ActionScript 2.0 :: Creating A FileBrowser Like Explorer?
Jan 10, 2006
Is it possible to create a FileBrowser?? I know a fair bit of Flash, enough in fact to create a working menu system (ie Listview), but I was just wondering if there was some way to find and study files in a selected folder. Is it possible to obtain information like "Filename", "FileSize", "FileType" without actually loading files into Flash??
I'm pretty sure there is no actionscript for this, but is there maybe PHP or JAVA or something else?? I have very little knowledge in those other areas so I would not know.
My prefered Flash version would be MX 2004, but I do have access to Flash 8.
I made a full homepage which is working perfect in flash cs3, using as3, i upload it, and start navigating on the homepage, it still worked perfect, but the moment i wanted to go back to the previous page with the arrows in the top left corner of either explorer or firefox it jumped all the way back to my google startpage, what can be done about this, so visitors doesn´t have to log on to the homepage every time the click the arrows in explorer or firefox?In another forum someone recomended me to split up the pages and upload them seperately which i did but, the problem is that even though i organize my subdomains it doesn´t work it says that the link is broken.The link to the homepage is URL...Click on the spanish flag and you will see what i meen by not bieng able to use to arrows, and if you click on the brittish flag you will see what i meen but the link is broken, on which i used the actionscript 3 and the following text:[code]
My site is in the final stages of development. Using Internet Explorer, see the embedded Youtube movies located at the right side of this page: [URL]. Why youtube embeds don't show in IE 8?
I designed a flash site with Flash CS4 and Actionscript 3.0.
I am using this simple preloader, basically I learned from a tutorial:
stop(); //PreloaderloaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, updatePreloader); function updatePreloader(evtObj:ProgressEvent):void{//container for the progress of the site (download)var percent:Number = Math.floor((evtObj.bytesLoaded*100)/evtObj.bytesTotal);preloader_txt.text = percent+"%";if (percent==100){ nextFrame(); }}
make it refresh properly in explorer 8, as it works well once, but if you refresh, it stops working, and stays on 0%.
Test FrameRate in combination of browsers,flash plugin versions on Win32
Expect:
Framerate to be close in most cases
Observed:
I am seeing a 25% decrease in framerate under IE7 using Flash10b.ocx(10.0.22) and 50% decrease in framerate using Flash10c.ocx(10.0.32). PLugins under FireFox, Safari and in Mac OSX don't exhibit the same slowdown.
I would like to get help/confirmation on a performance problem that I see in Internet Explorer. The Adobe and Flash community is great on the Internet but I have been surprised to see no information on this, just a few reports about movie playback on 10.0.32 vs. 10.0.22.
My guess is that in IE flash plugin is passing draw calls to Win32 and that this is slow.
Instead of drawing each time on the bitmap using draw, cache the draw calls to a bitmap and use CopyPixels. When I do this the performance is the same across browsers, within 10%.
I have a website with a Flash banner. This has worked fine in all major browsers (IE7/8,Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera) for some time, but when I upgraded to IE9, the banner is displayed with a 1 pixel shim on the right-hand edge, which is throwing the layout off.know past versions of IE would display line breaks as white space and I wonder if that's what's going on here. I'm using the AC_FL_RunContent() function to display the Flash file.I'm not sure where to look to debug this, but I'd like to fix it sooner rather than later
I'm trying to use the Facebook Actionscript graph api but I seem to be having problems in IE (other browsers like chrome and firefox seem okay so far).
From what i can tell, it's logging in fine and returning the user id but when i do a lookup on that user with Facebook.api(_user, handleUserRequest); I get an error.
Is there any known problems with the Facebook Actionscript graph api that affects IE only?
i am accessing flash content in IE.I am getting this error all the time.Error - Alternate HTML content should be placed here. This content requires the Adobe Flash Player. Get Flash
If you'll visit the site lab.buffspec.com SPECIFICALLY using Internet Explorer 9 and select a gildan 6.1, a hanes 6.1 or a gildan hood and then click on the get pricing button you will see that despite updating the quantity the total price isn't shown. This happens in Internet Explorer 9 only for these 3 shirts, the others work fine. And this behavior occurs only in IE9, the site works fine in firefox and chrome. When I select Developer tools in IE9 and go the network tab and start capturing, I find that the request shows '(Aborted)' and the initiator tab shows '(Pending)'.
