Awesome, I used the timer control, and it works perfectly, Thanks a million! Although on thing, the unload event DOES work in response to a click event of a normal button... just FYI Thanks again!

Hi all, I am having an odd problem with objects in a control array. I can load then fine, but for some reason, I cannot call the unload command where I want to. I have a combobox where, when the user selects "End" all of the control array components beyond that unload. But, when I try to do...

Wow, nevermind... I just tried it and it works... thats so odd... it didn't work last night... Nevermind, I guess. Thanks for checking though! :-)

You can see the "What is capoeira?" frame? I know the index works ok, it just seems to have problems loading that movie that should come up when you select the About - Capoeira menu option. Fion

ok, I have a slight problem, I'm hoping somone can help me with. I have an index page with a menu that loads movies into it's main frame. One of the movies will show up locally just fine, and it will show up in dreamweaver just fine, but when I upload it to the server, it does not show up. To...

excellent, thank you! That is exactly what I needed

I know how to make this work for a combobox (search for autocomplete combobox on here and you will find the detailed description) I'm not sure how this would be done in a textbox, but I have one or two ideas. First, what about when your user types a letter, in that _keypress function, you just...

I am using _global before the variable. That what I ment when I said I had a global variable. Should I also use Var? The problem is, when I set the global var equal to somthing inside a function, it does not actaully set the variable globally, it only stays at what I have set it until that...

Hi all, I have a pretty simple question. I have a global var that I declare in the main level of the movie. I then set it to assorted movieclip paths inside functions. But the problem is, when the function ends, the variable empties. I need a varible that I can pass between functions (this will...

I haven't set it to dismiss the menu, as the menu is always there. It closes the submenu in the openmenu.play() command. Then it opens the selected menu, and sets it as the openmenu. The problem is that once a movieclip is played the button that played the movieclip no longer works. Fion

Noone? Is this a totally new problem?

Hi all, I have an... intersting problem. Something tells me it is a really simple one.. I hope so :-) I have been build a full site in flash, and I am now working on the menu for the index page. I have dropdown menus that will (eventually) slide down and reveal new options each time a menu...

Hi all, I have a flash translating program that uses Remoting with the babelfish web service. Now it works great, except for one thing, when I translate from english to portuguese, anytime there is a non-english character in the string returned from the web service, it messes up. No I am...
