ActionScript 3.0 :: ExternalInterface.call Inside Iframe Not Working In IE?
Jan 14, 2009
The structure of my site is as follows:
mainPage.html contains - menu.swf & iframe1
iframe1 contains - subpage.html
subpage.html contains - subMenu.swf & contentpage.html
The way it works is that when menu.swf is clicked it changes the .src of iframe1 to load the appropriate subpage.html. Then when you click the subMenu.swf it changes the .src of iframe2 to load the appropriate contentpage.html[URL]..
It all works perfectly in Firefox but in IE the ExternalInterface call from the subMenu never reaches the container page to change the .src of the iframe.It seems as though it's something to do with the .swf being inside the iframe because I am still able to call a javascript function from within the iframe using an html button.

I am having a problem using ExternalInterface.call to a javascript function. I have used this method many times in many places and at some point during this project, it was working, but now it stalls my Flash file when executed. I have the function: var initialize=function(){ExternalInterface.call("SCOInitialize");statusTxt.text="initializing"; } On my html page, there is a SCOInitialize function that works perfectly if I call it via the html page: <body onLoad="SCOInitialize()"> ... </body> When I make the call using flash... initialize(); ...the Flash file just gets hung up and it actually wont execute the second line of code in the function: statusTxt.text="initializing"; What is the deal? I can't for the life of me figure out why it won't

I've got a very basic test file that just fires a Javascript function with an alert() in it (i.e. alert("You clicked a button."). In IE this works just fine, but in Firefox it wasn't doing a thing. I finally realised it might be SWFObject, so I published the HTML file straight from Flash and all of sudden my ExternalInterface call works perfectly in Firefox as well.
Here's my SWFObject embed code:
PHP Code:
<script type="text/javascript">var params = {};
var flashvars = {};
var attributes = {id:"testTool", name:"testTool"}
params.allowscriptaccess = "always";
params.bgcolor = "#B0E3DE";
[Code] .....
I've been googling this for about 4 hours and there are lots of mentions of the SWFObject requiring an ID attribute for addCallBack calls (hence the attributes object), and I've been through a whole bunch of posts in various forums but can't pinpoint a single solution for ExternalInterface.call() not working with SWFObject in Firefox.

I've put together a slideshow in AS3. When the user clicks on an image in the slideshow, I'm using FlashLightboxInjector to bring up a Lightbox version of the image they just clicked on. In my AS3, each time I add a thumbnail into the slideshow, ExternalInterface.call is supposed to call a function within FlashLightboxInjector that appends the image onto a <div>. The div is used as a reference to Lightbox to know what the image path/title are.
Code:
public function buildPicArray():void
{
for each(var pic:XML in picXML.photo)
[Code].....
This works fine when I don't use a background-image in the body css. However, when I do use a background image, none of the myFlashLightboxInjector.append() functions are called or the appends aren't functioning correctly because they don't show up in Firebug, there is just an empty div. So, when I click on a thumbnail, no Lightbox image comes up.

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 have some actionscript that makes a
ExternalInterface.call('someFunction');
call.is it possible to reference the html object that made the call to someFunction directly using the ExternalInterface.call call?
Assume that the object that makes the call also has some Callbacks (via ExternalInterface.addCallback) that are accessible via javascript.
Currently:
Actionscript source
ExternalInterface.call("someFunction");
ExternalInterface.addCallback("someCallback",someASfunction);
[code]....

On a page I have a an iFrame and a swf, I've been trying to use ExternalInterface to pass values from the swf to the iFrame, anyone ever tried this and had any luck? I won't be able to post any code until tomorrow, will update then if needed.Here is a visualization of what I need to accomplish, perhaps if it can't be done the way I said someone will have a suggestion of another way to accomplish this.

I'm trying to use ExternalInterface.Call to call a JavaScript function to launch a lightbox window. So far I have this:
AS3:
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("launchLB", "" + aUrl + "");
JavaScript:
function launchLB(url) {
alert(url);
[Code]....
I get the alert but I can't get the lightbox window to display. When my as code makes the ExternalInterface call I get what looks like a page refresh and a blank browser window.

I need to get a javascript var in my Flash application. I like to be able to just set a variable in the javascript (client constraints) rather than define a function.
Can this be done? I am trying to use the ExternalInterface.call()
AS:
ExternalInterface.call("function(){return window.someVar}", null);
JS:
var someVar = "Test";
This does not work and I suspect it is because the ExternalInterface.call() does not like the anonymous function.

I have a function defined in JavaScript like so:
function fadeBack() {
alert("fadeBack called");
};
I call that function from my Flash file like so:
import flash.external.*;
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("fadeBack");
This works in both Safari and Chrome, but for some reason Firefox won't ever call the function. Still, I can't figure this out. How can I fix it?

We have been given some code that does a URLRequest call which is really slow to respond, so I was looking to make it pull the data from the page, as it is already on the page.[code]I have tried to replace it with this (actionscript is definitely not my forte):[code]I am using addCallBack as that is what the editor suggested via autocomplete, unfortunately it doesn't seem to work. Unfortunately I cannot go back to the developer at this time.The error message is:Call to a possibly undefined method addCallback through a reference with static type flash.external:ExternalInterface

I have a Flash movie that is loaded inside an iframe. In this Flash movie I have a link to a Word document. When using IE the link does not work. This only happens when using a Word doc, inside the iframe with IE. Please see [URL] Click on the first link using IE, you will see a window popping out and then disappearing instantly.

I have a flash navigation on an HTML site. When I click on a button in flash I want it to bring up a new page inside an Iframe. Is there anyway where I can get the on release command to send a variable to the browser to bring up that page in that frame?

It just reloads the animation instead of going to the html page the button is pointed to. I can give a link to it if you need.

Is it possible at all yet to have an iframe inside your SWF file that loads a website with no external code..?or what about a html parser like this: as3htmlparser.sourceforge.net .can this parser do something like im asking..? or are cross site xml policies needed for such operations..?
im trying to find a way to check an external URL for specific data, but am finding it virtually impossible because of needed cross site domain policy's..im trying to accomplish this with only internal AS3 code and no server side code..

I am having an issues with ExternalInterface.call to return a value in IE. It is working fine in Firefox. Eventhough I changed the "allowscript access" to "always", still it is not working. Is there any thing that I need to change in Flex or the HTML to make this work? or this is a security setting in IE?

Basically, I have a DIV, which I've set to z-index: 100. I have an iframe which I set to z-index: 0. My 100 div is ontop of the frame on a normal webpage, but I have to load a flash page in the frame. Unfortunately the flash in the frame shows overtop of my 100 DIV. I can't set the z-index of the flash object because I don't control that webpage!

I have a draggable popup window that has a title bar and an iframe in its content area. The iframe has a flash object embedded in it. It works great in all browser except for IE8 (IE7 and IE9 work fine). IE8 has a bad drawing problem when the window is being moved. Here's an example:Open the example in IE8, or if you're using IE9, hit F12 for developer tools, then select Browser Mode: IE8 using IE8 Standards.Drag the window around quickly and you'll see a very bad redraw of the iframe.

I am trying to make a JS function call from a child swf, but I am running into issues when the child swf is loaded on a different domain than the parent.
Here's what my scenario looks like:
my HTML test page is on domainA.com and loads the parent swf, which is located in [URL].
The parent swf loads a child swd located in domainC.com.
After the child swf is loaded I want to make a JS function call, but when I call ExternalInterface.call("myJSFunction", "params"), the JS code never gets executed.
When I placed all of the files under the same domain, everything works fine.
