Opening A HTML File In A Specific Frame
Hi all,

I have a frame based HTML file in which my SWF is displayed in the left frame. My SWF file has a button that simply, when clicked, displays a HTML file in the "rbottom" frame. Following is the code I used:

Code:
var a:String;
function aboutmeClicked(evt:MouseEvent):void {
var targetURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("resume.htm");
navigateToURL(targetURL, "rbottom");
}
aboutmeB.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,aboutmeClicked);
Unluckily, when the button is clicked at run-time, the "resume.htm" file is opened in a separate window rather than in the specified frame.

Any guideline is highly appreciated.

[F8] Opening Html Pop Up With Flash
Hello, I am trying to open a pop up window from flash into an htm page.
When the button is clicked the page pops open, minimises and closes in a matter of a second. This code is supposed to work but hasn't for me:

on (release)
{
getURL ("JavaScript: openWin('pic_view.htm', '620', '500')");
}
here is the js for the htm opening:

<script language="JavaScript">
function openWin(url, w, h)
{
var winprop = "width=" + w + ",height=" + h;
openwin = window.open(url,'',winprop);
}
</script>

If i just target an htm page without setting browser variables it works fine.
Any help appreciated.

Opening Html From Flash Navigation
I've got an HTML page, that contains 2 things:
1. flash navigation
2. normal html stuff - image, text, scrollbars, etc.

I have 4 buttons in the flash nav... music, shows, contact, links (it's an artist site)
My question is, how do I 'program' the navigation to not reload everytime I open a new page?
For each of the 4 html pages, music, shows, contact, links... I have the same flash navigation in it, so if you're at the home page, and click on 'music', it goes to the music page, but it also reloads the .swf.
What I want is for it to load the new html page, but also have the .swf keep it's place...

Opening Html Pages With Flash...
i'm designing a site that has flash pages and html pages... all of the pages (even the flash pages) have a html sub nav below the flash content... i was wondering if there is any way to have a link inside a flash movie load an html page into the current browser window (not into the area of the swf)...

so that the links on the flash pages don't have to open a separate browser window...

like loading into _self (if _self meant the actual html page not the swf area)...

does that make sense? and if it does... can it be done?

Opening The Browser Window In Flash Without The Frame Gaps.
Hello,

I'm once again stumped on a very simple, but now complicated code for javascript:window.open. I'm trying to launch the browser with the flash object embedded, but without that annoying space between the flash movie and the browser. To make a more clearer picture, let's say the movie is in a window size of 650x550. The movie is published at this size, but when I call for java to open it at this size it either doesn't fix correctly or I have this little gap in the window. I've tried everything to solve this,but I can't seem to get rid of it. Any suggestions would be greatful.

Flash Link Opening An Html Page

Opening An HTML File From A CD Through Flash Player
So I'm working on putting together an informational DVD (for a school) that has its content built as HTML files that the user will view in their web browser.

The person who had built it before me has it set up so that an exe file (exported from Flash as a projector) is launched when the disc is inserted, opening an swf. The user is instructed to click a button in the swf that then opens the HTML file on the disc.

This works fine in OS X and Vista, but I'm having a problem in XP. For some reason, when you click the SWF to open the html file (which just uses a basic getURL command), it opens a web browser like it is going to open the HTML file, but it never opens the HTML file. It just opens the browser with a blank page. Any ideas?

Opening A Scene In Flash With An HTML Link?
Hello all. New to the forum, good morning and such.

I am having a small issue getting this to work.

I want to click a standard old link on an HTML page and have it open a swf and go directly to a certain scene (or in this case a certain point on the timeline).

Is this possible? I'm guessing its Javascript but I'm at a loss at how to do this.

Any help would be grand. Much appreciated!

Thanks!

Opening Flash Links Into HTML Frames
Hello Everyone.

I am trying to create a Flash menu for my site that opens into an HTML frame. I have checked online to try and see how to get it to work, but nothing is working.

I have my action script set to open the links into the frame titled "main", but whenever I test it out, they open in a new window.

on (release) {
getURL("home.html", window="main");
}

I've also tried it without the "window=" part, but still nothing.

Can anyone help me out? Thanks so much!

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.

Opening Html File Inside A Flash Window?
How can I open an html file INSIDE a small window WITHIN a flash document.

My site is 100% flash, and within it, i want to open another website inside a small window in the middle of my flash site.

TO BE CLEAR: i don't want to separate my flash site from the html site i'm trying to open, I don't want to split the site into a top and a bottom... just trying to use a box in the middle of my Flash site to display some html content from the web.

Any ideas???? I'm stumped!

