Thank you in advance

Url link in flash page flip book

I am very inexperienced at what I am trying to accomplish.
I have created a flip book in flash. On a page in the book I made a button that is a link to an external url. When I place the the swift file of that page on my webstie, the link works. I have made a link from my homepage to the flipbook. But when I open the flip book the url link does not work.
Does anyone out there know what's wrong?
thanks

If the flip page the swf is in has interactive code asigned to it, such as whatever you use to flip the page, it could be blocking access to any clickable objects in the swf file.

External Link - not opening

At first I thought it was my firewall because I haven't had
this problem before, but I found out it wasn't.
I've tried three browsers with the same result (latest flash
version) (Opera, Firefox, and Internet Explorer), but I still can't
open external links in flash Example: Weather.com's Allergies
Outlook (it says View Complete Pollen Cast) but the link will not
open (unless I Shift-Click). But links that open in a new window
will open just perfectly, links that attempt to open in the same
window (that are external) will not open, no matter what I try to
do. I've disabled Security software, re downloaded and installed
Flash, tried on a different computer (which worked), tried 3
browsers, closed all running (non-essential) processes.
I'm not sure if this would have anything to do with it, but I
did install Vista SP1, then remove it (it didn't work in SP1
either), I'm not sure about before...
Any Suggestions?
If you need them here are system specs:
Operating System: Windows Vista Ultimate
Default Browser: Firefox 2
Firefox Addons installed (should be irrelevant because it
didn't work in IE, and so forth):
Ad Block Plus, Foxmarks, and NoScript.
Security Suite: Kaspersky
Thank You

I agree with OP. There should be a '''setting''' that makes '''all links that can be opened with an app open in the app immediately '''(or show the dialog OP mentioned).
On a slow mobile connection, waiting for the page to load just to be able to click the icon and open it in the app is painful! It takes ages...

Link to external URL from flash site

Is there any way to link to an external URL from your flash
site without having the flashplayer prompt you to change your
settings and allow access to that page? (this only applies to swfs
viewed through a browser)
the only way around this i've found isn't very useful - you
have to put a small xml file on the host server where the page you
want to link to is located. i seriously doubt every site you want
to link to will allow you to put an xml file on their host server
just so you can link to their page. the code in the xml file just
tells flashplayer that the site you are trying to access is safe.
it's called crossdomain.xml
anyone have an answer?
thanks!

Answer
no it doesn't. getURL() causes no security issues unless you
try to open the html locally and (try to) access something on the
internet.
unless your "flash site" is your local computer there is no
security issue. if your local computer is an internet server, you
just need to set the security settings for your local file and give
it permission to access the internet zone.

Can you code a link between html and a particular flash page?

Hi,
I hope this question is not too confusing. I am designing a website in flash CS3 using Action script 2.0 not 3.0 and Flash Player 8. The architecture I used is as follows: I have a menu/main page which loads the swf files of other flash pages. I have a particular flash chatroom page which is loaded by the main page that I would like to be able to link an web address (example ... www.chatroom.com) directly too that particular sub flash page ... rather than going to the main.swf which is what the original web address uses. (I hope your following me).
Technically I know I could link a web address to the chatroom.swf file, but then it would estetically look incomplete since the theme/design of the website is in the main.swf which calls the chatroom.swf.
Thus my question is: is there a way to assign the web address to the chatroom.swf inside the main.swf. I would like to go directly to the chatroom without clicking chatroom on the main.swf menu. I do not know enough Actionscript 2.0 to know if this is possible. I did try to search for the answer but could not find it. If it is possible what script would I need? If it is not possible, any other ideas to get the same effect?
As always, thank you for your help.

I just wanted to clarify how the main page links to the subsequest pages when I said it loads the swf file. The links in the actual menu code are fla files.
(on release) {
_root.toLoad = 'chatroom'
_root.con.play(_currentframe+1);
Then I must publish the files to make swf files for each page which will be loaded into the main menu.
I hope that gives insight to my thinking and helps you answer my question.

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.

Link from flash file/moving not working on a page

I will apologize first for what maybe a very elementary
questions. I was sent an swf file to add to a web page. I got the
movie to run on some of the pages where I inserted it into a
template and the template updated those pages. I think had to
insert it into another page and the movie does not work there. Does
this have something to do with the script in the script folder? A
conflict of some sort?
Also, I need to link the file a URL and putting <a
href> brackets around it is not working. Does the link to the
page have to embedded in the swf file?
Thanks for any help on this.
URL to see pages

wrapping an A HREF tag around a flash .swf object will not
work.
the link has to be "in" the swf, back when it was an FLA file
in flash.
Or- the .swf has to have actionscripting in it so that it
will take a url as
a parameter.
On the flash not showing--
Random observations from a quick look.
There is no \ backslash in a web path or url.
you can usually "get away with it" on a windows server, but
it's incorrect
and something to avoid.

Flash Navigation Not Working (the swf works, but the external links don't)

I used Illustrator and Flash Catalyst to make a navigation bar for my website, but it's not working... I click links and nothing happens. I click one of the links to the sub-menu (the "careers" button and "advertising" button go to other menus) and those work fine, but the links themselves aren't working, even though they were when I first uploaded it...
I've double and triple checked, and they all have the right links associated with them in FC, so any ideas on what I should do to fix it?
The site: http://www.sorean.net
ALSO: Anyone not using Firefox, if you could see if they work for you, I'd much appreciate it.
Anyway, you click on the logo to bring the main menu back up if you're in a sub menu... But I've had to put text-based links above the navigation so that it wouldn't be a huge inconvenience while I'm trying to make it work.
Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
- Amanda

I figured it out... I was trying to use the navigation on multiple layers (sub-folders) of my site, but putting a full URL makes the external links NOT work
like "http://mydomain.com/file.swf" instead of just "file.swf" but when I changed it to NOT include my domain, it works great. ... SO, I did have to put a copy of the swf in each sub-folder, but that's ok, 'cause as long as it works, I'm good. I'm so excited.

Opening external links in the most recently used page

I'm having an issue where external links from Mail or elsewhere are always opening up in the oldest page, IE, the page that was opened first, rather than the most recently used page.
Normally, this isn't that big of a deal, except when the oldest page is minimized, and every time I open a new link, Safari open up that minimized page to load in a new tab.
Is there any way I can fix this?
Thanks!

You can't COMPLETELY remove it, but you can reduce it to one (1) item. Under Preferences>Documents
1 is the minimum and 10 is the maximum. Hard coded, no way to expand or reduce these limits.
The ONLY other option is to disable the "welcome screen" altogether under Preferences>General

Linking a flash button to a html page

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew the best way to link a
flash button to a page in DW?
Thanks

Place this actionscript into the hit area of your flash
button, then export the flash as a .swf and place onto the
dreamweaver page...
on(release){
getURL("YOUR_DESIRED_PAGE.html","_self");
This will open the new html page in the same window. Hope
that helps.

Flash menu doesn't work after opening an external link.

Hi,
I have this problem - I made a simple website with a flash menu, that opens internal links in an iframe. However, I have a few other (not included in the menu) external links, which open in the same iframe. And after I click on one of them and it loads in the iframe, the buttons on the menu stop working. I'm beginning to think it has something to do with the internet explorer, since it works on some computers. But I'm not sure... not very good at this.
I've been searching for an answer here and there, but still haven't found anything. Please, help.
Thank you!

Here it is: http://kiss4eto.is.com/. Click on the Me button, for example. It should work. Then click on the "Addicted to Facebook" link on the right and after that try the Me button again. It doesn't work any more. At least on my computer.
Thanks, again.

Linking Flash Pages

What code do you use to link flash pages in a flash website?
Anything will help!!

Nate, the first thing to do would be some basic reading on
publishing Flash documents (i.e. "converting from FLA to SWF").
Start with the Live Docs here:
http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/8/main/00000805.html
This will help you in producing the SWF file that you can
then place in your HTML template using Dreamweaver.
Good luck!
