Making A Script/.exe File Work For Both Mac And Windows? HELP
Hi. Here's what I'm doing. I'm making a cd using a projector file that accesses a script/.exe file that will open word documents, powerpoint files, html files, etc. How do you create a script for that works on both mac and windows? I figured out how to use the full screen command to open the file, but not I just need to know how to create a script that will work for both platforms. I use a mac and make scripts in Applescript that can be saved as an application, but as of yet, no dice on it working on a windows system, too. thanks!

Making An AVI File Work Across Scenes...
After my previous post, I've imported an avi video file that will sync with it's own sound (hoorah), but as I need the sound to play across the entire movie (14 scenes after the initial video scene), I was hoping to be able to hide the video and continue with the sound through each scene, but if I paste the last frame of the movie scene into the next scene it wants to start the video all over again (the video is in a symbol).
Any thoughts?
Should I rebuild the whole movie from scratch?!

Making Windows From Left To Right
Hello everyone,
I'm in the process of learning flash and want to make an interactive user interface for a cell phone. I have imported a cell phone image (bmp) and I have made the interfaces in illustrator. I want one of my vector images to move from left to right as if it was inside the screen i.e. so that when I start the demo I just see a part of the image on the left and then it moves to the right (without the image to be displayed on top of the phone). How can I do this?
Thanks.

Making Buttons Link To Pop Up Browser Windows In ActionScript 3
I am trying to figure out how to make buttons on my flash file link to URLs that appear in a window of fixed dimensions (with scroller bars) next to my Flash window.
I am aware that Adobe has instructions for creating pop-up browser windows through Flash (http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14192)
However, what I'm trying to do is a bit more complicated, since I want to have multiple embedded invisible buttons in the Flash window that each take you to a specific URL when you click on them. Alternatively I'd be happy if any button click resulted in a link to a random selection from a pre-programmed list of URLs.
Any suggestions? This is for ActionScript 3.
Making Buttons Link To Pop Up Browser Windows In ActionScript 3
A week or so ago I posted this message and the solution suggested didn't work, so I thought I'd try again to see if anyone else was able to pitch in:
I am trying to figure out how to make multiple embedded invisible buttons on my Flash file that EACH link to specific URLs that appear in a window of fixed dimensions (with frames) next to my Flash window, when you click on them.
I am aware that Adobe has instructions for creating pop-up browser windows through Flash (http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14192) and I have repeatedly tried navigateToURL without success--the trouble with this method is that it navigates away from my Flash window and I do not want this. Instead, I want these windows to be contained by Flash, so that the viewer can see both my Flash project window and the URL window (in frames) at the same time in the same browser window (not a new tab/window).
Is this possible? This is for ActionScript 3.
Making Windows Style Close And Minimize Buttons
Hi

Thanx Chrissie
Launch Windows File Browser For Jpeg File Import To Flash?
I would like for the users of my interactive piece to be able to click on a button which says, 'import file'. This would launch the usual windows open file browser window to appear. Then the user could import an image file. This file would load into a holder movie clip and then would stretch or shrink to fit into a size of my choosing, i.e. 400 x 300. Is this possible? I imagine it might be using flash to call some javascript but I could use some advice.
Thanks
Does This Work On Windows?
Hey guys,
-Not sure if this is to be posted here but it is Flash based-
I've created this Flash only website using a Mac. It loads fine every time when it's loaded from the machine. When I load it from the server I get "1 error when loading" about every other time (zero byte resource error). Also, I don't have a Windows machine to test with so I don't know whether it works there or not.
So, questions:
1: Is the error Flash related or server related?
2: Does it load using Windows?
Thanks.

Why Would Projector Work In Mac Not Windows
I made a simple Projector in Mac OSX and published as a windows .exe Projector and a Mac projector.
All it has is a button that opens a window .
The window can be dragged, minimized, maximized and closed all from buttons on the window.
The problem is it works on my Mac but not all windows PC's.
Some, just not all.
The one it doesn't work on opens the Projector but the button doesn't open the window when clicked.
Any ideas?

Pop Up Windows No Longer Work
I am using Flash MX 2004 and I have downloaded and installed the new Flash 8 plugin. Since doing so my pop windows no longer function. I used the code found here: http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash5/newwindow.htm and even their online example does not work with the Flash 8 plugin.
Is there a solution to this? I want to keep the Flash 8 plugin for it's new security features. Any help would be appreciated

GetURL Does Not Work In IE6 On Windows XP
Hi there,
I have a flash movie with with thumbnails using
Code:
on (release) {
getURL("javascript:MM_openBrWindow('showroom_1.html','popWindow','width=490,height=490,toolbar=no,location=no,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no')");
}
to launch a pop-up window.
I have made this site with Flash MX on Mac. This works fine on Mac but when I tested it with IE6 on Windows XP I get "URL not found" message in the same window without any pop-up window. This sound like the browser concerned is not reading javascript within the function. Does anyone know how to correct this?

