Flash :: Detect If Html Is Scrolled

Detect If Html Is Scrolled
hello all,
I am willing to make an effect of scrolling about 1000 pages in flash,
let me describe dad : I have a layout in flash that loads a text in particular font size, depending on detected screen resolution . What I have done so far is adjust the font size of the text depending on screen x resolution, to occupy double the height of screen x resolution (so dad if you would like to see the entire text, you need to scroll it down in a browser window....
Now, what I would like to achieve is : when user rolls down and reaches the "html" bottom of a site (I am counting only on users with mouse wheels)
flash starts to generate new texts for next about 100 "html pages" ...now , is it possibble to detect when user scrolls and reaches the end in html ? ??????????
well It could be detected in flash sure through listeners, but you can adjust the amount of lines per mouse wheel rotation in windows so I want to be precise ....
I hope you understand me....
cheers

Can A .swf Detect What HTML Page It's On?
I'm creating a Flash 4 menu for my website and was wondering how to use ActionScript to load variables from the HTML page.

I want to be able to create one menu file which changes it's on state depending on which page it's on... either by detecting the name of the page it's on or by calling to a variable on that page.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance.

Auto Detect Redirect To HTML
Hello,

I need help setting up a entrance page that will automatically redirect visitors that do not have Flash to my HTML site. Of course if the visitor has Flash it will play the Flash site. Btw, I have Flash 8 which has a detection switch but not sure how to use it for this.

A good example of what I'm trying to do is at sony.com. If you disable your flash plugin in the browser it (sony.com) will auto take you to the html site and inform you by placing a link at the bottom of the page that says "html site".

Thanks,

Detect Texfield Html Images Loaded
I have a text field in a clip being loaded into a scrollpane component.. easy enough..

I have text and images being loaded into that text field..

when the text is loaded the field thinks that it's done and then fires off a myScrollPane.invalidate() to rfresh the scroll bar to fit all of the text..

The problem: the Images load into the field after the textfield thinks it's done loading and updates the scrollpane component. I know you can target these images using the "id" attribute but is there a way to place a listener to detect an onLoad event or a loaded event for that id?

summary: Can I detect when textfield images are done loading. are there any built in events for this?

Detect When User Rolls Over Certain Text In Html Field?
I'd like to do a term/hint rollover kind of functionality. I have text from XML displaying in an HTML-formatted field, but I'm not sure how to flag a particular word for this. When creating a hyperlink in flash HTML fields, you can of course detect a lick of that link, but can you do anything about when a user rolls over it?

If that's not possible, what work-arounds might there be to simulate this effect?

I wonder about drawing an invisible clip over the word to which I can add a rollover listener. Doing this would require I know the coords that define a box around the word in the text field - is that possible?

Anybody having a tutorial on this ?
Thanks in advance !!!

PHP Variables Into Scrolled Textbox
In Flash 5 I can extract data from MySQL database and load it into a Flash 5 style scrolling text box via PHP:

// the variable initialised in PHP.......

$listText = " ";

// actions on frame in Flash movie clip.....

listText = " ";
loadVariables("getlist.php?" + (Math.random() * 1000000), this);
stop();

// textbox variable name....

listText

AND I can use the same script to load the same data into a Flash MX Component scrolling textbox and just name the text box so that the component works to allow the scroll.

BUT am I not meant to create a new "LoadVars()" object;

I've tried but with no success. So can anyone point me in the right direction as to how that bit of LoadVars script should look to pull in the $listText variable from the PHP and place in in my MX scrolling text box.

I know this is kind of basic but any scripting I've done apart from the flash 5 loadVariables way, just doesn't seem to want to work.

[F8] Determining If UIScrollBar 'has Scrolled'?
Hi All,

I have a UIScrollbar (named compScrollBar) attached to a dynamic text field (named txtTerms). txtTerms is basically 'terms and conditions' that a user is supposed to read and then press an 'agree' button before continuing.

My question is: Is there a way to determine if in fact the user has actually scrolled through ALL of the text before allowing them to press the 'agree' button?

Thanks!

