Flash :: Html Control In MX?

+ Changing <embed Src> Name In Html To Control .swf Menu In Html +
Please view the following .swf first:

same main menu .swf file, main button highlight on 1, submenu highlight on 1
http://www.phs.com.tw/common/menu.swf?mn1=1&mn2=1

same main menu .swf file, main button highlight on 3, submenu highlight on 2
http://www.phs.com.tw/common/menu.swf?mn1=3&mn2=2

My question is how to set up the Flash files so I can simply add codes after the .swf file name to control the flash movie? This way when jump to different pages through out the html site with Flash menu on top, the main menu and sub menu will be highlighted according to its page. Earlier days without knowing how to do it, I have to use frames or even different .swf to achive this kind of effect, if anyone knows how to set this up, please let me know, thanks!!

Can Html Control A Swf?
Hello Flashers,

I would like to know, if it's possible to control a swf frame from another html (or swf) frame without using asp or php. Just the action: load variables.

I want to make a navagationbar (html or swf) to communicated with a another swf. So if you choose portfolio (or something) in the navagation (swf or html) frame, the swf frame will display a portfolio movie.

It's not my intention to use different swf's. Just one swf you can control.

Can somebody help me? I'm not used to work with variables.

Greetings from the netherlands,
Rednas

Control Swf From Other Swf In Different HTML Frame
Sorry to bother, it seem a stupid question, I have a page with 3 frames: top has a swf object in it, middle is plain HTML and the bottom frame has another swf in it. I want a button in one swf to control (nothing fancy, a play and stop command) a movieclip in the other swf. Both swfs are loaded as the page loads. Any reply welcome.

Control Flash From HTML
Hi all,

I've been trying to find a solution, but nothing seems possible. Here is the problem. I now I can use flash to give commands to the HTML page using Javascript (FSCommnad). Now I want to know if there is anyway to use HTML to give a command to the FLASH when an event happens.

I want to know if this is possible, and if yes, how?

If there is anything that I need to post to give you more information, just post.

Thanks in advance

How To Control An .swf In An Html Page
hi,
hoping someone can tell me how to solve this problem.
here's an overview of what I need to do:

I have 2 swf's in an html page, and I'd like to have the text in one swf control and play the other swf, when the text from the controler swf is rolled over.

both swf's live in the same folder on my site, and I don't know which function to use in the controller swf, and how to point to the other swf, to tell it, "on rollover, goto and play frame 5..."

thanks for any help you can provide.

Can You Control Another Swf If In Different Html Page?
Hi Everyone-

I am in the process of updating our website and have run into two problems. I was wondering if anyone can shed some light.

The scenario:
I have two main SWF files on

Envision which is the main one on level zero

Projects which is the second one that loads on level 2

There are 12 swfs (one for each project) that loads into a new popup page with this Javascript command

on (release) {getURL ("javascriptpenIT('sitemap.html', 160, 380, null, null, 'mywinname01')");
}

My sitemap also works with the above Java script.

Everything works fine BUT I cannot seem to figure out how I can target my envision.swf from my sitemap. The
reason I am targeting envision.swf is because there is where i have my actions to go to the specific pages when you click on the site map.

Can I control the envision.swf timeline from this new pop up window???
I tried _level 0 but that wont work because it thinks its targeting itself.

The second question I have is can preload those 12 swf project files in the background when you click on the projects.swf? Once again since they are on a new javascript window there are no levels that I can target so I cannot have them stop on frame one and load them onto different levels. I have read somewhere about empty movies clips and loading them in there. If i do that in my envision.swf then can i just have them somehow load into the empty swf so that they sit in the cache and then when the javascript is activated it will load up?

Here is the site address of the work in progress.
Beware its pretty messy since its still a work in progress.

http://www.envisionsite.com/beta/envision

anyhelp will be GREATLY appreciated.

How To Control Another Swf Within The SAME Html Page
ok guys, i've searched for 2 hours in this site and in flash but can't find a answer. i hope some of you can help with this. what i'm trying to do is very straight-forward:

- html page containing 2 tables, "table1" and "table2".

- each table contains a swf file, "swf1" and "swf2" respectively.

- "swf2" is set to stop initially, and i want to click on "swf1" so that "swf2" will start playing. how can i set the code in "swf1" so it sees "swf2" when placed in the same html page?

i've tried using the "loadmovie" command and tweaking with target and movie level settings, but they don't seem to work. i'm using dreamweaver mx, and tried labeling names to each of the swf files, and have the actual swf file call out that name. still to no avail.

can somebody please provide a sample code that enables one swf to detect and control another swf within the same html page? the two swfs are in the same directory.

