Flash Problem - sometimes the buttons will load the wrong link.

savge17
Its weird but sometimes when you hit the forums or roster button on my flash banner it will load: www.childrenofconan.trap17.com/index.html instead of what its suppost to. It works fine, but if you mess around and click the buttons for a little bit you will notice this happening. This is a problem because people visiting the site will sometimes click the button once and be like oh I guess the link is broken and never come back, if anyone has a solution to what could be the problem it would be awesome. This is one of my first custom flash banners and im just confused what I am doing wrong =/

The banner is here at: http://www.ageofilluminati.com

Please if anyone could help it would be very much appreciated. If you need the flash file in order to help me please feel free to (pm) me in this matter because it needs to get fixed asap. Thank you.

Note: Ive been messing around with it some more and I noticed that it will usually do this around the edge of the flash button more towards like the bottom edge of the bottom (so right below the letters forum or roster).

Edit: added more details. & BUMP.

What is the action script action for that button you are using. And also could there perhaps be a button or movie clip behind the button that is set to go to your older site. Perhaps if you sent us the .fla I can take a look at it and tell you what is going on.

Unfortunately my version of flash is too old to open that file you sent me. You will need to wait for another member who has a more recent version of flash to open it up and diagnose the issue for you. You might also get more attention if you asked a moderator to move this thread in Programming languages>other subforum because this most likely is an actionscript issue.

Bah I cant export of versions that old, lol that kinda blows... Oh well here is the coding im using for the button. Its a simple code, maybe if I use an older verszions code it will work better? Im not really sure how it works b/c sometimes older codes dont work so well. sad.gif Anyways here it is:

CODE
on (release) {
    //Goto Webpage Behavior
    getURL("http://www.ageofilluminati.com/forums/index.php","_self");
    //End Behavior

}

Still around? Reply and I'll take a look.

Note - I use AS3, so there no promises I'll be able to find out what's wrong, but I'll try tongue.gif

The same thing happened to me once, try this code

CODE
navigateToURL(new URLRequest('"http://www.ageofilluminati.com/forums/index.php","_self'));


Instead of just putting

CODE
getURL("http://www.ageofilluminati.com/forums/index.php","_self");


And if that doesn't work try

CODE
navigateToURL(new URLRequest('"http://www.ageofilluminati.com/forums/index.php"'));


If it still doesn't work try

CODE
navigateToURL(new URLRequest('http://www.ageofilluminati.com/forums/index.php'));


I'm not entirely sure it will work, but it worked for me once.

  6. Flash - Streaming Flv With Interactible Objects
    Actionscript 3.0 - syncronising swf with flv (3)
    Hi Guys, I am trying to make a flash based web site. The idea is to have a flv video streaming
    which has people moving around and the people need to be clickable objects. I tried tracing the
    video by importing the flv to the flash time line and creating a button that follows a person in
    each frame. I then remove the flv video from the timeline and stream it using actionscript. This
    leads to synchronization issues. Does anyone know if this combination of swf and flv has ever been
    implemented? If so could you please refer me to the source or post a link to an example, i....

  11. Flash Vs. Java Applets
    (2)
    As I started to learn Java, I came across a tutorial for making Java applets. As I read on, I found
    some similarities between Java applets and Flash movies. Right when I saw the source code for a
    checkerboard picture made in Java, I said to myself, Flash beats Java applets big time! It also took
    a while to load such a small applet when in Flash it instantly loaded. In my opinion, I think flash
    beats Java applets when it comes to convenience, appearance, load time, animation, and more (except
    AJAX). Here are two articles, first supporting java applets and the other flas....

  16. Playing Flash Movies Without The One-click Activation: Simple Insertion Of Javascript

    In the past year or two iternet explorer and other browsers have updated their coding platforms.
    The bad thing is that if you have any flash objects at all within your web page you have to hit the
    space bar or click on the flash object to activate it. Once you activate it, you then can interact
    with the object or the object will then play on the website. I dont like how you have to activate
    the flash player first to interact with it. here is the code to prevent that. Believe me people
    notice how much better the site is after you do this. put under the flash player. ....

    How to Link a URL using getURL() (9)
    Linking a URL to a Button in Flash This seems to be a problem for beginners to Flash, and I

    you've created your button on the page, you can link the button very simply. Right-click it, and
