View 2 RepliesI'm using LoadVars to load variable data into flash from a .txt file.Pretty simple - when uploaded onto a server, I can see the data loaded but no one else can, not even other accounts on my computer!Could this be a CHMOD permission problem? Could this a problem with my AS? A problem with directories? A problem with URLs?Anybody have a good method that simply loads vars from a .txt file and can also do it online?
View 2 RepliesExperience with Flash: very very little (very) Version: CS4 Operating system: XP Pro. I was given an FLV file to display on the web. I imported the file into flash and exported it as an html file.
The movie worked great online, but then I was asked to save a copy of the movie on a CD to send it to a client - I saved all the files in a folder. I tested it on my computer and I was able to view the movie, but when the client loaded the html page, all they saw was a bar (that has the volume & play buttons) and a green line that scrolls across it. Here's what it looks like
Some people can load the html file and view the movie and others cannot (on their desktop). On some computers I tried updating the flash player (I removed the existing one first), but it still did not work.
As much as I'd like to be, I am not a Flash developer - I just use it to the extent that I must (the nature of my job) Did I provide enough information for someone to be able to tell what the issue is and how to resolve it?
I need to load an external image into the clip from the desktop using:
var myimage:File = File.desktopDirectory.resolvePath
I have a mx:html component in a AIR Desktop Application that load an external webpage into it...this webpage has an iframe in it and the iframe load (obviously) another page...I can't figure out how to get the code of the iframe...If I try to get the webpage content I only retrive the start page like:
File webpage.html
<html>
....
<iframe src="http://host/framepage.html">content default</iframe>

It's like as the second page is not loaded, but it's actually be loaded and rendered in the browser window (i tried also using a button so I can delay the search for the iframe content.

View 2 RepliesI have a mc with the instance name of 'resume'. When clicked, I want a resume to download to the user's desktop. I'm currently doing this:
resume.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, downloadFunction);
function downloadFunction(event: MouseEvent) {
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("profile_images/resume.pdf");
navigateToURL(request);
}
I haven't put this on the server yet, so I'm just testing it locally, thus the url request not having an actual url address. Is this correct? I use this same code, roughly, for the loading of external links... and images etc. When I test it, the pdf doesn't pop up.
I am a psychology student and have the need to edit a flash game for use in a project. Having no programming experience, this is proving to be an issue! Basically I contacted the authors of a study for a copy of a driving game that records data to an external file (I think this is where shared objects come in?). Unfortunately, I cannot find the output file anywhere on my machine (I am running Windows 7 - have looked in the appropriate directories). After downloading a trial version of CS3, I have edited the screens I needed but have not been able to understand the code. I have located the code for the shared object and was wondering if anyone know how to make it save the SOL file to my desktop. Here is the code I think is appropriate:

I'm building a mobile AIR application that connects to my desktop AIR application. In the mobile application, I'm recording video with my Android device with flash.media.CameraUI. This works perfectly, but now I'd like to send this file to my desktop application so I can do stuff with it. I've got a server written in AS3 running on my desktop (the application itself) listening to AMF messages on a certain port. I can send data through sockets, I've already tested it with accelerometer data, so that's not the issue.
What would be the best way to send video to my desktop AIR app? I've tried multiple things already; serializing using registerClassAlias, ByteArrays.
I want to create an flash file in which when user clicks on download button, the files from USB(pen drive) will get copied to user's desktop.Is it possible to download/copy whole folder(with all files in it) to user'desktop? or i can only download/copy files?
View 14 RepliesI recently began working on a large game. The main swf that all the levels load from also acts as a runtime library. When the MovieClipLoader loads the next level, if that level imports any mc's from the main swf then it won't load. It works fine straight from the HDD though.
I could really use a hand. I've used up most of my brain power figuring out the source of the problem (there's a lot of stuff to sift through).
I mis-spoke before. The MCL will load level.swf, I see the progress bar and OnLoadInit executes which should mean that the first frame of the level was initialized, but nothing appears.

Has anyone been successful in using StageWebViewBridge to load and communicate with an online web page? [URL]. The documentation and examples offered are all configured around working with local files (which work successfully) and although the instruction to 'include the StageWebViewBridge.js' file within the loaded html page sounds very straight forward, sadly it doesn't seem to work.
For anyone wanting to replicate my test I have uploaded the files here: [URL]. I'm basically loading the 'ExampleCallBackFuncions.html' file from a web server. I've included the StageWebViewBridge.js file like so...
<script type="text/javascript" src="StageWebViewBridge.js"></script>
When I test the movie I get the correct setup output messages
_serializeObject =>___onDomReady
_serializeObject =>___getFilePaths
_serializeObject =>___onDeviceReady
_serializeObject =>fnCalledFromJS
And the html page appears in the viewport. But on pressing the button which should send a message to Actionscript I get the following error messages:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

at es.xperiments.media::StageWebViewBridge/onLocationChange()
[/Users/G5TowerIntel/Desktop/maptest/es/xperiments/media/StageWebViewBridge.as:236]
My goal is to send a message back to ActionScript from the html page.
im loading some RSS from twitter.. it works fine when i'm testing local, but when customer uploads it on 3rd part server, it doesent work. It's most likely a flash security issue. Is it possible to make a serverscript file that outputs the RSS to flash? Our server does have both ASP and PHP directories.. so any will do.

View 0 RepliesSetup: I have an html page with an embedded flash object. The object is an "index.swf" with an empty movie clip on it. External swf's load onto the index swf via the empty movie clip when buttons are pushed.
Problem: On my test server in dreamweaver, the swf's load fine. When I put them on my server and test it online only the index swf loads. not the initial swf or any of the other swf's.

I am making a flash site where one of my pages loads an external swf. In this external swf I have sub pages with links. My problem is when I visit a page from this external swf, and then go to a page from my main website (clicking my main time line buttons) and then go back to the page with the external swf i was previously on, the page would go to the last page i was on, instead of refreshing it back to the main frame of the external swf.
I made a small, simple example of what I am experiencing on the site I'm working on.

Firstly I aim to load random jpgs into a movieclip from a folder online. online image dir As jpgs will be constantly added to this by anyone, I will never know the file.jpg names to put into my AS. So i was advised I needed PHP to do this, (I know little about PHP) I got some space where PHP works! PHP enabled Right so at the moment I have a Movie Clip in flash with a piece of AS that says
[AS]onClipEvent (load) {
loadVariables("http://www.cppa.co.uk/t/test1.php", this, "GET");
filenames.split(":");[code]....
But when trying my php file through firefox its says (php file ."Parse error: parse error, unexpected '.' in c:websitesfreecrystalwww est1.php on line 5"
how to make this piece of PHP script send the flash the filenames of the directory, so flash can random insert on into a movie clip,
