ActionScript 2.0 :: Getting Information About The URL Hosting An SWF

Mar 25, 2005

Does anyone know of a way to obtain information about the environment that a SWF is served into? Things like the URL of the page that is hosting the SWF? So say there's the URL which has the movie flashmovie.swf embeded in it ... is there a way to get the URL from inside flashmovie.swf and cast it into a string datatype?

I've been picking apart the _global object by recursively un-hiding it and the objects it holds properties, but so far have not come up with anything that could prove useful. I want to be able to do this for error logging.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Hosting Swf Files Online

Jun 26, 2011

I was able to get it all to work well. I finished the Flash based simple quiz game I was making. I apologize if the title is vague, but I thought this best described the issue at hand for me. If not, I hope the detailed question below can be of better use. What I want to do with this flash, which I've published as a swf, html file, is to upload them online to a forum I've been working on. This forum is a free creating forum, Forumotion. Anyway I have the files all done, but need a way to host it on the forum now.

I've been searching and doing research for free hosting sites to upload my swf file to, but have not had much luck. I was just wondering if anyone knew any good, legitimate, and preferably free hosting sites, which I could create a domain space on. I am also unsure if it is possible to do such a thing with a flash/swf files that have been created in Action Script 3.

I want to build a silverlight web application that could installed on a user's computer. So any hosting requirements would be subject to whatever configuration the user has. What are there requirements to host a silverlight application? I need the same question answered for Flash and WPF.

Is it required that the .Net framework (or whatever Flash uses in that case) be installed on the machine? Obviously some webserver must be installed, what are the restrictions on the webserver for these three technologies?

Php :: Securing Flex App On Shared Hosting

Oct 20, 2011

I finished a Flex app using FB4.5 and uploaded and tested it fine to a shared host. I'm now in the process of securing the app using https, but have landed in a quagmire.I forced the load of all pages to https with .htaccess so that the Flex app loads with SSL. Problem is that I get a connection failed ('BadVersion') when the app makes a data service call using the gateway.php file because of the .htaccess force (it is looking for http rather than https). I believe I can hardcode the https path in the Flash Builder class file, but I don't want prevent the app from working on my dev machine either.Also, even if the gateway.php file is called using SSL, will the following calls to the PHP files containing the actual SQL queries fail because of the forced SSL by the .htaccess directives.

Instead of using .htaccess, I have also successfully used PHP to secure the initial launch of the app with a https redirect statement in the beginning. This allows the app to work, calling the gateway.php file fine because it isn't forcing https on everything. BUT, this defeats the purpose of trying to get everything to be encrypted.Is is it necessary to have the gateway.php file launched on SSL because of transmitting in binary AMF?

Flash :: AS3 Swf Hosting An Swf Share The Same Array?

I have an AS2 swf that has an array that is updated when a user clicks on items on the screen. The array stores the currently selected items. This As2 swf is hosted by an AS3 swf loaded in using Loader class and a local connection between them is managed by swfBridge. I want to know what the best way for both AS3 and AS2 swfs to share this array is? or how can I call a function in the AS2 (client) swf and return the array to the AS3 (host) swf when it needs to read the items from the array?

Flash Streaming Video Hosting Solutions?

Aug 2, 2011

I'm trying to find a reliable yet cost-effective solution for hosting our small collection of .f4v videos. We're a small company so price is a major consideration. We also need the video to stream.I found Vimeo and it's cheap but they don't provide streaming.

Viddler looks like a good solution. It's is a little more expensive but streaming is available.We're trying to avoid enterprise solutions such as Akamai, etc.Any others out there?I also know about Red5 but prefer to have it hosted.

Flash :: API Method On The Same Server That Is Hosting The SWF File?

Nov 4, 2011

I'm trying to request to an API method on the same server that is hosting the SWF file. I'm getting a security error 2048. This occurs whether I use POST or GET, and leaving the request data blank doesn't improve things. Nothing is sent in either case, and I get a SecurityErrorEvent to stare at. Everything works smoothly from the IDE.

The applet isn't trying to load the crossdomain.xml file, so it apparently isn't considering the request to be cross-domain, and shouldn't be any other domains involved. Loading images from the swfRoot works fine.

