Link to an animation

Is there a way to link to an small animation? I use links all the time to clip art and to text on my web site but I have small animation pieces that have text underneath and although the links are hooked to the text, my students always click on the animation first.

It looks you combined the links to the surveys with your emailaddress below.
The back to School Survey parts are maillinks, but they also have URLs as subject :
Back to School Survey Part 1
This is the URL : http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/CDFVYJ7
Check everything you do very carefully. And verify after publishing.

Thank you sincerly for any help in advance.
A link from my animation is locked inside the dimensions of the original animation. the link should go to new url but opens in i frame instead, scroll-able, within the dimensions of the beginning edge animation from which it linked.
Here is the landing page edge asset and the link is the center pulsing sand grain:
http://kkz321.businesscatalyst.com/index.html
Here is the actions javascript file from the animation. I'm not sure if it's the source.
"landing_hourglass_3_edgeActions.js"
(function($,Edge,compId){var Composition=Edge.Composition,Symbol=Edge.Symbol;
//Edge symbol: 'stage'
(function(symbolName){Symbol.bindElementAction(compId,symbolName,"${_landing_sand_grain}", "click",function(sym,e){window.open("http://kkz321.businesscatalyst.com/welcome.html","_self");});
//Edge binding end
Symbol.bindElementAction(compId,symbolName,"document","compositionReady",function(sym,e){$ ("#Stage").css("margin","auto")});
//Edge binding end
})("stage");
//Edge symbol end:'stage'
})(jQuery,AdobeEdge,"EDGE-landing_hourglass_3");
Here is snippet of CSS from main css page:
#EdgeIDlanding_hourglass_3 {
          margin-right: auto;
          margin-bottom: auto;
          margin-top: 5%;

remove the width and height out of the html object ( width="222" height="454" )
that would probably solve it
or change it to the pages width and height

I need help for my fading out,in animation : how to add a link to your animation ?

i really want to know how to add link to your animation .
well when i passe the mouse over my animation it stops and when i leave it the animation continue... but what i want when the mouse over the animation i want to click on the animation and to bring me to a link.
here is my code and i will really appreciate any help ... thanks so much in advance.
function stopFade(event:MouseEvent)
container.stop();
function resumeFade(event:MouseEvent)
container.play();
function aller(event:MouseEvent)
getURL(www.google.com);
container.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER,stopFade);
container.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,aller);
container.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT,resumeFade);

It appears you are mixing different versions of actionscript, which you cannot do, and I am surprised you are able to get the file to run without error messages.
Change...
getURL(www.google.com);
to
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.google.com"));

Properly Linking a Flash Animation to a URL

Hi Folks,
I'm Running CS4, AS3. Thanks in advance for taking a look at this.
I was asked to link a Flash banner ad to a URL. To accomplish this, I created a new layer with one keyframe in frame 1, which spans the whole animation. In this layer I entered the ActionScript in REFERENCE 1. It works fine in several browsers, including IE8, FF3.6, and Chrome, and works for the customer. Then....
Their webmaster emailed back saying that he "did not see any links in the new banner." I'm not sure what this means, and if he actually tested the code.
They sent me an example from a previous developer, which is REFERENCE 2.
I compared it to what I published--which was generated by the CS4 "Publish" option. This is REFERENCE 3.
Did I do something wrong? Everything works in all my tests, and they work for the customer.
It looks like they're missing a lot of information from the header. It is much smaller than the header that CS4 generates. They also have a link under the  comment. Could this affect the performance? To my knowledge, this is obsolete. Perhaps they used an older version of Flash?
tyvm!

You should check with whoever made the comment regarding the links -- it's not clear though it may refer to the difference between these lines in 2 and 3.
2)

<a href="http://www.URL.com/"></a>
3)

So you may just need to add some link after that line to appease them? So asking is your best means to resolution for that.
As far as your mention of a more robust head section goes, there is probably no difference between the two--they both use the AC_FL_RunContent coding to embed the Flash file.   The REF3 head section just contains all of the javascript code that is in the file they are linking in the following line...
<script src="AC_RunActiveContent.js" language="javascript"></script>

No external Linking for a animated gif

Hi there,
i want to paste an animated gif into my iWeb webpage with an enternal link - but there is no option to do this!
I already tried to lay over a rectangle, because here it is possible to link to an external page.
The prob here is, that after publishing the page, no linking is available.
Can somebody help me?
Thx,
M.

M:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. How did you configure the rectangle. I believe the object must have a color and some opacity. Set the color to the default white and the opacity to 1%. Then publish again and give it a try. Be sure it's in front of the gif and not behind.
I found it advantageous to publish to a folder on my desktop while I'm testing my site as it's so much quicker to publish, check, edit and republish. Then when I've got it right I publish to .Mac.
Do you Twango?

Email link in edge animation

Hi!
I have very little experience with the coding in edge animate outside the basic API provided by adobe.
I would like to add an email link to a button in edge animate.
window.open("http://www.adobe.com", "_self");
I can add a basic mailto: script that opens your email application and inputs the email defined.
But, I need to know how add a subject and body content. Specifially a link to a web site in the body copy of the email.
Can someone advise me on the code for this to be done?
Cheers

Instead of window.open("xxxxx"); method, try the window.location = "xxxxx"; on your click event handler.
window.open will force a blank browser window to open, which you do not want to occur.
/// Start Copy Here; paste into click event handler //
window.location = "mailto:[email protected]? \
subject=Subject Line Here& \
body=Add body context here with a link http://www.adobe.com to a website& \
cc=[email protected]& \
bcc=[email protected]";
// End Copy Here //
Also pay attention to the above notation.
In sum its a mailto URI querystring (?) with specific parmeters equating (=) to a string;
Initiate a new parameter using the &;
Use the backward slash \ to designate when to wrap the string to a new line (for visual effect only and easy wrapping of long text strings within the Code Editor);
I included the cc and bcc (carbon copy/ blind carbon copy) parameters, if not needed see below sample;
Replace the above string results with your own criteria;
/// Start Copy Here //
window.location = "mailto:[email protected]? \
subject=Subject Line Here& \
body=Add body context here with a link http://www.adobe.com to a website";
// End Copy Here //

HOW CAN PUT A LINK ON A FLASH ANIMATION

You cannot put an HTML link on a Flash object. You would have
to do that in
Flash.
By the way, your keyboard is stuck in caps.

Link Edge animation to HTML page?

Is there a way to link my Edge animation to an Index HTML page in the same folder as the Edge.HTML? I linked a webpage with the OpenURL trigger and it worked. But I would like to link it to the index page within the same folder so that I can test it before uploading it to the internet.
The trigger link that worked is:
window.open("http://www.mywebsite.com", "_self");
But can I use something like:
window.open("index.com", "_self");
Thanks,
Susan

Susan-
You don't need the sitename - just use this (assuming you are calling it from the same directory as you said):
window.open("index.html", "_self");
Else, you should be able to use this if it one folder deep:
window.open("../index.html", "_self");

Shockwave won't play linked Director files from server

I created a bunch of director files for the course content of my class. All can be accessed from a contents file. When I created an html contents file on my desktop (in the same folder as the linked director files), the contents pages would open in shockwave in my browser (both Firefox and Safari) and then by clicking on a link other director files would open and play. However, when all these files were place on our server (in the same folder), only the contents pages would open and we get an error message saying the dirctor files cannot be opened. I think this means it sees them, but can't open them.
Help!

