I'm making a sports roster for my school's website and I want to use actionscript to save me time updating. Is there a way I can use actionscript to "reference" to a value (code)... on a webpage (url).. so that when the value is updated, it would reflect on my roster?
View 0 RepliesI have a .SWF file that if I test by itself outside of a browser the file reference works just fine. However if I test inside a browser I get nothing.
Is there some publish setting that should be checked?
I am new to Flash and am working on a banner slider where there are 5 different images (slides) that come onto the scene about 8 seconds apart. Each slide I am trying to link to a web page but am getting the error; TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at NLE_fla::MainTimeline/frame1() I'm sure it has to do with the link on the second slide not being found since the slide doesn't load right away. Am I supposed to be loading some variables first or something? Here's my code;

I need to remove the word Button from the reference to reference the actual item that will be tinted.

I'm having this frustrating error showing up and I have no idea why. Let me show you my classes and see if you can spot anything wrong.
First, here's my ILode interface:
ActionScript Code:
package com.schelterstudios.lodeSystem.flash.lodescode].....
So the problem I'm having is the compiler is throwing that 1000: Ambiguous reference error for any reference to instance.priority or instance.label. Why??? Instance is typed to IFlexLodeInstance, and IFlexLodeInstance lists method signatures of priority and label getters, and it inherits ILode, which lists method signatures for priority and label setters. What can I do to get the compiler to stop complaining?
My code is an external .as file. Google provides this code on their demo, which contains the this keyword:
[Code]...
Notice that I have 4 calls to console.log. The first 3 fire, but after the new GATracker statement, the 4th does not fire. I have a feeling that I'm overriding the entire package with the object created from new GATracker when I should be passing a different context. I believe the correct context I should pass is whatever this defaults to when not inside of a package/external file, I assume it references the main stage object.
package uk.co.bigroom.utils
{
import flash.utils.Dictionary;

In this Class, how they denote one as Weak Reference and one as Strong reference.
I made some videos with graphic effects in my video editing software. I suppose it might be easier to make SWF files from dedicated flash software - but I am quite comfortable doing things in video. So anyway, my goal is to be able to play the video on a web page - BUT WITHOUT the controls that go along with flv players such as wimpy. I would be just as happy to use flv if I could figure out how to hide the contols (play, volume etc.). I just want the movie to play - it should just play like an animated gif (but with sound and my option to loop or not).

I'm taking a website i put together, and plopping it on a DVD.
There are 3 parts to it.
One, is the flash .exe, which brings up a small splash page with general info on me. At the bottom there are two links to webpages i made. I would like to keep all the websites files ON the DVD, and not have the end-user need to have an internet connection, although in these times, i guess i could get by that way.
2nd part, is the webpage's main page. The main page contains a flash frame, in which there are six buttons, each with AS(2) looking to a folder on the DVD, to bring up another URL in the same window. Ru:
Code:
on (release) {
getURL("D:/main/1/index.html","_self");
weird thing is, this works when on the hdd, but as soon as i put it on the DVD and try to run it from there, the main page doesn't connect/open the link I specified. I've also tried it:
Code:
getURL("1/index.html","_self");
and that doesn't work either. i'm not if i'm missing something small, but if need be, i can post a chopped down zip or rar with the files needed for someone to take a look at.
i want to integrate my own 3d renderings (avi's) convert to flv and embed into my website.
always used gif anims in the past so dont really have a clue if someone one could give me a rundown of all tools and steps/ procedures with html necessary to acheive this
im not trying to do anything too fancy, just replace the low quality gif anims on my site with some decent quality flash movies
I'm currently developing a full flash site. I've made the dropdown navigation menu with flash also. However, whenever I insert or import it into the webpage .fla, nothing works. When I preview the navigation menu swf file it works perfectly, ie, the mouseover effects, however I lose all actionscript coding when I bring it into my webpage .fla, what am I doing wrong?
View 4 RepliesI've recently uploaded my source files to my host and everything is running fine...except for one of my SWF files and I dont know whats wrong. It works when I run it on dreamweavers preview yet since I've uploaded it, it doesn't work. The file paths correct, the files are in the right folder yet still nothing. The address is doneanddone.co.nz . I already have a SWF that plays sound and that works but the video above the done and done text does not.
View 5 RepliesI was wondering how you got .mov and other such files onto your webpage. Do you convert it or can you upload them somewhere and write actionscript to get it?
View 1 RepliesI have designed a website in flash. I tried all the file resolution size like 1024x768 or 800x600 or even 1000x600. Whatever size it is, the webpage doesnt fit on my monitor.

