Open Swf With Txt File Html Link
I've gotten close by reading tutorials and the forums but keep failing.

I have a movie that loads a txt file. This text file has html content that is generated in my swf. I know I need an href with asfunction in the text file and a function in my swf. I keep trying but with no success. Could somebody spoon feed the baby I'm not sure if I'm putting my function in the wrong place or my html is wrong.

Can somebody help?
Thanks

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

Open A New Link In Html By Clicking Button In Flash
Hi,

I'm facing problem while opening a new html window by clicking button created in flash.

For this I have used <embed> tag to add swf file in html. but could not add click code in HTML on that button.

Could any one help me out?

DynamicText(html) In ScrollBar Two Clicks To Open Link
I have a few dynamic text fields (htmlText) with links, either using the .url property in TextFormat and "<a href>" tags. The text files are then placed in a movie clip that was created dynamically which is then bound the the ScrollBar component.

At first it appeared that everything was working perfect....but after a while I noticed if I left the window containing Flash Movie and came came back, it would then takes two clicks for the links to work again.

Trying to track down this little bugger of a problem, I added a listener to the text field to check the stage.focus

Here is my return:

[object TextField] // clicked on a link that opened a browser window out of the Flash IDE
[object TextField]// clicked on another link that opened in the same window
// went and check out the new window that loaded the link
// when I come back and click on the same or another link I get ScrollPane as the trace on the stage.focus
[object ScrollPane]
//second click works and link opened in the browser window
[object TextField]

I am really at a loss as to what I can do to make it so you only have to click once for the link to download.

Thanks in advance,
D

How To Use HTML Link In Textfield To Open Swf File Within The Current Movie ?
Hi,

Is it possible to open a swf file, within the current movie using loadMovieNum, through the HTML link function in a HTML rendered dynamic textfield?

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.

Call Javascript From A Link In A Html Textfield To Open A New Window Possible?
Hello

This is the situation:

I have a textfile which holds some HTML-formatted text. I have added some links which open in a new browser window.
This works, however I was wondering if it is possible to call a "window.open(...)" as it is possible in normal web pages.
Basically I want to use in the textfile:

Code:
<a href="#" onClick="java script:window.open('...'); return false;">My Link</a>
Is this possible or do I have to open the links in a new normal browser window?

Another question: would it be possible to attach such a javascript function to a normal button?

Thanks in advance,
Christian

Link To A Specific Frame Of A Flash Movie From An HTML Link
How do I link to a specific frame of a Flash movie from an HTML link?

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!

I'm having trouble making a link work for PC users. (It works fine on two Macs I've tried.)

Do you know why this wouldn't work?

Thanks much.

Open New Link Then Close Old SWF ?
Hi,

I am looking to do exactly what the subject title says - link to a new page, and then close the SWF that took me there.

From searching the forums, I understand I have to use javascript to close the page, but when I do that the SWF is closed before the command to open the new link is performed.

If I put the close command AFTER the link command, it tries closing my new link, and brings up a rather annoying javascript verification message to boot!

Please help! There must be a way...

Thanks, Steve.

[F8] Open Url In New Window From Link In Swf
Hi, please help.

I created a link menu in flash and want to have the flash button on press:
1)open up a new html page in the same browser window, and
2) Open an external link in a new browser window.

Can't figure out why what I'm doing doesn't work. When I test the swf file, it works but from the html page where swf is embedded, no reaction whatsoever.

I tried three different ways:

on(press){
getURL("http:www.regency.org", "_blank");
}

on(press){
var myURL:String = "http://www.regency.org";
getURL("javascriptpenNewWindow('" + String(myURL) + "');");
}

And the following javascript: this in fla:

on(press){
getURL("javaScriptpenWin('http://www.regency.org',750,650)");
}

along with this in html page:

<script language = "JavaScript">
function openWin(sURL, iWidth, iHeight) {
var n=open(sURL,'0','width=' + iWidth + ',height=' + iHeight + ',menubar=no,status=1,scrollbars=yes');
}
</script>

Nothing works in browser. But opens quite well from swf.

Help please!

Link To Open In New Window Help
Hi, I'm a newbie so sorry if this is a basic question. I've developed a dress up game in which I had someone else write the actionscript for me, so I don't know the answer to this myself.

I have buttons/links in my games but want them to open up in a NEW window - how can I do this? This is the current AS I'm using on my buttons:

on (release) {
getURL("http://www.yourdomain.com");
}

Thank you!

[cs3] Url Link Doesn't Open In IE
Something is not working right.

I'm opening a new document (AS2).
using the text tool i write "test".
in the properties window i go to the link attrebutes (the one with the chain).
I enter "http://www.google.com"
I publish to a folder including index.html (which is untitled.html).
if i open the HTML in IE6 or IE7 the link will not launch the url.
It turns into a hand, it opens a 3 item menu if i right click (open, open in new window, copy link to clipboard).
The two open options do nothing, the 3rd indeed copys the url to the clipboard.

needless to say that it works perfectly in firefox but obviously it's not good enough for my client.

any ideas ?

Hi, I'm fairly new to flash, and would love some help with opening a link in a new window.

Link To Open PDF Documents
I currently have a button link that opens up a pdf document. On some browsers the default action is to download the file to the user's desktop. On other browsers the default action is to open it up right inside the browser.

Is there a way to force download it to the user's desktop, so the experience is consistent from browser to browser? Thanks.

Code:
on(release) {
getURL("test.pdf");
}

Help Link To Download PDF (not Open)
Hi, I am trying to setup a link for users to download a PDF from my site. Does anyone know if there is a way to force a download dialogue box, instead of having the PDF open in a new window. I've been using the GetURL to do this.

I have looked everywhere, and only found this:
http://www.informit.com/guides/conte...ash&seqNum=342

But when I try to do it, there are errors, and its way above me to fix. Any help is much appreciated.

PS - I'm trying to do this because for some very weird reason, when it opens now in the new window, Acrobat just crashes (no clue why, but it does on all computers -- I've tested on 5). Thanks.

Open Link In Other Window
Hi there...

I've a problem...

I have a main page called 'default.asp' which contains a link to open a popup with my flash navigation. This works fine.

But I've got a button in my navigation which should open an url in the other page (default.asp). This works in Safari, but not in IE and FF.

This is what I use now:

Code:

Code:
on (release) { getURL("javascript:window.opener.location.href = 'default.asp';"); }

It opens the requested page in the other window (default.asp) but it also clears the flash movie in the popup. It shows then the requested url instead of the swf.

Anyone an idea?

Thnx,

Leon

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
