ActionScript 3.0 :: Way To Restrict Access To Embedded Swf?
Oct 2, 2009
We're planning on allowing others to embed our custom player swf (which play the projects we produce) on their site/blog/etc with embed code, but want to maintain enough control to blacklist certain sites that use our projects unfairly or in violation of our terms.What's the best way to block certain sites from embedding our swf? We had an idea of attaching a unique ID with each embed code and then having the player make a call to our site to check a list to see if that ID is blocked or not....but that's easy to bypass, and wouldn't it be easier to just dump the blocked sites into an .htaccess of httpd.conf file with some mod_rewrite trickery?
I'd like to gain read only access to the following parameters of embedded Flash videos located on sites that I do not own through my own custom browser extension/add-on:
Time location of playback head (so I can display the current time in the browser extension via HTML5/JavaScript) Frames (so I can make capture them to an image file, save it and display image in browser extension) Original Dimensions in pixels (so I can display the original video dimensions via JS/HTML5 in browser extension)
Is this possible by using Javascript and HTML5 from a browser extension?
Would I have to use something like the SWFObject Javascript API [URL]
I have vod files that need to be restricted to only the IP range of the ISP service. The live streaming can be available to all, how do I restrict vod access in the FMS Interactive Server, is it in the following?Virtual host on Interactive Sever:
[URL]
Would I edit these files for that restriction, how do I put the IP range in format wise?
In a plugin context (a swf loaded by an another swf), is there any way to restrict access to file system and network in the same time to the loaded swf?Compiler option "-use-network=true|false" does not fit because you cannot restrict both file/network.[code]The loaded swf is in user's document folder, outside Air app folder. Currently, the loaded swf is abble to load "c:/Windows/regedit.exe" and I don't want it (neither sending informations on the network).
I have need to restrict user input. TextInput should restrict all special characters and punctuation. Any other characters are allowed. In java there is a regex patter:
I am trying to get an instance of a specific class from an embedded swf, it so happens the class I need is also the Default Application extending Sprite for the swf. I am able to do this successfully if I load the swf however I want to embed it instead.The class I want to load is also extending a custom interface. Here is what I have tried but is not working:
[Embed(source="resources/MySwf.swf")] private var MySwf:Class; private function someFunction() : void
I'm trying to embed an SWF in my ActionScript project (Flash Builder 4.5). I need to have access to variables inside that SWF, but for some reason, embedding it strips it from all scripts.The solution I found on the web was to embed it like this:
ActionScript Code: [Embed(source="sprites.swf", mimeType="application/octet-stream")] private var Sprites:Class;
Have any of you guys attempted to embed a library SWF and access the classes as it was an externally loaded SWF? If so, how is it done? In an effort to make my game into a single SWF, I have no other option than to embed my external library SWF's, the simplest of which is just an SWF full of images in the library. My normal method is this
I have a flash game embedded on Facebook but need access to the flashvars facebook passes to all embedded games. However I am using the mochiads preloader meaning that _root.fb_sig_user is always undefined?How do I get to the variables?stage.loaderInfo.parameters.fb_sig_user
I have to call an ActionScript method via Javascript, but I have a problem accessing the flash object itself. I embed the flash file via the help of swfobject.
Previously, when I use the static publishing approach, I could easily get the flash object by calling these methods:
swfobject.registerObject("flash_object", "9", "expressInstall.swf"); var flash_object = swfobject.getObjectById("flash_object");
For some technical reasons, now I have to use the dynamic publishing approach (using swfobject.embedSWF). But, as mentioned in the documentation, the method getObjectById can only be used if you use static publishing approach.
I'm building a Flex project with a lot of embedded bitmaps and such. The usual method for getting to the bitmaps in Actionscript seems to be to do something like
[Bindable] [Embed(source = '../lib/WhiteFencePost.png')] private static var clsObstacleFencePost : Class; var bitmap : BitmapAsset = new clsObstacleFencePost();
I've already got several dozen of these things, and I can easily see ending up with hundreds of them by the time the project's done. Is there some way that I can avoid creating a Class for every bitmap?
I would like to be able to access all the components of say a Flash image gallery on someone else's site. I want to be able to find the images, image coordinates, action script code, audio files, video, etc. I do not want to manipulate these elements, I just want to view them and their related information.
I've embedded a MovieClip symbol with the [Embed] syntax into my AS3 project, which I'm compiling with the Flex 3 SDK. That MovieClip has instances of other clips within it that are placed on stage with instance names. I can't just access them by instance name like I would if I were compiling with the Flash IDE. How can I reference them?
because it keeps saying that my object is undefined.object undefined error. i am trying to pass values from js to actionscript and then i embedded it. i tried to embed it using embed and object tags only, but the javascript functions are not working. It keeps saying that object is expected.

Here's the code: ActionScript Code: var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoad); loader.load( new URLRequest("info.xml") );
to be loaded by just one .html ??I have one book which was converted page to swf. Each swf will be inside one .html, pag1.html contains pag1.swf, I'd like to avoid the direct url reference to pag1.swf.Any way of detecting the URL of html the swf file is embedded in?
I'm having trouble with the new keyframing model in Flash CS4.Say I have a symbol that starts here, then moves over there, then waits, then moves back over there again, etc. etc.Using the new model, all of these movements seem to be considered the same and single tween.If I apply easing, the easing affects the entire range of keyframes. This doesn't make sense? I may want the symbol to slow down when it gets "there" and have different easing for different movements. Does this make sense?
How do I restrict a mc to a certain area of the stage? I am going to have some buildings on the top of my stage and I don't want my character to be able to walk past the street level.So basically I don't want him to be able to go off the stage or up some to be determined height.
If you drag the map, it moves even beyond the edge of the map so the map eventually gets dragged off the screen. Is there any possible way to stop the map moving any furthur than its boundry?
I know how to use .restrict() to restrict or allow characters in a textfield, but how to I restrict just a double quote? "I tried with the two backslashes but that does not work.My only option seems to be to ALLOW a whole lot of character sets but leave out the double quotes. Is that truly the ONLY way?