Making Flash Open Windows Media Player And Close After The Movie Has Played
Hello People.
I'm stuck on this, and really need help fast as it's to be in today.
I've made a presentation that if left will start cycling automatically through my work. The only problem is, is that it needs to play my AVI at the end.
I can't import the AVI into Flash because it's 40Megs, and Flash just can't handle the sound and images at the same time.
Is there anyway of getting Flash to open up Windows Media Player, playing the movie then closing it down again?
At the moment I'm using the geturl to open a webpage with the video in it, but this sticks it shrunk at the side of the window and you have to click to maximise it. Which kinda runs the automaticness of it.
Can any of you help.? I need help quickly.
Cheers u guys.

Swf Doesn't Work In IE6 On Windows 2000

Can Flash Work With Windows Audio Recorder?
Does anyone know a way to get flash to work with that audio recorder application that comes with windows? I've seen this done with authorware and I'm wondering if it can be done with flash. We train call center reps, and I'd love to create a feature where learners can record their voices and compare that with a correct call. It will need the standard play pause stop and record buttons. No saving is needed. If anyone can point me in the right direction or tell me how to do it, that would be great.

Sessions = Amfphp Class = DOES NOT WORK IN WINDOWS IE
hello,
I've encountered a very strange problem that only occurs one Internet Explorer on Windows.
I have a pretty intense program that uses amfphp remoting w/ actionscript 2.0. The program works great in all newer browsers, on most platforms except windows IE. The problem arrises when I call start_session w/in the class definition in my amfphp class.
for example:
class swf_db_interface
{
var $sess_data = array();
function swf_db_interface()
{
$this->methodTable = array
(
"get_segments" => array
(sessions = amfphp class = DOES NOT WORK IN WINDOWS IE
"description" => "Returns segments table",
"access" => "remote",
"arguments" => array('con_id' , 'code_sets_str' ) /**/
)
);
#---- get session login info ----
session_start(); //NOTE: if this section is commented out
$this->sess_data = $_SESSION; // it works flawlessly in windows IE
#--------------------------------
}
As you can see, calling session_start() causes all remoting calls to fail in Windows IE.
Very strange.

Making My Button Work?
In an earlier post I was trying to make my Tweens stop looping so I could add a button. I added a layer and went to my last frame, created a new key frame and then made an action to "stop". I then created a new keyframe on the layer of my tween, created a button, went into my button and added my "over", "down" & "hit" keyframes. But now when I test my movie, not only does it stop at the end of my tween my button doesn't show up. Why could this be??????

Bug Not Making Movie Work?
I found that my flash movie sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. If the site viewer has flash5 player the movie will not fully load and remain stuck on the first frame.
I made my flash site using flashmx and if I publish it for a flash5 player I get links and buttons that wont work so I have to publish it as a flash6 player. But like I said earlier, if someone comes along to view the site with a flash5 player, the site wont work for them.But if you have flash6 player it works 100% fine.
Is this a bug with flash mx/flash 5 or is there a work around.
Can any one shed some light on this subject?
Thanks.

Making Buttons Work Help PLZ
Hey, i'm 14 years old and I am new to flash so don't yell at me for asking stupid stuff and I already know some of the stuff to make a flash movie but what I don't know is how to make a button actually work. I made a button in one of my flash movies and I converted it to a button. What I am stuck on is how to get from one part of my movie to another by clicking the button. I know how to set it by going to Actions and then goto and play and setting the frame number but I don't know how to make that frame after my whole movie is finished. In other words what I'm trying to say is this:
-I made a movie upto frame 210
- then I set the loop off over there so it doesn't repeat the movie after it finishes.
- now my button is on frame 210 and I would like it to go to a completely new frame after 210 just like any button on a flash site.
How do I do this? Can anyone please help me? I need this done soon for my video game clan website. THank you
Please Help With Making Buttons Work
Please can anyone help as I'm fast running out of ideas. I'm working on a really important site that is going live in a couple of days and I can't seem to get some buttons working.
Basically, I have some buttons in a Flash movie which is located in the Main Frame of a 2 frame site. The buttons have the following actionscript assigned to them (with the page name changing obviously):
on (release) {
getURL("aboutus.htm", "mainFrame");
}
The whole site works perfectly on my Apple Mac but when I test the buttons on the Flash part of the site on my PC Internet Explorer either sits there doing nothing or I get a 'Page not found' error! As most people who view this site will be using PCs I need it to work on one.
If you want to see what's happening go to www.testarea1.fernonline.net/srt
I have tested it on a friends PC and it does the same thing so it can't just be my computer. The only other thing I can think of is that as I'm testing the site I've put it in a folder, one down from the root directory rather than straight into the root directory as I normally would - could this cause a problem?
Making Droptarget Work
Could anyone send me a fie with a slider and some drop targets under it?

