Ok, I think I've solved my problem with a newly learnt 'getChildByName.

preX = mcholder.image_mc.getChildByName("nmc"+i);

Hi,

I've been working on a project the last few days in AS2 and decided I'd try and re-write it in AS3 as I'm yet to venture in to the AS3 world.

I've done most of the conversion, but I'm stuck...

HI,

Thanks for the reply. Just looking at the code, if the movieclip reaches say the left limit (and the if function no longer kicks in), how would moving the mouse the other way move the clip...

Hi,

I've creating a site that has a long horizontal line of fullscreen background images. Currently, moving the mouse left and right scrolls the images right and left.

I also have left and...

From what I can gather from what you said, you've duplicated the xml data from the file and put it in your flash document.
You do not need to do this.
You can load the xml directly into the...

But it's not large/or wasn't - and for a splash screen I think it is too big - but then I guess that's my opinion and you have yours

What browser are you using? Haven't come across this error before.

Yeah, fair bit of text but it's what the client wants.

I'd agree with snorris. I found the orange a bit too much caused me to leave the site after a couple of clicks.
Maybe a thick black bar or something behind the menu to break the menu from the...

Hi Guys,

Just finished this site.
Have tested in IE8, Safari, Chrome and Firefox 3.5 on PC.
Can you let me know if it works ok for you.
One problem I have seen is viewing the gallery on...

First thing I notice is the slow loading of your images.
Try reduce them down. 300k just for the first image is way too big in my opinion. I think you could get that down below 100k without too much...

Just had a quick look at your file.
Have you thought about using actionscript tweens? Pretty much what you've done so far could all be done on 1 frame with no timeline animation.
Not noticed...

ok, I have to admit, I'm lost as to what your trying to achieve.
I understand the code, but don't understand things like, why you use import gs.*; 3 times.
What is the final outcome of your flash...

I'm only using CS3 - u able to re-save it plus send both fla files so I can maybe give you some pointers on the AS3 re-coding?

Sounds like your problem. An AS2 compiled SWF will not run AS3 code!
I'll take a look at your files after I've finished watching my film :-)

I'm not sure I follow - actions in swf 2 should run fine.
What sort of actions are swf2 doing?

Again, another example zip with actions in swf2.

Maybe you can post a zip of your files and I...

Not sure what your doing wrong.
Here is a simple example. Open swf1.swf and click the button.
It will load swf2 in to the blankmc

Morning - Try using the main tmeline and create a function.
function loadMC () {
_root.loadMovie("0.swf", movieTarget)
}
loadMC();

what version of as?
loadmovie is as2

maybe posting ur code will help us see whats happening...

swf2 shouldn't be placed in the movie, it should be loaded externally when swf1 loads. Get me?
...

Save as CS3 and I'll take a look

just on the timeline, frame 1 so when the flash movie is loaded it will execute init();

Ok, gave up on that idea and took another route.
I was adding links to google calendar events but it removes the html so I just add an | symbol in the tags and google doesn't remove it, then i just...

What kind of window? An html window?
This maybe incorrect but can you use JS in an actionscript function?

function init() {
navigateToURL(new...

Ok, you cannot just import a swf into the Fla for it to work.
You need to use loadMovie(); so swf2 loads into swf1
You could place an emptyMC in your main swf and give it an instance name (ie....

Have you tried somewhere like Flashden.com?

Will something like this work for you?

function removeMC () {
while (movieClipName.numChildren > 0) {
movieClipName.removeChildAt(0);
}
}
