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.

Any Way To Compensate For Scroll Bar In Top Frame, Not In Bottom Frame? Visit Here:
http://www.noquo.com/chromalogic

to see what I'm saying.

If the scroll bar appears in the top frame, it makes the tables jump left about 15 pixles to the left, making the bottom frame not line up anymore!

Is there a workaround for this!??

Cheers

Can't Target A Frame Label Or Frame Number Within Movie Clip
Hi guys,

Can't for the life of me figure out why this is not working:

if (_currentframe==82) {
homefade_mc.gotoAndPlay("fadeup");
design_mc.gotoAndPlay("design_fade"); - this one is fine
}

- the first gotoAndPlay should be going to the homefade mc and then going to the "fadeup" frame label and play from that, but instead it does nothing. Any clues?

Previous Frame Overlay..... Frame By Frame By Frame By Frame By Frame By.....
Hello there.

I am trying to create a small animation just as a little bit of fun. I would like to do it frame by frame.

I have a simple question to ask about frame by frame animation.

When drawing frame by frame, you would usually have a transparent overlay that you can compare with the next frame. Is there a way to do this in flash without having to copy the previous keyframe into a new keyframe on a new layer?

Thanks Emdiesse

Trying To Make Movie Play Frame X To Frame Y Then Switch To Frame Z..
Hello,

I was hoping someone could help me out with an issue I'm having. I have my flash on multiple scenes, and would like to play an animation when clicking on the navigation button before switching to a different scene.

I'm halfway to accomplishing this.

Here is what i used


Code:
_root.gotoAndPlay("changepage1");
_root.onEnterFrame=function(){
if(this._currentframe=="changepage2"){
gotoAndPlay("Home2",1);
}

}
The above code is on a blank keyframe. Changepage1 is the start of the animation and Changepage2 is the end of the animation.

Upon clicking the navigation button it plays the above scenes.

However it doesn't change scenes to scene "Home2".

Thank you in advance for all your replies.

Target Frame
Hey Everyone! I have a menu that I'm working on and I'm not too good at action scripting, but I'm learning. I had some help setting up the action script to config some links... now I need the links to target a frame. This is the coding for the HTML links:

eval('sub' add i).ver.htmlText = "<a href="" + _root.url4[i] +"">" +_root.sub4[i] + "</a>";

So where do I put the target="mainFrame" so it will change the main frame of my site?? Can anyone help me? Thanks!!

The .swf: left_side.swf

Target Frame
I've made a Flash button which uses, for testing purposes, the following for targeting the "content" named frame, in a Dreamweaver frameset, to load the Google site:

geturl ("http://www.google.com", "content")

Funny thing is: it only works when the site is uploaded and online. When I open index.html locally and click on the Flash Button, the "content" frame doesn't change to Google.com. However, when I use a local htm file to be loaded, e.g.:

geturl ("contact.htm", "content")

it works as it should work: contact.htm is loaded in the "content" frame.

Is this normal?

First I tried it by loading Google in a new window like this:
geturl ("http://www.google.com", "_blank") and that works fine. So I'm wondering why targeting named frames in Dreamweaver this way only works when all is uploaded...

my flash buttons are in a frame. I want to target another frame to replace content of that frame.

contest_btn.onRelease = function() {

}

it replaces the whole page with this page. It does not just replace the left frame with the contest.html as I am intending.

How do I do this?

How Do I Target A Frame Label
ok, after my preloaded the movie my main movie goes to frame 40 and stops. On that frame I have a movie clip that plays. we will call this movie CLIP1

When clip one reaches its last frame I want the root timeline to jump to frame 60 and stop.

I tried labeling frame 60 or the root timeline jump1

Now I set up an action on the last frame of CLIP1 as follows

with (root.jump1) {
gotoAndStop("Scene 1", "jump1");
}

IT gives me an error object not found.
How do I target a frame label rather than a movie clip instance?

GotoAndPlay To A Target Frame
I have a problem that has been stumping me for quite some time and I'm hoping one of you pros can shed some light for me.

