Link in flash mvoie
Hi,
I'm pretty crap at flash and i have what is probably a simple
question. I want to create a link for one layer of a flash
animation, for multiple frames. How do i do thi?
Thanks a lot.
Olly
I agree you need more details....
"I want to create a link for one layer of a flash animation,
for multiple frames.."
do you want a number of buttons to appear in your animation -
with each button linking to a different frame further along your
timeline...?

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. -
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.

Linking between Flash, pdf and html
How to link from Flash to certain page in pdf document
displaying in web browser?
this is not working:
on (release) {
getURL("interfaces.pdf#example", "_self");
neither: #nameddest=example, #page=2
This works though from html, but only first time. If you surf
beck and then go to the same link it doesnt navigate to that page!
Any idea very appreciated!
ThanxHi 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.

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,
GaryYou 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
Spain Travel - one
of my inspirations in using flash -
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 luckYes, 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. -
Adding Hypertext Link in Flash CS5?
How do I add a Hypertext Link in Flash Pro CS5? Do I need to use Action script 3 and asign to a button? My website has a text file to add and edit text content. Is there any way to add a Hypertext Link into this text file?
ThanksI am only well versed in ActionScript 3 and that is not even being well-versed. I used to know some things about AS2 but that
has faded.
To answer your question yes you need ActionScript and you need to assign an event listener to a button and assign an event handler to that listener which will be a function. Try to read up on the topic "navigateToURL" in the help documentation with Flash CS5 Pro. There should be an example that you can follow. It is not as easy as it sounds at first but once you get the gist of the syntax you will know how to do it for any situation. -
Hi,
I am having problems with links in Flash using actionscript 2
I have some buttons which link to a specific frame using this
code:
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("2");
And some buttons linking to next and previous frames using
this code:
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("nextFrame");
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("prevFrame");
The links just seem to be linking to anywhere on the timeline
and I just can't figure out why. Has anyone come across this
before, would appreciate any help.
Thanks, PaulHi, thanks for the response.
Basically, I have a gallery, with pictures on consecutive
frames on the time-line. I made a next button and previous button
and I used the code exactly as is written above for each respective
button. The next frame command seems to work Ok but as soon as you
hit previous button it goes haywire, seemingly linking to any frame
on the time-line.
Have I used the wrong code.
kind regards,
Paul -

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 <!--url's used in the movie--> comment. Could this affect the performance? To my knowledge, this is obsolete. Perhaps they used an older version of Flash?
tyvm!

</html>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)
<!--url's used in the movie-->
<a href="http://www.URL.com/"></a>
3)
<!--url's used in the movie-->
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...

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?
ThanksPlace 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
here...
http://www.cartoonsmart.com/smooth_buttons.html
No, I don't know the guy and I don't get a commission. The
tutorials really helped me, that's all. -
Is there anyway to add links to flash files in Dreamweaver.
For example - I created a flash file that tranistions through a few
different images. I placed it on my home page in Dreamweaver and I
want people to be able to click the flash animation and go to
another page within my site. Is there anyway to do this within
Dreamweaver or do I have to place a url link in my Flash
file?Yeah. I see now.

Link Custom Flash Buttons in Dreamweaver?
Hello,
I created an animated button in flash and tried to link it up
in Dreamweaver with no success. I don’t understand why I can
use generic animated buttons that DW offers and have a link for
them but, when I create my own DW doesn’t offer a link. All
I’m trying to do is link to a different page on my site. I
tried to use “getURL” in the action script in flash and
got that to work but, I really didn’t want to open a new
browser. Can anyone help?
60vetteIf 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...
In addition, you cannot add a link to a Flash element using
HTML. That link
must be added in the Flash itself.

Url link in flash page flip book
I am very inexperienced at what I am trying to accomplish.
I have created a flip book in flash. On a page in the book I made a button that is a link to an external url. When I place the the swift file of that page on my webstie, the link works. I have made a link from my homepage to the flipbook. But when I open the flip book the url link does not work.
Does anyone out there know what's wrong?
thanksIf the flip page the swf is in has interactive code asigned to it, such as whatever you use to flip the page, it could be blocking access to any clickable objects in the swf file.
