I am working in Flash cs3. I am having problems with mozilla related to contextMenu.
Using contextMenu, i removed all BuiltInItems. Its working fine in IE.
when i am viewing the same html file in mozilla, "Show Redraw Regions" option is still visible when i am right clicking on browser. In IE, its fine.
How to remove this option in Mozilla.
I've got a small action-script chart, that's meant to be live updating, and also be able to support more than 10000 points of data. The way it's currently set up it doesn't need to redraw the whole chart if the new line we wish to add doesn't extend that chart's boundaries. Yet it does, the redraw regions show the whole chart as being redrawn as opposed to the single line i need to add. When the chart gets a new piece of data from the javascript it does the following.(some stuff has been stripped for clarity.[code] Is there any better way to do that, that won't redraw the whole screen? Is my coding pattern wrong for this type of update?
View 1 RepliesI've been making a flash animation for a client - the dimensions of the stage are 2,000px wide, 800px tall. They want a graphic in the background and a snow effect in the foreground.
The code I have written uses TweenMax to move a snowflake that has been dynamically loaded from the library on to the stage using attachMovie. When the clip leaves the stage, it is deleted and a new clip is created at the top of the stage.
I expect flash to redraw the background that the flakes pass over, but flash seems to also be redrawing space between the flakes - as if they were one movieclip - even though they are separate instances.
I have in my page a movie that i call with :
<object width="500" height="405"><param value="http://www.youtube.com/v/_wKFwii6LF0&hl=fr_FR&fs=1&color1=0x2b405b&color2=0x6b8ab6&border=1" name="movie"></object>
In Chrome it is displayed, in IE and Mozilla, there is an error.How can i debug.(For info, this is the link to the real page :[URL]At the bottom:
Chrome : plays the video
IE: shows a placeholder with error
Mozilla: shows nothing...
width 100% for divs, table not working on mozilla and ie. can anybody share their experience while working to achieve this. I wanted to place swf to occupy full web page

View 1 RepliesI never worked with movie files before and I'm having problems to play a f4v file from a html file.
Inside flash, when I do a ctrl+enter, the video shows and plays just fine.
When building the .html file to play it all, only my presentation and movie skin will show up but the movie won't load.
Even if I do a file > publish the video won't show up or play. Everything I have on timeline is working just fine (and again, even the videoskin is showing up).
Now, do I have to change anything inside publish settings or do I need to try something different with html?
ps: here's the part inside html code where I insert the swf:
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="740" height="500" id="main" align="middle">
<param name="movie" value="main.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />

I have my swf files which are getting called in browser when user opens its corresponding page. To ensure my swf is not used by user for his other purposes, i had to strict it to view from HTML page which has a variable. Same variable is passed from swf to this HTML.
if both variables does match then only swf starts preloading. this works fine for first time. But when user open the same page second time, he is only able to view preloader which does not progress further.
When i delete my temp file then user is again able to view the swf only once.
1. what is reason the swf from temp file cannot access variable of its HTML
2. am I doing it wrongly?
3. do i need to clear cache everytime or their is another method to do it?
I've got a flash file (compiling to Air) with a HTMLLoader object in it. The HTMLLoader object loads the web page I link it to correctly. The page is an intranet page within my company's domain.What I would like to do is to take the HTML/text in the HTMLLoader component and convert it to a string so that I can list it out in a textArea. I want to parse the text to grab information like names and phone numbers etc. I'm sure I'm just missing something obvious.
View 2 RepliesI finished my first as3 project that wasn't Hello World and I wanted to send it to a friend. So I put together an .HTML document to load the .swf file but when I open it as a page the game is larger than the displayed area even though my project is 640X480 and the HTML is set to display that (the .swf displays correctly when opened with the stand alone viewer). I also went into the bin/index.html file in my project and edited the height and width from "100%" to "640" and "480" respectively. I have tried adjusting and changing every parameter and value that I could find to try and fix this issue.

I tried using 'loadvars', but it didn't helped me as it doesn't return string data. Can somebody help me in this so that I can load co-ordinates from text file and redraw the image.
View 1 RepliesI create a movie on imovie. I take it to Flash(CS3) and publish it as an swf file I then install that file in Dreamweaver. All is good I save and preview it locally. the file's root folder is images and same remotely I upload all including the HTML page and when I view the page, the place where the file is is blank.
I have uploaded this many times and it just wont work.
I am designing a website using the combination of Dreamweaver with some flash swf files inserted. The page template is actually a very long vertical jpeg that will be imported at the end of my flash swf file. It is a very vertically long file so when the view gets to the page, they will be able to scroll down seeing only white the whole 2 seconds of animation before the page fades into view.
I am going to learn how to use action scripts to allow the viewer to to scroll up and down within that swf file that is imput in a 1row 1 column table in dreamweaver. Does this make any sense to anyone? The file is vertically long so it stretches the table all the way down when viewing in a web browser. I need to know how to lock the finalized physical view of the swf file. Then use action scripts to scroll down and up the length inside of the window, yet keeping the outer actual pixel size locked.
I'm using Flash CS5 and am currently working on an animation/advertisement as part of my final exam in Applied Art. This is a relatively large file consisting of internally animated Graphics and Movie Clips. When playing it in the .SWF player it seems to play fine with no extreme lag accept for a single second at the beginning but when exported to a .mov file it plays extremely slowly causing the frame rate to decrease considerably.I need to upload this onto my youtube channel when it is done as the link needs to be sent to the examiner. All this may have something to do with the fact the .mov file, although unfinished, already weighs 75.6MB at 30 seconds of work.

LOVE stack overflow!I am working on the same site and the other day I was on a computer and the uploader script was not working (uploadify), I was frustrated and looked through the code and everything was fine, worked on all other computers, then I decided to check if flash was installed and it wasnt.

I am having a nightmare using CSS to style HTML within a dynamic textfield in my flash doc. From what i now understand after much trial and error and reading online, CSS doesn't even work properly in flash even for the tags that it does understand (which are few and far between anyway). For some reason my layout is getting completely screwed up in certain scenarios (predominantly when there are images present too) when i hover over links (which are styled in an external CSS file). If i remove the external CSS styling (which only contains the following simple code):
a:link {text-decoration: none;}
a:active {text-decoration: none;}
a:visited {text-decoration: none;}[code]....
Then everything works fine (but no links are underlined as standard or on hover). Does anyone know of any way to style the links without using an external CSS file (all i want to do is have no underline as standard and then underline them on hover). As this is from user input into a text editor I cannot place these links manually on the page in flash as they could be anywhere, I need a way of parsing the HTML and then displaying it accordingly.
I am trying to write a flash app that will allow a user to select various regions of an image, similar to that of the selection tool in photoshop where a square region can be stretched and selected.
Would anyone have any ideas or tips for me that could get me going in the right direction? I have been researching for tools to help me write this but haven't been able to find anything useful..

I have a .png image of all 44 US presidents, I'm trying to figure out how I could break it apart so that each president can be clicked on. I'm a fairly experienced actionscript programmer, have done some game development work in the developer role but never in the design/UI role, thus I'm not great (or even good!) at some of the beginner stuff regarding UI. I was thinking I could use the lasso tool to select an area, then somehow make that selection into a grapic or movie clip symbol, but I can't seem to get that to work and I'm wasting a lot of time experimenting!
