How to load flash movies in a "series"

Basically, I have 5 external swf movies.
I want to load them on another swf container one after
another, with the container being able to detect the last frame of
a certain movie and load the next randomly. I can load them easily
by individually assigning the length of each movie into the
container.
But the problem is that the external movies varies in lengh.
I want to be able to update an external movie and the container
would still be able to detect the last frame of it.
Hope someone can help. Thanks in advance.

i would create 2 arrays. one with the SWF names, and one with
interval times based on the length of the movies, then use a for
loop to load the movies into the container based on setInterval...
you can try using _totalframes if that is going to be to difficult,
but im not sure how successful that will be.

Loading flash movie manually

Hello
ISorry to say this but I am a newbie in Flash.
I have made a flash movie with playback control.
I hosted it on my website but the problem is whenever someone
visit the website it loads automatically even if you don't press
play.
I was just wondering how i can make the video starts loading
only after somebody press play. It is eating my bandwidth at the
moment everytime somebody visits my website because it loads
automatically even if you don't press play.
Do I have to edit the fla or flv? and how?
Thank you for your help!

craete two different swf one with play back control and other
with all main content. And just load playpack swf first and write a
code on play button to load content swf like
play.onPress=function(){
loadMovie("content.swf","_root");
}

Did you upload the Flash movie (the SWF file)? Doesn't appear
to be on
your server.

How to center flash movie in browser window

Can anyone explain how to horizontally center my Flash movie in the web browser window after publishing?
A bit of background:
I was able to achieve this using <center></center> tags a few years ago. But I have since upgraded to CS5 and I understand that this old method is now obsolete.
I have found a few threads/forums that address this, but I know nothing about HTML and these threads don't help me because they assume you have more knowledge than I possess. When opening up the index.html file in Dreamweaver I can't find anything that looks vaguely familiar to what is being discussed. I have found some code samples using <div></div> tags but have no idea where to place it.
So I will need it explained to me in a step by step fashion, including which file I need to fix and what program I should use. Code samples will be very welcome if you can tell me exactly where it goes.
Thanks in advance...

Just realized that there is no scrolling functionality with the .swf generated from the new CS5. Can anyone help out by providing revised code for centering and scrolling?
I found something elsewhere in the forums that worked for both centering and scrolling that worked fine yesterday, but upon visiting my site today for testing, it did not allow the scrolling, and centering did not work in Firefox. Tested both Safari and Firefox on 2 Macs running Snow Leopard.
Again, much appreciated - nice to visit forums where people are interested in helping instead of screaming at each other. Will visit the Illustrator or Indesign forum to see if I can help out someone there...

How to have Flash movie resize with rest of webpage

Hi,
I ran a search for this but couldn't find anything. Is there code I can write into my webpage (using dreamweaver) that will make my flash movie get larger along with the rest of my webpage when the viewer zooms their internet explorer 8 browser? Here's a link to an example. Looks fine when page is viewed at 100% but above that everything zooms except the movie.
www.empowerments.net/canary.html
Thanks for your help,
James

Thanks again for your time but it seems we're not on the same page (pun intended!).
I do appreciate you trying to help me and I understand how easy it is to misread the question perameters.
When your reply said "The Zoom does create a white space because it "zooms" the background image and text only.
The Flash content isn't set to zoom with it apparently"
it actually just stated what I said was the problem in my original post.
I've already said the flash content looks fine at 100% and is only a problem when zoomed in by the internet explorer browser.
The help I'm looking for is maybe a tip on some html code (like rescale = true or something) that I can write into the web page (via Dreamweaver) that tells the flash content to scale up with the rest of the page when zoomed.
Does anyone else have any suggestions?
Thanks again for your time and willingness, Mac=Win=Me!

How to watch flash movies on ipad

how do you watch a flash movie on the ipad

Perhaps your first post? If you bothered to look through this forum, you'd have seen several posts on this topic. But to answer your question, Flash is not supported on any iOS device (iPhone, iPad, iPod). There are 3rd party apps you can try to use from the App store, but they work with limited success......

Load flash movie which with sound problem

Hi, all,
I am doing a flash which with audio, the audio about 3-4 mins. But when i use another flash movie to load that flash mov with sound (using load movie function), cannot hear any voice. Why is it?
The flash movie with sound is use actionscript to attach the sound, when i test the movie, it is work. When it comes to load from another movie, it doesn't work. Anyone can help me to solve it?
Thanks.

What version of Actionscript are you using?

How to load a movie once?

I'm building a site where each "page" is a stopped frame.
Frame 1 is the preloader which when loaded, goes to and Stops
frame 3 which is "home" of my movie.
On the Home frame I have the action script and loader to
stream an flv movie and it loads a movie using the NetStream. The
movie is basically a "welcome and this is what my site is all
about" kind of thing.
How do I get that movie to only play if the user is coming
from Frame 1 (the preloader) and not if they're returning to the
home frame from elsewhere?

