I did a tut from actionscript.org about chromeless windows. It works fine but I would like to launch multiple chromeless windows from one html page. I pasted the script two times, added the correct addresses and now one button is launching the page behind the other button and the other button isn't working

View 1 RepliesI've tried the chromeless script from chromeless.org but it doesn't work in windows XP SP1 and SP2. I need a pop up full screen window as I've designed the whole site with the full screen in mind and if I can't get a pop up, I got to redo everything!! I redid it twice and I'm not going to try the third!! OMG!! Anyone has alternative solutions for this? Or anyone has another version of the chromeless script that works with SP1 and SP2?
View 1 RepliesI want a single online web page for my bookmarks. The page should include small windows which opens the following pages:
Fizy, Facebook, Guardian.
There should also be a button for adding a new window with an URL text input.Here's an illustration of how the page should look: http:[url].....I've built a version of this at http:[url]...., but as you may see, it uses iframes under javascript windows, which can not open frame-breaking sites (like fizy.com), or Facebook.
I've been developing a Flash application that will be running on a touch screen monitor installed in a hospital. The touch screen is run by a Windows machine. I'm afraid I don't know much about the Windows world. I'd like to have my Flash application launch in Flash Player every time the cpu is rebooted so the client never has to worry about manually doing it. Could someone give me some pointers? I guess I start out by publishing a Windows Projector (.exe) file?
View 2 RepliesHow does Adobe Flash launch auto-update message as soon as I logon on Windows? I thought Flash is only a browser plugin. I tried look for the program it runs, but can't find it in all the usual places: Start Up group in Start Menu, HKLM Run, HKCU Run, Services.
I know it is possible to disable this via Flash preferences. However, I need to remove it mechanically once and for all, because it seems like a security risk to me (as hackers would be able to exploit a Flash installation even if the browser has not been launched).
I'm having an issue with the PDF displaying outside the viewable area of the mx:HTML control in Flex. When the application starts up - the mx:HTML is set to a certain size, but can be enlarged if the application is maximized. These are the following conditions to replicate it: Issue only happens in Windows (Windows 7, not on Mac) Issue only happens with Reader X installed (not with previous versions) Issue only happens when running the built app, does not happen in debug / development mode from FlashBuilder

I'm trying to post multiple .swf objects into one html page. The first .swf object plays fine, but the second one does not load. My page is [URL]
Dreamweaver tells me that swfobject.registerObject does not exist, or something like that, but I see this code being used elsewhere. I have swfobject.js in my main folder, too.
I currently embed a swf video on an html page with this script:
<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = function() {
if (swfobject.hasFlashPlayerVersion("9")) {
var att = { data:"player_3982x260_fv4.swf", width:"640", height:"323" };
var par = { menu:"false", allowfullscreen:"true" };

I've attempted a few different ways to embed two SWFs in the html but havent had any luck. Here's the test page I'm working on: [URL]... How would the window.onload = function() be changed to refference two different swfs?
I'm trying to use one html page to load multiple swf files and I can't figure out the correct code to do it.Basically, each main page in my navigation is a separate swf.I need the swf files to be able to load seamlessly over one another.
View 9 RepliesLooking for thoughts and ideas on establishing communication between isolated SWFs residing in a single HTML page. Need to place multiple SWFs in a single HTML page and was wondering if there was some way to send commands from one of the movies to the other wihtout reloading the page. (would prefer not to reload the page and all the components and have the page "blink" - go blank before loading new and cached data) Unfortunately cannot build this as a single flash object with multiple MCs.. must be multiple SWFs.
Have an idea or two on how to set this up with HTML framesets and loading subpages ( a cheat certainly and far less than elegant) but would prefer not to deal with the heartache that would entail - especially since areas of the page would still "blink" on loading.
I have 3 seperate .swf on a single html page which are all communicating with FMS on separate connections. Do you think there will be any stability issues? or connection issues. All the .swf use the same main.asc. There are no apparant problems so far just need an expert opnion.....a side note is I've also noticed an error in the error logs that says its detected a backwards time stamp when recodring. Whats that all about? The application seems fine. Using FMS 3.0

View 1 RepliesDoes anyone know if I can use a button in a flash movie to open a pdf document to a specific page?
I know you can do it with Flash Paper & AS2.
I have a completed Flash (AS2) project that's pretty involved. Now, I need to launch it from a hyperlink on an html page. I want the hyperlink to launch the ".app" or ".exe" file - not the html that Flash publishes. I don't want the user to view the project in an html/browser window but rather as its standalone projector/exe.
I tried a regular hyperlink like this[url]...but that doesn't launch the .app. Instead I got a browser screen showing the path to the app inside the "FLASH" folder. The app is viewed as a folder named "GUIDE.app". (weird) So I surmise that a regular hyperlink isn't going to do the job.
How do I launch a Flash projector or executable file from a hyperlink on a separate HTML page?
Using the centered pop-up tutorial method seems to only allow one pop up per url.. I need the user to open two, and they cannot replace each other because one is an audio player.
View 3 RepliesI need to have a frame action launch a .html file (call it "time-crunched.html"), and then the flash window should close. That's it. It seems like it should be easy (and it WAS easy in previous versions).
I have already tried using the gotourl feature from AS2, but I keep being told that the functionality has been disabled in the current version.
I am on Windows XP, but I need the Windows projector file to work on XP, Vista, and 7, and the Mac projector file to work on 10.0 forward.
I have a flash header for an html site that is about a megabyte and obviously needs a preloader. Unfortunately it won't work to have the preloader loading at the top while the rest of the html below is visible — it will end up looking like the top navigation is cut off, as the top 10 pixels of the nav bar is actually in the swf header (fully loaded it will look contiguous)Is there a way to preload it in one html page and then once it's loaded into the cache automatically jump to the page with the big swf?
View 1 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?
one?

how you make a .swf placed onto a html page be as wide as the page, and let the flash file know how wide it is being displayed so the content does not stretch out

After moving from Windows XP to Windows 7 noticed this behavior in my Flex application. In IE8 when a user clicks on a link in the SWF file it uses the navigateToUrl api to open a new window pointing to an external site. This works as expected in XP on IE8 . However in Windows 7 clicking the link will open a new tab, this new tab however sits in the background therefore it is possible that it may not be noticed by the user. Also the content in this background tab does not always load fully unless you clear the cache. Has anyone come across this issue with Flex and Windows7/IE8? In the navigateToUrl function i pass in a param of _blank.
View 1 RepliesI need to allow users to preview audio files for purchasing. I have CF pages that return records form a SQL database. Each record contains the same swf file however, each swf file points to a different mp3 for previews of different audio examples. So far, everything is working fine. My problem is that I need to be able to stop the sound from one swf when I click to play a second swf .The only solutions I see in Flash forums deal with loaded swf files. These are not loaded files they are separate files within a page. The question is: How do control one swf from another swf in the same page.The following items have not worked: soundChannel.stop();,soundMixer.stopAll()
