I don't understand how Step 22 is done. I'd create an invisible button by pressing CTRL and F8 (then choose "button). Name it FlashButton and do the Linkage in the Library. In Step 23, surely that's a misprint in the script - "fstartlse" should be "false" Incidentally, if you delete - on (release){ getURL(" http://www.flashvault.net/", "blank"); } - it will avoid their pop-up! Your name for your .fla file is on that web page but no link for download so I haven't seen that.
I'm a beginner too, but just an idea. Have you checked the button's linkage? Right click the button in the library, click on Linkage. Check "export for actionscript" and make sure "export in first frame is checked".
Thanks for the advice; Neither were checked. But it did not solve the problem. Any other ideas?
I got stuck on it too, Check out this tutorial for step 22 http://www.tutorialized.com/tutorial/Invisible-Flash-Button/22337 This is one way to make it... Thanks for pointing out the misprint, I was wondering about it originally but forgot about it. Web Link - It is there, but filefactory.com has a weird way of displaying the link to download it. Look for this half way down the page. Download for free with FileFactory Basic I think my problem is = not understanding exactly where to apply the actionscripts. Do all action go only on the action layer?
I downloaded your .fla file. Yes that "download for free" link got it there in the end! If you click on the InvisibleB1 layer and open the actions frame. Click on the blue tick (check syntax) . It will come up with 3 errors. **Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=InvisibleB1, frame=1:Line 1: Mouse events are permitted only for button instances on (rollOver) { **Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=InvisibleB1, frame=1:Line 5: Mouse events are permitted only for button instances on (rollOut) { **Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=InvisibleB1, frame=1:Line 9: Mouse events are permitted only for button instances on (release){ Total ActionScript Errors: 3 Reported Errors: 3 I think that would imply your buttons need Instance names for the script to relate to. I suppose the actions can go on any layer but usually put on an "Actions" layer for convenience. On their file, the BlueFlashButton.fla there is only some script on the Action layer (but not on Invisible Button layer) and I can't find the rest of it! I'll have to check it later when I get more time. In the UK here and getting late.
