Hi

I'm more of a motion graphic designer than a web designer so don't know too
much about the technical side of things when it comes to the web.

I have recently built a website which can be viewed at
www.birdmancreative.co.uk

On some computers it works fine but the majority of times when you first view
it and click a button the site goes black. Then if you hit refresh it will
works fine. It's as if there is a bug in there but i don't know what I'm
looking for.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi every one here is my issue, when I mouse over a red square, a yello square
appears below it, which is exactly what I wanted it to do. However, when i
move mouse [b]below[/b] the red square, where the yellow square is hiding, it
makes the yellow sqaure appear. why? I want the yellow square to appear only
if i mouse over the red square, i don't want it to reappear again when I mouse
over the area reserved for it, how can I resolve this?

Hi.

I use flash to make full-flash web-sites. My most recent one is given at:
"http://www.imeranews.gr". As you may notice, in order to open the site in
full-screen I have to use a pop-up window - which by default all browsers block
it. I of course can make it without full-screen popup via other link:
"http://imeranews.gr/ism", but again, when I want to open in new windows my
links I only can do it with pop-ups (getURL+javascripts), which also are
blocked by default.

The main problem, is that most people that see those web-sites, don't know
about the pop-up blockers, and for them the sites doesn't work-doesn't even
start! Even if I give tips on the welcoming screen, on how to allow the
web-sites to open pop-up windows, in some machines pop-up blockers doesn't work
properly according to my reports. Pop-Up blocking is a serious problem due to
the fact, that most people use in primitive ways computers and have no idea
about settings that they have to do in order to view sites correct.

Thus I'd like to ask ways to overpass the pop-up blockers with flash -if there
exist, or ask for alternative web-sites full-flash designs that won't have
problem with pop-ups, even if they use links to other web-sites. Can anyone
give any idea or help with that serious problem?...

Hello.
I am looking for a way to "talk" to some instances on stage.
Can I give them all the same instance name call them like this:
[b]_root.ThatName [/b] ?
Is this possible? Is there another way to call more then one instance?

Hello,
I am working on a Flash template that someone else has made. There is a shape
tween that is just baffling me, and I'd really like to find out how this effect
was done.

It starts with an image on the stage. There appears to be a transparent square
that I can't really seem to see or select. As the shape tweens, the transparent
square gets smaller revealing a black square that covers up the image
underneath. I didn't really explain that right, but it's some sort of masking
effect.

On the keyframe at the end of the tween, I can select the black square and see
it's info, but I can't seem to select anything on the keyframe at the beginning
of the tween. I also can't figure out how the masking was done.

Can someone explain how is this effect achieved?

I'm not sure if this is the best place to put this, but hopefully this could be
included in new versions of the Flash Player. Really what I'm looking for is
just simple support for

, [I], and [B] tags, and block level elements (i.e.
If an image or SWF is embedded in a text field the text would wrap below the
image instead of being required to add multiple
tags to get the text below
it.)

Is this in the pipeline for Flash 10?

hello. I have a flash website that has a 'works" sectin show videos that I
have made. originally they were all Quicktime files with pretty much the same
codecs and the same settings.

I import them onto my stage and flash converts them to flash videos with all
the same settings . HOWEVER.... When I preview the page locally AND when I
upoad to my hosting.... 3 of the videos work but the other 4 don't. I do
everything exactly the same, i just don't get it. And the .flv files are being
uploaded to the server all the same. But still only a few work.

Does anyone of any idea what could be happening? Does this ever happen to
anybody?

TO see what I am talkign about you can check out the website at
www.lazytrumpet.com

I can't think of any more information to give you either. I am truly doing
everything the same in the working videos as I'm doing in the non working
videos.

Hey
Maybe you can help me on getting this ready: I want to animate two different
animations in one file, each with different speeds. for example a menu loading
at 12 fps and a bird suddently flying away at 2 fps.

Thx for helping!

Just starting to work with flash and would like some samples of the
use of the expanding tree.

The adobe site has a sample but can't find it now.

Greetings,

I am curious to know if anyone could help me with a problem I am
having with my website. I decided to do my top banner and menu in
flash. However, I am also using ASP.NET 2.0 with VB.NET to construct
my web pages. My plan is to use panels, one for the top menu, then a
panel for the web-pages which coincide with each button from the flash
menu.

Now the problem is this: How do I use flash to send script to my code-
behind? In other words, if clicking on a button is to make certain
panels visible and others invisible, how would I code that into flash?

Example: I have a button called "butBiography" and panels called
"pnlMain" and one "pnlBiography". "butBiography" is a button in the
flash menu, and those panels are in the web page.

Question: How do I code "butBiography" to make "pnlMain" invisible and
"pnlBiography" visible?

Thanks a bunch!
