ActionScript 2.0 :: Opening Popup Window From Flash Button
Jun 24, 2010
Is it possible to open a cross domain pop up window from a flash button. Let's say something like this:
ActionScript Code:
on (release) {
getURL ("javascript:NewWindow=window.open('[URL]','newWin','width=800,height=650,left=60,top=60,toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars=no,status=No,resizable=No,fullscreen=No'); NewWindow.focus(); void(0);");
}
Is a button hosted in domain that links to a secure page in link. Will it work or will it get blocked by browsers or internal flash restrictions?
I have an html page with a link that loads a popup window. The popup includes a simple Flash movie. Some basic Javascript code in the html file was used to produce the popup window. What Im trying to do is have a button that I created in the Flash app close the Flash movie and the popup window.
What I need is a new window with fixed dimensions... I found a script somewhere in the web that works fine with firefox but with ie (I tested only in ie8) the built-in popup blocker is preventing the window to open...Here is the code use:For the flash button:
Code: on (release) { getURL ("javascript:openWindow('mypage.php','newWindow','toolbar=0,location=0,directries=0,status=0,menubar=0,scrollbars=1,resizable=0,width=480,height=650,left=80,top=180')"); }
In the head section of the page that contains the flash movie:
Code: <script language="javascript"> function openWindow(URL,windowName,windowProperties) {newWindow=window.open(URL,windowName,windowProperties);} </script>
I came across the following javascript code that creates a fullscreen pop up window from a rollover button (html/javascript) that appears to be unaffected by popup blockers in IE (or at least on my computers it's unaffected). However, when I adapt the button code to actionscript for use with a flash button it starts to trigger the popup blocker. figure out the correct actionscript to make this work without being blocked?
I'm looking to create a flash based popup window when a button is pressed within the flash movie. Not a javascript based html window or html browser window, but a window that is in the flash movie that is entirely flash based. I looked all over the internet and can't seem to find anything on this, and can't find anything on this board either. I am new to flash and actionscripting in general. I would also like to use the Tweener external class, or the flash tween class would work too.
So the following code allows us to open an HTML link with the click of a button
function callLink(event:MouseEvent):void { var myURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.adobe.com/");[code].......
The problem is that this always opens the link in a new window. So what if I want it to open in the same window? Changing the line to:
var myURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http:url...); results in a compiler error.I am embedding this swf on a web page of my own, so there are no security concerns regarding giving flash access.
But it keeps opening the link in a new window, how do I stop it from doing that so it opens in the same window the swf will be in? Where do I add target=_self?
Right now I have everything set up and linked correctly except when you click the button it opens up a new tab rather than just going straight to the suggested URLHere is the code I have now...
button_1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToWebPage); function fl_ClickToGoToWebPage(event:MouseEvent):void {
I'm looking for code which will use my buttons instance name and when the button is clicked a new window will open up a new web page at the exact size referred to in the code. I tried playing around with this code but it comes up with errors.
test_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler1); function mouseDownHandler1(event:MouseEvent):void { navigateToURL("hhtp://www.website.com/onlinesurvey.html","_self"; var jscommand:String = "window.open('http://www.website.com
I got to open a javascript popup with standard size in a website from flash. i.e. it should be able to click in flash, and open up a popup window displaying the content of the URL. I tried the fscommand method from macromedia but it doesnt work. ( btw my published file is asp.net although I don't think that makes any difference from html in terms of javascript)
Code: _root.Movie.textfield.htmlText += "<A HREF='javascript:popUp('" + links[j]+ "')>" + Works[j] + "</A><br>" There's this line I input into flash.. but it doesn't work either even though there is no error.
I'm trying to do a popup window that is sized at 300x200 when clicking a button using the following code var jscommand:String = "window.open('[URL','win','height=200,width=300,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes');"; var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("javascript:" + jscommand + " void(0);"); navigateToURL(url, "_self"); It opens up fine except on Safari 3.
How to make a button which opens a pop up window(don't really knows if that's the correct name) with a image or text, centered, but the site isn't available unless I click the "x" button on that window or outside the window.
is it somehow possible to open a HTML popup window from within Flash and have it receive text data from Flash which should be printed ... and this all only in AS3 and Javascript (since no server-side scripting is available)?
