Is it possible that I go to an html page , (which contains a flash movie) and let the movie start playing in a certain behaviour according to a parameter passed in the URL?
View 3 RepliesI am trying to set up a form in a flash movie that will post the users entry to a php page. I then need the php page to re-direct the user to a page to show a result.
I have the following AS in the flash form. It seems to post to the php page but from within the flash movie. Rather than taking them to the php page, as a non-flash form post would.
on (release) {
loadVariablesNum("search.php", 0, "POST");
}
Is there a way I can get the flash form to post to the php page in the same way a non-flash form would post.
Hope this makes sense! Basically, when the user clicks the submit button, I need the browser to load another php page that gets the user's input via post.
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.load(new URLRequest("panghat spa.swf"));
addChild(loader);
want to load panghat spa.swf as a variable by pasing variable from html page in to flash
I am currently using URLLoader to get the source code of a webpage, problem is, I need the source that is is created after its javascript runs (what you would actually see in a browser), not the true source code.
I can manually see this Post-Javascript source by loading the page in firefox and then putting "javaScript:" followed by my javascript function in the URL area. It shows me the CURRENT source of the page.
Any way in as3 to get the final html (post-javascript) of a page?
I have a html page with 4 iframes out of these 4 one is a static html page and other 3 are html generated by flex. I have a button and list in one of the flex applications and the list will be populated on click of the button. Now what I want is to have a custom busy cursor to appear on the top of the whole html page until the list gets populated.
View 1 RepliesI have a variable called AICC_Student_ID, which is talking to an LMS to pull in a student's unique ID (usually the same as their NTID). I need to take that JS variable value, and slap it into a String for treatment.I looked at the work it would take to use SWFObject, and since this little swf is going onto literally thousands of pages, manually hacking each and every one is just not worth it.

my code is that....
var topnavigation = _root.topnavigation; // Will load top navigation.swf
drop.loadMovie(topnavigation);
I have a sliding, drop down menu sidebar thingy. The user clicks a button and my slick little eye candy flash movie has a secondary navigation list slide down while any buttons underneath slide down as well. Then when you click on another button it slides back up and the new button's secondary nav slides down. nuff said.what I would like to have happen is that when a user clicks on a secondary nav button and a new html page loads, I would like it to appear that the secondary nav slider has stayed down on the newly loaded html page.this means passing some kind of variable to my flash movie so that it can tell which page the user is on and react (go to a particular frame)
View 4 RepliesI know of flashvars, but how would one send a variable into a swf and then for instance change the variables value and then pass it into the swf again?

View 1 RepliesI have a rails app that embeds a swf. The swf takes user input and posts to the server. For testing purposes, the controller is just redirecting the browser back to another pagewithout processing the data. Interestingly, after the post, the server log and the firebug log shows what clearly looks like a successful redirect (200) showing the correct URL GET, but the browser does not actually move to the new page and is stuck on the same page with the flash app. Same behavior occurs in both Firefox and Safari.

I basically have a form inside of Flash that I need to submit to a server-side processing page, which will then return either json or xml telling if it succeeded or not ( json, xml I suppose ). My version of Flash is CS4 and I'm wondering if there are any libraries or frameworks I can use to accomplish this.
View 2 RepliesI'm basically trying to re-create a HTML link in flash that will allow me to log in to my forums. Here's the HTML version:
[code].....
I have a swf that I have created that make a few HTML posts. When I run and compile the swf locally, it successfully makes posts to my php code hosted on my domain. However when I then upload my swf to my domain, and then alter the embed tag to have a fully qualified path to my hosted swf, the swf will load correctly but it will make any HTML posts to my PHP scripts. The reason that I have an an embed tag with the fully qualified url in it, is that my goal here is to be able to place the html embed code on a number of different sites.
I have it working on a single remote site, and it has a wild card crossdomain.xml file in it. However when I try to apply a crossdomain.xml to any of the hosted sites, or to my computer locally nothing runs when the I use the embed with the fully qualified URL, if I just the locally hosted swf on my computer the HTML post work just fine. I feel this is related to the crossdomain.xml file, however I guess I'm not understanding some aspect of the security model.
How can I pass a Form post variable into Flash?

