How do I create a frame action to launch an HTML document?

I have searched the forums repeatedly and can find no reference to this what so ever.
It was incredibly simple to do this w/ AS2, but I cannot figure out how to do it in AS3.
PLEASE HELP!
I need to have a frame action launch a .html file (call it "time-crunched.html"), and then the flash window should close. That's it. It seems like it should be easy (and it WAS easy in previous versions).
I have already tried using the gotourl feature from AS2, but I keep being told that the functionality has been disabled in the current version.
I am on Windows XP, but I need the Windows projector file to work on XP, Vista, and 7, and the Mac projector file to work on 10.0 forward.
Thanks,
Laura

Thank you for your prompt reply!
Sorry - meant "GetURL." =)
In any case, your solution did not work.
I copied it exactly as you suggested - do I need any additional commands in there?
FSCommand or anything? Or just the single line?
When it "does not work," it simply does not launch anything. The flash .EXE file opens, but nothing else happens. I've tried switching my the defaults on HTML files so they open w/ Firefox, but that did not help either.
Any ideas??

How can I create Droplets using Actions with several Stops?

My Droplets (using Actions but with several Stops) work very nicely when using a single image source. However when using multiple images thing start to go crazy.
At the first stop on the first image a pop-up emerges asking me to continue to the next image or stop. If I select stop I can continue with the Action for this first image and complete the Action on that first photo.
If I select continue it halts the action on that photo at the first stop then opens the 2nd image and repeats the action to the first stop on the next photo then the pop-up appears again and the cycle repeats.
How can I create Droplets using Actions with several Stops?

I don't believe this is possible when starting from Java. I think you need to start with a WSDL to get this to work. I am curious as to why having multiple WSDLs is an issue, would you care to eloborate.
Thanks

How do I create a "frame" around a picture?

I use iphoto for stills then send to Garage Band to add the music track for podcast. I want to add an area on the bottom and on right side of the photo for text or graphics. I want this to be static even though the photo will change. Any suggestions on how this can be done?

In this case I think your only option is to create the frame as part of the picture for each image. Working with GB, or any other program which produces embedded images in podcasts, there is no way to do it in that program as there are in web pages.
I don't know what facilities of this sort iPhoto offers. Your best bet would probably be GraphicConverter, though there are other image editors which will give you the ability to manipulate the image, in particular Photoshop Elements 6 has various enhancement options for picture, probably including frames.

How do I create a custom action to split a PDF into multiple pages in Acrobat DC?

I can create a new action to "organize pages" but I don't see any way of specifying split options. (Split being a member of the Organize Pages subgroup in the main tools section...)

Use JavaScript from the Acrobat SDK Sample script below. Note you will need to change the cPath to a location on your hard drive (e.g. /c/Action Folder/ equals the path on your hard drive "C:\Action Folder").
/* Extract pages to folder */
// Regular expression used to acquire the base name of file
var re = /\.pdf$/i;
// filename is the base name of the file Acrobat is working on
var filename = this.documentFileName.replace(re,"");
try {for (var i = 0; i < this.numPages; i++)
          this.extractPages({
               nStart: i,
               cPath: "/F/temp/"+filename+"_" + i +".pdf"
} catch (e) { console.println("Aborted: " + e) }

How can I create a frame around a text?

I think everything is in the title. I want to create a frame around a text.
Thanks

If what you want is a solid line around the text, set the text in a text box. In the Graphic Inspector click on Stroke and choose Line. In the little menu below that click the arrows and choose the type of line (or dots/dashes) you want. Choose the color (if other than black) and then the weight of the line— from the pt menu. Instead of line you can choose frame, but these don’t always look good with text. To allow some space around the text, go to the Text Inspector and adjust the Inset Margin to your liking.
You can also set text in a shape by inserting a shape from the menu, double clicking in the shape and typing.

I wanted to give the end user five i in put fields in Document search and Four fields in material search. So that the data is retrived from the data base ( DRAW, MARA). all these fields must have search help (F4). after this it should have the drag and drop behavior.

How can I create a Frame & dialog box with a desired shape & look ?

Hellow !
Currently I am writing an application that need your help.
I need a complete code to create a custom JFrame & JDialog.
Objective:
1) The frame & Dialog box might not be in a rectangular shape.
2) Their visible area [ Title bar(With my new icon),outer edge and iconifying,deiconifying & window closing buttons ]
would be as I wish.
As an instance, I mean to say it should looks something like Widows Media Player's(XP version) main window.
My Operating System: Windows XP

I think (I have never tried it) that the following link provides the kind of api you are looking for :
http://www.l2fprod.com/
As far as I know, it's based on the use of a custom look and feel called SkinLF.
But due to the nature of your question and based on the assumption that people here are not going to do all the work for you, I would strongly advise you to start with the Swing tutorial :

How do I create the Resume action on a DVD?

Hi Guys
Please help me: I need to know how to make the resume button to continue a last stopped movie.
Let's say I click Play from the main menu and the movie starts and 2 chapters on the time line get played & I am now at the beginning of the 3rd chapter. And then I realise that my audio is 2.0 stereo.
Then I press stop on my remote control and go to the audio setup submenu from the main menu to select Dolby 5.1 surround sound. Let's say I created links (on the audio setup submenu) that say Main Menu and Resume Movie.
How do I get to movie to go back the last chapter played (i.e. chapter 3) and continue from there, after I chose Resume Film with my remote?
I have seen this on commercial DVDs & I was just wondering how they do that!
Thanks in advance

Thanks for your reply. I'm using Encore cs3. I didn't know that this was as easy as making a Resume button on a menu, and just choosing Resume from the Link drop down list.
Thanks

How can I create a frame tool in photoshop similar to the frame tool in InDesign? and fitting the image in the frame tool proportionally just like in InDesign?

I am working on a project and I know it can be done in InDesign but I am halfway done in Photoshop so I just need to know if there is a way to do this similar trick.

One way is to use Select>Color Range
Make a new Color Fill Layer>White
(Layer>New Fill Layer>Solid Color)
Put a new color fill layer below>black
Just invert the layer mask on the top fill layer for the opposite effect.

How do you create different headers on each page of a document in icloud pages?

I have to have a different header on my title page than the rest of my paper. I believe I did it once before but it may have been in the regular pages program on my Macbook Pro. I was wondering if there was a way to do it on the icloud and ipad versions of pages due to I do most of my work away from my laptop.
Thanks!

I found on my computer, if you click on the header you can change it on each page. There is also a place in Set Up under Sections at the bottom of the page that has a drop down to create a new Section either 'Starting with this section' or 'After this section'. Hope this helps. Also at the top there is a place under Headers & Footers to choose either 'hide on first page of section' or 'match previous section'. I believe if you deselect the 'match previous section' you can easily change the header or footer for each page.

How can I Create a multilevel bulleted list in RH HTML 7?

Hi!
I'm trying to create a multilevel bulleted list in RH 7 (HTML) but keep messing it up. I can change the bullets and use some from the gallery, but when I indent to create a second level, bullets are the same. If I change bullets style, I change the whole set up. Do I have to manually create a bulleted sublevel amd apply it manually everytime?
By looking at the available menu in the Styles window, nothing seems to guide me towars automatically creating different levels. Am I missing something?
Thanks for your help.

EDIT
Oh, dopey me! Peter just reminded me, offline, that this feature wasn't even in RH 7. Duhhh...guess I just blew by that little qualifier.
So, the revised answer is: you couldn't in RH 7, and you still can't in RH 8.
That feature is not working properly. Please submit a bug report to Adobe; the more they hear from us the better.
Good luck,
Leon
