View 1 RepliesI'm not quite sure how to describe the problem I'm having but I'll do my best. I have an image gallery built in AS3 that loads content via an XML file. Nothing mind blowing here... When testing locally on a static XML file, the gallery works as intended. The purpose of this gallery is to function within a CMS and load dynamically generated XML files to display the appropriate images/info for each particular gallery. All this functions fine, to an extent...

import or load a library of .as3 files into flash.I found a library that has many .as3 files in folders and subdirectories.How do I use these in a flash as3 project?Do I just stick the folder into the same folder as my project?
import myfolder.filename
Or is there a formal process for importing an entire folder with subdirectories of as3 files.

I'm doing a Flash Banner for an ADv campaing. Since the max swf file size allowed is very low, I'm trying to load external JPG images from the main server.Reading the crossdomain policies for Flash movies I see that:You cannot load variables or XML data into a Flash movie from another domain.
It's the same with static files as Jpg images?I'm testing the banner with various results: looking in Firebug, images are always loaded, but sometimes they appear, sometimes not, sometimes only the first time (it's a loop). There are no warnings however.
Loading the Banner with the same domain as the static images always works.I also tried to put a crossdomain.xml file on the domain that serves the static images, but problem seems to continue (maybe Flash cache that request somewhere..
Load multile SWF files from XML data and upon NEXT and BACK button it should appear in Movieclip.. and it should have Tween effect..

View 1 RepliesWhen developing a flash project on my machine I can use something like:
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("images.xml");
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, handleResult);
[Code]....
As long as the images.xml file is located in the same directory as the .fla then it works fine. However once I move the .swf, .xml and my images to the web it all goes down the drain. The .swf can no longer find the .xml file and I know why. Using FlashBug I can read the error in the console.
IOError: [IOErrorEvent type="ioError" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Error #2032: Stream Error. URL: http://www.mydomain.com/images.xml"]
And there's the problem when I move my .swf to my web server the URLRequest adds my domain to the request. Since the file was just located in the same directory on my machine it didn't cause an issue to just say "images.xml" but now in order to make it work I have to change it to [URL]
I want to know if there is a way to force the .swf to just continue to look in the directory it is in for the files it needs. I think having to spell it out is counter-intuitive because then I can't just move the files without having to re-write my AS3 code.
I've been trying to create a screensaver that dynamically loads images and text from a server, but it seems like I am not able to load anything outside of my own computer at all.t seems like the problem is coming from the Security Sandbox, the sandbox type for the screensaver stays "Local_with_file" meaning it can access local files but cannot access files from the network. What can I do to make the Sandbox "Local_with_network" as I do not need to load anything locally, but images and text from a server.
View 1 Replieshow to load files to a Flash site Dynamically from a remote server. The first part was showing how to load a .txt file.
I have created a dynamic test field and give it an instance name of myTextArea. Then I uploaded the .txt file to my server in a testing folder. At the beginning of the paragraph in the .txt file I put homeText= Then going back to Flash CS3 I made an Action Script layer and entered the following code there;

But when I go to test the movie I get a "undefined" error (I guess it is an error) where the text should load in the dynamic text field.
Is there way to get the browser to always load any swf files before everything else on a page (exept the external css and swfobject.js). Using Firebug's Net statistics I can see the swf files generally load last.
We have all our external js files inserted at the bottom of the page to help loading times.
I have created a button in flash 8 to act as a play button for mp3 files on a website in drupal. I however am having trouble, since am new to ActionScript, to make the button load an external mp3 file without hardcoding it in the flash.

View 3 RepliesI know Flash developers have done Kiosks and renovated arcade games. "Come on, we see Flash everywhere."Can I prepare my swf files like an image gallery and receive XML commands to load it? Where do I start? Flash/After Effects skills have got me through so far,
Criteria
TCP/IP socket connection
Flash package
XML commands load swf file in to a container
How do I prepare my Flash files and XML sheet to receive commands "any sample out there"?What about e.data,urlLoad ,xmlSocket Class, XMLCP/IP XML socket connection to load ?Is binary or XML method better for loading and reloading swf files?Do I need Red5 or a media server?
I've been fooling with this problem since AS2.0 (and shared Objects) and I'm not much closer to solving it, partly because every article I read on it is focused on php and server-side stuff that doesn't apply. How to load a String Array from a txt file in local user space (the folder from which the .swf is run). What I need to know: The easiest way for the user to save/load a file. The file has to contain Objects and Arrays reflecting his current status in the game. The goal is to avoid non-Flash apps and languages, and external Classes if possible (I do everything right in the main fla). I don't mind that the user has to initiate and approve the upload/download.

I have a question about loading external data. When I had all my actionscript export to frame one, it would slow down the preloader and not show up until it was far into the progress bar animation. So I moved everything to frame 2. The problem with that is now my menus which are populated from an xml file are not there when the site starts to play. How can I get my xml data to load on frame one, but leave the .as fils to load in frame 2?
View 6 RepliesI want to have an AS3 app load images from url supplied by the user. But I don't want a malicious user to be able to load an SWF file in place of the image, such as with an altered extension "maliciousSwf.png". Well, not sure how big a security threat that is above and beyond the ability of the hacker to decompile swf, but I think that ideally such behavior should not be allowed.
So, is there any way to prevent this? When people allow users to load images in their Flash apps, do they somehow guard against loading of SWF? Or is this really absolutely no big deal?

View 1 RepliesThis is driving me nuts right now! I'm trying to load different swf files, but for some reason the first swf keeps reloading instead of new one. This is my structure: I have a main file main.swf where I can load in 1.swf, 2.swf or 3.swf. Lets say I load 1.swf, that works fine. But When I'm in 1.swf I have 3 buttons where I can load 1.swf over agian, or 2.swf or 3.swf. No matter which button I press I always load in 1.swf!!
I have different names on loaders and functions! So everything is separated correctly. Just don't now whats going on, spooky!
I used to merge the .swf files by a free software named Flash Package. It can merge the individual swf files into a single swf file or .exe file. It will allow you play this single file again and again.Currently I find if the total swf files size are more than 500mb, it will not allow me to merge them together. Therefore, I think if I can write an Actionscript code that loads individual swf files and play them one by one. When it played all the file, it is able to automatically play the first one.Unfortunately, I only know how to load one file. I wrote code as follow:[code]My question is how I can tell flash that the previous swf file has been played and reached to the end then loaded next one?
