Directing hyperlink to specific frame

Hello all!
I have a 2 frame webpage. In the top frame is my web form. I have a button on the top frame form that generates a hyperlink. Is it possible to direct that hyperlink to the named frame below the frame that the web form is in?
Thanks!
Steve

more specifically, it appends the iexplore command and my target url to the address of the application server:
http://scorpio:8888/forms90/"C:/Program%20Files/Internet%20Explorer/IEXPLORE.EXE"%20http://scorpio:902/pls/habs9i/!sbentry.display?LEVEL=OPERATION&plannbr=1040&opernbr=1014&operseq=1

IE11 can't post form data to specific frame or window dialog opened via window.open()

Hello,
Form POST targeting to specific frame or dialog popped up via window.open() no longer works in IE11.
It worked fine in IE10 and all previous versions of IE.
Please see screenshot attached with simple test that reproduces this problem.
Direct Link to screenshot:
http://173.231.98.44/cgi/TestFolder/IE_11_widow_frame_targeting_BUG.jpg
Direct link to simple test page demonstrating this problem:
http://173.231.98.44/cgi/TestFolder/page2.asp
Note: IE11 doesn't report any errors, doesn't complain about anything, even when debugged via F12 developer tools. The only thing it complained initially was missing doc type declaration on top of page, but even after adding doc type definition, problem still
persists, makes no difference.
I tested this on fresh install of Windows 2012R2 while testing our web application with the new IE11.
I believe doing this on Windows 8.1 with IE11 will result in same bug/problem.
Our web application uses a technique whereby it launches a popup window via call to window.open(), passing blank URL and specifying a name for the new window. It then does a from post targeting the name of new dialog.
In IE11 this functionality has been broken and no longer works.
Problem is that IE11, instead of posting form to the newly created dialog, it launches a new instance of IE and then loads the requested form in this new instance of IE, while the dialog launched via window.open() remains on screen and is empty. If user repeats
launching same form post request (via button click for example), IE 11 keeps creating new empty dialogs and new IE instance for every form post executed. This totally breaks our application because we use many so called "wizards" that encapsulate
specific functionality in separate web page launched in a popup window.
Another related problem is that if a dialog is launched with window.open(), the java script code in the dialog can not target the parent frame that opened the dialog anymore. In our application, when a dialog is closed, it typically needs to trigger a refresh
of a specific frame within the parent window (again targeted by name) to reflect saved/updated info that user entered in the popup dialog. The result is that we can't refresh the parent frame after the pop up dialog closes. Instead, IE11 launches
a new instance of IE (not just a tab, but a whole new instance) and loads the parent frame in it.
The problem seems to be caused by broken frame name targeting mechanism in IE11.
Note that we force IE to compatibility mode 5, but even without specifying any compatibility, the problem remains.
Typical java script to reproduce this is:
<input type="button" onClick="Popup(this.form);" name="btn2" value="Popup Dialog">
function Popup(f){
    window.open("","MyNewDialogName","width=200,height=150");
    f.action = "page3.asp";
    f.target = "MyNewDialogName";
    f.submit();
Expected: IE11 should correctly post form to and load targeted page in the newly popped up dialog, without opening new IE instance and new tab. Repeatedly posting form to existing popup window should reuse that window, not keep on launching more popup windows
and then more IE instances.
Steps to reproduce the problem (include URL if applicable):
URL with sample page: http://173.231.98.44/cgi/TestFolder/page2.asp
1) Create page1.htm: <html><body>display "I'm in a popup window now ..."</body></html>
2) Create page2.htm with a button and onclick() event calling function to open dialog, and do form POST targeting new dialog calling page1.htm, like below.
<input type="button" onClick="Popup(this.form);" name="btn2" value="Popup Dialog"> function Popup(f){
    window.open("","MyNewDialogName","width=200,height=150");
    f.action = "page1.asp";
    f.target = "MyNewDialogName";
    f.submit();
3) Open IE11, navigate to page2.htm, click the "Popup Dialog" dialog button. IE 11 will popup the new dialog, but then it will also launch new instance of IE11 and display the page1.htm in it, instead of in the popup dialog.
Has anyone else encountered this problem?
Any insight or help is appreciated.
Regards
Peter

