Is there an AS file sniffer function in AS? PHP has two or more and so do most other languages (example is isfile(), exists() etc)...) but i can't seem to find one that works in flash.
View 2 RepliesI am searching an addin for firefox or any other software to sniff trafic between flash application and server side.
View 2 RepliesThe first one (FLEX application) sends a message on a dedicated LocalConnection to a second one (Flash application). The Flash then answers by sending a message on another dedicated LocalConnection. This message is not directly received by the FLEX and the delay is at least 30s, up to 1 or 2 minutes! It seems the issue only occurs with Flash Player >= 10 and it never occurs with Chrome.
I didn't find anything on the web concerning a similar issue nor something in Flash Player release notes. Did someone already have this kind of problem?
By the way, is there any tool that can be used to sniffer LocalConnection communications?
Additional information:
swf are located in different frames swf are embed with swfobject I tried to delay the Flash sending, I tried to create another LocalConnection dedicated to this call but I always had same result: for all calls, the FLEX method is called after the same delay. I also put a timer in FLEX to periodically log to see if there is no background process delaying the method processing but everything seems fine
There is a flash logo in the upper left corner, and a Flash video beneath the header. If the viewer's browser does not have the flashplayer, static images are shown. I got this to work in IE8, but my client has IE9 and says that the flash logo and video are not there and neither are the static images.
View 3 RepliesI am trying to send a function to my SWF file via a HTML file, and every browser works fine except for Internet Explorer.The test file is supposed to animate the graph when you mouse over the word click, and come to a halt upon mousing off of it.Here is the example URL:[URL]
*** begin ***
<script type="text/javascript"> function sendToActionScript(str) { document["accelachart"].sendToActionScript(str); }</script>
<a href = "#" onmouseover="sendToActionScript('fast')" onmouseout="sendToActionScript('slow')">click</a>

Like I said before, it works on all browsers I tested (Chrome, FireFox, Safari) except for IE (7 or 8).
I'm having issues having a swf file with a sliding navigation controlled by as2 be functional when its housed within a lookbook/sliding slideshow employing as2 that's referencing the sliding navigation swf file. the swf file with the sliding navigation functions on its own perfectly, but when it's called within the lookbook file, only the arrow/graphic controlling the navigation/movement works. the image the navigation moves doesn't function when its housed within the lookbook swf file. Both files reference the same AS folder containing a greensock folder for tweening etc.
AS2 for lookbook functionality:
function hideIt(what){what._visible = false;}function showSlide(direction){if (direction == "next") {++position;}if (direction == "prev") {--position;}if (position == _root.totalSlides) {arrowNext.enabled = false;gs.TweenLite.to(arrowNext, 0.35, {_alpha: 0});gs.TweenLite.to(arrowNext.top, 0.35, {tint: arrowOffColor});}else if (position != 0) {arrowNext.enabled =

I'm new to AS3, I have an index.swf that loads thumbnail images from this file (projects_list.xml). When the user clicks on a thumbnail image I want it to pass the selected thumbnails "link" node information to the callFull function. You can see that I have managed to get it to work when I use the real path name. I just can't figure out how to pass the link node text.
Projects_list.xml file set up
Code:
<project id="0" name="Con" thumb="portfolio/images/con/thumbs/web_1_200pix.jpg" htm="" link="portfolio/xml/desc/desc_con.xml"></project>

View 2 RepliesI am relatively new to Flex/ActionScript, but I have been using a pattern of creating one file per function in my util package - with the name of the file being the same as the name of the function.
Like if the file was convertTime.as:
package util{
public function convertTime(s:String):Date{
...
}}
This way I can import the function readily by doing:
import util.convertTime;
...
convertTime(...);
I like this way better than importing a class object and then calling the static methods hanging off of it, like this:
import util.Util;
...
Util.convertTime(...);
But, the more I do this, the more files I'll end up with, and it also seems a bit wasteful/silly to put only one function into a file, especially when the function is small. Is there another alternative to this? Or are these two options the only ones I have?

I have a simple f4V file that I am playing through the FLVPlayback component. It is working great. I even have a cue point in there, and it is firing off what it is supposed to do.
However, what I am curious about is if there is a way to detect when the file is done playing in order to fire off a function?
I suppose I could do it with a cue point, but I am going to need to do this a lot, and don't want to have to place cue points in all my videos.
I have found a lot of conflicting info on this subject, and am not sure how to do it, but it doesn't seem like it should be too hard.
my xml file is as such:
Code:
<menu txt="THIS ITEM FIRES A FUNCTION IN FLASH" txtcolor="0xFFFFFF" menuaction="myFUNCTION" />
myFUNCTION is a function inside of flash, how can i possibly trigger this?
i did some searches but i can't find the sollution:
i read upon asfunction:myFUNCTION, but it simply doesn't work
this is my relevant flash code
Code:
myFUNCTION = function()
{
trace ("am i called?");

So, my situation is like this: I have an XML file. I load the file to flash and display data. But this XML file can be changed by some other system, updates data,.. Now, i want to update my data in flash also. What i have done is use timer and check XML file every... let's say second. And i don't wanna do that...
I just want to know what the data in XML file changed and update at that time, otherwise do nothing.
So, i was wondering if that is possible. Is it possible for AS3 to get an event or something, when XML file changes.
I know i could do that with FMS or Red5 and shared objects... but let's say that that is not the best option in our case.
So, can I listen to changes in XML file??
I like to call a function that is outside of the class file.

I have 1 .fla and 2 .as files. The first .as file is called documentClass and is the document class for the .fla. The second .as file is called tracePrac contains a function that traces a varible in tracePrac.as. I want to know how i call for this function in my documentClass.as code?
Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;

I have an AS3 code (home_esp.as) that imports the class of another one (InternalCarousel.as):
import InternalCarousel;
and uses it as its:
var carrusel:InternalCarousel = new InternalCarousel();
carrusel.y = -900;
carrusel.x = -200;
carrusel.scaleX = 1.4;
carrusel.scaleY = 4;
addChild (carrusel);
I need that the buttons of the imported file triggers a function that appears on the origin file, I tried with:
home_esp.pantAparece();
parent.pantAparece();
root.pantAparece();
But nothing seems to work. Which is the correct code that I have to use to make it work?
im trying to load some HTTP URL from a xml file into a actionscript function..Its xml gallery i was successfull in loading the pics the description but im stuck at the url....The XML file is structured this way....

I need to place the on and offline links into a onclick button fuction in flash.so i imported the xml data it works fine for the title so i used the same code for the url
here it is...
allOnlinelink.push(element .@onlinelink); allOfflinelink.push(element .@offlinelink);
the next function pulls the url of the current index
var currentWeb:String = allOnlinelink[currentIndex]; var currentCD:String = allOfflinelink[currentIndex];

I'm working on a function that checks for 2 things to pull up the correct .swf file. I have to check for 2 things
·_global.theYear
·_global.theDate
Is there a different way I could write this function to say something like:
checkAll(_global.theYear, _global.theDate) = function(){
loadMovie(_global.theYear,_global.theDate".swf", 1);
}
So when a button is pressed, it runs the function above and fills in the variable. Names in the .swf name, does that make any sense, am I on the right track? Because all the .swf file names are all consistent such as 2009_18.swf, 2007_5.swf., etc. The only problem I see is there are 2 sets of buttons, one when you press it sets the _global.theYear variable and the other sets the _global.theDate variable.
So would one button look like this:
mybtn.onPress=function(){
checkAll(2008,_global.theDate);
}
And the _global.theDate would be set with what the current var is set at as?
