I am having trouble with SWFAddress by Asual, I am using as2
The thing is if you use
SWFAddress.setValue("/about/");
then when people type URL : [URL]
However what if when people just type [URL] --> without the slash. I want them to keep referring the about sections of the site. Is it something we have to do in the logic of the event handler:
SWFAddress.onChange = function() {
}
I am trying to work with this flash tutorial -[URL] So far it draws with a simple rounded line. I have been extending this application by making the drawing board bigger and other small things. I now want to be able to choose the line style. Currently it is rounded and I want to choose and draw with other shapes - square, forward slash (/), backward slash (). Is this possible? If so, could you explain how I could go about it?
View 1 RepliesThe timeline swf itself (the core of the site) is being loaded into a wrapper swf, as one of the requirements is that this timeline can be used elsewhere, in other projects. This wrapper, however, will have some additional visuals that pertain to a stand-alone version of this timeline. As a result of never knowing exactly where this is going to be used (either a subchapter in another flash website, or as a stand-alone site by itself), I've decided to dump all of the swfAddress code into the wrapper, in a child class of it. To handle the navigation changes, I'm dispatching custom events (from the timeline) with parameters that describe the nav changes, which gets picked up by the parent wrapper, which then calls a function in the swfAddress child class for handling.
Also done in this swfAddress class is the parsing of the URL onChange event (when a browser back button button or history changes the nav, rather than a Flash button). This, too, dispatches an event with info about the parsed URL, which the wrapper is picking up and then calling a function in the timeline's API to make the necessary changes.

how to use SWFAddress within MCs? All the tutorials I find seem to use the maintimeline, but I need to know how to make it work within multilevel mc's, dynamicly loaded in. Ive got a working code but this one is static.

Above is the webstie in question. When you hit the Benefit button for example it takes you to a url /benefits.html/.
When I originally created the flash project I accidentally wrote in the url with the finishing slash. Now that I have gone back and removed the slash from my project, saved and uploaded .swf to my web, the project still redirects to benefits.html/
I'd rather see the numeral zero displayed with a slash through it when I'm writing ActionScript. Right now Flash defaults to Lucida Console. Rather than test the dozens of other fonts, can someone recommend several that display zero in the slash style?

For the life of me I can't work out how to replace a "/" character in a string!? Using the standard myString.split("/").join("-"); does absolutly nothing to the string. I've heard the odd story of adding double slash ie. split("//") but that has no effect either.
View 1 RepliesFor some really dumb reasons, I must support IE6 in the project I'm currently working on (think multi-paged microsite). I have SWFaddress, now, worked into my navigation system, and it is working as expected in chrome and FF.
When I get into IE6 I am having the following problem:
The "browser URL Update" phase of the SWFAddress.setValue -> SWFaddressEvent.Change
cycle fails to function, except when the mouse cursor leaves the SWF frame. When the mouse leaves the frame, SWFaddress history gets updated as expected and the browser navigation buttons function as expected.
But if the mouse cursor stays within the swf, none of this happens, and any stateChanges are skipped by the browser buttons.
Hello all.
Having a hard time getting info on SWFADDRESS so I thought I'd try here as Kirupa has saved my butt in the past.
So my question is this.
I am trying to attach a variable to the end of my SWFADDRESS url but can't get it to register. I can get it working fine using SWFOBJECT like so
http://website.com?Var=1&Var2=2
but once I add the deeplinking I can't get any results.
http://website.com/#/Home/?Var=1&Var2=2
or
http://website.com/#/Home?Var=1&Var2=2
My code in the html is :
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
// <![CDATA[
var so = new SWFObject('Example', 'website', '800px', '600px', '8');
so.useExpressInstall('swfobject/expressinstall.swf');
so.addVariable("Var", getQueryParamValue("Var"));
so.addVariable("Var2", getQueryParamValue("Var2"));
so.addParam("wmode","transparent");
so.write("flashcontent");
// ]]>
</script>
Anyone have a way around this or a good source for SWFADDRESS help?
Would really help me out!
Cheers

Am successfully using swfaddress and love it. For the first time though I'm trying to implement it on a site that has a load bar. The issue is if I use the browser's back button I'll eventually get to a page that just shows the full loadbar and stops. It is the the page that I have labeled "$/". If I don't put that label on the first frame then other worse problems occur. [URL]...

