  • Hi,

    You can place the link/buttons into movieclips. Example:

    place button1 on movieclip with instance name=btn01
    place button2 on movieclip with instance name=btn02

    On btn01 movieclip
    put stop on the first frame. This will display the button/link
    on the second frame, just put a blank frame or a fading animation and a stop() actionscript at the end. Do the same for btn02

  • I think it meant insert a new frame. If you want to make a walking man which animates, you should first know how animation works. Like the oldschool stuff, it is a collection of changing graphics like how disney cartoons were created.

    Now draw your Man on a Frame, after that.. right-click on the next frame and click Insert New keyframe. This will create a new key frame that contains the stuffs as the previous. This is where you will...

    replied to loading an external movie on EnterFrame
    Hi,

    You can load an swf movie inside a movie clip.
    example:

    First create the movie you want to display (any movie) when it reaches a certain frame.Name this file as MyMovie and save it on drive C:, Compile to produce the MyMovie.swf.

    MyMovie.swf **this is the file we will display inside another swf.

    Create a new flash file.Create a movieclip with instance name "swfloader" ....

    Hi rsjpx,

    I'll just clear if I get what you're trying to do.You have an swf file embedded on your html page. You want it to disappear from your html page when it is over or you click a link/button.. is this correct? simplest way is to hyperlink to a dummy page which displays the same contents except the swf file. Another is through ASP. When the page loads, it checks a certain variable before it displays the swf file. Example:

    replied to particle effects / moving backgrounds
    Hi,

    Are you referring to the backgrounds of each speaker? ..I think it is a video edit. The speaker is clearly a video that floats, while the background can be a video loop. They just converted it to flash to be more accessible. Anyway, It is also possible to do it with flash, but it requires alot of creativity and practice. Play around with multiple movieclips, alpha, masking and gradients. Goodluck.

  • Hi,

    I'm not familiar with flash 8. But on previous Flash versions, you can publish a transparent GIF file.

    Under File-> Publish Settings-> Check on the GIF Image extension and a GIF tab will appear-> GIF tab-> Under Transparent-> Change the default "Opaque" to"Transparent" . Then Click Publish.

    Hope this helps.

    Run exe in asp

    I'm trying to launch an exe when I click a button/link. Is there a way to do it in ASP without using WScript?

    Simple Scenario:

    My Website displays the status of my 4 servers (on/off). When a server is "on" I would display a link/button that would launch a vncviewer (if installed).

    Thanks.

    replied to Make Buttons disappear
    Hi Maril,

    Yes it is possible. You just have to put your button inside a movieclip first so you can access it dynamically.

    Example:

    Create your four buttons, now create a movieclip, place the first button there and name the movieclip btn01. Then create another movieclip, place the second button there and name it btn02. Repeat the steps with the other buttons.So now, you have four buttons and four movieclips....

    How to parse a text file in ASP?

    **How do I parse a textfile and edit only a certain part of it. Specifically, just the

  • I studied CGI because I need to run a remote file, and most common tutorials in CGI used perl programming.. So I practiced some perl and used it to ping my servers. Specifically, Net::Ping.. Here is my code.

    use Net::Ping;

    my $ip1 = 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xx x';
    my $p = Net::Ping->new();
    print "Server Online\n"
    if $p->ping($ip1);
    $p->close();
    print "Server Offline\n"...

    Realtime server status page - slow on refresh

    I'm new to perl. And I studied it because I really need to use CGI on my project. I have a website which pings my 10 VMware servers, now I display the status of the servers on a webpage. (online or offline) ..I use autorefresh on the page but it loads too long.

    1.) Is there anyway to resolve this? Is there anyway that I can just loop the ping commands and not refresh the whole page?

    2.) through the site, also I want...
