ActionScript 3.0 :: NavigateToURL Vs Blocked Pop-up Windows

Apr 25, 2011

Assuming that I want to open some html file placed on server with the use of navigateToURL: navigateToURL(new URLRequest("MyDirectory_1/MyDirectory_2/index.html"), "_blank"); Html opened in this way makes browser treat it as a pop-up window. As a result the html is blocked by browser.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Get Pop Up Blocked When Using NavigatetoURL

Jul 14, 2008

I'm fairly new to actionscript. I have created a flash banner ad that is now hosted on a site. Whenever somebody clicks the banner IE responds witha a "pop-up blocked"!

The code that handles this is:
ActionScript Code:
clicky.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotourl);
function gotourl(e:MouseEvent):void {
if (root.loaderInfo.parameters.clickTAG.substr(0,5)=="http:") {
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(root.loaderInfo.parameters.clickTAG),"_blank");
}}

Where "clicky" is a SimpleButton that covers the entire flash. clickTAG is passed as an argument as to where to navigate. If I allow pop-ups everything works as it should! Howvere disabling pop-ups shouldnt be needed - and i see that other flash ads on the site works without and pop-up warning.

Actionscript 3 :: ExternalInterface / NavigateToUrl Popups Blocked When Called From SetTimeout?

Sep 19, 2010

The Symptoms: pop ups intermittently blocked/let through from external interface and navigateToURL combinations.The Problem: Flash (or the browser..not sure) wont let pop ups be triggered outside of a time range and/or an event duration.The Environment: I have an app that needs to send data via zendAMF, do some processing and be sent back to the flash player. On the response, if certain conditions are met true - then trigger a pop open window. The same code that gets blocked on response, works directly from a mouse event trigger.So i set up a basic situation: 6 buttons, calling 3 methods. 3 buttons would call the method directly (all open the window perfectly) the other three would get the value of a numeric stepper, and use setTimeout(openWinMethod, NumericStepper.value) to simulate a delayed call from the zendAMF response.

UPDATE : if i select the 'navigateToURL, no delay' button first, close that window, then try any of the other delay calls - they work. its like the browser accepts that you have clicked to open a window at some point and therefore are allowed to call from a delay then on. (firefox only)All three using the delay would be blocked (firefox and chrome) whereas all three directly would open.afari - as well documented, would only work on the 2 methods using navigateToURLf interest: the js function in the html wrapper would be called be external interface to open a window. Without a delay this worked. With a delay, the js function would be called (as verified by some alert statements) but a new window was never spawned./popup/

here is my as3 class:

ActionScript 3.0 :: NavigateToURL On Windows FF2 And IE7

Nov 17, 2009

I have a problem in Flash CS3 using AS3 which is driving me nuts. What I am doing seems easy enough and it works fine on Macintosh under Firefox and Safari, but I can't get it to work on Windows under Firefox 2 or IE 7.

I have a button on the stage with an animation that leads up to it's reveal, hence the stop() function in the AS. The button is labelled "Web_btn" and the purpose is to open a web site when the user clicks on the button. Ideally I would like the button to open in a new window but I understand that that is a problem due to web blockers so I have chosen to use "_self" for now. On the Mac (OSX 10.5.8 and Flash 10) everything works as expected but on Windows (XP SP3 and Flash 10) when I click on the button nothing happens. Here is the code I am using:

Code:
// Initialize
function init()

Windows :: Flex - MXMLC Throws A Java.lang.NullExceptionPointer When Compiling In Windows (not In Mac Nor Ubuntu)

Feb 23, 2011

I'm running ant to compile a Flex application, and the build keeps failing when running it on a windows command line. Other people in my team can successfully run the very same build under mac and linux. This is the error shown in the command prompt:

[Code]...

All tokens are set in corresponding build.properties and filter .properties files (and, as I said before, it compiles perfectly under mac and linux). The windows version is 7 Ultimate, FLEX_HOME is set as an environment variable to the Flex SDK 3.5 (the 3.5.0.12683 build that comes with Adobe Flash Builder Burrito). ${compiler.fork} is set to false, to avoid an issue with the SDK and the source files being in different logic drives.

Windows :: Flex - FileReference: Loading A Windows-locked File?

