View 1 RepliesI need to download a file for example say, a pdf file from a url and store it in applicationsDirectory or ApplicationStorage directory, I have a code to download but its opening save dialog box to get the userinput for where to save the downloaded file. This is the code that I am using
downloadURL.url = urlLocation;
configureListeners(file);
file.download(downloadURL);
I need to download the file with out opening any window, and file needs to be downloaded to ApplicationStorage directory.
When I have a class linked to a MovieClip in my library and that class takes an argument in its constructor method. That class will compile properly ONLY when it's located in my top-level directory (same dir as the .fla and Document.as files). If I move that class to a deeper directory, say com.place, and update the package statement and symbol link appropriately, the compiler will generate error "1136: Incorrect number of arguments. Expected 0."Create flash project and put a rectangle on the stage. Covert it to symbol and assign it to class TestPanel - or whatever you choose. Also configure the fla so that is uses a Document (Main) class.Create Main.as and TestPanel.as in the same folder. In the Main class, instantiate a instance of TestPanel and add it to the stage. Flash will, predictably, add the rectangle symbol and everything is fine.Now modify TestPanel so that its constructor method takes a Number and have Main.as pass some number to TestPanel.[code]You now get the error: 1136: Incorrect number of arguments.Expected 0.When I move the TestPanel.as into a deeper directory, Flash somehow is looking elsewhere for the base class for Symbol, even though I'm mapping that Symbol to com.place.TestPanel.
View 4 RepliesI'm having an issue with getting a simple flash image swap file displaying on a website I'm building and was wondering if anyone can tell me what I've missed. I built the image swap slideshow which is just a simple blend through four images. It uses the loadMovie to import the images from the directory the movie is sitting in so the loadMovie command just references the jpg files directly with no extra directory info. The swf file and the image files it loads are all in a subdirectory off the root called flash. The page I want to display the swf movie on is actually the index html page in the root directory of the website. So I used this html to display the swf file.
[Code]...
The code below on works when my xml and swf file are located in the same directory as the html file. However, when i move both file to a sub directory, nothing shows. I have tried using the absolute path but not much luck.

I recently installed FMS 3.5.1 and then upgraded it to 3.5.3 on a Windows 2003 server. In both versions, I can not stream .f4v or .mp3 from a subfolder. The .flv file plays fine. I used the default configuration settings, sample .f4v and .flv files provided by the installer. I used the sample player in C:Program FilesAdobeFlash Media Server 3.5samplesvideoPlayer as the client.
[Code]...
I've spent like the past 5 days trying to get this to work as a client has given me 100GB of videos that are in subfolders. For some reason I'm unable to play media from any subdirectory in vod.
All of the media & subfolders are here:
C:Program Files (x86)AdobeFlash Media Server 3.5applicationsvodmedia
This works:
C:Program Files (x86)AdobeFlash Media Server 3.5applicationsvodmediasample.mp4
Server: rtmp://localhost/vod/_definst_
Stream: mp4:sample.mp4
This doesn't work:
C:Program Files (x86)AdobeFlash Media Server 3.5applicationsvodmediasubfoldermovie.mp4
Server: rtmp://localhost/vod/_definst_/subfolder/
Stream: mp4:movie.mp4
I've also tried as the server rtmp://localhost/vod/subfolder/ but it does not work.
I've also tried in the stream "mp4:subfolder/movie.mp4" that doesn't work either.
getting a rotating banner I downloaded to actually work on my home page. So I'm using FrontPage 2003. I've got my index page open and I select Insert, Picture, Movie in Flash Format. I browse through my subfolder and select the swf file. But it will not play!However, when I follow the exact same steps, but on a page that is located within the subfolder where all the files are located, the video plays just fine. So I know it probably has something to do with my file path, but I just can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. My files are located like this:
root -
index.html
subfolder-
(There is the deploy folder which has two subfolders in it - banner and js.)
deploy/
banner/content/images/image1.jpg
banner/content/images/image2.jpg[code]......
I've tried copying and pasting all of the files so they're in the root folder, and then embedding the swf, and it still doesn't work.I've tried editing the banner.xml page and telling all the folder paths to start from the root folder, and that hasn't worked either.
I have loaded an external swf in my main movie, the swf is a picture gallery which loads images from an XML file. The directory structure is as below[code]...
When i run the main movie, it is looking for the Thumbs folder in the root folder. How can i make the images load from the subfolder?
Do i need to change the relative path in the XML?
I want disable IDM(internet download manager)'s download video option from my youtube videos.
View 1 RepliesSo 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'm working at a company which has high security environment.Akamai Download Manager starts to download a trial Flash CS5. However, it stops quickly and downloads nothing (zero byte).I want to download a trial Flash CS5 without Akamai Download Manager!
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.

