I was reading about Flex- JavaScript communication via ExternalInterface.But I had a doubt, it said that the javascript code should be written in the HTML file of the application ? Now which is this HTML file ? Is it the index.template.html file per project or the HTML file created per MXML application ?

I'm having a problem with loading an XML file that was created by Filemaker. Filemaker will output an XML file using one of two different grammars. One outputs in a mostly standard form that I can use with one glitch. Flash CS4 AS3 seems to have a problem with the xmlns in one of the nodes.
When I set the 'Publishing Setting' to 'Permit Debugging', Flash never generates the swd file when the target script language is AS3.If I change the script language to AS2 it generates it.I have tried on CS3 and CS5.how to generate this swd file for AS3 projetcs?I have tried with large files and with empty files always with the same result.
I urgently need to be able to check the authenticity of a Flash CS4 file. There is no information given about author etc in the properties using Windows but I was hoping that Flash embeds author information and history.
I have created a Flash intro for my website my hosting compnay is Godaddy and the only load certain types of index files. How do I either embed or publsih this swf file to display as whole screen. When I publish as intro.htm I only get a small window in the upper right corner.
I am trying to add to my site a feature that allows users to select a set of images in Flash (AS3) click a button and have my server create a zip file of all the images for them to download.
I have already wrote my code in flash and crated my php script and tested it on my localhost and everything works great. But when I upload the same files to my sever no zip files are created. Below is the code for both my flash and for my php.
Localhost server is using 5.2.17 and so if my Server hosted on 1&1
Flash Code To Send Info to PHP
Code:
function MakeZip():void { var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables(); //variables.Image1=img1; variables.ImageList=OrderItems;
I have a SWF file I created using Adobe Flex and I cannot seem to properly embed it inside an HTML page. If I take another SWF file and use it instead, it works all the time. My SWF file is pretty big (1 MB) while the other one is tiny (25 KB). However, I can wait 5-10 minutes and the server connection is super fast and it still will never load. Is there something I need to do to the SWF to have it start up properly? My SWF almost never runs.

I downloaded a flash app the other day. I can't put links since I don't have 50 posts, but if you type Dj Mixer on ActiveDen, it should come up.Basicly, it allows you to put sounds in a folder, add them to an XML file and the flash application acts as a mixer with a timeline. You can select which loop you want at what time and create your own track.There's one thing though, it doesn't allow you to export the sound. I have no experience in that area so I was wondering 2 things:- What would exporting the sound in an .mp3 format from the compiled sound loops involve in terms of complexity? Can this be done in a short time frame or is this something that requires a lot of knowledge and ressources?- Once the exporting to .mp3 part is done, I wanted to able to take that .mp3 and send it to my phone. Do you guys know of any Websites that offer a suitable solution for this?
I habitually create my websites with a stage size of 950 x 580. They tend to appear slightly small in any browser which is ok because they can all normally be "zoomed-in" on using the browser zoom functions.
I have just created a site which loads several external .swf's into a main movie clip and the browser zoom works fine UNTIL I incorporate a further .swf which was created from a PDF file (using swfTools - pdf2swf).
This seems to disable the normal browser zoom with the effect that everything is just moved up and left a little rather than remaining centred and enlarging.
So I've created an interactive map that loads info in from a csv file and displays that information on 120 cities with a radius around each city.The cities have been manually placed on the map and the data is sent to them from a custom function.The problem I'm having is with the RollOver effect on the radius as some of my cities end up underneath the other ones as the radius grow and subtract through a timeline.I'm just wondering of the best way to give each city a set depth and then arrange the depth order within a set number of depths.Should I attempt to put all the cities in an array that way I can check the size of each city in the array and order the depth = to the value of the radius size.
I created a movie that loads an XML file into flash and then.. does stuff with it (Like put text into text fields)My problem is that it works when I test it on my computer, but when I upload it and test it on my website, the XML file doesnt load.The movie is the XML load into has been loaded dynamically, as has the one above it (Like this: Lobby Clip > Games room clip > newgames Clip)
I have created a file where the navigation buttons go the correct sections.Once there I have different buttons at the bottom of the page to navigate.Do I put the action on the frame (Portfolio,About,Contact) to return home, play my portfolio, contact me?I tried it... I got a duplicate error.[code]
I am trying to create Flash video for usb drives sold to customers with their pictures on it. After the video plays, can I have a link to a local folder, IE: named YOUR_IMAGES on the drive, and have that folder open on their machine when clicked? Or is there to many variables with what what the drive letter name that will be assigned on customers machines? So there will be the same .SWF on every drive sold, then a folder named the same thing with the customer pics on it.
