Flash :: Adding Clicktags

ClickTags
Hello,

I am trying to place a clickTag inside a banner ad in CS3. I am writing this with an invisible button:

on(release){
getURL(clickTag, "_blank");
}

---------------------------------------

My question is, how do I embed the url? Should I also create a regular button and add the url? Actually seems like when I do that the button is not working either. I dont knwo any actionscripting so a simple and detailed answer is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for help.

Multiple ClickTAGs On A Single Button?
Hello..

Is it possible to put multiple clickTAGs on a single button?
Such as, if there is a banner ad (one swf file, one html file) loaded onto 3 separate pages, is there a way to track the clicks on each page separately? Or would i have to create 3 of the same banner ad and load them onto each page? What would be the best solution for this?

Please help..
any input will be appreciated. Thank you!

Flash Banner With Multiple ClickTAGs
I created a banner with multiple clickTAGs, each on a separate button. The webmaster doesn't know how to implement them. I've never worked with ad-serving software, so I don't know what to tell him. Any suggestions?

Thanks for any guidance,

I Am Adding A Child To The Stage, Adding An Event Listener To The Child. I Then Want
I'm trying to do something that seems like it should be really simple to do.

I am adding a child to the stage, adding an event listener to the child. I then want to remove the child from within the event listener.

ActionScript Code:
var newClip:NewClip = new NewClip();

addChild(newClip);

newClip.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, newClipListener);

public function newClipListener(event:Event) {
trace("test");
}

I've tried quite a few things and nothing seems to work. The only method I know that works looks like this, but it's stupid and cumbersome and i'm sure there is a better way

ActionScript Code:
var newClip:NewClip = new NewClip();

addChild(newClip);

newClipArray.push(newClip);

newClip.myID = newClipArray.length-1;

newClip.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, newClipListener);

public function newClipListener(event:Event) {

removeChild(newClipArray[event.target.myID]);

}

Adding Links On "Adding Thumbnails" Tutorial
I've stumbled across a very interesting tutorial, which helped me a lot.
http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/thumbnails.htm
But, I've noticed a little detail. When you click on the big image of the finished example on the first page of tutorial, it acts like a link. When I have downloaded finished .fla source, links are nicely written in the images.xml file, but the links in the .fla file don't work.
Please, tell me which AS code I have to add to my .fla file in order to activate links (and make them work properly).
Thanks.

Adding A Value If A Txt Box Is Between A + B
Ive got some actionscript that produces a figure between 0 and 100.
I need to add a figure to another text box depending in the initial figure.
I need to add 1 point if the value is between 0 and 5
2 point if the value is between 6 and 10
3 point if the value is between 11 and 15
4 point if the value is between 16 and 20
...etc.

This needs to be done in Flash 5,

Hope this makes sence

Cheers.

Adding 1
Hello!
I have solved my other little problem on here, but now stuck on another.
I think the answer is probably more straightforward than I am making it.

A user will click a button and I want it to count how many times it has been pressed.

I have a dynamic text box (num3 - it is called) and the code I wrote was something like......

on(release)
num3=num3+1
(with the appropriate punctuation!)

But all that that seems to do is go from 0 to 01 to 011 to 0111.
Why does it not go 0 to 1 to 2 to 3 to 4 etc?!

Please solve this little problem guys!!
Cheers

Adding Pop Ups
Hi all great site.
I am trying to edit a website flash file.
This is the website here.
The pages of this website are nested in the time line and on the FAQ page I need to put in 8 FAQ's, the problem is there is not enough room on the page for all the text, so I want to have pop ups similar to the one on the FAQ page (called "read more") that came with the template.
Now I could edit that one for to use as say faq 1 but I need 7 more.
What I have done so far is copied the button 7 times in the library and edited them (no behaviors yet) and I have copied the movie clip (pop up) 7 times as well ( I will edit the text on them too).
Now the only way I have seen to add more pop ups is to attach each movie clip to a key frame in a separate layer.
Now the problem there is the pages in this website are nested together just so if you click the icons at the top they will show that page, so I don't see how I could make another layer and attach the faq movies clips to key frames because when I do that all the pop ups show up on the last page (contacts) not the faq page.
The problem is I know exactly what I want to do, I just don't have the experience with flash yet to make it happen.
Any help I could get would be greatly appreciated.
The website is a gift from me to my sons daycare, for the wonderful work they are doing with my son.
Thanks again.

Adding Mp3
Hi all,

I'm a new Flash programmer learning the trade by helping my friend, a musician, with his personal website. He wants to have a couple of his songs on the site, but I can't find a way to add them so that the user can control the playback. I'm sure this is a really basic question, but again, I'm learning. Any help anyone can offer is greatly appreciated!

My question is this:

I have

1 input box

1 Dynamic text box

what I want to happen is:

when text is entered into the input box and the button is clicked a varible is passed into the Dynamic text box and breaks to the next line

so if I enter in "one" then "two" then "three"

the output would be

one
two
three

Is there a way to do this without duplicating a movie clip ?

