Newbie here, with button action script issue

I have just started to scrach the surface with actionscript
and I have attempted to assign it to buttons. Much to my supprise,
it worked, sort of... All my buttons require a double click the
first time you click on them. I was able to put
this together, by
using the following action script for all my buttons:
on (release) {
ybutton.onRelease = function() {
gotoAndStop(28);
So I have 2 questions. What actionscript will give me the
single click that I am looking for? Also, is there any shortcut to
making a broad change? In other words, will have to switch out the
code for every button on 37 frames?
Thank you

1: // You needed two clicks because you have 2 onRelease.
on (release) {
gotoAndStop(28);
2: Yes, it'll go fast I would copy the above and paste where
needed then just change the frame #.

Movie Clip Button - Action Script issues

This is a two part question:
1. I have my movie clip button, "mcAboutus" then inside my
movie clip I have 5 layers: actions, labels, text, animated
rollover("mcAboutusover"), animated rolloff("mcAboutusoff"). On the
labels layer I have _up, _over, _off. On the _up is the text layer,
on the _over is a movie clip of the animated
rollover("mcAboutusover") which is 90 frames, and I want to loop as
long as the mouse is over the text. And the _off has the
"mcAboutusoff" movie clip.
So I was able to have the rollover work, but when I roll off
the rollover animation continues on until the end of the animation.
I understand it has to do with the fact that it's a movie clip, but
how do I point it to go into the movie clip and read the animation
and that on the last frame of the animation I have a
"gotoAndPlay(1);" to have the animation continue looping as long as
it's in a rollover state?
here is the code I have for the _root:
this.mcAboutus.onRollOver = function() {
mcAboutus.gotoAndPlay(_over);
this.mcAboutus.onRollOut = function() {
mcAboutus.gotoAndPlay(_off);
The other problem I am having is that once the I have rolled
over the animation once, the button dies and won't let me rollover
it again?
Aside from the "stop();" action in the mcAboutus movie clip
symbol, I don't have any other actions, should I put items in the
different movie clips I have set up?
ALSO.... The reason that I have the main movie clip button,
and two movie clips residing in the mcBtn is I wanted light rays to
be glowing from the text, and I was having a hard time getting what
I wanted from Flash, so I created in After Effects and exported two
.SWF files. So those .SWF files are the _over and _off states in
the mcBtn. I am having a very hard time controlling those Movie
Clips within the main MC Button. Please, any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Ok, so I have my main timeline, in it has my
mcAboutus>> then inside that I have three labels. _up which
has the static text then on frame 5 I have the _over which has the
keyframe for the mcAboutusover, this animation is 90 frames, then I
have on frame 10, the _off for the RollOut state, and I have a 10
frame animation on that one. I still can't get it to continue on
after the initial rollover, the button still dies down.
I am going to redo everything in a presentation timeline,
based on Total Training and see if that helps my problem out any,
and will get back to you tomorrow with more info. Thanks

Help with button/action script

As part of a class I have to create an aquarium where I have
pictures of fish on the side and I want to be able to click on the
fish and have it add the fish to the aquarium. I want to be able to
have the viewer select the number and types of fish they want in
the aquarium. I'm using Flash 8 if that matters. Please, any help
would be wonderful.

Thank you for your help so far.
I am just a beginner and that coding went way over my head. I
have created a movie clip for each fish and I have added the
buttons to the aquarium. I have created the linkage for the movie
clips in my library. I am having problems attaching the clip to the
button. In all of the examples I have seen I have to include the
instance name. How do I give a clip that is not on the stage an
instance name?
Can you please help?
Thank you

Scroll bar actions script issue

I am having a problem with the action script for a scroll bar
the code is complex and I did not write it but have managed to make
other adjustments to get it to work...think we got the wrong raw
file to work from because the scroll bar works in the file on the
seller's server. Can't find the programmer now. If someone could
please tell me what I am missing. The scroll bar works if you use
the solid scroller in the middle but does not move the information
and the arrows do not work at all. You can check this out at
http://74.53.228.34/~jacob753/vocab/
Just click on crossword and then load a topic and you will
see that the scroll bar does not work at all. The floating window
is another issue and I will put this in another message after this
is fixed.
The code is below:
initClueListScroll = function(y){
// y : hauteur de la cluelist (height of the cluelist)
_global.clueListHeight = y
_global.clueListScroll = true
var c = clScrollClip
c._x = Math.floor(cluelistClip._x+cluelistClip._width)
c.scrollBG._height = gridSize*cellSize-40
c.scrdownClip._y = c.scrollBG._y+c.scrollBG._height
c.scroller._height =
c.scrollBG._height*(gridSize*cellSize/y)
// ---- on définit les actions (action definitions)
c.scrdownClip.onRollOver = c.scrupClip.onRollOver =
function(){
this.gotoAndPlay(2)
c.scrdownClip.onRollOut = c.scrupClip.onRollOut =
function(){
this.gotoAndStop(1)
c.scrdownClip.onReleaseOutside = c.scrdownClip.onRelease =
function(){

