Weblinks work within preview but not once exported to swf

As the title states really. I've set up button with weblinks and they work fine fromt he preview page, bt once exported to swf they no longer work. Is there a limit to how long they can be? Do I need something like tinyurl?

Phew! I was just about to chuck the computer through the window.
Thanks for taking time to answer.

  • Two issues getting a headless error form windows & my clips audio plays in the preview but not once placed in th timeline. I taped with a panasonic HC 750 V. i believe it is with clips filmed using directed not surround audio.

    The title more or less says it all. I have Elements 13 & am Using the Panasonic HC 750V. I shot in AVCHD 1080/60p & instead of surround sound choose the directed feature to focus on the voices in front of me. The audio works in preview but not on the timeline. I am also getting Headless errors when working with premiere that pop up in windows but it does not shut down the system.
    Any help apprecaited.

    Have you updated your Premiere Elements 13 to 13.1 using an opened project's Help Menu/Update. If not, please do so.
    Just some points of clarification on the AVCHD 1080/60p with which you are having audio problem in Premiere Elements 13.
    a. I see no option to record to tape with your Panasonic model. Is there one? if not, what was recorded to, a memory card?
    b. When you talk about directed not surround audio, are you saying that your video uses Dolby Digital 2 channel stereo instead of 5.1 channel?
    c. Is your AVCHD footage presented to you as AVCHD.mts rather than AVCHD.mp4. I think that is the case if you are referring to Dolby Digital
    rather than AAC audio.
    Are you saying that you get play back video and audio if you double click the video's thumbnail in Project Assets, but you get video but no audio after you drag the file to the Timeline and play back its contents in the Edit area monitor?
    a. Have you checked the Volume control under the Adjust Tab/Adjustments Palette/Volume Panel expanded to make sure the Volume has been taken all the way down? Under that condition, you will get play back in the Preview Window, but no audio from the Timeline level play back in the Edit area monitor.
    b. In that same regard, if you look at the Timeline audio clip, note a yellow orange line that runs horizontally across the duration of the audio clip. Is that at the bottom of the frame or is it in the middle or at the top?
    Do you work with the Elements Organizer at all? That Headess issue sounds like an Elements Organizer issue. More on that later. That issue should not prevent you from continuing your work. But we will explore that next.
    Thanks.

  • XML (RSS) Spry Dataset File Works in Preview But Not Over Internet

    hello
    I am trying to build a custom feed reader using the Spry framework in Dreamweaver CS4 and everything seems to go smoothly until I actually host the file (with the accompanying js and css files) and try to view it over the internet
    previewing from DW shows everything working the way it should
    I feel like I am missing something obvious ... but not sure what
    thanks for any help!

    Hi, i have a similar problem..
    These URL returns a XML:
    1) http://www.bolsadesantiago.com/intradayServlet?symbol=IPSA
    2) http://www.valorfuturo.com/contenidos_vf/proyectos/clientes/penta/titularnoticias.asp
    I use a CS4 and both works in preview, but only first works over internet (IE7).
    I suspect that 2° has a problem of syntax XML, but work with jQuery.

  • Simple buttons working in Preview, but not on iPad

    Hello everyone. I have a Button (I'm working in InDesign CS6), with instructions "Go to State". It links to a photo on a seperate layer. The link works perfectly in the SWF preview (shift-command-return). But when I update the file to view it in Adobe Viewer it does not work. (I am using Viewer Vers 25) There are no other functions on the page that could be "blocking" it. In fact, on some pages where there are two or three buttons (all of them with instructions of "Go to State"), 2 may work and one not. I am confused as to how I can see it working in the Preview, but not on the iPad. Any suggestions appreciated. Many thanks!!

    Bob, just got in and downloaded the patch - the buttons are working perfectly now!!
    Thank you for taking the time to help me out!! I'll be more diligent from now on in checking for updates. Thanks again. James

  • Effect works in the preview, but not after export. (10.1.1)

    Hi all.
    I am new to FCP, making a simple slide show movie with some Ken Burns images, music and titles. For one image there is some color correction, Ken Burns, and I want the image to fade from Black and White to Color. I did this by adding the Black and White effect, choosing "show video animation" in the timeline and making the B&W effect gradually decrease. It works perfectly in the preview, but when I share the video, the effect is always missing (it just stays B&W). I have tried:
    Undoing and redoing the effect
    Exporting to different formats
    Turning off background rendering and deleting render files
    to no avail. Any thoughts?
    Thanks in advance!

    I'm hoping to avoid updating until after this movie is delivered. I find it best not to tinker with stable software mid-project. Maybe if I get desperate enough I'll give it a whirl, though.

  • Audio ducking working in aperture preview but not in exported video

    I'm using a mix of stills and video and the soundtrack level ducks during the videos when in aperture, but when i export the movie, both the video clip and soundtrack audio are at 100%
    I've tried exporting to a few of the different presets and it makes no difference.
    Anyone have any ideas?
    I'm on aperture 3.1.2  on 2x2.8 quad core mac pro

    I think this is just a glitch - I duplicated the project and when I click on the video clips in the duplicate the ducking control slider had re-appeared, and the sound was as expected on export.

  • Interactive PDF–buttons working in preview but not in PDF

    I have a series of buttons that reveal hidden graphics. One of those hidden graphics is a background layer, in a separate layer, that should appear when a button is clicked. It is showing up, but in front of all other content, even though the layer is in the background. I have nothing else on the background layer. Also, the preview in InDesign shows this working properly, it's the exported Interactive PDF that is having problems. Any suggstions?

