I want to record to a XML document everytime a user loads a .swf. Simply just increase the number in the XML document by 1. The issue tho is i'm limited to the server side scripting thats available. No asp, no php, only JSP. Client side scripting(javascript,etc) would be perfectly acceptable as well.Is actionscript capable of writing to a xml file and producing the results i'm aiming for?

View 2 RepliesI am new to CS5 and i'm wondering how to make a flash banner play only once for the visitor. My home page has a search engine and every time the search the result will display with the banner playing again. this is the same for navigating through pages. I want the banner to stay on the last frame. its not looping, its just replaying everytime i navigate.
View 1 RepliesI'm currently working on a portfolio-website in Flash CS5. Everything is good so far,but my only problem is the image gallary. My idea is that when the visitor moves the mouse over one of the images, a hover effect will activate - which is does. The only problem now is that I can't get the images to show in a big format when you click on each of them, for a better view of the image.[URL]..

View 6 RepliesI have an intro in flash to go to an html/css site. What I have right now is when the image is clicked on it jumps to a scene and plays the animation and that's it. What I don't know is the scripting afterward. I need to know what the script is to allow it automatically forward the visitor to the html site after the animation plays. The intro page is on its own page.Right now my code is on frame 1 and this is it:
Code:
stop();
import flash.events.MouseEvent;

I am trying to build an online teach tool that shows a presentation/slideshow. It needs to have the ability to track and make sure users are staying through the whole process. The client used this example to show me what they were looking for visually:[URL] Now, I let them know that with a flash video, there would really be no way to do any sort of tracking. What I envision is creating a multi page slideshow which has you click next for the next page. This "next" button would use some sort of javascript to enable the next button after a specified amount of time. A person would be logged in during this, so every-time the person moves on to next slide, I would track their process in the database. My question is, is there any better ways to do this tracking. Also, doing simple animations like cursor movements etc, can really only be accomplished well by using flash I assume? They mentioned using voice over etc.
View 1 RepliesI'm currently building a project where I have a map, the map has individual pieces (cities) where the user can rollover with the cursor on each city.To be able to do that, I saved each city as png with background transparency, however, when I import to flash and make it active, the city stays a png with the transparency but becomes a square, which means that when the user rollover the transparent square part activates it.What I need is to know how to use only the form of the city in flash.

View 2 RepliesI have a bunch of movieclips with instance name like "newYorkCity", "sanFrancisco", etc. How do I parse a string to go from "newYorkCity" to become "New York City". I think it is possible to do this. I was looking in the flash help int he section "Finding substrings and patterns in strings" but this section seems really confusing to me.
View 3 RepliesFlash is not in my toolset, but I am an old Director jock and have spent some hours dipping my head into the Flash manual. I suppose that makes me a promising beginner-level poster. I'm working in CS5.
I need to make a simple Flash-based sound player for a website for a newly-released novel (http://www.bearriverbooks.com/index.html). I want the user to click on what appears to be an icon (or image), which kicks open a simple controller and starts playing a sound file (a radio interview, which I will probably export using Flash's voice compression). Nothing fancy. Just want the visitor to hear the sound and be able to apply simple controls (stop/start/rewind/volume).
I can learn ActionScript, I suppose, since I used to dream in Lingo, but my life would be a lot simpler if I could just publish a controller without having to roll my own. I'd like to think there's a magic button somewhere that can do this, but I haven't found it yet.
Is there a reason why an xml file would not display in certain Macs. follow this link and view the gallery section and thats where the problem apparently in happening.

I have been searching the forum and also the Internet how to display the special characters such as &, +, < > from db using ASP and Flash. Unfortunately I am not able to find the correct solution yet. I have tried "System.useCodepage = false;" in flash and also use the following in my loading asp file
Code:
response.write "data1=" & Server.HTMLEncode(rs("data1")) & "&" &"data2=" & Server.HTMLEncode(rs("data2")) & "&" &"data3=" & rs("data3") & "&"
Whenever I typed the "&" on flash input text, it will be saved on DB but when I load the text back to flash, whatever text that is after the "&" is gone.
