I am trying to make a very simple rss reader to display news feeds. All I really want to do is have a text box display the first item of the feed, wait for a moment, then display the next one. I've been searching around and can't find any decent tutorials on the subject.
For my class' final project, I created a little eBay search tool platform. It
1) performs a search (and the link generates affiliate coding so commissions would result if an eBay affiliate used this application on their website),
2) it shows a few eBay-related news feeds, and
3) it shows some beginner's videos showing how to buy on eBay.
Playing the swf as a movie on the desktop, within Flash, works fine.However, since I've published the swf into a webpage, the search function and one of the RSS feeds do not work. My application is at: [URL]I've read about crossdomain policy issues, but I'm stumped about that. Using FireBug, I see an error message:"NetworkError: 404 Not Found - [URL]This is the domain where I'm calling the RSS feed. Because this domain does NOT have a crossdomain.xml policy in place, does that mean that no matter what I do, I'll never be able to draw from it? I've set up a crossdomain.xml file in my website's root and it consists solely of:
This works when I cut and paste a sample URL into the browser, say, when I substitute a search term minAmt and maxAmt into that gobbledegook. The search never returns anything when this app lives on a published html page...
I am new at Flash and I put together this code (below) it's for an RSS Feed which seems to be working fine, however, I would like to have it display in a scroll box and I can't seem to find the way to do it. I need to create several widgets and once I learn how to create the first one I will be able to design them the way I need them.
Code: Select allvar holder:Sprite = new Sprite(); addChild(holder); init(); function init():void{ var urlLoader : URLLoader = new URLLoader (); urlLoader.addEventListener( Event.COMPLETE, OnRSSLoaded, false, 0, true ); [Code] .....
I want to pull in data from a rss / atom feed into flash and show a movieclip everytime the feed is updated. Most tutorials I find are about displaying the information. I want real time movieclips to display if and when the rss / atom feed is updated without any of the information from the actual feed displayed.
I have developed a twitter API in Flash Professional CS4. It works fine when it plays in the flash player locally. But when I publish the file and play it in a browser it asks for settings to be modified. Since those were the local settings I have modified them and played the file in browser and it worked fine. when I upload the file to server and embed the swf into a html file and try to play it from the server nothing happens. The API doesn't load the feeds from twitter site. The display is always blank.Possible solutions I have tried.....
[URL]I'm looking to make a page like this (go to the NEWS page).Does anyone know how to do this, or if there are any components out there that do this? I am familiar with making a standard xml page with just text, but I'm not sure how to add the videos and photos.
scrollpan with the news on the main page? I have tried tons of things, but haven't gotten something I want..I have made something just now that works like that, except the text doesn't work completely...Basically, I have a bounding box with a mask over the test I want... Code I use (and this is applied to an MC with the whole "container" pan")
My problem is basically I place my content box in the mask and it will start the whole thing at half way... the box will scroll and everything works. it's just that the content starts half way, so half the box will be empty towards the bottom.
I've made a horizontal news ticker that scrolls a string from right to left using substring method and by changing the alignment. This works OK but I would like the text to start displaying again before it disappears completly off the left of the screen. I've attached the fla and swf.
I'm working on a project and attempting to create a dynamic news page by loading from an XML file. Everything seems to display fine for some people, for others it loads every dynamic text field with an instance path such as "_level0.instance1.instance30.instance45.conte ntMa in.Body1".
Here's the code I'm using:
Code: function loadXML(loaded) { if (loaded) { _global.atitle1 =
im trying to make a simple animated news page for digital flash magazine, I want there to be several boxes on the page that are static until you mouse over them at which point they will start to animate. I have got that far i have created the symbol and i have build the animation inside of the symbol.In my actions layer i have put...
Symbol.stop();
Symbol.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, animateMC); function animateMC(evt:MouseEvent):void{ Symbol.play(); }
and that works the symbol is static until i mouse over and it begins to play the part im having an issue with it making the animation stop when you move your mouse away (MOUSE_OUT)
I am working on the news ticker module (AS2) where I have to fetch news from xml and populate that news headings into four text fields and these 4 headings will stay for a while and fade until last record. this process will continue.

I'm using Fuse and wanted to target the dynamic text and or background portions of the headline section.
However, this movie clip is attached to the menu_mc so I'm stumped as to what I should exactly target for the fuse sequence (or any mx.transition/zigo engine based code-tweening process for that matter).
I've attached the files in a .zip for people to look at (and possibly conquer my problem!
I wanted to add a second news box under the first one and have it pull the first two news items in the xml file and have it displayed on the movie. Currently it is putting the first news item in both news boxes.ction script so that the second box is actually the second "<news> tag". From the tutorial I removed the <info> <author> and <comment> tags.
I want to display the like count of a page on my flash application. "When loading my flash app I can send and load a url which can return the count information of the like page"

I'm currently building an application using the Adobe Facebook API and I've run into an issue where for the login method the Facebook login popup displays but when doing a Facebook share/post the popup is blocked.
This code works fine and displays me a Facebook login popup without question (Firefox):
when the user go to my app page and the swf is downloaded I'm using session = new FacebookSessionUtil( this.API_KEY, this.SECRET_KEY, this.scope.loaderInfo );session.login();... then the system open a new window showing the login form.My question is How can I prevent it? There are some way to log users from my swf?possible solution I can think of: login via PHP, and pass via FlashVars the session ID obteined by PHP, then start a session inside my SWF movie.
just using getURL doesn't work if :1)the user doesn't have auto login for facebook turned o2)did not have facebook already opened on 1 of the pages of his browser. o:It will instead redirect user to login pg after which a search page with search results. The page i want user to see is actually way back on the list. How do i link a flash website to a facebook page
I'm using the FB API and it's working fine. I can post a photo just fine, and I can post to the users wall with me/feed but I need the post to include a link to another FB page. I learned yesterday that you can't post a link within a wall post - ie the users feed, so I'm trying to post a like, but not having any luck.
I need to create an image upload app for our company's facebook page. I've been able to successfully create the app on facebook and it pulls from a location on our web server. Right now it's just an index.cfm file with hello world in it.We're having a photo contest and what we need to do is provide a quick form (name, email, phone, photo to upload, and photo description).When a user fills out the form and uploads the image, the image shows on our app with the description and then we are notified that someone has uploaded and image.
Is there a way for a Flash Facebook app in an iFrame to detect if the user is a fan of the page using the Graph API for Actionscript 3? If not can I achieve the same goal using Javascript? without asking the user for permission (no access token required).