    Show/hide buttons can let you show and hide graphics which have been themselves turned into buttons. But in InDesign, they cannot control the visibility of layers. I think that's because of the way buttons are handled in the PDF file. I think the buttons themselves are seen as a separate layer above the "content" of the PDF.
    You can change layer visiblity with buttons but not in InDesign. You have to do it in Acrobat.
    Create your layers in InDesign. Export as a PDF but in the Export Adobe PDF dialog box, you must select Acrobat 6 compatibility and check Create Acrobat Layers. This takes InDesign layers and makes them PDF layers which you can work with in Acrobat.
    You can either create the buttons in InDesign or in Acrobat, but controlling layer visibility isn't an available action in InDesign. So you'll need to change their action WITHIN ACROBAT.
    In Acrobat, you can choose View > Navigation Panels > Layers. You can turn the eyes on and off to control visibility like in InDesign. Then set the layer visibility the way you want the first button to set and set the action for the first button to be Set Layer Visibility. When you click Add. It sets the visibility to the current state. Repeat the process for the second button.
    In InDesign CS5, to export buttons you'll need to choose File > Export > Adobe PDF (Interactive). Check Acrobat Layers.

  • Flash image viewer works in preview but not online

    Hi
    I followed an online demo on how to get an image slideshow on my webpage using flash. It was using insert media image viewer. It all worked fine, looked great in the preview but when I put everything online I can't see it. Just an empty space were it should be. This is the site where it is
    http://www.idoityourself.com.au/ if tried moving the image to different areas in case it didn't like being in a folder within a folder etc but still didnt work. Any ideas??
    thanks

    http://www.idoityourself.com.au/Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js File not found.
    You have not uploaded the Scripts folder to your server which DW generated automatically for you when you inserted the Flash.

  • Site works in preview but not when uploaded to the web

    I have been trying to add a link from my website to another project I have been doing, a mini site made with Flash.
    I wanted the link to open up a new window with the animation playing inside, and it works perfectly when I use "preview in safari" within dreamweaver, but now I've uploaded to the web it just opens up a blank window.
    This is the url for the homepage:
    http://kayleighthompson.com/
    and the link is the ActiveAid button at the bottom of the navigation list.
    If anyone knows how to get this working I'd be very grateful! It's for a uni project due in this afternoon :S

    I think you may be having a problem with how Flash is displayed. The Flash on the first page doesn't display in IE8... although it does in Chrome. The second page doesn't display in either. Your link is correct. I checked that.
    Wish I could be more helpful, I'm having the same issue with IE and DW CS4 myself, and can't figure it out.
    This may help: http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/wiki/documentation
    Good luck! Let me know if you figure it out.

  • Works in preview but not when published in captivate 8?

    My youtube widget used in captivate 8 works just fine in the preview, but when published there's nothing where the video should be, any idea as to why?

    Hi Robert,
    as far as I understand your post, you are missing some kind of "button-artwork" in the published file, but do not report a problem with the "action" that the script should perform.
    My guess would be that it will be hard to help you without having a better understanding what your trying to achive and how (are you using a prebuilt component, or did you build the button fron scratch etc....)
    It might be even necessary to have a look at the fla itself.

  • Swap images works in preview but not in browser

    Hi everyone,
    I am attempting to get a swap images to work.  It works in the preview window but not when I preview it in the browser.  When I open it in a browser the states seem to "cycle" through really quickly in rapid succession.  I have linked my png file for you to see.  Any thoughts?
    Thanks,
    denbeck

    Your swap image slice is set to Animated GIF. Change it in the Optimize panel to plain GIF or PNG 8

  • Dreamweaver rollover working in preview but not online

    I use image swap for rollovers often. After making some changes to my friends website I noticed all the rollovers stopped working. I tried it in all browsers, I tried restoring a file from time machine, I tried it with a bunch of different images.
    So I tried a very simple blank page with one image on it and "swap image" behavior applied to it. It also displays fine in the preview and not online (Dreamweaver CS5.5)

    Please help, I think I'm going crazy.

    Try using a different FTP client like Filezilla to upload your pages.
    Also check the Line Break type in your Preferences.  See screenshot.
    Hit OK.

    Possibility #2 (and I've done this countless times) is that somewhere along the way in editing, someone inadvertently removed line breaks using the "Find and Replace" feature while cleaning up other code and applied it to more than necessary places.. If that's the case, replace the scripts with redownloaded (or in this case reinstalled) originals. I've broken some really cool scripts this way and I spend a few hours kicking myself in the backside for it, but I always keep a backup of my scripts for when I forget and do it again.
    Nancy's right, though Filezilla is a good solution, but if the pages are corrupted, it will load them as they are, and the problem will persist.

  • PayPal button action works in preview but not when published

    Hi! 
    Any thoughts as to why this works correctly in CS5 publish preview but when I publish it I either get no action or (XP comupter) or a blank page (vista).  Any thoughts or insight would be appreciated.  Also, I'm new to flash and here's the button action:
    on (release) {

  • PortalApp working on Preview but not on Portal

    Hi everybody!
    I'm facing a real very strange situation. I've developed a PAR, which contains two Components. One of them calls the other using AJAX & Prototype. I've tried it on my own machine, and works perfect. I've upload the par to the server which will contain the Portal, created an IView for the par, a Page for the IView, and the preview works fine. But the page doesn't work on the portal. The AJAX request fails, and doesn't reach the server....
    We're connecting the server via VPN.Can that be a problem?
    Thanks in advance, and sorry for my terrible english.
    Eneko

    If application works in Preview and doesn't work in portal page, it could be a permissions issue.
    Did you check the application with same user in both places?
    Previewing the iView with administrator rights is not the same as viewing it in portal with some standrard not-administrator-rights user.
