a simple question:How can I check, if a swf is embeded in an HTML-page or if it started indipendent?I need this to judge if I can use flashVars that were passed through the HTML code or have to use my internal default values.
View 3 RepliesI'd like to gain read only access to the following parameters of embedded Flash videos located on sites that I do not own through my own custom browser extension/add-on:
Time location of playback head (so I can display the current time in the browser extension via HTML5/JavaScript) Frames (so I can make capture them to an image file, save it and display image in browser extension) Original Dimensions in pixels (so I can display the original video dimensions via JS/HTML5 in browser extension)
Is this possible by using Javascript and HTML5 from a browser extension?
Would I have to use something like the SWFObject Javascript API [URL]
I made a flash mp3 player and it works fine in any other test pages. but when i embed it onto my site it just shows blank. what do i do? my site is [URL] and the flash player i tested here [URL] and it plays.

View 1 RepliesLooking at the attached file, why does bottomScrollV give me the wrong value when the text is dynamically embedded and correct when manually embedded?
Here's the code:
ActionScript Code:
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoad);
loader.load( new URLRequest("info.xml") );
[Code]...
See [URL] Now there is a button called Answera, which when clicked should have a symbol (movie clip) called Check appear at the cordinated specified. Check exists in the libary (but does not have an instance name) and no where else on the stage. when I run this code I get: 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method Check. -> var rightCheck = new Check(); How is it undefinded if it exists in the libary?
View 7 RepliesThe following is my codes. This is still work in progress; so, you will see some functions with empty contents. Plus, this is my first Flex application; please bear with me. This is a quiz application that gets the questions and answers to each questions from a ColdFusion web service. There are three types of questions, True or False, Multiple Choice with single selection, and Multiple Choice with multiple selections. So, based upon the question type, the application would dynamically generate the appropriate amount of radio buttons or check boxes for the users to select. I got these working. The problem that I am having is, I am not sure how to check what the users have actually selected. In some other forums and posts on other web site, it said that I can use event.currentTarget.selectedValue to get the user selection. But when I actually do it, I got a run-time error saying, "Property selectedValue not found on mx.controls.FormItem and there is no default value." My question is, what do I need to do to capture the user selections?

I have an embedded font in my AIR/AS3 app that lacks support for most internationalcharacters. Using TextField and StyleSheet with the font-family property, I assumed I would simply need to do this:font-family: Interstate-Regular, _sans;This works if TextField.embedFonts = false; but then Interstate-Regular isn't embedded for users that don't have it on their system. With TextField.embedFonts = true; the text doesn't even show up. Is there a way to embed Interstate-Regular and still use _sans as a fallback system font without embedding it as well?
View 1 RepliesI'm looking for a embedded language that can be used to script common code between a server app written in C# and a client app written in Flash/Actionscript. It is important that the embedded language interpreter run natively in the environment it is embedded into. For example, it cannot load any external C libraries (i.e. python, neko).
Does such a thing exist for these two languages? Perhaps there is some minimal interpreter that could be easily ported to both?
i'm interested in letting users download my game .swf, but i'll need to be able to tell if they are running the .swf from the webpage, or as a standalone swf. is there any ingenious method to do so?

View 6 RepliesI have some AS3 code that embeds a SWF (which itself contains AS3):[code]They also don't seem to offer any way to extract the ByteArray.Surely it can't be that easy to obfuscate AS3 code. But where did the SWF go? Looking at it with a hex editor, I can't even find the start header ("CWS") of the embedded SWF.My question is: what happens to a SWF when its embedded as a ByteArray? And do any decompilers support extracting an embedded ByteArray?I'm not embedding this SWF in order to obfuscate (there are other reasons). I'm just interested in the decompilation ramifications of embedding.
View 3 RepliesI have an external xml file that, if it's possible, I would like to embed inside the swf so that it doesn't have to be external. I do not want to have to rebuild it using code in flash since it has already been created in the xml file.

OK so I have an .FLV playing in a div container. After and only after the viewer watches the complete .FLV I want a feedback form to come up. Now, should I use flash for this or html? What actionscript would I use for this ? Event.complete if thats even a valid command.

I had made a flash movie in Flash CS3 Portable in which I used a specific font.
I had to re-install Windows and when I tried to open the .fla the warning popped up saying that the font used is not available.
Although I re-installed all the fonts I had when I made the clip, the problem persists. I see over 300 fonts inside the Windows/Fonts folder but Flash doesn't see them all in the font listbox.
Does anybody know how to check which font was used (the warning message doesn't say) in order to try to install it again?

View 2 RepliesI'm working on a game where the the engine is made in AS3, yet the interface is made in AS2. Basically I am embedding the GUI as a AS2 .swf into my main AS3 .swf. I want the AS2 GUI to be able to communicate with it's parent. Small Interface calls like Pause, Unpause, Upgrade.I tried to use External Interface, but I can't seem to get it to work. I know it's made for Javascript, but I thought that it would work just as well with AS2 to AS3.I'm able to edit the Interface file and have the FLA for it. It'd just be a real pain converting it... It'd take way to long to convert the FLA to AS3, talking weeks here, it's rather large.