the default action of <input type="button" is submit. Note also that the default type of <button> elements is 'submit' also.
add a return false to the onclick inline event handler (which constructs the form submit attribues) to cancel the default form.submit behavior.
form elements have a target value with which you can specify the name window into which you want the form to open in.
<form action="process.aspx" target="popup">
you can use the window.open method with a query uri to achieve the same outcome.
window.open('process.aspx?s=search+term&foo=bar','popup',{features})
the outcomes of all scripted windows are affected by
your IE Popup blocker and tabbed browsing settings
which in turn is affected by your IE Security zone settings (for popup blocking handling)
and the settings of any third-party popup blocker you may have installed and enabled... it may not necessarily be visible on your browser toolbar.
The first step in troubleshooting web browser issues is to test in no-addons mode.
Use the Developer Tool to find out what documentMode the test page is opening in on your system. On Modal/Modeless popup windows use the f12 key to display the Developer tool positioned on the contentWindow.
Use File>Properties to find out what IE Security zone it maps to... there is a security setting to prevent navigation into zones of lower integrity.

How link from html page to a specific frame in flash cs5 as3

Hi!
I'm kinda new around here. I am interested in knowing how to link from a specific html page to a specific frame in flash cs5 as3.
I have a website that I originally began to design in flash but later started developing new pages for it in html. The flash part of it has several pages on different frames and I have created links from the flash part to the other html pages, but, I can only link the html pages back to the main flash home page, and not the other pages in the flash part of the website.
I have read that in cs3 it was possible using the flashvars skip variable, but I don't know how to do it. I have not yet seen any working examples and I could not find any instructions / tutorials online for cs5.
Can someone help here?

add a query string, to the swf's embedding html, with variable/value indicating the frame you want to display in your swf. add a javascript function to return the query string (or entire url), call the javascript function from flash using the externalinterface class. and finally add code to your swf to parse the returned url or query string, parse it and then direct your timeline to the appropriate frame.

Reproduced See It Mode in a specific Frame

I'm using UPK 3.6 and I'm trying playback to start with a specific frame instead of from the beginning.
I've tried with this hyperlink:
dhtml_kp.html?Guid=be7fc7b1-8d5b-42d2-8b24-834bbe585819&Mode=S&Back&Windowed&Frame=16
As you can see I've used the "Frame" paramenter but It doesn't worK.
What do I do wrong?
Thanks in advance.
Esther.

I've discovered the mistake by myself. If you want start with a specific frame you can't put the other parameters as windowed, Back.

Play specific frame in relation to X and Y

Hello i'm relatively new to Flash and although getting quite
familiar with the environment i'm still pretty much a big ignoramus
when it comes to actionscript. Appologies if sililar to this has
been posted before, I did a search (and have been searching the net
all day!)
I have a stop frame animated head with most of frames done in
various movements (at the moment they're JPGs, but if I can get
this to work I'll convert to vector). I thought it'd be cool when
the user is mousing around the top and right side of the head for
the head to move in the cursors direction and look at it. Once the
cursor is on top of the head it plays in reverse, back to the
start. So I have the frames for this movement now (42 in various
positions) and the closest i've come to achieving what I need is
from using this:
Actionscript:
onClipEvent(load){
xlow = 300
xhigh = 450
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
gotoAndStop(Math.ceil((Math.min(Math.max(_root._xmouse,xlow),xhigh-1)-xlow+1)/(xhigh-xlow) *10))
This works ok for just looking right (frames 1-10), but I've
been useless at adapting this so far, and am not even sure if this
it is what I need for the whole thing. I can't work out how to make
it work on the y axis simultaneously.
So all in all I need to tell flash to play a specific frame
depening on the X and Y of the cursor and when the user mouses over
the face the movie must play from wherever it was stopped.
An added bonus would be something like a variation in
animation speed - speedy at first and slowing as it reaches the
target. However I'd be much more than happy to just get the basics
down at the moment though.
If none of this makes any sense I can supply the source file,
but until I covert all the graphics to vector the file is big (8
Mb).
If anyone can give me any help or a nod in the right
direction I'd be your new best friend,
John

This is made clear when you have Context Help turned on. You should always have this on.

