Is there a way to download a file with AS3 code from a server (other than creating a text hyperlink to be clicked), or is there a way to add a file to your library and then show it in you timeline. I am specifically referring to a .pdf file.

View 3 RepliesI'd like to have Flex trigger the browser to download a PDF file from a server, but if anything goes wrong with the script that generates the file I want to be able to throw a meaningful error from Flex. Is it at all possible to try to open the URL in Flex first and check the response's HTTP status or Content-Type, then if it's a PDF file and not an error pass it up to the browser to display the "Save File..." dialog?
View 1 Repliesi try to load file from remote server and open the file with default application.
private function getRemoteCourr(PathFichier:String, FileName:String):void {
urlStream = new URLStream();
fileData = new ByteArray();
var urlRemoteCourr:String = new urlManager().urlCourriersPat();
[code]...
Instead of a word document with image and text.
I want to download files from the server side to client side without prompting a window to the user to download when any updates happen at server side.Right now I am using urlstream class but first file is downloading completely rest of the files contents downloading partially.
editCode sample taken from other post. Warning: it's a huuuge chunk o'code.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:WindowedApplication xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
xmlns:MyComp="client.components.*" layout="absolute" height="554" width="817"
[code]....
The code flow is as follows: user clicks 'download details' button on the page -> on button click handler a call to a RPC method is made using s:CallResponder -> RPC method generates and returns a URL from where to download the file -> the success event handler of the CallResponder gets the url where FileRefrence.download() is used to download the file but throws following error:-
Error: Error #2176: Certain actions, such as those that display a pop-up window, may only be invoked upon user interaction, for example by a mouse click or button press.

I want my app (AIR app ported on iOS) to be able to show file located on the remote server and open it with default app (if there's one on device). Is it possible (maybe one can somehow use openWithDefaultApp here)?
UPD: I succeed with downloading (into File.documentsDirectory). I can't force iPad to open downloaded files.
UPD2: I tried to use both openWithDefaultApp and NavigateToUrl.

Problem is its opening the file rather than giving a download this file option.
So I basically have used the fileReference class to allow the user to download a determined file if he wants to.
I use the file.download(URL) function and it works well.
However, the file is downloaded and saved to the hard drive using only the flash player. The browser is not aware of the download, and thus, if I want to show the progress of the download I'd have to make some progress bar myself. I know how to do it, but it would become really tedious and take too much UI space.
Isn't there a damn way in Flash to "send" a determined file to the browser so that it prompts the user to download it? It's an image file, so navigateToURL doesn't cut it since it will just display the image, both if I use a new tab or the current one.

View 1 RepliesI'm using FMS 3.5 to record streams to the server as flv files, and would like the ability to directly download those generated flv files. Assuming these files are sitting in my applications/recorder/streams/_definst_ directory, how can I open up this directory to allow direct download via a url? Something like http://<ip ddress>/applications/recorder/streams/myfile.flv. I'm guessing this is just something that I need to put into one of the configuration files, but I'm having a bit of trouble figuring this one out.

I am playing YouTube videos in my Flash movie and display a list of the video thumbs. I preload the thumbs at the start of my movie. However, the thumbs have issues loading when they need to in Firefox. Safari and IE are fine. It seems to be a problem with my code resizing them. Without resizing they are displayed just fine, but with resizing, the loading just seems to stop sometimes. Anyway, I was now thinking it would be much better if instead of preloading them, the movie would automatically download them from YouTube to my server at the start of my movie. Does anyone know how (if) this can be done?