View 3 RepliesLet me ask how to program an html page to move to a new web page on user's clicking an item of an embedded flash movie? But , in detail, I actually want to do a little different thing.

View 2 RepliesI have a site where all the pages have a common SWF embedded at the top (Nav and banner), but the rest of the page is HTML.Everything is working fine, but I'm finding the 'independence' between the HTML and Flash is making for some sloppy transitions from page to page.I was expecting the SWF to be delayed, at least for the first page visit(and I have a preload routine inside the swf to make it's delay and appearance a bit more visually pleasant), but was surprised to sometimes find the SWF appearing and playing while the HTML content was delayed (resulting in a SWF floating in black).What I'm wondering is if there's a way I can do some sort of preload on my index page.BUT, not the standard one that I'm sure everyone would suggest (like the javascript image 'preload', or the newer 'css visibility' preload trick). The problem with the standard one is that it doesn't check to see if everything is loaded.What I'm after is a routine on my index page that invisibly loads some of the elements from my inner pages (common swf, maybe some of the images) and WAITS until it's done before moving to the inner pages (displaying the company logo and/or a load status in the meantime).Many people would suggest a preloader inside the common SWF on my inner pages (which I have), but the problem with that on its own is that it doesn't stop the HTML from displaying.
I'm trying to figure out a way to do a preloader (like those in a SWF, which loops until everything is loaded) that controls both the SWF AND the HTML.Recently, I found that you can use one swf to preload another, which would be a potential solution, as I could make an SWF on the index page whose sole purpose is to load (invisibly) the common SWF, displaying the load status and then loading an inner html page once it's done.Problem is, I have bee having trouble finding the coding for that, as most searches for preloaders end up being about standard preloaders, where it's monitoring the same SWF that the code is on, as opposed to controlling a second, external SWF.Can someone point me to or provide me with the proper coding/procedure for a preloader that controlls a second external swf or give me a better solution?

Currently I'm setting up a webservice, which includes a login to access the member area.I'm testing all components seperately, and I've ran into a problem. When the user logs in I want flash to retrieve the user_id as a variable, so that I can use this user_id for member related database access. However, I'm having problems with retrieving the user_id.The login is done by inputting the email and password of the user. If these variables match the data in the database the user is send to the member area. I want to get the user_id by posting the email variable to a php file. In the php file the following code is responsible for this:
PHP Code:
$email = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST["email"]);
I have a html/flash site now, [URL]. i access email from my site itself by giving the userid and pwd text box which i copied from the actual website hosting my email access. i copied the entire <form...></form> tag to my page and thus was able to put the name and pwd in my home page only and access the email in a separate window. now i have redesigned my webpage using only flash. i would like to know how i can implement the same using flash. as i have not much experience using action scripting i am a bit stuck about how you pass the hidden form variables. the below is the the exact form syntax:
[Code]...
when you go to the home.html page an animation will play from start and then stop at the end of it. However, for all other pages i.e contact.html aboutus.html we need the animation to skip to the end straight away and not to play the whole animation through. I was thinking this would be controlled by a variable or some kind of external text file ect. Basically in the first frame the actionscript needs to basically say
"if this html page is aboutus.html then go to the last frame and stop" and with the index page it would say "if this html page is index.html then keep playing"
I want to set link of another html page on flash file.
View 1 RepliesI would like to ask when swf object rendering at the html page? Is it rendered only it's visible? If swf at the page bottom that is not visible, will swf be rendered when I scroll down? The problem is that swf object raises some events when it's rendered and I would like to force rendering even if swf object is not visible.

I have a flash movie, which has two frames and constantly loops. On the first frame I have set my variable, and on the next frame I make it add 1 to that variable. Thing is, the variable is currently being set to "0" on frame one, added one, then set back "0" again as it goes back to the first frame. Is there a way, without adding extra frames to set a variable on Load but then to not set it again?
My actionscript is like this:
Frame 1:
count = 0
Frame 2:
count +=1
I want to do something like this, is it possible to set a variable in a textfield?Pop this in a new Flash file and you'll get an error.
