Just wondering if its possible to reload a swf into itself without hitting the browser refresh? Essentially, by clicking a button, I want to start the swf over, so all the variables are reset etc, without having to do this within the browser.
View 9 Repliesi'm working on a project that uses php and xml to link my database information with flash. I've successfully allowed flash to read the xml contents. I need to randomise the data i retrieved from the database, so my xml content will change everytime i refresh the browser. However, i realised that the flash content didn't change like the xml content. The script to read the xml is written on the 1st frame of my 1st scene. Is there a way to read the xml again everytime i refresh the browser or re-enter the scene?
View 2 RepliesI'm pretty new to flash and was hoping someone could offer some guidance with shared objects.hen the user refreshes the page by either refreshing or moving to another page the movie replays which is not the desired action.

View 6 RepliesAt my site [URL] I have PHP/MySQL talking to flash, when the holder movie opens it loads my home.swf into the content movie clip... It works fine once but if you click the home button (which runs the same function) or refresh the page it blanks out the text field and won't reload the content.
Code:
stop();
goHome();
function goHome() {
_root.background_mc.gotoAndStop(1);
_root.holder_mc.loadMovie("home.swf");

I've been making a game and want it so you can play again - when I try and send it back to frame 1 (it's preloader) it doesn't really work. I was wondering if there was a way of basically refreshing or reloading the whole swf file?
View 3 RepliesI want an mp3 player stretched at the bottom of the screen that won't refresh on page reload. I just want to embed a basic mp3 player in some flash, or use jquery, or ajax? Not really sure. I'm most familiar with jquery and would prefer that route. I just not sure how you could have a div that stretches through every page, but only being defined in one page.
View 1 RepliesI have a photo gallery that runs in a container, which is added to the stage like so:
import com.xmlphotoalbum.*;
var gallery:XmlPhotoAlbum = new XmlPhotoAlbum();
gallery_container.addChild(gallery);
I want to have it set up so when you click on a "gallery" button, it reloads/refreshes the gallery to its initial state, because the "internal" navigation of the gallery isn't very intuitive...and so the only thing I can think of is essentially to remove the gallery and re-add it, whenever "gallery" button is clicked, which resets the gallery to its initial thumbnail view. I've tried fumbling around with removeChild, addChild, simple if statements, etc.
Creating a flash project where I need to hit TAB in order for the playhead to go forward a frame. Then I need the user to hit a letter (for example hit 'a') to move forward again. Hitting the above keys is working,
As soon as the user hits TAB, flash seems to lose focus to the browser, and the user has to click on the swf on the screen before they can proceed.
I have a blank container mc into which I am loading JPGs after you click on a button. There are 10 buttons in the movie, each associated with a different JPG.This container_mc is part of a function called on the main Timeline.The Flash movie is 1 frame on the main Timeline. This code works correctly on the first JPG when I click on a button for the first time), but then when you click on a different button I believe it just uses the dimensions and coordinates of the first JPG. How can I reset or refresh (unload, reload) this function so it works correctly every time I load a new JPG?
//after full size image loads into detailthumb_mc,
//resize image so that neither width nor height is > 150, tben recenter
onClipEvent(load) {
var maxWidth = 150;

Our testing department found that my flash menu sometimes doesnt work after going back to a page by clicking Back button in browser (Firefox).
It happens rarely and randomly, yet still it happens.
i cant see any pattern in its behavior and any reason in it.
[URL]
i've tested this in every way i could think of,
it gets ROLL_OVER event, but not CLICK event.
ive also tested it with hasEventListener and it always has. its just not triggering function.
BUT clicking anywhere on page outside flash makes it work again.
Question: whose fault is this? Flash? Drupal? Firefox? God?
UPDATE: it looks like its caused by <param name="wmode" value="transparent"/>.
Firefox seem to have problem with that.

After searching the internet I found myself back here for the right answer. I've updated an swf for a client andin IE it won't reload without clearing the cache files. I know this is a common problem, but I couldn't quit figure out the best way to go about fixing it. I'd like to just add some actionscript to the swf if possible.
View 1 RepliesI have a flash in my page, In my flash there is a movieclip that has a click event..the time you click it, it will navigate you to the other page..
My question is.. Is there any function or anything that can reload the page, without reloading flash?
how could I get a Flash File to call a Javascript Function / Send a Variable back to a browser which Javascript could read?Basically working on something where as, currently at any moment during the web page is open Flash receives a variable.. Needs to process that, then call a Javascript Function in the page or if this can't be done, sends a variable back to the page which javascript will listen for every 500ms or something like this...
View 7 RepliesI'm a newbie at programming and had performed serveral search on the net without much useful results. For all you programmer guru out there, please lend me a hand if you can.I am using flash version 5.0. I have 7 flash movie files within one working flash file and only 4 movie files gets display on an HTML page at a time. I need a script that will randomize the appearance of the movie files each time the browser gets refresh. But the script should only randomize 2 of the 4 movie files.
So for example, say I have movie files named 1 to 7. On browser load, I have movie file, 1,2,3 and 4 displayed. Now when a user refresh browser, I want movie file, 1 and 4 to be replaced by either movie file 5,6, or 7 (ie. random diplay of file).This might sounds confusing or I might not be explaining it well, but if you go to www.standpipe.com you will see what I mean. Look at the Case studies section, there are 4 movie files being displayed.
I have been trying to figure out the best way to load content into a container on an .php page which has three different .swfs already loaded - one is an mp3 player which I do not want to stop playing (this will obviously happen on a page refresh). The objective is to keep a flash menu for navigation given it's nice animation capabilities, but load page content into a container underneath. There are JavaScript files out there that work in conjunction with php (ajax) to accomplish this, but once I throw flash into the mix everything goes sideways. I know you can include js with the ExternalInterface.call function, but this only solves the js portion not the php bit.
View 1 RepliesIs there a way to refresh the users browser using actionscript 2? I am showing some sensitive material that requires an NDA from the viewer. the material is in the form of .flv movies that are embedded in my flash site. After we allow people to watch the movies I go to our servers and delete the .flv files. however some web browsers keep this in their cache, like IE. So basically I want o know if there is a script I can use that will refresh the viewers browser after we view it and after I delete the .flv files causing the .flv files to no longer be in their cache.

View 3 RepliesI am designing a website with a Flash banner animation on homepage. I would like the animation to play only once per session. When the user refreshes the browser (or when navigates through other pages and comes back to homepage), the swf file should be replaced with a swf/jpg that's static.I do not want to try shared objects for other compatibility issues.
