hide div once finished 1

[TheCandyman]

I'm trying to hide a div that contains a flash into so once it plays it completely closes. Currently it plays but the menu behind it are unusable so i need to completely hide it. Once i get it working I'll make the flash so it only plays once per visit. Any ideas?

Yes - using Flash, you can run JS on the page, so you could write a function on the page to hide the DIV, and then call that from Flash.

There are probably many ways of calling JS from Flash, but I normally use the JS/Flash kit. I'd ask in the Flash forum for more on how to call JS.

Hope this helps,

FYI to anyone who may come later looking for an answer to this:


On the last frame of your Flash video use:

onFrame (131) {
    getURL("javascript:HideDiv();");
}

In Header of the HTML page:

<script type="text/javascript">
	function HideDiv()
		{
			document.getElementById("Flash").style.display='none';
		}
</script>

In the body of the HTML page:

<div id="Flash"> 
            ........
            ........	
</div>
