Flash buttons take to different links
Hey!
My problem is:
http://ajuvaba.planet.ee/extras/poetryslam.swf
When I press buttons, then it starts animation. What I must
do, when I wanna that after the animation the button takes me to
HTML side.
For example: when I push Home button, first it plays the
animation and then takes me to HOME html page. And when I push
media button, it takes me to MEDIA html side. It must be also in
same window.
I tried different ways, but Flash opens all the links same
time. I wanna, when I push media button, then it takes me to MEDIA
html page or when I push HOME button, then I takes me to HOME html
page. When I but the links to the end of animation, then it opens
all the links on the same time :S

Thanks for reading!
Any ideas?
Can you show any code related to these problems?

How do you make 2 buttons that have different link in one form?

Replacing Flash Buttons/ Preview Issues
I have old Flash Navigation Buttons on my website from years ago. I have been trying to replace them. What would be some good and simple ways to do this? It appears that the programs (DW5, DW6, and DWCC) won't let me do this. For example, I deleted the flash button that says "About" and then typed in new word "About" instead and linked it in a simply way to the "About" page.
However, when I preview this in browsers, my flash button/s are still appearing in the preview window browser, even though already deleted many times in my Design View. The preview page has also showed all sorts of disorganization and chaos for these deletions of old navigation buttons which are not consistent with what is displaying on my working Design copy window. Any suggestions? (Mac Os X 10.8.4)Thank you all for your suggestions! I have emptied my cache, cookies, and refreshed my browser window. It looks like one button "Resources" in the left navigation panel managed to disappear from all pages on the website-- yet I only made changes to a select few pages. However, many of the changes I made are not showing up yet on the test page.
I am not that familiar with code view so I use Design view mostly. Yet, I did split the view and see the selected area in the code responsible for a flash button. I tried to delete that in code view, as well.
Here is my test page. In design view, I left most of the old navigation buttons intact, except for the bottom three.
I tried to eliminate the bottom three flash buttons and replaced with linked words "About", "Resources", and "Home" (see below). Yet, on the web page, only the "Resources" button has disappeared, and the words I typed in to replace are not displaying yet.

case-sensitive and your code is incorrect. that should be:
on(rollOver){
getURL("Page.html"); // assuming Page.html is correct.

Hello, I am having difficulty with the flash button. Whenever
my flash buttons are clicked the links are opening up in new tabs
within the browser, rather than in my frameset. I have the target
for the flash buttons specified to "mainFrame" within my frameset ,
however this is not working. Are there attributes that define
whether the link opens up a new tab or stays within the frameset?
Thanks!
-RobFlash buttons and framesets! My two favorite things to hate.
Gad.
Any modifications to the targeting of the Flash button would
have to be done
either at the time you create it, or by editing the parent
FLA file. If you
created the button in DW, then that second option is not
available to you
because there is no parent FLA file.
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...
The decision to use or not use frames should be based on a)
your site's
needs, and b) your willingness to accept the potential
problems that frames
can create for you as developer and maintainer of the site
and for your
visitors as casual users of the site.
I am down on frames because I believe that they create many
more problems
than they solve.
Judging from the posts here, and the kinds of problems that
are described,
the kind of person most likely to elect to use frames is also
the kind of
person most likely ill-prepared fo solve the ensuing problems
when they
arise. If you feel a) that you understand the problems and b)
that you are
prepared to handle them when they occur, and c) that you have
a need to use
frames, then by all means use them.
As far as I know, the most comprehensive discussions of
frames and their
potential problems can be found on these two links -

