A Link To A Specific Part Of Flash Site, Not Just Home Page
Hi,
I'm trying to make a link from one flash site to another, but not just to the home page of it, but to a specific part of it. For example, I run jumpgallery.com and am wanting to make the direct links from the websites of the seven artists involved (mostly flash sites) to their specific page on the jumpgallery.com site... does that make sense?
I guess it depends on how I have structered my site, but does anyone have a starting point?
Any help would be very cool...
Can Flash Link To Specific Page In Pdf?
If anyone can help I'd appreciate it. I'm working on a piece that uses code to open acrobat from a button within flash. Works fine except I'd like to open it to a specific page if possible and I'm wondering if there is some sort of command line I could add in or something to that extent.
Flash Jester and Adobe Acrobat forum seem to say it's not possible but I wondered if any Flashers out there may have beat the system.
Thanks!

What Part Of This Code Must I Change....to Steer Users To A Link Page.

How do I do this?
What part of this code do I have to change?
Thanks.

What Part Of This Code Must I Change....to Steer Users To A Link Page.
Okay, here is the story. I have the 'detect for flash 6' template selected in my publish settings, and the following code is what it gave me.
NOw, I want to direct the user to an html page if they don't have it. What part of this code must I change to make this happen?
It looks like it is currently directing people to delightfulboy.gif.
Delightfulboy is the name of the site. But there is no gif on the site. Is it assuming that I would put one there?
Is this the part of the code that I would change?
Instead of delightfulboy.gif, I could put, newhtmlpage.html
or whatever, right?
Thanks.

Link To Specific Frame From Html Page
Hello cortex:
I'm trying to figure out how it is possible to link into a flash movie - from a regular html link.
i have five images, representing five steps. image one is fine because it links to an html page with the swf file on it and the movie opens and plays starting at step one.
but my second image needs to go the the swf file step2 (frame label) and not to the beginning of the movie to play.
is this at all possible?
i have posted the working files:

LInk To Specific Frame From HTML Page
Hello. Does anyone know how to link to an html page with an swf file on it and have the swf open up to a certain frame number or frame label? as oppossed to opening at the beginning.
I divided my swf into five parts and i'm representing those parts on an html page and i have to have each part open to its corresponding section in the flash movie instead of just opening up the flash movie at the beginning.
i've posted a working example of this at:

Specific Html Page Triggers Specific Frame Of The Flash Movie
I have been playing with flash and html and wonder if any of you have a bright idea on how to do this.
I have a flash movie, which I call from html but depending on which part of the html page I call it from I want to start it at a particular frame and not always from the beginning.
I have created a variable within the movie in action script and given it a different value for each of the frames I want to start the movie at, and want now to designate the value I give to that within html so that the movie “jumps” to the correct frame. Is this possible or am I totally crazy??

Many thanks again

Creating A Flash Movie That Overlaps Part Of The Rest Of The Web Page When You Rollov
I am fairly new to flash and was wondering if someone could help me to find a tutorial or tell me how to design a flash movie that gets bigger and looks like it is coming off the stage. It overlaps some of the rest of the web page that is done in something other than flash. A lot of the movie trailers that are done in flash have this effect when you mouse over them. Any help would be greatly appreciated and I hope you can understand what i am asking in my question.
Thank you
Html Link And Flash Link On Intro Page
I've noticed that a lot of Flash sites have some kind of detector to see if you have the flash plug in. Is that scripting?
Plus, I see that the intro page of ones site will have an HTML and a FLASH option to choose from to enter the site. Would that be enabled in the publish settings of Flash 5? I am curious to know how that is done because I am designing this young lady's site and she wants the viewers to have the options of HTML or Flash.
Thanks!
HTML Linking To Specific Part Of A Swf.movie
Can anyone help me with this problem!
What I want to do is to <href>link from a HTMLpage to a specific label in an external swf movie. The movie should then be downloaded into this same window.
The flashmovie is an introduction to(and in between)all
different pages, and therefore should display a different title everytime.I want to link to this specific part of the movie from the HTML page.
Maybe something like
<href .... loadmovie.... ,label blabla> in the HTML otherwise a JS-script with a function.
Example can be found at http://www.opdemuuren.nl.
The running train should be the introduction to all other pages which are flash now but will be HTML soon.

