I am developing a standalone flash application using xml. Its kind of a slide show. There are 100 slides and all the content is coming from XML. The problem is when ever i want to make a change i.e in XML- lets say 99th slide, i have to close the swf and run it again to check the changes in the 99th slide. Is there any option to load the xml everytime when i click next button.

I had an issue with my index.html testing on IE and the preloader just stalls on "loading 0%". he told me that locally the progress event doesn't have time to load and to try uploading it to your server and see if it works. It worked just fine. Rah Rah Kglad.
So today I'm fine tuning the swf/ fla to clean it up. Reduced some picture sizes and deleted unused files and reduced the swf from 4000 KB to 350 KB Rah Rah Gene. replaced the swf in Dreamweaver and re-uploaded with Filezilla. Rah ah Filezilla.
Everything working great and my preload went from 23 seconds to less than 3. So I'm real happy except for one small issue. Firefox and IE both do this. If I hit the refresh button, it stalls on "loading 0%" once again just like it did locally.
If I hit the refresh several times it WILL refresh randomly....2 times refresh......10 times refresh etc.

But if you click on the first or fourth option, instead of going to their respective scenes it goes to then 2nd options scene. Here is the kicker though - if you refresh the page Control+F5 everything works fine How come it only works after you refresh the page? here is link FLASH PORTFOLIO. Then click on personal portfolio link.
View 1 Repliesproblem is the score board is shown at the beginning if requested and at the end to show your score when the game is finished. The problem I have is refreshing the scores (replacing the current text in the boxes) rather than just adding the text again into the dynamic text boxes..Here is my code :-
var tab = "game1score";// update for each game // game2score, game3score....
var filesend = "receive.php";
var modesend = "post";
//This is called when the high scores are viewed at the beginning of the game
private function onHighScoresButtonClick(event:MouseEvent):void { var receptobjet = variableTransaction(filesend, modesend, tab, false, false); highScoresPage.rejouerButton.visible = false; highScoresPage.blueMan.visible = false; removeChildAt(0); addChildAt(highScoresPage, 0);}[code].....
I have a file upload tool that I created in flash (as2). The file uploads images and then writes the image details to a database. However, I seem to have a problem then when I refresh the page, the upload script keeps working.And this seems to cause some issues with writing to the database when image don't actually appear to be on the server. I have fixed the issue by doing some checking to see if the file actually exists before writing to the server, but I would like to know why this happens.

We are moving to a new platform and have a flash banner on the home page that will be changing frequently with new promos, etc. You can find the flash banner at [URL].

View 11 RepliesI want my site to refresh every time I open it. I've been looking at the unique identifier script, but I can't seem to understand where it goes. Is it in the HTML with the SWF or in the SWF itself?When you load a movie, variables, or a text, what you load is put in the cache of your computer by your browser. This can cause problems because if you load files, chances are that you are going to update them quite often, but Flash will look for the files in the cache, that is to say the old ones.The solution is to load your files with a unique identifier. Example:
myIdentifier=Math.round(Math.random()*10000);
loadMovie("myAnim.swf?uniq="+myIdentifier,1);
This works also with LoadVariables, LoadMovieNum and LoadVariablesNum.
how I can prevent flash from reloading when my page is refreshed? When I user clicks the search button the whole page reloads with the data they were looking for but the flash animation at the top of the page also reloads and I would like to prevent this.
View 9 RepliesHow do you force Flash to refresh its xml data?
I have a Flash app that uploads an xml file using URLLoader() and URLRequest(). But this file gets overwritten every 10-30 minutes with fresh data. The only way I've found so far to view changes in the xml data is to refresh my web page (F5 or Ctrl-->F5). Short of turning to Javascript, isn't there some way for Flash to refresh its xml data?
I have a some games made in flash, some in as2 and some in as3... All are loaded using an preloader (another swf file), one for as2 games and one for as3 games... the thing is that for some time now when you load a game the flash player shows a black screen even when the game is loaded, and it stays like that until I rescale the browser window... there is some problem with the flash player refresh I think..
View 1 Replies[URL]. Our client communicates with a Rails backend to get login details and then logs into an Adobe LCCS server. We have been cruising right along but around noon yesterday we developed a bug that causes the swf to not render until you refresh the page. On subsequent refreshes it pops up right away. The problem happened even when I disabled the code that checks in with the Rails server. How could refreshing make a difference?

View 0 RepliesHere's the simple steps
1. Enter part number and submit
2. Part number is sent to server
3. Part number is returned from server with a string of results (manfacturer, product location, number of stock, size, image)
4. Flash takes the results and places them in to their apprpriate display text fields and loads the image also.
All this works great EXCEPT when you try a second, third, fourth...time.
I trace all the responses and get new and correct results for every part number I enter, but it simply won't overwrite the previous displayed data. Nothing I try will get rid of the last results!
Code:
function LoadXML(loaded) {

i want flash to refresh this function in every 1 seconds. how can i do that?

View 3 RepliesI am working on a prototype or proof of concept for my company to adopt Flash as an alternative rather than conventional HTML. I've created my demo XML file locally and followed instructions on a YouTube video (yeah I'm that new) and it all works as it should. The problem is this... I have been looking literrally for hours for a way to get my Flash file to update when the XML gets changed. Either on the fly or via some sort of timer/auto-refresh. I simply cannot wrap my head around it.
Here's my AS3 code so far:

I'm creating a Flash header for a website running on a coldfusion backend. Is there a way to create links on the menu so that only the cfm/html content beneath the banner refreshes but not the entire flash movie?
I have a stop action at the end of the movie now, but when I click on any of the menu links the entire movie replays from the beginning as the content refreshes.
My Flash header wont show all parts until I refresh or go to another page.
View 2 RepliesCan anybody tell me if it is possible to limit the bandwidth or screen refresh rate that a flash movie uses? I have a large number of virtual desktops which use RDP and flash performance is terrible.
If I look at a site in IE that use lots of flash, my RDP session can even hang sometimes or more likely become completely unusable.
I have a site the runs in flash. IE7 will not reload the vars in flash, the vars set by flash in the swf. when the page is reloaded. The thing that bugs me out is refreshing the page actually refreshed the page. The flash started how it was supposed to except the variables in flash didn't reset.This only happens when the "Temporary Internet Files" settings in IE is set to "automatic". But works how it should when "Everytime I visit The Page" is checked.
