SWFKit Animated Web Browser Problem

[Djbailey]

Hi I have just downloaded and started to use the SWFKit Pro demo and made myself a web browser as described on the main page. The problem I am having is I want an animation triggered when my homepage is reached in the browser.

The problem is I don't know how to change the url variable so that it will activate a gotoAndPlay command in the Flash movie.

Any and all ideas welcome.

To do that you must handle the NavigateComplete2 event of the web browser in ffish script:

var ax = createControl("Shell.Explorer.2", 0, 0, 200, 200);
var wb = ax.activex;

wb.NavigateComplete2 = function (control, url) {
Dialogs.msgBox(url);
FlashPlayer.targetGotoLabel("_root", "label");
}

wb.navigate2("http://www.swfkit.com");

Hi Thanks for the Code, I just can't seem to see how it fits in with the original browser code. If I put it in the //Initialize code it doesn't have any effect. When I put it in the go2url code it pops a little browser window with website in the top left corner of the browser. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

I figured a very low tech way of linking to an animation when a url is called.

in the go2url script

Code:
ie.window.left = pos.left + 1;
ie.window.top = pos.top -1;
ie.window.width = pos.right - pos.left -1;
ie.window.height = pos.bottom - pos.top -1;

var url = FlashPlayer.getVariable("iURL");
if ((url = null) (url == ""))
{

return;
}
ie.activex.Navigate2(url);


if (url == "desired url address"){
FlashPlayer.targetGotoLabel("_root", "label");
}

This will play whatever animation you have after the label. The problem I am facing now is having the url address update in the browser so it can identify when the condition of the url has been met.

Any Ideas will be gratefully appreciated.

Sorry to trouble you all again, but I can't figure out how to delete the web browser when I use a button to go to a new section within the flash movie.

I want to use a button that links to a full screen animation but the web browser is still present over the animation, no matter what layer I put the animation on.

Your help will be gratefully appreciated (again)

If you want to reuse the web browser later, you can just hide it by using the following code

ie.window.hide();

To show it again

 ie.window.show();

If you want to close it

ie.window.close();
