ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Scrollbar Lags When Embedded Into Html?
Sep 1, 2009
I made a smooth scrolling scrollbar in Flash - it works fine except when I upload it to my server/domain the scrollbar lags a bit and is not really smooth. The swf runs very smooth on my desktop but when embedded into html and uploaded, the movie clip that the scrollbar is scrolling doesn't animate smoothly, it jumps. Is there any way to make it go faster?
I made a flash mp3 player and it works fine in any other test pages. but when i embed it onto my site it just shows blank. what do i do? my site is [URL] and the flash player i tested here [URL] and it plays. What im i doing wrong? i tryed everything. right now i just got it in a iframe but i dont want that iframe.
I would like to place a scrollbar in the HTML page that is in the iFrame. I also would like to remove or hide the original scrollbar from the iFrame (without using the scrolling="no" since this stops scrolling all together). Is any of this possible? Am I able to control HTML scroll with a Flash scrollbar? Will I need to use javascript?
I understand my way around both actionscript, html, CSS, and some javascript....if any of this is a possiblitiy could you at least point me in the right direction? Would this be better if I built .PNGs and created Divs to build the scroll bar on the HTML page?
The problem is that when the site is being watched on, say a 10 inch notebook where the height of the screen is only 600px, the site is simply too big and it won't show all the content on the site.I was hoping there was a way to, either via actionscript or javascript(which I know next to nothing about), would be a way to tell the browser to use a normal HTML scrollbar when the stage size becomes too small ...If I haven't explained my question good enough or I need to post my actionscript code, I can do so when I get home.
I have made a html file in which a swf is embedded with swf object. this swf contain dynamically loaded audio files. It works fine in offline but when it is uploaded it does not show the movie(swf is not playing) I see only empty space. i thought that it may take time to load, but even after waiting for long time the swf did not play and it shows blank white space.
Right now it is making the space behind the .swf file clickable for the link, but the Flash element is not clickable.
If the right thing to do is to edit the .swf file somehow, I don't consider myself a Flash developer, but are there any resources on where to get started or how to do something this basic with an existing .swf file?
How should I change the following code if I want to put my flash object into a directory named "flash/", I tried changing the value to "flash/photo.swf" but it didn't work.
When i embed a flash video in HTML it works in IE and in Firefox but not in chrome. I've looked it up and I've found that chrome adds two attributes to the embed tag, width and height. i have already set the width and height attribute in the embed tag in pixels but from some reason chrome changes it to percentage. when i inspect the element and write pixels instead of percentage the flash is visible again.
I wanted to know how to connect my flash embedded in html to servlets or through javascript and get values from and send to servlets or through javascript.
I am using an embedded flash movie in my web page. I would like to show some alerts on the page when the movie has played for x seconds, pause the movie while the user views and dismisses the alert and start playing the movie again after that (or the user can press the play button, not important). The important parts being - the app being able to find out if x secs worth of movie has played, pausing the movie then and showing an alert. Is this possible using a php/javascript code within the web page? Or will I have to do this within the flash movie itself?
So I have a flash site and I am curious why it is not working in Chrome. The site works great for Safari, Firefox, and IE. Just won't work in Chrome. Well below is the code
I am a motion media designer trying to incorporate some of my work for a client into a website for her Christmas gift. I am trying to resize a .swf to match the browser size, as the fixed size is really messing with my otherwise-resizing layout. Every time I set the width/height of the .swf to "100%" or "auto", the movie gets cut off at the top and bottom under the div containers. When I change the size of the container to 100%, I get a long, thin movie. I've copied my code below, Feel free to criticize anything else about my code, too--I'm a CSS virgin.

I can view it in my browser by going directly to the file however when it is embedded the photos will not load. The images it loads has to be in the same directory as the .swf file and as i stated it clearly works when going directly to the file but not once it has been embedded.
i have a flash inside html. now what i want is when i open the html in browser it goes fullscreen without clicking any 'full screen/normal screen' button.
I'm considering taking on a new project for myself - nothing particularly major - but I've a few questions that I'm certain anyone with some serious experience with Flash might be able to answer for me or perhaps (hopefully) guide me in the right direction for alternatives.