I have a flash doc. that loads fine on Firefox but I get the ActiveX warning in Explorer. I created in in Flash CS4 then placed it into Dreamweaver CS3, Here is part of the code:
I have a preloader with the following code stop(); this.loaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PRO GRESS, onProgress); this.loaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete); function onProgress(erogressEvent):void { var loaded:Number = e.target.bytesLoaded; [Code] ..... It works great with Firefox and Safari on a mac but when viewing in internet explorer on a pc, the loader does not work at all.
i'm developing aplication in which there is one section for games....bt in games which i have put there,this games open internet explorer when user clicks on buttons in games. also there is restriction that i can not modify the buttons in game ..I dnt want this games to open web browser whn button isclicked..
The attached AS3 file is a simplified implementation of the Karplus-Strong plucked string algorithm, and demonstrates the use of the SampleDataEvent.SAMPLE_DATA event to synthesize audio on the fly. This will run all day long in Mozilla Firefox (Windows) or Safari (Mac). It crashes in IE6 and IE7 on Windows XP/Vista (you may have to give it some time, it probably won't crash immediately).
I'll try my best to articulate the problem here. I have a client who is using IE6 on a hand-held device. They need an AS2 scripted file for Flash Player 7. I have the following script that serves as a welcome screen. It plays the welcome movie, then pauses for 4 seconds, then proceeds to the "intro" frame to begin the next movie.[code]...
It works fine on every browser I've used in-house. For some reason, however, the client says it gets hung up and won't proceed to the "intro" frame to play the next movie. I've tried eliminating the initial stop(); script, but then it doesn't play the movie at all and just goes to the next frame.
I have been asked to get a website up and running. It is a Flash site, which works fine in Firefox and Safari, but its just a white screen in IE. Does anyone know why?the website isand the scrip is : -
<head> <script> if ((navigator.userAgent.indexOf('iPhone') != -1) ||
i have a site developed in AS3 www.macweb.com.br and the link Portfolio load data from a XML file.
Some people that uses Windows XP 64 Bit with Internet Explorer 8 and Flash Player 10.0.45.2 (and others IE with Flash Player version as mentioned) are reporting that the Portfolio Icons and informations are not show.
I have tested this behave with my browsers IE 8 (on Win XP 32), Chrome, FireFox, Safari and Opera and the problem dont occur to me, so i need some light to look for the problem, if it is in my Flash file.
I got this website at work which I've just updated.It was working pretty well, yesterday I showed it to a friend.And it was working perfectly. This morning, I hear sound but all i get is a black screen.It works on every other browser (chrome, firefox, SeaMonkey, etc.) but in Internet Explorer, black screened.If anyone can,I need a quick solution, my bosses are freaking out and that is kindda out of my league as for "trouble shoot".Why something that was working not even 12 hours go goes awry on me today?
[url]...Two flash files on the extreme right side, that is above the text THE SPORTS CLINIC and CENTRE FOR JOINT REPLACEMENTS runs fine with almost all browsers, except for internet explorer. I have tried everything, but it simply doesn't run over internet explorer.
I am learning to code in flash by making simple virtual paper doll games. My most recent works fine in Safari and Chrome, but in IE gets the dreaded "a script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash to run slowly" and either refuses to load or plays everything immobile and blinking.
The game can be seen (or not seen, depending on browser) here: [URL]
It seems to load until around the 20% mark and then freeze. The game also works fine when directly in my computer instead of on the web.
as you all know that if we use flash object in web page in internet explorer Internet Explorer displays a box around Flash content and show a tooltip telling the user to click to activate the content. i am using fixit it work fine but problem is once page loaded completely.
I've been spending hours now reading up on IE7's issue with rendering Flash content on top of other elements, particularly navigation menus (this is often a problem with dropdown menus and Flash ad banners, for example).
Update
At Mercator's request, I am providing a large code-sample to assist in any advice you might have. Consider the HTML below:
[code]...
The footpanel uses jQuery-powered flyout menus, if that provides any further context. These menus have z-indexes in the 300X range to appear above the footpanel.The Flash in question is JW player playing a flash video or mp4. Currently, the object and embed tags are inside a container div.My understanding of previous solutions was that the combination of the param changes and the positioning/z-index change on the container div should have resolved the issue. Alas, it is not so. The player resides on top of the footpanel.Other information that may or may not be helpful is that the page is XHTML 1.0 Transitional and that Dreamweaver reports 1 error in the HTML code: <embed> is not in the XHTML 1.0 specification. This fact does not prevent the video from being viewed in any browser tested, and the page still displays correctly in FF.
I have made a simple embed of slideshare on my site. However, on Internet Explorer, it keeps saying "Loading" and nothing appears. However, in Firefox its almost instant. Please try here using internet explorer. Or is it just me? It makes use of Flash and Javascript.
