I am calling a mailto: function like this below:
ActionScript Code:
on (release) {
getURL("mailto:myEmail@mysite.com", "_blank");
}
Now problem is, in IE it is opening a blank window too with outlook.
I have a button called bt07 and I would like when you click down this button to open an url in a blank_window (for exemple [URL]) I wrote this code below but I don t know how writting the code to open the url?
//mouse downbt07.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,auSurvolSurbt07);function auSurvolSurbt07(e:Event){bt01.gotoAndStop(1);bt02.gotoAndStop(1);bt03.gotoAndStop(1);bt04.gotoAndStop(1);bt05.gotoAndStop(1);bt06.gotoAndStop(1);bt07.gotoAndStop(2);

I want to send an email with special characters (like cyrillic) from a swf. To make sure it will be displayed correctly in the mail client, I use
encodeURI()
It works fine in Apple Mail, but in Outlook I only see gibberish. I learned that Outlook uses iso-8859-1 for "mailto:"-mails (at least by default). So two questions arise:
is there a way to encode the mailto: string in iso-8859-1? would this break the correct display of characters in other mail clients?
I am sure that the second question can not have a definitive answer, nevertheless I would be thankful for any advise.
EDIT: unfortunately, html email and php is not an option for me.
I have a flash code, in which i am loading images and opening urls through xml file, now it is opening in a different window(pop up window) but i want it to open in the same window.
var xmlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("XML/ImagesData01.xml");
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, xmlLoaded);
xmlLoader.load(xmlReq);

View 3 RepliesI am using AS3 on a website. Part of the AS has been setup by an external source and I ma now updating and adapting it. My knowledge of AS is limited but slowly expanding.
Currently the site is a main flash file with all the content delivered via a main.as file and then populated via images and videos held in folders on the web.
In one section we have an email link.
I was using Email[url]... and it worked fine. It launched the email program and put the email address in ready to go.
When I added the subject element as below[url]...
it now does what it should with the email program but it also opens a blank webpage.
What can I do to get rid of the blank web page opening?
Currently, mailto will close out the flash site and navigate to a browser-based email client. What I'd like it to do is open a new window which it would use to open the email client, instead of using the same window (which closes out the flash site to open the email client).
I tried:
getURL("mailto:emailAddy", "_blank");
CS3 Actionscript 2.0: I'm trying to get a nested movie clip to open the default mail app. on release. I used the on (release){ getURL("mailto:. which opens the mail window fine, but it also opens a blank browser window (Mac OS). Can someone tell me how to stop this from occurring?
I see this question crops up a lot but after many searches I haven't been able to find the solution anywhere. Forgive me, but I'm new to Flash/Actionscript. My script:

I am working in flash and php.. I want to write a text file from flash via php. The thing is when I click on button it rites and redirects to another page. I have stopped the re-direction. 2ndly I want that instead of on click of button I want the variables to be passed to php and write a text file when a frame is loaded. Its basically a gallery, where images are loaded one after another. I want that when one image is loaded via xml. It should write a text file with Hit = 1, so that I know that the image is viewed. All things is working fine, except when I use GetURl on loading the image a new window opens( blank) and my flash file goes off.. Is there any way to stop a blank page opening.
View 2 RepliesIs it possible to add a attachment to a mail with the mailto function in actionscript 3? Thats the thing, i want to open the default mail program compose window with some data but i also need to add a file as attachment, and that file must be a screen capture of the app.

Looks like the attachment=path/to/file dont work anymore in new email clients, i think it worked until outlook 97 then it was removed for security reasons and so now is imposible to do this anymore.

