Flash :: Add To Home Page

Back To Home Page, Whosever Home Page
Hi, I was wondering if there is a way to put code that when a user clicks a certain button it opens their home page. Since many don't have Flash 8, which is what I am using, the user won't be able to edit the Flash file they download from me. I would like the button to simply take the user back to the home page of the domain from which the Flash movie is located. Can I type / or ../ or something like that? Can I use PHP? Thanks

Making A Button That Allows Your Flash Page To Be The Browser Default Home Page.
Mmn, seems the original post dissapeared while i was typing , no prob, here is the code in anycase!

Ok a simple trick in IE but not in Netscape, as far as i know, its not possible to do this in Netscape. Also you shouldnt make the home page your swf file, but rather the html file with the swf in it.

First this requires an xml namespace to function, so change your top <html> tag to look like

<html XMLNS:IE>

Then create the IE:Homepage object using this, it can be placed anywhere on your page as long as it happens before the javascript.

<IE:HOMEPAGE ID="oHomePage" />

And finaly the javascript function that you will call from your flash file (using getULR('changeMyHomePage()') in flash) or from a normal link.

Code:
function changeMyHomePage() {
oHomePage.setHomePage ('http://www.womenslife.co.za/Default.asp');
}
Hope that was not to hair razing, post again if you have a question.

[F8] LoadMovie Flashes Home Page Before Correct Page
Hi All,

I've used mc's for my text navigation mouseovers and I've assigned the loadMovie action to the invisible buttons using a blank container (blank_mc).
When I test the movie 'home.swf' and click on the navigation - there is a second or two-long load of the home page before the right page loads.

Is there a way to fix this? Something I did?

thanks,

Pati

Transition From Home Page To Next Page In Same Windo
I can't wrap my head around how to have my home page transition to the selected page in the same window.
My home page animates on, the buttons pop up. When you click on the 'design' button, I want to trigger an animation where the home page slides down off the bottom of the screen, and the 'design' page slides down from the top. I know how to do the animation part of it, but I'm not sure how to put it all together. I'm using CS3 AS2

Thanks

1.7MB Home Page
I'm putting together a site and have just put up a temporary home page until I get the rest done. The problem is that it's 1.7MB. How do I slim it down so it loads quickly. The address: www.pearnotes.com. The images have been saved in Photoshop for the web and are all only about 16K each. They've been saved as movie clips and have been motion tweened, fading in and out. What do I need to do to bring the size down?

Home Page Set Up
I know that in html all you have to do it name your home page index.html in order to make it the first page or "home page" of the site.
How do I do the same for a site that is completely done in flash. I tried naming the file index.swf but I guess that is not the way to do it because it does not work. So my question is... How do i get my swf home page to be the first page that comes up when someone goes to the sight?

I am sure it is a simple thing, but I can't seem to figure it out.

Set As Home Page
I attached the following code inside a swf movie with a button, but it didn't work.

on (release) {

getURL("javascript:document.body.style.behavior='url(#default#homepage)';document.body.setHomePage('www.sufiwisdom.org');void(0);");

}

What I want is to set the page as hom page when I click the button. When I click the button it generates the following error.

How can I fix the problem?

Thanks to all,

'Home Page' Button Help...
I have the 'bookmark us' button working, and I have a button set up so the user can set the site to be their home page, but I can't seem to get it to work!!

I have done it in a straight html page, but how in the hell do I do it w/ the action script?? Any detailed guidance would be totally helpful!!

The code that I know works in html is below

================================================== =======

<a class="chlnk" HREF onClick="this.style.behavior='url(#default#homepag e)';this.setHomePage ('http://www.whatever.com/');">Set As Homepage</a>

================================================== =======

Also, anyone know a 'free' program that I can use to take songs off a music cd, and then turn them into mp3s to I can take (for example) the first 7 seconds of a song and use it as a background or sound clip??