Is there anything else that could be causing this error? Furthermore, is there any way I can find out more details about what exactly is going on? Tracing the toString of the ErrorEvent only gives me "Error 2048" - I've seen reference in other questions to messages for this error that read "cannot load data from XXX", but I can't seem to get one of these (I'm using Flash CS5).

ActionScript 2.0 :: Hosting SWFs On A Separate Domain?

May 19, 2010

I have an issue that is nearly identical to the poster of this thread, but this post is from 2007 and I think things might have changed since then.

To sum it up: I have a website with HTML files on Server A, and SWFs on Server B.

Users navigate to playgame.html (Server A) with MainMovie.swf (Server B) embedded in it.

MainMovie.swf is supposed to load a number of SWFs (from Server B) throughout. As far as I know they all need to be called with an absolute path, because a relative path will construct the path through the URL of the browser page which is still on Server A. Am I on the right path so far?

My MainMovie.swf literally calls hundreds of SWFs in hundreds of places and setting them all to absolute paths would take forever.

What other options do I have so that it all works on a remote server with relative URLs? MainMovie.swf is in a remote sandbox and can supposedly access files within its own domain, but it's the relative URLs that are killing me.

One solution I could think of is to load an html frame from Server B within playgame.html on Server A, and embed the SWF in there....

Windows :: Finding An Amazon EC2 Hosting Instance For A Website?

May 28, 2011

My company is about to conduct a big project which involves a flash games website. This website is targeted to the US, meaning it will serve a lot of concurrent users. We bought many flash games and the website is about to be finished, so we must find a hosting company right away.

The website consists of 10 static pages, 140KB each (design+images+CSS).JavaScript is being delivered via Google CDN (jQuery, SWFObject) to save bandwidth.We have 20 SWF games, each weights around 500KB to 6MB top.I'm planning to use dynamic compressions and basically any possible method to save bandwidth and resources, but nevertheless I must get a large hosting for possible growing in the future.SQL is nothing special: DB size will be 150MB top and all tables are indexed using fulltext catalogs and non-clustered indexes.

After doing some research, I've found that big websites are using Amazon's EC2. I tried to contact Amazon but they're weren't really helpful. All I got is the following URL.We are talking about Windows 2008 R2 and SQL Server 2008 R2.

Actionscript 3 :: Wowza Or Red5 Hosting For Minimal Usage?

Jan 20, 2012

I'm getting into selling Flex webcam recorder applications. Such applications send streams to either wowza or Red5 servers for saving and playing back the streams.

I'm running into an issue regarding setting up a server to demonstrate the functionality of the applications to the users online. Two things to consider :

I don't have much money to spend on expensive media hosting services The streaming-server usage will be minimal as it will only accept small non-frequent streams from users trying the application on my website.

Any media hosting services I can use? will [URL]..work in my case ? Will it be a better(cheaper) solution if I can setup my own streaming server ?

Professional :: Flash Slide Show Not Showing After Hosting Change

When I changed hosting from the companies hosting to my own personal GoDaddy hosting everything went right, except for 2 flash slide shows (Simple rotating images). They just apear as clear boxes now. You can see what I am talking about here: [URL] and here [URL] . You will notice the empty large empty box on the right in both pages. When you right click on it the browser recognizes that it is flash. On the Piza site I tried taking out the original code and entering the flash object via Dreamweaver CS5, but that yeilded the same results (I only mention this because the code on that site will thus look a bit different).

ActionScript 2.0 :: Contact Form And Hit Counter - Hosting Server Does Not Supports PHP

Jul 9, 2010

"Contact Form" and "Hit Counter"... I tried the PHP version, but the hosting server does not supports PHP and I can't change this, must do it some other way... but have no idea how to. I heard of "ASP" but no idea how to use that.

Actually, all I need is a way to send an email with one message (the topic and "from" does not even matters... and the email is always the same) from inside the flash movie. And also the hit counter is inside the flash movie. Is this hard or imposible without PHP? I tried one ASP tutorial from google, but in the end... for some reason, the ASP code showed in a new web browser window.
