Newbie Needing Some Site Building Guidance - How To Structure A Site?
I need a little help - I am designing an art portfolio in Flash, and so I need it to be a site that has a few different pages that are linked between each other - you know, common sense. I really have no idea how to go about structuring that. I've been doing well at animations and buttons and ActionScript and all kinds of things in Flash, but I just don't understand how to make several pages that are part of the same document. Do you use scenes, or different "projects" within the document, or what? And then how do you link to them - just like it was any other URL?
I GUESS I mean, how do you design in Flash using a home page and then other pages to navigate to?

Help Finishing Up My First Flash Site - Using Navigation To Display Different Sections Of The Site?
Thanks for looking! i am making my first flash site, and im not sure what to do next in regards to navigating through the site. I have different sections, home, info, hardware, equipment, etc, but im not sure how to make each section appear when you click the corresponding navigation link. i have an idea but im not sure how to execute it.
Should i make a movie clip for each section (home, info, hardware, contact), then place each movie clip in its own frame on the main time line, and on each navigation link button (each one is a movie clip) use action script and put a gotoAndPlay() code with the frame number of the corresponding section? so when you click it, it goes to that frame which has the movie clip that has the content for that part of site, say contact, or info?? if so how can i do this?
that sounds really confusing and im sorry but please help out a beginner! Thank you and happy halloween!

Need To Retrieve Site URL (http Referrer) Of The Site My Flash Player Is Placed On
Hello All,
I am trying to implement a custom flash player where my embedded source code (<OBJECT></OBJECT>) can be placed on various websites. I would like to gather some information of the users who are using my flash player on their site. I wrote the following code inside the flash player to gather the site URL (http referrer) so I can send this piece of information back to my server.
javascript: if(null != document.all) {
window.document['adbVcmAd'].Movie += ('&site_url='+encodeURIComponent(document.URL));
}
else {
window.document['adbVcmAd'].setAttribute('src', window.document['adbVcmAd'].getAttribute('src')+'&site_url='+encodeURIComponent(document.URL));
}
void(0);
var sl = _root.site_url;
I am able to get the site URL in IE, but I cannot get the site URL from users using Fire Fox.
If anyone has any ideas, please post a reply or send me an email.
Much Appreciated!

Full Flash Site - Site Architecture Problem
Sorry for this post, but i'm really having trouble grasping the idea of multiple clips, transitions and the scripting to make it all happen.
I have been fiddling with flash for over 3 years now and should be alot farther along, I just wish i had spent as much time on flash as I have on Photoshop.
I now have my own domain, and want to make a fully flash site, as imageReady rollovers just don't get it for me anymore and I want to make a nice site with some impact...queue the flash guru's
The site i'm looking at and want to model as an experiment is www.desalledesigns.com
as far as I can tell, I need the following movie clips
1. transition (to include a preloader... close one content, preload scene, open next content)
2. content1
3. content2
4. content3
5. intro (actually would be a scene)
6. and so on.
is there a tutorial around that dives into this type of site organization?

Help-intro Not To Play If A Visitor Goes To Another Site And Then Comes Back To Site
Hi there!
I will have either a flashvideo sequence or flash animation playing as an introduction to flashsite. Now my client would like it to play that video only once and never again-that's not a problem. But what he also wants is that the video won't play if a visitor goes to another site and then comes back to his site in lets say 5 min. Also he would like to not have the video play if a visitor hits the refresh on their browser while visiting the site. Does anyone know how to solve this-I guess you would have to use some sort of javascript combined with actionscript? I'm kind of intermediate when it comes to actionscript and hardly knows any javascript... It would be very interesting to find out how this would work...

HTML Site Map Linking To Pages In Flash Site
Hey all,
There's a button in our flash template that is for a site map. To get better indexing results, we decided to have that button link to an html site map on our website, and then have the html links go back to the flash site. Is that plausible? How would one go about doing something like that, if it IS possible? If someone could give me a hand, that'd be great!
Thanks,
Jensey

Flash Site Versus HTML Site
My website is 100% Flash and my content is all Flash games.
I have read that having a Flash website is a disadvantage if you are trying to create a popular website and get a high Alexa ranking.
My Alexa rating is 13,000. But, I wonder if it could be higher with an html based site.
Do you think I should create my site in FrontPage or some html website builder?
Thanks.

PC And Mac Viewing Flash Site. Why Is There A Difference With My Site?
Hi,
I'm in the process of completing my first flash site. I thought it was going ok until I checked the site on a PC.
The swf (my site) doesnt appear to be the correct size (in pixels) on a PC but is fine on a Mac.
I have created a HTML page to hold the swf and I thought I had scripted the correct size into this but is there something I've missed?
If anyone has any suggestions as to how to solve my problem please let me know...

Flash Site ---> Site Created In DW Menu
And the journey continues.... Alright... I've settled on converting a flash site to a website menu. Thus far, I've deleted the portion that I don't need and have shrunk the height of the document. However, there is a nice little dot smack dab in the middle of the original document size. I've done a test run and it only shows that the top portion (which is what I want to convert too .swf and export into DW) is there and nothing else. But that little red dot has me concerned... sorta like it's a secret button that's gonna raise hell later on down the line. LoL!
Does anyone know what's going on w.that thing and if it is likely to cause problems? Also, do you know of any good tutorials on making a swf serve as a menu in DW?

I Have To Make A Site For A DJ. What Cool Effects Could I Add To The Site?
I do not have the site uploaded at the moment, but i am working on a DJ's website. (Known as DJK). He wants something similar to how the effect on http://www.meamusic.com/site.htm works but he doesnt want it exactly like that. He wants some kind of cool background lighting effects and such. I am not quite sure how might do this and make the website still run effectively and smoothly. I will upload the site once i get on my computer at home. Any ideas?

