View 4 RepliesI have a MC with the following:
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(url));
However, when I click it it opens a new browser window.Is it possible to load the target on the current browser window?
I am using the getURL function in response to a button event. I need it to open the URL (absolute) in a new browser window, but I need the new browser window to open on top of the current browser window. Right now it's opening behind the current browser window. Below is my code:
on (release){
getURL("absolute URL here", "_blank");
}
Is it possible to create a screenshot from the current page the user is on? (It's for an Intranet enviroment).
I know this is not possible with JavaScript alone, but is it possible with Flash or maybe an Java applet?
I have been searching around but I couldn't find anything.
I've embeded my swf file in .net application and after navigating to some pages in swf file and pressing f5 or refresh, its navigating to starting page of swf file and browsers path always shows the same path (main.aspx page) in which I am embedding the swf file. After navigating to some pages in swf file also it shows the sam path. So its refreshing the aspx page and giving the starting page. How can I control the browser to stay in current page of swf file.
View 9 Repliesin other words, suppose I want to send data, like text, programmatically from a Windows app (such as a browser plugin) to a Flash app running in the browser. Well, conceptually, an example of this might be a Flash instant messenger with a textbox and button "Send"; so let's say I want to be able to programmatically paste the text and press Send or otherwise activate it. That's NOT what I am trying to do here in reality (i.e., no,I am not trying to spam other people's chat rooms or anything)but just an illustration of a similar situation.I can include in it whatever widget or hack that may be necessary.The reason why this problem is arising for me is that AFAIK the SDK that is providing me the data I want cannot be directly accessed from Flash, so I need a way to pipe the data from a regular app into Flash. can I have the Flash app interact with other apps through localhost IP? Or are there draconian restrictions on which server Flash in browser can and cannot interact?
View 1 RepliesI have a standalone Flash projector running off CD. Currently, I use
getURL("http:url....);
to open the page on default browser. Only problem is the browser window is opening at the size it was last used. I like to see it opens full screen.
The title essentially is the question, how do I open the .swf without the browser's control bar junk? and maximize the window?
View 2 Replies I have a PHP mailer form on my site which needs to be published in action script2 to work, but I also have a script set up to open browser windows of a certain size & location which needs actionscript 1 to work? The PHP mailer form has a "Name" field, "Email" field & "Message" field, theses can all be reset with a button. The button clears off any text in the 3 boxes to wipe them clean. The script on the reset button is:
on(release) {
_root.myForm.formNameField.txt = ""
_root.myForm.formEmailField.txt = ""[code].....
This works fine with section script 2 but not with as1. Does anyone know of a script that resets the .text field on as1 Alternatively is there any way of opening browser windows from a flash movie with browser win controls, eg. centre win, no scrollbars.
Trying to detect a browser close event and send some data to the database when the user closes the browser window...but can't seem to get it to work.[code]
View 6 RepliesI have looked around for this and haven't found a way that clearly explains how to do this. More often than not the button will close the browser window in one but not another browser.
Is the a simple way of closing a browser window in all types of browser ( Or mainly Firefox, IE and safari on both Mac and PC ) with actionscript?
I created a photo album viewer which grabs an XML file from my web site, and then parses the XML to get the paths to all the photos to be displayed by the album viewer. The code makes use of the URLLoader class to fetch the XML. The problem, though, is that in google Chrome it works-- but in IE8, it doesn't work. For example, the XML code and the image fetching code work seemlessly on Chrome. But in IE8 and in IE6, it seems to not be able to fetch such information.
I've read somewhere that you need a crossdomain.xml file at the root directory of your server. But I'm not crossing any domains! It's all coming from my server where the swf is being hosted!

View 4 RepliesIs there a way to grab the current frame number?
View 3 RepliesI've got two different domains and both of them direct to the same website. This website has a menu on top made in Flash (the rest is HTML, so the page must be reloaded everytime I click on an option or I need new content).
But this Flash movie has to show a different animation depending on the URL.
What can I do to find out the current URL in ActionScript?
how can I get the current frame of a MovieClip.It's an animation that just loops over and over when its opened with ctrl+enter.On the stage its just one layer and one frame, but when it's double clicked, it has its own timeline with 20 frames.
Actionscript Code:
//what i had but it shows frame 1trace(myMovieClipInstance.currentFrame);
display the current frame when it changes. So something with a while loop. Like while the movie clip is playing, display the current frame.
how can you delete the "current" mc?

I have this code within the flash to load in the XML file. A list of buttons is generated from the XML list. How do I find out which is the current 'item' selected, and then how to select the next 'item' from the XML list

I'm trying to get the current unix timestamp in AS3 via:
var date:Date = new Date();
var unix:int = date.time;
trace(unix);
For some reason I get:
2775219874
But when I use time() in PHP around the same time, I get:
1321330282
I don't understand? I could of course request the timestamp from PHP via URLLoader, but I'd rather get it working properly without needing this if possible.
I need to get the value from the current page url, (the value is sent by javascript)?
View 4 RepliesI'm building an application that is simulair to a realtime world clock. I want to be able to show the current day of the year and the current second of the year. Based on those variables I will calculate realtime data basd on data that I will put into the application monthly. I have written a script, but it's not very accurate. I think the time part of the script is slipping for some reason. Plus I have to account for leap years.
