ActionScript 3.0 :: Link To JS Prompt Using NavigateToURL Or Similar?
Aug 22, 2009
I'm trying to create a link that when clicked upon brings up a JavaScript prompt in the browser requesting a password. I'm trying to figure out how to convert it using AS3 but no luck so far. Here's the code in HTML form I'm trying to convert.
--
<SCRIPT language="JavaScript"><!--
function GateKeeper() {
var password = prompt("Password required:", "");
[code]....
with the JS still embedded in the page's HTML. How do I make the actual call in AS3?

I'm at my absolute wit's end. I'm an advanced Photoshop and After Effects user with quite a bit of knowledge using HTML and CSS. Today is my first day of Flash.
One would think that redirecting to a different page at a certain frame would be simple. I've been sitting here for 5 hours sifting through tutorials and forums and still have yet to arrive at the answer.
Here's what I have:
I clicked on the last keyframe and in the actions panel entered:
flash.net.navigateToURL(URLRequest("http://www.mywebsite.com/index.html", "_self"));
I have tried many (many) other iterations. how it can be done using step by step instructions. Most importantly I need a complete example of the actual code to be used.
Why is it so very very difficult to do this? I love how scripts function in After Effects. I love other Adobe software. Why is Flash so cumbersome?

We send SWFs out to other networks, and it seems that one of these networks has used our SWF, but they have prevented navigateToURL() from running. So no links work in the game (to give us traffic). How has this happened? Is there anything as a Flash Developer i can do to ensure a link works as i have never see navigateToURL intercepted before.

I'm trying to get the link to open in the same window instead of a new window, it's currently set to _blank. I tried _top, _self, _parent. When it's set to anything other than _blank the link doesn't work.

I'm making a Flash game which will be up on Facebook, I'm using Python/Django on the backend but to talk to Facebook. I use the Facebook Flash API. The problem is when I ask for extended permission from the user, using FBML. I get a link which I have to click and get the permission. How can I make sure a popup appears instead of the link. I'm using the following code.<fb:prompt-permission perms="publish_stream">permission</fb:prompt-permission>

A flash file loads a swf that has flash video using a loader request, which once loaded, wont unload and slows things unbearbley. I understand that once unloaded the flv will keep playing until Flash disposes of it.

I have 3 navigation menu, and i want the hover or mouse over effect to start at the first menu without using the mouse(it would prompt on i.e. on My Profile button, so i dont have to point my mouse arrow to start navigating the menu), because im just planning on using the up and down, left and right arrow keys on my remote control(on keyboard terms... just plain "arrow keys"). My ATI Remote wonder is working fine, i was able to use it browsing on IE and some other things, using most of the keys without any problem, its just that those updown leftright arrow keys on my remote control is not responding on my movie.

I have an .fla with multiple movieclips. For most of these, as one finishes, it calls the next with code like _parent.nextmovieclip_mc.play(); on that next movieclip (the one to be played), the first frame is blank with actionscript stop(); so that it won't begin at the start of the movie. nearly every movieclip plays just once and this has worked fine. I have run into a snag because I want *one* of these to loop 20 times, and I'm trying to do a loop, but either it plays once and stops or never plays. this clip should not begin at the outset of the movie, and so like the others above, it has a blank keyframe with a stop(); for frame 1

I'm trying to get into flash game developing (without a programming background) and for my first project, I thought creating a simple game like Text 4 Dead (or Don't **** your pants) to be a good bet.Unfortunately, I don't know how to start it. Anyone has any idea how the developers of the mentioned games did it? Did they just created a bunch of frames on the timeline and every time someone writes the right words on the prompt it takes them to the next frame?And how do you create a prompt itself to accept the commands and guide you around the game?

I got Facebook to work with Flash as I wanted it to using the Facebook-Actionscript-Api. Works great and I got get Graph api working so that I'm able to post stuff to ppl's walls using the Facebook.api("/me/feed") post stuff without asking the user permission, as it's already got that permission, and it's great for many occasions. But not all.

I know only basic html and no javascript. I just found this embed code somewhere and It works good except It won't prompt the user to update if user has lower version of flash!The second piece of code is some code i use for regular embedding. This version updates user's flash content if needed.I have tried to incorporate those two to make the first version have the update function but I'm sitting for hours at my comp and can't figure it out since my html and java knowledge is very poor.[code]

I've read an XML file with various fields. I want to display one XML field in one TLFTextField and another XML field in another TLFTextField when a button is clicked. One text field has the product name the other has the product description.
This is the code but I can't seem to display anything, much less even trace any of the text string variables
ActionScript Code:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import fl.text.TLFTextField;
import flashx.textLayout.accessibility.TextAccImpl;
[Code]....
I'm also getting a prompt when I compile that says:
"Your content will not stream. Runtime Shared Library (RSL) preloading will require all of your content to download before the first frame will play.
To prevent this you can change the Runtime Shared Library Library Settings in the Advanced ActionScript 3.0 Settings dialog which can be raised from the Publish Settings dialog.
The Runtime Shared Libraries being preloaded are:
textLayout_1.0.0.595.swz for TLF Text"

I have a dropdownlist of "Select an employee" which is optional. I need it to have "No one" at the top so that user can change back to NoOne if he' ve already chosen "John Someone".
My question is how to keep the prompt item, or add a dummy item at -1 without changing the dataprovider (I really hate adding "No one" to the original employeeList dataprovider)

Here is my code:
<mx:ComboBox prompt="" editable="true" dataProvider="{tableSelector.list}"/>
When this code executes, flex just sets the selectedIndex to 0 and displays the first item in the dataProvider instead of leaving the text and prompt as the empty string "". How do I get around this? I need the text property to be "" unless the user selects another item in the combobox.
