SWF loaded into MainNav SWF - Rollovers & Links Don't Work

Hi all,
This is probably a very basic question!
I have a Fla file with Text and Movie clips in it. The Text
is animated when rollover occurs and thumbnail images click and
link to the full size versions.
It works when published (Say "LatestText.SWF").
But when I call it from my Main Nave FLA/SWF, upon loading
the Text.SWF, the rollover anim doesn't happen and the picture
links don't work when clicked.
I have the latest flash player installed and the actual
weblink cursor appears as if the SWF acknowledges everything is
working, but nothing dynamic actually works.
Any Ideas? THANKS ALL! Much appreciated!

I'll try to flesh it out, although I don't think there's need
for any code behaviours as they all work fine - until the info.SWF
is loaded into the main.SWF.
So i'll try my best to flesh this out:-
I have a Navigation FLA which publishes to SWF (at the moment
Allow access to Local Files - tried network).
This Nav.FLA is the main bulk of the website, it has all the
links and window panes.
I have a downloaded window pane style component which is an
autoscroller (in case this could be the problem).
I can load my info.SWF's straight into the container, by way
of an Actionscript Anim Frame (1) and when the Nav.SWF is tested or
published, it indeed loads in the smaller info.SWF no problems and
scrolls around beautifully,
The Info.SWF's I'm creating is just basically embedded
dynamic text, with a few movie clips that have Behaviours when
clicked or rolled-over.
These Behaviours do not seem to work when the Nav.SWF's
window pane loads in the Info.SWF - they APPEAR clickable (mouse
pointer changes to hand) but nothing clicks and THEN works. The
rollover animations (actioned via behaviours from LABELS - not
frame numbers) also do not work?
Any ideas from those that know to those that struggle would
be greatly appreciated! It's the first time I've encountered a
problem with my Flash website that I can't seem to find an answer
to in all my tutorials and books!
There's a challenge!

My movie swf loaded into another swf

Maybe I'll have better luck posting in this forum
I cant get the movie I have loaded in ( a quiz ) to display
the statistics about how many I have got wrong/right.
is it possible to get it to show the data because it is the
main part of the movie after the user has completed it.
Do I need to put in the Drag and Drop things as well?
Each quiz has one of these. Will the movie find the right
details?
Why should it do this?
I am using load movie actionscript

Loading external SWF's into an SWF Loader as3 style?

Hi,
I've recently made the switch from as2 to as3 and am still struggling to get my head around one aspect in particular. I've managed to load one external swf into a blank file via the script
import LoadDisplayObject;
var loader:LoadDisplayObject = new LoadDisplayObject("button_01.swf", true);
loader.addEventListener("displayObjectLoaded", onComplete, false, 0, true);
addChild(loader);
function onComplete(evt:Event):void {
     trace("loaded complete received");
     loader.scaleX = loader.scaleY = .75;
.....however I'm struggling with the script to make a swfs load into a space when one of my 3 buttons is clicked....
My page currently has three buttons (button_01, button_02 and button_03) and in a local folder three separate swfs with the same names which I wish to load in, when the appropriate button is pressed.
I have managed to get them to load in using a tutorial...however they load over the top of each over...far from ideal. From research on the internet I've found a range of different script...but I just can’t find anywhere I can find script to make this work..hence why I have turned to here.
Any help much appreciated...thanks in advance.

Hi,
Just throught I would let you know that I've manged to get this to work this morning. Changed the script slightly and used a different method of:
var home:MovieClip = this;
function butt1Click(evt:MouseEvent):void {
    var ldr:Loader = new Loader();
    ldr.load(new URLRequest("button_01.swf"));
    ldr.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.INIT, loaded);
function butt2Click(evt:MouseEvent):void {
    var ldr:Loader = new Loader();
    ldr.load(new URLRequest("button_02.swf"));
    ldr.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.INIT, loaded);
function butt3Click(evt:MouseEvent):void {
    var ldr:Loader = new Loader();
    ldr.load(new URLRequest("button_03.swf"));
    ldr.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.INIT, loaded);
function loaded(evt: Event):void {
    if(contentClip.numChildren > 0){
        contentClip.removeChildAt(0);
    contentClip.addChild(evt.target.content);
button_01.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, butt1Click);
button_02.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, butt2Click);
button_03.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, butt3Click);
seems to work well. Only small question is if I want one page to load automatically upon opening...how do I alter the script to do this??? Thanks

