Flash anchors and html links

forgive my ignorance, i am new to all this...
i have made a flash movie that i want to be able to link to
from an external html file. i managed to get this to work by using
flash anchors - not as hard as i would have thought, hurrah! but
when i use the links, while it jumps to the correct spot in my
movie, the rest of the buttons in my flash movie stop working so i
can't navigate within it any longer.
i don't understand why this happens because the movie works
fine when i don't access it via the html links..
help!!!

Thanks for response.
Yea you all are right I have the stand alone version. Looking through the different versions link -> http://store.businessobjects.com/store/bobjamer/en_US/DisplayCategoryProductListPage&CategoryID=55985400
What version would I need to enable flash compiling. At this point I can live with PPT compiling, but would like to know how much I would need to spend if I need the option.
Thanks,
Arun

Tabbing issues - form fields and HTML links

I have a few HTML links in the top of a page with a form starting half way down the page. When using the tab order, I am able to specify tab order no problem in the form fields but when previewing or using the PDF and tabbing through, the tab order gets thrown out of wack and jumps up to the HTML links from tab order, 1 -2 HTML - HTML - 3- 4- so on... I am unable to scpecify a tab order for the HTML links as it gives no option. I have tried to send the text field to a back layer but it does nothing. Is there anything I can do to correct this?

For many people submit by e-mail can never work, because their PC is
not set up to send email. For example, countless millions use only
Hotmail, Gmail, Yahoo or similar.
It's also possible you set options (like "submit whole PDF") that
don't work with the free Reader.
It's best to think of "submit by e-mail" as something to help you in
the prototyping before moving on to a proper web-based solution.

Shed graphics and html link bug

When I link my shed graphics to html links the links do not
stay, but instead changes to a macro. I was able to do this in my
last compile but that was in RoboHelp 6.
Alycia

Thanks, I tried it you way and it looks like I am getting the same thing. Here is my version of your code:
<jsp:useBean id="linkParams" class="java.util.HashMap"/>
<c:set target="${linkParams}" property="userId" value="${user.userId}"/>
<c:set target="${linkParams}" property="firstName" value="${user.firstName}"/>
<c:set target="${linkParams}" property="lastName" value="${user.lastName}"/>
<pdk-struts-html:link action="/showUser.do" name="linkParams">
<font class="UnSelectedTabText"><bean:write name="user" property="email"/></font>
</pdk-struts-html:link>
Which returns this link, again with the repeated values:
https://hostname/portal/page?_pageid=53,36325,53_36329&_dad=portal&_schema=PORTAL&_piref53_36355_53_36325_36329.strutsAction=%2FshowUser.do%3FuserId%3Dmsidoti%26amp%3BfirstName%3DMichael%26amp%3BlastName%3DSidoti&userId=msidoti&firstName=Michael&lastName=Sidoti
Anyone else have any idea? Its looking like a bug in the PDK to me.

Target Flash Movieclip from HTML Link - Feasible?

Is it possible to target a specific movieclip within an swf
that's embedded on an external html page using an HTML link? Or is
this a stretch? It seems like this would be feasible but I've hit a
wall on this one.

No. Google search for FLV grabbers.

Linking between Flash, pdf and html

How to link from Flash to certain page in pdf document
displaying in web browser?
this is not working:
on (release) {
getURL("interfaces.pdf#example", "_self");
neither: #nameddest=example, #page=2
This works though from html, but only first time. If you surf
beck and then go to the same link it doesnt navigate to that page!
Any idea very appreciated!
Thanx

