Flash :: Html Frame?

How Do I Connect Flash Menu (top Frame) To HTML Pages (bottom Frame)?
Hi,

I am new to flash/swish...

How do I connect the Flash menu system that I set up in Swish that will be embedded in the TOP frame to the standard HTML pages to be selected in the BOTTOM frame?

FYI: I am using Frontpage 2000 to create the frames and standard HTML pages

I can create the HTML page containing the Swish/Flash menu- no problem there. I just don't see the connection between the two. WHat's glueing them together. Is this accomplished with hyperlinks within FrontPage OR is this done from the Swish side and then seen by FrontPage after it is embedded?

Thanks to all who reply.

All the best.

getURL("about.htm", "bottomFrame");
It works, but instead of loading the "about.html" file into the "bottomFrame", it opens it in a new window; regardles of browser.

Funny thing is, this file worked perfectly about 4 months ago, and now its cactus. Anyone?

HTML Code In Flash To Load An HTML Page In A Frame
Hello.

I have an existing website built in html, with three frames. One on the top for the banner, one on the left for navigation, and a larger window to the right of the navigation for the main content. I want to replace the content in my navgation frame with a flash built navgation menu, and when my menu items are selected, it will load a new page in the content frame.

I currently have this working fine in html. I can make my buttons link to a URL no problem in flash, but how do I tell it to load the content into the other frame? I haven't started this process yet, and figured I'd ask first to get any ideas.

Thanks.

Printing A Certain Frame With Html
I am having a problem with using flash animation within a html document. The probelm is that when you print the html page, the flash prints out the first frame of the animation. Since my animation starts out as blank there is nothing there to print. Is there a way to have flash print the last frame of the animation as well as print out the rest of the html page as well? I know you can print the flash movie itself on certain frames, but that would ruin the whole page layout. Also, most people go to the file menu to print not within flash.

Here is the example I am talking about:

Any help would be much appreciated.

Change A HTML Frame
Hi all,

Lets assume you have a Frameset (html) and in Frame 1 there's the swf embedded and in Frame 2 theres a simple blank html page.

Is there any way to change the 2nd frame where the blank html page resides via Flash (I.e. call another html page into that 2nd frame)?

I basically want to load some sort of banner ad into that second frame as soon as the flash movie has finished loading.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Jumpto Certain Frame From HTML
I am creating a custom map of our university. I would like to place a link throughout our website that says "locate building on map" - when the user clicks the link, the pop-up window opens my flash movie of the university and goes to the frame that animates/highlights the building in question.

So, I want to make a flash movie that has all of the buildings animated at different frames and THEN based on the html link my users click, the movie opens and jumps right to THAT frame...

How can I do this??

Html Frame In Flash
Hey all,

Basically I'm trying to do something much further beyond the knowledge I have now. (best way to learn right?) Anyways, I was wondering if you can set up something in flash where a MC would act like a frame on an html page that could load in other html content. I tried using the getURL command on an MC but it just loaded the url in the browser which I was figuring it would do. Any ideas? Let me know.

Jumping To A Specified Frame From Html
hey all,

Im trying to do the following!!!

From a link in html,
i need to send some sort of information (guessuing through javascript)
to my flash file, telling it to load the movie, and goto the frame which is syncronised by each link!

eg.

im on a retail page called "cigars r us"
I click the button called "map"

it then needs to open up my flash file, let it pre-load, then jump to scene 3 frame 33, because its the 33rd store for example!

i dont want it to show any other frame but this one!

is this possible?
how could i do it?
can some one help me write a script!

Thanks very much!

Ive not no idea where to start, remenbering there is a preloader (scene-1)

there is a list of linked store names
(scene-2)

about 50 frames, each frame being an individual highlighted store.
<scene-3)

can anyone help??

Call Frame In MC From Html
I have a site that is a mixture of html and Flash.

There are seven menu selections. Each page has its own Flash heading that contains the menu choices.

The home page holds the main MC. The main MC contains clips that correlate to three of the menu selections with the other four menu selections all html pages.

Let's say someone is on html page "B" that has a Flash menu. They select one of the menu options that corresponds to a clip in the main MC located on the home page. I cannot figure out how to load the home page and goto a certain frame in the main MC that contains the clip associated with the menu selection made on page "B".

