ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash Not Embedding Apostrophe?
Mar 31, 2009
i'm loading an external xml file into my main movie and formatting it with embedded fonts. everything works great, dashes , parenthesis, commas, except for one thing. flash will not embed an apostrophe, instead of an apostrophe i get the following: &apos. so if i were to write inhabitant's in my xml document, when the flash file is published i get inhabitant's.
im using a standard font, gill sans MT, that i know has an apostrophe.

I just made an artwork that uses dynamic text and I'm unable to use quotation marks or apostrophes because it breaks up the string being used for the AS3 script I'm using. Anyone know how I might be able to overcome this? Here's the code I'm using and I'd like an apostrophe between We + ll and quotation marks around the whole thing:[code]

So far, everything works well, but I am having problems getting curly apostrophes to display (�) instead I get a blank where the apostrophe is in my XML file. If I use a straight apostrophe (') it works but I can't get the curly apostrophe to work.What am I doing wrong? I looked up the unicode range for apostrophe and it's U-0027 which I appear to have in the ranges specified above...

I am trying to embedd two slideshows into my flash file.I already managed to integrate one, but I can't integrate another since my knowledge of actionscript is very limited. For people that know Flash well it is a really easy question. What do I have to rename in this script so that I can create a second slideshow, without always calling on the first one.Here is the script for the first slideshow:(I got it from the website where I bought the template for the slideshow from)
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
var monoslideshow:Object;
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.CO MPLETE, onLoadComplete);

For a site I'm using Flowplayer and the Overlay tool from jQuery Tools, to show video. Within windows everything is fine in the main three browsers: IE7/8/9, Firefox and Chrome. Within OS X (Snow leopard), the problems begin: A click in the video, anywhere, causes a reload. This is the case for the three browsers Safari, Firefox and Chrome (Not in Chrome 12.0.742.53 beta ???) Giving the embeded player the property wmode = 'opaque' or wmode = 'transparent' results in the same situation on the windows platform, but only Firefox en Chrome browsers. Not in IE. So wmode is really bugging me... documentation on wmode ? I can't find anything suitable

I know that the common misconception with embedding SWFs on secure pages is that people always try to embed it using a non-secure link. This isn't the case, as I am trying to host the SWF and swfobject.js locally using relative paths to account for the use of SSL.
It appears that the first of these players (under ssl) will play the audio playback, but won't display the video, while the second one will render the entire SWF fine.
Here are 2 examples that are EXTREMELY similiar. Unfortunately I can only post 2 hyperlinks, so you'll have to swap the http: protocol with https: to see how each player renders under SSL.
These 2 players are using 2 different SWF's, so I'm lead to believe it's a Flash/ActionScript issue, but I have failed to isolate it.
Example 1
Non-secure working embed
Example 2
Non-secure working embed

I'm using Flash CS5 and I have a problem with my exported SWF file: it's over 100kb in size. I have 2 vectorial symbols and 4 dynamic text with embed Calibri font boxes which are displaying information from an external XML file. These text boxes are the ones which are generating the most size of my swf file. I need to cut down somewhere, I've searched but I haven't came across a "best practices guide to embedding fonts in a flash file". I find it hard to believe that if you only embed alphanumerical characters of 1 single font your file size reaches >100kb..

I have a flash swf file that displays some training information that must go out to about ten thousand people in our organisation. Maybe only 70% of people have the flash player installed on their work PC's and IT have the systems locked down so tight this remaining 30% can not install flash player themselves. Flash is only rolled out with new PC's.

I wanted to know if there is a way to embed a pdf file into a flash document to be downloaded by the customer. I want them to be able to click on the thumbnail version of the file to start the download of the high res version of that file. I am making an interactive cd so the files would be stored on the cd itself. I know I could do it by storing the files on the internet but I would like to keep everything local

Is there a way to create embedded "pure as3" swf fonts using compc (without the flex framework integration)? If I embed a font like this in my as3:
package fonts
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.text.Font;
[Code].....
which prevents me from using the embedded font in "pure as3" projects. Is there a way to get flex-free fonts using compc?

The issue I am having is creating an application with nearly every component skinned using CSS. The majority of the components are skinned using:Embed(source="file.png");method. The problem I am running into, is flex trying to compile all of the embedded assets into the final swf. As it stands now, my compiled swf stands around 16mb!@@ OUCH. It is a very large application, but not that big. Any ideas on how to load the assets into the application at run time, or on request maybe?

style="width: 445px; height: 386px"
white strips are embedding sideways automaticaaly,,while using the same page with size

I was wondering if there is someway to embed a Flash Shockwave Object or .SWF file in PowerPoint (Presentation) 2007 and higher version, i.e. inside the ".pptx" format. By embed I mean when I save the presentation,close it . i wont be needing the the .swf file again. That way I can share the presentations with others.
If I use this link Insert-Flash-Into-PowerPoint-2007,it works but when I save and
close the presentation, the swf file doesn;t get embeded. (Note: If i do the same with a .ppt file, it works correctly)
I know we can embed the swf inside PowerPoint presentation version 2003, i.e. the ".ppt" format. but couldn't do the same in .pptx format.
Also is it possible to embed .swf file in .pptx using Open XML format? I tried to rename the ".pptx" file to ".zip" and added the ".swf" in media folder and then renamed it back to ".pptx", but when opened in PowerPoint, it gave an error about unreadable content or corruption.
I had read somewhere that its kind of strategy from MS not to provide this kind of support for Adobe SWF file / ActiveX object and as of now the feature is not supported. Flashppt PPTX Embed not supported
I tried the same with Office 2010 and still the same result. It doesn't work.

I'm loading a toolbar that goes over the content of a website that is reviewed. The toolbar has some information we can fill in about the website we're reviewing. There is a problem when there's flash embedded in the original page. Our toolbar will show up behind the flash movie, so we can't use the toolbar as intended. Since we don't have control over the page that is loaded we can not alter the settings of the embedded video.
The question is: how can we make the DIV appear floating above the FLASH even though we don't have control over the embedded flash object?