Crashing on specific frame

Premiere Pro CS5 is crashing (the ol' "has stopped working") on a specific frame of a specific AVI file in preview as well as during export. When the video is unlinked from its audio and deleted, the crashing stops entirely. However, I can play the file perfectly fine in Windows Media Player. I've tried clearing the media cache, deleting preview files, resarting my system, and fixing the AVI with VirtualDub, DivFix++, and DivXRepair. This clip was recorded (like my other recent videos, none of which caused problems) in Dxtory using its default codec (Xtor). Any ideas (that don't involve cutting out the frame)?

I was simply following a guide on fixing AVI's which said to use direct stream copy mode to save as an AVI (among many other solutions); I didn't change any codec settings, and I can't find any either (I usually don't use VirtualDub for anything, but I don't see codec options in the preferences).
I suppose cutting out the frames may be my only option. It probably won't noticeably affect the final quality; it's just a rather tedious solution.

Going to a specific frame in a clip on another page

As may be self evident I am not an expert..... Is it possible
for a button (or series of buttons) on one page which, when
clicked, opens another html page with an embedded swf movie and
then goes to a specific frame in that movie ???
If that makes sense

no - simply put, if the html page/SWF and frame isn't loaded
when button is pressed - there isn't a
way because it doesn't exist yet.

5th generation ipod not detected by my windows xp. works fine on other pc. performed necessary steps to remove and reinstall itunes but having same issue. is there a driver i can download to pc then direct to that specific location when installing?

5th generation ipod not detected by my windows xp. works fine on other pc. performed necessary steps to remove and reinstall itunes but having same issue. is there a driver i can download to pc then direct to that specific location when installing?

I have a similar issue - my iPod nano connects and is visible in Device Manager yet invisible in My Computer and iTunes. I've tried everything I can possibly think of to try and solve this myself, all in vain.
Mine is a nano 4G. I've been using it for quite some time without the slightest problem. I have been using WINAMP instead of iTunes to manage my darling nano.
Then, one fine day I bought a new computer and the nano would not show up in My Computer, though the nano display shows "Do not disconnect". On my old computer it worked (and still works) absolutely fine with win XP as well as with win7 (the later I currently use on my new/problematic computer, which I bought last summer and that's how long I've had this problem).
Of course, after several first attempts I gave up and installed iTunes. I've tried using the Apple support article "iPod not recognized in 'My Computer' and in iTunes for Windows":
- reset
- fully charged,
- cable works fine on two other computers
- in normal or disk mode makes no difference
- tried to find anything useful in the diagnostics mode
- reinstalled iTunes several different times since then to the latest version
- I've unplugged every other USB device except for my mouse and keyboard and tried several different USB ports on my motherboard (USB 3.0 and conventional), as well as trying different USB- related options in my BIOS.
- I've never used any Mac with this ipod
- I've tried fiddling with the win7 Services by stopping and restarting them and of course
- uninstalling the iPod drivers in Device Manager. After such an uninstall the ipod would automatically be recognised and "ready for use", i.e. being invisible in My Computer.
- Attempted to find any possible third-party conflict with msconfig or the possibility that my ipod is being confused for a network drive (for which I've disconnected my HDD, leaving only my SSD with the OS).
Sometimes, iTunes would note that iPod service (or something, can't remember exactly) failed to install properly and asked to try and repair it. I would click YES! and voila - no change! The ipod would rarely show up in iTunes on my problematic computer like this:
iTunes would warn me that the nano would need restoring so I would try and do it on my haunted machine upon which iTunes would freeze like you seen in the picture.
Despite this, I've updated and restored the nano on my father's computer to the latest version without any problems. This though, did not solve my problem in any way.
I can load music to my nano through my old computer (which for me is a real pain and hassle) and the gadget works normally in terms of its disconnected functionality.
I've taken my nano to the local service for repair and they said it was fine. Mercifully, they didn't charge for the diagnostics service (gee, thanks for not ripping me off!).
Here are two screengrabs from my Device Manager
and Devices and Printers screens on my comp:
That is my sad story as far as I can remember. It's most likely something with the drivers or something along those lines though I'm out of ideas at this point.
If you think you have any idea PLEASR HELP, I'M DESPERATE!

Can an swf movie be opened on a specific frame?

When I call up an Flash-generated swf movie in its own
browser window via a navigation bar button, it always open on its
first frame. Is there a way to tell the browser in conjunction with
the getURL command to open at a specific frame other than frame 1?
I can't find an Actionscript code sample that allows this while
using getURL. Or is there some other way -- e.g. appending the swf
file with frame number in its HTML page in some way, using
Javascript, FSCommand, etc?

