I hate you, you don’t want to know how many times I been trying this tutorial to make my web page and didnt worked but now it does thanks for the hard tutorial
@Photorexit did u sort that problem i think its the same as my problem
function navOverF(Event:MouseEvent):void{
Event.target.filters = [navbtnglow];
navbarmc.setChildIndex(event.target as MovieClip, 1);
dropmenu_mc.gotoAndStop(navbarmc.getChildAt(1).name);
trace(“We are rolled Over….” + navbarmc.getChildAt(1).name);
}
Can some1 please help me can u spot the error hear
Thank you very much!
Worked great for me. Very helpful tutorial.
thanks for the tutorial but your voice is fucking obnoxious.
I keep getting a compiler error 1120: Access of undefined property Moiveclip.
navBar_mc.setChildIndex(event.target as Moiveclip, 1);
any suggestions….?
The glow effect works, but the drop down menu just flashes.
@NxP100 Did you manage to make this work?? I’m stuck with the same problem. I tried to name my other pages the same as the menu button’s instance names. And made the gotoandStop link with a getchildindex function. That does work, however the buttons that are clicked won’t go away anymore… Please tell me how you managed to do this..
Yeah dude worked gr8 for me too. Just dat need to be careful abt da case sensitive part during da programming!!
I tried it and it works for 300%;)
And i want to say THANK YOU, for all your tutorials, i really learnt so much with you
Thank you!!
I’ve followed the tutorial more than 3 times in cs4 but each time I’m getting the same error: TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter child mag niet null zijn.
at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/setChildIndex()
at navBar2_fla::MainTimeline/navOverF()
Can anybody help me!?
The dropdown menu is not coming down when I get my mouse over the button
I know this has been asked, but I can’t see a response. I’ve followed this video and got everything to work. YAY (Double YAY concidering this is my first ever flash attempt)
Now, I can’t seem to figure out how to add another drop down menu for the other movie clips/buttons (Contact, About Us, Media). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I followed this step by step but I’m getting 1120 errors at my AS layer, frame 1 and lines 6,7, and 12. It’s saying Access of undefined property event. It’s highlighting my event.target.filter lines. I’ve done everything the same so I’m not sure what’s going on. Can someone give me a hand?
