I would like a Flash application to remember the settings that a user on a specific machine or specific browser has earlier set. This is possible, right? What's the most neat way of doing this? Using some kind of a flash cache?
View 3 RepliesI have been updating my flash pages, and so many people cant see the changes, because they have to reset their cache in the browser .. which is fine for any savvy internet user .. but there's a lot o folks out there who dont recognise this action .. are there any tips to talk to the browser that changes have been made?

I request my user from mic and camera setting on my website with Flash, but the remember checkbox does not show, so every time my user logs in he's requested once again for permissions, how can I make the checkbox show to avoid this?

View 1 RepliesI have seen similar threads, but I am trying to recreate something I saw on a similar site where the user can record actions such as clicking buttons to produce sounds and stop the recording and then replay what the notes that they played.
I realize that I will need an array of some sort, but I am trying to work it out and I can't seem to get my head around how do replay actions such as the site example above.
I have a site which utilizes an xml sheet for it's menus. Sometimes after making changes to the xml, I need to clear the browser's cache to see the updated menu. Sometimes I don't.
View 4 RepliesI've got a parent SWF that loads in a couple child SWFs. Even though my browser cache is cleared -- it's disabled, in fact -- reloading, or even restarting, the browser doesn't trigger the newest version of the child SWFs to load into the parent SWF. I can even delete the SWF off the FTP server, and it still gives me the last version that was up there.
What's caching the child SWFs, and how do I force them to refresh on my end? I'm not too concerned about the end user, because once the site development is over, the SWF files won't change very often. (They're all loading in XML files that have the cache disabled via PHP cache control and expires headers.)
I'm primarily using Firefox on PC and Mac, but it seems to do the same thing on IE/PC and Safari/Mac. The PC is using my ISP's DNS, and the Mac is using OpenDNS... not sure if that has anything to do with it. The site is hosted on Rackspace Cloud.
This question is more about updating swf and xml files on the browser. I have a gallery site that has muliple swf files loaded on the master swf on button click. These swf files loads an xml file. My problem is that whenever I update the xml or swf file, the browser still has the flash cache stored so I have to manually refresh the file to see the changes. As in, I can't just refresh the index.html. I have to refresh the
/xml/filename.xml or /flash/filename.swf
Which works but then when other people view the site again, they won't know that they have to refresh the files because they don't know the file name or path. Know what I mean? I researched the net and found solutions like using index.php instead of html or using a random variable string like index.php?mod="34342234" but that only seems to update the master swf.
I have a media player, which rotates images for the artist it plays. I load the images dynamically into the flash. The flash downloads the same images from the server over and over, how can i cache the images, so flash grabs them from a local cache and not from the server?
View 2 RepliesI've uploaded my slideshow swf to my WIP website (CSS files got overwritten ) Everything is working great. It's looping, I have a preloader animation, ect. The problem I now want to resolve is getting the loader to cache the image files. When the slideshow is told to go back to image[0], it reloads it again. As the whole point of this project was to work around my free web hosting's bandwidth limits, as well as getting more experience working with XML, this simply wont do. Imagine if someone browsing my site left the main page running for a few hours! What I need it to do is to somehow force the browser to cache the images once they are loaded, or at least I think this is what I need to do? Here's the code again:
Code:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;

I'm just trying to store a simple cookie that will remember the score for the next time the user plays the game (the score governs if an option is visible or not)It all works fine until I close browser/reload the page, at which point the shared object seems to disappear, any clues?
Write:
Code:
var rem_score:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("score");
rem_score.data.score = new Number(score);
rem_score.flush();
The problem prolly lies in my write code but ill post the reading aswell just incase there is a problem with that too
Code:
var rem_score:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("score");
if (rem_score.data.score != undefined) {
this.remdscore = rem_score.data.score;
if (rem_score.data.score >=30) {

There is another point it is read but it is the same sort of thing as the above.
I frequently update my website. But customers do not see immediately the changes as the cache displays the previous version.
View 2 RepliesWhen I deploy a new .swf file in an HTML file as shown below, I have to clear the browser cache before the new .swf file loads in the browser. Is there anyway to force the browser to load the .swf file when I replace it with a new one on the server.

View 3 RepliespreLoad the browser Cache? I have 3 SWfs which I will load and unload into movieclips as needed (for good memory management). But, I'd love to preload the browser cache (not my main movie) with all 3 so that when I do load them, they load quickly. I don't want to load and unload them from my main movie, as that bogs down the movie. Is there a way to get the browser to pre-load them?

main.swf is my 1st file which i embedded in index.html by using actionscript 2.0 dynamically i am loading the external files ( which is about.swf, sevices.swf.. ) whenever i click a specific button it loads a specific swf file. which works perfectly fine with me. but it gets really annoying each time i have to load the files and wait for the files to get loaded. i wanted a javascript or actionscript code which will load all my external swf files invisibly in the cache of the browser while browsing the website. So that whenever i click a button its load instantly without waiting to load again.

I've noticed that some flash content does not get into a browsers' cache and some does. I tried it with many different flash sites and flash games. Games can usually be easily retrieved from the browser's cache and then decompiled, which is not good for their developer but I can't say the same about many flash sites (not all of course).
how to protect my flash content from being put into a browser's cache folder?

View 1 RepliesIf I am on a flash heavy website, and I clear my browser cache, the site continues to function. Chances are the entire swf is not loaded into flash's active memory at the time I clear the browser cache (especially for sites that use large rsl libraries such as papervision3d). I can verify this with flash-builder's profiling tools. So, where are the swf libraries kept on disk (or in memory somewhere else?) which allow the site to continue to function?
View 4 RepliesI have a flex application about 2M need to send to browser, so I want the browser to reserve the file in cache forever unless I upgrade the version. I have set the ETAG and last-modified tag in http reponse header, but sometimes, when the user click the refresh, the swf file still be reloaded. So what http response header can I use to reserve the file in browser cache forever?

I have a bunch of flvs that I want to play seamlessly. I figured the safest way to ensure a seamless playback was to preload the files first using a class called bulkloader. Once they have all loaded I start using the flvplayback component with .load() on mulitple vp depths.
My reasoning was the second time the flv file is requested (through the flvplayback.load method) it has already been cached in the browser cached from the previous call so it will be pretty much instant. When I test this with Charles proxy (throttled but with caching allowed it makes two calls for each flv and both are requested from the server ignoring any caching.
I wonder if there is a special case where flv's don't get cached. The bulkloader class uses a netstream object to download the video and I wonder if that has different behaviour to a loader object when it comes to caching.
Is there a way to set up a method to clean browser cache every time user visit your website?
View 5 RepliesHow do I go about preloading a swf into the browsers cache, but not into the preloader movie? There are a ton of flash sites out there that preload a movie and when the loading is finished have an "enter" button. That enter button sometimes launches a new window with the already loaded swf. How is that done?
View 2 RepliesHow the browser caches .swf and it's content? For example, if I have an image slideshow that load data specified in XML on the domain, will it be cached for access if the same swf is used on the domain or does it have to be re-cached?