Mar 8, 2010

I'm using Flex in Flash Player 10 on Windows, using FileReference to load a file into memory, as below.My issue is that when a file is locked by Windows, my FileReference is not giving me any feedback that the file is inaccessible--it simply never dispatches any events after my calling load().Does anyone have insight into how to tell that Flash Player is unable to open the file?

fileReference = new FileReference();
fileReference.addEventListener(Event.SELECT, onSelect);

Flash :: Gets Blocked By ISP

Oct 2, 2011

I have developed a set of flash games which are being used by several schools across the UK. For some odd reason, the school cannot seem to load the Flash games.

Upon contacting the ISP (SWGFL) - I was told that the network would automatically block flash games. This is all well and good BUT the school in question is able to load the following flash game[url].

I am currently using a PHP layer to communicate between Flash and a MySQL database. I was wondering if anyone knew any reasons as to why this might occur? Is there some kind of header() protocol I need to add to bypass this flash blocking?

Windows :: Embed Windows Media Player In Flex?

Aug 24, 2010

I have a mp4 file which is to be used in an application. Currently i am in the stage of figuring out the technology to be used for this job. I am familiar with flex and am hoping that i be able to use it for the application. But i can not figure out a way to play the file in flex. I have been able to play the file only in windows media player and that required the installation of three codecs : Mp4Audio.ax, Mp4Video.ax, Mp4Src.ax.

As i see it, it will be very convenient if i could embed a windows media player plugin in flex or i could specify the audio and video codecs in the flash player

ActionScript 2.0 :: Popups Being Blocked In IE?

Dec 8, 2008

I am using AS2.0 and SWFObject to integrate an audio player into a website. I have built a button that launches the player into a seperate window so that people can surf the site and listen to the music simultaneously. There is only one problem!! In IE the window is being block by the browser's inbuilt popup blocker. I have tested other sites that feature similar functionality and popups are not blocked!?

Has anyone experienced this issue before and do you have a workaround?

Links In Flash Site Pop Up Blocked?

Oct 7, 2009

I have a website located at: tonywilford.com made entirely of flash. However when I click on any outside link like on my contact page , it detects it as a pop up and doesn't open it.I know I can disable the pop up blocker but how can I make it not do this for the everyday ordinary non technical visitor?What I was trying to do (which may caused this) is when a link was clicked it would open in another tab instead of opening in the same window. If possible, I'd still like to achieve this.

CS3 GetURL Is Blocked By Flash Player

Dec 27, 2009

I'm making a sort of portfolio movie using flash which I intended to use for directing to different locations in the Web concerning me; my already uploaded flash movies, sites, creations, projects, etc.

It quickly seems all my work till now might have been for nought: when I click on a link in my published flash so far, it displays this message:

"Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation.

The following local application:

(swf path)

has tried to communicate with this Internet-enabled location:

(link target)

To let this application communicate with the Internet, click Settings. You must restart the application after changing your settings."

As you can probably understand, I cannot expect visitors to my site to manually configure their player for every single of the tens of links I have in my movie. Is there any way I can convince Flash Player that my links are not potentially unsafe?? I am using Flash CS3 and AS2.

Blocked Flash Content On Website?

Dreamweaver and my FTP program. I've just uploaded my website, but none of the Flash content is able to be viewed online. It works perfectly when viewed via Dreamweaver, but is just not visible on the Net, as if something is blocking it. All other Flash websites, apart from mine are working fine.

There is no way to make the ad component work in another way.

ActionScript 3.0 :: MouseEvent.CLICK Blocked By Child Bitmap?

Jul 4, 2010

If anyone has come across this problem or is educated enough so that you may come up with a working solution then please post here. Okay so at the moment I have 2 swfs. One swf is the main swf, which contains a class called Avatar. This class extends Sprite and has 1 child, which is a bitmap image.
 
What I do is load the child swf into the main swf, create an object of the Avatar class and pass the Avatar object down to the child swf. The child swf takes this object and adds it to a Sprite object as one of it's children. Then I add an event listener for MouseEvent.CLICK to the Sprite object (the one containing the Avatar sprite) that is in the child swf.
 
Now when I go to click the Avatar bitmap inside the Sprite inside the child swf. The mouse click event does not fire.
