Link ancher flash-html

im building a website in HTML but i made the menu in Flash.
I would like to know what is the code to ancher link the
flash menu to different parts of the page.
The site it has to be mainly made in html.
I wrote this in the html code: <a name="print">
and this in the button flash menu : on (release) {
getURL("#print");
With no luck

Yes, use on getURL me,data. Attach a behavior to the Flash
sprite that looks something like this:
property thisSprite
on beginSprite me
thisSprite = me.spriteNum
end
on getURL me,data
gotoNetPage data
end
Flash expects to be wrapped in a browser window. When that
same Flash swf is inside a Director movie, there is no browser to
communicate with, so the getURL method fails. Director can take the
string that you send from Flash and use it in a gotoNetPage method.
Be sure to include the network xtras with your
projector.

Help with linking to Flash/HTML created by Keynote

Not sure if this has been asked before.
I have created a website using iweb www.compliancetoday.co.uk
I have now created a keynote presentation which I have exported to Flash. This created a swf and a html file. Of course the swf looks lousy on its own but the html linking to it looks great on my desktop (both files are in a folder). My problem is this.
I am trying to create a page in my iweb site that will have a hyperlink which will load the swf for viewing. I have tried doing it in iweb but the hyperlink doesn't work - meaning that it keeps unticking the make hyperlink active button. (I have been publishing to local folder to make sure it works first).
Any help would be appreciated.

Export to SWF has been dropped in the latest version of Keynote. I guess one of the reasons was that the 3D transitions would not translate to flash.
My two work arounds can be seen here.....

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.
Regards,
Hilary

Having trouble linking to an html page in Flash.

Hello,
I have been using Flash for a short while and have just learned how to create a rotating banner. At this point my problem is adding a hotspot or a link from each image highlighted in the Flash movie. Can anyone take a look at my flash file and provide me with an example of actionscript that allows each image in the slideshow to link to a different page within my site. A dummy link is /Shop_DVDs.html or a full url could be www.bikepaparazzi.com. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
I've attached the Flash files.

It appears that I am still doing something wrong. I've attached the flash, but here is the code based on my understanding of how to update it:
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.net.navigateToURL;
dvds.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,navigate1);
var nav1:String="http://bikepaparazzi.com"; navigate1(e:MouseEvent):void {
function
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(nav1),"_self");
proconvention.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,navigate2);
var nav2:String="http://proconvention.com"; navigate2(e:MouseEvent):void {
function
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(nav2),"_self");
advertise.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,navigate3);
var nav3:String="http://bikepaparazzi.com"; navigate3(e:MouseEvent):void {
function
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(nav3),"_self");
tee.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,navigate4);
var nav4:String="http://bikepaparazzi.com"; navigate4(e:MouseEvent):void {
function
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(nav4),"_self");
proconvention.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,navigate5);
var nav5:String="http://bikepaparazzi.com"; navigate5(e:MouseEvent):void {
function
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(nav5),"_self");

Linking a flash button to a html page

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew the best way to link a
flash button to a page in DW?
Thanks

Place this actionscript into the hit area of your flash
button, then export the flash as a .swf and place onto the
dreamweaver page...
on(release){
getURL("YOUR_DESIRED_PAGE.html","_self");
This will open the new html page in the same window. Hope
that helps.
You can get a cheap but awesome tutorial on Flash buttons

Making a Link in Flash Professional 8

Hey,
I'm wondering how to make a link in Flash Professional 8, any tutorials around?

Linking to a web page and linking to another section of the same Flash file involves different code. I'll show you examples of both wrt using a button for the interactive control.
In this case the button is assigned an instance name of linkBtn (it's assign in the properties panel). The code I show is placed on a frame that is the same as the button (different layers for good housekeeping).
Link to web page:
linkButton.onRelease = function(){
     getURL("http://www.yoursite.com/page.html");
Link to section (section starts on a frame having a label... "section1"):
linkButton.onRelease = function(){
     gotoAndStop("section1");
OR
linkButton.onRelease = function(){
     gotoAndPlay("section1");
The difference between the two for the section link would depend on whether section1 is an animated timeline piece that would play when you get there or a self-contained movieclip that has controls of its own.

Broken Links inside FLash

I notived that the links inside my flash header do not work
on this page as well as other pages inside this directory. The
links do work in the root directory. Does someone know how to fix
this problem I am having? Here is the link:
http://www.school-psychologist.com/nick/worshipping/creative.html
The action script URL setting is index.html, about.html, etc.
For some reason when you click the following link, the flash header
sends the user to
http://www.school-psychologist.com/nick/worshipping/index.html
instead of
http://www.school-psychologist.com/nick/index.html
Thanks a bunch!!

impossible to say other then your code is wrong - always
always always copy/paste the code in
question or we have nothing to go by - but flash simply does
not replace urls with other urls - you
must have the wrong code on the wrong button and missed
something simple.

Link INTO Flash Site?

My photographer wife just posted her brand new Flash site.
And it's great.
But, we just noticed that other specialist sites linked to
the relevant page of her old site. Is there a way to create links
into Flash sites without creating separate HTML pages? The idea
would be to go to a specific navigation point.
Thanks,
Gary

You can use a javascript code within the .html file pointing
to your exact section on the flash movie. I just forget what's the
term of that. I'll look at it and get back to you

How do i link something to html dreamweaver page??

hi i am having a problem.
I have produced several .swf files to be used as part of an interactive cd. I have produced the home page in dreamweaver, with a button link for each of the movie clips, but when the clip ends it just stays on this clip, i need a kind of "home page" link at the end of the clip to take the viewer back to the page with all of the links to the other movies on, i am desperate for help here, any advice is most appreciated!