Adding Music
I am totally new to Swish 2.0 and I have a music question.

Now, I have downloaded a song that is about 3 1/2 minutes long but I only need a the beginning of the song for the movie, which I have placed the pics and text accordingly so the movie and snippet end at the same place....

Problem:

I need an extra 10 seconds for the snippet of music I want to add. The song snippet goes to like frame 178 but when I add the music to the movie....the song snippet ends at like 167...I need the extra seconds for the song cause it ends right in the middle of the sentence and then the whole movie and music starts over.

I could snip the music a few seconds earlier but then I have a problem that it still ends at frame 167.

The song was downloaded as an MP3 file.

I have tried everything and I just can't seem to get the extra 10 seconds I need. Is there a trick to this?

Any help would be so appreciated. Thanks!

Adding Actions, Perhaps?
ok it breaks down like this...for simplicity sake

SCENE 1
Layer 1 - consists of a short, 20 frame movie that brings my graphic elements in.
Layer 2 - Portfolio button
Layer 3 - Client button
Layer 4 - Contact button

now...what i want to happen is when clicking any button, let's say the portfolio button, i want another movie to play that moves the elements around and will show the elements in the portfolio, and then the same type of action again when clicking on an portfolio element name and so on.

i cannot get the stinkin' button to play the next movie. i've tried adding a scene and putting the movie there and giving the button in the first movie the "go to (scene) and play". nothing. i feel like i've tried everything, but obviously i'm missing a big something.

any help would be GREATLY APPRECIATED! thanks!

Adding Variables
Hello. I have set up a quiz with 10 questions. Each question has a variable associated with it. The user answers a, b or c and the variable is set to 1, 2 or 3. I've set up a score_total variable that I want to keep track of the score number and then send them to 1 of three completion screens using an if statement. What I need help with is I can't figure out how to have score_total add and keep track of the numbers from the 10 variables.

The reason I'm not just keeping 1 score variable and adding to it is that the user needs to be able to go back to any question and re-answer it before they complete the quiz.

thanks in advance

Adding Up A Variable
This probably is quite simple but my mind is blank right now. I want to have a variable that when a certain button is clicked, it adds a unit of 1 to that variable. So it would start out at 0, and when the button is clicked it would go to 1, and so on.

Any help?

Adding A Return
how do you add a return in a textfield?
this is my code:
var = "hello there"

textfield.text = *hard return* + var

so i want the hello world to appear on the second line. what do i put for the *hard return* ?

Adding Variables?
On release of a button I want a new variable to be created by adding a "name"+["countvariable"]

Giving me for example
if countvariable = 4 it would generate a new variable name4 and the content of a input txt box would be the value

So "name"+["countvariable"]= "input box content"

Any suggestions???

cheers

Adding Values [or Something]
hullo peeps i'm new here, and new to action scripting, sort of. i've put a clock on my site, using this tutorial:

http://www.flashkit.com/tutorials/Ac...21/more5.shtml

just now, i've adapted it to show the date as well, but i've noticed that it takes january as month number 0, and so may becomes month number 4.

how can i rectify this? it should be pretty simple, right?

thanks in advance

Adding 2 Values
Hi Guys, man I feel like a real idiot asking this..

I was wondering if you could tell me why I can't add two values from 2 textfields? I'm using this code!

on(release){
resultbox=box1+box2;}

It works fine with minus or multiply! but it just adds the numbers together literally!! like 5+5 is 55.

Can you please help me?

Thanks!

Adding _y Restrictions
Iv got this object that follows the mouse and slows down.
this is the script..
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
trgt_x = _root._xmouse - _x;
_x = _x + (trgt_x/5);
}

whats the easiest way to add _y restrictions so the slider only moves in a given place.

Adding Variables
This is a simple question, but I need an answer fast.

How do I get the numbers displayed in my dynamic text box to add together. I'm using keypresses for input and keep getting something like 11 rather than 2. If someone could pass along a sample code I'd appreciate it. I know the answer is easy, just can't remember what it is.

Thanks!

Adding A Delay
I was wondering how i could add a delay in a for loop

i am making an 8x8 grid of squares that basically represent pixels. (kind of based on an experiment in Flash Math Creativity) when a button is pushed, i want to go through and change each pixel to on or off according to an array (length=64). But i want it to go pixel by pixel with a little sound effect with each one. Currently it just flies through the loop and does it.

My movie is like this.

Action on the first frame sets the pixels
count=1
for (i=0;i<8;i++) {
for (j=0;j<8;j++) {
duplicateMovieClip...
set _x
set _y
}
}

Then on a button I go through the two loops again

for (i=0;i<8;i++) {
for (j=0;j<8;j++) {
...check to see if the Array specifies that pixel to be on or off...

then, I want to put a little delay here but don't know how

}
}

I was thinking I might have to put this code in a
onClipEvent(enterFrame) and just lower the frame rate, but i don't know how to do that exactly.

Any help would be great. Thanks.