Hi Sean
   sorry if my e-mail was a bit whiney, but I got a bit frustrated,
having tried to use the Adobe website for help and then trying for
help over the phone. Adobe has this nice thing where they will call
you back instead of you sitting on hold, which I used at first, but
you get called back by a machine, not a person, then you subsequently
get a progression of robocalls with nobody on the other end! I
finally just sat and waited and got a person, who seemed
knowledgeable and nice, but couldn't help me without a payment. So, I
would greatly appreciate any help you could provide!
       What I have is this. I constructed a "book" in CD form for my
class. This is based on CDs that Mike Coleman and I published a few
years ago. A picture of the contents page is shown below. Each topic
is in a separate Director file, each with its own casts. We made a
lot of animations, some in Flash and some in Quicktime that appear in
each topic. I redid everything in Director 11.5, changing text
spacing because of the way things get altered when things get played
in Shockwave! When I click on one of these subtopics, the
corresponding Director file opens. I accomplished linkage this by
appending a behavior to the text, "Play Movie X". I then originally
made a projector file of the contents page and distributed the CD to
my class free (textbook prices are getting out of hand). Now I want
to put it on the web, because I'm tired of burning CDs and we're
getting students from other locations taking the course on-line. So
within the folder on my desktop that held all the Director files, I
made a second folder "dswMedia" into which I placed all the
animations. I also linked all the animation casts to the Contents
Director file. I then constructed a Contents.html file and
Contents.dcr file using the Publish commands in Director. When I
click on the Contents.html file within my main folder (the one
holding all the Director files and the dswMedia file) the page opens
nicely in my browser (Firefox) and I can play all the Director movies
by clicking on each topic. All the animations play beautifully.
Great , I thought, I'm in business. I then took the files to our
media guy who put it on the server, in the same form as on my
desktop. If we click on the Contents.html file through the web it
opens. Clicking on a topic does not open that Director Movie. The
error message is not that it can't find the movie, however, but that
it can't open it. Everything works just fine on our media guys
computer, we only have a problem when we attempt to use this stuff
through the web. (Our web guy's computer does not have Director, so
that's not the issue).
      Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!
         Regards
                Paul

How can I make a warp/wave animation of my logo, and drop it into muse?

I have made a Logo that has a wave like feature to it, it is round, and I made and animation of it warping, rotating, and moving around the screen with After Effects. Now I have realised that after effects was probably not the right program to make a transparent animation which I want to place over a full page slideshow in Muse. I cannot seem to find the right effects in Adobe Edge Animation to create the same effect.
Any suggestions as to which program I should be using?
Or is there a way to export After Effects into Edge, or directly to Muse? (It needs to be transparent and on a loop)
Hereby a link to the animation:

Flash button link AS 3.0

I have a flash button link using actionscript 3.0. The animation is a fade in of a logo. The problem is that the button is only a link during the animation, ie. when the logo has fully faded in it stops becoming a link. Here is the actionscript code i am using, does anyone know where i am wrong? Thank you so much.
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
myButton.addEventListener(
MouseEvent.CLICK, myButtonFunction);
function myButtonFunction(event:MouseEvent):void {
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://flightswitch.com/home.html");
navigateToURL(request, "_self");

Hi,
If the logo animation is completely fade then the link is not enabled?
Is it?
Disable the logo button after it fade.

Link to page, not open new window

Hi there
in Edge, how do I code to link to a page, without opening a new browser window (but also without using _self which caused problems by trying to open the link in the animation window).
Thanks
Simon

So ... just to clarify ... _blank would open a new window, not what I want!

Can I use animated emoticons in mail?

I want to put an animated emoticons in my signature block in emails. I can put them in my signature block but they do not animate. How to use animated emoticons in mail? If so how do I get them to work?

You said you have a url link to the animated gif.
Open that link in Safari or Firefox or some other browser so that you are actually looking at the animated gif doing its thing.
Open Mail and go to Preferences > Signatures
Select a signature to edit or create a new one.
Edit the text as desired.
To add the animated gif drag the actual image from the browser window and drop it in to place in Mail's signature composing frame. Don't worry if it only displays as a [?] icon. When you do this, you aren't actually adding the image but are creating an HTML link to the file on the internet server.
Make sure you have added the signature to the account you will be using it with. You can drag the signature name (in the middle column) and drop it on the desired account in the left hand column.
If that is the only signature you have for that account, then when you start a new message it will automatically apear in the message. If you have multiple signatures you can select the one you want (or none) from the message's toolbar.
