is it possible to get <tables> from a external HTML file to load in flash? I've searched google like crazy and everywhere I see they say it can't load the tables from the external HTML file..
Is there maybe a way to cheat in this? or make something that will look the same?
I need to create a 3-column 10-row (sometimes up to 12) table in Flash. I don't need any sorting or resizeable colums or anything like the DataGrid component offers. I'd be happy with 30 dynamic text fields, but that doesn't seem like the right way of doing it.I can make an XML document or an HTML page (although flash can't load HTML pages/tables if I understand correctly? Only basic html). I think XML would be easiest. This is for data that is reloaded every 15 seconds, so it needs to be somewhat efficient.Currently I am just loading htmltext using loadvars, but the problem is that I can't align the 3 columns.[code]
View 7 RepliesHow does one go about putting a table into a flash document, that is controlled by an html page on the server? I've searched everywhere but I've only found a few that charge for the service. I know there must be a simple way of accomplishing this.
View 1 RepliesI asked a question last night and got an answer almost instantly. LOVE stack overflow!I am working on the same site and the other day I was on a computer and the uploader script was not working (uploadify), I was frustrated and looked through the code and everything was fine, worked on all other computers, then I decided to check if flash was installed and it wasnt.
Is there any way to check if the user has flash, and if they dont somehow say that on the page? I know for Javascript there is a tag, but is there something I can use for Flash?
There are various ways to show flash(swf file) on html, for example, object or embed tags.I want to support IE6-9, FireFox3-, Chrome, Safari, and as many other browsers as possible.(especially IE6-9)But I also want to use simple tag as possible.What is the best way to write html tag to show flash(swf file)?
View 2 RepliesI am using jcupload whats nice is all i need to write is the below and the flash+js does the rest
<div id="jcupload_content"></div>
However this is the ONLY flash on my site. If the user doesnt have flash (think ipod) i'd like to fallback to an html implementation. How do i do it? I know logically ppl wont be uploading via ipods but if i were to play music i can use a flash audio player fallback to html5 audio in that case.
You can build apps in HTML using Adobe AIR which parses it using Webkit, can this be done in Flash?For example you have a string that contains <html><body><b>hello world</b></body></html> and then call a function that runs the WebKit parser over it and then outputs 'hello world' in bold to the stage?
View 2 Repliesi'm developing a web where i want to show a flash on the index page. The flash got 3Mb size. But while it is downloading, i just see a white space where it should be.
I have tried putting an image in the background, but i just see white until the flash is fully downloaded...
I would like to see the first image of the flash, or an static image while it is loading?
im just putting it in the direct way

i need to show HTML in Flash
View 1 RepliesI've created a full screen flash website. When I test the file in flash, its all good. Now I need to put it online to show the client, but whenever I try to do this...all I get is a black screen. Even if I use Flash's own Publish as HTML option, all I see is a black screen. the code on my main timeline is like this:
[AS]
import caurina.transitions.Tweener;
import caurina.transitions.properties.ColorShortcuts;
import caurina.transitions.properties.FilterShortcuts;
[code]....
nothing is wrong when I test the actual SWF from Flash, or even just open the SWF in windows...
I developed something in flex. It works great on FF and Safari. But on IE the "swf area" remains blank until mouse moves over it. I am embedding it like that:
<object height="100%" width="100%" id="myApp">
<param value="example.swf" name="movie"/>
<param value="high" name="quality"/>
[code]......
I'm using the following AS3 code to load an external swf (one with dimensions I don't like) into another swf. When I view the loader swf while embedded in a html page nothing is displayed even though the loader swf displays the nested swf without a problem in preview.
package
{
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
[Code]....
If I substitute the name "loaderSwf" with the nested swf name it plays fine. It seems as though the local html page does not like the fact that I'm playing a swf through another swf.
so apparently with the new update in IE8, it starts up with NO add-ons. Since I cannot program a code to turn on add-ons in a browser, I need to show a message when this occurs. Much like an image has alternative text in the event the image doesn't load...how can I add a message that states:
You are using Internet Explorer 8+ and need to turn on your add-ins like FLASH Player. This site is optimized for Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome.
Let's say I have a plain HTML website. More than 80% of my visitors are usually from search engines like Google, Yahoo, etc. What I want to do is to make my whole website in Flash.However, search engines can't read information from Flash or JavaScript. That means my web page would lose more than half of the visitors.So how do I show show HTML pages instead of Flash to the search engines?
