I want to download a SWF file from an online Casino, but whatever I try I just can't get my hands on the SWF.
The site is [URL] if you click "Instant Play", you'll go to the casino, then from there choose any game. (I chose "Deck the Halls").
I've tried the usual SWF catches etc and have searched my cache like crazy, but theirs no sign of it. For those interested, I just want the artwork
I have a few buttons rigged up for downloading word.doc, mp3 etc
Problem is its opening the file rather than giving a download this file option.
The app itself will require some data from an online database to be downloaded and stored locally, so that the kiosk can be safely disconnected from the internet while running, and reconnected later to update its data.I'm currently trying to figure out the best way to do this. I figured that the data's easily enough loaded from a server-side PHP script and saved to a local SQLite database for offline usage, but I haven't been able to find any solid method of downloading and saving images. At least, not without using a save dialog.
View 1 RepliesSo I basically have used the fileReference class to allow the user to download a determined file if he wants to.
I use the file.download(URL) function and it works well.
However, the file is downloaded and saved to the hard drive using only the flash player. The browser is not aware of the download, and thus, if I want to show the progress of the download I'd have to make some progress bar myself. I know how to do it, but it would become really tedious and take too much UI space.
Isn't there a damn way in Flash to "send" a determined file to the browser so that it prompts the user to download it? It's an image file, so navigateToURL doesn't cut it since it will just display the image, both if I use a new tab or the current one.
I would like to know if there is any way to find out the destination path of the saved file using the download() method of the filereference class.Cos if that is possible then i could do navigateToURL(_path,_blank) to open that downloaded file in browser Or if there is any other way to do this i would like to know. [If any other thread exists please link to it which answers this]

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to download a zip file through Flash via a php file using this code:
FLASH:
getURL("download.php?filename=TheFileName.zip");
PHP:

Trouble is when I run Flash, the dialog box for the download just picks up the php file and not the zip file.
I have an FLV file but need to generate an SWF to then upload onto the internet (with a play/stop bar)
I have no idea how to do this. Is there a step by step I can access or can someone point me tell me where and what to do!!!! I have CS4
I understand that I need to have all the files in the same folder and then link them all in. I will be uploading onto the website (back of house html) is there a basic code that i can modify that will suit my needs?
Actually I donot have flash in my computer.So I want to see the swf of an fla file that is in my desktop. can we do this online?

View 7 RepliesI have a site that contains some videos that made by graphic designer , he also edit them now and then and add videos. I want to add text to the video that after X seconds at the bottom of the video that will show some text. For example: "Hosted by XXX". I cannot ask this from the designer because the text changes once a month and he will charge me for that work every time. This videos are in swf (flash) format. I need to do it online - while the page loaded or even asynchronously. My site it wrote in asp.net so this must be done(if it can) by asp.net or javascript.
View 3 RepliesI am using Papervision2 great white. I am also using imported 3D objects from maya exported as collada files. Now working in flash everything shows up fine and dandy, no problems. However when I upload it (every file actually, I never move anything just in case) the avatar im using, a van, doesnt show up at all. The other DAE files do because they arent using any textures. The van has a UV texture applied to it, so I'm assuming that's what screwing it up. I am working inside flash. I'm not using any external AS files.
var daeFile: DAE;
daeFile=new DAE;
daeFile.load("van2.dae");
var universe: DisplayObject3D;

Swf generated by class (shown below) brings in the noponies as3 accordion which all works ok locally. But when I put it online nothing is shown. I think it's something to do with the xml files but not too sure.[code]
View 2 RepliesI'm new to the community, and have decided to make an account because I'm probably going to be asking a few questions about the project I am currently working on. I am probably biting off more than I can chew with this, but I need something to work on, to keep myself occupied.
The first bump in the road that I came across, and I have searched far and wide for help with this, but had no luck finding anything for AS3.
I want to make an app that saves variables to a server, and then it able to load those variables, the next time it runs.
i have a flash (swf) file
i embedded it in an html page
the location is right
it works locally when i preview it in a browser
as soon as i upload it - it doesn't show up
here's the page: [URL]
here's the location of the swf file: [URL]
i've even tried relative vs. absolute links and nothing. i've tried firefox and safari. nothing.
i'm guessing this is some dumb simple thing, and hopefully it took you longer to read this than it will to type the answer.
i am embarrassed that i am not getting this but hey, it needs to be fixed and i'm sick of looking at it and trying to figure it out.
I have placed a FLV file in to my flash document, when I test it it plays fine, but when it upload it online the skin doesnt show up and I cant control the video.
View 1 RepliesWhat is the best free resource to use for the purpose of letting users view files (pdf) online without any option for them to download those files in any way? Flexpaper could be a solution but it is said here that:
Natively, FlexPaper does not protect PDFs from being printed or copied. It actually lacks options for doing so on the JavaScript front-end.However in its Commercial License (to take the branding off for 1 domain) contains a ReadOnly parameter to disable printing & copying.
N.B: I want to use php for scripting purpose.
I am trying to find the solution to loading a .txt from c:/ to my online swf.
View 2 RepliesI'm a teacher, and so animations are a God-send. However, the internet in my school can often be a little temperamental and so I like to download flash files, often embedding them into a PPT presentation.However, as of late, I've come across a few that I just can't seem to download. Please note that I am not after the credit for these files, or any way to edit them, I just want to be able to download them to show at my will, regardless of the internet working.The file that I'm currently struggling is a great animation on rocks and the rock cycle:

