Tab Action Problem In Swf Form
I've created a working form mail module and everything is working fine (thanks to help from actionscript.org ). The only problem I'm having is tabbing from field-to-field. After I make an entry and hit the tab, the cursor moves as expected to the next field but when I begin typing nothing happens; I have to re-select the field with the mouse to get keyboard input.

Simple Form Action Not Working?
I have a simple form action placed into a flash form. I created a flash movie with a single text box and a submit button and have it working just fine except if you place a single qoute in the text box and submit the search, it then throws an error when it returns the asp page. Besides that the search function works fine in both IE and NN. I have tried to replace the single qoute with the following inside my flash code:

searchstr = searchstr.replace("'", " ");

searchstr is the variable I am using in the flash text box.
No go. The following is the flash code:
(on the submit button)
on (release) {
getURL ("/browse/browse.asp", "_self", "POST");
searchstr = searchstr.replace("'", " ");
}

I have also tried using a javascript fscommand and the replace() function in my asp page for the single quote issue and it worked great on IE 5.5 but not netscape. When you try to submit the search in Netscape nothing happens,Not sure why? This is the code I used in the asp page inside my fs command code: args = args.replace("'","")

Does netscape not support replace()? Any help or tips would be great. Thanks in advance

http://www.fzvastgoed.nl/pcxpert/formToMail.html

but it failed, because of not filled in parameters in the action script panel frame 2 layer 1:
-

please go to the tutorial i for this Flash 8 Form Mail at:
http://www.flash-db.com/remoting/?se...tegory=Utility

click on the button:
'Sample Flash ActionScript Connection Code'

And please tell me what to fill in for these parameters:
- var conn = NetServices.createGatewayConnection("http:// path to your gateway.php");

For this tutorial there is only downloadable these files:
- formToMail.fla
- formToMail.php

And not:

- NetServices.as

Multiple Buttons, Same Action, Bad Form?
Is this bad form?

thisObj.objective.onRollOver =
thisObj.expertise.onRollOver =
thisObj.experience.onRollOver =
thisObj.education.onRollOver = function() {
this.btn_text.textColor = thisObj.hlColor;
};
//
thisObj.objective.onRollOut =
thisObj.expertise.onRollOut=
thisObj.experience.onRollOut=
thisObj.education.onRollOut=function () {
if (thisObj.currentBtn != this) {
this.btn_text.textColor = thisObj.topicColor;
}
};
//
thisObj.objective.onRelease =
thisObj.expertise.onRelease =
thisObj.experience.onRelease =
thisObj.education.onRelease = function() {
if (thisObj.currentBtn != this) {
this.btn_text.textColor = thisObj.hlColor;
thisObj.loadPane(this._name, this);
}
};
//
This seems to work nicely, just wondering what is a more concise way to script multiple "buttons" with the same action(s)?

Best regards...

[F8] Simple Search Form... Action Script Help
I am not really a newbie, but I am not so hot with actionscripting.

I want to make a flash search menu for my wordpress theme, but I can't get the functionality that it needs with my knowledge.

I want an input box with the default text: "Type here and press enter to search..."

When the user enters the input box, the text should clear. If the user leaves the box and the input is blank, then "Type here and press enter to search..." should reappear. There is no search button, so the form will need to hear a keypress <enter>

Wordpress uses the GET variable "s" for returning searches.

Now, how would I do this without getting too complicated?

Thanks!

} and a php script Code:

<?php

$name = $_GET['name'];
$email = $_GET['email'];
$message = $_GET['message'];

$recipient_email = "info@pedicuresalonhannie.nl";

$subject = "Email van website Pedicure Hannie " . $email;

WORKS GREAT!