I have a flash movie that is used as a navigation bar for my site. It works fine on it's own, but I also want to be able to control it from a different source. I simply want to be able to load the movie and start at a target frame based on the viewer choosing a region from a list elsewhere on my page. I am trying to accomplish this just by sending a URL variable when it's loaded. For example, the flash movie might be loaded like this:

navflash.swf?targetFrame=11

I have created a little debug text field in the movie that just shows the variable targetFrame. That text field shows the proper value based on the URL, so I know that the variable is getting passed correctly. The only values that actually get passed to it are 11, 31, 51, 71, 91, 111, 131 and 151 which are the start frames of the various parts of my navigation setup.

On frame 1 of my movie I have an action that is:
code: stop();
if (targetFrame>1) {gotoAndPlay(targetFrame);}This is where my problem starts. No matter what the value of targetFrame actually is, the movie jumps to frame 14. I have been able to verify this by changing my gotoAndPlay() to a gotoAndStop() and checking what the actual start frame looks like. After playing through a few frames, frame 28 has an action that tells the movie gotoAndPlay(1). Bizarrely, this time when it goes to frame 1, it properly executes the original gotoAndPlay(targetFrame) and goes to the correct frame. So the problem is that it is only executing the gotoAndPlay(targetFrame) properly when the movie jumps back to frame 1, but not when the movie first loads. I had a delete targetFrame command along with the gotoAndPlay(1) on frame 28, but deleted it during my troubleshooting. Once I figure this out, I plan on putting it back in so that the variable is deleted and an endless loop is prevented when it returns to frame one.

I have attached the original .fla file in a .zip. I hope somebody can shed some light on my problem. Thanks in advance.

-Pete

Telling A Target To Go To Certain Frame?
Goodday, here's my issue:

The following script tells a movie clip to become visible if the mouse is in a certain area.

// buttonPACK
prxTopbp = "86";
prxBottombp = "511";
prxLeftendbp = "288";
prxRightendbp = "680";
instancebp = "BPack";
if ((mousey<prxBottombp) and (mousex<prxRightendbp) and (mousey>prxTopbp) and (mousex>prxLeftendbp)) {
setProperty(instancebp, _visible, true);
} else {
setProperty(instancebp, _visible, false);
}


i would like to add an action to also tell 'instancebp' (or, 'BPack') to go to frame 15 in the movie clip of BPack when visibilit is true.

It sounds very simple but i could not get tell target to work for some reason

Thank-you

clip.x = XPos;

Target MC In Different Frame From Within AnotherMC
Hi everyone,

I am trying to target a label inside a movieclip that is not in the same frame, but further down the timeline - Flash doesnt seem to be capable of doing this.

My structure is like so:

There is a MC in _root. This MC contains 2 more MCs, one is in frame 1 (and called subMC1) the other one is in frame 10 (subMC2).

Insinde subMC1 i have a button with this script:


ActionScript Code:
on (release) {
_parent.subMC2.gotoAndStop("labelInTest")
    }


This doesnt work. When I put the subMC2 clip in the same frame as subMC1 it works fine (as expected).

I could now start and set variables and first jump to the right frame in the mother MC and according to the variable jump to the right spot in subMC2, but I just cant believe that there is no better solution

Do you have any idea what can be done or is there a workaround, or have I made a mistake?

The file can be downloaded here: www.gsdh.org/targetFrame.zip (11KB)

Thank you for your time and effort!

Tell Targets To Target A Frame Lable?
ok hi all,

i have a button MovieClip with the following code on it

=====================
on (release) {
tellTarget ("_level0") {
gotoAndPlay ("butName");
}
tellTarget ("/nav") {
gotoAndPlay (11);
}
}
=====================

Now "butName" is the variable name of a dynamic text field within the button movieClip.

The second Tell Target command works ok, but the first does not.

I am trying to tell the main timeline to gotoAndPlay the frame lable corresponding to the string variable within the button MC's dynamic textfield. So if i made the button textfield display "section2", then i want on release of the button for the main timeline to gotoAndPlay frame lable "section2"

I cant quite get this to work

any help would be greatly appreciated

thanks i advanvce
