[F8] Movie Clip Actions Inside Main Movie Not Working
I know this HAS to have been answered somewhere here before... I've been doing Flash on and off since it's creation, but it's been a while since I used it. I have Flash8 running on this dev machine and I am adding a little accordion to an old project. I have tried calling the accordion swf from the main movie and loading it in, but this is not working for me.

So, I tried copying all of the frames form the external SWF accordion (it's small), along with it's actionscript to a MC inside the main movie and placed that MC on the timeline in the main file. The MC shows up fine, but the action associated with it is not functioning.... basically I want the text button to pop up the accordion MC and allow interaction by the user to click through the slides within it.

A little definition:
KSB_MC = the container MC on the main timeline that displays the first frame of the MC which is: KSBbutton_MC
KSBbutton_MC = the text MC visible from the main timeline that should launch the KSBanimation_MC (which is the accordion)

This is the AS I have so far that is in the MC I placed on the main timeline:

//first we stop both animations inside KSB_MC from running

KSB_MC.KSBbutton_MC.stop();
KSB_MC.KSBanimation_MC.stop();

//then we make conditional, the button action so that if the button_MC is pressed, the button goes to frame 2 and the animation_MC plays or else stop both animations

KSB_MC.KSBbutton_MC.onPress = function(){
if(KSB_MC.KSBbutton_MC._currentFrame ==1){
this.gotoAndStop(2);
KSB_MC.KSBanimation_MC.play();
}
else{
this.gotoAndStop(1);
KSB_MC.KSBanimation_MC.stop();
}
}

.......first of all, the KSBbutton_MC on hover shows a finger cursor as it should, but does not activate when pressed. Nothing happens after that. I get no errors in the AS checker....
my problem is with layering or something st00pyd. Feelin kinda n00bysh.

Help a brothah out will ya guys?

Load Movie, But Old Movie Is Still Working Underneath
I am using script to load a index.swf from page4.swf

I am using this script in a button: -
loadMovie("index.swf",1);

And this loads index.swf ontop of the current movie.

The problem is that after index.swf loads ontop of page4.swf, the buttons from page4.swf are still active, even though they are directly underneath index.swf.

Does anybody know how to fix this?

Loading Movie Into Another Loaded Movie Not Working...
So...I'm making a sort of web page which contains about 4 different sections. I've got the main movie "Loader.swf" which is pulling in 4 different movies using the createmptyMovieClip method. I've given them their own Levels and movie clip names.

Now, I'm trying to get one standard "Pop Up" window that any of those pieces can launch. The "Pop Up" window will be on Level 10 so it will always be on top of everything and if you should click another "Pop Up" window on the menu, it SHOULD replace that "Pop Up" with the new content because it's the same level.

Now, the problem I have is that in one of the sections movie, when I test it on it's own, the "Pop Up" loads just fine. When I run the "Loader.swf" movie, nothing happens. So I'm thinking the reference is getting screwed up somewhere...or the Level is getting jacked...I'm not sure. Any ideas.

Loader.swf code:

ActionScript Code:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("empty_mc3", 4);
empty_mc3.loadMovie("CustEx_Announ.swf");

CustEx_Announ.swf code: It's got a tabbed menu, so I'm running a function on the root level that SHOULD get called when a button is pressed. So here's the root level code:
stop();

ActionScript Code:
function LoadPop() {
createEmptyMovieClip("empty_mc5", 10);
empty_mc5.loadMovie("CustEx_EmpCounc.swf");
trace("I got loaded");
}

So...in that movie CustEx_Announc.swf, in the tabbed menu...there's a button to launch the "Pop Up":

ActionScript Code:
readMore.onRelease = function() {
_root.LoadPop();
}

Any help is appreciated.

.asp Not Working With A Movie Inside A Movie.
I have a guestbook which calls on an .asp file that works when it is loaded by its self. However, when I try to load the movie into my main movie with this AS
on (release) {
loadMovie ("./gb/guestbook.swf", "mainmovie");
}
it does not work. "mainmovie" it the target empty movie that I am loading the movie into. The path is correct, because the movie starts to load and then hangs. Here are the AS's. These are in the movie that I am loading into the movie.

I believe that the problem is with the action scripting but I can not figure out what it is. Like I said, this works when you load the movie by itself, but when it is loaded inside of another movie, it will not run. Anybody know the answer to this?

Movie Within Movie Button Not Working?
Hello,

Is this script stopping my button from working?

I have this action script on a movie instance on my main timeline:

Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {

if (this.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, true)) {
this.nextFrame();
} else {
this.prevFrame();
}
}

on (release) {gotoAndPlay("infoStart");

}
What this does (as I'm sure you'll know) is slide my movie into view when the mouse rolls over it, and off again when the mouse rolls off it.

