ActionScript 3.0 :: Call JavaScript From AIR?

Oct 29, 2010

I'm having a hell of a time trying to call JavaScript from an AIR application. Here's what I'm trying to do:

1. Load an HTML page using HTMLLoader.

2. Access a link by its ID in the HTMLLoader object and simulate the JavaScript click() function on that link.

Here's the JavaScript function in the loaded HTML page (it simply submits a form on the page):

Code:
function submitAssistantForm(direction)
{
document.theForm.direction.value=direction;
document.theForm.submit();
return;
}

And here's the ActionScript code I'm trying:

Code:
var html:HTMLLoader = new HTMLLoader();
html.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, splash);
html.load(new URLRequest("...URL omitted..."));

[code]....

By the way, if I add the HTMLLoader object to the stage and manually click the link with my mouse, everything works perfectly. So I have to believe it's possible to programmatically send a click event to the link.

Javascript :: Reference The Html Object That Made The Call To SomeFunction Directly Using The ExternalInterface.call Call?

Jun 28, 2011

i have some actionscript that makes a

ExternalInterface.call('someFunction');

call.is it possible to reference the html object that made the call to someFunction directly using the ExternalInterface.call call?

Assume that the object that makes the call also has some Callbacks (via ExternalInterface.addCallback) that are accessible via javascript.

Currently:

Actionscript source
ExternalInterface.call("someFunction");
ExternalInterface.addCallback("someCallback",someASfunction);

ActionScript 3.0 :: Use ExternalInterface.Call To Call A JavaScript Function To Launch A Lightbox Window?

Jun 22, 2009

I'm trying to use ExternalInterface.Call to call a JavaScript function to launch a lightbox window. So far I have this:

AS3:
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("launchLB", "" + aUrl + "");
JavaScript:
function launchLB(url) {
alert(url);

[Code]....

I get the alert but I can't get the lightbox window to display. When my as code makes the ExternalInterface call I get what looks like a page refresh and a blank browser window.

Flash - Externalinterface.call Won't Call The JavaScript Function - Firefox 3.6

Feb 10, 2011

I have a function defined in JavaScript like so:

function fadeBack() {
alert("fadeBack called");
};

I call that function from my Flash file like so:

import flash.external.*;
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("fadeBack");

This works in both Safari and Chrome, but for some reason Firefox won't ever call the function. Still, I can't figure this out. How can I fix it?

Javascript :: Use Javascript To Call Method Within A Flash (.swf) File?

Dec 19, 2010

I have a flash file that contains a package "game" which has a class "Scores" and a method setValue(). I want to write some lines of Javascript that allow me to call that method. Someone directed me to this tutorial, but I am still a bit confused.

Javascript: alert("start"); var so; so = document.embeds[0];
so.addParam("allowScriptAccess","always"); import flash.external.ExternalInterface;
ExternalInterface.call("setValue[2600]");

displays an alert to tell me that it has indeed began to execute saves the embedded flash file into a variable and sets access imports that class calls the method.I am not sure about how this class thing works? This is just the bits and pieces I was able to come up with from that site, but I don't really understand how it all works (but certainly hope to eventually).This is the site: http:[url]...how-do-i-access-flash-function-using-javascript.When I execute the code with the importation nothing happens, but the alert does come up when I don't have that statement?

Javascript :: JS - Call SWF Which Already Is Busy Handling Another Call?

Apr 14, 2012

JS-to-AS3 callbacks work in kinda asynchronous way right? So for example if I ask SWF to download some file, which may take some time (depending on the size of that file), and while it downloads it, ask it to do some other operation (suppose SWF has several callbacks for various purposes), what happens in this case? Does SWF continue to download file and handle my second request in a different thread maybe, or it crashes, or throws some error? I know this is a good case for some testing, but I wonder if anyone has already done that, or maybe there is public info on the case that I cannot find?

AS3 :: Call Php Page With Javascript In It?

Mar 16, 2012

I'm trying to call a php script/page that has some javascript calls in it, from AS3.
I'm using the regular

var varSend:URLRequest=new URLRequest("http://my_www/script.php");
varSend.method=URLRequestMethod.POST;(...)