var c = getMain().clScrollClip
c.scrollBG.onRelease()
c.scrupClip.onReleaseOutside = c.scrdownClip.onRelease =

var c = getMain().clScrollClip
var yMin = c.scrollBG._y
var yMax =
c.scrollBG._y+Math.floor(c.scrollBG._height-c.scroller._height)
this.startDrag(false,0,yMin,0,yMax)
getMain().onMouseMove = function(){
var c = getMain().clScrollClip
var yDes = c.scroller._y-20
var yMax = Math.floor(c.scrollBG._height-c.scroller._height)
var yFin = 20+Math.min(yDes,yMax)
c.scroller.setGoTo(c.scroller._x,yFin,100,c.scroller._yscale,100,0,4)
var yDiff =
(yFin-c.scrollBG._y)*(gridSize*cellSize/c.scrollBG._height)
if(yFin==yMax+20){
var ymn = 0
var ymx = clueListHeight-(gridSize*cellSize)
yDiff = (ymx - ymn)*(yFin/(yMax+20))
// pX, pY, pW, pH, pA, pR, pSpeed
var cl = getMain().cluelistClip.contClip
cl.setGoTo(cl._x,-yDiff+gridPosition.y,100,100,100,0,4)

delete getMain().onMouseMove
c.scrollBG.onRelease = function(){
var c = getMain().clScrollClip
var yDes = c._ymouse-20<c.scroller._height ? 0 :
c._ymouse-20
var yMax = Math.floor(c.scrollBG._height-c.scroller._height)
var yFin = 20+Math.min(yDes,yMax)
c.scroller.setGoTo(c.scroller._x,yFin,100,c.scroller._yscale,100,0,4)
var yDiff =
(yFin-c.scrollBG._y)*(gridSize*cellSize/c.scrollBG._height)
if(yFin==yMax+20){
var ymn = 0
var ymx = clueListHeight-(gridSize*cellSize)
yDiff = (ymx - ymn)*(yFin/(yMax+20))
// pX, pY, pW, pH, pA, pR, pSpeed

cl.setGoTo(cl._x,-yDiff+gridPosition.y,100,100,100,0,4)
c.scrollBG.onReleaseOutside = c.scrollBG.onRelease

Try it in a simple test case. I don't think that is default behavior.

XML Gallery won't work remotely - Action Script issues

I created an XML scrolling thumbnail gallery using a
tutorial
found here
I then had to alter the action script to get my thumbnails to
display properly -- they were spaced out or overlapping each other
and not in the sequence specified in the XML file. The new code
works great locally, but the thumbnails and larger image refuse to
load remotely in every browser i've tried. Any thoughts on how to
alter the action script to load the gallery?!?! I'm not much
experienced in Flash so any help would be most appreciated.
You can find the page with my unloadable gallery
here
You can see my action script in my
Flash
CS3 file
Thanks!
Joe.

Hi --
I clicked on the link for your gallery and the images load??
Both when I
click on the image or when I click the "next" and "previous"
buttons --
although the "hit" area for the buttons is below the actual
text so you
should adjust that on those buttons. I would also recommend
not making the
text selectable so the cursor won't change to the "I bar"

Could someone help me with my action script?

I followed a tutorial on how to make an interactive photo gallery but for some reason the file isn't working. I am new to flash and no very little about action script.
Would someone be willing to take a look at my file and advise me?
Thanks

Did your tutorial have you download XML from a server to feed the images to the gallery? Many people forget to check for errors loading the XML file or forget to "do something" once the XML is loaded. Common things not to look for are IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR or SecurotyErrorEvents warning you the XML you're trying to load is on a different domain (a webserver online) and it doesn't have permission (a crossdomain.xml).
In those situations it can appear like it's doing nothing.
Did you just take the code of the tutorial at the end and try to play it as you went through the tutorial? If you just copy and pasted it all you'lre going to have a hard time isolating the issue. In that case you can always re-do the tutorial until you start to see issues. Then you know where they are.

