ActionScript Code:
function goSite(event:MouseEvent):void {
var myURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("asite");
navigateToURL(myURL, "_parent");
}
It works perfectly fine when I test it, but after I load it onto an actual website it won't work anymore.
I searched around and the only thing I could find was somebody who said to set the publish settings to "Access network only"-- but it still doesn't work.
I'm trying to export an animated text image, but for some reason, when I publish in .gif format, the text is all screwed up. I have example of it, in the attached file. It worked for me in flash mx, but in flash cs4 it doesn't work. I want the text to be readable and animated, in this .gif.
View 4 RepliesI added 2 URLs to my project using AS3, when I test the movie the URLs work, but when I open the swf in the browser it does not work.
Is it because I did not upload the project to the server? or there is something wrong with the code?
This is the I code I used for my URLs:
GamLink1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, URLC);GamLink2_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, URLC);
GamLink1_mc.buttonMode = true;GamLink1_mc.useHandCursor = true;

I recently updated my flash to cs5.5 and my iPad (1g) to the IOS 5 beta. Since then I haven't been able to publish my apps to any IOS device. The apps run in adl and as swf on my macbook pro, but on my iPad (IOS 5) and iPhone 3gs (IOS 5) they just start up and freeze at the stage. I use a loader to load a soundfile and image to the stage right at the start but they just don't show up.
The weirdest thing is that my colleague uses cs5.5 on windows and cs5 on a mac to publish to the same iPad and his apps do work! When I tried to publish on another mac in cs5 I just got the same problem as before.
I hope someone knows a solution for this problem because it is getting on my nerves.
I'm trying to use navigateToURL with the "_self" parameter for a website navagation menu, but all I ever get is the url opening in a new window or new tab (depending on what browser you are using). What I would like is if it opens in the same window within the browser. For html validation purposes; I'm using a javascript ufo 3.22 (unobtrusive flash objects) method of embed. Here is my AS3 code which is in a standalone file (hope I got all necessary import packages included).

I know it's something real simple and I've read many a posts that scream "allowscriptaccess" issues, but even when I set that I still can't get it working properly.
i've created a flash animation with as3. at the end of the timeline i've got a stop(); action on the last frame which is working just fine. on the following frame i have the navigatetourl action navigateToURL(new URLRequest [URL]} for some reason which i've been incapable of figuring out it will not automatically flip to the page i have written in my action when the animation has finished playing.
View 8 RepliesHopefully a very simple fix here. I test my movie in Flash, even open it directly with the browser, and all is well. The gotoAndPlay works, and my animations look fine. However, when I publish the movie, and then test in the website, it stops after the first frame! What gives?
View 2 RepliesThe main class shown below is showing a blank screen and is NOT navigating to [URL].
package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.net.navigateToURL;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.net.URLVariables;
public class NavigateToURL extends Sprite {
public function NavigateToURL() {
var url:String = "[URL]";
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
navigateToURL(request); }}}
We send SWFs out to other networks, and it seems that one of these networks has used our SWF, but they have prevented navigateToURL() from running. So no links work in the game (to give us traffic). How has this happened? Is there anything as a Flash Developer i can do to ensure a link works as i have never see navigateToURL intercepted before.
View 0 RepliesI'm currently having an issue with FMS4 developer edition on both Linux (x64) and Windows XP (x86).When I stream a webcam using ns.publish("foobar", "live") I can watch the live stream on another client, however when i use ns.publish("foobar", "record"); neither broadcasting nor recording works.Using the "live" parameter the client appears in the log files and in the administration console as "publishing", using "record" the client appears as "idle".Is there anything I need to configure besides LIVE_DIR in fms.ini?
Is this a restriction in the developer edition? Here is the relevant part of the code (condensed):

I am working on a simple art scroller that will scroll images across the screen. It is very simple but my problem is that when I try to use NavigateToURL certain layer/instances will not work unless they are placed on top of the other layers (except AS layer). Other layers seem to work perfectly fine under the other layers. All in all I have approx. 15 layers all with one piece of art, instances at all keyframes and a actionscript layer on top.