I've just finished working on an extensive HD intro for my website, which is in 1280x720 resolution.
At the moment, my site has a splash page with 3 buttons on it:
B1) opens the site in fullscreen mode
B2) opens the site in normal window mode
B3) opens a new browser window linking to my intro
Here's the AS code I'm using for my intro button:
Actionscript Code:
intro_btn.onRelease = function() {
getURL("[URL]", "_blank");};
I'm wondering if there is a way to somehow specify in that code segment what dimensions I'd like the new window to have? I know this can be accomplished in JavaScript with something like this:
Actionscript Code:
<a href="javascript:void(0)"onclick="window.open('[URL]','height=1280, width=720,scrollbars=no')">intro</a>
I've already tried putting the intro on it's own separate HTML page, but because of resolution and other background contrast issues, I've found that it undoubtedly looks best in a window that is resized to its specific dimensions, rather than having extra space around the edges, top, and bottom.
I have some script I am using for a flash menu. Each button opens to the html file and has script telling each page the down state for each button when clicked. I am trying to use the function below to open a new window and it won't work with the other scripting.

Whenever I am trying to open a swf file (any swf file) or test a movie from the flash ide the internal player is blank and output has the msg error opening url "the path of the swf file here".This is not a problem that has to do with loading external files etc. It just refuses to open any swf file and ofc or test any movie cause it keeps saying error in opening url even in blank movies.
The simplest thing New File -> AS3 -> Test Movie -> Error in opening url I can publish the movie with no problem at all and I can run all the swf files outside of flash ide. I can debug movie from flash ide. I can html preview it from flash ide but i can't just hit cmd+enter to test the fraking movie.
has anyone ever had a situation where the flash CS4 Output window is blank; it should have several trace statements, and at least 1 error; furthermore the Compiler Errors window is blank; I know there is an error some where ( I updated my papervision3d yesterday ), so I should see some error messages, and the trace statements - but everything is blank;

I've got a .fla file, with 3 scenes in it. In the 3rd scene, there's a button which upon clicking it, should open a new window showing a external .swf file. Both files are placed in the same folder.
Now.. I'm able to open the .swf file in a browser, but what im trying to do, is open it in flash player. How the *#@%*#@ am i supposed to that? :P
Oh yeah, i should probably mention that the external .swf file also has mulitple scenes and buttons. And both "movies" should still be interactable when i open the new window.
I can't seem to get the buttons I have created in flash to open in the same window.. I've tried
1. leaving it with no target
2. on (release) {
getURL("[URL]");
targetPath("_self")
}
3. on (release) {
getURL("[URL]", "_self");
}
im having no luck with this at all. im building a site for my company, building and selling homes. ive made a website in flash, nothing too complex, ive also made a pdf in indesing, which when published left me put a page turing feature on it, and that pdf was then published as a swf file. its put all the code in for me automatically so the people can now interact and page turn it.i simply want a button/link i can put on my site to open this swf in its own browser window or in a flash player window. this code in previous versions of flash has been easy...on release etc but now with as 3.0 i see people using child, navigatetourl, its so confusing and every example ive found just doesnt seem to work

I'm primarily an HTML/CSS girl. I'm pretty new to Flash, and until recently have only worked from the timeline without using any action script other than stop(); and simple goto commands like gotoAndPlay(49);
This week, I needed a nav button to take the user into the site from the Flash intro; it's live at [URL]
Flash CS4, Action Script 3. Since I don't write Action Script - yet - and needed the link in a hurry, I Googled for the code. As you can see, it works fine, but the site opens in a new window, and I don't want it to do that, I want it in the same window.
The code is as follows:
clickToEnter.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);
function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.deppimpersonator.com/cms"));
}
I thought it might be the use of "new" in front of URLRequest, but of course when I took that out the link didn't work at all.
Blind experimentation produced two attempts that simply broke the link (don't laugh ):

What do I need to add (or remove) from this code? And is this the most efficient way to code an internal link?
In case this is browser-specific: I've only tested this in the latest versions of Firefox and Safari for Mac, OS X 10.6.2 (Snowleopard). It's the same in both browsers.
I'm working on a portfolio in Flash CS3 and AS3. I'm trying to avoid doing the whole thing in Flash, so the home page is a CSS/HTML header page that will house a looping flash piece underneath the header, and the inner portfolio will be flash pieces brought into the same CSS header framework.I'd like to know what kind of code I need to use in the portolio flash navigation so that the "home" link will open the CSS/HTML home page in its same window, rather than launching another window. Is this something that can be done using AS3, or do I need javascrpt as well?