My php page has some javascript. The php passes some variables obtained in POST to my JS script, which connect to a 3rd party app. Now my problem is, i can call the script from AS3 without any problem, but when i do so, it seems like the JS is never running. My question is, if you call a php script/page in POST from flash, is the JS embed in that page running ??

ActionScript 3.0 :: Call Javascript From Flash

Mar 23, 2012

Included is an example to look at for those willing to help. I have just extracted the relevant sections from the original source files. The html files are commented as well for ease of reference.I have a flash/AS3 slideshow that serves as an abstract for a html based site. There is a catch however... I use a custom content scroller and dynamic content loader (javascript & jQuery) for the body of the site.An example of the custom scroller and dynamic conten loader can be seen on the Malihu wbsite with a demo.The Javascript code that loads the new content looks like this:[code]The button (its a list item) in the html fie that would trigger the custom content loading looks like this:[code]"The ".content" class div is the section im swopping around depending on which link the user clicks. In the case above i dynamically load the contents of the ".content" div from the about.html file into the ".content" div in the index.html file (which is my main file).Is there a way to do the same from Flash?

Jul 12, 2009

I'm doing a Security Project now. And this project needs to intercept javascript call from Flash and do analysis. I've searched the web for a couple of days but still can't find any solution. Flash can use getURL, externalInterface.call to execute javascript code, and I want to stop the malicious calls from Flash. Thus, I need to intercept these javascript calls.

Javascript :: Call A FileReference.browse() ?

May 25, 2010

I am trying to call the browse() method of the FileReference class from JavaScript (a user clicks on a text that uses the ExternalInterface to call a method in Flash).Unfortunately, I receive an error that tells me it has to be a direct action of the user (like clicking a button). I have searched through Google and realized this is a new security feature in Flash 10.The only solutions I could find was to put a Flash button or to have a hidden flash button over the text, that will call the browse() method.I wanted the browser only to show JavaScript and all the Flash code only called from JavaScript.

Javascript :: Call A Function At End Of Movie?

Feb 10, 2011

I want to display a Flash video in a popup window, and when the video has finished playing, close the window using a javascript function "closeIt":

<script>
function closeIt() {
alert("About to close...");

[code]....

How can I achieve this? I have imported a video into Flash (choosing "load external video with playback component"). This is in frame1. I thought that in the second frame I could make a call to ExternalInterface.call("closeIt") in the Actions window. I have tried this, but when I publish and view the flash movie in a web brower, I never see the javascript alert.

Javascript :: External - Call A Function By URL

Apr 12, 2011

I have an ActionScript program that I want to access some external JavaScript functions. By external, I mean that the ActionScript/swf aren't going to be loaded via the HTML/JavaScript. Everything I see recommends ExternalInterface, but that seems to imply that your JS loads your swf. Is there a way to call a JavaScript function by URL?

Javascript :: Why Does Call From Flash Fail In IE9

Nov 18, 2011

I have a couple of buttons in my flash application that call two different javascript functions. They work in all browsers except IE9 (I haven't tried earlier IEs). My code to call the function is something like this:

ExternalInterface.call(
"myLovelyFunction",
string1, string2);

[Code]....

In IE9, the function does absolutely nothing, but the console complains with:

SCRIPT438: Object doesn't support property or method 'SetReturnValue'
index.php, line 1 character 1

line 1, character 1 is obviously pointing at nothing in particular.

I can make it work fine by switching on compatability view, although the console error doesn't go away.

Is there anything about IE9 that causes this, and more importantly, how do I fix this?

Professional :: Call JavaScript From A Stand-alone SWF (outside Of Browser)?

Feb 2, 2010

Can a SWF file, viewed locally in a folder on my PC, make a call to a function in a JavaScript file?I am facing a project where the technical architect is prescribing that all content exist in an all-in-one, giant JavaScript file. With my usual external content experience working with XML, I have always been able to load in XML into the SWF directly (for example, while viewing the SWF in the Flash authoring environment - a very speedy way to view your SWF), as well as when the SWF is actually viewed in the website. However, with the JavaScript approach, my only experience tells me that the SWF has to be embedded in HTML before it has access to the JS functions.
