My website’s already finished by now, but I’m having a weird little problem…
I’ll post the flash file of how my scroller works because it’s not like the ones in the turtorials on this page.
…Oh well, I don’t know why the file is so big, so well, here’s the link: http://www.jgoerrissen.com/home.fla
Well now the problem is, the scroller works perfectly fine when I test the movie just like that, but when I open it within the main menu (you know, with _root.contents.loadMovie), it doesn’t work anymore. It simply doesn’t scroll.
And when rolling the mouse over the arrows i get this error:
Destination not found: Destination="/news" Base="_level0.contents"
I guess you are also loading and external text file and the text does appear. Yes? Than if it is not a mistake in the text file path…you must check if you have a script for the scrollbar into and MC.
If that is the case you must give an absolute path to all the elements of your scrolling bar because by loading the swf into a parent movie you have changed the relative path.
In other work you add the name of the MC container to the paths in your script
I hope this is some help.
no, i am not loading an external text fil, it’s all in the same file.
i thought of what you suggested, too, but it doesn’t seem to be the problem here… :S
Sorry… i cant open your link.
I have troubles with scroll bars too. Different from yours though. I think this issue drive people crazy but you never get any answers cause its an old boring question I fear…
