quick question regarding the TextEvent:LINK.It stopped working recently when I switched my interface and I'm not quite sure why or how to fix it.I have a movie clip which contains a text area and a scroll handler. 3 of these are added to my interface, although only 1 at a time is active in the display, depending on which tab you click.
All of that works fine, but once I change the chat object (textfield and scrollbar) in the display, it seems to stop working, and I'm not quite sure why. I'm not creating new instances all together, just adding and removing from a parent clip upon clicking different tabs.
what would be or could be causing this? As far as I can tell nothing is over or obstructing the clip containing the text field and scroll bar. The scroll bar actions work fine, which is next to the text field, however there seems to be no action going on as far as clicking links in the text field.
Edit - Textfield is selectable, I know they need to be for the event to work.
I had to do some maintenance on an older flash site I built (Flash MX, AS2.0). I have some href links in a html text. For some reason they are no longer working correctly. If you click on it, it will do nothing. If you right-click on it, a menu will open with options to Open, Open in new window, & Copy link.
I have problem with links in dynamic text box. Text is loaded from xml, text field is styled with css attached to it.
Text field is hidden until onRollOver event is triggered, when field scrolls in visible area of the stage.
Everything is working fine excepts click event is never triggered on links, while hover works (links change their color).
Movie clip with onRollOver event is higher in depth hierarchy than text field (they are overlapping). If I swap depth, so text field is with higher depth than movie clip, than on link hover, onRollOver event is lost, and text scrolls back out of the stage...
Is there a way to make link clickable if text is under movie clip with onRollOver event?
I've got a canvas within which I have a list. The renderer for this list calls upon a "Text" field, with the "link" element of this field set to a function. The "htmlText" of the field is set dynamically to a mixture of words and links. Basically the function checks to see which tag within the htmlText has been clicked and performs an event accordingly.However, you have to click the link twice for anything to happen. Whilst debugging the code I noticed that the function referenced by the "link" element isn't actually even called until the 2nd click.
The ad on the bottom right of the screen (the one with lightning flashing) has an invisible button in its Flash file (CS5) linking to [URL]. This file is imported as SWF in Dreamweaver CS5.
The hyperlink works in Firefox, but not in Safari. Maybe it is just my computer.
When you click on a button and the animation is supposed to play foward or reverse based on which year the user is currently on and which they are selecting. Going forward is no problem However I don't know how to link the button event to the onEnterFrame() event so that when I use the prevFrame(), it will play in reverse at the same frame frequency as going foward. This is the code I have now.It goes back to the frame that it's supposed to, but the animation is not at the same speed as going forward. I goes back as fast as the code can loop.
function frm94to93 (event:Event):void{ while (currentLabel != "Frame1993"){ trace(currentFrame); prevFrame(); }
The problem is I get Error: Error #2094: Event dispatch recursion overflow. Why does removechild keep getting called if this.parent does not exist? Why doesn't removing event listeners work?

There this link in Flex that was working and now isnt... Flex is giving me a headache with this one because it is not throwing any errors either.
In the script part of the XML I have this:
private function onLinkClick( event:TextEvent ):void { var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest( event.text ); navigateToURL( url , "_top"); }
[Code].....
It was working but now the link doesn't and the swf's not throwing any errors either. This is very strange behavior, would anyone know why the link won't work?
I've created a button in a swf file when clicked should open a website in a new window. It works on my mac but it doesn't work for my client's pc. The banners are here [URL] . It's obviously something wrong with my Flash file because my client can make the banner on this page [URL] work.
I have a flash banner and i am using AS 2.0. The code embedded in the flash banner works with any url other that the one i am trying to embed.Here is the code i am using:
on (press) { getURL("https://wcc.webeventservices.com/eventRegistration/EventLobbyServlet?[code]....