Note: you could reach a specific page/category/etc in Flash by using PHP GET function, for example: you can surf trough all the web pages from the homepage and link to a specific web page by typing page?id=1234.
the thing i'm searching for my site is something that can show, and after 10 seconds, hide some html.Exactly is for a games site. I want to show ads during 10 seconds, and after this time, load the .SWF file of the game.During 10 seconds i want to show the window of the ad in the center of the field where later the game will be displayed. It's like a 700x500px window.One of the problems is that the ad window maybe 300x200px and i want to put it in the center. It's like i want to make a scene of 10 seconds with tha ad showing like the game is loading.I beg you to answer in a begginer level, i'm not expert in scripts, just know some html, that's why i'm a bit overwhelmed with the info i found in the net.
View 1 RepliesCan Flash hide/show a DIV-Layer on a html-page?
View 16 RepliesI have a movie clip that displays an embedded html with a bunch of divs that are expected to hide and show other divs when the users click them. i.e. imagine that you have a span with an instruction in javascript to show a div when you click it. I already made the html file, the external css and the external js. The movieclip (in actionscript 3.0) loads and displays the html content and also the css, but i haven't managed to figure out how am i supposed to link or use the javascript to do the trick. I've tried so far doing an exhausting research over the internet for the past few days and the only infromation i've got is that web developers use externalInterface to access javascript functions, but they use flash buttons to execute the js code, and it appears to me that i cannot use or embed flash btns in my site. I don't know, I'm kinda new to flash and this is the first time I work with actionscript 3.[code]or how do I achieve de hide/show thing with another method? I'll be wandering around the site in case you have any extra doubts about this subject.
View 2 RepliesI am having a nightmare using CSS to style HTML within a dynamic textfield in my flash doc. From what i now understand after much trial and error and reading online, CSS doesn't even work properly in flash even for the tags that it does understand (which are few and far between anyway). For some reason my layout is getting completely screwed up in certain scenarios (predominantly when there are images present too) when i hover over links (which are styled in an external CSS file). If i remove the external CSS styling (which only contains the following simple code):
a:link {text-decoration: none;}
a:active {text-decoration: none;}
a:visited {text-decoration: none;}[code]....
Then everything works fine (but no links are underlined as standard or on hover). Does anyone know of any way to style the links without using an external CSS file (all i want to do is have no underline as standard and then underline them on hover). As this is from user input into a text editor I cannot place these links manually on the page in flash as they could be anywhere, I need a way of parsing the HTML and then displaying it accordingly.
I can't figure out for the life of me why I can't get this to select all tables. If I select a specific table it works..
[Code]...
It seems like this should be working because in the documentation it says, "If a result expression is * then all columns of all tables are substituted for that one expression. " here is the docs. [URL]
I have a flash movie emmbedded in my web page. I what to be able to go to certain frames using html. Can this be done. If so how?
View 1 RepliesI don't have a clue on what I'm doing wrong. Sometimes, when I open this page my html page , the swf don't appear. It won't happen always, but is really frequent.Important: when it don't appear, I do can hear the sounds that the swf movie makes. In other words, I'm shure that the object is on the page, but it just won't be visualizable.The error occurs on Firefox and Chrome (I didn't see it happening with IE, but I won't doubt that it is possible)The problem isn't in the swf because I have already tested with another file that have no code at all and the same problem occurs.Here is the page's code, generated by Flash CS5.5 when publishing the swf:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en">

Create tables with AlivePDF?
View 3 RepliesI am using a html parser [URL].. to render several tables into a movieclip.My problem is: as it takes some time to render, the only one actually being added to the movieclip is the last one. I would use a timer, but that means I would need to call a function, and I am using a "for" loop to build the movielips. Is there a way to say "wait for x seconds before continuing processing" in ActionScript3?
View 2 RepliesI want to basiclly create a spot the differance game but instead of the user being able to just click on side of the pictures to get the answer, i want them to click on one picture and than the other picture to get the answer. So basiclly they have to click on the picture on the left and than on the right to mark something as a answer which would link both pictures. Or another example, is linking two tables. If i had two tables up and the objective was for the user to link one line of the table to another on the other table, it would link and draw a link from one side to the other showing the link.
View 1 RepliesI have a flash project that connect with a server. I get all data from the server as raw tables as XML. So I have to do the server logics client side. (Don't ask why!)
I have looked for a framework or some code base that have solved this. A framework that can do mapping of keys asf. Basically a frame work that stores the data and handles retrieving of the data like SQL.
Ie. I can get user with the userid without iterating through all the instances. This gets more complex when you have more id in the same table.
So is there a data framework for flash out there?
(the HTML 5 sqlLight would be great if more browsers supported it)
I'm using a font that has a kerning table with a TextField object to display text. However, it appears the kerning table is never being used.[code]I figured kerning=true would force the text field to abide by the font's kerning table. If I use the same font with the new Flash text rendering engine it seems to respect the kerning tables as expected, but at this point we can't switch to the new rendering engine.