This is probably really confusing and no one will understand what I'm trying to do or maybe it simply can’t be done.

Any comments will be appreciated.

Controlling Frame Changes From HTML?
Here's the question plain and simple...Can you open a flash movie from an Html page AND have that same HTML link tell the Flash movie to start on a certain frame?

----------------------------------------------
Now some more details about my situation (just in case they're needed):

Project (6-Unit Tutorial):
1)HTML Intro page with text links for each unit.
2)SWF Tutorial containing all 6 units...the tutorial itself is one big SWF file.

What I want is that when you click, for example, "Click here for Unit 3" on the HTML intro page, the flash movie loads up right at Unit 3.
----------------------------------------------

Is this possible? Please let me know.

Thanks in advance!

HTML To Specific SWF Frame?
So im working on a website that contains both flash and HTML. All is well except for a few simple glitches. The flash portion is a media player. It contains MP3's, a photo gallery, and (in the near future) a video gallery.

Is there a way that I can send my viewers to a specific frame in my swf file? I rather not make duplicate instances of the media player, unless I absolutely need to.

Thanks in advance...

HTML Frame With Swf Inside
Hi,
My swf is embeded in a html document named index.html. I have 3 domains, but one of them (let's name it "domain_3") generates frame with my html page inside.

There are 2 levels inside my swf: level0 is for main content and level1 with menu inside. There are few buttons in my menu. Buttons change content at level0 in this way:

Code:
//contact button level1 (my menu) code:
on (release) {
_level0.gotoAndStop("contact");
}

Everything works fine with domain_1 and domain_2, but after i go to domain_3 and try click on any of menu buttons, content at level0 doesn't change. Could You tell me why?

sorry for my english ;-)

Controlling Swf From Another Swf In A Different Html Frame
Hi,

I have a html page with two frames. In each frame there is a swf (swf_top and swf_bottm). I have a question. How can i press a button in swf_top (which is in the upper frame of the html) and by pressing it tell swf_bottom (which is in the lower frame of the html) to go to frame 6 and stop ?

There is the option of the "passing variables" , but if i pass it over, do i have to put a lister of some sort to identify when a variable is taken in by the lower swf ?

can anyone help ?

How To Go To A Particular Frame On A Another Html Page
Hi,

I will be very very grateful if someone can help me with this one:

I'm trying to have my button bring me to an html page at a particular frame.

I've tried the following but it only brings to the beginning of the page, not to the frame called "portfolio". Any suggestions??

Here is my script:

var linkport:URLRequest = new URLRequest("index.html");

portfolio1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onPortClick);

function onPortClick(event:MouseEvent):void
{
navigateToURL(linkport);
gotoAndPlay("portfolio");
}

Thanks!

Targeting A Frame In HTML
OK, I've come up with this idea to use 2 frames in my HTML document. The top would contain my Flash movie and the bottom wwould contain some loooooong text passages that my client wants. My question is:

how would I target a specefic frame on an HTML page? Would I use getURL if I wanted to target the bottom frame when my Flash is in the top frame? Thanks for any suggestions.

GetUrl In A Different HTML Frame
Hi, I've seen questions like this one, but no answer...
I have a HTML page with 2 frames: name="topframe" and name="otherframe".
I have a flash menu in the topframe, and I want my buttons to load different pages in the "otherframe".

So it's not in the "_self", nor "_blank".

I tried :
getURL("testpage.htm" , "otherframe");
getURL("testpage.htm" , "_otherframe");
getURL("testpage.htm" , otherframe);
getURL("testpage.htm" , "_parent");
getURL("testpage.htm" , "_self");

There is NO spelling mistake, and Actionscript works, cause it all opens the testpage in a blank window. (and the "_self" works correctly, so I'm so close, but I just want it in the other frame!)

Any Idea?

XML To Flash To HTML Frame?
Ok, here's my problem/challenge

I'm developing a site that uses a Flash menu for navigation.
The Flash menu gets all it's content from an XML file.
But now I want Flash to use the XML content, and set up a page in the frame with links.

Why do I want this??

Basically my client wants a page that they can update themselves, so if you have 1 XML editor, 1 smart Flash application that can parse XML, and 1 MS Word template to export HTML content for the Frame, then they can keep the website updated themselves!
