Using HTML Link To Control Flash Movie
Greetings,

Hi - i have what is probably an easy questions for those who know what they are doing.

I have a flash menu in a frame on my website - i also have text links below it in html - all i want to achieve is that when someone clicks the text links below the flash movie, it opens a page into mainFrame, whilst telling the flash movie to goto & stop frame 1. i assume i need to use some kind of FS command - but have no idea where to begin.

Please provide any info i may need to include in the flash file for this to work.

Thanks very much for any advice.

Control Flash-Movie By Link In Another HTML-Frame?
Hi.
I have the following problem:
I have a system with several frames. On the left frame is the navigation, in the right frame the content. Now I would like to put one big Flash-Movie in the right frame but to navigate in this movie by links in the left navigation-frame. Is this understandable? Is this possible by HTML or JavaScript?
I hope there is a way.

Newbie Question: Can An Html Link Change A Flash Movie Clip?
I was wondering if it is possible on a page to click an html link and make a movie clip in flash change.

For instance, you have a music website with links across the top including news and pictures. In the news section you want to include a link to the pictures section, but you want the flash background to change like it would if you clicked on the pictures button within the flash nav. Is that even possible? I hope this makes sense. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

HTML Link To A Specific Movie Clip In A Flash Site That Uses MovieLoad
Hi,

I need to be able to have an HTML link take the user to another full Flash website. But it doesn't take you to the beginning of the Flash site, rather, it takes you to a specific page in that Flash site.

Only problem is, the Flash site itself uses movieLoad function to load different movie clip into the content area.

How do I pass variable into flashVar to link to a specific movie clip when it is using movieLoad?

I hope that make sense.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you,
Kith

Html Link And Flash Link On Intro Page
I've noticed that a lot of Flash sites have some kind of detector to see if you have the flash plug in. Is that scripting?
Plus, I see that the intro page of ones site will have an HTML and a FLASH option to choose from to enter the site. Would that be enabled in the publish settings of Flash 5? I am curious to know how that is done because I am designing this young lady's site and she wants the viewers to have the options of HTML or Flash.

Thanks!

URGENT: Flash Navigation Embedded In Html That Link To Frameset Content In Html
Hi all,

I want to build a website that consists of a menu navigation (made in flash but embedded in a topframe in dreamweaver. On the left site, there would be some flash animations (images etc.)embedded in the leftframe and in the right/main frame, there would be either flash content or html content (depending on the content). The menu bar is made of 7 buttons; when you mouse over a button, you get a scrolling menu with different items, those buttons items have a rollover effect and when you click on one of this items it will load either a flash or html content in the right/mainframe of my dreamweaver site. My question is what is the best way to build this navigation bar so that when i click on one of this item, it will load the correct content in the right/main.frame.html. When this occurs, i want that the scrolling menu still displays while the content is loading so that when the visitor have seen the content, he just needs to click to another item to load the content (so no ectra step). Please help me with this as it urges.
Be clear in your responses as i am not a pro of actionscrit!
Many thanks, lineda

First of all, I apologize for my english. Hope I can make myself clear.

Load An External Swf Into A Movie Clip With An HTML Link
Hi Guys,

Real basic question, I've already scanned the forums/google but couldn't quickly find what I was looking for.

Here's the breakdown, I have an swf file that basically consists of a mc to be used as a holder. I want to externally load an swf into that mc. Easy enough, problem is, I want to do this from a standard html link on the same page (but obviously, outside of the flash file).

Will this require XML? Or is there a simple command string that will talk to the actionscript within the flash file?

In other words I need to click linked words in a HTML textfield and instead of opening a html linked URL I need to open a swf file so it opens within the same movie just in another level.

Thank you.

HTML Link In Flash
I'm pulling an xml file into a dynamic text box within a flash movie. I'm not sure how to code a link within that xml file so that it willload another movie clip.

Here's the specific situation:
In the "About Us" movie clip on level 1, the dynamic text box will load an xml file which is rendered as html. The xml file needs to have a link in it to load a different movie clip to level 1, replacing the existing clip. Is this even possible???

I could easily see creating a 'standard html link', to open a new browser and fetch an html page, but a link to load a movie clip???

I'm not really clear on if this is possible.

Thoughts????


Thanks a ton!