I'm currently trying to find out how to create external files from a SWF/exe/app file created in Flash. Essentially I'm building a program to create templates for levels in a game. The SWF will be run locally (e.g. not online) and will allow the user to add/remove objects to a level of their design. They then need to be able to save the level template (ideally I need to be able to save as a JSON* file, but I'm sure I could get away with just a simple txt file) somewhere on their computer. These templates will them be imported by the game itself (not written in Flash, hence why I need to save the data as a json or txt file), which will then re-create the levels from the data contained in the save file.
I had assumed this would be something that was really simple to do, but I cannot seem to find any tutorials or information on how to create external files. I can find plenty on reading from existing external files, but nothing about actually writing a new file entirely. I have read a few people complaining that non-local Flash SWFs cannot access the user's hard drive for security reasons, but cannot find any information on local SWFs.
If anyone could tell me even roughly what I'm looking for, it would be greatly appreciated. I'm a bit stuck just now haha *I have downloaded the corelib files which allow me to work with JSON files
I've used the GUI to create a rectangle that I turned into a button symbol (SimpleButton). I then edited the button so that it had 4 different button states and a text layer on top. I then created a class definition file for this object so that I could dynamically change the label text (the text layer) when adding instances of this button to the stage.
I was able to create and link a class file (DynamicButton.as) just fine, but when I try to access the text field that I created on the button, I get the error:
"Access of possibly undefined property btnLabel through a reference with static type com.examples:DynamicButton."
when i couldn't get that to work, I decided I'd try adding the TextField directly within the class definition file, using the following code:
The problem is that I can't seem to add the TextField to the SimpleButton, as it's not a display object. So, I tried adding it to the parent of the simple button (and I figured, I'd just place it exactly above the button). But then I get a "null object reference." error.
is there a way to access GUI-created elements from w/i a class definition file? How would I add the TextField to the button using only AS3 inside of a my class definition file?
I'm trying to debug my flash application and when I build and run it in debug(in FlashDevelop), it crashes. Is there a dump file which can give me information about what caused the crash?
how to save the content of an array in an csv file that already has a content. its like overwriting the content of the csv file. the array is like this (Array [1][1]). i've search and googled it but every answer i got is still wrong.
i am taking text from xml file,I have created multiple movie clips based on the xml file. i have placed 5 movie clips to left side and 5 movie clips to right side.Now i have to drag the left movie clip to the right side and i have to drop it on respective movie clip to match the target and i have to get the output as "correct" if the match is found. But for my below code i am getting only the "wrong" as output ,i dont know where is the error
Here's some background: I am working on a project in which we have one main Flash file that loads other Flash swfs into an empty movie clip within the main file.The main file instantiates a class I've made (stateManager) into a _global variable.This object keeps track of the most recent states of the other individual files so users can navigate between them all and come back to the same status they left it.Here's the issue:In the sub files, I need to access the _global object, which was created in the main file, many times so I would like to use the 'with' construct to reduce typing. However, because the 'with' statement needs an object to reference, I am unable to publish my files .I've tried adding an if-statement at the top of each file (if(_global. stateManager == undefined){ ), but this doesn't work either.I've included a portion of my code for you.
Code: import classes.stateManager; if (_global.stateManager==null) { _global.stateManager = new classes.stateManager("./InitFiles/global.xml");[code]....
I have created a preloader in flash, with help from a tutorial, but it doesn't work properly. The preloader starts with loading on 100%. This is what I'm talking about:[url].......I created a smaller file to demonstrate my problem.
I'm making videos for an instructional program. This involves importing audio, images, animating those images, etc. I'll be exporting to flv format at the end, and then converting them to MP4 for downloads online.H
1.) Should I be using ActionScript 3.0 or ActionScript 2.0 for this?
2.) When I try to import audio, the whole audio file doesn't show up immediately in a new layer that I've created. It only goes in the blank keyframe that I've inserted. How do I import the audio so that the entirety of it shows up?
I am using a trial version of CS5, and I'm wondering if this is the cause of my issue, but wouldn't think so.I am trying to display a video in a basic HTML file created in Dreamweaver.I am using flash to generate the .swf file to be embedded.I used the media encoder to convert the video file I have from .avi to .f4v.This all seems to work just fine and when I test the html file locally it works.The issue I have is when I load the files on a web server for further testing, it plays the video, but there are no controls visible on the page for the video.As stated above, they display correctly when I run this locally.I have also loaded the skin.swl file on the server in the same location as I have it locally.I have tried everything I can think of to try and can not get the controls to display while deployed on my web server.
