ActionScript 3.0 :: Making A Javascript Function Work Through Flash?
Dec 10, 2010
i want when press a button on that flash header the test.php is redirect to another php page without the flash header be reloaded , and i actually made it but with form buttons and ajax ofcourse , so all i need is when the flash button is clicked a javascript function in the test.php work ?? --> here is my try : i passed a url variable from flash to the same page to say which button is pressed through this code
ActionScript Code:
var vars:URLVariables=new URLVariables();
var url:URLRequest=new URLRequest("test.php");
Here's the challenge: I have a Flash movie which will be embedded in a page using an unknown DOM ID that I want to be able to identify/store for callback in a JS function. My ideal user flow would be: User clicks button in Flash. Flash pauses any animations / video / sounds / etc. Flash calls an injected JS function to display a page-covering overlay experience. When user closes overlay experience, a callback method on the Flash object is called. Flash resumes playback.
The problem is, when AS3 uses the ExternalInterface.call("functionName", args...) method, there doesn't seem to be a DOM event triggered, and thus it is impossible to tell which object called a JS function, so having a "registerMe()" function doesn't seem to work. Basically, the injected JS function has no way to determine which DOM object to call, because the ID of the Flash object is unknown.
I'd like to call a javascript function from an embedded .swf file. Specifically, I'd like to call a function in one of my externally linked javascript files from within: function loadTrack(){
[Code]...
which is in an .as file which I assume somehow becomes the swf file. How would I go about this and 're-compile' the .as file?
let suppose i have a object named "data" which has a callBack function named "closeItem" which does something. So i have flash file which has a close button. on click of that i am calling this function which closes this item. So issue is? If i pass this "closeItemFunction" as global function this works fine. but if a pass this function as a "data.closeItem" this doesn;t work throwing some falsh error. so i just wanna ask that "does flash only call gobal scoped javascript function" ??
I am refactoring some code. I have a PHP page that contains a MySQL query and stores the result in a PHP variable $my_result. This result is then echoed to a Flash SWF during embedding with SWFObject. I now want to call this PHP page that makes the query from a javascript function like so - one change I have made to the PHP is that instead of storing the result in a variable $my_result I am echoing the result. Javascript function to call the PHP page and make the database query
I am developing a flash application for a website I have no direct access to. The flash application is supposed to call a javascript function on the website, defined by the website publisher. I got advised to check for the existance of the javascript object before calling its' function from actionscript:
I am doing below actions on button click in sequence, using javascript.
Generating Flash chart Making image of generated flash chart Exporting generated image in to PDF
Everything is dynamic. chart is generated using Open flash chart and are dynamic using php Mysql
All working fine. Problem here is that is takes some time to generate flash chart. So it's creating a blank image or image in middle form flash file exporting it to PDF.
I'd really like to use this package in Flash as3:[URL]... I've copied the source and saved it as a file called MP3Loop.as. In the same folder I have a .fla with some code in it like this:
var looper:MP3Loop = new MP3Loop(); So far as I can see this should be all I need to have a play with the package, but it doesn't seem to work. Instead I get this error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at MP3Loop/initUI() at MP3Loop() at loop_test_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()
i have some question here.. Umm i want to put all of my swf and exe files into CD ROM, but i have ever seen that exe flash files can be able run on CD ROM, if i copied that files into my harddisk, that appear alert that "Please use the CD ROM to run this application".. Do you know how to do this?? is there are some script that detect if CDROM then or whatever?..

I want to ask that how could we embed a flash banner so that it should work with IOS as well. Currently I'm using this code, but want to change it so that it should work with IOS as well.
I have a SWF file emedded withing a HTML page. Trying to do a simple operation - go to and play certain frame in SWF using javascript. I'm using ExternalInterface to do this but for the life of me can't get the two to communicate. I add all the code but when clicking on the link which calls javascript, it says my flash object is undefined?
I'm trying to use Greensock LoaderMax on a Starling Framework project, but since Starling have a lots of its own class, how I can make it work with other classes that is using the native class?
I have a search form in my swf that consists of an input box and btn.
