Background and flash buttons

Phone keeps ringing on the caller's end - Is This a Call Waiting and Flash Button Problem?

I had FIos phone service installed 2 weeks ago. I am having a sporadic but regularly occurring issue with incoming calls that I think might be related to the Call Waiting and flash button so I am looking for some input. Before describing the issue here are a couple of things to know:
- I have my Verizon voice mail service turned off on my account.
- I have the call waiting function set to off.
- On my phone handset the Talk and Flash operation is the same button.
Now here is my issue. Often but not 100% of the time people are telling me that the phone just rings and rings on their end. After receiving many complaints since my Fios install that the phone rings and my phone answering machine does not pick up the call I have been calling my home phone number with my cell phone and I have determined the following:
1. My home answering machine will pick up the call, however on my cell phone which is the calling end the phone is still just ringing.
2. Sometimes I will press the talk button but there will be dead air but on my cell phone which is the calling end it will still be ringing.. But if I press the Talk/Flash button a couple of times the call completes.
Since my Talk and Flash button are the same I started to wonder if that is a factor so I repeated scenarios above and found that after pressing the Talk button a couple of times then the call is answered and the phone stops ringing on the caller's end.
I know that with Call Waiting the caller's end will just keep ringing unless the called end switches over with the Flash button. So my question is even though I have the Call Waiting function turned off could the combination Talk/Flash button be the reason why the call just rings on the caller's end even though I have Call Waiting turned off? And f this is the cause then why is it happening and does it mean that I have to buy a new phone that has separate Talk and Flash buttons?
I hope the above description of my problem makes sense and can be answered. Thank you

Without buying a new phone you can test this. Unplug the phone that has the combination button. If its a cordless phone base station with multiple handsets, make sure you unplug those as well. Then use a regular phone plugged in to do test calls (if you dont have one you could maybe borrow one for a couple minutes from a friend, family, or neighbor).

DW MX and Flash Buttons

Hello,
I designed a simple website some time ago and created flas
buttons to navigate the site. I transferred the site over to
another domain hosting service a couple of days ago and now the
flash buttons do not work with a single click. Users must now click
twice on the flash button to load the required page into an
adjacent frame.
Would anyone happen to know how to rectify this problem? What
may have caused it in the first place?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Tim

It's due to one of IE6's latest updates. You can read how to
fix it here -

Flash text and flash buttons in DW CS4

Hi,
I have installed DW CS4 on my pc with Vista Home Premium 64
Bit...I have edit my website homepage and I have discovered that I
can't edit all flash text and buttons that I have created with DW
CS3! I have see that the adobe has removed from CS4 version this
option! So, now how I can resolve this problem??
I have try to install also the CS3 version but I don't
understand because I can't no more activated it from internet or
phone option!
I'm very angry for this, now I have to recreate from the
begin all flash text and buttons of my website with other software?
perhaps to buy also the Flash CS4 version for the solution? is this
the new idea of adobe with their new CS4 version?

It was a poor choice on Adobe's part to ever include such an
option, and on
your part for using it. Think about it -
1. Some people don't have Flash installed - what do they do?
Especially
consider those people who are browsing from a corporate
internet where Flash
is not allowed by the IT staff.
2. Search engines may not parse Flash links - your site will
not be
spidered unless you have redundant HTML links
3. Screen assistive devices don't parse Flash links - what
will those users
do?
4. DW cannot maintain links within a Flash movie, so if you
move or rename
a linked file, your navigation will break - what will you do?
You will have
to remake those buttons.
It's almost always a very bad idea for these reasons.
The solution is to make graphics to replace the Flash
elements, or just use
CSS styled text.

Firefox and SeaMonkey do not show any webpage backgrounds and hot buttons don't have borders and entry windows like the one I'm typing in don't have borders. The only reason I can type here is I saw a cursor in this big blank area.

Firefox 3.6.16 and SeaMonkey 2.0.13 yesterday stopped displaying webpage background color. Everything is white. This text box has such a faint grey line around it that I didn't know it was there.
Every webpage I look at has the same issue.
Bing works correctly.
IE got corrupted a month ago and I've stopped using it.
My Windows 7 programs, Outlook, Word, Excel changed their color settings and some icons, Print & Paste, on the toolbars are larger like 1995 quality.

There are various ways of having Flash inform Director of
items that are
interacted with. Search the docs for getURL(), or search the

Flash Button and IE7 issues

When I first built www.tutsheaven.com, I used Dreamweaver and
Flash buttons. Everything has worked fine until IE7 came out. Now,
you need to double click on the buttons to navigate to the next
page. Is there a fix for this problem, or do I need to change all
of the buttons on this and some other sites?

How to SHOW/HIDE a dreamweaver layer from a flash button?

I have almost 2 weeks tying to find a solution for this. Please help...
-How can you SHOW/HIDE an thml-dreamweaver layer from a flash movie button.
My html layer name is LAYER1, and my FlashMC botton name is FLBOT1
Now, what is the actionscript that im suppouse to place in the flash button?
Please respond, Thanks

Adobe removed Flash Text and Flash Buttons from CS4 for accessibility reasons. Flash buttons aren't web friendly. And if you use this approach, you'll need to work in Flash because DW doesn't write Action Script for you.
That said, you could do something similar without Flash.

