View 1 RepliesIm trying to write a function that used to work real wll in AS2
on(release){
loadMovie("name.swf", _root;
)
This script would load a swf movie located in the same folder as "the calling swf)
The calling movie "unloaded" and the loaded movie "name.swf" would load up by itself.
I have tried different functions in AS3 including
//Name of the button: back
back.addEventListener(mouseEvent.CLICK,mouseClick);
function mouseClick(event:MouseEvent):void {

i have situation in which i have some library projects, say
"DataProcessors","Lib2"
, included in my lets say "MainProject" (a web project) placed on directory
"E:in-debugMainProject.swf"
, when i build the project it automatically place all the libs .swf in its "E:in-debug" folder, but when i debug or run the project it it gives loading error that
"E:DataProcessors.swf"
not found but i have those lib files on
"E:in-debugDataProcessors.swf"..
what could be the possible errors.
to have an embedded .swf on a website that can play music located on the users computer? in other words, can a .swf have a dialog box that asks the user to select an .mp3 on their own computer? what i am hoping for is to be able to have users play their music and have the .swf act as a visualizer.
View 2 Repliescreate an SWF file that can play mp3 files directly from the server, without the need for a streaming media server or external JS.
And also for the application to read the current directory its located in and build a playlist based on the files inside.

And does not matter if swf still is placed in the same dir as images, because now your swf moves to different location (index.html)
I'm not getting an error message, so I assume the AS is written correctly. That's what's so confusing. The files are not upload to a server yet -- everything is local. What happens is, let's say, I use FF to view the html file, after clicking a thumbnail, it directs to a page that reads: File not found Firefox can't find the file at /Users/name/Desktop/SITES/grdn_page/elleJapan.jpg.
I put the jpegs and the html in the same folder?

So I'm building a drop down menu, and I'm done, almost, all I need is to link everything. The tutorial uses action script:
on(release){
getURL("http://www.something.com",_blank)
}
so it works for me when I enter actual website (ie coldplay.com) BUT I'm trying to link everything from my computer, this to be more specific: F:ColdplayWebFinalcoldplay.html
But it DOESN't WORK and I spent so much time building everything. Is there any way to make it work?
A lot of people have .com websites & put all their classes & packages inside a com folder & then their website name to avoid any possible naming conflicts when using other peoples classes - all very sensible. I have a .co.uk website however - is there an equivelant naming standard?

View 1 RepliesI want to embed all xml files of a given folder. For now I'm doing something like this:
[Embed(source="../somefolder/file1.xml", mimeType="application/octet-stream")]
private var MyClass1:Class;
[Embed(source="../somefolder/file2.xml", mimeType="application/octet-stream")]
private var MyClass2:Class;

The list of XML files will grow to 10+ files, so I'm looking for a more elegant and dynamic way to embed those files.
The files should be embedded on compilation, to load them via URLLoader is not an option.
How can i get all the files in a given folder in flex project. the folder is within the project itself, under src folder, like.[code]I want to get the names of all jpg file in an array.. how it can be done programmaticly?
View 2 RepliesOur application is a ASP.NET + Flex running on IIS 6.0 server. On the client machines we run IE8 for display. IE creates temp files that seems to be taking up disk space. The Temporary Internet Folder size continues to grow seems to exceed the limit of 8MB - automatic recycle. When and under what conditions does IE delete files from the temporary folders?
View 1 RepliesI'm just beginning to learn actionscript (I'm using Flash CS4).There's this little project I'm working on as part of my learning activities.I have a folder with 12 jpgs and I want to randomly load 6 of them into 6 mc's that I already have in my stage. I say randomly because I would like to have different images everytime I play my little movie. I know that if the jpgs names where somewhat serialized (i.e. "pic1.jpg", "pic2.jpg", etc.) I could easily do it by creating a variable to contain the numeric part of the name and concatenate it with the rest of the name (or something like that).
The name of my jpgs are pure strings (like "basketball", "soccer", etc.).Can I (via actionscript) read those names and push them into an array even though the names are pure alphabetical strings?If this is possible, I think I can figure out the randomizing after pushing the names into the array.
Is it possible, either with AS1.0 or as2.0 to save a text file and create folders from flash in a specified directory?I know how to use sharedObject, but I was wondering if there was any way to save files to other locations or even create a folder to save them into.
View 2 RepliesI have this script (below) that picks out the files from a folder and loads them into the swf without saying specifically what the filenames are. At the moment they load in 1 at a time, how can I make it so they all load at once in a horizontal row with a whote gap between each of them?The whole point of this is so the user can just upload files to a folder and not have to touch any script etc.The plan is to put them into an infinate menu (that part is ready, its just the first bit thats causing me problems).
Code:
delay = 3000;
//-----------------------
function loadPHP(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
imageArr = new Array();
[code].....
Here is my code:
var vi3585 = 0;
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
//telling the loader that we are dealing with variables here.
loader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
//This is an eventlistener
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loading);

I have dynamic number of files inside a folder. Every file has 2 variables in it vt11 and vt11s. I need a script that checks if the variables in the files have certain values and if it has this value than it counts this file. Basically what this script does is that it counts how many files in the folder have the same 2 variables in it and than displays this number in the text box. The above script always shows 1, no mater how many files with the same 2 variables are in folder.
How do I specify files to be accessed only in a specific folder via a crossdomain?
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "[URL]">

<site-control permitted-cross-domain-policies="[URL]"/>
<allow-access-from domain="*.newdomain.com" secure="true" />
</cross-domain-policy>
I have a flash player which play mp3 files from xml. at now mp3 files are downloadable with software like internet download manager. if i move mp3 files to out of www and change xml location attribute to '../mp3filename.mp3' player can not play mp3. my question are
1) flash file can access files out of root folder
2) what is best way to protect files from download?
I've got this Flash project where there are a number of different photo galleries that hold images. Now, I want Flash to be able to see how many pictures are available within a folder so it can create the right number of thumbnails.
At this time, you might think... well there are numerous topics about this issue and PHP is the answer. But I perhaps have a workaround and I was wondering whether it is an 'acceptable' one or if it poses to many problems.
How about I let flash create an 'experimental' loader that loads images rapidly, theoretically till infinity. This loader starts with 1.jpg, followed by 2.jpg, 3.jpg, etc... (also the names of the images inside the folder obviously). There is also an eventlistener added to the contentLoaderInfo stating:
ActionScript Code:
experimentalLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, checkFileEnd);
As soon as Flash is trying to open the file, let's say, 51.jpg and this file does not exist, the Event described above fires. This event will then tell Flash to stop counting since it apparently reached the end. The experimental loader will then be removed and the normal thumbnail loaders will be created up till 50.jpg.
I'm building an swf that's suppose to work locally (offline).That swf is like a menu for some other swf that the user will download and will be prompted to put them in the same folder of the main swf.What I want to do is the main swf to be able to recognise which swf the user have downloaded in order to show them 'available' on main menu.Is there a way to check the folder destination for swf files or something?
View 4 RepliesI recently got the following code from one of your tutorials and am wondering why it is that when I try to change the .jpg images to .png images, the images no longer appear in the swf file. Does flash no allow .png files to be loaded.The reason that I need the files to be png is because the have to have a transparent backgroung.[code].....
