I'm seriously struggling with the switch over to Flash CS3 and ActionScript 3.0 - it just doesn't make sense to me, I'm not really a programmer, and although I never did anything more complicated than a getURL action in Flash 8, at least I understood how to do it so it'd work. I can't even do that much in CS3.
I've got a flash banner being used for on the splash page of a website, with 5 buttons being used for navigation. After hours and hours of work and research I was able to make the buttons work correctly a far as loading the right page, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to keep them from opening a new window by default. I found the correct variable SOMEWHERE in the help program, but now I can't find it again. Not that it matters, really, because I used a quick-and-dirty method to get the links working in the first place and I couldn't figure out how to work the variable into the code I'd already written.
The code I have written so far is behind the cut - can someone please help me figure out how to make the links open in the parent window??
( Read more...Collapse )I know there is a better way to do what I've already done, too, I just honestly can't figure out how to do it :(