The auth_addin works as expected when using the Flash Media Live encoder requiring a username and password before publishing a stream.However, tools like Wirecast and even the sample broadcasting SWF that comes in the FMS Introduction page can publish a stream without providing any credentials!
View 1 RepliesI hired someone else to do the scripting for an animation that I originally created. It calls an xml file which displays 3 different items in the flash. It works great... except when I open the FLA file and republish it even if I don't change a single thing, the resulting SWF file does not work. I've tried everything to no avail. The script writer is using CS3. I am using CS4 although I HAVE tried with CS3 (on different computer). Both the script writer and myself work on Macs. The script writer even sent screen shots of the publish windows, and I'm selecting all the exact same options. (version 9, AS2). Has anyone else run into this type of problem? I'm at witt's end. I really need to be able to make changes to this file and republish it. I can post the FLA file if someone wishes to take a look.
View 18 RepliesI decided to try to use setInterval for myanimation, which is just a mouse trail.However, I'm trying to get teh mouse trail to be a dynamic mask.In my previous swf this was achieved by using a holder mc with the animation inside and then using this as the mask. But this time I just canpt seem to hit on the right way to get it to work. The code I am using for the mouse trail is:
Code:
var i:Number = 0;
var myInt:Number;
var t:MovieClip;[code].....
in the function, but now the trail doesn't resize and the mask still doesn't work.
I have a button object that I need to scale to align with the variable width of an array of images.However, when I set the width in code, the button does not actually become that width. Tracing out the width gives me the correct value, but on screen.. it's off.
I've proved it to myself by scaling the same button object manually in the properties pane and visually comparing. Both of the buttons below have a width of 410.
Code:
navigatorDown_btn.width = 410;
navigatorDown_btn.x = (stage.stageWidth/2)-(navigatorDown_btn.width/2);
trace(navigatorDown_btn.width); // output: 410
I have a swf that is pretty complicated, you can interact with the page and go to different keyframes and it stops and/or starts depending on buttons, but I want to put it in a fla or something so I can put other swfs next to it and build it up and put several of them together as one.
I don't care about making it too complicated, I just want one interactive swf to go to the next compiled swf when that movie ends, but when I try importing it or loading it it just runs straight through without stopping or paying any attention to the scripting.
I am trying to more between frames using the data returned from a node n_EventID in an xml, when the node returns "1408" I want to move to frame 1 but if it returns anything else I want to move to frame 2. The part where the code moves to frame 2 seems to work perfectly but I can't seem to move to frame 1 when "1408" is returned.
xmlResultFinish = new XML();
xmlResultFinish.ignoreWhite = true
xmlResultFinish.onLoad = loadXmlResultFinish;

I'm having a problem, where random IE's are not able to display my .swf file. All the IE's are IE8 with the latest flash pluggins and all security's are set at Medium, however some IE's get just a grey box and other's get the full flash file. What's going on? It works fine in Safari and Firefox of course, but why so much difficulty with AS3 Flash9 in IE? here is a link to the site, and it's the big image changer at the bottom of the front page.

But my proublem is that I have a flash presentation.The defalt for moving the slide screens back and forth are left and right arrows.It works fine when tested or even the .swf fileBut then the left and right buttons don't respond when I go to fullscreen.

this is what i have on the maintimeline:[code]I have 4 moveiclips called: redhex, bluehex, greenhex, and yellowhex.what the above code should do is make a 15x15 grid of hexes (yes i wanted all 4 hex mc's overlapping each other at each space on the grid.).Before i added the lines to dupllicate the blue, green, and yellow hexes also... the redhex movieclip duplicated exactly as it should.But after adding the lines to duplicate the blue, green, and yellow hexes also, in the same locations...

I've made a rounded rectangle with a gradient fill and another rounded rectangle over it with a transparency to create kind of a glossy effect. Both objects are part of a symbol in the library of the FLA file. Then, I activated the checkbox to create a scale-9 grid, and the Export for Actionscript checkbox in order to add this symbol from AS3. Next I made sure that every rounded corner was completely included in the slices on the edges of the grid. Well, no matter what, the object is scaled as a normal graph: the rounded corners appear bigger and deformed.

I'm in a big distress, I'm using AS2 with CS3 (Flash 9.0 on OSX Snow Leopard) and I can't get the querystring. I don't understand it has always worked before with my previous version of Flash. I'm using this AS code: t_txt.text += _root.age; I have a dynamic text linked to t_txt. For the HTML I simply published using Flash, then I changed in the html file like this:
<param name="movie" value="age.swf?age=56" />
And
<embed src="age.swf?age=56" quality="high" etc >
When I set to use AS1 it just works fine. But I can't use AS1 all my projects are with AS2. So what's wrong?
flash cs5 wont follow s3's redirects, instead it makes an ioerror with http status code 303 which is not an error code, its a redirect code. It doesn't hit the redirect page at all. If i was to save this file as a cs4 doc and run it in cs5, same issue. If if was to open and run it in cs4, it works fine, no error, redirect gets hit.Exactly the same file works in cs4 but not in cs5.