[F8] Dynamic Scrolled Text?
Hi,

I want to make text scroll horizontally but not with buttons or frame animation. Kind of like a ticker that you see on CNN where text flows across the screen.

Does anyone know of a tutorial for this or has anyone done this?

Thanks in Adavance!

A Liquid Layout Which Also Can Be Scrolled
I am trying to create a flash site that utilizes a liquid layout, but also allows for vertical scrolling, something which I am not sure if it is possible. The code for the liquid layout that I am using is this one
http://www.tutorio.com/tutorial/liquid-flash-layout

Currently, such code creates this layout
http://www.tutorio.com/media/flash/liquid-demo.html

Obviously one of the key features of a liquid layout is that takes up as much or little browser real estate as you give it. However, I have found that when I create a liquid layout using this code for a flash site that is vertically longer than the browser window (such as vertically long body of text) the code does not allow you to scroll down. The liquid layout causes there to be no scroll bars in the browser.

I hope I have described my problem clearly. My question is; Is there code that would allow for the flash site to be liquid only horizontally, while VERTICALLY the flash site would be able to be scrolled.

Thank you for your help and consideration. I am using flash CS3.

Mouse Scrolled Image
I want to scroll an image with the mouse position, here's the code:

Code:
function onEnterFrame()
{
xpercent = _xmouse / Stage.width;
ypercent = _ymouse / Stage.height;
newXpos = startX - xpercent * scrollableX;
newYpos = startY - ypercent * scrollableY;
pic._x = pic._x + (newXpos - pic._x >> 2);
pic._y = pic._y + (newYpos - pic._y >> 2);
} // End of the function

var scrollableX = pic._width - Stage.width;
var scrollableY = pic._height - Stage.height;
var xpercent = 0;
var ypercent = 0;
var newXpos = 0;
var newYpos = 0;
var startX = pic._x;
var startY = pic._y;
It works good. The problem I can't resolve is when this movie is loaded into another (because I created a menu to load different images/swfs) the desired scrolled image doesn't stop when the mouse is positioned over the menu. As the limit is the stage I guess it is necessary to determine a limit modifying the actionscript (desirable) or with a movieclip in another layer but I don't know how to do it.

I found a good example but is complicated and confused.

Please help me

[F8]Page Goes To It's Top In Browser OnReleease (when It Is Scrolled Down)
Hi all. I have a small problem. On small resolutions, or even on high resolutions if the web page is really tall, the browser becomes scrollable. I saw on some web sites that on the bottom of the page, they have a button wich, when pressed, it scrolls the page up to the top. I suppose it's done with Java Script i'm no sure though. Does anybody have a code for that?

Links Are Invisible In Scrolled Masked Content Why?
Okay So i followed the tutorial for scrollable content that is masked. I found it on another thread posted by.. claudio?

Anyway, I followed all the steps and filled up my movie clip containing the images and buttons to be scrolled through.

The only problem is that the images show up, but the buttons are invisible! You can hover over them and see that they are links, but they're... well.. not there. I checked the alpha and it's not that.

Is there something I don't realize I can't do, or do I have to change something?

Anyone? I can post the .fla if I need to.

Form Fields Not Showing Up In Scrolled Movieclip
I am building a form that will exceed the height of the screen. I've adapted some code I found to work to make a scrolling form field movieclip. For the most part it is working. However, the form fields are not showing up. Here is a link to the form as it is now:

http://www.artntech.com/sample/scrollbar_flash8.html

Basically, I am masking a movieclip to control what part of it is visible and scrolling the whole thing with the scrollbar on the right.