Linking to a specific frame from JSP page

I am trying to link to site that has frames. I want to load a specific jsp in frame 3. Does anyone know how to pass the target and source values? I have been looking for tutorials unsuccessfully.

You can not point to a specific frame ina document from an external document.Your best bet might be to pass the parameters using URL and on the recieving end write some javascript to parse the url adn if it has a parameter then process that else just load standard document.

Jumping to a specific frame in another movie

I'm wondering how to jump to a specific frame in an external
movie. I'm not using the loadmovie command so I don't think the
_level command will work. I just have two swf movies playing on the
same page. I need to have a button in Movie A when released will go
to a certain frame in Movie B. Thanks!

well this certainly should work if the code is on the main
timeline, and there is nothing else. However when you say
'scrubber' do you mean that your 'testing' the movie by pressing
'enter' while in the IDE, so that you're actually 'seeing' the
playhead move? If this is the case, yes, no actions will execute.
To test the swf file, use Ctrl+Enter (or Command+Enter on Mac) to
run an actual 'test'

Direct link to specific page in page flip swf?

This may have an easy answer, but is there a way to link directly to a specific page in a page-flip swf via direct link from another site/web page/etc.?
If my page flip swf is on myzines.com/2010-08-01.html ...
Is there a way to link from any other web page to the page noted above and directly to page 12 of the swf?
Something like myzines.com/2010-08-01.html#page12 or myzines.com/2010-08-01.html?page=12 perhaps?
Seems like it should be possible, but I'm not seeing it and haven't seen anything in the forums. Any leads would be appreciated.

Button link to a specific frame in time line

Ok I have created my buttons and the content for the specific
frames. I have named the button and given it an instance name. I
have also given my specific frame a name and set that label type to
Name.
Whats the code for turning getting my button to link to a
specific frame?
I've also done the stop() code in each frame as I want it to
stop at each frame until the button is clicked again.
I have more than one button and each will link to a different
frame.
Thanks.

I've duplicated an FLA with exactly the assets you have in
the same places, with the code on the main timeline. And mine
didn't work, just the same problem as you had. The solution I
proposed above works, but it is not the only way (See #2 below).
On Frame 1, select the UIScrollbar. if you look in the
Parameters tab of your UIScrollbar component, you'll notice that
the
scrolltargetName refers to
Instance_0. This is a default instance name assigned by the
Flash compiler, because you did not give your dynamic textfield an
instance, and your UIscollbar is referencing that. Now go to Frame
4. You will find that your dynamic textfield has the same instance
name, and the UIScrollbar is referencing the same instance. Problem
is, you have more than one textfield on more than one frame using
and referencing the same instance name, your UIScrollbars will get
confused as to which textfield is actually "Instance_0". The moment
you click to another frame, you've confused the UIScrollbar(s), so
they never work again.
The solution is simple.
First, put a stop() action on the first frame, if you have
not already done so, so your timeline stays put until you click on
a button.
Then you can solve the problem in one of two ways:
Give your textfields different instance names, and make sure
the
scrolltargetName property of each UIScrollbar refers to its
respective textfield.
Or set the text dynamically, which after all is what a dynamic
textfield is for. Have only one textfield/UIscrollbar combo, on the
first frame, and place code on a keyframe for each section which
changes the
text or
htmlText property of the textfield.
That should work. It did on mine.

Linking to a specific frame from html?

Hello all:
Does anyone know if it is possible to have an html page that
links to a swf file, but ALSO goes to a specific frame or label
within that file? I'm trying to avoid having to start the Flash
file from the very beginning, but I can't say that I've ever seen
this done.
Thanks,
Wayne

The simplest way:
in the HTML you expand the two occurences of "movie.swf" (in
the object and embed tag) to "movie.swf?jump=50", where "jump" is
the variable name and "50" is the frame somewhere in the middle of
your movie.swf that you want to start with.
In the first frame of movie.swf you have actionscript
if(this._framesloaded<jump) {
this.gotoAndPlay(1)}
else {
this.gotoAndPlay(jump)}
Of course, this doesn't check for error conditions and has
other weaknesses, but I hope you get the point.
Good luck
Wolf
