ActionScript 3.0 :: Loader URL Works In .swf But Not In .html?
Mar 3, 2009
I'm using a Loader to load an external image. And when I'm in flash and test the movie it works perfectly, but as soon as I publish it (creating a .html in the same folder, not uploading it online) it says that there's something wrong with the URL - still it works when I test the movie in flash! This is very irritating, because I have no idea what's causing this. What's even more strange is that I have this class inside my movie, that uses the exact same loader method - only it's used inside a class - and it WORKS published.
Here's the code:
Code:
imageLoader = new Loader();
antalBildObjekt += 1;
imageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR,

I made a very simple loader, it's only a textbox with a percent loaded displayed.
It works perfectly when I use Test Movie in the Flash IDE but when I upload the .swf to my webserver, I get a blank grey box until the entire game is loaded, then it starts the game.
Is there any common mistakes one could make that would lead to this behaviour?
-- Detailed information -- Flash 8 game has 2 scenes. Loader, and MainGame Loader scene has the following code in frame 1:
Code:
stop();
onEnterFrame = function()
{
[Code].....
frame 2 has all my dynamically loaded movieclips placed on the stage (since I can't use 'export to frame 1' or that breaks the loader) frame 3 has a bunch of mp3's the game uses (same reason)
MainGame Scene has one frame that has actionscript code that does everything by code alone, loading movieclips and sounds dynamically.
It's that simple, and the loading works perfectly with various bandwidth settings using Test Movie, but once loaded from a website, the loader fails to appear at all, instead you are greeted to a grey box until the game is fully downloaded.

Sorry, I'm a newbie with what I'm sure is a deafeningly stupid problem. I'm self-taught, as well, so... there you go. I'm working with buttons that trigger images into a loader. When I test it on my computer it works fine. When I upload the SWF to my site with the code, the buttons appear but they don't load the images. I assumed this was because the images have to load from somewhere, so I uploaded the images to the same folder, but I it still won't work. Now I'm assuming it's an action script issue, but I don't know how to resolve it. My current action script is: on (rollover) {loader.contentPath = "image.jpg";}

I have a music player and because of my fast connection I cannot test if the pre-loader and or bar works.Also no matter what I do I can't get the second track to play. It has the same set of actions pretty much as the first.

I have created a pre-loader that creates a movie clip holder then loads an external swf into the created movie clip holder. The pre-loader downloads the external swf but then the downloaded swf re-loads on entry into it's first frame.

i am trying to load the html code of a page in to flash. It is working and running fine when i compile in flash but when i run it of my web server it wont load. the code that loads it is:textLoader.load(textReq);textLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, textLoadComplete);So once it has loaded the url in to textLoader it calls the function textLoadComplete. Like i say it works fine in flash but not on the server. I was wondering if it might be a security problem? i have used this at the start of the class:

I have created a moviecliploader that loads an external SWF and has player controls. I have a slider that moves with the movie, which works perfectly with cc_1.swf, but will not move with p_2.swf. The code below shows how the movie is loaded and how I update the x coordinate of the slider. Also, the attached zip file contains the fla and both swf movies.
Code:
//Working: cc_1.swf
//Not Working: p_2.swf
//Load Movie
var myMCL = new MovieClipLoader();
myMCL.loadClip("cc_1.swf", _root.container);

For a large project I have the following setup:
a content editor made with Flex SDK 3.5
a content viewer made with Flex SDK 4.1
Both need to work with dynamically loaded fonts as the user can use the fonts he wants.
So we used this approach:
convert the font files with Flash Professional to SWF-files (Creating a Font SWF)
editor: load the fonts with Loader (Loading a SWF font) the fonts can then be perfectly used within the application to generate htmlText viewer: the same approach to load the fonts + register them with Font.registerFont (Flex 4 Embed font from swf)
Now the problems: although the loaded fonts are listed when you trace Font.enumerateFonts(false), they are not used in the textarea. There the text is shown with the default font.
Maybe the problem is the fonts are loaded as embedAsCFF for the Text Layout Framework, and that way are not usable in an mx.controls.TextArea? But as I can not change that to a spark TextArea for multiple reasons, I need a solution to use the loaded fonts in that mx.controls.TextArea.

