View 8 RepliesAny suitable script that will close the browser on clicking a swf quit button as the fscommand below does not work.
close_btn.onRelease = function(){
fscommand("quit");
}
This is for a Moodle application where the swf is opened in a new browser window and it would be cool to close it with the swf quit button.

View 1 RepliesI have a .swf movie that is accessed through a link on a website. At the end of the movie are two buttons: one for "Back" and the other for "Replay." I have the buttons working so the Back button goes to the previous URL and the Replay button, well, replays. However, the Back button opens a new window. Is there a piece of Action Script 3 that I can add to the following to close the window in my .fla Action Script Window to close the window as it jumps to the URL? Here is the script.

I am making a flash application and I am trying to find function to use when I press the close button of the projector window. I dont want to make a button that uses fscommand("quit") since this would be impractical knowing that a default close button on the window is already available. Anyway the purpose of the function is that when I close my application, a dialog box/message would appear as a reminder that some data has not yet been saved and give the user an option to save or quit the application.
View 2 RepliesI created a Flash application that reads POST data from a form. A user clicks the button, and the data gets posted to the flash app in a new window (_blank). Now takes the data and then spins a wheel to give users a prize. If they don't win a message pops up letting them know they didn't win. If they don't win, clicking the OK button needs to close the browser window.
I've tried a number of solutions and it seems that the only way to get this done is to launch the window with javascript and then use ExternalInterface.call('window.close'); to close the window from within the Flash actionscript (3) because otherwise the window won't close (I've tried just using window.close and window.close() with no luck)
I understand how to launch a new window with javascript, but I don't know how to simultaneously launch and POST data to that window (the Flash application has to have the POST data. Is this the best solution? Is there a way to close a browser window easier than what I'm describing?[URL]
I'm trying to create a pop up window in Flash which also fades the background window to 75% black. When the user closes the pop up window, I'd like for the parent window to un-fade back to normal. Is this possible? I can do the first half of it and make the background window fade to 75% black. The difficult thing is making it fade back to normal when the user closes the pop up window.My thoughts are that I need to attach some code to the browser's built in close window button. It might require some javascript or a fscommand. I'm not sure.

View 2 RepliesI am trying find the correct as3 code to make a button on Click, open a pdf in a new window. I have tried different ways, but when I add the code not only does it give me errors, but it makes my swf flip through all the pages instead of stopping on load. It is fine before I enter the code for this button. Just to let you know, this button is within a movie clip on the main stage. I really wanted it in a MC within another MC, but can't figure out where to put the code.
Should it go on the main timeline, where all the rest of the code is, or should it go within the MC?
i want to close browser by clicking on close button embedded swf. I have tried fscommand("quit"), but which is not working on browser.
View 9 Replieshow to make lightbox window open from flash. I just want to click a button to open a lightbox window.
View 1 Repliesmake an graphic (just a box with text in it) be shown as default, then when the user clicks (either clicks the box or anywhere or a cross - anything!) the window is hidden, then if the user wants to see the box again, they can click a button saying 'show info'.
And I looked on the forums and found ( showthread.php3?t=66284" ) << I can't post links because my post count is too low .
But I tried that (both methods mentioned) and i can't seem to get them to do anything?
I've got a drop down menu. I want to click a tab to make it drop then, if it's open, click it again to close. I've tried a million variations on the script below:
var btn_grp1:String
function main1Down(event:MouseEvent):void {
if (btn_grp1 != "dwn") {
[Code]....
This works too (once). So the drop down buttons all disapear again, but it won't re-set. The drop down menu stays up from then on.
BTW i'm not set on this method, it just seemed the most obvious i.e. if menu hidden, then show it, set some variable to down (showing), else hide the menu, set var to up (hidden). Not working though.
I just started out using autoscript 3.0. What I want is that when I click a button (with an image inside) it opens a new window with an enlargement of that image. I've already done the following:
1. Create new button
2. Set it's instance nam to appinvent_btn
3. Created new action layer.
4. Set up the following script in actionscript 3.0
appinvent_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DO WN, mouseDownHandler);
function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("???????????????????????????"));
}
It appears when I click the Next button on the window with the likert scale. I have no idea why its giving this error.
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
Does anyone know the syntax for closing a swf window using a button, similar to closing a popup window? I am creating a small game, and am giving the user the option to "play again" or "quit" at the end of the game, so i want the quit button(standard library on(press)) to close the swf file.