The first time the flv is played set a variable to true, such
as:
var moviePlayed:Boolean = true;
and on each visit to frame 3, check the value of the variable
to see if the flv should be played or not.

How to inser flash movie in wordpress?

Hi everyone,
I am trying to insert a flash movie into the footer of my website http://bajabeachfrontlandsale.com but I'm having problems. Does anyone know of a widget or some sort of modification to the code that will allow me to do this.
Thanks for your help.

Hi Fernando,
I use a plugin to insert swf files on my Wordpress Blog called WP-SWFObject.
You can download it from the Wordpress.org website, is quite easy to find, I enjoyed the ease of use of this plugin that much that I wrote an article and put a link on my Wordpress Blog to help people find a good solution to embedding flash files in WP posts.
I tried many in the past, and this one uses shortcodes, You can get info on it here. http://bombnail.com

How to finish flash movie before loading url

I'm pretty new at web design but I've picked up Flash through some tutorials. I'm a bit stuck on how to do the following:
When you click on one of my home page buttons I want my flash animation movie to finish THEN link to url.
I tried adding an eventListener for the tween to 'finish' and then added a link to url to the button but it either linked immediately or the movie finished and didn't link at all.
Here is an example of the code for the button and animation:
rentals_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, rentalsClick);
function rentalsClick(e:MouseEvent):void {
trace("rentalsClick");
var myxTween:Tween=new Tween(Truck_mc,"x",Regular.easeInOut,Truck_mc.x,-378,4,true);
var myyTween:Tween=new Tween(Truck_mc,"y",Regular.easeInOut,Truck_mc.y,0,4,true);
after this x, y, animation finishes I wish for the button to link to my rentals page url. In all of the sections to my site, I want to be able to link to separately so I didn't design the flash to animate to each section. I want it to link to the url.
Any help would be really appreciated.

Your attempt to listen for the end of the tween would have been th correct approach, so maybe your coding of it is off...
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;
rentals_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, rentalsClick);
var myxTween:Tween;
var myyTween:Tween;
function rentalsClick(e:MouseEvent):void {
     trace("rentalsClick");
     myxTween = new Tween(Truck_mc,"x",Regular.easeInOut,Truck_mc.x,-378,4,true);
     myyTween = new Tween(Truck_mc,"y",Regular.easeInOut,Truck_mc.y,0,4,true);
     myyTween.addEventListener(TweenEvent.MOTION_FINISH, moveOn);
function moveOn(TweenEvent):void {
     myyTween.removeEventListener(TweenEvent.MOTION_FINISH, moveOn);
     navigateToURL(...etc);

How to control a loaded flash movie? Please help!!!

Hello everyone
I'm creating a web site with multiples swf files, the navigation is controlled via drop down menu, i have resolved the script for the drop down menu main buttons and i need to control the timeline of the movies loaded with the drop down menu main sub buttons to navigate into specific frames
this is what i got:
stop();
var myrequest:URLRequest=new
URLRequest("HomeSonny.swf");
var myloader:Loader=new Loader
myloader.load(myrequest);
stage.addChild(myloader);
//main buttons
menu.nosotros.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickmouse);
//menu.islas.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickmouse);
//subButtons
menu.historia.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, subMenu);
//event listener main buttons
function clickmouse(evt:MouseEvent):void {
     trace("click")
     myloader.load(new URLRequest("swf/"+evt.target.name+".swf"));
//listener loaded movie
myloader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, subMenu);
//event listener sub buttons control loaded movie
function subMenu(evt:MouseEvent):void {
     trace("clickSub")
     var mycontent:MovieClip=evt.target.content;
     mycontent.gotoAndStop("historia");
the problem is when i click the drop down menu sub button, does not go to the label frame of the loaded swf fil.
What am i doing wrong?
sample in the file....
thanks for watching.........

See code and comments below. I don't guarantee that it will fix all your troubles though - you have big flaws in the logic:
stop();
// declare this var here so that is accessible
var mycontent:MovieClip;
var myrequest:URLRequest=new URLRequest("HomeSonny.swf");
var myloader:Loader = new Loader();
// you need to add listener here - before you start loading
// also you shouldn't mix loading with mouse click
myloader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onFileLoad);
myloader.load(myrequest);
// since your content changes - you shouldn't add it here
// stage.addChild(myloader);
//main buttons
menu.nosotros.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickmouse);
//subButtons
menu.historia.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, subMenu);
function onFileLoad(e:Event):void {
     // remove previous content
     if (mycontent) {
          removeChild(mycontent);
          mycontent = null;
     mycontent = evt.target.content as MovieClip;
     addChild(mycontent);
function clickmouse(evt:MouseEvent):void {
     trace("click")
     myloader.load(new URLRequest("swf/"+evt.target.name+".swf"));
function subMenu(evt:MouseEvent):void {
     trace("clickSub")
     mycontent.gotoAndStop("historia");
