i've built the following site. [URL] the client wanted a video player - so i built a one, but bravo now says we have to use their video widgets if we want to post any of the topchef videos on our site... i was unhappy about this, stylistically, but fine - we do what we have to do. the problem is now i am thinking it might not be possible the embed code, to put the widget in an html file, is below. i tried using the loader class with the url given in data=. it gave me a sandbox security violation. the problem i am having - i think - is the id=. is there away to pass this with Loader or URLLoader or something. if we wanted to blow off bravo�s request to use their widgets - is there any good way of figuring out where they keep actual video files?
I want to create a photo browser web widget that can be embedded in a web page (e.g alice's blog) but I am not sure whether I should go the flash or javascript route. Flickr went with a flash based widget. Why would they do it in flash over javascript? why would you chose js based widget over flash.
[URL]I'm using CS5, AS3 and this is my code so far (I didn't complete the tutorial, as when it said to test it and I kept getting errors, I realised something was wrong)
Code:
var myXMLLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); myXMLLoader.load(new URLRequest("http//twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline.xml?screen_name=_Salter_")); myXMLLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, processXML);
[code]....
I've looked online and changed some publish settings, changing the local playback security to 'Access network only' and default linkage to 'merged into code'?
I bought a static flash site from flashden. But the developer does not reply my questions. I want to add widgets such as flash google earth or photo galery, video galery as an external swf but I could not. How can make this?
I'm very new to Flash, but I have an app that uses mult widgets. What I need to know is if one of my widgets data changes can I force another widget on the screen to force it to refresh its data.
I have a client where some of their employees have flash installed and some don't. So always using the swfuploader module widget isn't going to work and it doesn't gracefully fall back to HTML. In fact it just leaves a non-functioning button in its wake.
So what I would like to do is detect when they don't have Flash available and switch to the standard Drupal File Upload widget. Now in my head it seems like this would only work if done on the server-side. But can that even be done reliably on the server side?
Also, can this on-the-fly widget switching even work in Drupal or will it pitch a fit?
I've contacted Adobe sales and tech support, and realized that I need to talk to someone who actually develops with these tools.I want to develop some simple graphical widgets with the ability to reload themselves via an xml-socket a couple of times a second. Which Adobe tool should I buy-- Flash Builder, or Flash Pro?
I'm interested in embedding a video into my swf file automatically. Therefore, I managed embedding an flv file onto the stage, but the problem is that after I give the embedded video an instance name and refer to the instance in a command (f.e change x,y coordinates or change width/height), on execution of the swf, the video stays frozen while the audio plays. If I don't refer to the embedded video instance, the video plays normally, just not placed correctly on the stage.
i have a flash file which on mypsace can't load external files because it blocks it, script file so that the xml data is inside the .swf so it doesn't have to load it externally, im not sure how to do it ,
[URL]you will notice a slight flash of a white box before the preloader starts, i'm trying everything to make it go away! this box seems to be the same size as my embedded swf. the site and preloader are all in one swf. all i need to do is make that white box the same color as the background so it is unnoticeable.here is the code from dreamweaver (you'll notice im sticking in color values wherever i can!)

I have an AS2.0 scripted flash that behaves perfectly when not embedded, but then erratically when embedded. It is a dynamic masked mc with a mouseListener.event so that the magnifying glass follows the mouse as does the invisible mask and you get a magnifying glass effect. All is well outdie the HTML, but once embedded the mouse only erratically attracts the lens mc
is there anyway to place this embed code into my flash file? It's a code to an interactive flash file that I need to embed on a portfolio I'm making. I've tried countless methods of embedding youtube videos in an attemmpt to figure it out but nothing has worked. I'm using Flash CS5 with actionscript 2.Here is the embed code I'm trying to use.
I am trying to embed font in CS3. The chinese text is visible on local desktop but not on remote desktop. Below are the steps that I have followed.
* created a new font in Library and given a linkage name to it. [Tried with Arial UniCode MS and Lucida Sans Unicode]
* Given this font name to textField on stage.
* Registered this new font.
* enumerated the font in an array.Later assigned this font name to Font instance.
* Used FontInstance.fontName as textFormat's font and applied this textformat as defaultTextFormat.
* Assigned chinese hardcoded text.