I hope someone can help me with this weird problem. I've been
using Flash for button links for a while but for some reason
lately, I've been having this strange problem. When you type in the
url for the site, the Flash buttons will work as far as the roll
overs and such, but the links do not work. Yet, if you click on an
html link, it will take you to that page and from then on, the
Flash buttons will work just fine. I can't understand why this
would be happening. Basically, the Flash links work fine unless you
type in the url. What's happening? Here is the link to what I'm
talking about. Try typing in the url first. You will see that the
Flash buttons don't take you to the linked webpage. Then try
clicking on an html link, and then a Flash link from there. Thanks
for the help!
http://www.surecarehomehealth.comOkay, I've discovered that this only seems to happen if you
type surecarehomehealth.com without the "
http://www.". But why wouldn't it work with
just typing "surecarehomehealth.com"? -
Flash buttons showing differently in browsers
I just used some simple, built-in Flash buttons (with no
spaces) for my nav bar in DW CS3. They look great and close
together in IE 7, but there is a gap between the buttons in Safari
and Firefox. Any simple explanation? Is it just how different
browsers render flash/html?
Thanks,
BrianIf you want to use Flash for navigation, consider this -
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 usually a very bad idea for these reasons - and for
these reasons,
Adobe has removed Flash buttons and Flash text from CS4.

Links on Flash buttons ( CS3 )
Hi pros and newbies ,
I have a question regarding linking flash symbols /
buttons.What I mean is : after creating dynamic / interactive
symbol in Flash I want to add link to it so any help will be
welcomed.Also , After inserting "Media Flash button" in dreamweaver
and make a link on it - the browsers ask ( after cliking on it )
what program they should open it with - ? Why don't the links open
in new tabs after clicking on Flash buttons ? Thanks for any
answers.So you have a button in Flash and you want it to take you to
a url when clicking on it?
Here is a quick example of how to do this by applying
actionscript to the button itself. When you have the button on the
stage, select it on the stage and then go into your Actions panel
to add the actionscript code at the end of this post. You can view
the FLA for this by downloading it
here.
Here is the actionscript which needs attached to your
button: -
10 flash buttons each needin linking to seperate urls in html page
I have a group of 10 flash buttons build in flash as a single
flash element. I am using this in a html page however need each
button on the flash to link to a different htm url. For some reason
I cant make it work.
Could someone pease help me in how to do it. The webpage is
www.kids-active.co.uk and it is the buttons down the left hand
side."abdezines" <[email protected]> wrote in

"option b" will probably be your easiest solution...
using different symbols for each state:
Off - frame 1: off state of your button
Over - frame 2: animated version of your movieclip
Down - frame 3: down state of your button
Hit... etc. -
Flash button link will not work in CS4
Can anyone walk me through step by step to get a flash button link to work in CS4? I tries action scripts 2 and 3... I cut and pasted a bunch of code on line, watched tutorials, and no matter what i do, the link won't work in CS4. The button looks and works fine, but won't go to the web site ot web page after clicking on it.
At this point, I am so confused, i think it would be better if someone walked me through step by step. My email is [email protected] I can email the button is that would help. Thanks.
Steve.Hi,
This issue is fixed in Encore CS5.
Thanks,

I have a flash button link using actionscript 3.0. The animation is a fade in of a logo. The problem is that the button is only a link during the animation, ie. when the logo has fully faded in it stops becoming a link. Here is the actionscript code i am using, does anyone know where i am wrong? Thank you so much.
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
myButton.addEventListener(
MouseEvent.CLICK, myButtonFunction);
function myButtonFunction(event:MouseEvent):void {
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://flightswitch.com/home.html");
navigateToURL(request, "_self");Hi,
If the logo animation is completely fade then the link is not enabled?
Is it?
Disable the logo button after it fade.

I am also new to Flash. I made a Flash button (in Flash 8u)
that I put on my Dreamweaver created web page. I can export it to
Dreamweaver, but I am definitely missing something. It is probably
quite simple, but I can't get the button to link to another file in
my folder. The best I can do is to have the button get a url, but
it does that automatically upon opening the web page that has the
Flash button on it. I want the Flash button to go to the web page
(or file folder would be better) only when the button is clicked
on. I have tried various versions of the action script to get it to
work, but obviously I am not doing something correctly. I do not
understand writing code very well. Any help is very much
appreciated. Thanks.This method is the preferred method: Give your button an
instance name of
myButton. Then, add the following in the actions panel to the
main timeline
on frame one:
myButton.onRelease=function(){
getURL("yourURL");
