I am trying to making a scroller, which is with 9 surgeons(all are doing there animations). Now they all are loading from outside to the scroller movieclip.
ANd its take time while loading..
Meanwhile I also want the other surgeons which having voice converstaion load in browser cahce..So when user clcik on the surgeon link the swf loaded in browser run fast or load fast.
I notice that games on facebook area caching lot's of swf files in browser temporary folder, I'm wondering how this is done, I'm new to web techs.
View 3 RepliesIf I am on a flash heavy website, and I clear my browser cache, the site continues to function. Chances are the entire swf is not loaded into flash's active memory at the time I clear the browser cache (especially for sites that use large rsl libraries such as papervision3d). I can verify this with flash-builder's profiling tools. So, where are the swf libraries kept on disk (or in memory somewhere else?) which allow the site to continue to function?
View 4 RepliesI have an external SWF which i load into my main SWF with URLloader.... that external SWF includes several FLV-movies. I´m not sure how they have been imported to that SWF, probably with FLV component.... but I´m not sure and I don´t have any idea of possible instance names either.....
My question is that can I still create a preloader that would load all used FLV-files into a cache, my goal is that user could start watching videos directly after pushing play button, without need to wait any buffering...
I know all the names and URLs of those FLV-files if that helps..I´m looking for actionscript 3 solution for my main SWF but if someone knows the way to do it with html-wrapper, that would do as well (I´m using SWFobject for html-wrapper)
This question is more about updating swf and xml files on the browser. I have a gallery site that has muliple swf files loaded on the master swf on button click. These swf files loads an xml file. My problem is that whenever I update the xml or swf file, the browser still has the flash cache stored so I have to manually refresh the file to see the changes. As in, I can't just refresh the index.html. I have to refresh the
/xml/filename.xml or /flash/filename.swf
Which works but then when other people view the site again, they won't know that they have to refresh the files because they don't know the file name or path. Know what I mean? I researched the net and found solutions like using index.php instead of html or using a random variable string like index.php?mod="34342234" but that only seems to update the master swf.
i have around 50 swf files , example. main.swf,about.swf, services.swf, products.swf...... etc
main.swf is my 1st file which i embedded in index.html by using actionscript 2.0 dynamically i am loading the external files ( which is about.swf, sevices.swf.. ) whenever i click a specific button it loads a specific swf file. which works perfectly fine with me. but it gets really annoying each time i have to load the files and wait for the files to get loaded. i wanted a javascript or actionscript code which will load all my external swf files invisibly in the cache of the browser while browsing the website. So that whenever i click a button its load instantly without waiting to load again.
for further reference i have seen this kind of work in [URL]
I am trying to load an image in Flex from different places, and the image always loads from server again and again.Is there any way to load the image from browser cache?
View 1 RepliesThe client-side application is a Flex application and communicate with server-side java application using blazeds.As you know,most browsers don't cache SWFs loaded over https,but i want load the swfs through http so that the client brower can cache them and communicate with the server-side over https ?
View 2 RepliesIs there way to get the browser to always load any swf files before everything else on a page (exept the external css and swfobject.js). Using Firebug's Net statistics I can see the swf files generally load last.
We have all our external js files inserted at the bottom of the page to help loading times.
I am making a swf of surgons.. which going to load in a base moviclip and they scroll ther right left. The problem is its taking to much time so I want a script which will load one by one these files.
Or
A script to load other swf(of surgeons) in browser cache. So when user click on these surgeon they start their work. The voice swf of surgeons. I want meanwhile they load in browser cahce..so its not take time.
preLoad the browser Cache? I have 3 SWfs which I will load and unload into movieclips as needed (for good memory management). But, I'd love to preload the browser cache (not my main movie) with all 3 so that when I do load them, they load quickly. I don't want to load and unload them from my main movie, as that bogs down the movie. Is there a way to get the browser to pre-load them?

View 1 RepliesI've noticed that some flash content does not get into a browsers' cache and some does. I tried it with many different flash sites and flash games. Games can usually be easily retrieved from the browser's cache and then decompiled, which is not good for their developer but I can't say the same about many flash sites (not all of course).
how to protect my flash content from being put into a browser's cache folder?
I have a flex application about 2M need to send to browser, so I want the browser to reserve the file in cache forever unless I upgrade the version. I have set the ETAG and last-modified tag in http reponse header, but sometimes, when the user click the refresh, the swf file still be reloaded. So what http response header can I use to reserve the file in browser cache forever?
View 1 RepliesI have an AS3 application that loads various SWFs at runtime. The loading animation that is being used has a fairly long in and out animation that I don't want to show if the target SWF is in the browser cache.So at the moment each SWF is loaded in as required using Greensock's SWFLoader in a basic manner:
var context:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext();
context.applicationDomain = ApplicationDomain.currentDomain;
loader = new SWFLoader("mySWF.swf",

