Var Enquiry
Hi I know its easter sunday...just a quickie. I am moving a background image, with this function:

function via() {
easeType = mx.transitions.easing.Bounce.easeOut;
var begin = -1000;
var end = -200;
var time = 2;
var mc = via_mc;
viaTween = new mx.transitions.Tween(mc, "_x", easeType, begin, end, time, true);
}

well basically I want to change the value of var "begin" & "end" with new var giving the "current" value of my pic. SO i think i really just want a var that measuers the current _x value of pic. thanks

Flash Enquiry
i have deisgned a website for a radio station in html formatt at the moment , so for the first page, index.html i have a 6 second flash introduction filling the screen. i am not good with programming skills but can anyone tell me what action script i can put into the flash introduction so that when it ends it goes straight to the homepage: home.html. beacuase i dont want the user to have to click a enter button on the flash introduction.. can this be done ?

also the radio station features live music (of course). at the moment when users clicks to listen it opens up a windows media player, externally. but my supervisor says that some users may not have the latest codec and some users may be using a macintosch etc. so i have deisgned the media player in flash, is there anyway of having the flash player linked to the live audio stream form the server. dynamically. this way i can bypass all the technicall issues since anyone who uses the internet has to install flash media plugin anyway.

CDATA Enquiry
Hi

A have an enquiry regarding parsing html formatted text from an xml file.

I know how to do this using CDATA when the text is contained within its own node. However in this case the text is an attribute of a node like this:


Code:
<myNode number="01" title="My Node" text="This is where i want the html formatted text to go.">
Can anyone help me with this? I really dont want to have to alter the xml structure but will if it is the only way.

Thanks

Preloading Enquiry
Hi

Ive looked through many postings on here and still havent got definite answer to my problem.

Im using Flash 8, publish in 8 and as2

I have the same preloading problem, as many on here, that my preloader doesnt arrive on screen until about 80-90% is loaded.

I realise that Im using several components that require exporting in the first frame, and obviously it requires this to load before the preloader will work

What is the definite way around this? Can I export in frame 2 instead? Would I be better having a loading.swf with preloader load the main.swf( I have 30+ movies that will be loaded into the main.swf, these also require a preloader)?

Thanks for any help offered, but would like a definite answer to this for future consideration when building/planning projects, rather than a workaround per se.

Enquiry On Validation
I would like to do an application that has a drop down menu to store a list of text with categories. I used XML to store the list of text. After the user has selected them, Flash will validate the answer user has selected and do a check to determine if the user has chosen the right answer. On top of that, the selection of answer is based on the image, to give them a description.


My enquiry is how do I validate the user's selection and the text that I have stored? Would it be more appropriate to do this using PHP to validate user selection?

Enquiry Form Problems
Hi, all I am trying to do is a simple enquiry form within flash. I have done these before but it's not working for some reason.

The cgi script appears to be fine to me, and I have set the relevant permissions on it.

Within flash I have three input text boxes, all have been given variable names. On the submit button I have this:

on (release) {
subject = "online enquiry";
recipient = "me@mydomain.co.uk";
}
on (release) {
loadVariablesNum("http://www.mysite.com/cgi-bin/FormMail.pl", 0, "GET");
}

Can anyone see any problems? this is driving me nuts
Cheers

Specific Enquiry To Experts
Hello everyone,

Just to let you know.

I am having some hard time to find a good tutorial website for submitting a flash form to an e-mail address using php. I have learnt a lot and this is what I came up with:

On my submit button, here is the code I am usingn (release) {
if (!Name.length) {

Status= "Please enter a name";

}
else if (!email.length) {
Status= "Please enter an e-mail address";
}

else if (!Request.length) {
Status="Please enter your comments or request";
}
else {
loadVariablesNum ("/php/mail.php?RND="+random(999), 0, "Post");
Status= "Sending Your Form. Please Wait One Moment...";
}
}

On my mail.php document, I have the following (ignore the variables in it as I have removed some on the above to make it shorter).

<?php


$Name = $_Post['Name'];
$Company = $_Post['Company'];
$Phone = $_Post['Phone'];
$Toll = $_Post['Toll'];
$Fax = $_Post['Fax'];
$email = $_Post['email'];
$Website = $_Post['Website'];
$SIC = $_Post['SIC'];
$Request =$_Post['Request'];
$To ="none@none.com";
$headers = "From: " . $_Post['Name'] . " <" . $)_Post['email'] . ">";

$message = "Hi",

" . $_Post[Name] . "has sent you an email message using the flash form from National Business Directory.
Please read below.

" . $_post['Request'];

if(mail($To, $Name, $Company, $Phone, $Toll, $Fax, $email, $Website, $SIC, $Request))

{


echo "Status=Form sent successfully to our Team.&";

}

else


{



echo "Status= Submitting the form failed, please try again.&";



}

?>

For some reasons, it would not go to the e-mail address at all.

Some help at this point would be appreciated. Thanks.

New User Enquiry - Moving Text On A Banner Showing
Hi all,

Apologies if this is in the wrong forum, but as a flash new beginner, it seemed like the most appropriate place to post.

I've picked up some of the Training from the Source books and am looking to spend some time with them this weekend but I'm currently in need of a hand trying to replicatean affect I've seen.

Please take a look at this: -

http://www.final-exodus.net/testing/web.swf

I'm led to believe that this sort of thing is fairly easy to do but upon opening Flash, I'm clueless. I've prepared my graphics files and have imported them to their own layer (currently the only one in the fla file). So my foundation is in place.

However, don't have a clue on what to do next. As such,any help is appreciated...

Many thanks,
Steven

Need URGENT Help Re: Required Telephone & Enquiry Type Fields In Contact Form.
Hi all

Thank you in advance. Help needed urgently. I need to complete the contact form I'm working on at work by the end of today if possible. I'm stuck and can not find the solution anywhere.

I need the AS to make users type only numbers in the 'Telephone Field' and users to only have the option of typing 'general' OR 'sales' in the Enquiry Field.

This is what I have currently in the 'Email Field'. I need something similar.

Attached is an image of the contact form I'm working on.


Code:
TextField.prototype.isEmail = function() {
if (this.text.indexOf("@") == -1 || this.text.indexOf(".") == -1) {
return false;
} else {
return true;
}
};
Kindest regards
Ben
