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?

  • Flash drives and sleep issues

    I'm not sure if this is a Tiger problem or a G4 issue, but I'll start here.
    I plug 1Gb flash drives into an Adaptec FW+USB2 card in my Quicksilver running 10.4.11 and the computer will go to sleep fine. Read on.
    With a SanDisk drive when I wake up the computer it gives me an error message about the drive not having been properly removed, but the computer does wake up and the drive icon is still present and the drive appears to be okay. Apart from having to click to remove the warning message nothing seems to be the problem. Okay, I can live with that.
    I do the same thing with an Imation 1Gb flash drive and the computer will not wake up. I have to use the small reset button to reboot the computer.
    Both drives are FAT16 format because I use them to regularly transfer files between the Quicksilver and a Windows machine. The only difference I notice between the drives is that when I use the Imation drive a file or folder or something named "EA" briefly appears in the Finder window where all the regular files are listed. There isn't any icon and there's nothing under date, size, or kind. If I click on the EA it disappears, but reappears each time I attach the drive.

    Update and answer my own question.
    I re-formatted the Imation drive as FAT16 (what is was already) using disk Utility and the strange file has disappeared. Must have been something to do with the factory formatting.
    I also read that the only thing to do about Flash drives and post-sleep kernal panic is to make sure you disconnect the drive before sleep. Either that or get a card that will identify a flash drive as being attached and prevent sleep, or to disable sleep mode.

  • Flash Links and IE7

    Hi,
    Please forgive me...these may be novice questions, but...I am
    preparing a new web page for myself in Dreamweaver MX, and want to
    incorporate a Flash animation I made in Flash MX. The Flash
    animation contains a button with a link to a web site. The link
    works perfectly in the Flash player, but as soon as I embed it in a
    table in Dreamweaver, then check the page in IE7, the link no
    longer works (but the animation still does). My questions are:
    a) Why do the links work in the Flash player, but not in IE
    7, and how can I fix them so that they do work in a browser?
    b) When I open the web page containing the Flash animation in
    IE7, and slide my mouse over the area, a visible border appears
    around the part of the table containing the animation. How do I get
    rid of that border 'effect'? I want the animation to just blend in
    with the rest of the page.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank
    you...........frank

    This is possibly because Microsoft has recently changed the
    way their browsers handle flash. There is a neat solution however,
    using FlashTag.js.
    Get
    http://www.macromedia.com/go/flashjavascript/
    and then implement your flash in HTML using something like:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var tag = new FlashTag('/folder/example.swf', 140, 120,
    '7,0,19,0');
    tag.write(document);
    </script>
    <noscript>
    <object
    classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
    codebase="
    http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0"
    width="140"
    height="120">
    <param name="movie" value="/folder/example.swf" />
    <param name="quality" value="high" />
    <embed src="/folder/example.swf" quality="high"
    pluginspage="
    http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
    type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
    width="140"
    height="120">
    </embed>
    </object>
    </noscript>
    I copied pasted from a movie that was 140x120 so you'll have
    to change the heights in the three relevant places. You'll also
    have to link into the FlashTag.js file in your HTML head, using for
    example:
    <script type="text/javascript"
    src="/scripts/FlashTag.js"></script>
    Hope this helps.

  • Can I create a Flash button and use it to navigate to the next slide of a PowerPoint Presentation?

    Hello all,
    I've been having a bit of a hard time understanding how to get a button which I have created in Flash to navigate to the next slide of the PowerPoint presentation which it has been added into. I'm fairly new to Flash, so I believe that this is slightly out of my natural skill range, so hopefully someone will be able to help.
    I understand that I somehow need to make use of fscommand in ActionScript, but I'm not sure how I can get Flash and PowerPoint to communicate between themselves. If anyone could write a walkthrough on how to do this, I would be bery grateful.
    I'm using Flash MX 2004 7.0 and Powerpoint 2003.
    Thanks

    Hi. Why not to make the whole presentation in FLASH? What you have to do is to import all the slides inside FLASH. Then place one by one in the stills and then create the code to make the stills advance and show the slides by means of the button. The code for the button goes as follows:
    on (release) {
        nextFrame();
    to introduce this code make sure you press the button and no the frame.
    Then in order to make the presentation open and cover the screen, no matter how big it is, you need to enter the following code in the first frame:
    stop();
    fscommand ("showmenu",false);
    fscommand ("fullscreen", true);
    You will need also a button to quit the aplication. This is the code:
    on (release) {
         stop();
    fscommand ("quit");
    Now write all of this in your application and let me know your experience. MamenFLASH$

  • Gray frame around flash buttons and more...

    Hi,
    1.I've used flash buttons in my home page,the problem is
    that when u view the page with explorer u see a gray frame around
    the buttons...
    It is so ugly...some one knows how to fix it without using
    the code?
    2. Another problem, the behevior "show pop up menu" is not
    valid,
    i've used it before on that page....
    i tried everything... i saved it ,linked it...
    i dont know what is the problem...
    thank you....if you can help
    Racheli

    I'm experiencing the same problems with my flash buttons. As
    you hover over them initially, a gray border surrounds them and an
    alt tag pops up that says "click here to activate this control."
    This confuses some of the visitors, becuase they perceive this as
    if the buttons do not work. I suspect it may be a browser specific
    problem...are there any quick fixes for this? Thanks for the help.

