Rollover button problem

I have three images that I have made into button symbols and
have assigned one image to the Up, one to the Over and one to the
Down. Everything works fine when I have only the Up and the Over
stacked on top of eachother using the "enable simple buttons"
command but when I stack the Down image on top of the other two the
Over stops working.
THanks,
Damilstir

Are you saying you made 3 different buttons for the 3 states?
because the three images should be 3 frames inside the button for
the different states.

A problem with rollover button

i have a problem with rollover button in the menus when i upload my site to the hosting server. When i preview in browser with Dreamweaver before upload , there are no problems.
Thank you!

You have not uploaded the images on the server which is why rollover is not working. When we put the url - http://modano.1gb.bg/button4a.gif in browser it takes the user to the home page of the hosting company. I think you need to check to make sure that the images are uploaded properly.

Animated gif on multiple rollover buttons ?

I want to use animated gifs as MouseOver in rollover buttons.
Somehow when I put this together the animation only works for the
first time I do the MouseOver. - the anim gifs are not looping I
want them to restart every time I have a MouseOut and MouseOver.
I get this to work if i dont put in preload images as default
but then I will have problems with delays instead. Do anyone know
how to solwe this problem in an easy simple to explane kind of way

Interactive PDF: Rollover button state no longer working properly ???

Okay, what's going on with the Interactive PDFs lately?
Now all my rollover buttons no longer work properly. If I have a button that's simply a black arrow, and in the rollover state it's red.
No matter if I'm checking it out in the latest Acrobat Reader or Pro X, the rollover only works for a brief second..then reverts back to black - the original state.
This, combined with my latest problem with the show/hide button state, is really becoming a frustrating hassle:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/3933451#3933451
Any help would be appreciated.
I'm running 7.5.1.
Is this an Acrobat issue? The button function here seems to work in the InDesign preview mode.

Hhmmm...I'm actually having this problem even with Adobe Acrobat 9 Professional. Does this make sense?
Again, I'm creating the document in InDesign CS5 and then building the PDF with Adobe Acrobat 9 Professional, and the rollover effects don't work in Adobe Acrobat 9, Adobe Reader 9, and Adobe Reader 10.
I'm a bit new to this process of software not providing its basic touted functionality. Is this the kind of thing where support for this functionality will vary from product to product? I had the same issue with PDF Portfolio -- where all its functioanlity was not supported in Adobe Reader X. If so, perhaps I should simply stick with the classic features of PDFs. Or can I trust, reliability, that going forward, this rollover effect will be supported in all Adobe Reader versions? This is quite an important issue for me as I provide all the documentation for my employer, including customer facing documentation -- and I simply don't know. Any recommendations?

PSD Rollover Button with image in front stops button from changing state

I have a wide PSD button that changes state when rolled over. I would like to place a PNG image with transparency in some areas over the top of it so that the rollover button shows through the transparent areas of the PNG.
How can you get it to do the rollover effect when the user mouses over the bit of the button that the image is in front of? Is ther a way of making the PNG 'invisible' to the mouse?
I know I could redesign the button so that it includes the image but I'm trying to keep file sizes and load times to a minimum, I use this button a lot on my website with a different on each, and having that number of individual buttons would result in a bloated, slow-loading website.

Hi Abhishek
Thanks for your reply. I was able to achieve the effect I wanted by having the PNG and the PSD Button with the same link and then grouping them. This means I can mouse over the PNG and still get the PSD rollover effect, which is perfect.
However I also have another similar problem. I have some different PSD Rollover Buttons which have some text in front of them (basically it's the button label). On some of these buttons when you roll over the text it prevents the rollover state of the button, and on other buttons the rollover effect occurs as it should, and there doesn't appear to be any consistency about which does what. Grouping or ungrouping doesn't appear to make a difference. Can you help?

Add goTo Action to a Rollover Button

I am trying to add the following action to a rollover button: on (release) {
gotoAndPlay(", );
I have done it in the past and didn't have a problem, but since I don't use Flash often I can't figure out what I am now doing wrong.
The buttons are in the button layer.
For some reason the file wouldn't attach, but can be found at this address:
http://ccbwebdesigns.com/Nkor/NorthKorea_FLASH_V05.fla
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

The argument(s) for gotoAndPlay() is/are:
1. A frame number or frame label: gotoAndPlay(4), or gotoAndPlay("section 2")
2. The path to a movieClip and a frame number or frame label: newClipName.gotoAndPlay(4), or, newClipName.gotoAndPlay("section 2")
3. The name of a different movie section and a frame number or frame label: gotoAndPlay("section name",4) or gotoAndPlay("section name","section 2")
Do any of these fit your needs?

