    global to local x/y thing

    This question is in regards to a pseudo mouseOver call, but instead of having the mouse go over a button, I want the movieclip to go back to frame one when the x or y of the mouse from within the movie clip goes over 50 pixels of the origin of the axis(i.e., +/-50 on each axis.) I've tried...

    remembering text as a variable

    Ok. I'm sure I could figure this out, but it is of no use for some reason. I have a mc that has a title which is drawn from an xml file which loads into the appropriate text variable. On the mouse over of the movie clip, I need for the text to dissapear, but on the leaving of the clip I...

    your assistance please

    OK. THis site's almost done, so if you folks would check out www.groove-on.com/detroit and tell me what does not work I'd totally appreciate it. Some of the buttons are dead ends (it's not my job)so you can ignore those. However, after the initial popup nothing should load into that window...

    in association to previous post

    Ok. I'm now able to load up the specific image based upon the xml file previously shown. For some reason, it won't load the swf into a target. I think this has something to do with them not being on the time line, but loading due to being configured with arrays. Anyhow, how to I reference...

    Suggestions

    OK. I've been absent from this forum for a while due to the advent of flash 5 and that I normally do web stuff, and flash 5 was capable of most of the things Director 8 could do (to a certain extent). The question is this. Is there anything aside from the 3d engine in 8.5 that makes it...

    more xml stuff (Dave?)

    Ok. I've managed to figure out how to duplicate clips, change links, and do all kinds of wonderful things using xml integrated into flash. What I'm having a hard time doing is setting up the xml image file to load into a movie clip. Heres the xml tier for a given button. <name> loads into the...

    Urgent! Big Proglem!

    I'm trying to finish this site, and all of a sudden there's a huge problem. She goes to look at it and sees the background color and even a movie that loads into another level, but no graphical content. There's a line of code which says something to the degree of &quot;align=...

    Dynamic GIF files?

    Does anyone know how to load an external image into flash so that it can be dynamically updated by the end user? I'd hate to have to get into actual html and stuff at this point in the game, though I can if I have to. This guy wants to be able to change images which have static links. Perhaps...

    attention dave

    Hello, I'm trying to use your pop up javascript full screen device and it works very well. However, I am for no understandable reason unable to load .swfs into targets. Any ideas why that is? It all works great outside of the full window and everything loads like a charm. I scoured all of...

    loading swf/xml file into a target

    Ok, I'm trying to load a swf into a mc of another movie so I can easily set it to be draggable and also expand and contract. I have no problem loading it into a level, but when I load into a movie clip (yes, it's named right) it doesn't load up. It's hard to tell what's happening because it's...

    yet again...

    Here's another one: I'm wondering if there's a way to have a button load an mp3 into an already open flash movie. I think I can do it with Director, but I'd love to keep the whole site in Flash. I'm racking my brain, and I'm thinking it can be done with cgi or xml, but if anyone knows if...

    For some reason, I can't figure out

    For some reason, I can't figure out how to have a button load a new browser window without any of the amenities (i.e, nav bar, location, etc.). I know there's someone who can help with this one. I'm building a jukebox and want it to pop up and be able to be minimized, but I only want it to be...

    new netscape and flash

    I've not been around for a while, but here's a new issue. I've been told that netscape 20.3 (or whatever it's up to) doesn't play back flash movies. Is this true? I've had people view my latest stuff (made with flash 5) on macs and pcs and all is fine using either browser. Except for...

    Dynamically updating xml files

    I was told that one of the great things about xml is that it can be updated via ASP and you wouldn't have to upload a new xml file to the server everytime you want to change something. Now, this kind of thing is not my strong suit. I am a web artist/tech head with very firm beliefs about...

    more about flash and cdontsmail

    To add to the hot topic of the week(it seems)- For some reason I can't get it to work. I went to flashkit and downloaded everysingle kind of mail program I could find, (cgi, asp) and nothing seems to work. I'm sure I'm missing out on something obvious which everyone is supposed to know, but I...

    xml and flash

    This is conceivably a pretty simple question, because I've figured out most of the hard parts. Here goes. I've built an xml page to load into a movie target with text variables. For example, text variable 1 is called &quot;title&quot;, 2 is &quot;body&quot; and so on. In the xml page, I...

    new to asp

    I have been designing web pages for a while now, but have only recently been deeply interested in what you can do with asp. I'm wondering if there is a good book out there which can actually explain this stuff without going over the top? Any suggestions are appreciated. Blended

    loading an html frame from a flash movie

    OK. I've almost made it, but I still have a major problem. I'm building a site using 3 frames: a top, middle and bottom. The bottom contains all of the site controls in a single flash movie comprising many buttons, and then standard html text buttons which are supposed to load a file into the...

    controlling flash movies from other flash movies

    Is it possible to have a movie pass a variable to another movie if they are not embedded in the same flash movie but are on the same html page? I can't figure out a way to make it work, and it might not even be possible. Any help or suggestions is very much appreciated. blended

    window transparency on an html page

    I've tried setting window transparencies on a flash movie in an html page using quotes, not using quote, using both...I still can't get background transparencies to work on a MAC. It works fine on a pc, but as most of us know that's not good enough. I'm using Flash 4, by the way (I don't now...