The movieclip is called "main"

Here is the code:
Code:

bar.useHandCursor = dragger.useHandCursor=false;
space = 20;
friction = 0.9;
speed = 4;
y = dragger._y;
top = main._y;
bottom = main._y+mask_mc._height-main._height-space;
dragger.onPress = function() {
drag = true;
this.startDrag(false, this._x, this._parent.y, this._x, this._parent.y+this._parent.bar._height-this._height);
dragger.scrollEase();
};
dragger.onMouseUp = function() {
this.stopDrag();
drag = false;
};
bar.onPress = function() {
drag = true;
if (this._parent._ymouse>this._y+this._height-this._parent.dragger._height) {
   this._parent.dragger._y = this._parent._ymouse;
   this._parent.dragger._y = this._y+this._height-this._parent.dragger._height;
} else {
   this._parent.dragger._y = this._parent._ymouse;
}
dragger.scrollEase();
};
bar.onMouseUp = function() {
drag = false;
};
moveDragger = function (d) {
if ((dragger._y>=y+bar._height-dragger._height && d == 1) || (dragger._y<=y && d == -1)) {
   clearInterval(myInterval);
} else {
   dragger._y += d;
   dragger.scrollEase();
   updateAfterEvent();
}
};
up_btn.onPress = function() {
myInterval = setInterval(moveDragger, 18, -1);
};
down_btn.onPress = function() {
myInterval = setInterval(moveDragger, 18, 1);
};
up_btn.onMouseUp = down_btn.onMouseUp=function () {
clearInterval(myInterval);
};
MovieClip.prototype.scrollEase = function() {
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
   if (Math.abs(dy) == 0 && drag == false) {
      delete this.onEnterFrame;
   }
   r = (this._y-y)/(bar._height-this._height);
   dy = Math.round((((top-(top-bottom)*r)-main._y)/speed)*friction);
   main._y += dy;
};
};

Any ideas why the form fields are being masked? Any help appreciated.

Thanks

MX 2004- Text Cuts Off When Scrolled. Link Posted
I am using the scroll bar component. I have some action script that scales in the scroll box when a button (South America) is clicked.

Most of the text is displayed fine but when the scroll track hits the bottom of the scroll bar, it hits too soon and thus cuts off about 1/3 of the remaining text.

The wierd thing is that when South America is clicked again, the text in the scroll box is displayed just fine!!

Here is the link to my file

If anyone can help me, it would be so greatly appreciated!! Thanks so much!!

I have a MC with a text form with several input and combo boxes (flash <=> php) it as a scroll and it works fine, except when I put the MC under a mask.

Hi I've been testing out the V3 with thumbs scrolled .fla from this topic
http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthre...rolling+thumbs
well basically i've been trying to modify it to accept images for the thumbs as 80x80 not 40x40 no matter how much modding i try to do (and i'm crap at actionscript verymuch a newbie) i can only stretch all the 40x40 images and the 80x80 images are oversized for the buttons?

Cheers guys for any suggestions

Can Text Loaded From Variable Be Scrolled In A Dynamic Text Field ?
Simple problem here.

I put a dynamic text field on the stage. Added a scroll bar component and filled in the values in the parameter box. I typed lots of text directly into the text field, and it scrolled well. So far, so good.

Now I wanted to load that text from an external file, did the necessary action script und assigned the text to a variable, added this variable to the dynamic text field parameters.

Now the text field shows as much of the text as fits in it, but the text can not be scrolled any more. The rest of the text is just cut off.

Why the **** ???

And - can it be made scrollable somehow?

And if not - why the **** not ???

Center A Movie Contained In A Scrolled Movie On The Main Stage ?
please help, i am a designer not a programmer and yet sometimes i manage to addapt scripts to my needs but this time im really blocked.... in the main scene i have a script making a movie scroll from left to right upon mouse movement, the one I found in flashkit/tutorials called non button scroller... the movie scrolling is composed of several empty target movies in which separate swf are loaded... what i try to do is, while scrolling the entire movie from left to right as a menu, you click on a swf and it grows bigger and centers on the stage... so i made an invisible button over each movie and i added action script with function and 2 variables - the 1st to make it scale on _x and _y and position on _y, and with the second i try to tell it to center on _x , if when clicked it is on the left of the stage center it must go right and stop at the very center, or if it is on the right it must go left etc... the problem is it considers the _x values of the swf movie and not of the main stage and as the the entire menu is being scrolled left and right it never centers and sometimes disappears from the scene... can anybody tell me how to give it the main stage _x values? thanx !
