I am trying to make a link from a SWF open an html page and trigger an event to bring up another SWF within a Shadowbox javascript application. My code is as follows: truth is the instance of the button.

I have a an unobtrusive flash video looping in the background of a website, it is not essential to navigation - it is purely cosmetic.The flash video loops every 30 seconds.As this video is on all pages, it jumps back to the start when a new page is loaded.Is there an actionscript / javascript way to get it to remember the position it got to on the old page so it can start there on the new page?I do know that this can be accomplished by loading the flash movie in a frame as well as by having the subsequent pages load the contents in AJAX but I was hoping not to go down this route.I have seen other people ask the question and allude to the solution but they only posted that they got it to work without saying how.
View 1 RepliesI have a flash file and am using google's suggested method for as2 event tracking like so:
getURL("javascript:pageTracker._trackEvent('Refferal', 'Join', 'Benefits for HCAs/APs');");
The problem is that instead of silently communicating, pageTracker._trackEvent() appears to return a boolean value. Every time I click the button which this is located on I leave the page I was on and end up on a page that just contains the word "true".how to get around this? It makes the flash unusable.
I have a flash map included in my site usually like <object... and so on. I have seen on some websites that on page load the flash is already active, I mean, on my map you have to first click on it and then start interacting with it. I want to make it on page load already available for interaction, so user when hovers over flash it would already work, so that user doesn't need to click on the map to start interacting with it.

HTML Code:

I am using Google's Audio player to play an MP3 on a webpage. My issue is that I am overlaying an image on top of the the play/pause button. Yet when the image is clicked nothing happens. Here is the code:
<div class="center" style="width: 400px; z-index:1; visibility:hidden;">
<embed wmode="transparent" width="400" height="27"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" flashvars="audioUrl=/sourcefile.mp3"
[Code]....
That did not work. One thing I noticed is if I have visibility:hidden; the flash player will not respoind to any clicks regardless of what is over it. With that said I attempted to overlay the image using <input> without the visibility:hidden; and it still did not work.
I need to get this fixed if at all possible. I am willing to use another flash player that is similar as long as it works correctly and will use an mp3 like above.
I'm currently working on this website (http:uel...) and I created a little gallery. When you press the image it becomes the background of the website. Now this has some problems if the background is white and you look at the other pages again, you can't read the text any more.I would like it to be when you go back to another page, the background changes to it's original one. So basically I'm looking for the page (component?) load event or something alike, but I can't seem to find it.
CreationCompleted doesn't work for this, because when you navigate to it the second time it's already created, this the background doesn't change.I'm setting the background like this:
Main page:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:WindowedApplication xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" [code]....
I also have the problem that the images become stretched, because I can't set the fillmode NOR can I center them,
I'm embedding a flash object in an html page and calling windows.onload to initialize the Flash movie. The problem is that the windows.onload does not wait for the Flash object to completely load. Is there way to make sure that the Flash object has fully loaded?

<head>
<script>
var falshObj = null;
function pageInit() {
thisMovie();

how to do this, but I was wondering if there is a way to do the following without setting up an event listener for each textfield...
I have a bunch of input textfields on the stage (50+).
I want flash to gotoAndStop at frame 5 whenever ANY of the text fields have something typed in them.
Possible to do without setting up 50 event listeners? Is it possible to just set up one event listener that is trigerred when any input field on the stage is changed?
I am trying to build a simple application. The first phase is selecting to upload a file from the user desktop or from the site's gallery.
The question is if the user chose to upload from the gallery, say, go to an PHP page gallery, choose a photo and then redirected to the Flash app. How would you trigger the Flash up to know there was an image chosen and it should load it?
Does PHP send a variable or create an XML based on a choice and pass it via Flash variable, or does it need JavaScript to tell Flash that if the Flash var is not empty run this function?
This code works fine in my IDE but when I test it in a browser, the Event.COMPLETE function appears to trigger twice. I put a throw error command in to make it show up in Flash debug Player and the error gets thrown twice. I've even done a string search through the code to see if I've added more than one listener but no luck.
ActionScript Code:
private function downloadCompleteHandler(event:Event):void {
_s.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, downloadCompleteHandler); // Clean up
_s.removeEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, preloaderBar); // Clean up

My code is contained in a movie clip that plays an animation on roll over and reverses the animation on roll off. The reverse uses a timer that backs up a frame on the each time event. It works for the most part.
Problem: I tried to use watchTimer.stop(); to end the timer. But the eventListener that tracks timer events keeps triggering which I don't want.
Code:
var watchTimer:Timer = new Timer(30);
this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, foldUp);
this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, foldDown);[code]....
the code below is placed on one frame of the main timeline...it works, but apparently continually triggers the "gotoAndPlay" action over and over again. How can an ENTER_FRAME event be made to play a moive clip such as "staged_kiss_mc" only once?
The playhead on the main timeline rests in this single frame for a while; it would be great if "staged_kiss_mc" were to only play once, when the playhead first enters this frame, rather than apparently repeating continually...is there code to stop this repetition?

