I have seen popup blocker detection script in Javascript that will alert folks that a window did not launch due to a pop-up blocker. What I was wondering is, is it possible to detect that within flash and play a movie if a popup blocker is enabled? I need to forewarn folks that certain areas of this flash site require popups and that they have them blocked currently.
View 7 RepliesI 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?

how to detect pop-up blockers? I just visited a site that has a very nice way of detecting if the client's browser has pop-ups blocked.
http:[url]....
It presents the visitor with an alternative page with a message that informs the user about the pop-up blocker and gives them a link back to the home page. I think the alternative page is http:[url]....
I'm playing an flv file inside flash player (swf). I want to open a pop-up window if user clicks the movie. I'm calling a js window.open function from the flash file (by onRelease event), but the bloody IE pop-up blocker blocks my pop-up. What can I do in order to pass this pop-up blocker?
View 3 RepliesClicking the button sends the text to a backend server where it does a profanity filter.I'm using an event listener to get a response from the back end. If there is no profanity, the swf does a navigateToURL.Unfornetly the url request is blocked by many browsers.When I skip the profanity filter and the navigateToURL is fired in the MouseEvent function then it doesn't get blocked
View 9 RepliesI'm busy with making a XML banner in AS3. It worked so far with the following code:
Code:
Select allvar xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xmlData:XML = new XML();
xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, LoadXML);
xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest("private"));
function LoadXML(e:Event):void {
[Code] .....
And it worked! It bypassed all the browsers popup blockers, but it brought in some new problems. Every time the .swf loops. The addeventlistener adds a listener. So if the .swf loops 5 times it will open 5 windows when I will click it. I've tried to use removeeventlistener but with no success so far. In the code without the popup bypass this problem didn't occurred. Probably due the new URLRequest. But I don't know how to use this in the javascript. The other problem is the string of the link. For some reason javascript deletes parts of the link when there is an question mark in it. Example:
If the link is [URL]
The link what will open is: [URL]
PHP Code:
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader() var xmlData:XML =new XML(); xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, LoadXML); xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest("private"));

If you create a popup via:[code]It will create a popup and bring it on top of any other visual piece. I have one problem though. This 'popup' needs to stay up even when the user interacts with the background.I would use modal, but I need the ability to interact with the back. Any way to tell the popup manager not to remove the popup when the user clicks off of it?

I'm currently pulling data into Flash 7, Actionscript 2.0 from an RSS XML file. One of the nodes in the XML is the dateTime for each entry. After pulling in the dateTime how can I format how it displays?
Example:
dateTime format in XML- Mon, 10 Apr 2006 16:35:00 -0700
I want it to display like this in Flash in a text field- 4/10/2006, Monday, 10:35am
or
10:35am, Monday, April 10, 2006
etc.
I am adding flash galleries toon the Facilities and Gallery pages. On my mac I've tested the galleries using Firefox, Safari, and Opera and they are working perfectly as expected.However, there is no gallery, or error message on PC machines. I do not have a PC so I can't test it, but I've had a Vista and XP user both test the site and the galleries do not display at all.

Code:

View 4 RepliesMy application pops up help windows outside of flex on several occasions. I need to warn the user to allow pop ups from my app if they have the pop-up blocker on.

View 1 RepliesI have a web application which contains a data grid. Double clicking on any row of that grid will open a popup (lets call it popup1).

i'm calling a php file, which is supposed to make an xml file. whenever i call the php file using this syntax, most of the time i get "cannot load file" in the xml loading section, but this updates the xml file.
[code] loadVariables("http://localhost/file.php",this,"POST");[/AS]
but when i do it this way. [code] loadVariables("http://localhost/file.php",NONE,"POST");[/AS]
the "cannot load file" messge doesn't get displayed, and the file loads perfectly, but this doesn't update the xml file.
so everytime i have to first use "this" and then "none".
what can i do so that whenever php is called, it'll update the xml file, and still load in the swf.

View 4 RepliesWhen I use the code below it works fine and loads the CSS-file and shows the the html-textarea as it should be CSS-formatted. BUT when I try to put the SAME code into a movieclip within another fla-movie it does not work (loads text but not css) and I get un "undefined" all the time. After trying a lot of different things I've come to the conclusion that it MIGHT have soemthing to do with the .onLoad that gets "undefined" in some way. As you can see below I'm getting two vars from input textfields and then use a button to activate the function loadCSS().
[Code]...
Like any of it's simple, but here's what I've got...I'm doing my loadVars, everything's going peachy, but now I want to swap the variable. I've got a bunch of vars in a text file, and here's how I'm doing it right now...
Code:
on (release) {
output1.text = myLoadVar.name2;
}
Now, this works ok, but with as many vars as I'm planning for, I'd like something that I didn't have to make a ton of frames just to have it run.
Code:
on (release) {
output1.text = myLoadVar.(name('prevnum'+1));
}
How do I do this?
Im making my first flash game so forgive me if there is anything with my actionscript or my explaining that is messed up.
This game is a 4 player (<--will be) tank game that fires bullets and stuff. so far its working just how i want it to apart from one thing... the duplication for the bullet. This snippet of the script is the bit that should make the bullet firing. if you look at these to bits of script "_root.depth += 1;", "duplicateMovieClip(_root.bullet, "bullet"+depth, depth);" to my understanding the "depth" should increase BUT it doesn't? does anyone know what is going on?
[Code]...
I have following lines inside a function
var u = clips.clip1.getDepth();
clips.clip1.duplicateMovieClip("clip1clone", u-1);
the problem is that clip1clone is not generated. I think it has to do something with path, I have to add somehow a path to clip1clone? I tried 0 instead of u-1 but it didnt work so I guess the problem is with path?
smooth out this scrolling text script. It works perfect but its not smooth. (keyframes are up at 45fps) I know I can just call the function quicker but it's just not the effect im lookin for. I want a steady smooth look to it.
Code:
iniText = "Hello this is some text.";
mov_cnt=0;[code]....
I'm attempting to create an effect system that will allow for motion blurs and a variety of other effects.My attempt to create this system is by using a series of movie clips that are duplicates of a main movie clip, each a snapshot slightly farther back in time.This doesn't work, as I think I may be lacking some fundemental understanding of how clip duplication works.Below is code that should be creating a duplicate clip, 10 frames behind in time. The clip exists but the sub-clip isn't attached.
Code:
// The main movie clip.
var main_mc : MovieClip;

I was looking over the script from AS.org. for the page flip navigation.[URL]But see the thing with the script from AS.org is that it does not allow you to use images as the pages.
