Re: FLASH: password protection?

[Andrew Le Sage]

If you mean a password for visitors to the web site, the text box in Flash five and Flash 4 have a password option so the a star appears in the box when the user types input. However you have to code the text box. The script is attached to the OK button that you will put next to the input box. You name the box, the name is the variable. You then make some code that has an if statement. 

If (your box name) = (Your password)

gotoandplay whatever frame you like


you might want to add a else to display a message telling the user that have to put in the right password. 


I do not think you can password an FLA file without another program so that no one can open your work. If you are worried about that why don't you password the whole system.

  Subject: FLASH: password protection?



  Hello there,


  Can someone tell me how or if one can make a flash "app" that requires a

  unique password to be assigned by the designer/developer? I am referring

  to password protecting it just like any other s/w app. Or is this some

  kind of large expensive proposition that I am talking about?


  Thanks,

  Jorge