Hi,
At the end of the clip, you need to link to one more html page which links to all other swfs.
To embed a swf file in the html page, you need to use the object tag like given below.
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=10,0,0,0" width="550" height="400" id="one" align="middle">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="false" />
<param name="movie" value="your_home_swf_name.swf" /><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" /> <embed src="your_swf_file.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="550" height="400" name="Untitled-1" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" allowFullScreen="false" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer" />
</object>
You need to add this line of code in a html file and add a link to this html file in the last html file.
Thanks

Create a link to a .html file

I'm creating a web page with a flash introduction, but the
rest of the website
is done in dreamweaver.
At the end of my intro animation two buttons are displayed
to go to two
different parts of the website, I want these buttons to link
to a .html file on
my computer which is part of my site.
Can anyone please tell me how to link the buttons in
my .swf/flash to
the local .html files on my computer?
(I know simple action script e.g getURL() etc...)
Thanks in advance.
http://flashvideotutorials.blogspot.com/

Well, it's really just getURL("page1.html", "_self");
Create your button. Convert it to a movieclip. Click on the
movieclip
on the stage and give it an instance name. On the frame where
the
buttons are loaded in the timeline put something to the
effect of:
button1.onPress = function (){
getURL("page1.html", "_self");
button2.onPress = function (){
getURL("page2.html", "_blank");

Linking from a html webpage to an image in a photoflow component

Hello,
I will apologise first as I am very new to the world of flash but am trying to do something that (to me) seems fairly complicated.
I am using the photoflow component in flash as an image viewer, I would like to link to individual images within the viewer from html webpages.
I have a link in a HTML page. The link goes to a .swf file that shows a gallery of images that are defined in an xml file.
Currently I can define the startposition of the .swf file in the xml file in a simple way (i.e. center). Can I define the start position in the HTML link to go to the desired image?
In other words
link 1 = Startposition Image 1
link 2 = Startposition image 2
link 3 .... etc.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Hannah

Thanks again, Rick.
Either I am doing something wrong or the Shortcut Control is not an option for me. I want to just give up this as I have spent WAY too much time trying it over and over again. I deleted the spaces from the folder names, tried various versions of the relative link, and still cannot access these files from the chm directly in my working folder (not called from the application where it will eventually live). I know this solution worked for me before. I’m just not sure what is happening now. It seems that RH doesn’t recognize the path and file and, when I try to alter the reference, RH reverts to whatever I had originally specified in the “Program to open” field. ☹ The shortcut does work when I use an absolute path (file:///D:/RoboHelpProjects/help/HardwareTroubleshooting/index.php/Hardware_Guide.html<f ile:///D:\RoboHelpProjects\help\HardwareTroubleshooting\index.php\Hardware_Guide.html>) but I cannot do that since the app will not absolutely be stored in the same place for every customer. I have to find a way to use a relative path in which the ./help directory is located one level above the root directory (D:/pcs/help…).
You have been so helpful, but I really don’t want to keep bugging you. Do you know of any links to online tutprials for the JavaScript option you mentioned? I have never worked with that before.
Thanks again…Kim

Properly Linking a Flash Animation to a URL

Hi Folks,
I'm Running CS4, AS3. Thanks in advance for taking a look at this.
I was asked to link a Flash banner ad to a URL. To accomplish this, I created a new layer with one keyframe in frame 1, which spans the whole animation. In this layer I entered the ActionScript in REFERENCE 1. It works fine in several browsers, including IE8, FF3.6, and Chrome, and works for the customer. Then....
Their webmaster emailed back saying that he "did not see any links in the new banner." I'm not sure what this means, and if he actually tested the code.
They sent me an example from a previous developer, which is REFERENCE 2.
I compared it to what I published--which was generated by the CS4 "Publish" option. This is REFERENCE 3.
Did I do something wrong? Everything works in all my tests, and they work for the customer.
It looks like they're missing a lot of information from the header. It is much smaller than the header that CS4 generates. They also have a link under the  comment. Could this affect the performance? To my knowledge, this is obsolete. Perhaps they used an older version of Flash?
tyvm!

You should check with whoever made the comment regarding the links -- it's not clear though it may refer to the difference between these lines in 2 and 3.
2)

<a href="http://www.URL.com/"></a>
3)

So you may just need to add some link after that line to appease them? So asking is your best means to resolution for that.
As far as your mention of a more robust head section goes, there is probably no difference between the two--they both use the AC_FL_RunContent coding to embed the Flash file.   The REF3 head section just contains all of the javascript code that is in the file they are linking in the following line...
<script src="AC_RunActiveContent.js" language="javascript"></script>

Beginner - how to link swf to html

Hi,
I need help for :
1) linking swf to html by a click of a button (example to skip the flash intro)
and
2) after swf finish playing I need it to go straight to a html page
I tried several action code but it doesn't work... Can anyone help?

enter_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);
function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.adobe.com"),"_self");
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("hhttp://www.adobe.com","_self"));
It's working fine just try the above code

Accessing the links in a HTML component

hello.I'm using a HTML component in my application. I would like to drag and drop some links from the HTML component into a datagrid for instance. When I hold the mouse clic and move the cursor, theres a grey faded frame with the link inside, so there must be some way to access this information. Any idea how i could do that ? Thank you for any assistance.

Thanks Stephen,
In this case we want to use external links. For example we write a short headline and intro and then link to another page where you can read the rest.
I have a lot of customers who wants to edit this kind of links by themselves so I hope you will look into this as quickly as possible :-)