Help needed with Button action performed

Hi,
I am new to AWT prgramming .
I have created a menu called " Menu System Test window " and it contains toplevel menu items of "File" and "Help" and File Menu contains subitems "Product Evaluation" and "Exit".
When i click File->Product Evaluation it displays a new Frame named "ProductEvaluationMeasurementTool" with some check boxes ,radiobuttons, buttons and text fields. So when i select some checkboxes in that new frame and click the button labeled "Metricslevel" it displays some resultin textField1 , similarly when i click Button labeled "Measurementlevel" it displays some result in textField2.
My question is i have another button in Frame Called "Reset". When i click the Reset button all the check boxes which have been checked previously should be unchecked and moreover the result in both the textfield should be cleared.
I am sending my code. Kindly help me.
Thanks in advance.

Troubles with rule action scripting, again

I'm baaack, I have another question with a rule action script that I can not figure out how to get to run. In this instance I want the script to sort messages from various members of a group into their respective mailboxes. The mail rule selects the group and sends it to the following Script.
using terms from application "Mail"
on perform mail action with messages theMessages for rule theRule
tell application "Mail"
repeat with eachMessage in theMessages
set theSender to sender of eachMessage
if theSender contains "+the full address of the sender+" then
set mailbox of eachMessage to mailbox "+the desired mailbox+ "
end if
end repeat
end tell
end perform mail action with messages
end using terms from
What am I missing this time? This is the most recent version of several attempts.I may as well add, when I expand this to include the numerous members of the group, do I end each of the "if" statements with a "end if" or will the script evaluate several "if" statements in one toss. tT

The most likely place it could fail is in the comparision:
if theSender contains "the full address of the sender" then
You should add some debugging to see whether this evaluates to true or false. If it's true and the message doesn't move that's a whole different problem from it evaluating false.
As for the 'if' question, you can do it either way. Depending on the situation, one path may be more or less efficient than the other, so it may take some experimentation:
In general, I try to group the statements into the action, not the clause - for example, if there are three clauses that cause a specific action then I'd have one if statement with three clauses rather than three separate if statements that all lead to the same task.

Help with adding action script to an order form

Hi - Firs time I'm on this board. Searched and didn't see
anything that fit. Adobe/Macromedia Support told me my form needs
an action script insert for me to gain access to a previous page.
I'm revamping an online order form. It's about 2 1/2 pages in
length. I find that I can't go back to the first page -- I'm locked
in the second one. On split screen the HTML coding shows there is
more than one page. Also, when I look at it in a browser the whole
page is there.
Does anyone know how and where I can put in action script.
I'm not an HTML maven so this isn't my thing. Thanks for whatever
advice you can give.
Best - ETide

Oh boy, another P35D3 guy here with a rebooting BIOS issue :(

Bought the following components:
1. MSI P35D3 Board
2. Intel Core 2 Duo 3.0ghz CPU (8400 series I believe)
2. Kingston ValueRAM 2 sticks of 1gb DDR3 Ram
3. NVIDIA 9600GT Video Card.
4. Nspire 750w PS
Originally it was an ATI HD3870 Card, but when I but this thing together it was actually throwing beeping codes, so I exchanged the Video for an Nvidia 9600GT (which seems to have been a bit of a downgrade).
I started experiencing the dreaded reboot problem. Thinking the board was bad, I took the whole PC back to the store, but they could not reproduce the error. Took it back home and it started working fine except for the random time that it does the continual reboot. Started to research on the net like crazy. Seems a ton of guys are having the same issues. From everything I've read I've been able to do the following:
1. Upgrade the BIOS to the latest. I'm actually confused here because I used the Liveupdate feature and it updated my BIOS to v2.5, yet the latest BIOS on the download page is v1.6???
2. Setup the BIOS Settings to PCI=4X, MPS=1.4. Disabled all non necessary devices. Disabled spread spectrum
I still have my RAM at "Enabled by SPD". I don't know what to manually put for settings for my type of RAM. Everytime I try something, it goes into the continuous reboot until I press the reset CMOS button, and I'm using the spec sheet for my RAM.
I'm posting this from another computer, but when I get to mine, I will post the info that I'm currently using.
Has anyone been able to completely eliminate this problem???

