    Tweening Dynamic Text

    The font I'm using for the dynamic text field is Arial, so no. Although I will try that and remember that for times when I'm using a non-staandard font.

    Tweening Dynamic Text

    I am trying to figure out how to tween a dynamic text field. My developer has written a part of the website I'm working on to output a text file and they want me to import the text file (which I can do) and have it scroll (bottom to top) through the contents (names, etc). I know you can't...

    GetURL and Close Window in popup

    hmm... I tried onUnload, but that opens a new window, which I sort of expected. I don't want a new window, I just want the parent to be forwarded to a new page once the popup is closed. Is this possible?

    GetURL and Close Window in popup

    That is so simple, it just might work! Thanks oldnewbie, I knew there was an easy way around it and that the answer was just eluding my brain.

    Tazmanian Devil Effect

    I hope you all are having a nice President's Day away from work - unlike me! We just got a new client who wants a flash intro, yes I tried to talk him out of it, with an object that follows a path, to zoom into view while rotating ala Taz. I quickly tried importing the image, making a tween...

    If Loop

    God, this shouldn't be this hard! I am trying to loop a few frames over and over until a counter equals a certain number. And instead of reaching the set number and moving on, I'm stuck in an infinate loop. What am I doing wrong here? // Set Variable shake = 0; //Raise count by 1 var shake...

    Using the ComboBox Component

    I am working on a project where the user can click on a country (from a world map) and see if it has a missle defense system and other information about the it. Some of the countries are so small, that I think the end user might have a problem clicking the right country, so I thought it would...
