Visited Link In Flash?
Is there a way to create what is known as a visited link in html, in flash? For example, I have some rollover text links(buttons) that I have created...which are green, and when you roll over them, they are red. Is there a way to keep the rollover red when it is clicked on? Then when another rollover/link is clicked, that would stay red and the other would go back to green? I have the rollovers made, I just was wondering about this visited link stuff. Thanks!

[F8] Visited Link Setting..
Hello All,

I am working on some navigation. I would like to be able to change the color of the text on a button to indicate that
1. this where you are
2. it is disabled so you can't click it while in the same area
3. When you click away from that area the color goes back to normal.

Any thoughts? Thanks

Visited Link In Flash ?
Hello.

I thank you for all the help you can provide.

Visited Link And Loadmovie Problems
This is probably a simple error in my code. Can someone check? I set up a movieclip that holds a button with an onstate and an offstate (p1_link) and then added a loadmovie script (p1.swf).

The movieclip is a navigation button that underlines (visited) on rollover and stays that way.

The loadmovie code loads a .swf. on the same page.

Can I get the button/movieclip to activate both?

With the code below I can get the rollover button to work but the .swf will not load. The .swf will load if I remove the rollover code. Any ideas?

on (rollover) {
_root.p1_link.gotoAndStop(2);
}
on (release) {
loadhere.loadMovie("p1.swf");
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (_level1._width>0) {
_level1._x = 100;
_level1._y = 200;
delete this.onEnterFrame;
}
};
}

Thanks, H

Visited Marker That Appears Next To A Link
I have seen an effect done with Flash, but I am unsure how it is done.

Effect description:

The Flash movie begins by displaying a short list of individual links where it pauses.
Each of these links in the list when clicked, causes the user to “jump” to a key frame in the middle of the movie. (Essentially the user “jumps” to a frame in the middle of the movie.)

If the user goes back to the beginning of the movie a “marker” has appeared beside the link that they clicked, marking the area they have visited.

Has anyone seen this effect? Does anyone know of a tutorial for constructing such a Flash?

Thank you,

TPK

Thanks in advance.

Active Link Color / Visited Link Color
Good day,
I have a simple navigation question. I've seen sites which allow buttons to have various states. Like in praystation.com- you click on a date, that date turns green. You click on another date- the old date turns red (indicating that you have already visited that link) and the new date becomes green.

How do you do that! Anyone know how that's done? It's nagging at my brain, I want to learn how, but I'm too much of a newbie to figure it out.

Any help would greatly appreciated.

A:visited ?
I need to create an underlined link with three button states using a CSS, that when clicked will start a movie clip. I've been able to accomplish most of this, but the a:visited button state will not function. Does Flash not recognize a:visited? I am using 3 dynamic text boxes - instance names (a,b,c) with var (text1, text2, text3) Here is my code:


on (reveal) {
var linkStyles:TextField.StyleSheet = new TextField.StyleSheet();
linkStyles.load("text.css");
linkStyles.onLoad = function(success:Boolean) {
if (success) {
a.styleSheet = linkStyles;
b.styleSheet = linkStyles;
c.styleSheet = linkStyles;
} else {
trace("Could not load CSS file.");
}
}
text1= "<A HREF="asfunction:anim_33.activate,2"><H1><li><ul >Text Goes Here</A>";
text2= "<A HREF="asfunction:anim_33.activate,11"><H1><li><u l>Text Goes here</A>";
text3= "<A HREF="asfunction:anim_33.activate,21"><H1><li><u l>Text Goes here</A>";


Here is my CSS (text.CSS):

H1 {
font-family: Arial; font-weight: bolder; font-size: 18pt
}
A:link {
color: #FF9900; text-decoration: underline
}
A:visited {
color: #666666; text-decoration: underline
}
A:hover {
color: #FFFF33; text-decoration: underline
}

Visited Button
I want to create a button whereby if I click and open up the movie clip or scene that it pertains to, it will change when I return to the main menu.

Basically I want to give a button a "visited" state like in HTML.

How would I go about this?

Is there a 'decent' way in Flash, to create a different color for visted links?

The only way i can think of, just seems very long and laborious.

Visited Links
Is there a way to make a text button symbol such that it has a different
color after it has been visited, like in regular html. I am NOT talking
about the DOWN state but rather a VISITED state.

Visited Buttons - Possible?
Hello, I have 24 buttons on my website and I want to allow users to see where they have been but Flash buttons don't have a visited link option. Because of the number of buttons, there are thousands of possible selection orders, so I can't solve the problem by taking viewers to a new frame on the timeline for each button used. (It might be easier to understand my problem if you look at my site: www.xs4all.nl/~grogers.)
Does anyone have a solution? Thanks, ginar

I have a quick question.