There are up to Eight positions on each slider (3 sliders) so perhaps an array?

Making Cities Work On Map
click the 'techno almanac' page to see how this works so far...
http://funkshun-us.tonaleclipse.com/...lash/index.htm
I have two issues that I cant resolve...
-----------------
ex. i rollOver boston
how do i get the toolTip to pop up over boston_mc and only boston_mc?
in my main timeline i have nine continent_mc's which contain a city_mc for each different city.
inside of the city_mc is a transparent button that controls the color of the cities, sounds, actions, etc...
if i put the toolTip within the city_mc, when i roll over any city a toolTip pops up on every other city...
if i try to put it in the continent_mc -- id have to put as many instances of toolTip as i have cities, which i think would increase file size-- but nevertheless, i cant get it to work that way either
-----------------------
problem two which i think is related....
i first click on atlanta then i click on miami
i cant figure out how to get atlanta_mc to gotoAndStop(State_3) when i click on a miami_mc...
this would turn every previously clicked on city in the current session to red...
i think it has something to do with the trasparent button inside of miami_mc and the _name & _parent.name
please help, im going nutz

Making Sure This Timer Will Work:
I've searched for timers and wonder if this is possible easily:
I am in the middle of designing a simple game but I now require a 2minute timer. This will countdown and at the end it will note the score.
Then the timer will restart at 2minutes but this time set a target score which would be the previous score+1.
Can someone provide some idea of how this could be accomplished, the main problem is where would any such code for a timer go? In the frame or on a movieclip (if so which one?) etc. I've looked at various tutorials only to be further confused.
Anyway I found a simple idea here:

And posted this same question on there but don't know if anyone will check it, Apologies if you checked both.

Making Scenes Work Together
I'm using Flash 8 and I have multiple scenes. The scenes all work fine on thier own, but when I link from one to another, stuff starts acting up. Mainly, I have buttons inside a scrollpane that link to frames in their own scenes. They work when I test just that scene, but they don't work if I test the movie and go to those scenes. So I'm guessing this is some kind of path problem, but I'm not sure. This is what I'm using for the links that are in the scrollpane:
on (press) {
_parent._parent.gotoAndStop(1);
}
Or if I give up on scenes, what's the best way to grab all the layers in a scene and everything on them and move it all to the beginning of another scene? Or how do I put everything from a scene into a movieclip?
A Big Idea, But Need Some Help Making It Work
Hey guys!
I'm new to Flash, but I'm determined to learn it so I can create a site I have in my head. I was hoping you guys could steer me in the right direction!
Ok, well, I want to take this: http://zeldacurio.com/0verture/creation.html and improve it with flash.
I want the stars to twinkle and the constellations to be the navigation, I just want there to be more of them, so that would require the sky to rotate, and I'd need to be able to possibly speed it up if you put your mouse at the sides, so you don't ahve to wait for the navigation link you want to roll around. Does that sound right?
I'd like to make it more alive, with his hat blowing gently and possibly other activity in teh back, but that can wait.
So, some questions:
1. Can I import files of the constellations, or will I have to make them in Flash?
2. How would I go about scripting the sky?
3. How about the character, if I just want to make his hat move how do I go about that?
I am so sorry for asking all this, I'm very eager to learn more about Flash so I can make it work! I'm using Flash MX 2004. I hope I ahven't asked too much >_<

[F8] Making Old AS Work In Flash 8
I have this scroll bar effect that i'm failry certain that i got from this site quite some time ago trouble is i'm currently trying to use it on a new site but because i'm doing it in flash 8 the code doesn't sseem to work any more
it works fine if if set to publish in flash 6 but i'm using some of the blur effects etc in flash 8 so thats not an option i'm guessing there is something in the code that stops it from working in flash 8
any of you gurus out there able to spot what it is thats stopping this running ?
Making A Menu Work
Hey guys, this is the first time I'm going to be creating a menu. I know how to do the movements and whatnot .. I just don't have the action scripting down yet which I believe would make the menu work properly.
When I make the intro and it goes straight to the menu, how do you make it stop looping after the menu comes up ? And how do I make the Text or Images into links ?