A Rollover Button

I have made a bitmap image into a rollover button - reason - so that when the mouse rolls over the hit area of the button/image/thumbnail - it becomes larger on the stage and when the mouse moves outside the paramaters of the larger picture it goes back down to the original button/image/thumbnail size.
That works fine.
However . . . there is always a however. When I implemented the same functions to the other thumbnails on the stage - if I rollover the second thumbnail - the other thumbnails show up (through) on top of that enlarged image.
I thought it was an 'order of layer problem' but that didn't fix it no matter how much I switched the layers around.
I guess, like always, I'm missing one simple step.
Can you help?

Yes, I am using AS3 and thanks - I'll try that!

In looking back I can't see what would have led me to think you were using AS2 instead of AS3... maybe it was just the term 'rollover'. If you are using AS3 then you can look into either of the two things you found, or look into setChildIndex()... setChildIndex may be the easier to work with because you can set it to the highest child depth ((numChildren-1) and not have to chase specific instances. If you look up setChildIndex in the help docs you'll see it discusses exactly what you are trying to do (I think).

Active Content W/ Rollover Buttons Help

I'm pretty new to web design, and I've been using dreamweaver
to create webpages. My problem is I have some rollover buttons I
made in fireworks and imported to dreamweaver as fireworks html,
and in IE7 I get the "activate active content" error. I installed
the dreamweaver 8.2 update, thinking that would fix it, but
although I can see that the extension to automatically change the
code so it'll work in IE in my preferences, the option to do so
never comes up. I read somewhere that it doesn't support image
tags, which I think mine are. So my question is: is there an easy
fix for this other than the update, or at least a fix for a
beginner who doesn't know javascript? I've googled to my heart's
content, and everything I've come across has been over my head.
Please someone help me with this. I can also post the code if
that'll help, just let me know. Thanks in advance!
Hiram

I'm not quite sure what the actual issue is here but several
things seem to
be confused.
My problem is I have some rollover buttons I made in
fireworks and
> imported to dreamweaver as fireworks html, and in IE7 I
get the "activate
> active content" error.
Buttons made in Fireworks and activated with Javascript are
not related to
the "activate active content" issue.
Do you have some Flash or other active content on your page
which is
triggering the "click to activate" which you're confusing
with your
Fireworks buttons?
I installed the dreamweaver 8.2 update, thinking that

I don't quite follow this part.
So my question is: is there an easy fix for this other than
the update, or
> at least a fix for a beginner who doesn't know
javascript?
Web content driven by Javascript is not active content so I'm
not sure what
the issue is or what needs fixing.
Can you post a link to your page?

MUSE: psd rollover buttons shake / wobble in Internet Explorer 7

Hi Guys
I'm developing a service directory website. It was working fine and then for some reason I've noticed the rollover buttons (psd files created in photoshop) are suddenly not working when viewed with Internet Explorer 6 or 7. Yes I know these are achaeic web browsers and not up to web standard and it's shocking that they're still used in a corporate setting; but for various other reason most NHS computers are stagnated in having to use these browsers by default. Much of our site traffic is from NHS computers and so rather than just encouraging people to have a second modern broswer, we'd really like to make the site work with these older browsers.
This is the current site:
www.clinicalservicemap.co.uk
The buttons work fine on all modern browsers and so you'll only see the problem in Internet Explorer 6 or 7. In these browsers some (not all) of the rollover buttons on the 'map' on the right are gently shaking and no longer clickable. This problem didn't exist a few weeks ago; seemed to happen possibly after I did a recent MUSE up-date but otherwise I cannot figure out at all why it suddenly occured?? Any tips???? I've even tried rebuilding a whole new site but again, rollover buttons created as psd files in photoshop seem to do this odd behaviour sometimes, and other times when I create a button it doesnt do it????
HELP?!

Rollover buttons with unexpected results

Hello Folks,
I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction with a
problem I'm having with rollover buttons.
I've used Fireworks to create five rollover buttons with
round corners onto a single transparent canvas. I've exported the
images as gif and then pasted the relevant code into Dreamweaver.
I'm getting two results that are puzzling me.
1. The images are not being displayed with transparent
backgrounds, as you can see at this url:
http://www.magicalwonders.com/rollover/index2.html
The corners are showing which is not what I want. I notice that
there are four types of gif than can be exported when making
rollovers. So far, I've tried using Gif adaptive 256 and Gif
Websnap 256 with no success.
2. The second puzzle is that including the javascript code
seems to have increased the top margin for the background of the
page. If you compare the page before any code is added, you can see
the difference:
http://www.magicalwonders.com/rollover/index.html
Hope someone can advise
Many thanks,
Myles

Myles,
Try exporting your menu images as png 8 files with index
transparency.

