Chromeless Windows That Open On Movie Load Or Load Of Html Page (Flash Ad Kit)
Hi guys,

I was wondering if someone could help me out in creating these flash ads that appear out of nowhere. I see them mostly on rediffmail, yahoo and about.com.
I know how to create a popup window on button click, but how you do that without a button.

There's another dimension of ads nowadays. They are the transparent ads. They really look cool. Could someone with this knowledge pleeeeeeeeese help me out. I urgently need to create these ads.

Regards,

Load A Flash Movie To A Random Frame Each Load
I have created a flash file that fades from one picture to the next. However, I would like to find an actionscipt that will allow the flash movie to load to different each time the page is visited/refreshed. That way visitors don't have to see the same image each time the visit the my page, but can still sit and watch all of them if they want. Also I would want to be able to specify which frames are available for load. That way the page will always load at the begining of each image animation... not right in the middle of it switching to the next image.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Load A Flash Movie To Specified Random Frames Each Load
Group:
I am trying to find a Actionscript where I can specify random frames and have the movie randomly load to the specified frames each time the page is viewed. The below scrip was given last time I posted this question, but it doesn't seem to load at the specified frames. Sometimes it does, sometimes it load right in the middle of an animation. You can see in the code below I would like the movie to load at frames 1, 116, 231, 346. Any suggestions?

_____________________________________________________

Array.prototype.shuffle = function() {
for (var ivar = this.length-1; ivar>=0; ivar--) {
var p = random(ivar+1);
var t = this[ivar];
this[ivar] = this[p];
this[p] = t;
}
};
ASSetPropFlags(Array.prototype, ["shuffle"], 1, 1);
var Array_ar:Array = new Array(1, 116, 231, 346);
Array_ar.shuffle();
index = 0;
function load_random() {
gotoAndPlay(Array_ar[index++]);
if (index == Array_ar.length) {
(index=0);
}
}
load_random();

Load A Flash5 Movie Into A Flash 8 Movie
HI, first of all i want to say that I`m a german student so excuse my bad english .
My prob. is that i want to load a flash movie (wich uses FlashPlayer 5) into my main Flashmovie(wich uses flashPlayer 8).
But the first Movie only works with FlashPlayer5 and I don`t want to change my main movie into FlashPlayer5.
So is there a command that i can paste into the loadMovie part?
For example:
Code:

createEmptyMovieClip("cont2_mc",1)
cont2_mc.loadMovie("gbook.swf")
cont2_mc._x=0
cont2_mc._y=100
(this line is invented by me :P )cont2_mc.flashplayerversion=5
Hope u`ll understand my prob. and my english^^.

Load A Flash Movie Last
I have a Flash movie that is on a web page that I want to load AFTER the content of the page is up. Someone suggested to me inserting a movie of the same width/height that is empty, except for the ability to load the movie I want after the rest of the page is loaded. They said that I could pass a loadMovie action to the movie to activate this in the pages onLoad event.

Is this correct, and if so, could someone fill in some of the details about how to do this? Thanks.

[F8] IE7 Won't Load Flash .swf Movie
I embedded a flash movie menu onto the main skin of my company's asp website. When viewed in Safari, Firefox, and some Internet Explorer versions, the movie loads fine and the menu functions fine. However, when viewed on various computers with IE7 the movie simply won't load. No error message, no redirection to a flash website (though I published with settings that should redirect the user if he/she does not have the plugin installed).

The website is http://www.ngparty.com

I'm taking alot of **** from my bosses so if anyone has some help I would definitely appreciate it.

If no one knows why it isn't loading but can help me make it load a standard html menu when the flash won't work that would also help my cause a great deal. Thanks so much.

How To Load A Flash Movie Only Once?
I am sort of new to the flash arena and have what may be a simple question, but I am having trouble figuring out a solution.

I have a flash movie on a site that I would like to only be played once even when the page is refreshed. I have the movie set where it will play through the animation one time (i.e using the stop command in the last keyframe), but I need a way to keep the movie from reloading if someone hits the refresh page button or follows a link and returns using the back button. Right now everytime you follow a link and come back the movie will reload from scratch. Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,

Load Movie Madness ( Flash 5 )
Hi

I need to create a movie for a photographer. I have created the main movie and need to sequentially preload the thumbnails into the main scene. What I have come up with so far is preloading say three external .swf's into levels 1, 2 and 3 respectively. Since the big images are going to go underneath the thumbnails I have placed them in a separate movie on lebel 4. Now I need to get the movies to talk to eachother. I can get say movie in level 3 to load but then I cant see 1 and 2 underneath it. How can I unload movie 3 when I want to load movie 1 or 2. I know how to loadmovie into an empty movie clip on the main stage but then will I still be able to see all the thumbnails loading.

Is this the best way do go about things or have I complicated my life as usual.

Does anyone know where I can get a tutorial expaling this.

Thanks in anticipation.
p.s the person that helps will be first on my christmas card list. Lucky hey.

Flash Load/unload Movie
Another question: I have built our website navigation in flash...its a virtual bar. Currently the file size is about 330 but I would like to make it smaller so people that are on 56k can get in alittle faster. I tried to separate the scenes into their own movies and then have it so when you click on the arrows in the movies load the the next movie...that worked good but the only problem is that when you go to the next movie, the previous movies buttons are still there but not seen (phantom buttons) Does anyone have any ideas around this? I have more things I want to put in our navigation but I need to get past this problem first.