I can download the SWF, but it will do nothing but sit at "Loading: 1%"...Is it even possible to download this file?The same has been true of files over at eChalk - our school has a subscription, but again, if the internet plays up, no animations.
I have a client who wants some graphics to appear "coming onto the screen from the sides." They are flames, to be exact. She does not want them to just come in inside the "box" (stage). She wants them to appear coming in from the sides of the browser window. Is there a way to do this? That is, can you make graphics or movie clips that start off outside of the frame appear in the browser when the swf file is saved?
View 2 RepliesI have a very rudimentary Flash movie that I have created. Link here to a copy of the SWF file on my company's website:The movie appears to work all right in IE, but not in Firefox or Google Chrome.Here are the details:It's a leaderboard ad, and like I said, it's pretty basic. I have a simple motion tween, and then an incredibly looooooong series of nested movie clips that create the effect of a counter (like a rapidly rising jackpot).I'm not really hip with the intricacies of ActionScript, so I couldn't code something more elegant. The "counter" is supposed to represent an increasing amount of money that not using our services might cost a company.
Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, and ten thousands use a simple repeating movie clip. hundred thousands use one that is 10x as long, and so on. I had to stop at 1 millions, as the # of frames in between numbers was prohibitively long.i.e. there are 10 frames in between numbers for the hundred thousands place in the movie, 100 frames for millions, and 1,000 frames for millions.but, like I said, I'm a beginner at ActionScript.Thinking the problem might be due to the incredibly long movie clips, I removed the animations from some of the higher numbers from my movie, and this did not appear to affect whether it plays in Firefox or Chrome.
iv been having this problem with swf file iv created, it consist of images somewhat like a gallery. when played offline it works smoothly, navigating frame to frame / image by image. iv used AS3 to compose the animations in my flash file. now my problem is when its uploaded online, the swf is shown but once iv clicked on a link to proceed on showing the gallery it lags and continously loop when it should actualy stop on a frame and wait till the next button is clicked to procced to the next image. plus the animation iv added in doesn't seem to working at all.
View 1 Repliesi'm trying to access an aspx file which is online. it's suppose to give me an xml data that i will parse and display inside of flash... the wierd thing is this: using any variation of code (using xml, or loadvars) the file loads the xml file and works great from WITHIN the flash authoring environment (when using "test movie") BUT it doesn't work when i run the swf file from its local directory (explorer) or from within a browser. what and why is this?

View 2 RepliesBasically I created a flash site and uploaded it onto the server provider the client chose using cute ftp. That's all fine but now they want to add a link enabling the viewer to download a PDF straight to their desktop. As I can't upload a PDF file to the Flash library, was wondering if anyone had any tips on creating this function?

I have tried 2 different methods, both work until, like i said I bring it into IE. [code]...
View 1 RepliesI want my flash site to convert currency.Therefore I want it to get the currency rates from internet.At first, I wanted to do it by using web services but the one free I found : [URL] doesn't work properly So I decided to use another way by getting my rates from the
following RSS file :
[URL]
All is ok, I got the rates I am interested in by parsing the RSS .But all is ok when I am testing locally, when I put my file on my hosting server, the rates cannot be retrieved anymore, it looks as if there is a connection problem.
Is there a way to download a file with AS3 code from a server (other than creating a text hyperlink to be clicked), or is there a way to add a file to your library and then show it in you timeline. I am specifically referring to a .pdf file.