I'm creating a sort of guessing game/trivia with AS 2.0. I have a popup window with a question, and four answers with a button next to each answer. The question and answers are dynamic text that are set by clicking on a "question" button.I was thinking I could do was click an answer button, which sets "current answer"... compare that with "correct answer" and do something? If it doesn't match, set the dynamic text to "wrong answer". If it's correct, then gotoAndStop(something)... I can get the answer buttons to trace their values(current answer) as I click on them, but when I try and goto () or do something based on these values (true) it seems just do whatever is in the if statement... not based on the answer being correct?Hmmm... like if I say: if (This is true)Not sure if I'm explaining this properly. But basically I have a popup window with a question. I have four answers, with buttons to select choice. I want to compare the choice/buttons pressed with a variable "correct answer" and then do something.
I am trying call a popup window from actionscript on a button and am having trouble I am using following: import flash.external.ExternalInterface; Then on the button in Flash: on (release) { ExternalInterface.call("myPopup.start", "#contactForm"); } but I don't know if ExternalInterface will properly call the start() method.... am a little lost The page is @ [URL] and the link at the bottom "CLICK HERE FOR FORM" is what needs to be incorporated into a flash button on the SWF.
i'm using the centered pop up window script from: [URL]. i have multiple buttons in my flash movie which open screenshot html pages in external browser windows. the script works fine except when a popup window stays open. the rest of the buttons don't open/replace past that one popup. i tried changing the window name in the onRelease script to screen1, screen2, etc for each button, but that didn't work.
I need to close the popup(adobe flex), non modal window if I click on the parent page of the popup. I have to do the out of focus check and then do some validation before close the popup. So what I was thinking that is there any inbuilt focus check event or do we need to create custom event for that?
I am trying to get a html popup window to open when my movie hits a certain frame instead of a button. Im using the following code but it uses a button instead of a frame to open the popup.
on (release) { customize the window that gets opened 0 equals NO.[code]........
I have l a flash file in my pages that links to other pages within my web site but when clicked they automatically open in another window. How can I link them without opening a new window as would happen with a normal web page link?
Here is my current Action Script code: index.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,indexbuttondown);
function indexbuttondown(event:MouseEvent):void { var bbcURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("index.html"); navigateToURL(bbcURL); }
I'm working on a portfolio in Flash CS3 and AS3. I'm trying to avoid doing the whole thing in Flash, so the home page is a CSS/HTML header page that will house a looping flash piece underneath the header, and the inner portfolio will be flash pieces brought into the same CSS header framework.I'd like to know what kind of code I need to use in the portolio flash navigation so that the "home" link will open the CSS/HTML home page in its same window, rather than launching another window. Is this something that can be done using AS3, or do I need javascrpt as well?
I'm trying to place a popup window (TitleWindow) in the middle of the main application window. how do i set the coordinates of my popup window to be of the main application window? i tried the localToGlobal function but with no luck, I just can't get the main window x and y.
Go to [URL]. Click on "The Photos". It will pop up in a fullscreen window. Try resizing the window and you'll notice that the background is vector and it looks like the scale mode is set to "showAll". BUT, the photos look like they have a separate scale mode set to "noScale". They don't resize.
I went through the tutorial on this site that shows you how to launch a popup window, from Flash, that is centered. The only thing is that I would like to be able to open multiple windows so customers can compare many different products. I tried a few things but can't get it to work.
We have Flash movie in one domain and accessed from other Domain. The links in Flash movie was not working and with security restricitions we cannot use 'allowscriptaccess'. So, we used System.security.loadPolicyFile [URL]; and included the XML in our assets. This worked for the links to open in New Window. But, when the links were changed to open in the same window, the links are working in Flash Player versions till 9.2XIn the versions, 9.4X+, it is not working.
I have the following problem trying to open a new window from flash:
getURL(url, new_window, "POST")
What happened was that the first time I clicked the button, it opens a new window; but subsequent clicks seem to do nothing... No "post" is done and that window doesn't get refreshed.
I'm trying to make a flash based popup window what i want to do is make it so that the popup window starts off screen and then smoothly moves onto the screen when the code that causes the popup fires..I'm not looking for an html or javascript popup window this will be a popup window inside the flash environment.
I'm a web designer but I just don't use a lot of Flash. I'm sure this will change as time goes on. For now, I'm still using an old version of Flash MX on my Mac - Flash MX version 6. But I don't think that has anything to do with the problem. I designed a flash animation for my wife's website back in 2004 and it has always worked perfectly up until installing the most recent Flash Player 10.0.32.18 just a few days ago. Here's the problem:On my wife's website, we have a special link called "view presentation". You click on that link and a smaller, separate window pops up. Inside of this pop up window is the flash animation (the actual swf file). In the HTML code for the pop up window, I have coded the following javascript:
function closeWin() { if (document.images) { self.close();