This is great.

My problem is, I have a button in a movie within that movie and it just doesn't work!!

Would this script be stopping any action script from working?

Thanks.

I have imported the film again, we tried to synk the frames and not sync them and nothing is woking. The clip is 2 min long and has all the same code as the other scenes but it just will not work. Any thoughts. It goes to the scene but will not play it.

when they click on the about button...

on (release) {
unloadMovieNum(1);
}
on (release) {
loadMovieNum("img/about.swf", 2);
}

where...

any help, anyone have any ideas?
thanks a lot mates!

Load Movie Not Working In XP
I posted a variation on this yesterday, with no responses.

I've got a main swf that loads other swfs into different levels. On Windows 98 machines with IE 5.5, they play as expected. But on XP machines with IE 6, only the swf in level 1 and 0 load. The other ones don't. Does anyone have any ideas what would cause this? Or how I can fix it?

Trying To Set _x After Loading A Movie... Not Working
I'm loading an image into my movie clip, and I set the _x and _y after its loaded so that I can center it based on the size of the image that I'm loading. The only problem is it doesn't seem to change the _x. If I click the button again, THEN it will center it, but otherwise it just starts off loaded into the top left-hand corner.

Also, if I load two differnt sized images, then the second one loaded will end up having the same _x and _y as the first one.

BASICALLY all I'm saying is that my code isn't changing the _x or _y right away, and I dunno why. It usually works for me.

Code:
on(release)
{
loadMovie("images/image.jpg", _parent.mainpl);
_parent.mainpl._x = 120 - (_parent.mainpl._width / 2);
_parent.mainpl._y = 0 - (_parent.mainpl._height / 2);
}

Random Movie Not Working
My first post here I have been around here, especially looking at the tutorials for things I'm not good at. Just recently I discovered the forum...
My problem is the following:

I have three swf's:
inside1.swf
inside2.swf
inside3.swf

There's a movie inside.swf that's calling out one file randomly 1, 2 or 3 on every reload of the HTML page. My problem is the following:
inside.swf works great on both local computer and when called in browser (i.e. http://www.mysite.com/flash/inside.swf).

But when the HTML page index.htm that has inside.swf in it loads, I see just the background color of the flash file. It doesn't look like it's calling out inside1, 2 or 3.
Need help on what might be happening.

MANY THANKS
and keep this great forum up.

Not Working Load Movie
This is a bit hard to explain so I have attached the movie.
What I want it to do is when you roll over it the movie pops out from underneath which it does but for some reason it doesn't work after that.
Also I can't get it to load any of the other Mov eg Mov 5, Mov 4 into the blank mc it only loads in Mov 1 not sure whats going on there.

Its sounds a bit confusing I know I'm not a regular user of Flash.

Cheers.

Font Not Working In Movie?
I created an mp3 player in Flash MX - the font looks fine on my pc but when I view the page on other computers (same browser - IE 6), the font only appears correctly in some parts but not all. The font should be Bank Gothic - like the movie to the left. I created the movie on the left using Swishmax.

Any ideas why this would happen?

Movie Freezes, Next Not Working?
1st if this has been addressed before I appoligize, the boss doesn't like to see me not coding

my problem:

I have to create a flash presentation to be distributed on cd. I kind of know the basics, and I was able to put something together. My problem is that when i compile the movie together with all the scenes, some simple do not work. the time line navigation is consistantly the same though the movie so I am at a loss as to why it freezes on some scenes and works fine on others. If i compile each scene idividually they work as intended.

I would love some help on this.. and it's for a non-profit human services organization; so you can feel like you are making a difference

Load Movie Not Working
I have a problem and I have no idea what is causing it. I have a movie which has some buttons on the first few frames which call to gotoandplay a frame label (in the same timeline) "aboveframe." This frame loads another .swf into a blank movie clip on the stage. The code on the frame is this:

stop();
e_mc.loadMovie("above.swf");

Where e_mc is my empty clip, and "above" is my (single frame) .swf (which has a "stop" code on the first frame of it). I'm finding that after a few seconds, though, the movie repeats to the first one or two frames of the original movie, and "bugs out," by which I mean it just shuffles between those two frames. I do have pauses set on both of those (shuffling) frames, but when the movie repeats back to them, the pauses aren't even obeyed. Does anyone have an idea about what might be causing this? Thanks very much for your time.

[F8] Movie Clips Not Working
Hello all,

This is my first post on flashkit boards..and I have rummaged around here looking for some answers..but I am stuck..so here I go.

