ActionScript 2.0 :: GetURL To Call A Page, But DO NOT Load A Window?
Mar 26, 2009
So basically i have a flash application that needs to call a url when a button is clicked, but i don't want it to actually load a new window or even load the url. All the button does is call the url and it logs it, kind of like a click tag. My server keeps track of the number of times the particular url is called.Everything works fine, but everytime i do it, it opens up a new browser window that is empty, i do not want to open a new window. I am using getURL, but that actually opens a new page,

I have a menu that navigates my webpage. Say, for instance, I click on the "Home" button, it should take me to the homepage.I want the home page to open in the same window, not another window or tab. So I used this code:
Code:
on (release) {
getURL("http://www.mywebpage.com/home",_self);
}
Yet the homepage opens in a new window instead of the same window. Should I be using the "_self" parameter, or something different?

I have this code on my button in a flash header to load a page into an iframe:
Code:
on(release){
getURL("home.html", "mainframe")
}
And I have this code in my html document defining the iframe: Code:
<iframe id="mainframe" src="home.html" scrolling="no" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" frameborder="0" vspace="0" hspace="0" style="overflow:visible; width:100%; display:none"></iframe>
The problem is, this works fine in google Chrome, but not in mozilla firefox or IE. So that eliminates the idea of it being a coding error on my part. Is there another way to do this that all three browsers will support?

I am using Flash CS3, AS 2.0 and I have a button with -
on (release) {
getURL ("http://www.axiomaudio.com/store.html", _blank)
}
This is a small banner in an HTML page and I want it to open in the same window instead of opening a new window. I have tried using _self) instead of _blank) but it still opens a new window.

is there any way to use the getURL command without it actually opening a new page? What I'm really doing is sending variables to a php page and inserting data into a database, but when i use LoadVars and LoadVars.send it's not workin for some reason. So I tried a simple getURL and that also sends the variables to the page and that works for me, but I don't want the users to see a new window popup or for the one theyre in to go to a new URL...? Maybe I'll post my LoadVars code too just to make sure I did that correctly... but I copied and pasted it from another LoadVars object in the same flash program that is working correctly (both sending AND loading variables)...

From Flash, I'd like to launch a new browser window just like getURL() does, but I've had some trouble finding a way to make the new window addressbar-less. I'd like it so you click a button in flash and it pops up a new browser window showing pretty much nothing but the content of that page. So no addressbar, no back and forth browser controls, its just for displaying an image with. Javascript solutions or anything else are fine, as long as it can be launched from some script in Flash itself.

I'm trying to use ExternalInterface.Call to call a JavaScript function to launch a lightbox window. So far I have this:
AS3:
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("launchLB", "" + aUrl + "");
JavaScript:
function launchLB(url) {
alert(url);
[Code]....
I get the alert but I can't get the lightbox window to display. When my as code makes the ExternalInterface call I get what looks like a page refresh and a blank browser window.

i've got a form, which i then would like to send using asp (CDO).anyway, it works a dream when i use the following:
GetUrl("processForm.asp",0,"post");
however when u use:
loadVariables("processForm.asp",0,"post");
It does nothing.the problem with GetURL is that it opens the scrpt in another window, which isnt ideal.the code in processForm.asp is:
<%@language = "VBScript" %>
<%
strName = Request.Form("FirstName")[code].....

I have the following problem trying to open a new window from flash:
getURL(url, new_window, "POST")
What happened was that the first time I clicked the button, it opens a new window; but subsequent clicks seem to do nothing... No "post" is done and that window doesn't get refreshed.

I'm working on a kind of coverflow layout and I'm using an XML file to house my links and information about those links. in my ActionScript, I'm using getURL to point to the link the user clicks and open the link in a new window using the following script:
getURL(infostruc[current - 1].artLink, "_blank");
I need to have the new window open up to a specific size (1014x714), but I'm not sure how to write the AS for this kind of action since I'm calling the link from an external file.

I am using the getURL function in response to a button event. I need it to open the URL (absolute) in a new browser window, but I need the new browser window to open on top of the current browser window. Right now it's opening behind the current browser window. Below is my code:
on (release){
getURL("absolute URL here", "_blank");

I've tried a few of the components that are supposed to make this easy but, I haven't found one that works properly yet.
