View 1 RepliesAnybody have a simple script to open an html file to exact size of 526 x 380 with out any toolbars, scrollbars, sizing etc from a flash movie? I am using MX
I have tried a few tutorials and not having any luck. Sorry for being so remedial...but I am ultra-wet when it comes to this stuff!
Further to my earlier posts about identifying and manipulating clips and subclips created in a for loop, I'm sure I'm still not using the best methods of identifying any given clip or it's nested subclip. The following works, but I understand that naming clips and using getChildByName are not best practice.
However it seems to me that using getChildAt could be cumbersome to keep track of, particularly if clips were to be added, removed or swapped during the course of the program.
I expected that clipArray[2].weeBox would have been sufficient to target that subClip in the object referenced in the third slot in that array, but that's clearly not the case. Is this it, or is there a better approach?

When I preview my flash file it says that the filesize is 29kb. However when I look at the properties of the outputted swf it's coming in a t 36kb. Which is the correct size? Also what extra information is being added to push it up by 7kb?

View 2 RepliesI made a preloader for my single scene movie and although the preloader is about 16k, when placed into frame 1 of the movie and tested, the frame is shown to have about 256k, which is larger than the movie it's loading. I've gone through all the files and made sure that export in frame 1 is not checked and made sure the publish settings also are set to export in frame 1.

THE QUESTION I tried to go thru' your instructions using Get URL and putting the java script but I think I'm not doing it correctly, it simply doesn'T adjust to its own size. You can see the stuff on my website [URL] to give you a better idea what I mean.
I have a main flash movie for the index page called inverse.swf, on that main movie it has Photo swf as a sub movie, if you click Photo button. hence it will lead to sub swf movie(photo.swf), if you click pix which says Ripple the separate browser in width 440 height 325 should show up, but instead it shows up in huge browser instead. Like you said on your site, I tried to use Get URL and put the script as [URL] but what I got confused about was if I needed to publish the Photo.swf, since that is the movie it has the button. I did publish the Photo.swf to html, and added your javascript, but when I tried to see it on the net nothing shows up. So what I did later on was instead putting

View 2 RepliesI can only do so much with flash. I am having issues with linking to a video. Here is my question: please refer to [URL] and click on the video link. I have 3 videos that I want people to view when they click on the links:
- SI TU T'EN VAS (2001)
- GWADA (2004)
- JODIA (2008)
I need the links to be able to open a popup window in flash with 320X240 in size.
1- I imported each video in flash (separatly) using the 30rates/frames, progressive dowload from webserver. (the usual).
2- I allready uploaded the videos (.swf and .flv) on the server (godaddy.com)
3- In my main file, I created a button for each one of the links above using the invisible button with their own instances. they are each on a different layer.

View 1 RepliesIs there a way to open the "open file dialog box" in a swf using javascript.
The swf is on a webpage.
I have been working on a project for a week and suddenly it crashed during save (nothing strange had been imported or anything i just saved after moving content around) and now i cant open my file again. I contacted adobe support who claim that since the problem is related to the file this is not their problem, what a load of HORSE ****, who should i contact about this dell if its an FLA FILE!? I have already renamed the file to flash.zip then opened with WinRar and repaired as a new zip file to a different folder (which removes the corrupt content which is document something.xml) then i tried renaming this folder back to flash.fla however the file still does not open.

View 1 RepliesIs there any "mainstream" library used for this purpose? Commonly spread, well maintained, documented etc.I found these (using flash):
Uploadify - not many releases, latest 12/2010, no documentation (!)
SWFUpload - latest release 03/2010, documentation
fancyupload - looks buggy.
phpfileuploader - looks heavyweight, and looks commercial (?) I cannot read the licence (you can download it but are you allowed to use it forever without paying?) plupload New version of pure javascript (no flash) Valums' ajax upload claims to handle file size limit and progress bar, which is quite suspicious to me: these features require to guess the file size before the upload, which seems impossible in javascript (look also here). Or can it work?