MUCH THANKS in advance! *wipes sweat off forehead*

HTML Control Flash
Hi,

Here is the case I got few domains pointing to the same page
containing flash movie.. for example domain1 and domain2
I want to be able to when people access domain2
to tell flash to open "services" page instead of about us.

So I thought if I setup differenet html pages containing the same flash file - index.html and index2.html...
and when user accesses domain2 I can call and get index2.html page to send variable which flash movie can check (if(statement) and then open "services".

How can I get html to send variable to this flash movie ???
I can get it to play() stop() but sending variables didn't work ...

function PlayFlashMovie()
{
var flashMovie=getFlashMovieObject("main");
flashMovie.Stop(); // this works
flashMovie.myVariable = 2; //this variable doesn't get passed...

}

Or any other ideas how this can be done ?

Control SWF From HTML With Java?
Hello!

I've been searching around the site like crazy trying to figure this out, and I found a website that gave some instructions for it a couple of weeks ago, so I know it's possible (but now I can't find that, either!).

So I've got a website with a SWF in it, and I need to be able to put a command on buttons in the HTML file (not within the SWF) that will pause the SWF. I believe that what I saw before achieved this by using Java, but I'm not positive on that.

Can anyone help me out with this? I've been struggling with it all day, and really can't find anything that works.

Getting One .fla File To Control Another In The Same HTML Document

How Do I Control A Flash Movie In HTML
How do I control a flash movie in HTML in a different frame.

I understand I may need to do a little JavaScript, but I don’t really understand it, so could you tell me exactly what I need to put in and where...!

When a HTML page loads I want it to change the text in a dynamic text box within my flash movie

There are two ways in which I could do it:

1: Put the script into the HTML page, so when the html page loads it performs the action

2: Or if its easier, i would put another flash movie into that html page with code within the actionscript. If I were to do this, the actionscript I want to write is:

onClipEvent (enterFrame)
{tellTarget (mymovie.swf) urlpagename = "home";}

urlpagename being the name of the dynamic text box

But obviously that does not work

Help me please...!! I’ve been searching website after website all day and my head hurts!

Html Form Needs To Control SWF Loaded
Hi everyone

I have been looking all over for an answer to this. I found a few ideas that seem like they might work, but aren't very platform/browser compatible. I thought someone here might have the solution.

Here's what I need:

I need the user to be able to select from the form on the left side of the screen and have that selection swap the SWF file which is loaded to the right.

Restrictions are:
1.The left form field cannot be in a SWF. It must be html. (I know how simple this would be if the whole page could be Flash)
2. I can't use frames.
3. I need it to be as platform/browser compatible as possible. I understand whatever the solution is might not work for older browsers, but I really can't have a big general kind of problem like - it wouldn't work on IE on a Mac at all.

It seems like it must have a simple solution, but I can't seem to find it. I apologize in advance if it has already been answered, I did search the forums already though.

Much thanks to anyone that can help!!!

HTML Able To Control Flash Menu?
I would like to have a flash menu, with sub sections to each link. And have that menu embedded on an HTML page.

Generally, when a link is clicked on the flash menu, and you go the the selected page, the Flash menu "refreshes" .

I am wondering if there is some kind of way to have the HTML page have coding or a language, or something, to be able to control the Flash menu...to have it be at a specific frame (in flash), or to use more ActionScripting, to have the Flash menu be "open" to the sub section of the specific link that the HTML page is on.

Does that make sense?

Control Flash5 SWF With HTML/Javascript?
I have a menu that I'd like to use on everypage of my site - and thought it would be nice to have just one swf file and use html or javascript to tell the menu to go to a certain frame. For example, if they are on a Bee Story page, then the bee-story button in the menu would be highlighted and non-linking. Then on an Apple Story page, the Apple story button would be highlighted and non-linking. So basically, I would have a SWF with 10 frames, each frame highlighting a different button that I could then call with my html page.

Any way to do this? Basically, I want to use the html page to call a certain frame for each story.

For example, I have a website developed fully in flash but would like the background image of the html page holding the site to change when the user moves from one area to another. Is this possible?

Alternatively I was thinking it may be possible to place a flash file which fits to 100% in the browser window and import another swf into this file which retains it's scale (in my case 600 x 800). I'm going to experiment with this second option but if there is a simple way of doing this which I do not know about could someone point me in the right direction? Cheers.
