ActionScript 3.0 :: Preloader That Checks For New Version?
Jun 17, 2010
I've made an external preloader (loader.swf) that loads another file (test.swf) - it works fine. However, if I change the test.swf-file with a new version, I have to clear my browsers cache to "update" the new version.
CTRL+F5 only seem to check for a new version of the loader.swf - i cannot force update the file which the loader checks for.
So to the question, is there an easy way to have the preloader check for a new version of the test.swf?

I am trying to build a preloader that detects the user's Flash Player version, and then loads the matching content: if the user has Flash Player 11, Stage3D content should be loaded.
The problem I'm running into is that a preloader that is compiled for Flash Player 10 can't display Flash Player 11 content, even if it is running in Flash Player 11.
Is this true? Are there solutions other than detecting the player version in JavaScript?

Are there any plans to upgrade the SDK to version 8 or 9 or release a updated flash version for the Wii. It's ridiculous that Adobe has not done this already considering the sheer volume of people using the Wii web browser.

I'm working on a portfolio. Right now theres two buttons that both expand and close the box which contains my content. The only problem is once the box is expanded (viewing about me for example) and you clicked the contact me part, the box would just close and not re-open. So what I need to know how to do is to close the box and have it re-open with new content.This has to be done in actionscript because that was my challenge so please do not give me other solutions such as making more MovieClips,

I would like to have menuItems with checks that show what element of the menu has been selected. I know it is possible to have checks with XML. But is it possible to have variables in XML because the elements of my menu are variables. If there is a component on sale that has exactly the design of the flash component menuBar + menu and that is more easy to program,

finishing a function that checks 6 positions (indiciesOfInterestShape) in a dynamically updated array (productCode) for two types of values; the number 0 or any number between 1 to 8 .I need the result of this function to update the finalNumber variable to a number between 0-6.If a 0 is found at any of the 6 indicies it will mean the final number does not increase.If a number between 1-8 is found at any of the 6 indicies then the final number increases by 1. And seeing as there are only 6 indicies to check the maximum number will only ever be 6.This is what I have so far
// indicies that are dynamically updated 10 19
public static var productCode:Array =
[C,A,1,A,1,A,A,1,A,A,0,0,A,0,0,A,0,0,A,0,0,A]

I have a MovieClip that when the update(); function is called, it checks the cells (on a grid) around it to see if there is an object there. If so it updates it's image to reflect that.
How i'm doing it now is something like 40 if/else/else if statements..

I'm trying to get a custom flash gallery going by using the loadMovie command with Jpeg's. I must use this method as it's what is required by our project. I am trying to figure out some way to make an array to keep all of my image names and then detect which button is being pressed and have it call the corresponding number within the array.Currently I have some code that is working quite well but not fully
Code:
stop();
var thumbArray:Array = ["i1", "i2", "i3", "i4", "i5"];[code]........
I have two buttons currently instanced named i1 and i2.The trace is working and calling "i1" but for some reason even though i set i1 = "thejpeg.jpg" it isn't calling the jpeg.I can upload my file if necessary.Also i'm going to need to be able to unload the opened jpeg by clicking anywhere off of the jpeg's area, .i know how to unload a jpeg but I don't know how to detect when you click any surrounding area of it.

In flash, is it possible to have your application check that the environment it is running on is "recognized". If so, how do you go about doing it? I want to put my swf on my website and prevent people using it on their site.

I have a BUNCH of bumpers of four types bounceUp, bounceDown, bounceLeft, bounceRight. during a collision which you hit determines the bounce so they always do the same thing so here's my question.....can i just name every bounceUp instance the same thing and then just add that one instance name to the list the collision detector checks?
i just dont wanna go through and name a hundred each of bounceUp s and bounceDown s individually as the potential for screaming increases proportionally.......

if (param1 === null || param1.length === 0) ?

I just started working on a preloader screen that includes a preloader mask over a logo and a percentage dynamic text. I can get either or to work but not both at the same time. I notice that if I remove stop(); I can get the percentage to work but not the preloader image. With the stop(); embedded the image preloader works but the percentage doesn't.

I'm looking for a standalone app that will let someone know what version a FLA is.
Specifically if it's CS5 or CS4.
Basically we upload FLA's to another system in which they MUST be CS4.. if a CS5 version is uploaded then the system crashes.
Just want to have a "checker" app that people without access to Flash could use to double check it is CS4 before upload.
Found "Flaver" : [URL] But it's PC and also not been updated since 2007 so I dont think it supports CS4/5.
We are also all on Mac so a OSX version is needed.