Flash 5 Load Movie Question
Basically, want I'm trying to do is have a movie(intro, level1) play inside of my main scene(0) and once it's done playing, jump back to a certain frame in the main scene. I'm able to load the intro movie, play it and jump back to the main scene, but I haven't been able to successfully target a certain frame of the main scene. I also need a stop action where the intro move starts so if on a dialup, the playhead does not advance in the main scene before the intro is done loading/playing. Someone please help! I know I could just drop the intro into the main scene, but I'm trying to keep the file size as small as possible, but maybe this is the solution. Cheers!

How do I fix this? It renders my preloaders useless and it makes viewers on my site wonder why the thing the clicked isnt doing anything. I know this was not a problem when I had a ton of html files to acompany my flash files...but I have changed my site to not have all those html files. I have a single iframe to which I link each flash file to another..What is the proper way to link them to each other?

Flash MX- Using A 'loadVariable' To Load A Movie.
I've been searching the web for a tutorial or a BB reply about this, and I'm almost ready to give up.

I've loaded a movie with the 'loadVariable' command from an echo'd PHP document. I know the variables are working because the flash movie takes the string and fills in a few dynamic text boxes.

My problem is, I'm trying to take one of the variables 'TEMP' and use that to load a movie. So, when 'TEMP == "Light snow"' it will load 'snow.swf' on level 1.

I thought this would be easy, but I can't get it to work. Tutorials online tell me to do what I'm already doing, but I get nothing. Any ideas? Any help will be much appreciated.

Here's what I've got going on:
===================

flash movie on the site:
---------------------------
(movie at the top of the page)
www.squidaction.com/journal

variable being brought in:
------------------------------
www.squidaction.com/journal/time.php

My actionscript:
------------------
loadVariablesNum("time.php", 0, "POST");
var sky = this.TEMP;
if (sky == "Light snow") {
loadMovieNum("images/crap/snow.swf", 1);
} else {
gotoAndPlay(1);
}

Also- I have a dynamic text field that is displaying the results of 'TEMP'. So I thought that should carry the variable.

Thanks again,

Pat

Unload / Load Movie Flash 4
Ok, here's the deal...

I have 2 swf files - a splash movie and a presentation movie. The splash movie is supposed to play continuously until the button "Enter" is clicked. When "Enter" is clicked in the splash movie, the splash movie is supposed to unload and the presentation movie is supposed to load. Within the presentation movie I have an exit button that is supposed to do just the opposite - unload the presentation and load the splash.

Here's my problem(s):
I am using Flash 4. I have no say in this matter.

The movies don't seem to be unloading properly.

Here's the action code I've used on each button:



Enter Button in splash movie:

On (Release)
Stop
Unload Movie (1)
Load Movie ("pres.swf", 1)
End On


Exit Button in presentation movie:

On (Release)
Stop
Unload Movie (1)
Load Movie ("splash.swf", 1)
End On

Any help with this is greatly appreciated!

Load ASP Text Into Flash Movie
Hi,

I'm trying to load some text into a Flash movie. The text comes from an ASP page which generates specific text depending on an Id value passed in from the Flash movie.

Basically, the ASP page is like this:


Code:
<%
intId = request.querystring("Id")
response.write "output=Some text - id number=" & intId
%>


This is called from the Flash movie by:


Code:
loadVariables("terms_game.asp?CompId=1", "scr_all.txt_field");


This works with a standard '.htm' page, but as soon as I add ASP code into the called page, nothing appears in the Flash movie.


If anyone can help with this it'd be most appreciated, thanks.

Flash Movie Won't Load Beyond The First Frame
I have a very strange problem. I built a Flash utility in 5 frames, and tested it on my website as well as offline. It worked perfectly fine. However, when I uploaded it to the customer's website, it did not show up in the HTML page. When I accessed the SWF directly, it would not load anything beyond the first frame (which is the preloader). However, when I tested the subfiles which load into the main movie, they worked perfectly fine.

I uploaded the file again, and it still didn't work.

Has anyone ran into this issue before?

Flash 8: Using Load Movie With An If Statement....
Hi there,

I'm having trouble loading an swf using an if statement.

What I am doing is an interactive map for the US elections, the user clicks on either the democrat or republican button for each state and a score is totalled up on each button press. When either total reaches 270 they are the winner and I want to load in a ticker tape movie on top of the main movie.

I've created this function...

function checkscore():Void
{
if(demScore>269) {
loadMovie("confetti.swf", 2);
}

Which I call in on the button press for democrat buttons...

function buttonsDem(refDem, sco, stat) {
_root[refDem].onPress = function()
{if(_root[stat]._currentframe == 1) {
_root[stat].gotoAndStop(2);
addDemScore(sco);
addDembar(sco);
txtDem.text = scoreDem+"";
barDem_mc._width = barDem/2.877;
checkscore();
this.enabled=false;
this.gotoAndStop(2)
//_root[refRep].enabled=true;
_root[this._name.split('Dem').join('Rep')].enabled = true; // takes the name of the button you just clicked and replaces 'Dem' with 'Rep'
}

Most of this code refers to an array I have set up to handle all the buttons and states and scores for each state.

Not sure where I'm going wrong, I'd like to upload the file but is too large, if anyone cares to take the time to look at it you can email me at stevendbernard@yahoo.com and I'll send it on.

Thanks in advance
Steve

I'd like to do something similar to an html iframe where I have a box that contains another website (a web-accessed application).
