Basic Use Of Buttons
Apr 15, 2009
I have a flash file and in the main timeline four frames and and each frame has a stop action with a different movie clip in it. Frame's 2 movie clip has a move and at the end of it I have a button and want to make it when you click on it you go back to the main time line but the second frame. I have a "go to and stop" and tried others but none of them worked. it only stays in the the movie clip timeline.How do I get it to when you click on the button and it goes back to the main timeline from the movie clip?

I have some code below which creates a background and buttons for a basic website. The site consists of 8 sections, with photos, text, etc.I am trying to "_Alpha" fade the entire page upon page Load. I want each page to have the "_Alpha" effect. So I need a function or a correct call to place on each page's code.For some reason, my code below works for the entire page and one button, but the rest of the buttons, still show up instantly. Notice a few lines below where I actually do my tween call, "//Alpha Ease-In". I am using "this" for my tween, but I have tried "_root", and even each button "_root.but1", etc. but it still seems to give me partial results. Anyone know how to correctly tween the entire page upon load?[code]

I have a flash site that has a presentation page it has a menu of two buttons (1) to take you to a slide show and (2) that takes you to the gallery. These are the only two buttons that seem to work in control test movie, I get no errors. The only button that is connected is the slideshow button (I haven't done the gallery yet). This button takes you to frame two. Where I have the main website. It has its own menu that spans across the entire website which is 25 frames.
Each frame represents a new page. I have mini menus at frames 3, 5, and ten. That are supposed to just advance the user to correct frame labels and stop. The only buttons that work are the ones in the first frames. The rollovers appear to work on all the pages when I advance the movie using the [ . ] key but I get no trace statement which means that it is not being acknowledged, all my buttons are named properly I believe so here is the code as well, all is in frame one:
stop();
//handle events for buttons...
Gallery.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
Home.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
Location.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
Guest.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
Lodging.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);

I would like to have a third party exchange english language text in a swf file with translation-text in other languages. They would like to do it via XML. Is there a place where I can look up some basic info on how to write XML code (beginner), or find a script that lets me exchange text/content via XML?

I am using Flash 8 - trying to get started by simply fading in/out using Alpha. I totally get on the first layer converting image to movie, inserting key frame and motion tween, selecting clip and changing alphato 0%. Where I am absolutely lost - is when it comes the second, third, fourth and fifth image. I have tried inserting new layers and repeating the steps - but for some reason 2-5 images do not transition like image one.

I'm creating my first Flash website using AS3, and it's really basic. I would like to put in a contact form, which I have made. I've converted the 3 fields (name_field, email_field and message_field) to a symbol (movie) called 'form'. I've also got a send button, which is called send_btn.
I've set up the Action Script so that when the button is clicked, the user is taken to a confirmation-style page. All I want to do is called a php script (I'm comfortable with the code for that) called 'mailer.php' and send the three variables from the form to it before then loading the confirmation page.

I'm trying to build a basic quiz - there are 6 questions and I want it to display a score at the end. Everything works and it shows a value at the end (but always '0'). It's not keeping proper scoring as users go along, it should be adding '1' point for each score, no matter what option is clicked it just traces '0' in the output window. Maybe something to do with the variable or? Kinda new to Flash, the chunk of code I believe to be the issue is below,
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
//varialbe for keeping score
var score:Number = 0;
//event listeners for button clicks, which will adjust the scoring array

i've been trying to animate a basic character, which is a comp of 2 legs, 2 arms, a torso and a head.I want it to move from point a to point b, whilist moving it's arms and legs in a very simple manner. what i've done is motion tweened the main character from point a to point b during 10 frames, and then inside the character i've classic tweened the arms and legs during 10 frames aswell. the animation inside the comp is working, but in the main scene i only see the character moving, and in frame 10 the arms and legs change to the tween's final pose, without the entire animation in the middle...

I'm just started doing 'hands-on' learning of Actionscript 3 using FlashDevelop. I've now managed to subclass a sprite, load a graphic from the library, and manipulate it around the stage. Next step is doing the same with a MovieClip, but it doesn't seem to be as simple. Basically, I want a simple subclass of MovieClip, that uses a SWF that I created & exported in Flash CS5 (anything else that can create them?), and then added it into my library in FlashDevelop.
In my 'Main' class, I want something like this:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
public class Main extends Sprite {
private var myClip:MovieClip;
But that says the child is null, and I'm not sure I should be creating a 'new' MovieClip inside my sub-classed MovieClip anyways.

