I have this preloader code that should not play frame 3 until it is all loaded, but for some reason while my prelaoder bar is showing progess, frame 3 is already loaded.

We're putting together one of those "greeting spokesperson" videos for our website. The video is about 30 seconds long, and on the first load, it always disappears in the middle of a sentence. Refresh the page, and it works fine thereafter. The video plays through a FLV Player inside a SWF. The SWF is 695 frames long and has the following characteristics: 'fade-out' alpha tween starting at Frame 685A Stop action at the very last frameThe following code on the FLV player:
on (complete) {
getURL('javascript:removeIt();'); }
I have uploaded an .swf file to my site but when I embed it into my site page it won't play all the way through, it just freezes about half way. But the same .swf file will play fine in Flash.. I am using a content management system called Teamsite.
This file is not especially large only 377KB, I have tried removing images to reduce the size down to 96KB and it will still freeze. The file is just rotating images and uses no fancy effects just a simple fade.
i'm attempting to draw lines beside each other, but the last line from the first color group takes on the color from the second color group before the second color is assigned.

My application has a tree with a custom item renderer, which depending on the type of data at a leaf uses different components as editors. In one case I am trying to use a datagrid so that the user can choose a row that meets his needs (several columns need to be displayed), ie. similar in concept to a ComboBox.To do this I have a function assigned to be the handler for 'itemEditBegin' (for the tree) in which I'm dynamically creating the datagrid, and then using the popup manager to display it as a (modal) popup. So far so good.
However, if you click anywhere (eg. scroll down button in the datagrid) the popup disappears because the itemEditEnd event is fired - why ?In another scenario, I have a DateField setup as the editor, and the user can click on the icon to bring up a DateChooser, scroll through the months, etc. I looked at the code behind this, and it is using a popup, seemingly in exactly the same way as my code !Here is the 'itemEditBegin' code:
dataGrid = new DataGrid();
dataGrid.dataProvider = mddTable.dataCollection;
dataGrid.editable = false;

I have a function which is meant to check a variable called basetemp against a variable called newtemp and, if they are not the same, change basetemp until they are. It does this in increments of 0.1, and neither value ever adds or subtracts fractions smaller than that.The code responsible for this function looks like this:
Code:
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(counter < 1){

I'm using swfupload to upload files to nginx. It works fine for me & 99% of our users.For a couple of users, however, it fails somehow during upload. It opens a connection, but seems to close it before it's complete - nginx reports a 499 status in its access log, which is NGX_ HTTP_ CLIENT_CLOSED_REQUEST.I managed to get hold of one of those users to get some more information. They're running Flash 10.0.42, on XP with Firefox 3.5.7.Has anyone seen anything like this? Any suggestions on fixing it / how I might investigate further?
View 3 Replieshow do I stop the preloader to LOAD an item when I click in another item to load.. Is that possible? Here in my example the preloader runs perfect, but when I start another mouseevent CLICK the old loading still active (on BANDWIDTH PROFILER, but the Preloader Movie Clip is removed).. How Do I stop the event when another different loading starts?Not visual aspect but functional.
View 1 RepliesI want to load a preloader (call it "target app") into my own Flash application (call it "hosting app") via Loader. The target app loads like a typical preloader several other SWF files via relative paths and starts the target app.
If the hosting app and the target app are residing in the same directory everything works fine. If the opposite is the case (target app not in the same directory as hosting app) the target app is not able to find the SWF files it has to load.

i have my preloader as my first scene in my website and when i preview it, it still loads the whole .swf file , and so all you see is a blank screen for 2 min - how do i get the preloader to load?

View 2 RepliesI have a guestion about preloaders. Every preloader that is available on the web loads the entire .SWF.But I want the preloader to load a specific mc. So that the .SWF will run as soon as that specific mc is loaded.
in addition: Is it possible to have an mc in the .SWF that will only load when the user pushes a button?
I have my main swf file and two external swf files i'm trying to load into the main one. I have preloaders for each external swf file but when I have the main swf file it won't load the preloaders it seems to be loading the entire thing and then showing the swf. How do i change that to showing the preloaders i already have? here is my code at the beginning on each external swf,