So I have an idea for a horizontal menu that I want to design using Flash (I've only experience with AS3 - odd as that is? - so that'll be how it'll be designed). As I'm coming to understand it's difficult/impossible to have the embedded flash interact with other portions of the HTML, so for every time that a menu item is clicked, is the only way to go about moving to that page just having the entire page effected - ie each page (home, port, etc) has to also include the embedded flash as well, or can I just have it affect some subwindow or section of the page, instead?
would this be considered a bug in my code (AS3 and Tweener) or a problem with the SWF and its interaction with HTML?When I test the SWF in Flash, there's no breaking it.I can't break it at all works exactly like it's suppose to.When I embed it in Flash, it breaks in an odd way.I have two buttons, left and right. When the buttons are clicked, images on stage move in the direction they're clicked.When embedded, if I click a button really fast, the images start tripping over each other. Strange thing is, it's only to the left button and not the right, but the code is exactly the same for the right & left movement. If I click the buttons slowly everything works as expected.All of this while again everything works great in Flash itself. No errors.So, at the very least I'm trying to find out if this would be considered a but with my code or a problem with the browsers and the Flash player.
on the <div> that wraps the <iframe>, the SWF object sometimes remains in plain sight, while the <div>and <iframe> go out of view as expected.

This should work in the latest versions of Safari, Chrome and Firefox on a Mac and in the latest versions of Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer on a Windows 7 machine, and it should fail (no errors but the hiding behavior doesn't occur) in Safari on a Windows 7 machine.
It might be pertinent to note that one thing I've noticed about the SWF objects that have passed and failed are that the ones that have failed all revolve around video content whereas the ones that have passed don't. Granted I haven't tested more than a half-dozen objects, but that's quite a coincidence. :)
I've embedded a flash object in a form, and anchored it to the 4 borders. And when I resize the window, the flash application resizes too... but it tries to keep its proportions, showing unaesthetic black bars instead of change its width/length proportion.
I need to load contents of an external html document through AJAX. The problem is the external page has some Flash application embedded. Now I need to show this html with the embedded flash in my own webpage.
I have inserted a flash menu into the html pages in my website. I am using the same swf file and ebedding a variable name in each page eg. "menu.swf?x=about". I then use a conditional statement in the actionscript to determine which page i am on eg
else if (x == "about") { mc_menu.about._alpha = 50;
I have waited FOREVER for a Universal Binary version of Flash to be finally released. Now that I've finally got it, its performance is less than stellar. I'm running it on a 2.16Ghz Intel Core Duo and 2GB RAM, and there is considerable lag when renaming layers, or when dragging the timeline across a simple shape-tween. Not only that, but when I export movies (Apple+Enter), the pop-up window that plays it is EXTREMELY slow, and it's slow regardless of what's going on, even if I'm only animating a circle moving from point A to point B.
What's going on here? I've tried disabling all but the system fonts, closing the help window, and made sure I have no extensions running. Nothing helps. The horizontal scrollbar in the timeline moves from side to side with great fluidity and ease, but dragging the timeline bar is awfully slow. Did Adobe miss something here? I didn't spend $1800 on this Design Suite to be stuck with a piece of software which runs FASTER on my 2.16Ghz AMD-powered PC (which I built over four ears ago). Macs used to be the top-of-the-line in terms of Photoshop + Flash performance when they were on the PowerPC platform. But this whole Intel switch has really taken a hit on Flash.
I used Dreamweaver to embed my flash file into an html file, using "Insert-->Media-->Flash".When I preview the file, everything works fine, but when I upload the file to the web, the external links to my blog and e-mail will not work. Before, I just had the flash file up, with no html, and it worked fine.Url...
Ok, heres whats going on - I have a CFML Tag that displays a number from my Database. I want to get flash to be able to read this number using embedded HTML. However, I can't find a tutorial in Google I may be searching for the wrong thing.
I got my HTML embedded in my flash file, finally!But now I want some parts of the text that is in the HTML file to link to a specific label in flash itself.What variable can I use for this? or even a Href link?
I currently made a flash animation. the background is the only one that is animated and scrolls to the right. But my problem is why it lags? Is there any way to not make it lag? here's a link of the swf file you can view: http:[url]......I tried it on a high spec pc and it does not lag when it is in normal screen(640x480) but when I view it in full screen it lags. There are no scripts or anything in this file just animation.