  • Flash buttons and History.back

    Hi all
    I am using a flash button created in DW studio 8.
    But want to use the javascript:history.back() for the link.
    I put in the link textfield javascript:history.back()
    But that don't work how can i fix that please?
    Thanks for all that can help me
    Hugo

    I wouldn't recommend the use of Flash buttons period.
    They cannot be spidered.
    They do not appear when the visitor doesn't have Flash
    plugin.
    They are not usable by screen assistive devices.
    They have link and path problems after they have been
    inserted on your page.
    Your best bet is to forget they exist and use an ordinary
    text or graphic
    link.

  • Flash buttons and music

    Hello Flashers-
    I bought a flash button template to play an audio file on a
    website I'm working on. Now that I have bought the button, how do I
    get it to play the audio file I want?
    Here is the button set I bought:
    Flash button
    template
    I appreciate any help I can get. Thanks.

    the audio file is an mp3 file. i am trying to put a flash
    'play' button on our html site for a 30 second preview for a song.
    if i can just embed the audio in a swf, then that would be awesome,
    but i'm not sure how to do that. i'm also not familiar with loading
    it externally, so either way i'm ill-equipped to make this work. i
    assume if it is an external file then it needs to be loaded.
    i appreciate any info you can share.

  • Issue with Flash 8 and IE7

    I have a page that contains a Flash movie that is an flv
    player. There is a
    short intro and then there is a list of videos. Clicking on a
    video link
    plays the video.
    When viewing the page in IE7, when any nav link on the page
    is clicked
    (there's a nav in the header and a left hand nav), it starts
    the first flash
    video downloading although it doesn't play and the page will
    not switch to
    another page until the entire first video is downloaded. Any
    body know what
    is going on and how to fix it? The nav links have nothing to
    do with the
    flash player on the page.
    Thanks
    -mark

    Actually, I've figured out it's a progressive download cache
    issue. Happens in all browsers. I used he flvplayback component
    when creating the flash player. Once the videos are caached, the
    other links on the page will work. Is there any way to stop the
    browser video caching from freezing the browser on that page until
    the videos have cached?

  • Flash Buttons and UI Components need double click to work. Any Solution?

    Hi,
    I have just finished making an application for Kiosk in Flash. However while testing I noticed that the buttons I used and UI components like textfield, textarea, radiobuttons, etc need to be touched twice to make them function. Can anyone tell why this happens and how to solve this issue? Its very frustrating for a user to keep clicking on the component to make it active first and then make it work.
    Note: Is it like Flash UI components need time to get active on screen and then they function?
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for the reply ReshapeMedia.
    What I want to say is I have a Flash exe file which contains feedback form for customers. This exe is displayed on Kiosk where user can interact with it using touch screen. The problem here is - when user touches (clicks) on the input field on screen or selects a radio button, it takes him several attempts to do so. In other words, user keeps on touching and tapping to activate the input field first and then somehow it gets activated and after multiple touches it allows them to enter the data/ radio button is selected and other buttons functions.
    This obviously adds to users frustration.
    This application is not loaded in IE so there is no browseer involved here.
    You mentioned a script trigger a mouse click. What is that? (I have addEventListener on my buttons already) Kindly explain a bit. Thanks a lot.

  • Using a Flash button and rollover captions simultaneously

    Hi,
    I have a button that I created in Flash. When hovered over, the button turns a different color. I'd like to use this button simultaneously with the rollover caption feature in Captivate, but it looks like I can only get one or the other to work, depending which is stacked on top.
    Anyone have any workaround ideas, besides creating each button individually in Flash and adding the text in the hover state?
    I'm using CP6.
    Thanks!

    Hi there
    Why use Flash just to create a button rollover? Captivate offers Image buttons where you specify up to three images used for rollovers. And with the Captivate button you could enable the Hint caption to provide the rollover you are seeking.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Creating Buttons and Audio issues in DVDSP3

    Ok, here is what I want to do:
    I just want to create a simple DVD of my commercial reel. When the DVD is put in I want music to play. Then, I want to create a button in Photoshop and use it to play my commercials.
    My issues:
    I can't get the music to play and have a custom button on the same menu. I can't get the "highlight" portion of the button to work with the PSD file I created for the button.
    It seems like it would be so simple. What I am I doing wrong?

    Hi - welcome to the discussions.
    From what you have written I'd say you are using a photoshop layer based menu and if so, you won't be able to use audio on it... they don't support it.
    You'll be better off creating a standard overlay style menu instead, which will support the audio.
    Alternatively, create a track and use a piece of slug as the video (or a still image) and place the audio in that track. Set that to be the start up item for the disc and then get the end jump to go to a menu with buttons to play the commercials.
    Kind of depends on how you want to display this item, I guess...

  • Sleep/wake button and artwork issues .. any advice appreciated

    I recently went through all my songs and put the correct album artwork and such. After I synced everything, the artwork doesn't match up correctly on my Ipod and computer. Say if I choose a song, it will give me the correct song, but a different artist's artwork. It's not every song but a lot of them are incorrect.
    Also, today, my sleep/wake button stopped working. It won't let me put it to sleep or turn it off. I can only make it come up by pressing the home button. At random times it will ask me if i want to turn it off. Actually, I just tried it and the screen started flashing. So, to me, it's like it wants to work, it's just struggling. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks

    i am not sure how to fix the sleep/wake button
    the same thing is happening with mine
    i believe it is some kind of technical failure
    i restored my itouch hoping that it would work, it didnt
    to put it to sleep i put the autolock on one minute so it staying on would not be a problem
    also when i tried to put it to sleep it didnt
    10 seconds after i pressed it the ipod began taking screen shots
    any advice would be greatly appreciated

  • CSS and IE7 Issues