I'm trying to develop a Flex Mobile / PHP application, and I'm running into some trouble with the AsyncToken... Does it not just return a basic string?
For example... I'm wanting to just return a simple string result from my request - right now, it's going to return a basic output string from the method that's implemented. The backend part works (PHP), I've done all of that... It's this that's giving me some problems:
import mx.rpc.AsyncResponder;
import mx.rpc.events.FaultEvent;
import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent;

I've got records being populated into our database from paypal's Instant payment notification methods...great. now i turn to our flash cs3 app to populate a component datagrid with the stored database data and to my surprise I'm unable to identify any examples on how this might even be done.
How do you connect to an mssql database from within flash cs3 to retrieve data for displaying within a flash datagrid?
I can write a cfc from coldfusion to return a dataset, but overall i'm not sure if i 'have' to learn Flex, or AIR or what to get the records 'read'.
My ActionScript 3.0 bible is vague at best and resorts to php. (which i dont know)

i would like to open a URL in a new browser tab from Flash (by clicking on a button). The page is protected with basic http authentication (the browser displays the login window), but i would like this authentication to be automatic.
The code i have now is this:
Code:
var urlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("some_URL");
urlRequest.data = new URLVariables("name=John+Doe");
urlRequest.method = URLRequestMethod.GET;
[Code]....
I have a system where users authenticate over Flash and then they should be able to browse various folders on the server, which are protected with the same user/pass and i don't want them to enter the authentication twice.

I've had C# lessons in class and saw some basic class functions. Now however it's been a while since I worked with AS3. And it seems I can't figure out a basic way to communicate through different classes. I'd hoped I could do something like level.backgr1.x += 5; Where backgr1 is a MC defined in the class Level. I'll explain the thing I want to accomplish. I have a 3 classes, Main, Player and Level. Player and Level are children of Main. the mc in Level needs to move when a keyboard event occurs in Player. But only Main can acces Level because it is it parent.

What is a good structure for a complete Flash website. ex.
1) Index.swf ( which is just a container and loader for the actual SWF site content)
2) Main.swf (the main content of the site that gets loaded in by Index.swf)
Should the index.swf load in several SWF's , like navigation file , news reel file , etc....Also , if anyone know of a web site that has this information or knows of a book that covers this material ,

Id like to make a graphical editor with flash that has some basic features like copying and moving files, and editing text-files.The editor is to be used exclusively offline.I know that AS doesnt provide such functionality, but perhaps its possible with some backend script that doesnt require any installs (like php does)?Javascript, perhaps? Does it have the power to edit files etc?

I've tried to build up a little menu/breadcrumb, which I thought would be as simple as could be. Buttons with InstanceNames and their corresponding FrameLabel. Home, Portfolio and Contact work, but not the others? I even put a basic trace to see if the onRelease was working, and it wasn't, even though the code for each button is the same??
Code:
stop();
btn_home.onRelease = function() { gotoAndStop('home'); }
btn_portfolio.onRelease = function() { gotoAndStop('portfolio'); }
btn_film.onRelease = function() { gotoAndStop('film'); }

Since I began this project I have changed how I work and opted to create all text from here on out via actionScript.Since making the decision, however, I have to deal with text that has already been implemented. I am trying to reference a text field that has been statically created and cant quite figure it out unless I convert it to a MC symbol. Is there a way to access one of these fields through my actionScript much like I would if I were doing it striclty in code .. much like:
Code:
var myTextField:TextField = new TextField();
Where I could then access and assign properties... eg:

I have a simple movieclip on stage which has a circle drawn in it. Just tweening it from one side of the stage to the other causes a jumpy/glitch effect. I'm not using any easing- if I do use it, the glitch is still there. But if I do this: myMc.x-=1 on Event.ENTER_FRAME, the movement is perfectly smooth (but far too slow for what I need, even on 40fps, 60fps upwards). I used to use Flash 8 and have no problems at all (from what I remember).