I have created a menu with XML data. I have created a movieclip navigationMc this is placed on the first frame of the stage. Inside navigationMc I have another movieclip and named it as menuitems where I am calling the XML. I am calling a button from the library through linkage property called menuitem. I have another movieclip on the stage called pageContainerMC for loading external swfs. Now the script on the main stage - Frame 1 is:
stop();
this.pageContainerMC.loadMovie("assets/work/augmented-reality/augmented-reality.swf",2);
//
#include "SWFAddress.as"

The swf address shows on clicking the button but it doesn't load movie once you click back and forward button on the browser also it doesn't change the name of the title.
I have spent several days now trying to make SWFAddress 2.4 work. I followed very closely Lee's video, but I can't make it work. I get the site working, but I cannot make the deep linking nor the title change to work. I am using CS3 with AS 3.0 and SWFAddress 2.4. My PC has Vista Home Premium and I tested this on several browsers (IE, Safari, Opera, and Firefox).
Here is my html code:
Code: Select all<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml-transitional.dtd">
<html>
<head>
[Code].....
The FLA file is constructed the same way as in the video with 3 MC's which visibility I toggle based on which button is pressed. The trace() call in onChange displays correctly the value I am setting in each one of the button event listeners, however the url never changes and the back and forward buttons are never enabled.
i have been trying SEO to get it noticed. I came across Swfaddress and statemanager and decided to implement them. I have examined the sample files for both methords and decided i want to use SWFaddress (it works well with google analytics).My problem is that the examples of swfaddress use a frame based navigation and my site uses buttons which load the pages into a loader component via a preloader. Do you think it would be possible to use SWFaddress with my site?

I am using SWF address.
With my site where I am NOT using the function to go to fullscreen works just fine. The problem is that when I use the HTML of SWFAddress I can't get the fullscreen working.
I have used SWFAddress before on a timeline driven site but now I am trying to do all actionscript and it suddenly doesnt want to work.I am trying to use SWFAddress 2.4 and even got as desperate as to try using all my older files (old .as files, and .js files and even switch my AC Object to the swfobject.js) and it refuses to work.Below is a broken down quick version of what I am trying to do
Code:
import com.asual.SWFAddress.*;
contact_pg._visible = false;

on my site, each of the pages is its own swf loading onto the stage via an xml documentSimple enough.I've been pulling my hair trying to out how to get the linking and browser buttons working with this dynamic loadingrelevant code:XML code:

var settingsXML:XML;

I'm trying to get to grips with SWFaddress and struggling a littleJust trying to work out how to place the mc buttons into one movie clip.The code on the mc buttons is :
Code:
this.deepLink = '/about/';
this.onRelease = _parent.btnRelease;
[code]....
The example posted is somewhat limited and there's no meta tags based on the link, only the meta tags presented on loading the SWF. Clearly there has to be a post about getting custom meta tags based on each link (for massive applications like adobe video player) but I don't see any posts about it.
Now what I've done is used javascript to check the swfaddress information and return custom meta tags depending on the variables in the url. IE "index.php#/link1" returns
Code:<meta name="description" content="This is my webpage about getting a search engine to read meta tags for links in Flash"/>
Obviously this is probaly not going to work but I thought I'd give it a shot anyways.
Then I started thinking, what if I redirect the page if it's the first time someone is loading it? So if someone is loading the page I can grab "link1", redirect back to index.php and post info to dynamically generate the meta tags in the php file.
