Hello all, I know this is really basic, but I wanted to know something about
timeline code. Everything I have read about placing your code says you
should place it in a central location, so I set my code in the timeline
first frame, actions layer - as recommended. However, I am finding that
sometimes buttons do not react unless the onRelease event handler is in the
same frame as where the movie stops. Is this correct? Do actions have to be
in same frame as where the movie stops and you want the interactivity?
Though I wanted to get the answer to this general question, what I have
specifically is a movieclip with buttons inside of it. I have tried putting
the code for these buttons in the first frame of the main timeline or in the
last frame of the main timeline, where this movieclip is instantiated. But
neither method works.
I use something like this: clip_mc.btn1_btn.onRelease =
function(){getURL(etcetcetc.);};
Where should one place this code? Are actions present in the first frame of
the main timeline applicable to all subsequent frames, unless overwritten?
In case you wish to know, the buttons and movieclips do have instance names.
Thanks in advance.