Closing swf loaded into movie clip

I have built a movie clip on my main flash file that I am loading separate swfs into. On the separate swfs I have a close button, but do not know what action script to attach to it to make the movie clip go away? I want these to go away every time you hit the close button on the separate Flash swfs loading into the main movie clip.

if the target movieclip has a non-negative depth and the close button is encoded on the loaded swf's main timeline, you can use:
var tl:MovieClip=this;
path.closeBtn.onRelease=function(){
tl.removeMovieClip();

Flex swf loaded in Flash swf

Hi,
I have a Flex swf loaded into a Flash swf.
I have made the Flex swf transparent, so that the buttons in the Flash swf are visible.
But im unable to interact with the Flash swf buttons.
My Flex swf is working happyily
The Flex swf overlays the Flash swf.
If i change the scrollRect of the Flex swf so the Flex swf is not overlaying the Flash swf i can successfully interact with the Flash swf buttons.
Any ideas?
Regards,
Kyle

Thanks Alex,
I actually found an old post on a forum where you recommended a similar solution (mousesheld.visible = false).
This seems to work although it messes with dragging (my Popups at least).
But i can work with that for now, thanks for your help.

Kyle

Pushed my site live and my links don't work

I used Godaddy to register my domain. I am also using their DNS settings.
Created the site in Muse and previewed everything before I published... everything worked fine.
However, once I published the site and changed my settings upon prompt in Business Catalyst, only the homepage loads and my links don;t work.
I am only linking to one other page.
I pointed my host name on GoDaddy to 192.150.2.140
I have deleted my site 3 times now and republished. Set my links to lowercase etc.
the site domain is www.taxiadzbyg.com
Any help is much appreciated! I've read so many things, I am completely confused now as of where to start.
Thanks everyone.

Hi,
I have checked the settings, they all look good to me. Also, I have checked the hyperlinks and they were working too.

Some links don't work in Safari

I ran a whole bunch of software updates a while ago (funny, after the entire process, nothing actually updated... I had to run it again later), and somehow, in the process, something went wrong with Safari. Now, some links don't work. It's mostly links in the content portions of webpages. For example, things like the Store/Mac/etc buttons at the top of the Apple site work fine, but things like links in forum signatures don't. I have to open them in a new tab. I tried updating Safari, but it didn't fix anything. I've tested Firefox and Camino and they work fine, but Safari is my browser of choice, so this is pretty irritating. Any ideas as to what's causing this and how to fix it?

You might try installing a fresh version of SafariStand and see if you still have the problem with dead links. I'm not familiar with the 'Quick Search' feature but you could have a look at Glims. Don't try to run both Glims and SafariStand together.

I'm having the same issue with non-working iWeb Page links. This was the first site I built on my iWeb, and posted on my .mac account. Everything works on iweb, but once I "publish all to .mac", the links become inactive. I've reset and tried everything but can't figure out what the problem is. Check it out.

Upgraded to CS5; TOC Links don't work in the created PDF from InDesign

We recently upgraded to CS5. When we convert our InDesign User Guide to PDF, the main TOC links don't work. The TOC does function from each chapter page but not from the main TOC. We have done our normal steps in Acrobat to link them. Same issue with various user guides that we have. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks

Thanks for your reply. The problem is the whole page is one image and there should be several clickable areas which point to different links.
To solve this we have put a textbox over the clickable area, disabled the background and stroke and then right clicked on the textbox and used the hyperlink option to turn the whole box in to a hyperlink.
We tried several free PDF convertors which couldn’t handle this combination. Then we trailed it with the full desktop version of Adobe Acrobat Pro and it worked a treat. Unfortunately the client didn’t have that software so we signed them up to the online PDF convertor from Adobe and that isn’t handling it.
Here's the sample document: Dropbox - sample-link.docx we have been doing the tests with.

My in-page html links don't work in Firefox.

I've made som links within the same page in HTML, and they don't function in Firefox, though they work just fine in IE. I've already tried everything on this page: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-and-diagnose-firefox-problems?esab=a&s=links+don%27t+work+in+firefox&r=19&as=s
This has been a problem for years now. Why don't in-page anchor links work? I'm just using html with Wordpad to create my pages, not any CSS.

House Rules at the top of the page.

This would be the correct manner. Dump the # and close that '''a name''' tag immediately.

