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'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 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:

how to get my dynamic textfield height and send it to a javascript to resize my embedded swf. I have been digging around for 2 days now and can't figure out how to do this. I've found lots of examples on sending text back and forth but not on how to send the height.

We build a flash application in ActionScrip 3 which provides JS external interface calls. We load another swf on our swf. If we don't enable external swf, any JS calls through external interface works fine. However, if external swf is active, at some points when there is any JS calls through external interface, Flash player plugin crashes which also bring down the whole browser, I see that on IE and FF.
what may cause external interface call to crash Flash plugin?

I'm trying to create an overlay containing a flash player that is shown when a user clicks on a link. The div containing the player starts with display:none in CSS. Upon clicking, the div will be shown, and JS will use ExternalInterface to configure and start the player. The JS configures the player when it catches a "flash ready" event, which is fired by Flash on ADDED_TO_STAGE.All this works, except that the ExternalInterface callbacks are never created. The JS and AS3 work fine if the player is shown upon page load, or is hidden with visibility:hidden instead of display:none. I am aware that Flash will not be initialized with display:none, and this works as expected: when the Flash is unhidden, it fires its events and correctly initializes everything else (eg. GUI, other internal stuff). The only thing that doesn't happen as expected is that my ExternalInterface callbacks are not added.
ExternalInterface.available is true. It's not a timing problem, because even after several minutes the callbacks are still not present. The strangest bit is that the flash is able to call JS, fires JS events fine, and the code to fire the events comes after the code to add the callbacks. There are no errors thrown by any of the AS3 code. I'm seeing this problem in both Chrome and Firefox.

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 need to be able to make the flash player lose focus to the browser by actionscript alone (when the user clicks a button) or whatever, but from within the flash player, not from the user actually clicking outside of the flash player.These are embedded flash files with allowScriptAccess="never", so I can not use ExternalInterface at all to call browser js to window.focus or whatever.

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 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 am using Flash CS5 and when I exprt my file to swf I notied that after exporting and playing it in Flash player (on my desktop) I can change the size of the window and the scene itself eventthough I have set the width and height dimension to e.g. 468x60.
So, the bad thing is that if I ahve some objects that are moving from this area and in banner I do not see them in flash player I can see all which is not good.
Is there a setting in export option to disable this behavior or some actionscript, so my client will not be able see the "mess-behind-the-scenes" :)?
I can probably remove some objects using actionscript, however if I have looping background image it is necessary to be bigger than 468px In my case 3x.

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?

My flash works fine on every platform and every better known browser. However, now I have a small issue on flash 9.0 player, and looks like the main problem is with calling external javascript using externalinterface.Every time I call it for div resizing which resize my flash stage, flash "jumps" or "flickers".I`m not sure what could cause this, but it surely happens only when I use externalinterface and call outside JS F-N.

With the Flash Player that comes with CS3 and on my PC XP Pro laptop.I want the player controls to appear at the _bottom_ of the video not on top of the video and not under (behind) the video.
- my video is 640 x 480
- so I modified the "properties" tab at the bottom of the screen to 640x480... (it was 550x400)
- but that just makes everything larger when I click File > Publish
- and then look at the video in Internet Explorer... the Player Controls are still _On Top_ of the video.
I guess I need to learn how to
- Make the stage bigger
- Position the Player controls below the actual video

Ive had a look on the forum for answers how ever they all seem far to complex and seem to have so many more functions. I just want some basic code that loads the swf's and resizes them to fit the player.

I am not simply trying to contain things and have the container resize without the contents resizing. I would just use a simple MovieClip for that.. My main focus is on the use of BitmapFill. I'm trying to make a repeating background image for a container; thus far I'm able to draw my BitmapFill sprite to the size I want. (Which is the stage's height) but when the stage is resized, I want to re-size my container but have my containers BitmapFill crop or add more as the window is resized bigger or smaller. Allow me to illustrate what I mean:
I've got a simple rectangle sprite that fills with a bitmap from the library and a simple resize handler function that detects when the window has been resized.what I would like to do is have my rectangle resize to the height of the stage.stageHeight maintaining its bitmap fill, but not resizing the bitmap fill or any children within the sprite.
From what I've read, this is a little tricky because the sprite resizes in relation to what it contains.. or.. something like that.. I really don't know any more.. I saw one example where a person extended the sprite class but I don't know why or how..
in my library there is an image called 'pattern' and my code looks like this:
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, resizeHandler, false, 0, true);

I'm loading a few pngs/jpgs externally so they can be swapped out occasionally, and the issue I'm running into is when they are shrunk they become fairly choppy. Is there a way to have flash re-render them, or do something to smooth the resizing as opposed to going in and resizing every file manually myself?

I've got a little problem with BitmapFill, I'm trying to use a sprite as a container for various things and i would like it to have a filled pattern background. my problem is that i want it to resize the sprite to the height of the window but not have the background fill resize, and add more / crop as the window size is changed. to illustrate what i mean, please view the diagram attached to this post .

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?

The problem is this: I have an swf embedded in an html. I must call a js function in the page from the swf via ExternalInteface. Ok. But it must work locally, for any user, without doing nothing. That's because this thing must be distributed in cdroms.