Say Goodbye to FLASH Buttons?!

Previous posts I've seen on the subject of Flash Button
extensions indicate that these options have been removed in the CS4
version!
One of the MODS wrote:
David Powers(Moderator)December 1, 2008
James, Flash text and Flash buttons were removed for several
reasons. First of all, they were quite primitive in the effects
they created. More importantly, many inexperienced designers used
them without understanding the implications of embedding text and
navigational elements in Flash. Any Flash elements need the user to
have the Flash player embedded in their browser. Although Flash
Player is very widespread, its use is not 100 percent universal. As
a result, such people see no content or navigation if everything is
embedded in Flash elements. If you understand how to use Flash, you
should create such elements in Flash CS4 Professional or Flex.
If this is true then I would like to be the one to decide
whether I should use this option for the Web I'm creating!
I'd really hate to manually have to add these codes into
everypage, and although I've used Dreamweaver since it's first
version, doing this may perhaps get me to re-evaluate whether or
not to switch to MS Expression which will me a hassle but all the
same I will do!
Anyhow, I hope this get's fixed, cause I think all of the
extension options are an important part of the software! Alot of us
have been using the software since it was first released, have
bought numourus extentions for Dreamweaver and I think it sucks
that these options are not included since they have been a major
part of the software from the very beginning!
What I add into the Website is my business and I would think
it would be in Adobes best interest to support the features their
customers use!
Comments anyone? (Please me kind :)

This is the point, not that many people use this feature and
keeping it around takes time and effort to make sure it still works
in the new version of Dreamweaver, time and effort that would be
better spent on testing and updating features that are used, as
well as any new features being added.
Remember that noone is pulling the old version of Dreamweaver
off of your system, so you should still be able use the older
version to access the old feature.

Browser "Back" arrows do not work with Flash buttons.

Just can't seem to get around this problem...
I've made several flash buttons for use in my navigation bars. They work great but the "back" arrows on the browser are always grayed out. It doesn't seem to matter what kind of browser I use.
The site was made in Dreamweaver and the Flash buttons are imbedded within the pages. I posted the same question on the Dreamweaver forum and got some vague answers.
Is there some code I can put into my Flash buttons?
If you have an answer please be specific as I'm not an expert.
The site is fireonmcginnis.com
or just type "Fire on McGinnis" into a search engine.
-Toastieo

Spry or regular hyperlinks in a list or nav configuration. Either is better than Flash buttons.
Thing is, a search bot will read the HTML in those kinds of links (spry or HTML) and index them. That way if you have an event calendar for upcoming shows, or a discography page, it can find them and will be able to make a reference to them in later search engine databases (usually about 72 hours after the indexing). With the Flash buttons there is no code for the bot to find and your upcoming events, or a downloads page if there is one, will never be seen in a search even if people look directly for "fireonmcginnis: schedule", or "music by fireonmcginnis" because to Google, Yahoo, Lycos and the others the pages simply don't exist.
Spry is great if you have submenus, and since it can be customized using CSS, you can make it match your site layout. You can also do that with regualr hyperlinks and CSS, but spry has a more appealing look to a lot of web users and the submenus are a little harder with basic HTML.
For the record the script should read: getURL ("http://www.site.com/page.html" "_self"); for the buttons. There'a s drop down to select _self, _blank, _parent etc. when you add the getURL script to the button.
But... you need to stay away from Flash buttons for navigation or you're really defeating the purpose of putting a band on a website in the first place. It's about exposure and Flash buttons will severely limit that exposure, even if they work properly.

My Flash Button

Hi,
I made a flash button with a simple rollover animation
(&sound) and I pasted a swf. in both flash buttons and flash
buttons preview in Flash Objects in the Dreamweaver application.
But I can't see it when I go insert- flash button in DW. Now, my
swf file says SWF file whereas the others say SWF movie, is this
the problem? I'm exporting as movie, how else would I go about?
Would be so grateful for help.
Thank you.
*Jenny*

If you want to use Flash for navigation, consider this -
1. Some people don't have Flash installed - what do they do?
2. Search engines don't parse Flash links - your site will
not be spidered
3. Screen assistive devices don't parse Flash links - what
will those users
do?
4. DW cannot maintain links within a Flash movie, so if you
move or rename
a linked file, your navigation will break - what will you do?
It's usually a very bad idea for these reasons, just so
you'll know....

Flash buttons not working in IE7 and Chrome

Here's my website where the problem is occuring www.bakercreative.co.uk
As you can see the Flash buttons animate, but when clicked they should go to a new html page.
I've tested it in IE8 and Firefox without any problems but it's not working in IE7 and Chrome.
Does anyone know what the problem is? Could it be the html code or the flash file itself?
Thanks

Hi, Glad you were able to solve that issue with the buttons and Chrome. Any small thing can cause big problems!! LOL
I'm sure IE7 will test out ok, IE6 did Your website is very nice and has a variety! I hope it all comes together for you.
Thanks,
