How to jump to anchor in HTML

[tstefan]

This is a problem:

I want to have a flash movie on my web page, it will have some buttons with animations.
Is there posiblle to jump somewhere in the same web page (anchor) if I press button in flash.
How can I make button like that.
:( :(

Same way you would in HTML. Just put the code within a getURL tag.

Thanks but I havent done that in HTML yet so please would you explane it to me.

First create your anchor in the HTML page where you want to jump to.

<A NAME="jumpHere"></A>

Now use a URL to jump to that area....

on (release){
getURL("#jumpHere");
}

Untested of course, but I don't see why it wouldn't work, a getURL serves just as well as the A tag in HTML.

I will try it, thanks.

No problem :)

It doesn't work, it just reloads the page .
Try ti.

I think you have to use the full url...

in other words:

http://www.yoursite.com/yourfile.htm/#jumphere

I think...

That might be it, but Rev, when you do that, there is no slash before the # so it would be

http://www.yoursite.com/yourfile.htm#jumphere

Yes now it works but not in the way I need.
When I klick on the published movie it opens the html page and jumps on the anchor.
But if I open the page in which I have embeded the swf it only reloads the same page and dont jump to anchor, puf pant.

getURL("javascript:location.href=location.pathname + \"#top\";void(0);");



top, or whatever your anchor name is

[zammzamm]

getURL("javascript:location.href=location.pathname + \"#top\";void(0);");



top, or whatever your anchor name is


Hey, that works great but it only work one time when you try to click the anchor button several times it opens up a new window. Any suggestions?