I have this movieclip here that has 4 links to it..I want these links to go to a certain web site, but they don't work. The aboutus movieclip has 4 links when you rollover it, and the text that comes down is a movie clip itself..My goal is to have 6 of these movie clips with rollover(withtext) and rollout for my website..I just can't get these urls to work with my code..I think its because you can't have a movie clip inside a movie clip..Here is my code for my main movie clip you see here.. My movie clip that doesnt work

aboutus_mc.onRollOver = function() {
aboutus_mc.gotoAndPlay(2);
}

aboutus_mc.onRollOut = function() {
aboutus_mc.gotoAndPlay(15);
}

That code up there is for the rollover and rollout animations on the aboutus movieclip...Now what do I set the text to and how do I get it work so that when I click on the text it goes to a url..?

Anybody out there that could help me? I would really appreciate it.

Mask Not Working In Movie...
Well actually its working for me. My client says the mask isn't working correctly when he plays the movie. He said it plays fine on other people's computers in his office. Any idea why it wouldn't work on a certain computer? I was thinking maybe his flash player was an older version, but the movie is a executable (.exe) file...it also plays full screen using fscommand if that matters at all.

Just thought of one more thing, it is not a dynamic mask, all objects are on the stage already.

Movie Loaded Not Working... HELP
Kinda new to Actionscripting so i'll do my best to explain.

On my main movie I have a series of buttons and one handler mc for my external movie to load when a certain button is pressed. When I press this certain button on my main movie it load the external movie on to stage. Now this external movie is an animated menu sider.

When i press this button on the main movie it loads the external swf fine but it doesnt function at all. Its just sitting there. When i move my mouse over it, it should animate but doesnt.

Here is the code i used on the button in the main movie to load the external movie on the stage.

on (release) {gotoAndStop(18);
_root.container.loadMovie("movie2.swf");{
}

SWF Not Working In Flash Movie
Hi,

I've a little problem... I have a main Movie where I want to load a second one, a swf. There's no problem in doing that - I've created an empty movie clip, gave it an instance name, add it to a new layer in the timeline and placed the _root.Name_of_instance.loadMovie("movie.swf") expression to load it. In fact it loads.

Just one problem: if I integrate the swf in a php page, for example, it runs and works; if I place it inside the Main Movie, it doesn't...

Any ideas?

Kind regards,

Kepler

Movie Positioning Not Working
I have written a script that is suppose to attach the 100*100 movieclip "box" "p" number of times in rows of three. Each instance of "box" is named using a variable "i" which is where I believe this script goes wrong. The first instance always goes to (5,5) and all others are suppose to use the x and y of the previous instance to calculate its position. However, after the first instance, they all go to (0,0). PLEASE HELP!

ActionScript Code:
p = 7;
i = 1;
while (p>0) {
content.attachMovie("box", "box"+i, i);
if (i=1) {
setProperty("content.box1", _x, 5);
setProperty("content.box1", _y, 5);
} else {
if (lastX>300) {
setProperty("content['box'+i]", _x, 5);
setProperty("content['box'+i]", _x, lastY+110);
} else {
setProperty("content['box'+i]", _x, lastX+110);
setProperty("content['box'+i]", _y, 5);
}
}
lastX = getProperty(content['box'+i], _x);
lastY = getProperty(content['box'+i], _y);
i++;
p--;
}

Unload Movie Not Working
hi guys!

I wonder why the following code doesnt work using _level1.unloadMovie() nor even unloadMovie(_level1);

function checkSubMenu(checkLevel){
if (levelNo==checkLevel){
unloadSubMenu(levelNo);
}
}

function unloadSubMenu(unloadLevel){
//unloadMovie("_level1") was not working mabe a bug
// to overcome that I created a empty movie at the same level
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("empty",unloadLevel);
}

I could be doing something wrong but I cud not figure it out so I created an empty movie clip on the level where I want to remove the movie. Not the best way.

Any ideas

That external file is a scripted magnifying lens going through a map... the magnifying lens function doesn't work when loaded as an external file, and in fact most of my actionscripted swf don't! ... They all work perfectly loaded as level, but not on target. (and it has to be on target)

Is there anything I can do?

Thanks!

Why This Load Movie Is Not Working ?
im just drivyng crazy

when i load a swf in a level i use this simple acs

loadMovieNum("swf/acercade.swf", 1);

but, if i wanna load in a target i sue this: (it load the same external swf)

loadMovie("swf/acercade.swf", "this.load1");

the problem is that the level method is working (the load is succesfull), but when i load via a target method is not working, and its not a problem that the swf is not in the right place, coss the first methos it load, but i just dont get it why this is happening. the movie target is at the stage, it has a name and all that.
i do this millions of times and i really dont know why is not working.

help.

Working With Movie Clips
Hi,

I'm trying to get a movie clip to play, which is on the stage, from a button. The movie clip has a stop(); AS in the first line, so it doesn't play when the .swf file loads. But I want the viewer to be able to play the movie clip from the button.

How do I write the code for the button?

thanks
