ActionScript 2.0 :: [Flash8] .send And GetURL Open Two Windows
Sep 20, 2007
I have a Flash form sending variables to an ASP script (bono.asp) in order to print a discount bonus. The bonus grafic is then shown in a new window for the user to print with his/her data on it. (name, address, etc). Well, the problem is that it not only opens a new window with the bonus (without the data ), it also opens the bonus in the current window (with the data), forcing the user to "go back" to the flash website and loading the entire animation again. This is the code in the Flash form asociated to the Button:

I've messed around with XML+FLASH menu systems (downloaded from various Flash resource sites) on a novice level . As in, I know how to modify the XML file to have the content I want and where to rename the XML file in the FLA if need be. But I've never had to actually manually modify any functions within the FLA before. I'm really green when it comes down to diggin' within the Flash coding. Anywho, I came upon this really nice horizontal/glide menu from a way talented flash guru who was nice enough to share his source files with me...

LoadVariables() won't work across domains, right, so, is it porrible to send data to a CGI script via getURL and not have a popup window on send?

But when I click a link I get 3 window boxes that open up. HERE IS A VERSION WHERE 3 LINKS OPEN The download file I've taken out all links except for TRY THIS ? Why it launches so many windows?It seems that its trying to open every page.I've taken out all my links except for the TRY BUTTON.

Note: I rarely join forums or post threads, however, given the living hell i went through to figure this problem out I thought i would go ahead and post this for all others having my problem (in hope that you find this link and it solves your problem). Aim: using frames, I want to create a flash menu in the left frame, the buttons in the left frame should open up the target page into the (main) right frame. [in other words a normal frame based website that has a flash menu as the navigation for the site] Problem: When using getURL to open the page in the frame i.e. on (release) {

I have a get url code to activate a lightbox which works perfectly.
ActionScript Code:
sample_link.onRelease = function () {
getURL("javascript:openShadowbox('ww.example.com/video.flv','Player',Title','videos','640','360')");
}
I have several different videos I want to lightbox. Rrather than having several instances of sample_link for each video; I want just once instance, where the getURL is changed by a separate button .
ActionScript Code:
sample_link.onRelease = function () {
getURL("is equally to X");
}

I am using Flash CS3, AS 2.0 and I have a button with -
on (release) {
getURL ("http://www.axiomaudio.com/store.html", _blank)
}
This is a small banner in an HTML page and I want it to open in the same window instead of opening a new window. I have tried using _self) instead of _blank) but it still opens a new window.

I am creating a website with a flash menu on each page. I am using getUrl code to target each page but I can't seem to get the pages to open in the same window. If I use '_new' or '_blank' the pages open in a new window as they should but if I use '_self' or '_top' nothing happens.
Code: AS3

I am creating a standalone Flash projector in which the user will be able to click a button to view a PDF file, I am using the getURL method to open the PDF file and it opens in my default Internet browser instead of Acrobat Reader, which is kind of expected. Is there anyway to 'launch' to open in Acrobat Reader instead?

In all previous versions of flash I have been able to use "geturl" on a button and pull up a pdf in a local directory on my computer. Now with CS5, the same code pulls up a webpage and actually tries to go to a url. Is there a new way in CS5 to open a pdf on my local drive?

I have a menu that navigates my webpage. Say, for instance, I click on the "Home" button, it should take me to the homepage.I want the home page to open in the same window, not another window or tab. So I used this code:
Code:
on (release) {
getURL("http://www.mywebpage.com/home",_self);
}
Yet the homepage opens in a new window instead of the same window. Should I be using the "_self" parameter, or something different?

I have a strange getURL Problem under some windows installations. I autostart a Flash-projector from a CDROM. This file contains some buttons with getURL. When clicking on the buttons, the browser starts and shows a HTML-file from the CDROM.But under some circumstances this won't work. We have found some Windows-installations where we are not able to start the browser by calling getURL.I know, this seems not to be a Flash problem. It looks like a problem in the interaction from a Flash projector and Windows.

I am using the getURL function in response to a button event. I need it to open the URL (absolute) in a new browser window, but I need the new browser window to open on top of the current browser window. Right now it's opening behind the current browser window. Below is my code:
on (release){
getURL("absolute URL here", "_blank");

Is there a work around to the getURL Firefox issue? I am having trouble getting Firefox to open my file from my exe when FF is set to my default browser. If FF is already open, the getURL functions fine. If FF is closed, I have to click on my button twice in order to open the file (ie, click once opens a blank window, click again and the file opens) I have FF 2.0.0.1, Flash MX 2004 Prof. I have tried setting an interval to have the getURL fire again but I can't seem to get it to work.

Now, _top, _self, I can't get anything to work for what I want to do. What I'm trying to do is make it so when I click a link, it opens it in the SAME tab. I have seen many (dozens) of these problems, but none seem to help. On firefox, it openes in a new tab, (I have it set so windows open in new tabs), on IE it opens in a new window, and in chrome it opens in a new tab. Please help me fix this problem,

I have different buttons to open another browser window using getURL. The problem is each button opens a new browser window. If a user does not close the window when coming back, there would be many browser windows open the same time. A few users get confused by this thinking that they are accessing the same page.Is there a way to control it so the popup will open all at the same window (if someone chooses not to close the window each time)?

The powers that be have decided a project I'm working on shouldn't go on a website after all, but needs to be on a CD for Windows users instead and of course I only have a couple of days to made the "relevant tweaks" as they call them.It needs to run directly from the CD so I presume AIR isn't a good option.I've got all of it working by publishing to a Windows Projector executable. The bit I'm stuck with is allowing users to click buttons to open various directories which will be on the CD. These are source files for following tutorials from the main part of the CD. I've tried playing around with the various options in the FileReference class (namely browse() and download()), but they seem to be set up for use online only.

The things is, I've build an application in flex which suppose to be for web but when I'm running it through the Flash builder, it opens up flash player app instead of opening in a web browser. I've tried to do "run as webapplication" but failed.
