ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Embedded Swf With ExternalInterface Calling
Apr 8, 2012
I have a swf doing some javascript calls. It works fine if the swf object is embeded as part of html. When creating it thru javascript, the code doesn't work. I've tried back &forth for a while, no luck. attached my code snippet below,
/* javascript */
<script language="javascript">var g31=false,g32=false,g33=-1,g1=-1;function f31(p){ alert(p)}
function f34() { g31=true; g33>=0&&(window.clearTimeout(g33),g33=-1);

I have tried this for a couple of days. I created a swf object in window.onload (also tried load it directly), call an as function from js. statically embedded swf works for both IE8 and FF, FF also fine for dynamically loading. externalinterface.call("echo", "as returns " + b); always shows "as returns false".
//js
<script language="javascript">
var containerready=false,flashready=false;

I'm trying to call a function declared with ExternalInterface in a Flash swf, using JavaScript.It worked once, but all of a sudden, it stopped working.I have a debug version of the Flash Player, but no errors occur in Flash.Not even a "Security Sandbox Error" or something. The only error I get is the following error in JavaScript Error: Error in Actionscript. Use a try/catch block to find error.I'm using AS3, exporting for Flash Player 10 and testing on Firefox 3/Safari 4, on a Mac.

I have a SWF that's embedded in a page with an IFrame. (well, it's actually another webpage with a SWF embeded in THAT that's in the IFrame).I'm trying to use ExternalInterface to call a Javascript function that resides on the uppermost parent page (the one that's actually loaded into the browswer). Not surprisingly, this isn't working.Is there any way to direct an ExternalInterface call to a parent web page? Or is there any other better way of doing this?

I don't know JavaScript. The first code block I show below comes from someone who helped me, and he's not available now.My swf is a quiz that the user should not close until they're finished because their progress will be lost. So I've added the following javascript in the html page:[code] HOWEVER, once the user finishes the quiz and hits the Results page, this alert is unnecessary (and actually inaccurate) because their results have been saved to a database.[code]

I have a swf that opens up inside a colorbox window. When the video finishes playing, I make an externalinterface call to a javascript function to close the colorbox.I'm trying to execute the following AS3 code:
ExternalInterface.call('parent.$.fn.colorbox.close()')
I can't seem to get this to work. The colorbox won't close.I also tried this to see if I was just making the wrong function call, but this didn't work either: ExternalInterface.call ('alert("hello world")')However, if I browse to the url of the swf file, so that it doesn't open inside the colorbox, the alert() call works just fine.

I can't get this to work even after making sure to set "allowScriptAccess" to always. I successfully put the flash movie in the browser and call ReceiveDataFromFlashMovie() and print "Got here" but it seems like GetFlashMovieObject() only returns NULL according to an error message in Internet Explorer. Am I missing something? Head of the HTML file:

This is definitely a huge BUG in flash player 9.Here is some info if someone had run into similar problem?If I try to align flash to: StageAlign.BOTTOMorStageAlign.BOTTOM_RIGHTr
StageAlign.BOTTOM _LEFT and then if I try to resize my flash using externalinterface which will call outside JS that resize div around it, you`ll get flicker effect on your flash.However, if I align Flash to: StageAlign.TOPorStageAlign.TOP_RIGHTorStageAlign.TOP_LEFTand then use external script for resize, everything works fine.

I would like to be able to create and call an Array dynamically. So to pass a name through a function and create an array based on that name.Then to store values into sections in the array. I got the creating the array dynamically working, but I can't seem to store into it.
Code:
Sort = function (numOfVars,Name,toSort){
This works
_global[Name] = New Array(New Array (),New Array());
This does not work
_global[Name][i][c]= 3
This does not work
_global[Name + "[i][c]"]= 3
This does not work
_global[[Name][i][c]]= 3
}

I have done a bit of searching for this and have come up short. I have seen a few others post this question but never seen an answer... So here I am hoping I can find it here!Ok, so my problem is that I need to call MC's from the library dynamically depending on a number of previous user chosen options... and the names are all fairly similar but with a number or word difference...So here is my problem...I need to be able to call a clip such as the following
ActionScript Code:
var1+"mc_name"+var2+"mc_name"

So basically my file is a photo gallery. There are two ways to click through the photos - the previous/next buttons or the camera icons on the floor plan diagram. The cameras are dynamically generated from XML, into a cameraHolder mc.
I have the controls working independently, but I need to have them working together (ie: if you click the previous/next buttons, the camera icons would change state) I don't have all the over/selected/visited states working yet, but I don't really need help with that.
What I really need to be able to do is figure out how to call the camera icon clips. See line 138 for where I tried to trace one: trace(cameraHolder.camera0); It returns as undefined.?
Also is is possible to call a mc where part of the name is a variable? For example, you'd call something like "camera" + whoIsOn instead of camera0?
FYI: this file is definitely a work in progress. I kind of slapped together two examples to get what I currently have...