I have a javascript search function that works with a html form button, but I would like to run that function with my flash btn and use the text input box that searches for that string (don't want to use the Atomz search cause the free one comes with ads, I think).
To run a simple javascript (say, myFunction()) from a flash btn, you just do:
getURL("javascript:myFunction()"); and that works just fine for those types, but if they have vars in them, such as myFunction(myVars), then
I'm trying to call a javascript function from within my swf and I'm having a couple of problems which are confussing me somewhat. I'm using this to call the function from flash: ExternalInterface.call("pgcover"); I know that this is calling the function as I have set it trigger an alert action and this comes up properly. But I don't want the function to trigger an alert, this is just for testing purposes. I instead want it to change the styling on a div. I have set up a test page where I have asigned the function to a button and this works, the div display changes from block to none. When I get the swf to call the function setup to do the same thing, nothing happens.
I have what I think is an easy question but I am having problems with it... Using AS2 / CS3, I am calling a javascript function from Flash, but i would like the value to be a variable and I cant figure out how to do it. the started code is below and I need direction on how to make "myVar" actually a variable.
I have another question which i think is most easily solved by using javascript to find out if flash exist or not and dynamically modify the page. In my case place a placeholder, call jcupload code if flash exist or replace the placeholding div with my html
But the problem is i havent been able to find any javascript functions to tell me if flash is installed. All i found were html that displays alt html if flash isnt shown/enabled.
I have a site that has a button on it and someone did a little javascript so that each time you click the button you go to a randomly selected URL from an array of links. Now, I was told to give my flash button the same functionality. I'm not really a coder, so instead of re-inventing the wheel, I'm trying to get the result of the javascript into my action script. So far, I'm completely unlucky.
I'm trying to make it so a button I use in a swf talks to the swf's container and says...
fscommand ("javascript:changeMap('hodson.htm');")
so that in turn
function changeMap(building) { document.getElementById('buildingINFO').src=buildi ng; }
But that doesn't work. I also tried getURL in front of the AS instead of fscommand. basically it's an interactive map where I should be able to click a building and have information appear within a div tag to the right side.
I am trying to call a Javascript function in flash. I am able to call the function using the following code:
Code: ExternalInterface.call("alert");
I have a flash movie and I want the javascript function to be called when the movie finishes but the code above calls the function at the beginning. Would anyone be able to tell me how I would get this to work the way I want it to?
I am posting a thread regarding passing a javascript returned value into Flash. It is slightly complex due to the solution I am looking for must target Flash Player 6.
I have looked at various solutions including the Flash / JavaScript Integration Kit wrote by the guys at the former Macromedia. Unfortunately the solution involved includes various classes and then import them in Flash which produces the following error:
The class or interface 'com.macromedia.javascript.JavaScriptProxy' could not be loaded.
The Javascript I want to retrieve the value from looks like:
<script language="JavaScript"> <![CDATA[ function CheckIn(){
[Code].....
I just need to pass the returned value into a variable within Flash.
I have a web page with a couple of Flash Input TextFields. When I press a button on my web page, I am using javascript (jQuery) to get all the values from the text fields and checkboxes etc on the page.
In order to get a value out of my Flash TextField, I understand that I have to use the ExternalInterface API. I am using ActionScript 3.0 and Flash CS4.
In the flash IDE, I have a layer with just the textbox instance and another layer 'actions', which has all the actionscript.
As soon as I put: import flash.external.ExternalInterface
in my code, then the textfields full functionality does not seem to work on the webpage.
I assumed what I had to do was something like:
import flash.external.ExternalInterface; ExternalInterface.addCallback("getFlashFieldText", getText); function getText():String { return myTextField.text; }
then I thought that perhaps I had to call a javascript function to return the textfields value like so:
function getText():void { var word:String = myTextField.text; ExternalInterface.call("alert", word); }
but nothing is working, and I think it is strange that the textfields functionality (some letters being styled) does not work as soon as I import the ExternalInterface class. I have tried putting the ActionScript 'actions' layer in a package, but it didn't help. As you can probably tell I am new to Flash and Actionscript, and I would be very greatful if someone could point me in the right direction.
