I am building a Mac and Windows standalone file using flash, I need the flash file to check if the user is connected to the internet and if not they are shown a message which is on frame 2 if they are connected to the internet they are sent to frame 3.
View 1 RepliesAt the end of the movie I would like to check if the user is still connected to the Internet (they maybe on an unstable dial-up connection and lost connection). Is there anyway to do that? I mean, is there a way to check if a user is connected to the Internet using ActionScript?
View 4 RepliesI have been searching for a simple way to detect if a user is connected to the internet. I have been told to download xmls and read from html is there anyway one proven way which I can use in my projector for both mac and pc?

I am working on a secure network in which the computers have and will never touch the internet (yes, its sad). I am putting together a series of documents in Flash while using AS2. With the system we are using they have to be embedded into a HTML page so the old fscommand is out. Also without being connected to the internet or opening these documents w/ javascript good ol' getURL("javascript:window.close()") will not work either.

View 2 RepliesI need a fairly foolproof way to check from a child swf whether it is loaded into a container swf through a loader object or if it is just loaded through html. I would like to do this without requiring a flashvar or any kind of function call from the parent swf that may be there. Any quick and simple solutions? I looked for something with loaderinfo but came up empty.
View 4 RepliesI'm building a chat using Flex. The problem is how to do that new user get the list off all users online and added to the lists of all users. I try to put this information in DataGrid through dataProvider "callerns"[code]...Exchange user names and peer IDs between all connected users
View 1 RepliesThe following is my codes. This is still work in progress; so, you will see some functions with empty contents. Plus, this is my first Flex application; please bear with me. This is a quiz application that gets the questions and answers to each questions from a ColdFusion web service. There are three types of questions, True or False, Multiple Choice with single selection, and Multiple Choice with multiple selections. So, based upon the question type, the application would dynamically generate the appropriate amount of radio buttons or check boxes for the users to select. I got these working. The problem that I am having is, I am not sure how to check what the users have actually selected. In some other forums and posts on other web site, it said that I can use event.currentTarget.selectedValue to get the user selection. But when I actually do it, I got a run-time error saying, "Property selectedValue not found on mx.controls.FormItem and there is no default value." My question is, what do I need to do to capture the user selections?

I am creating a local app that is going to be a swf file. Is there anyway to check if the user has internet while they are using my app. I tried this, it works great if testing the movie from flash, however, It does not work when running the swf file independently. I'm guessing this is because it is strictly intended for air app.[code]...

View 2 RepliesI want to check if a user is logged using sendandload from flash to php. This is code I'm using
Code:

View 1 RepliesI need to take a user from a html link to a specific anchor point in the Flash website... that's easy enough. But the problem then is that the site is blank until it has loaded the relevant section. There's a preloader at the start of the whole site, but if a person jumps right in, it appears that nothing's happening for a while -which doesn't look very good- then the page appears. Is there a way to take the user to the first frame so that the preloader does it's bit, and then use the flash vars command to check the link they had come from, and jump then to the relevant section?

View 3 RepliesIt is the first time I work with this kind of application. Very little experience I have. And so do the stakeholders. They want something like an (flex AIR)application that is able: save data locally if the application is close synchronize data with the server side if needed Now, it is time for me to "do something" to this requirement before it get fixed. I have so many questions, but here are some less silly one:
The requirement is about "Rarely" connected, not "Occasionally" connected, right?
If I can't change the requirement, what should I do, "hibernate" the AIR application like Windows OS or save only the data to local DB? Their possibility ?
