I want to download the free game at [url]... On loading the game, I found that the flash file wrapper is located at[url]...However, if I download this file, it does not have the game as it looks for main.swf. My question is, is there a way to download the actual file?
View 1 RepliesI have movieA.swf, movieB.swf, movieC.swf. movieB.swf loads movieC.swf.
I have a button in movieC.swf, which when clicked, I want it to unload itself.
I've tried loads of things... but nothing seems to work. The empty movie in which movieC.swf gets loaded into movieB.swf is called, emptyHolder, say for example.
In movieB.swf, I've tried to do the following:
_root.dummyHolder = emptyHolder.
And then movieC.swf, the button code is:
myButton.onRelease = function() {_root.dummyHolder.unloadMovie();}
Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to work.
I have a few buttons rigged up for downloading word.doc, mp3 etc
Problem is its opening the file rather than giving a download this file option.
So I basically have used the fileReference class to allow the user to download a determined file if he wants to.
I use the file.download(URL) function and it works well.
However, the file is downloaded and saved to the hard drive using only the flash player. The browser is not aware of the download, and thus, if I want to show the progress of the download I'd have to make some progress bar myself. I know how to do it, but it would become really tedious and take too much UI space.
Isn't there a damn way in Flash to "send" a determined file to the browser so that it prompts the user to download it? It's an image file, so navigateToURL doesn't cut it since it will just display the image, both if I use a new tab or the current one.
I can't seem to download the flash files from the address.i click on page info and find the embeded flash,but can't download it. Another, how can I convert flash files from youtube to my ipod? I found an excellent flv converter, but not knew if it could convert flash from youtube.How to make flash suitalbe for youtube?
View 4 RepliesI'm trying to download a zip file through Flash via a php file using this code:
FLASH:
getURL("download.php?filename=TheFileName.zip");
PHP:
<?php
// download.php
[code]....
Trouble is when I run Flash, the dialog box for the download just picks up the php file and not the zip file.
Basically I created a flash site and uploaded it onto the server provider the client chose using cute ftp. That's all fine but now they want to add a link enabling the viewer to download a PDF straight to their desktop. As I can't upload a PDF file to the Flash library, was wondering if anyone had any tips on creating this function?

View 1 RepliesI am creating a web site using Flash CS3 actionscript 2.0.I know how to but the one extra thing I need to do for this site is create a button that anyone looking at the site can click and it automatically downloads a zip file containing music. (it's a site for a band who want their fans to be able to download their music.)A lot of the information I am finding pertains to PHP, which I don't understand. As I use action script 2.0, I am not familiar with much code.[code]but I most be doing something wrong b/c an error always comes up when I check the code.Also, I make a button, give it an instance name, but I don't enter that anywhere in the action script.so I know something has to be wrong, b/c the only thing I do is create a zip file, name it and enter it in the action script.

View 1 RepliesSince Flash 8 FileReference API was introduced, and file upload/download through Flash finally became possible. The API has one troubling limitation though, which is the 100mb limit for file transfer.
I'm developing a browser based file transfer utility, and I would have wanted to implement it with solely Flash. It has to have the ability to manage far larger files than 100mb. Does anyone know a way to overcome this limitation, or have another solution for file upload/download through Flash 8?
I know how to setup a preloader and I have that working. But when I debug the flash application and simulate a download, it has a blank background until a few seconds have passed. I know it is "downloading" the swf file and I'm wondering if I can show a progress bar for that, or do I need to have the swf file as small as possible and pre load everything needed and have all assets as a separate file I fetch? I found something with ProgressEvent.PROGRESS but this only loads after the flash file is finished downloading.

View 2 RepliesI updated the flash library XML/SWF (chart library) to the latest version on my web application but the users still see the charts with the old library which is saved in there browser cache.How can I force the browsers of my users to download the latest version of the SWF files.I can't add a parameter at the end of the SWF file like : charts.swf?v=1234.
If I do that I get an error because the chart library load dynamically other SWF files of the library. The charts.swf file will be the new version but the other files will still be from the older version and I will get an error...
I'm making an interactive cd in flash, I'm wondering how I can prompt the user with a way of saving video files (.mp4) to their computers.
Ideally they would click on a 'download video' button and then would be prompted with the usual window allowing them to choose where to save the file and name it.
Is there a way to do this within flash?

View 3 RepliesI generate a HTML page with VB.Net which stores several pinks to files. These links are formatted with JavaScript looking like the Windows-Explorer with folders and files. The problem: There are only download links for the files, not for Folders. A folder can contain Subfolders ,a List of Files or a combination of both. So if I want to download a folder, I have to click manually on every file-link. I have not the possibility to insert PHP or another Server-side language. my question now is: Is there a client side way to Download them by click on a Folder? I prefer Javascript but If it isn't possible Flash will be ok also.

I'm using InDesign to create an interactive SWF of a document.
For normal Flash projects, I can create an executable (*.exe) file that includes the Flash codec so that the viewer doesn't need to install Flash beforehand.
Can I create something similar for the SWF file created by InDesign?
I'm using CS5 Design Premium. Intermediate knowledge in InDesign, basic in Flash, will likely need clear steps.
[Embed(source="data/fire.swf")] static public var movieFire:Class;
I have some multiframe swf file and I want to have control of them. For example, I can use gotoandplay and gotoandstop functionality.
I tried something like: var m:MovieClip = new movieFire() as MovieClip; but it turns out when I tried to get totalFrames, m.totalFrames, it gives me zero, and gotoand* functions don't work either. How can I correctly control the swf file embedded in actionsript 3.0 (No Flex component)?
