    I was lucky enough to attend FF2K in NYC, and I'm wondering what you'd do different? This is what I found to be the most useful:
    1. Deconstructions of Flash sites
    2. How-to breakouts (e-commerce,...
  3. I GOT IT!!!

    Hey, thanks everybody!
    Here's what the problem was: I was using DOT syntax when I should have been using SLASH syntax since I'm publishing as Flash 4 format!!!

    Beers for everyone who helped!...
  4. Good observations all!

    Currently I've got it set up like this:
    Movie clips with button states and invisible buttons on top in the main movie portion. (Like minorgod suggested.)

    I didn't do a very good job of explaining...

    Here's what I'm trying to do:
    1. I have a big button mc ("port") that has a rollover state.
    2. On top of that button are sub-buttons ("port.portsub"), also each with rollover states.
    3. When I...
  6. THANK YOU!!!

    It's always those simple little bits of logic that trip me up! Thanks! :D
  7. what is WRONG with this simple preloader?!

    This is driving me NUTZ!
    I need to find out if there is just something screwed up with this simple script, or if I'm just misreading the "test movie" data?

    if (_framesloaded == 10) {
    ...

    I've used this script with good results:

    on (release) {
    getURL ("javascript:openNewWindow('<<your url>>','<<window name>>','height=400,width=300,toolbar=no,scrollbar=yes')");
    }

    Just...

    I would like to know this too...

    But actually if you read "loading the spikes" tutorial it makes sense to load just the big stuff that'll be used in the swfs. However: Does it work to load just...

    OK, I don't know why, but I clipped one 'button group' out of the main movie and it WORKS!!!

    However, the big mc WAS on a locked mask layer. Does that mean that actionscript can't target it? Oh,...

    Ooh! Ooh! I think we're getting close. Here's a better explanation:

    Not right now; this is just a small part of a much larger movie network -- it will give all sorts of errors if it's away from its counterparts (and I can't send them ALL)! Thanks though.

    Yup, everything's named... I even used Flash's target dialog box just to make sure they were being "seen" by Flash. Thanks for your help -- it drives me crazy when everything looks right but it STILL...

    A button in the main movie tells the mc within a mc to go to a certain frame label.
    In other words, how do I target the frame label from a button in the main movie?
    (Also, I need to use "tell...

    If I had tickets to give away, I'd want to make sure that people would actually USE them (sure are expensive suckers!). Hotels in San Francisco are about US $150/night, and time's getting short to...

    Maybe you're running a whacked system, but I've been able to open every single FLA I've downloaded. Don't try to double-click the unzipped file. Instead, open the file from WITHIN Flash via the...

    I'm sure this is a simple answer for all you flash masters! I seem to have a mental block against targeting.

    Here's what I have:

    ...and there was no sound but the soft chirping of the crickets. The moon rose silently and surveyed the domain of quiet, while the blackish-blue night permeated all and ensured continued peace.

    Oh Rich, you are the MAN!
    I've been Flashing for 7 months and have successfully avoided preloaders. Until now, due to bitmap overload. Thanks for making it easy to understand! :)