Time To Publish My First Site On The Web :-) But How Do I Align My Site ?
Hi there,
I'm trying to align my new site to the center of my web browser .I read that I would need to do it with Dreamweaver or that I could also do it in flash but it didn’t say how. I have Dreamwever so I could try to do it there, if the flash way is too complicated for a beginner like me.
If you know any simple tutorials about this subject or have the time to explain how to do it or even better upload a Dreamwever preset you wouldn't mind sharing with me, I would be extremely grateful.
Cheers,
Tokolosh

Swf Works At Local Site But Not On Web Site
This is a new post from a very newbie, but similar to a previous post from someone else that did not state a solution, just said it was working.
I am brand new at this and trying to include a simple SWF file (adventure_opening.swf ) in a web page at start-up. Using Dreamweaver to develop web page.
It works fine locally. FTP loaded to web site, main screen displays the error message
Line: 38
Char: 1
Error: object expected
Code: 0
Url: and my url address
Code starting line 38 is
AC_FL_RunContent( 'codebase','http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0','width','550','heigh t','400','hspace','250','src','adventure_opening', 'loop','false','quality','high','pluginspage','htt p://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer','movie','adventure_opening' ); //end AC code

Is there any special link or extra objects to load to the web site?
Does the fla code need to be on the web site?
Is there anything that needs to be done other than a straight FTP from local drive to web site?
Thanks for any help.

GetURL Works In Http://www.site.com But Not In Http://site.com
I'm using a getURL function to pass some querystring parameters which changes what content is displayed on the page. The function works correctly on the address 'http://www.site.com', but for 'http://site.com' there's no action at all aside from the cursor change. The two addresses are pointing to the same files. The function is as follows:
Attach Code
this.onRelease = function() {
getURL("http://www.site.com/Default.aspx?Region=1", "_self");
};

My Very First Site
Ok, so this is the first time I've actually tried to publish anything myself and I'm stuck. I'm a graphic designer so I'm spoiled and usually there is someone there to make the stuff I do actually work, but since this is my own personal site I'm on my own.
So this is what I think I know...Made my little Flash movies, published them using the Publish option which supposedly means I don't need to write any HTML right? And I've FTP'ed all my little HTML pages to my server, I doubled checked and they all look like they are there. So now what do I need to do? if I go to my page, I just get that Index page HTML texty thing....oh, and I named one of my movies "index" which I'm guessing is supposed to generate the index.html page that I need but I'm starting to think I'm wrong here. Help? Anyone? Please?

My Site Needs Help
I've thought about this and looked over my coding an don't know what's wrong. I'm relatively new at Flash, so the answer's probably obvious, but any input is appreciated!
Here's the problem:
My nav has several buttons. When clicked the buttons are supposed to load external swf files and play them. They have (main movie and externals) all been uploaded to the same directory (/images). In Flash, it works fine. On the flash Published files, it works fine. But, when I uploaded them to the site, it won't work. My code (from one of the buttons that targets an external swf) looks like this:
}
on(release){
loadmovienum(subnavmission.swf", 1);
}
the link for the site is: http://home.earthlink.net/~jrpz1982/
Let me know what you think of it while you're at it!

My First Site
I have finally just finished my first site in flash and am ready to publish. I have a few questions. Any partial or full response is greatly appreciated. First. When I tried exporting my movie as Flash 4 (it was built in 5) Its totally wacked. The buttons/actions are performing completely unexpected actions. Do many people have this experience? Is there anything I can do? The thought behind saving it as flash 4 is that that's the plugin I figured most people have. If I end up publishing it in Flash 5, can someone with a Flash 4 plugin be able to see it? and if so- should I expect that they would have all the same problems that I had when I exported in 4?
Sorry for the longwindedness!

Hello !
All I need is for someone to give me a break down on the creation process of the following:
I have a site...(woohoo)...first a preloader comes up, then an intro, the into then loads the main page. All secondary pages are quite graphically intese so I suppose I should put preloaders on them too other wise my first preloader would probably take a few days to load....anyway.
What I need to know is how?
1st Frame = put preloader?
2nd Frame = put Intro?
3rd Frame = Main start page?
and so on....

HELP ME WITH MY NEW SITE Please?
Hey, I'm a new member, but I've been using flash for about 2-3 months now so i've got the basics down.
what I've done is imported my completed flash banner and top-nav menu thingy into dreamweaver, the site content falls below in a table.
now, what i'm trying to do, (and what i need help with), is to have the content shrink and enlarge as the browser-window resizes.
I have already tried the auto-stretch functions built in to dreamweaver's tables, but what I'm trying to do is to have it resize just as http://www.Kirupa.com 's site does, in that the content goes in the center in a table, and the two sides scale with the browser windows.
that's what i'm trying to do anyway, so please anyhelp would be great!
ps. sorry about putting this in the FlashMx section, but there really wasn't another place to put it, and also sorry about my bad grammar
Thanks in advance for the help you fine people will surely give!

New Site
ok i found a cool site:
http://www4.tpgi.com.au/users/terorist/html/main.html
I want to replicate the nice menu bars that scroll on and off.
My version:
http://www.dekkershome.demon.co.uk
The problem is that i'm not coding it, when you roll-over a bar it moves the bar over and visa versa. If you move the mouse onto another bar before the original bar has finshed animating, they clog up. I need to find a way to reverse the animation while i can select other bars like in the original site.
can anyone help ?
I have attached my code
thanks
