ActionScript 3.0 :: Button - Close The Flash Movie And The Popup Window
Nov 25, 2009
I have an html page with a link that loads a popup window. The popup includes a simple Flash movie. Some basic Javascript code in the html file was used to produce the popup window. What Im trying to do is have a button that I created in the Flash app close the Flash movie and the popup window.
I need to close the popup(adobe flex), non modal window if I click on the parent page of the popup. I have to do the out of focus check and then do some validation before close the popup. So what I was thinking that is there any inbuilt focus check event or do we need to create custom event for that?
is there a code to close the flash player window from a button in the flash movie? i want to run a movie full screen then have a button in the flash movie close the window when the people are done viewing it.
I'm looking to create a flash based popup window when a button is pressed within the flash movie. Not a javascript based html window or html browser window, but a window that is in the flash movie that is entirely flash based. I looked all over the internet and can't seem to find anything on this, and can't find anything on this board either. I am new to flash and actionscripting in general. I would also like to use the Tweener external class, or the flash tween class would work too.
I have a .swf movie that is accessed through a link on a website. At the end of the movie are two buttons: one for "Back" and the other for "Replay." I have the buttons working so the Back button goes to the previous URL and the Replay button, well, replays. However, the Back button opens a new window. Is there a piece of Action Script 3 that I can add to the following to close the window in my .fla Action Script Window to close the window as it jumps to the URL? Here is the script.
*let say i have a mc called A. it can call a MC with an instance name called window_btn.window can be drag and double click.i want to put a close button in the window MC to close the window.
I am trying to get a html popup window to open when my movie hits a certain frame instead of a button. Im using the following code but it uses a button instead of a frame to open the popup.
on (release) { customize the window that gets opened 0 equals NO.[code]........
Have been having difficulty with this issue of getting a close button to work within a mc popup box (it is doing my head in !) Basically I have a Button on the stage that launches a popup mc. To close this popup, I have a 'x' for the user to click on to close this box. I don't want the box to become 'invisible' or for the whole box to close when clicked on (I have tried both but not what i am after). It is important for user to be able to relaunch this box by clicking on the button after closing previously.
It would be great if anyone would be able to view the fla atatched and explain what needs to be included, and perhaps upload a working verison.
I wanna make like a popup effect with a close btn, the matter is that I don't know how to fix it. So any time that I click on any btn will only show a popup, then if I click in another btn the previos popup disappear and shows the new one, by now I can't figure out how fix it.
ACTUALLY i just thought of another one so now i have two. sorry. hope you don't mind. i get sidetracked rather easily. before i start, a quick nota bene. i'm a complete newcomer to flash so my questions are very simpleminded. not much of a challenge i'm afraid.
1. can i put a link in my movie that will close the window?
2. can i put a link in my movie that will open a new window of a specific size, and without the menu-buttons of explorer?
Is it possible to open a cross domain pop up window from a flash button. Let's say something like this: ActionScript Code: on (release) { getURL ("javascript:NewWindow=window.open('[URL]','newWin','width=800,height=650,left=60,top=60,toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars=no,status=No,resizable=No,fullscreen=No'); NewWindow.focus(); void(0);"); } Is a button hosted in domain that links to a secure page in link. Will it work or will it get blocked by browsers or internal flash restrictions?
I would like to have my flash movie launch a window to an HTML page and then be able to notify the flash movie at a certain point (form submission). Is there a way maybe using javascript that I can pass variables to my movie from another external page?
What I need is a new window with fixed dimensions... I found a script somewhere in the web that works fine with firefox but with ie (I tested only in ie8) the built-in popup blocker is preventing the window to open...Here is the code use:For the flash button:
Code: on (release) { getURL ("javascript:openWindow('mypage.php','newWindow','toolbar=0,location=0,directries=0,status=0,menubar=0,scrollbars=1,resizable=0,width=480,height=650,left=80,top=180')"); }
In the head section of the page that contains the flash movie:
Code: <script language="javascript"> function openWindow(URL,windowName,windowProperties) {newWindow=window.open(URL,windowName,windowProperties);} </script>
I came across the following javascript code that creates a fullscreen pop up window from a rollover button (html/javascript) that appears to be unaffected by popup blockers in IE (or at least on my computers it's unaffected). However, when I adapt the button code to actionscript for use with a flash button it starts to trigger the popup blocker. figure out the correct actionscript to make this work without being blocked?
I have created a windowless swf file that loads up on a webpage and i have a close window button, but when i use the getURL("javascript:window.close();") it closes out the entire window and i don't need it to do that. i just want it to close out the swf.
Im trying to get my flash player window to close, when I click on a button. I have tried various code from the net but nothing seems to work. Im building in Flash CS4 on a mac.
I have my game in a browser window (incredible !). I put a red cross in top of my game and want that it close the window. I'm using the following code :
What I need to do, is be able to close a swf with a button that is inside of that swf...in actionscrip 3.0.I've found that I need to be using ExternalInterface.call("hideFlash"); but I guess I just cannot figure out how to get it to work.
i've found that tut to open a window. all good.URL...But how do you do to close the pop up within flash (from a button in the swf embed in the pop up)?
I created a Flash application that reads POST data from a form. A user clicks the button, and the data gets posted to the flash app in a new window (_blank). Now takes the data and then spins a wheel to give users a prize. If they don't win a message pops up letting them know they didn't win. If they don't win, clicking the OK button needs to close the browser window.
I've tried a number of solutions and it seems that the only way to get this done is to launch the window with javascript and then use ExternalInterface.call('window.close'); to close the window from within the Flash actionscript (3) because otherwise the window won't close (I've tried just using window.close and window.close() with no luck)
I understand how to launch a new window with javascript, but I don't know how to simultaneously launch and POST data to that window (the Flash application has to have the POST data. Is this the best solution? Is there a way to close a browser window easier than what I'm describing?[URL]
I have an asp page that will open a new asp page in a new window that contains a swf file with a button.hen the user clicks the button i want to close that window and reload the parent window.
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.
Any suitable script that will close the browser on clicking a swf quit button as the fscommand below does not work. close_btn.onRelease = function(){ fscommand("quit"); } This is for a Moodle application where the swf is opened in a new browser window and it would be cool to close it with the swf quit button.
I am trying to capture the event; which is invoked when we close the AIR window by clicking its Close button (on the top-right corner). I have tried the following; but none of them seems invoked:
I have my html where I embed third-party flash video by means of iframe. When I click play on the video a popup is opened. I was wondering id there is a way to add a javascript function to my html that would close such a popup immediately when it is opened?
I have a parent window that has a flash movie embedded in it. When a certain button is clicked inside the flash movie, it calls a a pop up javascript function to pop up a window with another flash movie embedded in it. This flash movie (the one embedded in the pop up window) has a button that I need to close the pop up and refresh the parent window when clicked. (i.e., when the user clicks the button, the pop up closes and the main parent window goes to a different URL).
I used javascripting inside flash to do so, it works fine, however, I keep getting a warning message when using IE : ("The website you are viewing is trying to close the window, do you want to close this window?"). This message is not displayed in FireFox. I don't want this message to appear. I read about a lot of solutions around this, however, they only work when I test them in regular html pages, but not when used in a button inside a flash movie.