Opening Flash Presentation From Html Home Page Problem
Hello,
My flash presentation is finished. I designed a simple home page to check the users plugin and open the flash presentation. I added a behavior to a button to open the presentation (Dreamweaver): Link, window size, window name.

When I test the home page in Netscape, the new window opens fine. The presentation plays. When I test the link in IE 5.0 the presentation opens, the window contains scroll bars which give about 20 pixels vertically and horizontally. AND a third window opens with the home page at the same size as the flash presentation.

Questions:
Does anyone have any idea why the third window opens?
Should I create the link to my flash file directly or to an html page with the embedded flash file? It sould be noted that I am trying very hard to have the window open at a specific size.

Hope to hear from you,

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.

Opening A NEW Html Page From Flash In Opera - Simple GetURL Question
Hi!

I would like to solve the simplest problem I've ever met in Flahs, but I cannot succeed. It works in IE but not in Opera. However, I would like my webpage to work under Opera too.

I would like to open a new html page in my browser from Flash. So not embed an html page, nor use Javascript connenction or something - just make a hyperlink, as I would do in html (a href).

I write:

getURL("http://www.unideb.hu","_blank");

The IE works normally, opens the website of University of Debrecen in a new page.
While the Opera makes the following:

- opens a new window
- try to open a new webpage, but not the one I specified in the first parameter of the getURL method ("http://www.unideb.hu") - it adds the webserver name (the root directory, or what) as a prefix, and tries to open the address: "weboldalteszt.atw.hu///www.unideb.hu".
- meanwhile it shuts down the original page's Flash content, so I "lose" the original Flash page as well...

If you want, you can check it:

weboldalteszt.atw.hu
after the preloader click: "Magyar"
from the menus, choose "Linkek"
and click on the first blue "e" letter, in the first row

Normally, you should see the page: http://www.unideb.hu, as it works under IE.

Can anybody help to solve this very-very simple task - I hope I will be able to put a hyperlink on my Flash page under Opera - that shouldn't be so difficult :-)

Thanks in advance,

Alex

Opening Flash Movie In Html Window Exact Dimensions Of Movie?
Is there an extension or particular method to get this to happen perfectly.

I have been opening browser windows and setting the dimensions manually in behaviours to the same as the movie dimensions, but its never right. Its often bigger.

there must be a way to do this so that its the same as the flash movie size pretty much cross-browser - its ok...i hold no hope for Netscape

Thanks in advance,

Cesca

PS) Also, what happpens or whats the disadvantage of having a link open up the .swf (as opposed to it embedded in an html file)......sorry if the answer is clear and obvious...its just that on my local network it works so nicely

How would i do that?

what i mean is at this site:

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.

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!

Popup Not Opening From Frame In IE6
I'm having a problem opening a pop-up window from an HTML site within a frame, but only in IE6. I have a 2 framed window. One frame opens a site (eg, www.site1.com) that contains a flash interaction with a button that opens a pop-up window. I'm using the following getURL statement:
on (release){
getURL ("javascript:window.open('http://www.whatever.com','newwindow','width=640,height=48 0,top=0,left=0, scrollbars=1,resizable=1'); void(0);");
}

and the button opens a pop-up window when the site is viewed from outside the framework. However, when the site is viewed from within the frame nothing happens when I click on the button.

This is specific to IE6 - it works in Netscape 6 and 7, so I'm guessing its a problem to do with DOM. Any ideas how to resolve this?

Thanks
-Kim

Getting Off I-frame After Opening New Page
Hi guys, I have a problem with an i frame. I have an html page with a flash intro file embedded into it that is being loaded as an iframe on another page. The problem is that my actionscript on my last frame on the flash has a link to the "home page". But when the link executes it loads the home page but still within the iframe. So all my pages from the website load as i frames instead of loading the actual pages on the browser. Is there any way to load the home page off the i -frame? I wouldn't want to open a new blank page but just to open up the page in the same browser but not on that i frame I ahve. Anyone have any ideas??? Thanks in advance!!

GetURL Not Opening In Right Frame
Hi Guys, I have read previous posts regarding the subject but they all seem to come to a dead end. Due to "security" reasons flash player does not open Urls LOCALLY using the GetUrl instruction in no other frame than "_blank". I am trying to show a customer a site which hasn't yet been uploaded online and I get a bunch of new browser windows every time I click on a button. Have tried the AllowScriptAccess="always" (doesn't work), have tried renaming the mainFrame to another name (doesn´t work) and running out of ideas here.
Has anyone encountered a similar situation? How did you solve it? Thanks in advance..
