The best way I know how to explain my problem is to show it. Go to www.wandohigh.com/index_test.html and you will see a big main flash movie smack in the middle of the page. There are dropdown...

Anybody out there have any ideas on how I can fix this annoying problem?

There are tons of tutorials out there on how to make things have the type of easing motion that you're looking for.

My road block/mental block is this: I am making a menu system. Submenus (that is, a menu inside a menu) have a small arrow on them indicating that they are submenus. I drew them using the...

To have it reset the input box to a "?" if the user doesn't type anything, put in this code...

I was working on an example for you as well, but nunomira posted before me. What he posted will work just fine as far as I can tell, but I didn't want to let my work go wasted, so here's another...

I would have shown this earlier but I was at work. Here it is now.

I am making a menu system that will load from an XML file, and one thing, which makes no sense, is really miffing me.

<menus>
<menu name="Menu 1">
<entry name="Choice 1"...

What you can do is target the level that you loaded the movieclip into. In the example you used, the movie clip was loaded into level 1, so you could target home.swf like this


_level1._x = 55;...

numberWithLetters = inp1.text.toLowerCase(); // store what is in the input textbox into this variable

numberWithoutLetters = "";

for ( i=0 ; i<numberWithLetters.length - 1 ; i++) {
switch...

It didn't cross my mind to do that, but it makes a lot of sense that it would work that way.

Thanks a lot!

The problem with the code you have written is that your string variable, inp1, is constantly changed during your loop. Looking at that code I would say that it is an infinate loop.

What you...

Hey all,

Does anybody know if there is any way to generate an event, say for a movie clip. An example would be to make a movie clip believe it's been dragged over.

I want to do this because I...

I ran into one more problem. All of my code is written in my movie clip under the event handler for "data". But attaching the movie using attachMovie doesn't dispatch that event. Is there a way...

Thanks a ton!!!
I've been wracking my brain on how to do this and it had really brought me to a roadblock! I was hoping not to have to create a new movie clip, so that I could keep the size as...

I have a very small problem that is becoming very frustrating. I know there is a simple solution to it, but I just can't come up with it.

I have an array declared on my frame (the one and only...

on (release) {
_parent.gotoAndStop("inst");
}

it might also benifit you to look into hexadecimal numbers. Do a google search about them, then deatBeat's code up there will make more sense to ya, and you may not have needed to ask your question...

mathematically your code should work. but i think the problem is that Flash isnt comming up with the exact numbers that can be depended on to keep the movie clip infinately up and down in the same...

Alrighty, i'll give this a shot... this is not be the best method of doing this, but it seems like it will be the way that you will best be able to get it done.

For every response that you want...
