Here's what I'd like to know: is it possible to run a SWF in a browser (as a kiosk), then have a separate browser window load on top of the SWF so it looks like it's part of the SWF?
[Code]...
How do I centre my Flash content horizontally in the browser window? In the Publish Settings I see there are options to align the HTML to Default, Left, Right, Top and Bottom, but no Center. Is there a setting somewhere else? Do I need to write some ActionScript to do this? (If so, what?)

I know GAIA have the ability to do this but I don't know how to use it, and the more I look to it, the more I think it will be overkill to use on my project.
I want my background to occupy 100% of the browser window and have the content to be centered.
Is there a much simpler way to do that without having to do it in a framework?
I have a button inside of my flash website that links to a html page. I would like to load that in a new window.

View 3 RepliesI'm trying to create a web based welcome display for a building entrance. The project would include:
1) A wmv movie play constantly on the digital display until some visitors touch the screen (this can be played either locally or on the internet, but it has to be able to go to number 2 when visitors touch the screen)
2) A couple of buttons with department names show up for visitors to choose who they are here to see
3) After the visitor touch on one button, an email is sent to the department
4) the site should go back to the number 1) again
My experience is html, css, php, javascript, and some Flash, but I'm open to learn new skills. Can someone please suggest some good ways to build this site? Is there any tutorials or good sites I can learn from, that would be a bonus. Edit: so I'll use html5 and javascript. I have a couple of further questions, Since this is going to be a kiosk, the same movie is going to be played constantly, everytime after the customer has contacted us, the 'thank you' page is going to show briefly and go back to the first movie page. My question is how can I not let the movie load again and again everytime when there is a customer?
Because the local data space for the display is going to be limited. I've been thinking if I just create one page for the whole process and use a javascript slide to make each page as a div, so the movie div is going to be hiden so it doesn't need to be reloaded again, would that fix number 1) data space concern? I'm thinking of using a horizontal slide like [URL] How can I make the last div (thank you) to show about 5 secs and go to the first div (movie) again?
I have flash as a gui to edit some docs. I'd like to caution the user to save before they close the window (or navigate away from it).ut can it be done with a .swf ?I think this was asked awhile back in this forum but I cant seem to locate it.
View 2 RepliesThe title essentially is the question, how do I open the .swf without the browser's control bar junk? and maximize the window?

getURL("http:url....);
to open the page on default browser. Only problem is the browser window is opening at the size it was last used. I like to see it opens full screen.

Is there a way (using flash) to grab the raw html from another browser frame? I'd like the following sequence:
Launch my window from [URL]...Launch window from another site [URL]..which has content I want to grab.Let my window grab the raw html content from the other window.
I doubt this is possible because it could be used for dastardly purpii, but just wanted to check.
I am putting together a fairly simple website for a Client, quick animation intro and a navigation menu all built with Flash CS4. Works in every browser except IE. I have downloaded the newest Flash Player but it still doesn't work. Actually, it lets me hear the sound of the animation, and I can even see the cursor turn into a finger as it scrolls over the links of the Flash content, but I cannot see the Flash content. The website is [URL]. The site is just my testing site for other projects, so nothing works throughout the site.

View 6 RepliesI'm building an as3 only web application and want to be able to include external html content within a flash 'window'. In AIR there is the flash.html.HTMLLoader class which makes this possible.
Can anyone point to an example of this being done in a flash as opposed to AIR application?
I am creating a flash movie that needs to be wider then the space available in the html. The html has about a 300 pixel space where I can a flash "launcher" movie (with a html menu bar beside it) and I would like to open a 600 pixel flash movie above everything else on the page (html menu bar and all) but not using a traditional popup window or browser window of any kind (so there will be no issue with popup blockers).
There are banner ads that put junk over top of html content
I have flash content online that is 1024x800 px but need it to resize/scale dynamically if the browser window is resized or someone with a browser height of less than 800 visits the website.
Been looking at stage.resize and event.resize but can't figure them out. Also have looked at swfobject and swffit (not actionscript I know) and can resize my content to a specific size using swfobject but not dynamically.
I have looked around for this and haven't found a way that clearly explains how to do this. More often than not the button will close the browser window in one but not another browser.
Is the a simple way of closing a browser window in all types of browser ( Or mainly Firefox, IE and safari on both Mac and PC ) with actionscript?

View 5 RepliesI'm running an online game site, and a few websites are really bad about embedding some of my games and stealing bandwidth.
To combat this, I replaced the original files with super-simple .swf files that redirected back to my own websites -- thus stealing back the traffic that they were stealing from me.
The problem came later when something changed with the new Flash player, and new windows no longer opened. For the life of me, I can't figure out how to get new windows to open. I've tried a few different approaches, but nothing appears to work.
So what I'm wondering is, can this even be done anymore -- where I can switch out a .swf that's being leeched with one that opens a window to my own site?
I am currently trying to work out how to get Flash to close the browser window it is running in. I've done a simple Javascript test version which works fine.. But if I try and use:
ExternalInterface.call("closeMyWindow");
Functionality it does not. My simple Javascript version is cut and paste below and attached to this message.

Can I get the obtain the size of the browser window in AS3?The best method I've found is to get the size with Javascript and send it to Flash as a FlashVar. One limitation of this method is that it doesn't give the current size if the window is resized.Is there a pure Flash way to do this?
View 2 RepliesI am building a kiosk app in flash and need to open browser windows whenever there is a URL link. The problem is that when the browser window opens, the fullscreen flash becomes a resizable window and the user has to close the window and open the flash app again to make it full screen again. So i'm wondering if there's any way I can open a browser window within the flash app sort of like an iframe or lightbox pop up? I've heard of this Native Window thing but I'm not sure what that is.

View 1 Repliesi have created a program in flash to run on several touchscreen kiosks here in my city. its a simple flash presentation and uses basic actionscript 2.0 for navigation etc. and its all working fine. now, the organizers want me to create a hit counter that can track how many people are using the kisosk services. so basically, each time someone hits the home button, a "hit" should be generated.
now i know of some scripts that use flash and PHP that can do that, but unfortunately i dont know how i can use it. The program that runs on the kisosks is just a flash file rendered as an exe and installed on the machines. i know basic PHP but as far as i am aware of, u need to run PHP through some HTML pages to be able to use it. besides, you would also need a php server to be able to get the hit counter working.
so my question is, is there a way to have the hits generated and stored in some kind of file (text, or xml or anything)? it has to be generated from within the swf file and stored to the (text, XML?) file.
I have a flex Air program that loads external content with the HTMLLoader.Now for some reason whenever I load a page that has any flash content a blank system window pops up outside of my program. It's completely blank, all white with min, max and close buttons.If I close it any flash content I loaded stops working. For the life of my I can't figure out what's happening and there's no messages in the console and no title for the window.

private function registerEvents():void

if you go to [url]....you will notice that you can not scroll the browser window with your mouse wheel if the cursor is over the flash object (entire website is one object). I need to make it so scrolling always affects the browser no matter the state of the cursor.
