple pages. I stumbled across a tutorial demonstrating how to load and unload swf's. I used it and it works. way i could specify a btn or mc in the loaded swf that will specify the "click" area where the unload content takes place? Right now if i click anywhere on the loaded swf it unloads (i want that to be specified).
var myLoader:Loader=new Loader (); page1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, page1content); function page1content(myevent:MouseEvent):void {
I am making a flip book in flash. I am using swf files as individual pages. User have the option to print pages. I am converting the swf into a btimap using bitmap data but when I print the test is not clear and all pixelated. Is there any way to improve the printing quality of pages?
Using Flash CS4, I am trying to scroll a five pages text document... I already know to transfer a page from InDesign CS4 to a .swf file, but I just do not know how to make a scroll bar going automatically from one page to another automatically and in the right order.
