View 2 RepliesHave an issue with several buttons in cs3. I want the buttons to open the page in the same window, and they will once, but I need this to be a reoccuring effect. here is the code.
[Code].....
I have a menu that navigates my webpage. Say, for instance, I click on the "Home" button, it should take me to the homepage.I want the home page to open in the same window, not another window or tab. So I used this code:
Code:
on (release) {
getURL("http://www.mywebpage.com/home",_self);
}
Yet the homepage opens in a new window instead of the same window. Should I be using the "_self" parameter, or something different?
Looking for getURL syntax /parameters that will let me open/display a specific page of a PDF in a new browser window.
Tried this, but it's not working:
pdf_btn.onRelease = function() {
getURL("pdfs/sample_file.pdf#page=605", "_blank")
}
The pdf file opens in a browser window, but not to page 605. It opens to page 1 of the pdf.
Is there a way to open a html page in a borderless popup window using AS3. I've found info using AS2 with the "getURL" but nothing with the "new URLRequest" This is an example of what I'm looking to do: [URL]

This works fine, but I want to be able to use "_self" so I open the new page in the same window yet it doesn't seem to work.
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 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?

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 added a website preloader in a separate scene to the main frame of my website and scripted it to go to and Play the main scene or frame of the website when finished loading. I then put a command in the first frame of the main scene for the movie to stop (); at that point. The problem is that now the buttons on the main page don't respond to any behaviour commands to go to and stop at other frames in the main scene. I'm not sure if this is a conflict between the stop(); command in the main scene and the button behaviour command to go to and stop at another frame or an error with the way I'm identifying the scene and frame.

How can I access this data? Or, how can I send this data to the sub-window on creation? It doesn't need to be dynamically linked.

I am able to pass a variable from an html link that loads a separate html file and instructs the embedded file to go to a specific frame.But - I now need a link within an swf file on one page to open a new page and tell that swf to start on a specific frame and it is not working. Here is the code I use for the first example - works like a champ:
html file 1
Code:
<a href="fullpage.html?stateVar=19">Go here</a>
html file 2 swf embed code with variable info:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
// <![CDATA[
var so = new SWFObject("yourSWF.swf", "sotester", "500", "500", "8", "#FF6600");

I bought one of those templates, and i was able to get around most of the stuff. But one last thing that I have issue with is that there is an AS2 script for a button, where you can change the page that you want to be updated. But every time that I click that button, it opens the new page. but then if I use the same button in the new page, and click on it, another page will open and that current page will get closed.

I am creating a flash site and am trying to make it SEO. I'm thinking a possible solution would be to render html to any search engine bot, or to anyone who needs accessibility, and rendering the flash site for the rest of the users.First question is, is this acceptable for google, and SEO in general?This would mean I would redirect urls to flash users from only if they weren't a bot of some sort.Second question is, is it possible to do this in javascript or rails?I would do this by capturing the URL, checking to see who the user is (is it google, or is it a human), I'm just not sure how to do this with javascript/rails, whatever need be. Then once I found "hey this is google", I would return the html page; if it was a user, I'd return flash.
View 5 RepliesI am making a flash site and am trying to have a link which redirects to another site. The problem is the redirect address has an e with the accent ' above it. When I copy the link directly into flash, it converts it to code in the URL bar.How do I make the link in flash so that it keeps it as an accented letter in the URL bar?
View 2 RepliesI have a flash app that uses the FileReference download method to serve up download links. Many of the links come from big content delviry networks and a crossdomain policy file is required to avoid a security error. This all works fine. Except for redirects in IE... in FF redirects work.
A typical Charles log in FF looks like this....
Code:
1) 302: download file temporarily moved
2) 302: download file found
3) 200: download file received OK
[Code].....
....the request for the crossdomain policy file is not being made in IE & thus flash blocks access to the download (client closed connection). The flash throws the traditional 2048 security error - which is what I'd expect if no crossdomain is available. It's worth noting that downloads without a redirect work fine in IE, the crossdomain is requested & received.
As far as I can make out there is no way to force "checkPolicyFile" with FileReference - it doesn't take a LoaderContext object. I'm at a loss of what I can do to resolve this without putting a proxy on our webserver (the backend guru will not allow this as the downloads can be quite large & he thinks will end up being a huge bottleneck).
I am working on an archive that contains a large number of flv and swf videos. The plan is to make this archive available to my site visitors to be able to go back and look at some of the old flash videos. Simple enough. The problem is that most of these videos have a redirect at the end which will send you to a website that no longer exists and I do not have the original fla's to work with. These files are pretty old. So, what I'm looking for is a way to prevent these redirects and keep my visitors on my site.