Problem is its opening the file rather than giving a download this file option.
I want to download files from the server side to client side without prompting a window to the user to download when any updates happen at server side.Right now I am using urlstream class but first file is downloading completely rest of the files contents downloading partially.

that can open and save XML data (using the v10 plug-in). The client wants to add a drop down populated with a list of the XML files saved in a Calculations folder. not exactly sure if AS3 can dynamically read the contents of a directory (this would have to work both online and when run as a local app, so server side scripting is not an option). Right now my only idea is to use a manually created XML file that contains a list of the other files in the directory, but this seems quite cumbersome, I rather have the app. just dynamically read wha in the folder.Flash image browsers seem to be able to read all J in folder X, is this kind of thing done strictly through server side scripting?

is it possible to get the current directory the swf is in? like if I have a movie in a folder called "folder01", i would like to have some code in the movie that returns "folder01".. and if it's in "anotherfolder", it returns "anotherfolder", and so on..

View 6 RepliesI am making a site, this site is in a folder, inside of this folder I have the index.html file and a load of other html files. I then have a folder, flashheader. with a flash header that has 5 tabs on it. When I click a button, I want to navigate to another URL, this URL being in the parent.
PHP Code:
tab1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, myBtnClicked1);
function myBtnClicked1(e1:MouseEvent):void {
var url:String = "../index.html";
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
try {
navigateToURL(request, '_self');
} catch (e1:Error) {
trace("Error occurred!");
}}
There is my code, it listened for the tab to be clicked, and when it is, it loads the URL.

I am trying to create a Flash file where it will read the contents of a directory and automatically compile them into a simple slideshow with basic transitions (simple fade-in/fade-out transition). The files that will be read are either JPG, GIF, SWF. Is this possible with just using ActionSCript (either 2 or 3) ?
View 2 RepliesI am doing some testing with various methods of deep linking in a flash site and have created a test site with the following structure:
/index.html
/simple.swf
/two/index.html
three/index.html
The index.html file located at the root of the site loads the simple.swf file using an absolute reference to the file (view the source of [URL]). The index.html file located in directories "two" and "three" are exactly the same as the index.html file in the root directory with the exception that I have added a defined a "base" parameter pointing to "../". [Right now, I am passing the same "flashvars" parameter in each of these files, however, once I resolve this issue, I will change the flashvars value.]
For some reason, the simple.swf file loads in the root level index.html file but not in the index.html file located in directories "two" or "three". I am confused why this is not working since I am using an absolute reference to the file. The only possible meaningful difference I can see is that the simple.swf file is only located in the root directory.
I insert my swf using a relative url to the file, and I want the swf to call a javafunction but i get no response. why the swf is not in the same directory as the html file.
my as:
function checkInput() {
var result:Object = ExternalInterface.call("checkTheInput");
myTxt.text = String(result);
}

I'm using the following code to open a directory, place the directory listing into an array, and then only deal with certain file types (I don't want the user to be able to select individual files, just a directory):
newMediaFile.browseForDirectory("Select your file/files");
and then later in the code, asign the listing to an array called list:
list = newMediaFile.getDirectoryListing();
I was wondering if there is some way to use filesFilter with browseForDirectory to retrict the file types added to list when I use getDirectoryListing? Currently I have a conditional checking the suffix of each file.
I try loading my video from a swf file using flvplayback component using the script below
[Code]....
but I notice that the swf file doesnt link the video instead i have to place my video the same directory with the swf file and change to flvPlayback.source = "Listening_to_Community_Voices.flv"; Does that mean the video file im linking must be on the same directory as the swf or did I wrote my code wrongly.?