View 2 RepliesI'm taking a Flash CS4 class at the local community college. Our teacher is making a LOT of assumptions about what we know. Our first assignment is to set up a web site (I've already taken web design I & II, but this is my first exposure to Flash). What I'm looking for is some guidance about the orderly steps to take when setting up a flash web site.I'm thinking I need to go into Photoshop or Fireworks first and design the pages so I can import them.But what about when I get to Flash? Page set-up, size, create layers for each of my pages, import things, where to start adding effects first... I can't decide the most efficient ORDER in which to do things.

Is this possible with Flash?? I want to place a SWF in the top right of the webpage, and when people click on a link from the main menu on the left of the browser, it plays the SWF. This page is written in php, so there is no refreshing of the webpage, just the content.Basically think of an elevator user clicks on menu item, elevator wheel spins, and javascript loads new content....so the elevator wheel has to play everytime a link is clicked.

View 11 RepliesIs there anyway to protect an swf when it is placed on a webpage. I know I can copyright things, but this will not stop people from getting their hands on it. Is there any code I can do to stop any of these decompilers working on it or anything.
View 7 RepliesI've done a search and found out about LocalConnections but I don't seem to be able to apply them to my issue. I have two separate SWF files that appear on the same web page. Both are simple animations and all I want is when the first has finished playing for the second to start, and them when that has completed restart the first one again (and so on...).
I'm also guessing that in order for this to work I'll need some code in the first SWF to detect that the second has finished loading otherwise nothing will happen when the first SWF reaches the end.
I know how to animate with Flash, and I know the basics of Actionscript 2.0 enough to make simple games.I have a project to do which I wanted to do with Javascript/CSS, but instead I'd like to hone my Flash skills to do it.If someone could point me in the right direction that would be awesome! I'm making an image move in a path about a web page without regard to other content on the page.I was thinking that I could make a Flash vid with a transparent background and lay it over the page.If so, how do I make a transparent background? If that's not the solution, can I even do this with Flash?
View 2 RepliesFrom JavaScript, you need to get a reference to the Flash Player object. There are two basic Flash Player versions that run in the browser: ActiveX and the plug-in version. The ActiveX version runs natively in Internet Explorer, while the plug-in version is used by the rest of the browsers. The ActiveX player is controlled by the object tag in an HTML page, and you can retrieve a JavaScript reference using window. objectId where objectId is the value of the id attribute of the object tag. For example, if the object tag's id attribute is example, then the reference to the ActiveX player would be window.example.
The plug-in player is controlled by the embed tag in an HTML page, and you can retrieve a JavaScript reference by using window.document. embedName, where embedName is the value of the name attribute of the embed tag. For example, if the embed tag's name attribute is example, then the reference to the plug-in player would be window.document.example.And here's the question itself:Why does the Flash Player Object exist as a window property when embeded via the object tag, while, when embeded via the embed tag, it exists in the window.document property? And what is the most modern way of getting the Flash Player Object from within a web page?

I'm thinking about setting up a website (based on WordPress) to host video tutorials on interpreting CT scans.
In addition to simply letting the visitor view PowerPoint presentation videos, I'm keen on writing some sort of simple app that I can embed in the blog to allow the visitor to scroll through a series of images (i.e. a scan).
I usually code in REALbasic or Objective-C. What are my language options for making an interactive embeddable image viewer in a blog? The website needs to be able to be viewed on an iPad as well as normal desktop browsers.
I have a flash application that runs on web browsers as well as on desktop with some extra functionality, i use webkit for air with desktop app and i need some alternate of it for web app,
actually i want to render html in flash player and then do some processing on it and allow some operations on it,
Question is how can i open a web page in flash application in browser such that i can do the required operations on it
