Is there anyway to bypass a preloader if the entire file is already loaded, e.g. missing the intro? I have tried using the ShardObject code quite unsucsessfully, the code I used was:
//stop before running into the next scene
stop();
//check if there is already the SharedObject

I've created a preloader using the following script:
mySWF.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressE vent.PROGRESS, loop);
mySWF.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COM PLETE, done);
Works, but even if the content has been previously downloaded there is still a quick flicker of frame1 of the preloader...is there a way to avoid this (in AS2 you could check, if loaded)? Is there a way to arrange...maybe using an if statement...to avoid the flicker? Basically if the file is available locally bypass frame1 of the preloader and go to frame2?
I'm playing an flv file inside flash player (swf). I want to open a pop-up window if user clicks the movie. I'm calling a js window.open function from the flash file (by onRelease event), but the bloody IE pop-up blocker blocks my pop-up. What can I do in order to pass this pop-up blocker?
View 3 RepliesIs there any way to bypass the ugly Flash popup notice asking to allow mic or video access? We do not want to NOT ask for permission, but rather have our own visual design asking to allow access.
View 1 RepliesWhat my swf (on mysite1.com) need to do, is that POSTing some php values from mysite1.com (paid hosting) to a file on mysite2.com (free hosting) and get the 100% of the html response. I've started this project in AS2 but I couldn't find a function that get the source of a website, so I recreate the project in AS3 with URLRequest and URLLoader. Everything went fine, I've finished the project, uploaded the file, and there comes the cross domain problem. I can't upload/modify any file on mysite2.com because I can only add pages/posts (like a blog). I've read at least 20 forums about this, but can't find the solution.
I know (from the manual) that in later versions of flash and/or AS, the swf file asked the user for permission (like now for the webcam). Is there a way to do this in as3 or any way to bypass the need of the crossdomain xml file? If no, what is that older flash version that can do this permission request or that don't need that xml, (but still can post to php files and get the whole response).
I'm really upset, because I worked a lot of hour on this, and I was so happy that I could finish it, but I didn't know that there is such a big difference in security between local and online swf files.
How can I disable crossdomain.xml check when the executing swf has been loaded on localhost?
Error #2044: Unhandled SecurityErrorEvent:. text=Error #2048: Security sandbox violation: http://localhost:2541/xxx.swf cannot load data from http://www.com/xxx.swf.
I want to assign full trust to the HTML5 web application running locally. I want to disable any crossdomain checks.
Some external servers do not provide crossdomain.xml for their hosted SWF files.
I am running locally. I want to have full trust for debugging purposes.
How do I do that?
I will not consider AIR as it cannot be used from HTML5 application.
Adding the url "http://localhost:2541/xxx.swf" to "C:UsersArvoAppDataRoamingMacromediaFlash Player#SecurityFlashPlayerTrustu.cfg" did not help.

What my swf (on [URL]) need to do, is that POSTing some php values from [URL] (paid hosting) to a file on [URL] (free hosting) and get the 100% of the html response.

The other problem is that I cant use a php file on [URL] like a proxy between the sites, because this thing I want to access on mysite2 is IP address dependent, so each different user of the flash file has to be "tracked" different. (like a visitor counter - if each user of the swf access mysite2 through a php on th first site, they are tracked as 1 user (because they are tracked with mysite1 IP address))

I have two Preloader problems for a project I'm working on right now.
1. The Main Site preloader disappears when 60% is loaded...with a blank screen lag until moving to the main screen
2. My external .swf Preloader is still on screen after an external .swf has loaded. I can hear the external .swf playing while watching my loader bar at about 20-40%.
Main Site Preloader:
var yChange = 109.2;var yStart = 330.2;
myInterval = setInterval(preload,100);[code].......
getting progress bars to work in on an SWF that is coded to load into your main SWF movie that sits on the web?

So I have a movieclip in my flash that has an event listener that calls it to pull up when the mouse is over and go down when the mouse is out. Kinda like a menu.

View 3 RepliesI have my main movie, and from there an external movie is loaded which has a scrollpane on it.

I have a button on a swf that works fine (click it and it launches a html page) on its own when rendered as a swf - the code forwards to a new page on a html site.[code]but I have used a separate preloader to help load in the graphic, the trouble is this does not seem to pass on the above code, yet the rollover code (that makes the mc resize a little) that is a layer or 2 into the bttn works fine in the original swf and the preloader.[code]
I wonder if anyone could advise me as to how, in as3, I can regain the click functionality back so the swf works after being preloaded.Also, is there a quick way to get the 'finger' pointer instead of the 'arrow' one if I so wished?.

It is "kinda" working, however, when the loader is reaching 100% it is loading the page but immediately it is making a "white flash" and it stays on the white.I am attaching the files I have already done, could someone look them through and see what is up? Um let there be said that the laoder.swf is where the prelaoder is in. The default_second.swf is the site the preloader is loading.

View 3 RepliesWe're producing a desktop application that includes html and swf in AS3. We get the following error: Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation. The following local application on your computer or network: C:UsersDave%20ZelenkaDesktopworld-source...world.swf is trying to communicate with this Internet-enabled location: C:UsersDave ZelenkaDesktopworld-sourcesample-htmlsample.html To let this application communicate with the Internet, click Settings. You must restart the applcation after changing your settings.
So, I know how to resolve this by clicking the settings. But our users won't want to do that. What doesn't make sense is that the swf file isn't pulling anything from the Internet. The world.swf file shouldn't be communicating with sample.html, and not only that, they are located in the same folder.

I have a flex app hosted on a windows server running IIS. That same server has some rest services that the app interacts with. The rest services have windows authentication so that their urls cannot be called without credentials. The flex app needs to be accessible to the public so its files are accessed by enabling anonymous access. The problem is of course that when the app tries to call the rest services the browser pops a dialog box asking for windows username and pass. I naively hoped that if I set the anonymous access on the flex site to use the credentials of a windows account that had permission to view the rest services that would resolve the matter. I hoped that IIS would see the browser used the proper creds to view the flex app and use those same creds to get the rest services. Wrong, that didn't work.
So is what I want impossible? I'd like to find a way to not force the user to enter windows creds, keep the rest services using windows authentication, and have the flex app able to access the rest urls. Any ideas? Am I missing something? Also, it may turn out that the flex app is running on http and the rest services must be called with https. Does that change your answer?
I'm busy with making a XML banner in AS3. It worked so far with the following code:
Code:
Select allvar xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xmlData:XML = new XML();
xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, LoadXML);
xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest("private"));
function LoadXML(e:Event):void {
[Code] .....
And it worked! It bypassed all the browsers popup blockers, but it brought in some new problems. Every time the .swf loops. The addeventlistener adds a listener. So if the .swf loops 5 times it will open 5 windows when I will click it. I've tried to use removeeventlistener but with no success so far. In the code without the popup bypass this problem didn't occurred. Probably due the new URLRequest. But I don't know how to use this in the javascript. The other problem is the string of the link. For some reason javascript deletes parts of the link when there is an question mark in it. Example:
If the link is [URL]
The link what will open is: [URL]
