View 8 RepliesI have a facebook canvas app (flash).
I have a user who is visiting the app.
I have a button that the user clicks for the purpose of inviting a friend to the app.I understand that this can be done via the js sdk: http[url].....However I am already using the facebook_as3_api, and I would prefer to avoid using multiple facebook api's. Does the facebook_as3_api have a way of doing this, and if not, why not?
I have a Send to a Friend form I modified from lewip's awesome xml newsreader slideshow. [URL] I have everything in the text inputs being passed correctly, but I would also like the email sent to contain a small amount of text, that the user does not input, to explain why the recipient has just received the email. If anyone can point me in the right direction, that would be awesome.
View 3 RepliesI want to be able to send a second (or 3rd) parameter to a function that is called by an event listener, but I can't seem to get it to recognize the parameter - it gives me an error 1067 (implicit coercion of value) when I try the below code.

I've been unable to send data to a text file. I am making a news poster for a website, but free or any XML, php MySQL or anything else; so is it possible to send data to a .txt file using no other files? is it getLocals or something?
View 6 RepliesI'm trying to build a class for objects in my prog that can by manipulated in various ways.. I want right clicking them to send them to back, and left clicking, bring them to the front.
ActionScript Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;

When I run it, however, I get ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.So something's not lining up, but I'm not sure how to write it so it'll work.
I am building an ecard, and I created two swfs. The first swf is the actual ecard, with a dynamic text box that is going to display the message. The second swf is where you would actually type in the information, such as name, email, and message. Is it possible for two swfs to "talk" to each other inside an html document? Also, I am not quite sure how to send the card to someone's email. I am assuming that when you hit SEND it reads the input box with that email, but not sure how that works.

View 0 RepliesI have one that's almost done and the stage size is 700x800 px. But I'm starting to worry if that's going to look too small? To change it, will be a lot of work - there's animation, imported Jpegs etc. As far as I can tell, in order for it to look correct in larger dimensions I will need to basically create it again from the ground up. So, I'd really like to get an idea of what the optimal pixel dimensions would be for ecards to run on multiple platforms.
I really want to do this and I don't feel like I can move ahead until I get the viewing size correct. I don't even mind redoing the card. I just want my future cards to be the correct size. I don't want to have to come back and redo them all. By the way, the cards are being made in Flash. The site itself will be created in DreamWeaver.

im building a little flash website for a friend, struggling my way through. Its quite a steep learning curve as this is my first bit of flash work.Heres the problem, i built the part below, added buttons that should scroll through a series of pictures when clicked (which will be replaced with pages later).
The buttons work, and when pressed for the first time they select the right page. However pressing the buttons in a certain order seems to mess things up.
If i press page 1, page 2, page 3 then press page 2 again, page 1 is displayed
There are some question on the StackOverflow about facebook & email, but after reading them I still have a problem with retrieving users emails.
Our app implemented on Flex and uses REST API. And previously it used notifications.sendEmail. App has publish_stream and email permissions (checked with users.hasAppPermission).
I tried users.getInfo for get proxied_email address. But this function does not return email address of the friend.. Then I performed the following test using Graph API and web browser: Opened the following link for authorization with extended permissions:

I'm asking this question because I can only find examples and answers for the PHP version. I need the Flash version. I'm trying to get my friends information, but I think I'm doing it wrong because if I trace it, it'll give me either [object Object] or undefined.
I did Facebook.api("me/friends", handleApiGet);
private function handleGetApi(success:Object, fail:Object):void
{
if (success)
{
[Code]....
ExternalInterface.call("doAlert", success) returns me [object Object], [object Object]. I also did ExternalInterface.call("doAlert", success.name), it returns me undefined.
How to let the user tag a Facebook friend for status wall post through the application(using AS3 SDK)
View 1 RepliesI wasn't quite sure where to put this. I created a banner for a friend in flash using actionscript 2 and the getURL command. When I go to embed it in HTML, the movie shows up and when you hover over it, it appears to link but when clicked it does not link. When I go directly to the .swf file it links, but not when I embed it. Is there anything special I have to add to my HTML to make the link work?
View 2 RepliesI may be mistaken, but it appears that Facebook only supports friend-selector dialogs within a request/invite form. I take that to mean that since our app is just allowing the user to arrange a subset of friends for display within the app (no message to the friend), we must use something that isn't available from Facebook. It would be nice to know if I'm wrong, but important to have some clear pointers on how to get a friend ID back from the dialog without an invite or request getting sent to the friend.
I've searched for solutions and the closest I've come is a description of something that implements what I want offered for license by Mike Knoop. I've tried making contact, but still don't know whether the code (or license terms) will work. It would be really nice to have a solution that was more open, but any pointers to widgets/libraries that include this capability

I am actually discovering Classes.I try to make a class that reads out an XML file and than converts it into arrays.the array is well created in the class file, but I can't send it back to the swf correctly: it only duplicates the first item of the array in an infinite loop, but when I trace it into the class the output displays it right..
with this code I call the class:
Code:
var myProduct:Product = new Product("gallery.xml");
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
trace(myProduct.getArray());

a week ago I bought the following monster template template:[URL]..my last changes to it were to the popup boxes that appear on the SERVICII page when you click those titles there. Right after those changes it compiled and published, everything ok, i did several other tasks in Photoshop then back to my flash and at the next recompile, Error - Send don't send Flash has to close. I reopened it and it keeps closing forced. I tried undoing my steps but nothing worked. I am desperate, the project is due completion on saturday and my source is messed up.
Can anyone tell me why I get that? Has anyone been in a similar situation.I am a flash newbie, I saw no errors in "Compiler Errors" or in "Output", just force closing the Flash CS3.
I have a site that plays either .mp3 or .flv files depending on what is selected from the menu. Menu loads in from xml. I get "unable to make connection with server or unable to find flv on server" when I try to play the video. But the video and audio files are all in the same directory and the mp3 files play fine. I think I'm having a problem with the setMedia command. Here's the code that loads the video and audio files.
