How safe is it to put links to email addresses in textFields of Flash Docs?
For example, if you have this:
txtEmail.htmlTetxt = '<a href='mailto:my@address.com'>EMAIL ME!</a>
How susceptible is this to spammers and bots?
I'm doing my own little portfolio and I'm dealing with font embeding. The problem with that is that it increases the size of my first frame and thus, a user sees too much of white screen before anything happens and my preloader shows up halfway full. Oh, and I am not using embeded text on my first frame - I need it later.
The workflow I use with other graphics (Images, movieclips and so on) is that I export them for actionscript but not on the first frame, I usually put them on my second frame and that loads them up, when I'm loading my movie. This allways leaves me in my first frame and I manipulate all my instances dinamicaly there, once the movie has loaded.
But, I'm not sure how can I prevent a font from exporting on the first frame, and then somehow put it into the display list, so that it could load, and I could use it later on on my Text fields.
I want to write bot for photo hunt game like this one, so I need to read every pixel and see if two pictures have difference color code. But don't have any experienced about flash before. Is it possible to write something like this and how ?
View 1 RepliesI have been making a shooting game(birds-eye view), and have put 'Bots' into it but i seem to be have trouble making the bots spawn randomly over the entire map. (550w x 400h-the usual)I have tried using the Math.random function but it only picks between 0 and 1; is there a way to make Math.random choose between 0 - 550 (for the width of screen) ???Or would i have to make some function for that purpose?

View 2 RepliesOn a website I am constructing (search for World Tutors .net on Google and then click Test page next to Webmail at the bottom) I have a contact form with various parts for the user to fill in (some text input boxes, and some COMBO boxes). Having looked on various forums, I thought I undstood how to make the Flash Actionscript 2.0 talk to the php script to send the email (i.e. pass on variables etc.) When the user completes the Client enqiry form and clicks the send button, it looks as though the message has been sent, but no email ever arrives. I've pasted the code I have below.
ActionScript 2.0 code:
stop();
error_clip._alpha = 0;

My company emails our Flash EXE files out to customers. Most of these Flash files use keyboard events to navigate through them, and they load external SWF and video files. So, obviously, I have to package all of my movie files, SWF, and the main EXE into the same folder. In the past, they have simply Zipped the file, emailed it out, and told them which file to open. Sadly, even this is too complicated for some people. I need to simplify the process.
I am trying to find a way to take the entire folder and bundle it into a single EXE file. Also, I need to find a permanent solution for opening the main Flash EXE file in a MAXIMIZED window. I don't mean fullscreen. I mean MAXIMIZED. In fullscreen, keyboard events don't work. But, they do in a Maximized window.

We pass in the number of unread messages to the flash object like a URL request string.

View 0 RepliesI'm making an interactive film. At certain points within the film, the viewer has the ability to select from a few options that will direct them to an external video clip (they are flashback scenes). The main story pauses when the user selects a flashback scene and I'm clear on how to achieve this.
However, my issue is that once the flashback scene ends and the external video closes, I'm not sure how the main story will resume. Is it possible for it to auto-play (resume) in some way? My last resort would be to have the viewer select a play button - this is only because I do not want a break in the narrative and want to limit the amount of clicks the viewer has to make.
I want to make and burn some CD's that are composed mostly of Flash. They are interactive CD's and i want them to open and function on both PC and Mac simply by inserting them. The CD's are for younger children and i would want to try and not have the user track down and install Flash Player everytime.

View 3 RepliesI have the same flash file uploaded to two servers. It seems to work perfectly fine on one (IE, Firefox and Chrome) but on the other it works only on Firefox, not even chrome.
The thing is I guess the flash file does load, but until I right click and click play, the file does not start playing.
I create a small animation with ActionScript (basically fadeIn/fadeOut at different interval of different images). When I view in FlashPlayer directly it work when I view in browsers (any) I need to "click" inside the application for the fadeIn to start.
In my application I use this : stage.addEventListener(Event.ACTIVATE, launch);so I guessed it was caused because by defautl the application is not activated, my question is how can I make the animation start at loading without needing to click on it?

View 2 RepliesI've been experiencing a supposed fault with CS3's autoformatting.It completely ignores my selected option of putting spaces around operators, and when assigning variables a class:

View 2 Repliesplease take a look at [URL] The flash graphic is supposed to auto-resize to the page size but it does not. If I take the same code and put it in an "ordinary" webpage it works fine - look at [URL] What I had hoped to acheive is the effect in this page where the flash movie resizes to match the size of the browser window. I am using the script AC_RunActiveContent.js and calling it from the webpage with the height and width attributes set to 100% - it seems to be sizing the flash at 100x100 instead.....
