I am trying to send some information to a javascript function on the same html page as the swf file is in. I used the tutorial here on Kirupa but for same way it doesnt work.
ExternalInterface.call("fillForm('"+ l.x, l.y +"')");
ExternalInterface.call("fillForm", l.x, l.y);
These are the variations I tried.
i want to call a javascript function from within an embeded swf file in a html page and i'm using the ExternalInterface class. i know this function must be defined in a <script> tag in the html page. however, i want to have all my javascript code in an external file, but it doesn't work. my trial file just can't find the function, although i have my external js file linked in the header.

I am trying to send a function to my SWF file via a HTML file, and every browser works fine except for Internet Explorer.The test file is supposed to animate the graph when you mouse over the word click, and come to a halt upon mousing off of it.Here is the example URL:[URL]
*** begin ***
<script type="text/javascript"> function sendToActionScript(str) { document["accelachart"].sendToActionScript(str); }</script>
<a href = "#" onmouseover="sendToActionScript('fast')" onmouseout="sendToActionScript('slow')">click</a>

Like I said before, it works on all browsers I tested (Chrome, FireFox, Safari) except for IE (7 or 8).
I'm loading from my main page an external js file, with a function.
I have a flash file in the main page invoking the javascript function.
Everything worked very well until when the javascript code was in the main file, but when I moved javascript to an external file the function seems not called anymore.
So... there is no way to move the javascript code to an external file ? Or any other solution ?

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 need to find a way to detect keystrokes when the flash file is not selected and send that information to an .swf file. The file would be stored locally (not on the internet).
View 3 RepliesI'm using AlivePDF in a project, and this is actually the first time I've used it. I've gotten it to work just fine except for when I send the PDF file to a server. The problem is the save() function makes a few assumptions:
1. it assumes I don't need to send any other information along with the PDF file.
2. It assumes I want to pop open another page.
3. It assumes that Flash doesn't need to know what's happened to the file after it was sent.
What I want to do is send the PDF file along with some other data with a URLRequest, and then get the response back from the server, and depending on the response move on. AlivePDF seems to have this "one size fits all" function for sending the PDF to the server. has anyone dealt with this before? Any resources I can look at? I've been all over Google trying to find answers, but I'm kind of at a loss.
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.
I got a dwg file converted into swf file. Now I want this swf file to embed in html page. No issue with that. The tricky part for me is to let the user select the entites of the file such as line/circle as one might select in autocad. After entity selection the swf file (by any means) pass the selected entity information back to the html page ( to the javascript function).

View 2 RepliesI 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 ?

View 4 RepliesIm trying to send variables from my HTML page to flash, in order to control the location of movie clips. This is what I have.
HTML PAGE
PHP Code:
<param name="movie" value="navi.swf?sectionheader=charts">
*I have also added the "?sectionheader=charts" to the EMBED line.
SWF/FLA
sectionheader._x = 10;
sectionheader._y = 290;
*This is set on the first frame.
The theory is that flash will read the variable and come up with something like:
charts._x = 10;
charts._y = 290;

I need to be able to send a bytearray object to a javascript function or a java method, but I was wondering if I could do it using XMLHTTPRequest.
import asfiles.encoding.JPEGEncoder;import flash.display.Bitmap;import flash.display.BitmapData;import flash.external.[code]...
So I have a video that plays stream from a webcam,I will click a button and take a picture. I encode that picture using JPEGEncoder then I store it in a ByteArray.How do I send that data over to either a javascript function or a java class?I don't want to use the navigateToURL (URLRequest) method because that will redirect my page.Is there a way to send the data to a function while still staying on the same page?For example, make a asynchronous call to a javascript function or java method?
I need to execute some javascript string code from flash swf file using actionscript 3.
I read that it could be done by passing the javascript code to the parent html document , using externalinterface.call function. Then I assume it will be faster if I can declare functions in the javascript code in the HTML document in the first use of externalinterface.call funtion ; if flash code calls the javascript code repeatedly. So let me ask you how to do that. For details , any javascript to be loaded is unknown in design time and I can not prepare a javascript file to be loaded.
I am creating a login page in HTML with Javascript Elements.
Basically I have a login form. and if credentials are wrong I want it to show an alert in HTML which another Javascript manages. Anyway I have setup a test page here As you can see when you input the wrong credentials it will display an alert. But I want it to perform an action in HTML? (This is so hard to describe)
<div class="notification error"> That is the code in HTML which will show that red box you see up the top & I will add text later.
Here's the Login form:
else {
$('.notification-detials')

return true;

I have a sliding, drop down menu sidebar thingy. The user clicks a button and my slick little eye candy flash movie has a secondary navigation list slide down while any buttons underneath slide down as well. Then when you click on another button it slides back up and the new button's secondary nav slides down. nuff said.what I would like to have happen is that when a user clicks on a secondary nav button and a new html page loads, I would like it to appear that the secondary nav slider has stayed down on the newly loaded html page.this means passing some kind of variable to my flash movie so that it can tell which page the user is on and react (go to a particular frame)

View 1 RepliesI am currently using URLLoader to get the source code of a webpage, problem is, I need the source that is is created after its javascript runs (what you would actually see in a browser), not the true source code.
