Guest scopes Posted May 7, 2010 Report Share Posted May 7, 2010 Hey everyone, I am just beginning to learn the basics of creating web sites in flash. I have been following a tutorial and have it done pretty well, but they only cover one main button, and I am at the point where I need several more, but I am doing something wrong. What I want to do specifically is to add probably 4 other main buttons that can also have drop down menus. Please be as specific as possible because the extent of my code knowledge isn't very far. I attatched the .fla Thanks in advance The code for the main page is as follows: menu = ["About", "Bio", "Contact"]; this.createEmptyMovieClip("content", 1000); this.attachMovie("sectionBackground","mask",1001); mask._y = content._y=208; mask._x = target=68; content.setMask(mask); content._x = -1000; imageScrollSpeed = 5; xStart = 125; yStart = 51; bWidth = 79; bHeight = 17; interval = 50; countDown = menu.length; menuOpen = false; theTime = 0; buttonScrollSpeed = 2; for (var i = 0; i<menu.length; i++) { var section = content.attachMovie("section_"+menu, "section_"+menu, i+100); section._x = section._width*i; var b = this.attachMovie("subButton", "subButton"+i, countDown); countDown--; b.stop(); b._x = xStart; b._y = ySwtart; b.interval = interval*i; b.target = yStart+(bHeight*i); b.txt = menu; b.pos = target+(i*-section._width); b.onPress = function() { target = this.pos; closeMenu(); this.gotoAndStop(1); }; b.onRollOver = function() { this.gotoAndStop(2); }; b.onRollOut = function() { this.gotoAndStop(1); }; b._visible = false; } function closeMenu() { for (var i = 0; i<menu.length; i++) { var b = this["subButton"+i]; b._visible = false; b._x = xStart; b._y = yStart; } menuOpen = false; } mainButton.onPress = function() { if (!menuOpen) { theTime = getTimer(); menuOpen = true; for (var i = 0; i<menu.length; i++) { _root.main["subButton"+i]._visible = true; } } else { closeMenu(); } }; mainButtoncopy.onPress = function() { if (!menuOpen) { theTime = getTimer(); menuOpen = true; for (var i = 0; i<menu.length; i++) { _root.main["subButton"+i]._visible = true; } } else { closeMenu(); } }; function scrollButtons() { if (menuOpen) { for (var i = 0; i<menu.length; i++) { var b = this["subButton"+i]; if ((theTime+b.interval)<getTimer()) { b._y += (b.target-b._y)/buttonScrollSpeed; } } } } this.onEnterFrame = function() { content._x += (target-content._x)/imageScrollSpeed; scrollButtons(); }; FLA.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
