[URL]its like the whole area of the window is flash, he has it ALL over without scrolling. now what im interested is in the no scrolling part. is it a size thing? and if it is, do the values have to be set in flash or in a program like DW?
View 1 RepliesI am making a website for a client in which I need to incorporate some way of allowing easy client editting.Having looked online I havent found anything that will fit the requirements exactly but have seen the functionality on other sites in the past. Ideally I would use a secure web page with a form where the client could select the item to edit using a drop down and then proceed to fill in a few boxes, saving the new content that would be then viewable in the flash file.
I origianlly thought of an html form that stores the saved info in an XML file that could then be drawn out in the flash site.Is that the best way?
windows 7 64 bit IE and mozilla firefox , both 32 bit Says I have flash player installed. I have the latest version. My windows is up to date, 64 bit 7. Plugin is enabled, works on adobe's site. Doesn't work anywhere else to my knowledge

The folder is not there. I thought that would probably be the problem. Manual installer uninstalling and all kinds of installing have been tried.
I like to move the four pages according to the name of the top menu items with certain intervals. ( The pages are just images) and like it to use xml to load. When the home page loaded the menu "home" will change its color to red and when the second image is in the frame the second menu item will be red.

View 0 RepliesMaking a photo slideshow to load as an external movie clip on my site when a button is pushed. Here is a link to the .swf file: [URL]. There is text that describes each set of 6 pictures. After the set of 6 pictures plays through the text is supposed to disappear and a new text appears to label the next set of 6 pictures. Problem is: the text doesn't disappear! I made all the text layers a symbol/movie clip. I animated each text to disappear at a certain point in the timeline but when I test the movie the texts just remain there and build up one after the other. When watching the movieclip, pay attention to the text in the lower left screen.
View 2 RepliesI've decided to finally make my own full flash site. I've got more than enough Flash and ActionScript (and XML) knowledge to pull it off nicely, but I was wondering if people who have already done this have any advice for me in terms of organizing the whole thing, so it's easy to upgrade and follow through during the time you build it. I was thinking a standard layout, maybe an intro and a first preloader, then a menu that choses sub-sections and each has an intro and outro transition? Oh, and for seperate sub-sections, do you put the preloaders in the main movie or do you include the preloaders seperately in each of the subsection swfs?

View 5 RepliesRight now, I'm doing a lot of byte write operations, and I believe this is taking up a bunch of memory, which is then throwing an error. Is there anyway to flush some unneeded memory every now and then? It's not flushing the memory every time I run it in the fla either.
View 3 RepliesSo I've looked all over the internet for this answer and have found nothing.I'm writing data to a shared object and need to know when it's successfully written to disk so I can take further action.Most of the time the shared object gets successfully written, but some times, for reasons unknown, it will fail.So my question is, what are the reasons a call to flush() can fail and how best can I avoid that case and ensure that its successfully written?
View 5 RepliesI have set the amount of data that my SharedObject can store to none, and Never Ask Again. But I cannot get SharedObject.flush() to return false as per the help system. Settings changed here: [URL]
Code:

// trap SharedObject memory limit set to 0

View 4 RepliesI notice that, when I pause the video, the event "NetStream.Buffer.Flush" is triggered. And according to the language reference: "Data has finished streaming, and the remaining buffer will be emptied.", I have to re-buffer it, right? However, also according to the reference, it shouldn't stop buffering:Starting with Flash Player 9.0.115.0, Flash Player no longer clears the buffer when NetStream.pause() is called. This behavior is called "smart pause". Before Flash Player 9.0.115.0, Flash Player waited for the buffer to fill up before resuming playback, which often caused a delay.I'm using Flash Professional to do the debugging, and the traced version number is: MAC 10,0,22,91, and the streaming server is FMS4
View 3 RepliesI'm writing a real-time app using a Flex/Flash client and my own server running on Linux.
I'd like to be able to send data from the Flex client in real time (in response to user actions). I've tried the following methods:
flash.net.NetConnection.call()
flash.net.sendToURL()
flash.net.Socket.write() followed by flash.net.Socket.flush()
[Code].....
The second nc.call() above won't send data to the server until the ACK for the first call has been recieved. I'd like to be able to send data immediately without waiting for that ACK.
If the round-trip time to the server is long (e.g. 300ms) I can only send data to the server 3 times a second. Ideally I'd like to be able to send data up to 30 times per second, but this is only possible with a RTT of around 30ms at the moment.
It doesn't matter if the server itself gets the data 300ms late - I realise I can't beat the speed of light.
Is there any way to get the Flash Player to send data without waiting for an ACK? In other environments this is done by setting the TCP_NODELAY flag on the socket but it seems I don't have that level of control in Flash/Flex.
Update: I think I may have stumbled on a workaround for this. I think the Flash Player tries to get the host browser to give it a separate TCP connection for each NetConnection object, subject to the connection limit for each browser, e.g. 2 for IE. The connection limit can be got around by using sub-domains (haven't tried this yet) so hopefully it should be possible to get closer to real-time behaviour by using a pool of NetConnections.
I've made a custom video player in as3. Everything works, but once a video has loaded and played through completely, if the user replays the video it continuously fires the NetStream.Buffer.Flush event until the video stops playing again (by either ending or by the user hitting pause). It doesn't seem to effect anything negatively, but I would rather not have an event continuously firing in the background like that. I can't find any documentation of this happening online anywhere. Is this normal behavior for a NetStream that has fully loaded?
View 1 RepliesAIR seems to keep its own DNS cache when an application is running, and ignores any changes to the OS DNS cache (i.e. ipconfig /flushdns.More specifically, I'm creating multiple URLStream & URLRequest objects over a long period of time in a AIR application. Once the first one connects the host's IP address is cached for the lifetime of the application.And the URLRequest.useCache property,understandably,has no effect on DNS caching.how to force a host name to re-resolve inside a AIR (or Flash) application?
Note: Unfortunately, resolving the IP through a web service and rewriting the URL is not an option as a workaround.The use-case is downloading files from Amazon S3 using signed URLs which are invalidated if modified.
Update: The test results above were gathered on WinXP prior to AIR 1.5.2. Subsequent tests using 1.5.2 show serialized requests with URLStream.load() are re-resolved more frequently but still ignore TTL values.I still haven't figured out what conditions are necessary to trigger the re-resolution, but have noted a couple of cases that prevent it.For instance, if another asynchronous URLStream is active to the same host then requests use the cached IP address and are not resolved. And simply closing and dereferencing all streams to a host is not sufficient to ensure the same host name will be re-resolved in the next request.

I was wondering if its possible to make a website fall asleep when the focus is shifted away from the entire window.... so something like onBlur. I've seen this on a few websites and I got thinking how they did it. I'm guessing they have some kind of JavaScript code in their HTML page that can detect an onBlur or killFocus or whatever you call it - then the flash movie picks up on this and takes appropriate action - like pauses a movie or displays a message "please come back" or things to that effect.
EXAMPLE:Go to [url].... and go to the WANDER AWAY section and click his links. Provided you have enough "money" (you can earn "money" by navigating around) you'll be taken to pixel ranger etc. Now click on the howblue.com window and you'll see its been greyed out and is "asleep". You have to click the movie to awaken the site.

View 4 RepliesI made a 3d box using flash cs4 (ive made one using imported images as the sides and another one using vector siding made in flash) Both times, when ive finished the box and rotate it, sides will dissapear then reappear, depending on where the box was in its rotation. For instance, when you look at it dead on, the front side seems opaque, but when i start rotating it, the fron side, at certain angles, becomes transparent and you can actually see INSIDE the box thru the wall, then as it moves it becomes solid again. I am trying to make a presentation for work of a package, rotating 360 degrees on its y axis, but keep getting these odd disapearing sides.