I have a series of buttons, and I want the button to be different and stay different after a user has visited that section... for instance, 5 sections, 5 buttons, when they visit one of the sections, the button to that section becomes slightly darker.

Can anyone explain to me how I could achieve this? Thank you!

Bookmark Visited Content - How To...?
Hey Flashers united, check out this site if you will:
http://www.tofteproject.info
(it was Macromedia SOD on friday 27/06)

On the upper right side of the screen, there's a sort of "table of content" panel. As you visit different parts of the site, a checkmark appears in front of the items to indicate that you have seen/visited that part of the site.

Anyone any ideas how to create such a thing? Tutorials, links, sample fla's, pointers, anything that will make me a smarter boy is welcomed.

Greetings from
Dubya

ps: any ideas etc. that will make me a richer boy are also welcomed...

Going Back To Last Visited Frame?
I'm working on a project that is completely non-linear, so you can be jumping from one frame to the other, and one scene to another. I would like a button on each page that will take you back to the frame that you've just come from. Obviously, "previous frame" won't work as that just takes you to the previous frame on the timeline. How would I go about first getting Flash to record what was the last frame was, and then calling this from a button?

Thanks for your help in advance,

[F8] Visited Button Issue
So I have an invisible button, on top of a movieclip with two frames. I want it to be able to have it show you have visited a button, and for the most part it does that however, I'm getting weird issues whereas if i click on any button, the rest will stick by just rolling over them, without clicking. hard to explain really, here is the example: www.jmfoto.net/whitelabel.html go to "foto" and click on "wedding 1"...here is my as:
gallerynav_mc.gallery1_btn.onRollOver = function(){
gallerynav_mc.gallerybutton1_mc.gotoAndStop (2)
}
gallerynav_mc.gallery1_btn.onRelease = function(){
holder.loadMovie("wedding1/1.jpg");
}

gallerynav_mc.gallery1_btn.onPress = function() {
pressed = true;
gallerynav_mc.gallerybutton1_mc.gotoAndStop(2);
}
if (pressed == true) {
gallerynav_mc.gallerybutton1_mc.gotoAndStop(2);
}
gallerynav_mc.gallery1_btn.onRollOut = function() {
if (pressed == true) {
gallerynav_mc.gallerybutton1_mc.gotoAndStop(2);
}
else {
gallerynav_mc.gallerybutton1_mc.gotoAndStop(1);
}
}

....also, is there a simpler way to write all this code for 15 buttons? thank you for your help.

Help Back To Last Visited Frame
Hi;
How could i write a code that allow me back to the last visited frame?

For example;

currently i m in frame 5, I click on a button that will bring me to frame 10, how could i have a back button in frame 10, so that it will bring me back to frame 5?

I do consider about the following code


Code:

on (release){
trace(_currentframe);
prevFrame();
trace(_currentframe);
stop();
}
but this will bring me to frame 9, which is incorrect.

I also consider about;



Code:

on (release){
gotoAndStop(5)
}

but my problem is, the first page could be from frame 4, 3, or 2. Therefore, hope anyone could help on get me back to the last visited frame.

Thank you.

Visited State Button?
so, a normal flash button only has up,over,and down states, i need there to be a visited state, i have looked all over and have not been able to find anything that truely answered this. if there is an answer (which i know there is) using actionscript or anything else. that is what i need to know.

Flashcookie - Recently Visited?
Hi,
I'm trying to figure out how to set up a flashcookie which checks if the user has recently visited the site, and if so, just give them the pre-constructed homepage, so they dont have to sit through the animation. The homepage of the site is flash, but the rest of the site is html (dont worry its not a skipintro )

Basically, what I need to accomplish is a flashcookie which tracks how recently the site has been visited. I'm thinking if its within the last 30 minutes or so, it would be considered a continuation of the visit, any longer than that and it would be a new visit.

Is there an easy way to implement a timeout function with a cookie with a length of 30 minutes?

Thanks!!

Why On Earth No Support For A:visited ?
I have read from other forums that others too would very much like to see Flash support a:visited. Much to my suprise after 4 years and two new releases of Flash supporting css, there still is no support for a:visited. A:visited allows the user to see which hyperlinks they have already selected. I don't even care if a:visited functions after my Flash site closes like html, just as long as it works while the Flash site is running. It would be a great benefit for our clients. We do whole sites with lots of text links in Flash.

I'm currenly attempting a workaround to override the css style for a selected <a href> section of text. I may end up not even using css and have to create a bunch of code to simulate it somehow. I held off resorting to such extreme measures assuming Flash 9 would have it by now. But it looks as though it may never be incorporated for unknown reasons.

Any suggestions on the a:visited workaround are very much appreciated.

Of course Windows Presentation Foundation may offer this and 3D too.