Hi Raymond,
To respond to your question:
Would I have to create two regions with each region the same chart one in Flash and one in HTML and Hide/Show the region depending on the platform I am running eg iPAD or Desktop?
No, this isn't necessary at all. One chart region with a "Chart Rendering" setting of "Flash Chart" on the Chart Attributes page will do the trick. With APEX 4.2, we introduced HTML5 chart support using AnyChart, our existing supplier of Flash charts in APEX. One of the great features of their new HTML5 charting support is how they handle the rendering of a chart. If you take a look at AnyChart's documentation on the rendering options available as part of their HTML5 support, http://www.anychart.com/products/anychart/docs/users-guide/migration-guide.html#from-5.1.x-to-6.x-rendering-types, there are 4 possible rendering options available. We declaratively support two of those options in APEX:
AnyChart Rendering Option       Associated APEX "Chart Rendering" setting
FLASH_PREFERRED                 Flash Chart
SVG_ONLY                        HTML5 ChartSo if you choose to generate a "Flash Chart" in APEX 4.2, AnyChart will handle the rendering of that chart for you, depending upon whether Flash is found on the device or not. Where Flash is detected, a Flash chart is rendered, however if Flash isn't detected (e.g. on devices such as an iPad), then a HTML5 chart will be rendered. So there's nothing additional for you to do - no need for two regions on your page with two different charts. If you choose to generate a "HTML5 Chart", then a HTML5 chart will always be rendered - this is no fallback to Flash with this option.
I hope this helps to clarify things for you.

Hilary

Anchors and visited links

I have some in-page links (anchors in xhtml). I have a
visited look to them. This all works fine in Firefox, each one
individually changes when visited independant of others. When I use
IE6 and I change site pages I find that all the in-page links on
ALL pages have been set to visited! Does anyone know why?
<div class="leftsideCol">
<ul>
<li class="title">In-Page links</li>
<li><a href="#contact">Contact

I suspect its to do with the'#' as when there is a # on its

Flash navigation and html files

I have a Flash navigation banner. The navigation banner
contains seven buttons. Each button when clicked goes to different
frames in the Flash movie. So, the first interaction is to make the
movie to go to a particular frame, which I was able to do easily.
On those frames, I also would like to load or link to HTML page.
Like frame 10 will be page1.htm, frame 18 will be page2.htm so on
and so forth. How do I link .htm files and the single navigation
bar where each button would go to a specific frame and play the
frame? I don’t want to use frames in my html docs. Is there
any other solution? Please help!!
Thank you in advance.
FA

Thank you for reply. I appreciate it. So, if I understand
correctly:
I would embed the navbar.swf in all my html files. Then Each
button would go to each html pages (Like page1.htm page2.htm
etc...) Then I use your code in my html file right? Like each html
file will have the following code:
<param name="movie" value="nav.swf?frame=page2">
Is that how it works. Sorry for not being able to your
answer.
Thank you very much again

Flash nav inserting html links into div -example-

I have made a flash navigation bar and I want it to link to
the pages on the same page:
http://www.cbsanswer.com/framecomeon.htm
Of course I understand frames are outdated. I have read
through CCS and read about SSI, but I cannot find how to open
content into a Div. You can see what my objective is when you visit
the website above.
Two problems:
1.) What is the codeing for linking a flash button to a
corresponding div or frame? (I tried programing the MANUFACTURING
link to open in the _Parent frame and than tried the name of the
frame "mainFrame".)
2.) Can I make sure that the entire navigation is viewable? I
had to put this stupid scroll bar in.
I appreciate any advice as I have already checked out every
book on the subject and spent two days searching the internet.

Flash Player and HTML

Client is looking to display some videos and information
within a flash
player. Since flash files cannot be read well by search
engines, it is
possible to have the flash player generate either an
html/text or RSS file
along with the video file? Thus I would anticipate that when
a video and
information about say an Inn is created/published that an
html/text/rss file
is also generated that describes what is in the video file?
Is this possible? If it is, can someone please point me to
some
documentation?
Thanx
David

No. Flash Player cannot render or generate a file. To create
files you
would need the assistance of a serverside script such as cfm,
php, asp, cgi
or perl.
You can manually input into the html code the text and any
other information
you like that is used in the swf just before the object tag.

Flash navigation and HTML forms

Wondering if any one can help. Whenever I use an html form on
an html page, my flash navigation will not show up. The area where
it should be is blank and my browser status bar says that there are
two items remaining (my flash navs). The browser stays like this
indefinately, not completely loading the page.
Any suggestions ?
Thanks,
Elise

Flash menus and html

Hi. I have a question that I hope won't be too complicated. I
have two Flash objects (A Top horizontal bar and a Flash menu)
inside a number of html web pages: <
http://www.mikelrouse.com/>
What I'd like is that the Flash objects not reload every time
you selct a new page. I think there are two ways to do this: 1.
Have the whole site as a Flash document (probably to difficult for
me right now) or
2. I've seen sites where a new html page is loaded but the
menus and/or Flash opjects seem to "stay in place", meaning they're
not reloading each time.
Can anyone tell me if there is a way to do this in
Dreamweaver?
I would oh so grateful. Thanks in advance!