I tried with textFieldName.embedFont=true, but it didn't. This swf shows chinese text on local desktop. But same swf when viewed from a remote desktop, chinese text appears as squares. Let me know if I am missing any step.
Hey there. I'm very new to Flash CS3. I understand the basic concept of the timeline. I'm not a programmer and I just want to create a FLASH movie that has video with audio and some text animation that I can add to my website. I have successfully created some very simple flash movies without video. My problem is that when I embed an AVI file the audio quality degrades so much that it's unusable. The full length of the viedo is about 9 minutes. It was professionally shot in studio and when I play the AVI file it is fine. I tried chunking up the video into 3 minute segments but that still didn't fix the audio quality. I then separated the audio from the video in Pinnacle Studio and then embedded the video into the timeline and added the audio, and now I can't sync up the audio with the video.
I have an empty movie clip in which an external video loads when the user clicks a button.now i need to add a second one, but this video lives online on another site, so all i have for this video is a link and the embed code (like youtube), so how can i have it display in an empty movie clip placeholder?again since I dont have the actual movie clip itself as is the case with the first one, I dont know how to go about this.. all i have is this:
I'm trying to make my own photography website using flash. I have a basic outline/template or what I want it to look like and all of the action script to connect the pictures but I'm missing the main things. The pictures. I have html embedding codes for all of the images and would like to use those somehow instead of just having to manually copy and resize my pictures into the actual flash document (because that takes up a lot of space and makes loading longer, I think).
I have built a few flash sites before and am trying to make one that is slightly more complicated and allows for dynamic, database stored images and text. I have built a dynamic gallery based on an XML feed in AS2 which works fine. I am trying to embed it into another FLA file that contains the remainder of the site (the gallery will be one page of the main site). I have tried a ridiculous number of different methods but just cannot get it to work. The gallery is built in AS2, so I am using an AS2 FLA file for the main template it is to be embedded in. The simplest method i have tried that i think should work is to create a new AS2 fla file, edit the actions on my actions layer to be: Empty.loadMovie("My Gallery.swf");
I have then created a new layer for the content and added a MovieClip to the top left of it, named Empty. I have set the instance name of this movie clip to be Empty. From what I have understood from my reading this is the simplest way to display the external file but for some reason it just will not work. It seems to see My Gallery.swf as when i delete it from the local directory i get an 'Error opening URL 'file:///D|/Websites/My Gallery.swf'' message. This message does not appear when this file exists locally, however it just opens a blank screen with nothing within it. I have been reading numerous tutorials and posts and i'm pretty sure i'm being thick, but for some reason i can't seem to get it to work!
my fonts displaying in my swf file. I created the flash site using CS4 on a mac. I thought the fonts were embedded but when I tested the swf in safari and firefox the fonts disappeared are all scrunched up in 1/2" on top of each other in several lines. Its a mess. It is displaying in times or some other font when viewed in on a pc browser.
What I did so far that did not work:
Made fonts static with animation made fonts dynamic with animation
I am having trouble embedding fonts with cs5. When i publish the text disappears.The text is dynamically loaded and when published appears blank. I'm using Actionscript 2 I need help with the scripting. I've selected the dynamic text box and gone to Type> font embedding and created a new font. Then exported it for actionscripting.What script do i have to put in the first frame so that it uses the font?
Is there any way to embed a java applet in a swf file? Looking online I could only find info about older versions of Flash, and wasn't sure if support had been added
how to embed a url in a .swf file? I have Macromedia Flash MX, as one option. Please explain how I can do this, or point me to a resource with step-by step instructions.
The entire banner needs to be a clickable link for the duration of the animation. So anyone can click on the banner at any point during the animation, and be brought to my site. I tried putting a frame at the end with getURL[URL] but that doesnt work. When I do that, the banner is not a clickable link, but the site opens automatically after the animation has played. Cant have that. So after doing some research, the apparent correct way to do this is by making a button, but I do that and the button obsures everything else.

I am trying to embedd two slideshows into my flash file.I already managed to integrate one, but I can't integrate another since my knowledge of actionscript is very limited. For people that know Flash well it is a really easy question. What do I have to rename in this script so that I can create a second slideshow, without always calling on the first one.Here is the script for the first slideshow:(I got it from the website where I bought the template for the slideshow from)
var loader:Loader = new Loader(); var monoslideshow:Object; loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.CO MPLETE, onLoadComplete);