Flash Link To Open In Specific Place
Hello, I'm working here at my school on a new website design. So far i made a top menu that has categories that drop down on over, etc. So there is a top menu and there are menu's that drop down from that. I need to link the buttons in the menu to open in a box below the menu. I have tried to place the whole thing in flash and have the links somehow open in a dynamic text box or anything i could think of that was placed over the specific window. I also tried seperating the flash part and then having the rest be images and tables, but the flash file is tall, so that the menus have room to fall down, and it has a transparant background so if i seperate the swf and the pics int tables i end up with
|-----------------| the menu
|-----------------|
|
| a bunch of blank space
|-----------------|
| | - then the box i want the links to open in, with some trim, etc.
I have also tried to use Adobe image ready to slice the image up, and have that box be a seperate slice. I ended up actually cutting up the image into slices so i could make that box a table in itself. I then uploaded the .psa onto flash and made the whole menu and box one flash file. This made it so i had a Text "I" cursor whenever i went over that box, with the flash links merely opening new pages. The "I" suggested i seperated that section to a table.. but i wasn't clear on how to name it so i could target it.
SO the actionscript i'm using for the buttons is:
on(press) {
getURL("Link","_mainframe");
}
on (rollOut) {
gotoAndPlay(1);
}
The target is a page called _mainframe. That's what i tried to name the box image slice able.
Can anyone help me?
thanks very much.
Html Link To Specific Point In Flash
My FLASH site is set up by having 4 sections each with a IF TRUE PLAY FORWARD, if not PLAY BACKWARD.
I want an HTML link to open this site and play the "WORK" section that doesnt play from the beginning. The "ABOUT" section does.
How would I make this link in HTML that would make workSec="true" so that flash would play this section out instead of aboutSec?
THANKS A MILLION IN ADVANCE,

Linking To A Specific Frame In Flash From A Html Link?
Is is possible to have an html link - link to a specific frame of a flash movie embedded in an html page?
I have a web site that is mostly flash. However - I am also using mambo for content management for non-flash pages that are part of the same site. I can click a link in the flash movie that will take my browser to the specific html page, no problem - but is it possible to do the reverse - have the html link goto the flash?
For instance: I would like in the html page a link that goes specifically to 'frame 100' of the flash movie that loads the 'contact' flash form. Is it possible to link to a html page that contains the flash movie and have it goto that specific frame?
I would like this to be seamless in the same browser. Right now I have the flash popup the html pages for those specific links.
thanks!

[F8] Open A PDF To Specific Page In Reader From Flash
I have a LOCAL Flash presentation which contains links to various PDFs. However, in some cases, I have a link in the Flash presentation that needs to open to a specific page (or destination) within a certain PDF.
Now, Adobe has provided parameters which can be used in a URL to accomplish this. For Example, typing the following into your browser would open the PDF in the browser to page 4:
Code:
http://www.MyWebsite.com/MyPdf.pdf#page=4
A list of all the parameters you can add to a URL can be found here:
http://partners.adobe.com/public/dev...Parameters.pdf
However, this only works for "non-local" files.
If I try to use this method to open a LOCAL PDF which resides in the same folder as my projector file:
Code:
on(release){
getURL("C:/MyPresentation/MyPdf.pdf#page=4", "_blank", "GET");
}
1 of 2 things will happen when the link is clicked:
1) If Internet Explorer is the user's default browser, the PDF will open in a new browser window and display page 1 (instead of page 4) of MyPdf.pdf
2) If FireFox is the user's default browser, it actually WILL open MyPdf.pdf in a new browser window and go straight to page 4 like I want it to.
However, instructing the user to download, and set FireFox to be their default browser is not an option. Hence, using the getURL(); method is also not an option.
The only option I'm left with is to try an open the PDF in Adobe Reader instead of an internet browser. If there is a way to do this using getURL(); I'd love to hear it. However; from my travels in the forums, I think the only way I can accomplish this is by writing a BAT file.
What I haven't been able to determine is if there is a way, by using a combination of "fscommand" and BAT files and Proxies, etc. to launch a PDF in Reader from Flash and have that PDF open to a specific page?

How Do I Make A Link In Flash Go To A Specific Frame In A Dreamweaver Made Site?
When I speak of frame I mean frame as in html frame and not a frame in the flash movie. You see I need the links on my website to go into the center frame of the html website, because now if you click a link in the menu frame of the html fite a whole new page opens in my browser. Now keep in mind that the menu I made is a flash menu and is in the menu frame of my html site. Please help me

Making Flash Goto Specific Place On Timeline From Clicking A Link
Hi all,
Should be quite an easy question for you guys!
I have an swf embedded in an html page. Now when you come to this page from another html page by clicking a specific link I need the flash to go to a certain place on the timeline.
Whats the best way to do this? I have a coder who is coding in .NET and ASP.
I assume it would have something to do with a cookie in the browser?
If you know the answer if you could type out a few lines of code i would need that would be Great!
Thanks!
HTML Link To A Specific Movie Clip In A Flash Site That Uses MovieLoad
Hi,
I need to be able to have an HTML link take the user to another full Flash website. But it doesn't take you to the beginning of the Flash site, rather, it takes you to a specific page in that Flash site.
Only problem is, the Flash site itself uses movieLoad function to load different movie clip into the content area.
How do I pass variable into flashVar to link to a specific movie clip when it is using movieLoad?
I hope that make sense.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,

Flash Opening A Frameset And A Specific Page In One Of The Frames
hi
I have created a Flash intro which has a number of buttons to click. The page with the Flash intro is index.html this page has no framesets. What I want to do is when you click one of the buttons in the intro it loads index_a.html (in the same window) which is a frameset. This frameset consists of 4 frames left, navigation, content and right.
Going back to the button in the intro Flash I want to open index_a.html and another page which needs to open in the contents frame of index_a.html.
My question is how do I get Flash to do this? Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
Cheers
Johnathan
