Flash help! please!

Hi,

I'm new to flash and I'm trying to create a navigation bar with 4 buttons, each with a different URL when you hit them.

However, when I put this code in for one of the buttons

function goflowers(event:MouseEvent):void
{
var targetURL:URLRequest = new
URLRequest("http://www.trward.com/flowers")
;
navigateToURL(targetURL);
}
flowersbtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goflowers);

So then what ?!?!

Doh,

The rest of my post has vanished!

Basically, when I put that code on one button it applies to all the buttons and I want different URL for each button!

Can you attach ur fla file ?

Great, thanks

Please remember when looking at it that this is the first time I've used flash!

TRwardhome.fla (381.5 KB, 5 views)

When I test it, it only response to home button not to others. So is this right way ?

No, that's my problem. I need each button to go to different URL so

homebtn goes to www.trward.com/index.html
flowersbtn goes to www.trward.com/flowers.html
foliagebtn goes to www.trward.com/foliage.html
contactbtn goes to www.trward.com/contact.html

But once I've put the actionscript in on the home button, I can't added a different code to the other buttons! Does this makes sense?

Use this codes :

Code: Select all

function gohome(event:MouseEvent):void {
    var targetURL:URLRequest = new
    URLRequest("http://www.trward.com/index");
    navigateToURL(targetURL);
}
homebtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gohome);

function goflowers(event:MouseEvent):void {
    var targetURL:URLRequest = new
    URLRequest("http://www.trward.com/flowers.html");
    navigateToURL(targetURL);
}
flowersbtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goflowers);

and make two others like them and change the button names in the code as function names...

You're a star, thank you so much. I would have been at this for hours!

I didn't realize you put all the coding in at once. I thought each box should have it's own code.

Thanks once again!

Welcome, change your post to Solved .
