I'm having big problems trying to get a blog style swf to load with in my main swf.
The blog swf is at [URL] . It is based on a [URL]
The full page is here :[URL]
The links in the archive section work perfectly well when just viewing the swf, but when loaded as an external movie in the site swf they dont work at all.
I am trying to make a blog roll program that will put the titles of a client's blog on their homepage. i ran through a tutorial that got most of it working, but when i went to move from the tutorial to the client's program, i started running into some errors. since i have no idea what they mean, i can't even begin to figure out what is causing them.

View 2 RepliesI am pulling double duty with this question as it serves two purposes. I am developing a total flash controlled ad system for myself, but also need to use the same theory for a project for work.
Concept: I have a main movie (ad rotator system) that I then want to randomly load other swf's (individual ads) into this main swf after a set period of time. The random load I got set no problem. The problem I am having is to get it to move to the new Frame label of the main movie which then loads the smaller swfs. I am using the LoadMovie with nInterval time delay command in flash to load the movies.

Site loads two flash files at the same time with multiple dynamic text fields that load .html files with external css style sheets. The site works almost perfectly when viewed offline, but when you upload it the text boxes sometimes load and sometimes do not. I'm a graphic designer so I really don't know actionscript 3.0 (or any version) very well... so I'm attaching the footer .fla file which by itself suffers from the same problem, and the other files are too big to upload so here is the link to the other .fla file used on the homepage
View 3 RepliesI want to load six seperate .swf's into the main movie while the main movie loads too. So in simpler words, i want to be able to load all of the swf's the same time i am loading the main swf.

I've maintained a blog on my site, and it's a real pain to post in it because everytime I do it, I get TXT files from people using PCs (I use macs), and when I copy and paste that text into flash, it adds double the lines they used. So I have to edit them to take out all the extra spaces.
If that wasn't bad enough, The titles and content use different fonts and different sizes, so they're two different static textfields. And to set each posting apart from the other, I added a line between them. But for it to look good, this has to be in the exact middle between the end of one post, and the next post's title. But since each post has a different size, it's also a pain to measure that distance everytime I add a post. So I was thinking, one way for me to solve all this is to make a movieclip which does all the calculations by itself, and draws text from an external textfile. Maybe using HTML text I can have two different fonts and sizes in one textfield, instead of two?
Anyway, what I want is to just get the new post from people, paste the new text inside the TXT file, overwrite the one on the server with it and voil, that way I don't even have to open flash when adding new posts.
Anyone have a good way to do this? And then, for extra coolness, maybe if I get this working, I could make a page where the posters could log in and post...this page would save the post to the txt and that would make posting a lot easier because then they don't need me to post!
I am having trouble embedding a SWF file that I created into my blog page. I tried to upload it to sites.google.com but the direct link to the SWF file is hidden behind an https:// that I can't get rid of and other people can't see it. How can I embed a SWF into blogger?
View 4 RepliesI'm using a wrapper app to download a remote SWF and save it to a Xoom Tablet. The download and save works fine but using something like [code]Screws with the targeting in the loaded swf so that in my loaded swf if I try and call "stage" from "Main" its null. I thought since loaded SWF's had there own sandbox it would load and run just like it I installed it by its self, does not seem to be the case. If this was a desktop app I could use NativeWindow but its not supported on mobile devices yet. Are there any know options where I can load and run it in its own sandbox where paths and roots are intact? Possibly a command it launch it as a separate swf from my wrapper swf?

View 2 RepliesI remember doing some work where I put a dynamically changing PHP page into flash, I'm curious can the same be done by cutting out the PHP programming? I'm new to AS3 so I'm not sure what the protocol is now.Previously the hierarchy looked something like this.1. Input done on upload.php2. upload.php pass information through a handler.php3. handler.php outputs data.xml4. site.swf imports and uses information from data.xml to display blog

View 13 RepliesI need to have an existing blog that can be viewed from within a Flash web page. The idea is to access and read a blog without leaving the Flash site. I have seen a widget on Flash Den that does this but only works in AS 3.0 The Flash site that needs the blog was done in AS 2.0. I would think this could be done in AS 2.0

Is this as simple as using an XML image gallery's setup? The thing is, for a school project we can do whatever we want, but there has to be a blog. Since we want to make our site in Flash, I had this thought to use XML so my other team members (who have no clue on how to work with flash) could just as easily update the XML file and we have our "blog". Now the way I had this in mind (but I'm not that experienced with XML) is I have a movieClip container which would be added at every new XML line. Within this movieClip there would be a textField to fill with our babbling and a sprite/movieClip which will hold an image. That's about it.
View 12 RepliesI'm trying to load a swf into a main swf. This works fine. The swf I load is not made by me but bij clients and can be anything. For I do addChild I what to resize them to the size I want. This works fine as long the content(animation) is all inside the stage. If there is something outside the stage that shouldn't be shown it will be shown anyway.
I want is to determine the stageWidth And stageHeight from the loaded swf.
I want to create something similar to "Karrine Cast" on http://www.karrine.com/home/ - something where I can record myself on web cam every week and then upload it and display it in flash. Without having to open up flash and render it into FLV, then import it, do coding etc change my move etc. Something simple, quick and easy to be able to display videos. Is there a tutorial or some sort of premade code that would allow me to do this?

View 5 RepliesI got a .XML that is "created" with PHP from a MySql-database. I then load the .XML data into Flash. What i want to do now is the tricky part(for me)
This is how my XML looks right now (more will be added):
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<entries>
<entry>
[Code]....
And when i add another Entry into the XML i want the SWF to auto input.
I think i would somehow loop trough everything and insert to variables, but how and then how do i make flash add textfields for every entry and childnode in a nice way. I want to be able to scroll this later on.