Much thanks in advance,
Vanano

Go To Home Page Once Movie Is Done?
I have a Flash movie at http://www.downtoearthweb.com/moock/index.html

This is going to be at index.html in the client's server space. When the
movie is done playing, I want the main site page, home.html, to automatically appear.

I can't find any info on this in Flash Help. I tried a Flash getURL actionscript,
but it's not working. If this is the way to go, can someone hint how to debug?
Or is it a Javascript?

I'm a real newbie, so pardon if this is absurdly simple.

Many TIA,

Reload Home Page?
In my Flash application my homepage is 400k which might take a little while to load for dialup users. I have created a different swf for each page in my app. I would like the main page to not have to releoad if a user wants to return to it after having gone to another page. I am familiar with the loadmovienum command. Would I use this to keep my home page loaded so a user doesn't have to redownload it? And if so how do I manage other pages? Would I just load and unload them on level one while maintaining my homepage on level 0 and hiding and unhiding it? If there is another method I am all ears. Thanks so much for your help.

One more question. Will a preloader prevent any of my application from begining (sounds, embedded movies) until the entire movie is loaded?

Home Page Main Ad Box
I have 3 main questions:

1. What would you call these flash items?
2. Where is a good and easy tutorial about how to make these?
3. Are there any pre-made ones that could be bought?

Here are the examples of what I am talking about: (links below)

http://www.air1.com/ (this is probably the best example of what I am wanting to do)
http://www.bu.edu/
http://www.mitchelsliwa.com/
http://www.jasonreedwebdesign.com/

If I just knew what to call this type of flash would help a lot. I do not believe that it is a flash gallery or flash slideshow.

Help Preloading Home Page
I'm having some probs figuring this out....i have all my external swfs loading into an emptly mc.....but i also have my hopepage loading into this empty clip at frame 10 of the root. My prob is that the preloader won't recognize the home swf (28k) at frame 10, and that it may need another preloader just for itself. I want just one preloader for the root timeline. If i put the home page swf into the root timeline, how do i get it to unload when i want to load external swfs? Is it possible to unload swfs from the emtly (content) mc? Any Ideas?

Preloading Home Page In As3
the only way i know how to create a preloader to home page, is to make another swf which loads home swf.
but this is no good to me because when my home page loads i am than reading from an xml file some images and some text to load into a home page, which means i still have to wait some time after my home page loads...
so basically my preloader doesnt do what it should, or at least not what i am expecting...
how can i make it preload all what i have in my home page and then loads the home page?

How Do I Get My Intro To Load To My Home Page?
Alright the newb chick is here (well newb here but not to designing). I just upgraded to Flash CS3 Pro, and created an intro for my site. The problem i'm running into is how to make that intro load directly (without clicking) to my home page. The intro will be embeded as a .swf file through dreamweaver as just a flash file which the html page will be the index.html. How can I make this page go directly to the home.html page? What action script code do I need to put in and where? The intro is 95 frames long, 7 layers. Do I need to create an actionscript box and then put in the code? If so what code? Does anything need to be renamed to get it to work? Please help!! I just finally learned how to make URL's link, and that was such a pain in the arse! Any help would be much appreciated!

Flash Looping In Home Page
First let me say that my impression of this community so far is
Wow!....Awesome job you guys are doing.

I tried looking for what I’m about to ask in the forums and tutorials but so far
No luck. I’m sure this has been asked before. Pardon me if so. Couldn’t find it,
I don’t even know how is this thing called or if it has a specific name. It seems
so used nowadays.

I would like to have a flash in the home page of a site but I would really love to
Make it as it is in sites like Walmart, FIU, or MSN.com (but flash). The main flash
you guys have probably seemed in other sites…it is like a quick slideshow with
Usually 3 links that constantly loops and in some cases besides having “Next” or
“Previous” or just “Arrows” for user Interaction, the flash can be controlled by its
position (“numbers”) as well.

I would really appreciate the direction or help any Kirupa community gives me.

Thank you for your time.
