ActionScript 2.0 :: Open A Pop Up File Window In A Certain Location?
Jun 1, 2007
I'm constructing an enhanced CD menu in Flash. I'm going to be including some desktop backgrounds that I would like people to be able to click on and then save the file from the CD to a location of their choice.
Is there a way to do this - access the files system as you would when you choose a file to upload but instead are choosing a location to save that file too? And then copy the file from a Cd location to this chosen loaction.
Or alternatively is there a way to just open a pop up file window in a certain location.
I created a simple button that displays an error messeage: "error opening 'url" when I test the movie, but does play and opens in browser after publishing. However, it won't open in the browser in a different location. I pasted the html code in a web page but it doesn't work there nor opens in the browser in a differnet location from where it was originally published and saved. Why is that?
1) how do you open a new window if you have thumbnail pics in the flash movie but want the full pic to open up in a new window? Is this Javascript inside flash?
2) How do they do the menu bar here at this site:[URL]

I work with 3d animation. Im have a problem with a personal website Im doing, I have a link in a button inside a flash movie to open a new window and play a youtube movie:
on (release) { var jscommand:String = "window.open('http://www.youtube.com/v/b0L4XLODhAA&hl=en&fs=1&','win','height=344,width=4 25,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes');"; getURL("javascript:" + jscommand + " void(0);"); }
This works fine in Firefox but in IE it doesnt work, I then change the /v/ in the youtube link with /p.swf?video_id= and now I have the window open showing the small youtube thumbnail of my video but once a click play, nothing happens, I check it and is not loading anything.
I'm trying to create a page where you click on the video thumbnail and the video opens up in its own window. I'd like the video to open at a specific size that I determine, not the browser, and I want it to be scalable. Here is what I have so far as a test file[URL]
I have a button in a swf file. I would like that when the button is pressed a swf loads in another window (want to call a new swf in new window.).
I was trying something like:
MYBUTTON.addEventListener( MouseEvent.CLICK, MYBUTTON_link ); function MYBUTTON_link(e:MouseEvent):void { var urlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("external.swf");
i want to open a SWF file to a button but in a completely new window however Im not talking web related i.e. not linking to a web page like...
on (release) { getUrl("www.blah.com") }
whateva it is...don�t want that... I want it so it simply opens a completely new window within flash which I can close... the reason for this is I have a SWF file which is protected and i cant create a back button within it... so I need it to open a completely new window so i can get back to my main page..
I am trying to make a webpage in flash and I´m almost finished. However my problem is this: I have a page with 6 text links and when clicked I want them to open an html file in a new window. Here is the code
christian.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,onMouseClick);function onMouseClick(e:MouseEvent):void{ var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("christian.html"); navigateToURL(request,"_blank");} This works fine, but how to I code the 5 other pages?
I have a flash website at the moment which is my index.html file, i wish to open up a new window and launch a new swf file from this window ( the file will be a new dreamweaver page)[URL]the code i have at present in my main file is:
Code: Select all images.onRelease = function () { getURL("http://www.mydomain.com/images.html/", "_blank");
I have attempted to have a hyperlink text using actionscript:
[Code]...
when I run the code it always creates a new window to open up the file in. I have even attempted to switch out _self with _top, _parent, and _blank, always with the same result. I simply want the file to open up in the same window.
have some ppsx files that I'm opening from a button on a fullscreen window. The first window opens fine, but if I go to open another ppsx file, it opens behind my fullscreen interface. Is there anything I can to do force it to open in front? I tried having _blank in there, but that just opens a browser window. this is what I have now (using greensock plugins, but my question is regarding the navigate to url area):
I have a swf embedded into a course and when a certain button is clicked, it needs to open a new blank window where it plays an FLV file with whatever width and height i specify.
getting a PDF file to open in new browser window from Flash?For example:
Code: getURL("test.pdf","_blank");
I have a client using IE7 on XP that says they see a brief popup that disappears before it is rendered. No error message is received.She is able to open a PDF from a plain html page
Code: <a href="test.pdf" target="_blank">link</a>
Should I try converting getURL's to javascript calls?
I would like to force a pdf to be saved to disc rather than opening in a browser window? I am actually executing the command in flash in a button instance like this
on (release) { getURL("http://website.com/pdfs/pdf_document.pdf", "_blank", "GET"); }
So how can I do this so it gives the pop up window of save to disc option?
i have a flash site that links to PDF's with the navigateToURL function which works etc But now i would like Link to rather open up a download window instead of just a new browser window?
I'm trying to get the link to open in the same window instead of a new window, it's currently set to _blank. I tried _top, _self, _parent. When it's set to anything other than _blank the link doesn't work.
In Flex Air app, how do you open a window behind an active one?
I tried following and i can't seem to get it to work
[Code]...
With this code, I would expect window1 to open behind the main app window and, in 3 seconds, window2 would open behind window1. But if you execute this, window1 will open on top of the main window and window2 will open on top of window1 and the main app will retain focus. This seems like a bug in the Flex. If so is there any workaround for this problem?

I've created a Flash project that is to be distributed on a CD and launched as a 1024 x 768 Flash player window (so no html, java, etc.). It opens on my Mac just fine, but on my clients PC the top of the Flash Player window is halfway down the screen. Is there anyway to make the window open so it's flush with the top and left of the screen?...and not be in a web browser.
In actionscript I am trying to get the location of the host html doc that has the .swf embedded (ie: [URL]). I have tried the _url method in actionscript, but it returns the path of the .swf doc relative to the website (ie: [URL]) Is there a way to achieve this in Actionscript? I looked into fscommand but I need this to work with Safari for Mac OS.

I have this ActionScript: function openNewCart(evt:Event):void { navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.3dcart.com"),"_blank");} OpenCartPage.addEventListener("click",openNewCart);
Is there a way that I can have it open a 5 pixel window that automatically closes after it loads? Also, is there a way to specify within the actionscript where on the screen I want the new window to open?
I'm newer to flash. What I'd like to do is have it add a product to the shopping cart and close back down.If I can't do it straight from flash, I'm sure I can have the flash page open up an html page which redirects to the add to cart page and automatically closes, but obviously a much bigger pain in the butt, and it will only work anyway if I can specify in the actionscript for it to open a 5 x 5 pixel window.
In my game people shoot at 4 different moving images and get points. Simple right? Well one of the images is a question mark that people can shoot and when they do, I need flash to pause the game timer, pop up a new window, display the multiple choice question in the window and wait for the user to answer. I would also like to be able to customize the size and location of the pop up window!
Then if the question is answered correctly close window award 10 points and continue the game. If the question is answered incorrectly, say wrong and then display the end game results screen. Right now I have it to where it opens a pop up in a web browser and askes the question there. The question is randomly chosen from a file called random.html. But I do not want the game to operate that way. I want the game to open the pop up within flash.
