ActionScript 3.0 :: Downloadable Files Within Flash Site?
May 8, 2011
I am building a website for a composer and he wants his users to be able to download a jpg of him for use in programs and a pdf with a short biography for the same use. I thought I could do this by creating a new URLRequest, but when i click it just opens a new window in Firefox. Here is the code I was using.
programPhoto_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseClick);
function mouseClick(event:MouseEvent):void{var request:URLRequest=new URLRequest("pictures/bio_pic.jpg");navigateToURL(request);}
[code].....

Okay, developing my first flash site with action script I have run into two problems I can't find fixes to via a kirupa search, one (which is not really an action script prop) is that I have created a text box that has a unique font in it, I look at it from another computer that does not have that font and I was surprised to see it was using times new roman, [is there a way to make my unique font viewable on all computers without making it a symbol?] next, I have a series of audio files on this site but I would also like the viewer to have the capabilities to download them, what is the code to allow this?

the flash4 published set of files, with a variety of skins tried, works well on the local drive, even when moved to a different folder structure. when index.html is opened on the remote web site, the browser (firefox3 and ie7) displays the player conrols and a rotating horizontal barber pole, green and black, but no flash video.some of the skins i've used are: SkinOverPlaySeekFullscreen.swf, nOverPlayStopSeekCaptionVol.swf and SkinUnderPlay.swf. all work locally but do not play the .flv file on the web site. no problem playing flv movies on the remote web site if the file set is created by dreamweaver.

Is it possible to include PDF files within a Flash site that can then subsequently be downloaded by users of the site? Or does this have to be done through dreamweaver or a combination of both?

I already made a game with flash, and I want to provide an easy download for people that would rather play offline. Thing is, i use a folder whole structure to dynamically load content per level. Folder structure looks like this, not that it matters that much[code]...
How should I go to distribute this? Should I just resort to make a zip file for the flash game and assume people know how to extract and open the swf? Is there any other way to port easily as an executable? Perhaps Adobe Air (not sure if this works though)?

how to load files to a Flash site Dynamically from a remote server. The first part was showing how to load a .txt file.
I have created a dynamic test field and give it an instance name of myTextArea. Then I uploaded the .txt file to my server in a testing folder. At the beginning of the paragraph in the .txt file I put homeText= Then going back to Flash CS3 I made an Action Script layer and entered the following code there;
[Code]....
But when I go to test the movie I get a "undefined" error (I guess it is an error) where the text should load in the dynamic text field.

We would like to build a flash video player into our corporate intranet site, currently we are evaluating JW Player and have come across and issue accessing the FLV files stored on a mirrored share drive that all users have access to on the local intranet.From what I can tell the Adobe flash plugin will not allow a SWF file hosted 'online' (intranet) to access a shared directory that the user has access to. Is there any way around this?

I've been working on my first full blown flash site for a few weeks, tackling problems as I encounter them, and I've learned a lot...but sometimes the simplest things I cannot figure out for the life of me. All I am trying to do is have some flash banner SWF files play within the portfolio page of my site. I don't want them to open in a pop up or anything just play within the page when the link on my site is clicked. I figured it would act like a movie clip and I could just drop it onto the stage, but when I do that it doesn't look right, loops continuously, and is not interactive. How can I make this work?

I am trying to prevent users from viewing my site and then simply going into their "temporary internet files" and stealing my swfs and XML files. I have been using a great .PHP code to stop this but now I am working on a server server that only uses .aspx files. Does anybody know of a way that I can stop files from being stored in the "temporary internet files" folder. I have encrypted the files but this is not good enough.

I have multiple .fla file (small online invitations etc) and I am trying to combine them as part of an online portfolio.
IS there a quick way of simply placing a .fla movie into another or do I have to use the swf.
And am I being silly - should this be done using Dreamweaver as the 'container"

I need to make this site like presentation for my next exam. I found a good template for a slide show. The presentation will be structured like this:
MAIN PAGE with sidebar which links to: slide one with slideshow 1slide two with slideshow 2slide three with slideshow 3slide four with slideshow 4 due to the nature of the code thou i cannot put the different slideshows into the same .swf file in different scenes (i copied and pasted them in each scene and modified the actionscript so they would refer to different pictures) because they will create conflict with each other. now they question is can i use the sidebar to link to different swf files but still make it look like it was just one big swf?

I am a novice Flash user as I have built one "members section" website using Flash CS4 (but used Actionscript 2).I am now in the process of learning ActionScript 3 and am working towards building a v2.0 of my original website. The original website uses a PHP authentication system, where a user logs in through a regular HTML page. Once authenticated, they are given the option to access the members section.I wish to eliminate the need to have our users log in through this HTML page as I wish this to be built directly into Members Section 2.0 however I haven't got slightest clue how to construct a users "login" function.
have users login (authenticate themselves) through the main page of this Flash project by the flash project referencing the MYSQL user names and password database. Additionally, there are three types of users that will be logging into this site (Status A users, Status B users and Status C users).
We need to protect various downloadable documents (Word files and PDF's) to ensure only those with the correct authentication are granted access to particular files. I.E. Status "A" users get access to everything, Status B users get access to almost everything and Status C users get access to very few files.
I assume the best method for this, is to store the files in three folders, once for each Status Class therefore Status A users will access files from the Status A folder, Status B users will only be able to access files from the "B" folder and so on. best method to protect these files from unauthorized access I.E. "C" users attempting to download a document that is only intended for "A" users?

I'm creating a simple online, Flash-based music player; the user clicks on a song in a DataGrid and then it plays, simple. I will display the song information with the ID3 method in the 'sound' class, but I don't want to hard-code all the songs into the ActionScript, because I might change them. I have created a "tracks" folder in the site directory; how can I extract the names of the files within that folder without knowing how many files there are, and inherently, without knowing the URLs?

My website allows users to upload photographs which I store on Amazon's S3. I store the original upload as well as an optimized image and a thumbnail. I want to allow users to be able to export all of their original versions when their subscription expires. So I am thinking the following problems arise.Could be a large volume of data (possibly around 10GB)How to manage the download process - eg make sure if it gets interrupted where to start from again, how to verify successful download of files.Should this be done with individual files or try and zip the files and download as one file or a series of smaller zipped files.Are there any tools out there that I can use for this? I have seen Fzip which is an Actionscript library for handling zip files. I have an EC2 instance running that handles file uploads so could use this for downloads also - eg copy files to EC2 from S3, Zip them then download them to user via Flash downloader, use Fzip to uncompress the zip folder to user's hard drive.