I have a preloader and I want it to load each section when called with this code:
Callback function:
caps_mc.btn_continue_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nextpls);
function nextpls(e:MouseEvent):void {
MovieClip(parent.parent).nextSWF("startPage", parent);}
The code above tells the preloader that it is finished with the startPage and in the preloader it should next load faq, but I get an error saying that nextSWF is not a function when it clearly is, Is it even possible to use a preloader to load up swfs in this way??
Preloader:
import flash.display.*;import flash.events.*;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
var loadedSWF:Loadervar progressPercent:Number;
function startLoad(SWFName:String):void { loadedSWF = new Loader(); loadedSWF.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, gameLoaded);

Here is the error:
TypeError: Error #1006: nextSWF is not a function. at startPages_fla::MainTimeline/nextpls()[startPages_fla.MainTimeline::frame1:7]
I am trying to build a website with a preview window to display pieces of work when you click on a thumbnail. Each piece of work will be it's own swf, because there will be several images to show in each example, and I want to have a cool blur/fade in and out of each, and I want it to loop.
Anyway, I am trying to figure out how to load the swf into a "preview box", and have a preloader calculating the size and all that. So when you click a button, depending on the size of the external swf, the preloader will pop up and on completion, the swf will load. Not sure where to put the preloader code or where I should put the preloader in the first place.
I need to load external swf's into a gallery. But for some reason I can't picture how to set it up on the timeline. This is for college homework.
I have the entire gallery set up and working but I just don't have the preloader for the three external images. However, I do have a preloader working fine for the site itself.
Here's the code for the external swf's:
ActionScript Code:
loader.load(new URLRequest("1.swf"));
var movieName:String;
[Code]....
basically done creating this flash file, is just for some reason the preloader doesn't appear until 80% load..

I have a preloader that I downloaded... What I want to do is have this load only a certain percentage of the move before it continues to play the file.I assume that I have to edit the line of code that gets the total amount of bytes for the file itself... expressed below:
Code: Select alltotal = this.getBytesTotal(); // Movie Length
Since the variable is 'total' how do I make it load only 25% then start? I
Code: Select alltotal = this.getBytesTotal(25); // Movie Length ?
Code: Select alltotal = this.getBytesTotal() * .25; // Movie Length ?

View 2 RepliesI work for the NPS, and they have an outdated CMS. I have no rights to upload an .html file, or edit one that the CMS makes. SO, I am forced to use their little deal to display my .swf files. url...I made an eHike in as3 Flash CS4. It has two scenes, the first scene is the preload, second is splash content and ehike content. The problem is I cant get the preloader to display in IE. I have all actionscript content exported to the second frame, as talked about here:[code]I have tried many different ways to load the preloader.there is a simple text field for the percentage, and a simple 100 frame animation. preloader_mc.[code]The CMS lets you decide in the popup window if it is resizeable or not. This works in IE (stopping people from resizing), but not in firefox, people can resize it. Is there any way to disable the resize in AS3? Again, I understand that your supposed to export the .html file with these settings, but I have no permissions to upload or create new .html files.

View 14 RepliesI have an image gallery that I made with this tutorial (AS3 Photo Viewer Tutorial), and I'm trying to get an external preloader to load it. The only tweaks I've made to the tutorial file have been to change the stage size, and change the name and contents of the xml file.The preloader, which uses something I downloaded from preloaderz, worked with another, simpler swf, but when I try it with this one, I get
Quote:TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at PhotoViewer()
I don't know why this won't work. Another thing I don't quite get is how the .as file is attached, because the PhotoViewer.fla file appears to be blank, with nothing I can see in the timeline/ stage, or in the actionscript. Before trying the external preloader, I tried adding one to PhotoViewer.fla, using script from the ActionScript 3 Classroom in a book, which worked in their lesson file, but not with this file. I also tried moving the script to the .as file, but that didn't work either.I'm using Flash CS4. If all else fails, I might have to try a simpler image gallery, that would hopefully work with a preloader, but I like how this one looks.
I would like a button to create a preloader and load a swf file.this is what i wrote in AS.it tells me that script is ok so I'm not sure what is the problem.
photo.onRelease = function() {
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("bar", 2);
bar._x = 400;[code]............
The script is in the frame, not on a button
this is the code of my preloader:
ActionScript Code:
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, progressHandler);
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
loader.load(new URLRequest("Solar.swf"));
[Code]....
When i test the movie the background image is loaded, but when i simulate the download ( so as to check how the preloader works ) the image "NightSky.jpg" doesn't load and there is an error in the output panel.
This is the error:
Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2036: Load Never Completed.
All the files and the image are in the same file on my computer.