Links don't work and Resolution Low

Hi
Just made 2 temp pages for my site, published to a folder and used Transmit to FTP upload to my serverspace which is hosted by yahoo.
The files transfer over but for some reason none of the hyperinks work at all and the resolution of the page is much lower than how it looked in iWeb which was pretty crisp. Anyone experience this problem? I urgently need to get the links working. All help appreciated!
Thanks
sven

I've got a similar problem with links. They work fine on my mac and some pc, even my Palm Treo can access the site's links. But several pc users swear the links don't work. I made a test page with microsoft word and posted on .mac and it's the same problem. Anyone know what could cause this?

Links don't work after publishing

Hi! I'm new to using IWeb and I have recently encountered a problem:
When I publish the content to a folder, the pages that I initially designed, don't appear exactly the same in the new folder. The links in the navigation menu don't work in the new folder (except the ones in the "home page") and some of the text is not displayed the way I designed it...
I'd appreciate if you could take a look at my website and try the navigation bar out to see that some of the navigation bar's links don't work. Why they work in the main page and 2 other and not in all of them?

I've got my fingers crossed! I think I've got it fixed! Thanks so much to you and everyone who's posted here. I DID have a text box within a text box and it was in the back(ground). This has just been so frustrating. This was my first shot at doing a web page....not to mention being new to the Apple arena. (I've had PCs, literally, for years). I appreciate your patience with someone learning the ins/outs of YOUR world.

Somehow your whole page text images etc has been
rendered as one big image, which overlaps the nav
bar

Check to see if the text box overlaps the nav
bar/header and move it down to fix it.

Links don't work zoomed, issue not solved?

I've been waiting for months on this issue;
when zoomed, zoomed to anything, links don't work in Safari.
I was told months ago, something is wrong with Safari toolkit.
I just updated and issue remains.
(just amazing)
<Edited by Host>

HI,
Try maintenance... the link works perfect here; Safari 4.0.5 SL 10.6.2
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset.
Go here for trouble shooting *3rd party plugins or input managers* which might be causing the problem. Safari: Add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
Since you are running Snow Leopard, *make sure Safari is opening in 32-bit mode, not 64.* Right or control click the Safari icon in the Applications folder, then click: Get Info In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle next to General so it faces down. Select 32 bit mode. Also, (in that same window) *make sure Safari is NOT running in Rosetta.*
  Web pages now include a small icon or 'favicon' which is visible in the address bar and next to bookmarks. These icons take up disk space and slow Safari down. It is possible to erase the icons from your computer and start fresh. *To delete Safari's icon cache using the Finder, open your user folder, navigate to ~/Library/Safari/ and move this file "webpageIcons.db to the Trash.*

When I email a newsletter as a pdf, the links don't work

I am creating a newsletter that I want to email out and I have some text linking to webpages. However, when I send it as a pdf, the links don't work. Do I need to send it as a Word document? I don't want to have to send a document that large. Is there anyway to keep my file size small (ie pdf) and have the links work?
Thanks

Ah that is different.
It may be you are just seeing a preview of the pdf in the email, which is why the link is not working.
I would certainly not rely on people seeing even that. Most PC users do not see pdfs embedded in their email, just an attachment. Even Mac users see various results depending on how many pages the pdf contains.
I am working on newsletter emails for a client right now and the lack of standards and inconsistent results in email clients is extremely frustrating.

My links don't work when I combine another file with the pdf

My internal bookmarked links don't work when I combine another file with the pdf.
The external links continue to work fine, though.
This doesn't make any sense to me at all ... but I'm hoping one of you kind folk can help?

I opened my file and instead of merging files I used insert pages and inserted all of the pages from the file I wanted. Then I saved the file with
the same name. Attached is a rough draft of some helpful hints I put together. This has been a very painful process for us to discover how to handle
this and there really is not much help from Adobe.
Instead of merging files you inset pages. In Acrobat select Document - Insert pages -From file. You can select all pages or some and where you want them inserted. After you do that save the file not save as and all of your links should work. If you combine files or merge files all of the links will break.

I think it's something to do with naming, but I can't figure out what. This is because it asks to be saved and gives me a Binder no as the name. If I
press Cancel at that point, I keep the file and the links. But as soon as I need to close it, it asks me again 'Do you want to save this file' and if
I say 'Yes', I lose all the links, and if yet if I say 'No', I lose the whole file. So at some point it has to be saved but whether I keep the Binder
no name when I save it, or use the original name, it makes no difference ... it is in the saving of it that it looks the functionality, and yet, if I
don't save it, I lose the file.
This makes no sense to me....I hope it does to one of you.
For instance, Christine, how did you keep your file if you couldn't save it?
Or have I misunderstood?
