ActionScript 3.0 :: ExternalInterface On IE?

Dec 1, 2009

I'm trying to use ExternalInterface to expose functions of my as3 code to javascript. It is working very well, following the Flash CS3 help on Firefox and Chrome browsers, however on IE 8 things are getting hard...
 
At my HTML page I used the help-suggested functions to confirm the connection between js and as:

CS4 - ExternalInterface & FireFox V3.013?

Aug 19, 2009

I've spent about a day on this... Publishing a swf for AS3/FP9, following the example in the ActionScript 3 documentation to get two-way communication between a SWF and javascript. Works great in IE.

I've sifted through what seems like a million posts on the subject, with people getting the same result... the function I/they are attempting to call doesn't exist.

In the documentation example, there's a function to find/return either the SWF as an object or embed tag depending on which browser you're viewing the page in.

ExternalInterface To Work With VB.NET?

Apr 15, 2012

I just had this conversation with a colleague and I am now turning to the SO community to provide evidence based on fact, not opinion, as to which tool would be ideal to grow into in the current programming environment. Director or Flash?I am deciding if I should stick with Flash or bother learning Director 11.5. He want to know if he should stick with Director or learn Flash. No, we don't work together. Hehe..

EDIT:

I've gotten ExternalInterface to work with VB.NET, hence the need for Director in the context of its ability to do File System IO and "non-flv" video are eliminated. No if only VB could do the kinds of animation that Flash could do, I could turn towards being a "real" programmer...

ActionScript 1/2 :: ExternalInterface With Grabbing URL?

Nov 13, 2009

I have a flash menu that needs to play a different scene depending on which page it is embedded into. So I need the it to grab the URL of the html page it is on and do some simple test on it to figure out what scene it should be on. *For the record, I tried to do it without scenes but the frame jumping started doing some cracked out things

Code: (on a single empty frame in Scene 1) import flash.external.ExternalInterface; var urlPath; urlPath = ExternalInterface.call("window.location.href.toStr  ing()"); getURL("javascript:alert('"+urlPath+"');"); if (urlPath == "http://www.awesome.com/Portfolio/portfolio.html"){ gotoAndPlay("Scene 3", "portfoliopage"); } else if (urlPath ==

[code]....

Somehow, my urlPath isn't getting the correct value, and therefore the if-else latter isn't functioning appropriately. I am posting the website on my test server, so the http addresses are correct, and the if-else latter functions perfectly when I just change the conditions to 'true'/'false', so neither is the problem. The problem is that the alert shows me that the value of urlPath is undefined, and so then all conditions in the latter evaluate to false.

ActionScript 3.0 :: ExternalInterface And Wmv Player?

Jan 28, 2009

I have a problem in the communication between as3 and javascript: simply I want to use a flash movie in the same page where I included an wmv object player. When I try to invoke a function on JS (from as3) I note that all the normal playstate and commands to handle the wmv player are inverted. (for example the movie is playing the variable document.Player.playstate is set to 2-paused and so on). Even further I figured out I have big problems in fullscreen/set volume commands. Does anyone face this problem too? Where can I find useful links?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Closing Swf From ExternalInterface?

Sep 3, 2008

[URL]..Above is a link to a component I'm working on. I've overlayed one swf with another swf which is going to display a sort of advertisement slide. What I'm trying to achieve is that when the adbanner (id="mediabanner") reads an xml file and reads "false", it then calls the ExternalInterface function "hideFlash" and in turn closes the swf so that the swf beneath it can be seen.

Could someone view the page source and let me know what I am doing wrong? The hideFlash function is being called, but its not actually hiding the swf.

ActionScript 2.0 :: ExternalInterface.addCallback In IE?

Jan 30, 2009

This is so frustrating...I'm going to do my best to be concise here, so forgive me if I leave too much out.I'm also going to try to simplify so I don't get bogged in details. I have a set of html pages that guide you through a tutorial. The different pages are REALLY just one big page that has divs hide and unhide as you go through the flow via previous and next buttons.

There are 4 pages which play a video clip. Each video clip .swf contains an FLVPlayback component that plays an .flv, and uses an .swf skin file. All these things play fine. If you're watching a video and you click "NEXT" the sound is still playing because of course you're still on the same page. So we looked into it and found out about the whole ExternalInterface.addCallback thing.

ActionScript 2.0 :: ExternalInterface And Ajax, Old Xml Loads Not New?

I've used ExternalInterface.call for an onclick flash event to load some xml with XMLHttpRequest. the xml loads. but if i change the xml file on the server, the old xml file loads for the client, not the new one. i believe the problem is that the browsers are caching the results. i heard that this could usually be fixed by returning false from ur JavaScript onclick handler. but i dont have a JavaScript onclick handler, i have a flash onclick handler.

Professional :: ExternalInterface To Javascript/Html ?

Aug 4, 2010

AdobeTV showed a way to allow Flash to "talk" to an HTML page via javascript using the ExternalInterface method. There seems to be a catch. You need to use the ID of the swf in the parameters to have it all fit together and you can only put the ID="swf" into the IE section of the Dreamweaver generated javascript or into the non-IE section. Putting it in both didn't work and the author mentioned only putting in one of them specifically.Is there a way to do this that would work in both sets of generated Javascript?
