How to animate canvas Link to open in the same browser window?

I have created a Web film animate CC and want to click on it to post a link to a URL.  However, I want the URL linked to open in the same browser window - not a new browser window.  I used the code snippet of the canvas in order to link the URL, but it seems to work for opening in a new browser window.  How can I change the code so that the link opens in the same browser window?

Please notify.

Thank you.

_Self to use instead of _blank as target.

  • Hyperlinks open in the same browser window

    Hey Gang!

    How do I create a hyperlink so that it opens in the same browser window and don't keep open a new window each time?

    See you soon!

    Hello

    It's kinda a 'hack', but you can use a Flash movie embedded to have more control over the process of any hyperlink. Basically, you simulate the hyperlink to a button in Flash, but instead of looking like a navigation button, you use the text of your hyperlink. This has the added benefit that you can make the text respond to mouse rollovers and clicks with a color change, something will links in PowerPoint.

    So, assuming you named the instance of your 'button' as myLink_btn, you add some actionscript to the main timeline:

    myLink_btn.onRelease = function () {}
    getURL (" http://my.url.com/index/index.htm","_self");
    }

    You compile your little Flash movie and just embed in your Powerpoint where you want. The student will never see the difference. We use this solution to provide the student a "Printable" presentation version - until we compile the PowerPoint with presenter, allows us to make a pdf Acrobat version and upload it to the Breeze server. On the first page of the presentation is a based on flash "link" to the pdf document, and the student assumes only Breeze is 'print' a copy of the presentation.

    More on getURL: you can have load a window named by replacing '_self' by the name of the window or a new window with "_blank". The getURL command also allows to send javascript commands in the browser that is running the Breeze presentation. If you need to use relative links (if you go to the construction of a stand-alone application on a CD, for example, and you want to link to the pdf documents in a subdirectory), this is the best way to do it, as the presenter did a bad job of conversion of links in PowerPoint. And, as I said, you can have the links "light up" when the mouse user above them, something that connects in PowerPoint will not be.

    But... to say that you have 30 pdf documents on your Breeze server, and you want to make a navigation to a simple page for them. If you are not concerned about LMS data capture, it's MUCH easier to simply create the interface all in a single Flash document and send the student to one - just put all the pdf documents in a folder on the server of the game is to "allow public consultation", and they don't don't even need to log the server to read. :) It is an excellent solution if your company is like mine, where some people have created their own little fiefdom controlling the real web server, and you use Breeze to accommodate all kinds of resources that would normally be available on your intranet. If you say that you want to host a resource on the 'web', you will need to go through them (and what a pleasure a process i.e. - they insist on building everything themselves to justify their budget)... but if its on 'training Breeze sever', they don't care.

    Laughing out loud.

  • Open in the same browser window

    I made a flash element for my dreamweaver website. I have an invisible button on top so when you click on it, it opens a new page. I'm trying to make sure when you open it, it opens in the same browser window. I tried to make the target itself and it did not work. Any ideas?

  • How to force links to open in a new browser window/tab?

    I'm repeating this question here since I'm jamming and hope that a broader approach will help with an answer as soon as possible.

    I created an interactive PDF with internal and external links (URL). When the PDF file is downloaded and seen leaving in a browser, any external link opens in the same window. It is boring and forces a lot of button rear-ing. Is it possible to add an action or a script to force the document to open external links to URLS in a new window or tab?

    Thank you!

    Tim

    Hi pliers,

    I think that the steps outlined in this forum thread can do the trick for you: new window browser for hyperlinks on PDF created in In Design

    While the question was asked about InDesign, the steps that are listed in the lower part are are in Acrobat.

    Please let know how it goes.

  • Link to open in the same tab

    Hello everyone, and Merry Christmas!

    OK, so I have a Flash file in my Web site that contains a link to another page on the site. However for now, when I click it, the new link opens in a new tab, rather than on the same tab I want to happen.

    I did a "test page" with just the Flash file, I'm talking about so that you can see the code here:

    http://amycarrier.co.UK/OtherPages/test.html

    As you can see, this is the "enter" button which opens a new link in a new tab. Are there changes I could make to the code and/or new settings I could put in place so that the link opens in the same tab?

    Thank you very much!