Intro:I started a flash-based website a few years ago. Back in 2006 I was able to get a xml scrolling thumbnail, image loader to work without a glitch.For numerous reasons I had to put the project on hold until now. [one was that my 30 day trial of flash expired and only recently was I able to purchase the Adobe Web Suite CS4 as well as a new computer which could run the apps.]
Last Friday saw a bump in the road in the development of my site as two, rather straightforward task, turned into something short of a nightmare as I have been unable to get past these two, seemingly, relatively simple task.I have posted in 4 other flash forums the issues, in detail, that I am facing - and have quite a bit of interest/views in the topic as the numbers suggest - yet no response/answer as of yet. [Which confirms other messages I have seen which seem to state that working with buttons has become increasingly difficult with the newer version of flash - something Im a bit surprised with actually from Adobe. - I would have thought there would be a palette where you could set parameters...]
Screenshot of Site/Timeline: Before getting into the two questions I have, I would like to post an image of the site as it looks whenever an swf file is saved out, as well as a piece of the timeline in the back for reference.As of now when the swf file is saved out you get exactly what you see above:
a: A scrolling thumbnail
b: ...which loads a large image when clicked on it - PEFECT...
BUT...1a: I need for the buttons to load in this action, not for it to just load on its own.[i.e., the silk_paintings gallery is what is open, so I need the "silk_paintings" button to call up this action]
note: Initially I had attacked this problem by taking out the actions layer you see above and applying it directly to the individual buttons with some crude MouseEvent Listener/Handerls... that did not work - at all.Im sure it may be "easier" to make an array out of it, but with my coding level it may be "easier" to apply it to the buttons.
1b: How I currently see it, I would take the xml-list and duplicate it for the number of galleries I have.[I would then re-name the xml-list to reflect the name of the galleries they are to represent, i.e. "silk_paintings"][also, I would have to rename the folders to "thumbnails1,2,3, etc., & "images 1,2,3, etc"
From there I would duplicate the actions and paste it into the buttons, changing the xml-list name to that of "silk_paintings", etc., as well as write in the MouseEvent listener Handler to make it work. [ah, ha, but what is that magic phrase, I have tried to implement various code from other tutorials, and all in vein.]
At this point I would be tickled pink just to get this to basic function to work.However, once the buttons are working and calling up the xml, etc., then I need the buttons to stay on the semi-transparent blue color it is whenever in the 'hit' state. [note: NOT pictured above.]With the way the buttons are currently set up, and with wanting to use scripting to get them to interact with the thumbnail gallery, it will have to be some miraculous code to tell that button what color to stay as whenever its clicked, and of course it going back to white when another button is clicked.
Conclusion:Since this is an Adobe Forum I would like to make a few additional statements in hopes that the developers, etc. may take heed.Adobes products are not cheap, and when I went to purchase the websuite I went in as a designer needing a program as not to need to program.I understand the flexibility that coding gives, but something as simple as linking buttons should not be in the realms of rocket science.

I have an image gallery with a thumbnail class which needs information about the content being loaded to be able to resize it appropiatly. Using.content.height and .content.width I can acces this information, however the swf (online) stops working when this code is encountered. No errors are thrown.piece of code from where it stops working

I have created a program that pulls large amounts of data from an XML file. The program works absolutely perfect if I test it in Flash or open it in IE. The problem I have run into is that when I put the program into a webpage using the following code (neither one works), it no longer connects to the XML file. Am I missing something in the code?
PHP Code:
<object width="880" height="800">

I made this XML slideshow which I uploaded to my webserver. It works like a charm when I call the .swf file, but when I call the .html, it fails to load the photos and descriptions. It's almost as if it can't 'reach' the XML-file. Locally, both the .swf and the .html file work fine. I'm using a variable in the url (like [URL] to pass data to the XML, but I don't see why that wouldn't work on the html file...

I have a Flash widget that is reading from at XML and loading images into a viewer movie_clip, setting the current client from a FlashVar that corresponds to an XML item.The widget works perfectly when I use the code in an HTML file. (I'm using SWFObject to handle the Flash object.)But when the exact same code is in PHP (and this is happening both on my client's server and through MAMP on my localhost), many of the loaders are returning NULL objects.
Code:

I'm publishing to Flash 8 Player and even though I can load one movie into another within Flash, when I publish the HTML all I can see is the container SWF - the loaded SWF is invisible. I've tried this with more than one loader movie and the result is the same. Here's my HTML for Flash:

I've got my swf which plays fine when opened in a browser - it's a container called 'country' that's coded to load the different clips (clip1.swf, clip2.swf, etc.) - but when placing it into an HTML page it won't load the clips and I'm thinking it's because of some actionscript error.
[URL]
Scripts are all loaded on the server in the /Scripts/ folder Below is the ActionScript from the country.swf container that loads the clips. what I'm doing wrong to get it to load on the HTML page?
function _playClip(fileName)
{
var clipName = fileName.substring(fileName.lastIndexOf("/") + 1, fileName.indexOf(".")) + "_mc";

I have a scrollbar and it works as a swf locally. It works in the html file too UNTIL I add too much text. Then the dragger "sticks" so it sort of works, but works really poorly. I'm not sure why adding too much text would cause the scroller / dragger to have problems, but it is.

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.

I have tried numerous attempts at converting flash files to HTML5 with Swiffy -- and they all work great in a browser running locally, but when I put the HTML file that is exported on a server (I tried two separate ones, just in-case it was some server configuration) they do not run, it gives a blank white screen.
I tried saving the file down to Flash 5 export, and changed settings and they work locally but not when placed on a server. I tried converting several flash files all with different animations, and I get the same results -- it works locally but not on a server.

I was originally writing my code in flash AS3 then I found out AS3 do not support the HTMLLoader class... so I publish my code in Adobe AIR. And my code run perfectly fine when I ctrl+Enter in CS4... but when I run the exported .swf file... it just fail when I click on the buttons that associated with HTMLLoader class. Why it is not working when I play the .swf but it works when I ctrl+enter it in cs4?
Here's the error:
