My client wants to make some of his original songs available for download. How do I script a button to begin downloading? How do I setup the MP3 file? Should I just place it in a folder on the server or make it a part of an HTML file?

View 1 RepliesI'm on a laptop and for the past day or so I downloaded adobe flash about 10 times and it doesnt seem to work. whenever I try to watch something or have a flash ad on a website, I get a message that says "install missing plugins". I click on it, and it takes me to the flash download page but it doesn't seem to work. I'm not sure if this has anything to do with this, but it says by the installation instructions that I would need to press "run", I only have an option to save the file.
View 1 RepliesI have a webpage with a video component (swf file) with a separate .flv file and skin. The .flv file is intended to progressively load from the webserver.
In the swf file I have set autoplay=false to stop the move playing when the page is loaded. This works fine.
However, the problem is that the movie still downloads in the background. i.e. Each time the page is loaded, the .flv file is being loaded.
Is there a way to stop the .flv file being loaded until the Play button is pressed in the player?
I want to get a flash game that loads the contents of the game. When i download the swf, it's just the loader so it's useless. I need the full contents.
View 1 RepliesI have set up a progress bar file that in which i have imported my .swf file. Is there a way I can start playing the flash movie before it is fully downloaded. Not sure if this is a buffering or streaming question. Lets say it starts playing when it's downloaded at least 50% of it.
I've looked up and tried several ways, but i think i am confusing myself more then helping.
loadingBar.scaleX = 0;var loader = new Loader();loader.load(new URLRequest("coyoteslide.swf"));loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onCompleteHandler);loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, progressHandler);loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,showLoadResul t);

View 0 RepliesI am using mcl ( moviecliploader ) class to download images for a photo book;
when a user mouseover's a thumbnail, the corresponding fullsize img is downloaded;
PROBLEM: 1 - a user can move their mouse quickly over many thumbs;
2 - mcl class doesn't seem to have a way to stop downloading
3 - therefore it is realistic that the mcl could be forced to download 10-15 images simultaneously
4 - possibly the thumb that the user actually wants is last in the que;

View 2 Repliesi understand that you have to have a .zip file usually to force a browser to download the file using the getURL command to the URL of the .zip file. But when i have a link in a pop-up page, it just gives me a error 404 page
so far the AS looks like this
on (press){
getURL(www.troyblank.com/download/beeswax.zip);
}

how to setup Planes with papervision, then retrieve them later?I've set up the 3d scene like this:
PHP Code:
var con:Sprite = new Sprite();
con.x = this.width * 0.5;
con.y = this.height * 0.3;
holder.addChild(con);

but none of these methods seem to work,, possibly because you can't do the same things to Planes that you can to movieclips...(?)the scene.numChildren seems to work though.
I'm making a dialogue based flash game.When a player clicks the right response I want them to gain/lose points.What is the best way to accomplish this?I'm in need of correct code/script because the way I'm doing things now doesn't work.
The buttons that allow for a gain/loss of points are inside of movie clips and are also on different layers, so I thought using a global variable would allow for editing it anywhere,but when I click the buttons that //should// make the player lose or win points, the value does not change, either that or I get a "NaN" in my dynamic text box.
Initiated variable;
_global.love = 0
The code I'm using right now;
on (release) { _root.love += 5;
}
the variable I set the dynamic text box too;

View 1 RepliesI've watched a really helpful tutorial on FB4.5 for PHP by Mihai Corlan and am hoping to use some of his techniques but would like to use a different PHP server because Zend Server costs money and I'd rather avoid polluting my workstation with still more daemon-type services. I've set up numerous Debian and CentOS servers from scratch and would like to configure FB4.5 for PHP so that I can debug both my Actionscript and PHP. Has anyone done this? I could certainly used advice from someone who's gone through all the trouble already. I'd very much like to capitalize on all of the ways that FB4.5 automatically generates code and creates links for you rather than writing all that stuff by hand.
View 1 RepliesApparently, there is a way to have one library, update a symbol in that library, and have the one update be reflected in 10 different documents that share that library. However, I cannot find any (coherent) documentation on how to do that.