But now I'm working on this website contact form http://www.cow-design.nl and this contact form is placed in multyframes. The input boxes are made of movies. The movies are given a name like c1, c2, c3 etc. I can't give the inputboxes a VAR, because if I do so, al the boxes are given the same VAR value. The reset button is working fine with this code
Code:

on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay(2);
}
on (releaseOutside, rollOut) {
gotoAndPlay(11);
}
on (press) {
_parent.c1.gotoAndPlay(8);
_parent.c2.gotoAndPlay(8);
_parent.c3.gotoAndPlay(8);
_parent.c4.gotoAndPlay(8);
_parent.c5.gotoAndPlay(8);
}
The send button is missing the on (release) script and I've tried this one:

Code:

on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay(2);
}
on (releaseOutside, rollOut) {
gotoAndPlay(11);
}
on (press) {
getURL("javascript:openNewWindow('http://www.cow-design.nl/bedankt.php','_blank','GET','height=175,width=300,toolbar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=yes')");
_parent.c1.gotoAndPlay(8);
_parent.c2.gotoAndPlay(8);
_parent.c3.gotoAndPlay(8);
_parent.c4.gotoAndPlay(8);
_parent.c5.gotoAndPlay(8);
}

The email is comming to my inbox, so the php script is working, but there is not data? How do I send the data from the input boxes to my email?

I hope I have explained my problem here properly. I get used to make flash sites in one frame setup, but I don't know how to get things working in this setup.

Kind regards,

Marcel Severein

Action Script Question: Where Is The OnRelease Action In The Action Folders
I’m working on a project and I trying to make it when you click down on a button that click will send you to a point in the movie and then a symbol will play from there. I know that you need to pick the key with the button on it in the time line and then I know you need to pick the button that you would like to assign the GoToAndPlay statement on.

But what’s really messing with me is where in the heck the on release or the on mouse down statement is in the little action a book when are looking in the action window.

Any help would be much appreciated.

<form Method="get" Action="1"> In AS?
The eintire week, I'm looking at the same problem:
Im making a dynamic web server on a micrcontroller (so a microcontroller that watches several sensors and put their values on a website).
Its all very interesting, and most of it works.
The problem is that the micrcontroller doesnt have a normal "file system", so its hard to make the compiled c-code 'communicate' with the swf application.
I use the manufacurers TCPIP stack that handles most of the communication, but its all in HTML. Now, I know how to read values from the sensors, and let a swf-file draw charts from them, but the communication in the other way doesnt work yet (so returning values from the swf to the microcontroller).
the manufacturer says this works for HTML:
<html>
<body>
<form method="get" action="1">
Write to LCD:
<input type="text" name="3" size="16"></input>
<input type="submit" value="Write"></input>
</form><br>
</body>
</html>
And it does, because i tested it. Now my question is:
How can this be done in Action Script??
Please help and thank you in advance!

Frame Action To Call Tell Target (rather Than Button Action)?
I really need a frame to Tell Target a movie clip. For some reason, I can't get a Frame Action to work with Tell Target.

I have no problem applying the same Tell Target to a button, however. Am I missing something? Is Tell Target not meant for Frame Actions?

On(rollOver)action + On(release)action + Photo Transition
Okay, I'll try to describe what I want to do and probably just need help putting it together.

I have :

5 black & white photos -- all converted to MC's (bwimage1, bwimage2 etc)
5 color photos (same as b&w) -- all converted to MC's (image1,image2 etc)
5 buttons -- all converted to symbol-buttons (image1_btn, image2_btn etc)

I have the 5 buttons lined up vertically on the left side of the page. I have a spot on the right side of the page where I want the picture to be visible, the black&white version on (rollOver) and the color version on(release).

I know how to make just one of the photos appear on rollover or on release but I don't know how to change the photos from B&W to Color on the actions. I would like a transition between the photos from rollover to release (b&w to color) like a fade.

Any help is appreciated.

Assign Cursor Action To MovieClip Using OnRollOver Action?
Hi all

I have a cool component from FlashLoaded which lets me create brilliant 3d layouts with out much hassle. The componet uses the cursors to zoom in zoom out and pan left and right.

I dont want to have to put an explanation on the site, I would like to put some invisible mc's or buttons on the stage that when the user rolls over them with the mouse it triggers that action.

Is there a simple piece of code i can place on the buttons to make this happen?

Many thanks in advance