    If you cannot change the swf file, you cannot change how the swf file.  in particular, if clicking on a button in the file swf causes a web page open in a new tab, you cannot change to open in the same tab.

  • How to have opening the web page in the same browser window after redirect in placed in Dreamweaver Flash video?

    Hello

    Would appreciate if someone can help me.

    Web site: www.Paris-Pet.com

    A flash video plays on the index page. The next action is placed in the last frame of the video in Flash:

    navigateToURL (new URLRequest ("http://www.paris-pet.com/home.html"));


    It does not work as expected with one exception: instead of heading to the home page of the index page when the video is finished, it opens the home page in a second window, leaving empty flash movie browser window. Is not the seamless design, I hoped, and I have also been informed on some computers, blocking of pop-up windows up preventing them transition smoothly to the rest of the web site.

    I would like the redirection to open the home page in the same window of the browser as the film in the index page has played.

    Help, please. Print designer in over his head.

    JM

    "_self" specifies the current frame in the current window.
    "_blank" specifies a new window.
    "_parent" specifies the parent of the current image.
    "_top" specifies the top-level frame in the current window.

    navigateToURL (http://www.paris-pet.com/home.html, "_self");

    FYI... it's really a question of actionscript.  If you have more problems, you can ask in the flash forums (you'll more help there than here)

  • Help with a link to a web page in the same browser window

    I've just updated my Flash MX to CS5.5 and am completely perplexed at what seems to be the most basic of functions.

    I have a small Flash animation that is embedded on a site. At the end of the film, there is a call to action to click on another page on this site. However, it seems that the only action in the Code Snippets Panel is for an action that opens a new browser window. I miss the Panel basic actions! Am I missing something here? How do I have to? I tried to change '_self' instead of '_blank' code but it does not work

    Here is the code:

    button_5.addEventListener (MouseEvent.Click, fl_ClickToGoToWebPage_9);

    function fl_ClickToGoToWebPage_9(event:MouseEvent):void

    {

    navigateToURL (new URLRequest ("purchase.html"), "_blank");

    }

    Change it to test on a server and _self.

  • How many pods and layouts have open at the same time?

    Hello

    I plan on using Acrobat Connect Pro for virtual brainstorming session...

    I'll take a set of slides with about 60 slides and chop into 8 sections, about 7-8 slides in each, which will be in a new layout. Approximately 10 layouts page altogether.

    To delay the loading time when moving from one layout to another, I want to know if I can keep all 8 pods of open content in each layout, so that when I pass, it simply brings the pod that is already loaded, instead of closing the previous and loading each of them when I change page layouts. That's what going on throughout the slow session by having all these contents on screen (hidden behind the active pod)? Or I'm at something here?

    Thanks for your comments.

    -Matt

    Matt,

    I think that you have determined that this provision only one can be active at a given time. Thus, on the issue of pods.

    I would do it exactly as you have described. The original provision can show longer load times, due to the amount of content that needs to be loaded, but alternate between layouts should be very fast, as all the content is already loaded on each individual computer, it's just a question of brining to the correct forward presentation. With 7-8 slides per presentation, I don't think I would worry a lot on first load either time.

    Of course, always do tests on multiple computers to get an idea of how things will be in the live session, but I'd run with the idea of 'hide' the pods keep minimized transition time.

  • Dynamic application of link all open at the same time?

    Do I need to have Adobe Premiere Pro open when you change a sequence usinf yet? that is, if I send a Premiere Pro sequence in still and then close first, can you continue to work in yet? Can I close and open the project again later? I tried the latter and got a "first draft" not found error, but was unsure if I change location etc...

    Exactly as Jim says.  I'll add some.

    I don't remember where that is described, but first is launched as pproheadlesssomethingorother in the background for each dynamic link (or each linked project or what?), so it runs in the background, even if you don't have it open.  It does not hurt to open the first.

    A project Encore CS5 complicated who was about 20 dynamic PR related sequences, almost all from different projects of PR, I got a PR project/sequence that would just not the right support - very long wait (which I waited more than once), then the problems.  It worked fine, until I opened the project before you open the project again.   This project consisted of 3 types of projects PR: new in CS5, CS3 opened in CS5 and CS4 opened in CS5.  (All sequences of Encore CS5 DL must be first CS5 projects.)

    I don't think that I had no problem with Encore CS5 that DL only projects with new first CS5 projects.
