I want to record to a XML document everytime a user loads a .swf. Simply just increase the number in the XML document by 1. The issue tho is i'm limited to the server side scripting thats available. No asp, no php, only JSP. Client side scripting(javascript,etc) would be perfectly acceptable as well.Is actionscript capable of writing to a xml file and producing the results i'm aiming for?

View 2 RepliesI am new to CS5 and i'm wondering how to make a flash banner play only once for the visitor. My home page has a search engine and every time the search the result will display with the banner playing again. this is the same for navigating through pages. I want the banner to stay on the last frame. its not looping, its just replaying everytime i navigate.

View 2 RepliesI'm currently working on a portfolio-website in Flash CS5. Everything is good so far,but my only problem is the image gallary. My idea is that when the visitor moves the mouse over one of the images, a hover effect will activate - which is does. The only problem now is that I can't get the images to show in a big format when you click on each of them, for a better view of the image.[URL]..

So, where do I put these url's?If I put them in a getURL won't that just redirect the person away from the page with the SWF in it?

I have this flash application that opens a socket connection with a server. What I need to do is to read packets sent and received byt he application to write a sort of "history" ( in WIndows). Now, questions are: How is the simplest way to do it? Application hooking? Load the flash application in my application and take control over it? No packet sniffing allowed. Is it possible to do it in C++, or you think it's better to use another programming language? My first choice was java, but it seems that do it is troublesome...
View 2 RepliesThere are cases where shipping javascript code with your flash video is not an option. One of these cases is when you've bought space on a website to place your ad banner. In those cases I want to use the 1x1 pixel image tracking method on Google Analytics or Yahoo Web Analytics to track the amount of views on my banner.I have heard that flash blocks any attempt to load data from a third party host (frankly I don't see why they would do that) which presents a problem. I would love a solution.I can picture several methods and their downsides.I could host the banner on my own server, counting the downloads. Unfortunately this would prove to be a tremendous load on my server when possibly millions of downloads would happen per day.
I could write a PHP script, hosting it on my own server, that when requested tracks a page view in GA or YWA. I could place a crossdomain.xml file on my server allowing the flash banner to request my script using a Loader. Unfortunately, the problem of server load still exists as my private server probably can't handle millions of requests per day.Possible solutions are other tracking hosts that allow for flash cross domain file requests, or perhaps a method I haven't thought of.The challenge here is to be able to track the number of views on a flash video without using any javascript. The problem is the sheer amount of load this would put on my own servers if I were to track using my server as a proxy. The best solution would be a tracking service using crossdomain.xml

Tracking software requires that you insert their code into the page you want to track (I'm using StatCounter). I installed a Flash website template and it just has one .html file where I can insert the code. That tracks visits to the first page with no problem but if a visitor clicks on different pages of the site, it doesn't get tracked. Does anyone know how and where to add code so that each page of the Flash site can be tracked?
Note, in my template a part of each page is found in different symbols. For example, the first column of every page is located in a symbol called PAGES1 and the second column of every page is located in a symbol called PAGES2, and the third column located in PAGES3. Different layers within each symbol correspond to the different pages. So I'm at a loss of how I could get this tracking code to be able to track each page visit, since each page shares a symbol with another page.

View 2 RepliesI have been tasked with tracking user interactions with a flash movie that contains several chapters. I need to track which chapters the user decides to watch. But I have no access to the flash movie itself and I can not modify it. The movie loads in a modal. I do have access to the HTML page from which the modal is spawned. This is a screenshot of the interface. There are 6 chapters. Users can select the chapters they want to watch. They can then click Play Your Demo. Alternatively there's a Play All button. I would like to track which chapters users select. This can be easily done with flash, but this is not an option. I hope I can use jQuery on the page to monitor user clicks. I am inclined to say this is not possible though, since JS can not track events/interactions with the flash movie, but I could be wrong.

View 1 Repliesi have this javascript tracking-code I need to place in our flash-banner in order for our third-party tracking company to track clicks and that sort of stuff, but I'm not sure how I need to place it in our flash-banner. I thought I coudl simply place this javascript into a top layer or the like, but seems I cannot directly include it like that inside Flash. Then I thought perhhaps I could simply save the javascript file as .js file and call it from within the Flash file, but not sure how to go about it...
Here below is the javascript in question:
Code:
<!-- START::ib-ibi.com View Tag; DO NOT MODIFY TAG-->
<script type="text/javascript">

I've got a button in flash that is working just fine. I want to add a tracking function from Google Analytics. The action script on my button is: getStarted_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, myCanvas);
function myCanvas(e:MouseEvent):void{ navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://memorialbooks.mycanvas.com/Index.aspx?partnerId=6"),"_blank");}
I have a line of script for that as:
on (release)(getURL("javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/caring_cent er/myCanvas_flash.html');"));
I just don't know how to incorporate both. When I add this into it, the buttons don't work any more. how to write the code so that the buttons and tracking both work?