I have a bunch of flvs that I want to play seamlessly. I figured the safest way to ensure a seamless playback was to preload the files first using a class called bulkloader. Once they have all loaded I start using the flvplayback component with .load() on mulitple vp depths.
My reasoning was the second time the flv file is requested (through the flvplayback.load method) it has already been cached in the browser cached from the previous call so it will be pretty much instant. When I test this with Charles proxy (throttled but with caching allowed it makes two calls for each flv and both are requested from the server ignoring any caching.
I wonder if there is a special case where flv's don't get cached. The bulkloader class uses a netstream object to download the video and I wonder if that has different behaviour to a loader object when it comes to caching.
Is there a way to set up a method to clean browser cache every time user visit your website?
View 5 RepliesHow do I go about preloading a swf into the browsers cache, but not into the preloader movie? There are a ton of flash sites out there that preload a movie and when the loading is finished have an "enter" button. That enter button sometimes launches a new window with the already loaded swf. How is that done?
View 2 RepliesHow the browser caches .swf and it's content? For example, if I have an image slideshow that load data specified in XML on the domain, will it be cached for access if the same swf is used on the domain or does it have to be re-cached?
View 2 RepliesFlash CS4 using AS 2.0 for this.
Here's a simple problem I am having. I have a website made up from multiple swfs. Which open up over the index swf.
What I need to do is load 4 swf files into the memory so the transition between the page loads is smooth. The swfs are only a few kb in size but the delay in loading these (1 second) makes the transitions look very untidy. Once i've clicked on every section then the flashplayer has them stored in the cache so they run smooth, is there anyway just to load these in before the start page has loaded.

I've got a parent SWF that loads in a couple child SWFs. Even though my browser cache is cleared -- it's disabled, in fact -- reloading, or even restarting, the browser doesn't trigger the newest version of the child SWFs to load into the parent SWF. I can even delete the SWF off the FTP server, and it still gives me the last version that was up there.
What's caching the child SWFs, and how do I force them to refresh on my end? I'm not too concerned about the end user, because once the site development is over, the SWF files won't change very often. (They're all loading in XML files that have the cache disabled via PHP cache control and expires headers.)
I'm primarily using Firefox on PC and Mac, but it seems to do the same thing on IE/PC and Safari/Mac. The PC is using my ISP's DNS, and the Mac is using OpenDNS... not sure if that has anything to do with it. The site is hosted on Rackspace Cloud.
Been trying to clear browser cache for the past hour, tried almost everything on google and also went Tools>Net options and cleared it. Yet everytime I load the website it shows the old version.

View 1 RepliesI have an Flex app that loads xml files with URLLoader/URLRequest methods, and works perfectly. The problem is that the .xml files are stored in "Temporary Internet Files" folder of the browser, and we dont want that the user can open or read those .xml files. Do you know any way to prevent that xml files are stored in the user browser cache folder? or any alternative way to load the data of the xml files, or read it directly from the server?
View 6 RepliesI have a media player, which rotates images for the artist it plays. I load the images dynamically into the flash. The flash downloads the same images from the server over and over, how can i cache the images, so flash grabs them from a local cache and not from the server?
View 2 RepliesI make a swf for my site that includes dynamicly loading thumbnails from an xml file. Unfotunatly the browser ( IE and FF are what i have tried so far ) just takes the xml file from the clients browser cache even if i have changed the xml file on the server. So the only way my visitors will see my updated content, is if they clear their cache every time before they visit my site. ( even a ctrl-f5 does not seem to do the trick )
is there a function or something i can call to force the swf to re-download the xml file every time? (is really small, less that a kilobyte or two im sure.)
I would like a Flash application to remember the settings that a user on a specific machine or specific browser has earlier set. This is possible, right? What's the most neat way of doing this? Using some kind of a flash cache?
View 3 RepliesI've uploaded my slideshow swf to my WIP website (CSS files got overwritten ) Everything is working great. It's looping, I have a preloader animation, ect. The problem I now want to resolve is getting the loader to cache the image files. When the slideshow is told to go back to image[0], it reloads it again. As the whole point of this project was to work around my free web hosting's bandwidth limits, as well as getting more experience working with XML, this simply wont do. Imagine if someone browsing my site left the main page running for a few hours! What I need it to do is to somehow force the browser to cache the images once they are loaded, or at least I think this is what I need to do? Here's the code again:
Code:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;

I am downloading large files in the browser using a swf coded in as3 that makes byte range http requests (using http:url....).This lets me download the files in chunks.Is it possible to manually cache the file byte ranges to the browser cache so that I can prevent wasting bandwidth if the client has already downloaded a portion of the file on the next visit? This would essentially be a "resume download" feature.
From what I can find on adobe livedocs, flash player will not allow this because of security issues. I just wanted to double check and see if anyone knew a way to do this