Somehow flash does not like https links. It works fine with other links.
i am very new to xml flash and i have a problem in my code i m making a flash website for my frd and i cant make it work .....i am having problem regarding my coding i have few buttons which says click here but i cant link them. my code is here
this is probably a simple issue, but i'm new to actionscript and am pulling my hair out trying to get this email button working. I have a simple button in flash 8 which I have labeled "email_btn." I am using actionscript 3.0 and in the actions layer I have this code:
I am a graphic designer. I do not work with flash too much. I recently make a flash banner for my client but had a problem with linking the flash file to the url. I know actionscript 3.0 little.I used a movieclip (instance name: link_handler) over all content and set alpha to zero. That use this coding:[code]I used _self because i want to open the link to current window. If i use nothing it open in new tab/window. But this causing error when clicked and flash player shows this error.[code]you can see the page here. montana2you.bigcartel(.)com/ The banner is in the footer. (all url replaced by {url} )
I have a problem trying to get a button to go back to the start of the a main movie. I have added the button(see below) into the main movie which is only one frame and contains a quiz movie. I want the start button to be visible in the quiz movie (which happens ok) but want it to link back to the main movie when clicked. The link is not working and no errors are showing.
ActionScript Code: import fl.controls.Button; var startTextFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat(); startTextFormat.bold = false;
I have a movieclip acting as a button with a dynamic textbox inside. The text is being passed via a xml and it has a URL associated with it. But the link does not work. When I remove the onRollOver action that makes my mc button show a rollover state the link works. But when the rollover is active it doesn't.
If there's a way to pass the URL via xml to the button, instead of the text inside the button, that would also be good. (even better because that way the whole button would link, and not just the text)
I would like to underline a link in a TextField when the user rolls over it and return it to its normal state on roll out.
Does anyone know of any way to access the rollover event for links displayed as htmlText? Flash player is able to recognize the event, as the cursor is changed to the hand cursor when hovering over a link. However, I have been unable to access this event. I do not want to add a listener for a rollover of the entire TextField, just the link.
We have a Flash banner on the home page and each slide has a link to some other page. Everything works fine, exept in IE.
Basically what happens is that if you click on the banner the first time, the link will work fine and bring you to the new page. However, if you go back to the home page again, then the banner does not even present a link anymore (it will still work fine as far as the banner rotation is concerned - just no more links)..
I have a flash banner that references and XML file with an absolute link, whilst I test the banner locally it works fine but when I test it online it doesn't link to the xml file.
I'm attempting to create a gallery viewer similar to the Apple on here: [URL]. Where the slide indicators are linked with the forward and back arrow controls. What I have is my forward and back arrows controlling the content, newsHolder MC. I also have the dot indicators controlling the newsHolder MC correctly. How to link the forward and back arrows to sync with the dot indicators?
PHP Code: function dotPressHandler (e:Event):void { changeIt(e.currentTarget.id); //current selection history code if (currentButton) { TweenMax.to(currentButton.dotCenter, 0.25, {removeTint:true, ease:Expo.easeOut}); [Code] .....
I have a flash banner that rotate 6 images(slides). and it includes 6 buttons to navigate in to each image. Also images are rotates automatically every 10sec.But these buttons are not clickable in FF/Chrome, but work fine in IE with wmode: transparent. Also these buttons work fine in all browsers with wmode: opaque.Also there is drop down menu on top of the flash movie(a separate menu not included in the flash). In wmode: opaque dropdown part of the menu goes behind the Flash. In wmode: transparent that want happen.
I dowloaded and played with the following scroller on this site... [URL] I see where the text is under Actions but I'm wondering if I can input hyperlinks and email links as well or will I only be able to use this with plain text. If formatting and links are allowed, how can I input the text to show as a link. Sorry, I don't know much about flash and just trying to make a simple text box with scrolling capability that will allow hyperlinks, bold, etc...
I have an AS3 flash movie and each page is a new frame. On my pages are dynamic scrollable text boxes that I created with the text tool. I would like to be able to make a piece of text a link (ex. click here for prices) so that it will direct the view to another page (label). I cannot figure out how to do so.
We have a little app in use with a customer where html links are generated dynamically at run time. The link text and url are put together from a couple of txt files that the customer regularly goes in and edits. These links have recently stopped working.
Of course, you would think the immediate culprit is the customer who has made a mistake in the txt files. But the the same vars from the same files are used to generate a couple of buttons on the page that DO work. And everything works when I export it from flash. It stops working as soon as it gets to a web server.
Here is the output from the functions that piece together the input data:
[Code]....
And here is the link to the app: [URL]
Choose a category in any of the lists and then any of the subheaders that appear. Most have a link in them. It's in Swedish but I know you lot are smart enough to navigate a flash app without understanding what you're clicking on