Go to the Flash forum for this.

Flash Projector and Html together

Hello, what I want to do is to create a CD with a Website
that I have already done using html and flash. The problem is that
I want this CD to work in computers without Flash Player installed.
What if I create a flash projector movie that runs getUrl( )
and that html file contains flash animations, will people be able
to see them even if they do not have flash player installed?
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Raf

you can include the exe installer for the user.
Have the exe projector start, than ask whether they have or
not the player and
if they don't you could use fscommand exec to call it from cd
and install.
Macromedia allow downloads if the players for cd
distribution, you just need
to fill up a form to get the licensing which is an instant
process.
you could also have HTML with detection to check for the
player if they were
not sure whether is it or not install.
I have been doing the very same for years, flash projector as
splash screen
with all kind of add ons required for the CD, from flash
players to adobe reader
installer.

Flash image and html pages

I do have an SWF sequence of images in the main html page. In
the second page I do have sections. Each section has a title of an
image of the SWF file. The role of this section is to describe the
image.
I trying to whenever I click on each image of the SWF in the
main page, I should be directed to its description in the second
page, meaning, that the second page should be loaded and its scroll
down bar should go down and stop where the specific section
(describing the image I’ve just clicked on) starts.

How to: Add Internal anchors to a PDF and then link from an external webpage?

Hi,
I work in email marketing and create html emails that we send through our own web based system. I am just wondering if it is possible at all to create internal anchors with unique urls that I can then link to from my html email as a hyperlink?
The client has created the PDF and I am wondering if I can create the anchors and when linking to these anchors from my email, it downloads the file and opens to that specific anchor location?
Thanks in advance.

I seem to having a new issue with this task. Thanks to Bernd I have managed to create named destinations within the PDF document. From there I have then created the email and linked the pdf url with the destination tag to open to that location. However what we're finding now is that once the PDF has been downloaded once, if you go back to the email and select another link it opens the PDF in the last viewed state.
This client has created one PDF containing many different articles. In the email she has created a table of contents and wants to link from each listed article to that destination in the PDF. But once you have clicked on one link, shut down browser, go back to the email and select another link it just opens what you were viewing last. Is this a cache issues? Are we using the named destination method in the correct manner?
We tried suggesting, linking once to the PDF and then from the PDF creating a table of contents with internal anchors however the client doesn't want this.
Suggestions?

Named Anchors and the HTML doc

Normally, when using the the default "Flash Only" setting in the HTML publish settings, you can set the dimensions to 100 x 100 percent. This will make the Flash movie fill the browser window and resize with the browser.
I'm using named anchors and am using the "Flash with Named Anchors" setting in the HTML publish settings. Everything else is the same as when I use the "Flash Only" template. However, when I publish this HTML document it is not filling the browser window correctly. Instead, the movie is being displayed as if I had set the movie size to 100 x 100 pixels instead of percent. In other words, the Flash movie is squeezed into a size of 100 x 100 pixels. Something is causing it to misinterpret percent as pixels.
I've looked at the HTML document and it correctly says width="100%" height="100%". This problem occurs in Firefox 3.6. Everything displays correctly in IE8 and Safari 5. Thank you in advance to anybody with advice or a solution.

It has nothing to do with what Dreamweaver will let you do
nor not do, it has to do with what you the panels are "told" to do
in certain situations. In this case you want to open a specific
panel, preferably based upon the anchor name that you're already
using. Take a look at the URL Utilities sample page, in particular
at the last example:
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/utils/URLUtilsSample.html
This means you'd need to get the full Spry download:
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/home.html
If you wanted, you could add a query string parameter like
the above example does, but that might mean changing a lot of
links.
Or you could modify the example code above to "slice" out the
first letter of the anchor and figure out the index of the tab to
show (they use a 0 based index, so 'a' would 0 and 'z' would be 25.
Try the following:
<script type="text/javascript">
