Hi,

I have 3 fla files published as flash and html. Now I have saperated the swf files and the html files in two different folders called "swf" and "html".

There is a button on each fla which opens the next html file from the html folder.

eg. This is a code written on button in fla1.

on(press)
{
getURL( "../html/two.html" );
}

This code dosn't work. Will it work? because the swf and html files are in different folders.

Any idea?

Thanks...

Open Html After Animation
Hello! I'd just like to say thank you to everyone on GTAL b/c it's the best forum out there and I've learned A LOT. Thanks so much!

Alright, so I've created a couple of movieclips which are buttons that animate after you press them, however I'd like the movieclips to open an html page after the animation, but I'm not sure how to make this happen. I've searched around on the forum to find out what I can do, and I wasn't really finding anything. But if anyone knows of a tutorial or a topic where this has been discussed please let me know. Here's what my AS looks like anyway:

Code:

one.buttonMode = true;

one.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, mouseOverHandler);
one.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, mouseOutHandler);
one.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, ClickHandler);

function mouseOverHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
one.alpha = .45;
}
function mouseOutHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
one.alpha = 5;

}

function ClickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
import fl.transitions.*;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;

TransitionManager.start(one, {type:Zoom, direction:Transition.OUT, duration:2, easing:Strong.easeOut});
}

I'm still figuring out how to format AS3 so to speak, so bare w/me. Thanks again for everyone's help and big brains!

How Can You Open A Flash Window Using Html?
I want to use a dynamic text box to upload updates I've made to the site. I was wondering if I could put any type of coding in the text file to allow the link to open a flash window. Say I have a link, and I want it to open a window in flash for a 8-ball flash movie. I guess I could put the 8-ball flash movie in html and then have the link just go to that html file with the flash in it. Is there any other way to do it?

Open Html Files Into A New Window
I have a movie clip which contains 4 buttons, I'd like for the buttons that when on (rollOver) the box jumps to a specified frame.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

Can't Open New Window... Using HTML Frames
hi,

i can't seem to get flash to open a new browser window, and it has something to do with the fact that my HTML-based intro page (specifying site requirements, plug-in checks, etc.) uses a frameset.

the intro page consists of three frames -- top, middle and bottom -- with the middle frame containing an ENTER button. i want my Flash site to load in the SAME window as my intro page, but outside the frameset, so i set the target for my ENTER button (which resides in the middle frame) as "_top".

_self doesn't work, it loads the site into the central frame. target = "_parent" also successfully loads the flash site in the same window as my intro page and seemingly outside the frameset.

HOWEVER, once the Flash site has loaded, i can't seem to launch new browser windows from it. in other words, even though i want the Flash site to load in the same window as the intro page, the Flash site should be able to launch new windows.

the links in my Flash site that should launch content in new browser windows are all static text field links. i selected the relevant link text, specified a URL in the properties panel and selected _blank from the properties panel drop down target menu. but the new URL always loads in the same window as the Flash site.

this only happens if i access the Flash site via the HTML frameset intro page. otherwise it works perfectly.

anyone know what the problem could be?

you can view an example here http://www.carlottamanaigo.com/index2.htm (note: site still under construction... broadband connection required... dial-up version not ready yet.) click on HIGH BANDWITH to enter. once inside, try BIO, and VIEW RESUME. the resume should load in a new window, but instead it loads in the same window.

thanks.

Mx 2004 Open New Window, No Html
hello everyone!
i have been looking for a way to open a new window with simple content in it (.jpg, etc). i am doing a portfolio site that has a lot of images to show. all of the images are different sizes, so i thought that separate windows would be a good idea. i have tried some of the tutes on this site, but they involve putting code into the html page. i think that there has to be some kind of code that you put on a button to open a specific file. i could make swf's out of all the images, if i have to. please help.

thanks

[CS3] Window.open In HTML In XML Into Flash
Okay, here goes: My Flash CS3 file displays HTML text, read in from an XML file (within CDATA). The HTML text contains links in the form of <a> (anchor) tags (of course).

I am attempting to open a new customized browser window whenever a user clicks on a displayed link. So far, I am able to open a window, but the customizing attributes ("width=600,..." etc.) are ignored.

Rather than displaying for you the one dozen variations I have (unsuccessfully) attempted, does anyone have a simple example of something that actually works?

If what I'm describing is not sufficiently clear, please advise and I'll try again.

Thanks in advance!