Ok, here's the RAM type that I currently have:
KVR1333D3N9K2/2G
2GB (1GB 128M x 64-Bit x 2 pcs.) PC3-10600 CL9 240-Pin DIMM Kit
DESCRIPTION:
ValueRAM's KVR1333D3N9K2/2G is a kit of two 128M x 64-bit 1GB (1024MB) DDR3-1333 CL9 SDRAM (Synchro- nous DRAM) memory modules, based on sixteen 64M x 8-bit DDR3-1333 FBGA components per module. The SPDs are programmed to JEDEC standard latency 1333Mhz timing of 9-9-9 at 1.5V. Each 240-pin DIMM uses gold contact fingers and requires +1.5V. The electrical and mechanical specifications are as follows:
JEDEC standard 1.5V ± 0.075V Power Supply VDDQ = 1.5V ± 0.075V
667MHz fCK for 1333Mb/sec/pin 8 independent internal bank Programmable CAS Latency: 5,6,7,8,9,10 Posted CAS
Programmable Additive Latency: 0, CL - 2, or CL - 1 clock Programmable CAS Write Latency(CWL) = 9(DDR3-1333) 8-bit pre-fetch
Burst Length: 8 (Interleave without any limit, sequential with starting address “000” only), 4 with tCCD = 4 which does not allow seamless read or write [either on the fly using A12 or MRS] Bi-directional Differential Data Strobe
Internal(self) calibration : Internal self calibration through ZQ pin (RZQ : 240 ohm ± 1%) On Die Termination using ODT pin
Average Refresh Period 7.8us at lower then TCASE 85°C, 3.9us at 85°C < TCASE . 95°C Asynchronous Reset
1066Mbps CL7 doesn’t have backward compatibility with 800Mbps CL5
Anyone have any ideas what manual memory settings I should try?

Help with button actions

Hi all,
The last Flash version that I am use to, is 5.5 which was extremely easy to use. I have used CS3 a little, but now I have CS4. You use to be able to set the action right in the button, then just copy the button. Now it's totaly different. I have watched some tutorials in Adobe TV, but find that my property windows do not look like theirs, which is very confusing.
Can any one point me to some URLs that show me basic buttons tutorials, such as: on release goto and play scene 1 frame 10, etc.
Thank yoou
HDsuperglide

you can use as1 if you want. cs3, cs4 and cs5 are all backwards compatible with the coding style you've used in the past.
nevertheless, i'm not an adobe employee/company rep.

Newb here witha few questions.

Not a newb to macs but to my powerbook. I had a Powermac G3 all in one beige with 384 MEGS of ram, 9.2 OS and a factory speed of 233 MGHZ clocked to 280 and 4 GIG HD and CD drive. It since died a few years ago when the power unit/supply...i am guessing, crapped out. I now just purchased a Lombard 400 MGHZ powerbook G3 DVD/CD, with 64 MEGS of ram and a 6 gig HD. There is some things i need to get for it...ram, batteries and a bigger hardrive but i am happy with it. I am running 10.2 on it right now and REALLY need more memory. I am about to install 9.2 on it as well. My question is the PC slot on the left side, what can go there? I know the 333MGHZ Lombards use a DVD decoder there but mine does not since its built in. What sorta things can go there? Also i have a 10.3 CD here...should i install it as wellor will it make it run slower since i only have the 64 MEGS right now.

Newbie here with a host of problems

Just got my I ipod touch and besides having to re-register every time I log on, I am also having problems with my ipod being seen as a device in itunes. Somehow I managed to download one song from itunes and play it on my ipod. When I went back on itunes to purchase another song, not only did it not recognize the ipod again, but I could not sync the new song and then the first song that I did sync was no longer on my ipod. What happened to the song that I downloaded? I am so disgusted. I can't get anything accomplished. Please help!

My advice would be to make sure you have the latest software. When you connect your IPT (iPod Touch) to your computer, iTunes should show your IPT. The latest software is 1.1.3. If you have 1.1.1, update to 1.1.2. and then to 1.1.3. You can find out which version you have in one of two ways: 1) On your IPT (not hooked to the computer) at the home screen, select Settings->General->About. You should have Version 1.1.3 (4A93); 2) in iTunes, Click on the IPT and you'll see the Summary tab. It will let you know if you have an update available. Now if you don't have the updated software,click Check For Update. If the update doesn't help, click the Restore button on iTunes. It'll reset your iPod and will sync everything back on.
Don't feel like an idiot: it's new so you have to learn it. We're here to help!

Newbie here with automatic update problem.

Hi everyone,
I just purchased a palm centro for sprint and so far I really like it. The problem is every morning when I get up there is this message...
Sorry, your secheduled automatic updte did not complete successfully because a connection could not be establised--32485
Can anyone help me with this? I would appreciate any advice. Thanks.
Leila
Post relates to: Centro (Sprint)

Hello Leila and welcome to the Palm forums.
This is likely an error message from the My Centro application of the Palm Software (store) application. The problem is that one or both of these applications is waking up while you're asleep and trying to check for content updates (not really needed in my opinion) and the Internet connection on your phone is currently closed.
I don't use either of these applications on my Treo 755p (My Centro is called My Treo). If you launch these apps on your Centro, and then press the Menu button on your keyboard you should be be able to access the menu item that controls software updates and turn off the updates.
Other applications on your Centro may also be looking to check for updates. I would also check Pocket Tunes (pTunes) to see if it is looking for updates also.
Hope that helps,
Alan G