Rollover button issue...

This problem is giving me a right headache but I'm almost there.
Trying to create a rollover button and thought I had the coding set up correctly but although the normal image appears correctly in iweb after I paste in an html snippet, when I visit the page the button is on, it displays as blue text link "link title" and when I rollover it, it disappears. Does anyone know how to rectify this?
Having not yet purchased the domain for this site and therefore meaning I have not just setup my domain forwarding, I wondered if this has anything to do with this not working correctly?

It is most likely an inherited CSS rule. The suspect one is
in second time your page attempts to pull in "Tworx_styles.css". It
appears to be pulling in an error page that contains the following:
A:link { color: red }
I would suggest removing it altogether because the page
already properly pulls it in from the head section <link
href="../Tworx_styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />.
Try removing the following line...
<link href="Tworx_styles.css" rel="stylesheet"
type="text/css" />
It appears just above:
<p class="news_body">

Rollover buttons that play a movie clip.

Hello,
   I am new to Flash and I am trying to accomplish a simulation such as this example, http://www.its-about-time.com/investinesart/coalplantvirtualtour.swf. I have all of my movie clips done, but how do I tell a rollover button to play a specific movie clip? I also want to have all the movie clips to play simultaneously via a rollover button as shown in the example. I've attached a captured image of my timeline, if that helps. I've tried everything so far, but nothing is working! What is the simplest way of doing this?
I have this inside one of the movie clips (mc_2) in a seperate layer under - (actions)
RO_btn.onRollover = function(){
mc_2.play();
On the main timeline I have an actions layer with this:
stop();
Thinking that this may stop all of my movie clips but it doesn't.
Should I make an actions layer in each movie clip with this syntax huh? stop();?
I'm frustrated!!
Thanks, if you can help!

Hi,
I have made something that you are looking for.
It will be of help to you.
basically you will have to create a few movie clips namely:
2 buttons: (name them a_btn, b_btn, c_btn, d_btn, e_btn)
3 movie clips (I am taking example image1_mc, image2_mc, image3_mc)
in each of these movieclips.place 2 frames and on second frame put your movieclip(one in one).on both the frames put stop()
now click on a_btn and write this script
on (rollOver) {
_root.image1_mc.gotoAndPlay(2);
_root.image2_mc.gotoAndPlay(2);
_root.image3_mc.gotoAndPlay(2);
on (rollOut) {
    _root.image1_mc.gotoAndPlay(1);
    _root.image2_mc.gotoAndPlay(1);
    _root.image3_mc.gotoAndPlay(1);
with this all 3 animations will work simultaneously. if you need to run any one of the movieclips at a time the you can address that mc in particular
.Say if you want only 1 mc to move at a time then put this on btn 2
on (rollOver) {
_root.image1_mc.gotoAndPlay(2);
on (rollOut) {
    _root.image1_mc.gotoAndPlay(1);
.Dont forget to give proper instance names to movieclips.(they are in properties panel.)
Cheers!

Caller screen Buttons problem Z10STL100-1

I have Z10STL100-1 after official update Z10STL100-1/10.3.1.1565 having caller screen Buttons problem these are little above not like it's on 10.2 very below position. I security wipe and restart many times still same position of buttons? See pic attached

Hello,
Did you check if there are no objects on that index slide that have a fading transition? You should set the transition for every object to 'No transition'. The transition can be found in the Properties dialog, tab Options.

How to make edges of rollover button straight

I was using rollover pjc in my forms....
I am setting these properties of the buttons...
--> setting the 'label' property to [ROLLOVER]add
--> setting 'implementation class' property to
'oracle.forms.demos.enhancedItems.RolloverButton'
My rollover buttons are dislayed with rounded edges....
I want to make the edges of my rollover buttons
straight(like sqaure edges). please let me know how do i do that.
Thanks in advance

Judging by the source code of RolloverButton.java, it looks like that demo will always use rounded buttons.
If you want normal shaped buttons, then you should modify RolloverButton.java or create your own Java class based on it and change it. The change should be to not use setLeftmost(true) and setRightmost(true). By setting them to true you are telling the button to treat the button as if it's the leftmost or rightmost button, which will round that end (or both).