I am trying to write a custom class for image loading.
public function imageLoader(url:String, mc:MovieClip):void {
loader = new Loader();
loader.load(new URLRequest(url));
[Code]....
I ll get the events in these listeners in the loadImage class. But i want to trigger a function in the calling class or root or stage, when these loader events are fired.
I'm attempting to use a custom event and cant figure out what I'm doing wrong.The event just doesn't seem to be either triggering or received.I borrowed the code from the internet, but I only know enough about custom events to sort of figure out what the code is doing.I have a movieclip inside of another movieclip.I need to close the child movieclip when a button on the child mc is pressed.I'm attempting to listen for a custom "close button clicked" event on the parent mc.[code]again...the event just never happens.I never see the output of the trace in the parent movieclip.I do see the output of the trace "OK button pressed" from the child movieclip though.
View 1 RepliesI've a MovieClip named "Player" that contains three MovieClips (one on each frame): "Idle", "Walk", and "Attack". Idle and Walk are working as intended�when Player is on the appropriate frame, the animation cycles constantly; however, I am having trouble with my Attack animation.I want the Attack animation to only play through completely one time then throw an event so I can resume either the Idle or Walk animation. Is there an event that fires at the end of a MovieClip's timeline, or is there a better way to do this?
View 5 RepliesI'm struggling to move from AS2 to AS3 and trying to mimic an old AS2 trick. When the playhead hits a frame on my mc's timeline with this code:
_root.gotoAndPlay("3");
the main/root/parent timeline would go to frame 3. Clean, short, simple. How can I do this in AS3?I've tried this code but it didn't work:
this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, proceedNow);
function proceedNow(event:Event){
//parent.nextFrame();
parent.gotoAndPlay("3");

While trying to load a Bitmap onto a SWFLoader the Event.COMPLETE event is not being triggered
mySWFLoader.source = new Bitmap(Bitmap(someEvent.content).bitmapData);
but if I use a URL as source the complete event is triggered:
mySWFLoader.source = "http://example.com/123.jpg";
Is there some kind of restriction while using Bitmap as source?
I have a file that loads in several flvs.At certain points during the flvs, I need to trigger events on other timelines.Right now, I have them set up as listeners using enterFrame to detect playheadTime.This works, but is too hard on the CPU that is running the file.Is there something similar to VideoEvent.COMPLETE that could trigger events at other specific points in the flv?
View 2 Repliesi have some dynamic text fields getting data from XML. I can hilite their links with rendering as html and using css without a problem. What I want to do ise, triggering some events with them in rollover states, such as popping small information windows... I've made a thorough search for asfunction on the net & kirupa, but asfunction triggers on click, which doesn't really help. Another solution i have in mind is detecting what word is cursor on and taking acting through this, and found a .fla file mentioned in forums that does this, but again, it needed to click on the word (it used selection method, therefore textfield needed to be selectable). Yet another approach could be dynamically creating transparent buttons over the links, but i don't have the slightest idea how to get the x & y coordinates of a text string on screen. It's easy to get the location of the text field, but how can we get the exact loc of string in it? It was possible in director as far as i remember, but don't know about flash..

I need to load somehow the html code of a webpage A into a javascript string of another webpage B, on a different host. I know this is impossible to do with javascript alone because of the same origin policy, and I know I could do it loading the page via php on my server and then send results back to the user's client but I wouldn't be able to handle so many requests, so I need it to be done directly by the user's browser. I can use nearly whatever browser scripting language/applet framework common enough to be installed on the majority of my users' computers, like flash and java.On example, what if I use flash or java to load the external html code and then call a javascript callback function providing the source? Could this work?
View 2 RepliesOur testing department found that my flash menu sometimes doesnt work after going back to a page by clicking Back button in browser (Firefox).
It happens rarely and randomly, yet still it happens.
i cant see any pattern in its behavior and any reason in it.

i've tested this in every way i could think of,
it gets ROLL_OVER event, but not CLICK event.
ive also tested it with hasEventListener and it always has. its just not triggering function.
BUT clicking anywhere on page outside flash makes it work again.
Question: whose fault is this? Flash? Drupal? Firefox? God?
UPDATE: it looks like its caused by <param name="wmode" value="transparent"/>.
Firefox seem to have problem with that.

I am trying to learn JavaScript and I am wondering whether JavaScript has a event listener just like ActionScript's ENTER_FRAME. Basically, I want this event listener to listen "all the time" not just wait for any particular instance (mouse click, keyboard event) of event.
View 3 RepliesI have a textfield in flex with a focusOut event on it. I can type in the box and in Firefox and Chrome when I click elsewhere on the page (outside the flash element) the focusOut event will be triggered. However in IE8, the texfield never loses focus when you click elsewhere on the page, outside the flash object. I've tried with focusManager.browserMode set to true and false with no difference (I believe that effects incoming focus anyway).