First off, I'm rather n00b at AS3 so I'm sorry if this is a terrible question. I've searched and can't find direct reference/solution to this exact issue.

I have a movie with multiple languages. Most of the fonts used are embedded. What I've been doing is creating a new MovieClip for each language and in that movie clip assigning a font that can display that language, then depending on the language, load the appropriate MovieClip. I wonder though if there is a way to just change the font dynamically. However, it would be changing from one embedded font to another.
Would it be efficient to just make one generic text MovieClip with a certain font in it, then just title the movie clip by the font, and load that movie clip whenever I want to use that font?
like so:
ActionScript Code:
var title = new Arial;
title.textBox.text = "Page Title";
Also: Then could I change the font size dynamically if I did it the later way?

I am calling some data from php, which simply retrieves some data from MySQL. The tables retrieved are called dynamically and so I have a list of those tables sent to actionscript below and called by event.target.data.its and event.target.data.ces. These will have a list of the tables called. I then send the name/value pairs to actionscript from php by using those table names (all inside of php here) dynamically.
$sql3 = "SELECT * FROM `specialties`";
$getit = mysql_query($sql3);
while($row2 = mysql_fetch_array($getit)){
for($i=0;$i<sizeof($itlist);$i++){

I have a function gameTimerInterval() set to run every half second. Every x of those intervals (the value of x varies in this situation), it creates another interval that calls the function birdTimerInterval() every y of these new intervals. Basically, gameTimerInterval() determines when a new flock of birds will enter, and then birdTimerInterval() controls how each individual bird in the flock comes in (one at a time). The thing is, there can be multiple flocks coming on the stage at the same time, so birdTimerInterval() will need to receive a parameter so it knows which group of birds to control. The only way I could see achieving this is doing something like dynamically passing the name of the interval that's calling the function, as I don't know how I could use global variables or arrays to distinguish which flock should be moving.

I have made a presentation with voice over, in which the images and audio files are loaded externelly from the folder where the swf was placed. the voice over files are in MP3 format, loaded with the script follows
mysound = new Sound();
mysound.loadSound("voice1.mp3");
mysound.start(0,0);
It works well in IE but not in Firefox.

I have combed through the forums and read every font embedding article I could find and still I don't understand what's going on. I have created a simple test case that I have attached to this post. Hopefully someone can tell me what I'm doing wrong.Here's the situation ...ultimately, my goal is to be able to dynamically create text fields with embedded fonts (I'm using Arial or Arial Unicode) that can display a variety of languages (English and Russian are the primary ones I'm working on right now). In the attached sample, I have added a font to the library and set it to use Arial Unicode.I have 3 text fields on the stage: Field 1 is generated entirely from code using createTextField, Field 2 is a design-time text field that uses the embedded library font, and Field 3 is a design-time text field that uses basic Arial rather than Arial Unicode.For the 2 design-time fields I have embedded the glyphs necessary to display English and Russian as well as some others.I also have a few buttons on the stage to create the 3rd text field (using createtextfield), send english or russian text to all 3 fields, and turn embedding on/off of the generated text field.
Here are the results I've found:With embedding OFF:English shows up fine in all 3 text fields (in the generated one, it uses the system default font instead).Russian shows up in the generated field and in the 3rd field (basic Arial) but NOT in the field that uses the embedded library font.With embedding ON:NOTHING shows up in the generated text field the 2 design time fields function the same as they did before.I REALLY don't understand why the design-time text field doesn't work when it uses the library version of the font. Why should that matter? I also don't get why even ENGLISH doesn't work in the generated field when embedding is on.
//EDIT: I just tried using Arial as the font for the generated text field rather than using the linkage name for the library font and now the embedding works. So I guess my main question is why it doesn't work using the library font....I thought that using the library font .
