Actionscript 2.0 :: Using Swfaddress Which Creates A Page Title In The Browser?
Apr 8, 2009
I'm using swfaddress which creates a page title in the browser based on what page your on in the flash site. The title comes from the name of a frame label. For example i have a frame label called "About Us" I've capitalised it and put a space between the words because this text is what's used in the page title on the browser and i want it to look good and to be able to be read properly.When the page is refreshed it comes up as: "about%20us" as the page title on the browser.
I was wondering if anyone knew of any code that would load a page title when a SWF file was pulled into a browser without any HTML code. Is this possible?
I'm trying to edit a Flash file, that get it's data from and XML file.Now when you click on one of the menu items, the page + page title should change, but somehow the page title remains the same. (at least for the first 3 menu items) But when you go to the last menu item and then back to one of the first 3 menu items, the correct page title is shown.I'm no flash / AS expert, so I can't really find out what the problem is, but it seems like it has something to do with this function
i'm trying to implement the SWFaddress for a site and am having trouble getting the swfobject to work, i think because my site is full browser. i see the swfobject that is included at Asual is a quite a bit lengthier than previous ones. When I try to change the height and width to 100% (below) I get nothing in the browser.
Code: Select all <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
Here is the code that I've got, I'm also using SWFaddress: Code: function whyPageLoad(event:Event):void { var link:URLRequest = new URLRequest("[URL]"); navigateToURL(link, "_self"); }
The swf exists on a page [URL] and the link above [URL] doesn't work/do anything. I tested the swf on a different URL and it loads the page correctly or if I load it into "_blank" it also works. So it seems to be something with the common URL string that is not causing a page reload.
how to change the title at the top of the browser via actionscript? I was thinking you could link to it through javascript in the same page as the swf but I don't know how to do that
I have SWFAddress going for the most part, but the browser's back and forward buttons aren't working properly. When I use the back and forward buttons, it successfully changes the URL but it seems the SWFAddressEvent.Change is not being fired in Flash. Everything I click within the .swf relies on this event and works great, but the browser buttons still won't.
<script language="javascript"> <!-- function changeTitle(t){
[Code]....
The result is - the page title stays the same, there are no errors - but i do get an alert that says "changed! Hello!" So the function is being fired, and the variable is being sent. It just will not change the page title.
If i call the function in javascript - so just under the function add - changeTitle("good") - it works fine, changing the title.
The timeline swf itself (the core of the site) is being loaded into a wrapper swf, as one of the requirements is that this timeline can be used elsewhere, in other projects. This wrapper, however, will have some additional visuals that pertain to a stand-alone version of this timeline. As a result of never knowing exactly where this is going to be used (either a subchapter in another flash website, or as a stand-alone site by itself), I've decided to dump all of the swfAddress code into the wrapper, in a child class of it. To handle the navigation changes, I'm dispatching custom events (from the timeline) with parameters that describe the nav changes, which gets picked up by the parent wrapper, which then calls a function in the swfAddress child class for handling.
Also done in this swfAddress class is the parsing of the URL onChange event (when a browser back button button or history changes the nav, rather than a Flash button). This, too, dispatches an event with info about the parsed URL, which the wrapper is picking up and then calling a function in the timeline's API to make the necessary changes.
In IE, with Flex application embedded, changing page location with JS like that: document.location.href = "#someFragmentIdentifier"; causes change of page title to "#someFragmentIdentifier". I've read that the cause of that was supposed to be integration of Flex application with browser navigation, so I disabled it at the Flex compiler properties screen, however it didn't fix anything.
how to use SWFAddress within MCs? All the tutorials I find seem to use the maintimeline, but I need to know how to make it work within multilevel mc's, dynamicly loaded in. Ive got a working code but this one is static. Everything is working, even when i copy and paste the URL of Testpage 5 for example in the browser. how to create a dynamic way than using the switch statement.
I'm having a problem with the flash publish method and swfaddres.I've included the javascript of the flash pubblication in a new javascript file with the swfaddress in the same page.If i use swfobject for including my flash file in the swf, swfaddress works ok...if i include the swf with the flash method swfaddress doesn't work.Here the link: http:[url]......
is it possible to change the icon and the title in the title bar? are there any opensource or low cost ways (prehaps software with a education licence) to change the apperance of the projector window.. like for example itunes, breaks out of windows xp standard UI
how can i load large image? i used a Zoomify for solve this problem but there are another problem that i don't like to use it. can i do it in as3? like loading image title to title?
I need to sitelock a swf to All of the sitelock solutions I've found only lock the domain that the swf loads from, which means a user can still copy the source code of the page and load the page locally and alter the swf params (since the swf still loads from the same url
I taught myself enough AS2.0 to configure flashpaper within my flash portfolio. I have a bunch of blueprints of site plans, elevations, maps, etc. that I like to keep at full size (24"x36",30"x42", 36"x48", etc.) and it worked great with Flashpaper until I bought a new computer with Vista
I have tried Print2Flash (I don't think they print larger than 24"x36" and even then the resolution is srewed up). I have also used Scribd (all of these large PDF files keep crashing). Are there any other special browsers for these large PDFs? I would like to embed the browser into my flash page, but I also want to control the size and dimensions of the browser within the page. I have seen one or two websites that now have Acrobat Reader 9? resized within the main website window.
I am building a flash site for my own photography business and the site is designed in such a way that it will scale from 1200x720 down, but never up. So on the biggest monitor, the biggest this should get is 1200x720.
I am having an issue where after you resize the page down smaller than the biggest, i the main container of the content "mainStage" is too small, and even after maximizing the window, it is still stuck on a small size.
-- if you refresh the page with the window at ANY size, it works PERFECTLY.
-- if you resize the browser without refreshing the page, you will reproduce my issue.
I have uploaded the page here to be seen. [URL]
-- Here is the source for this. [URL]
i really want to get this resizing dynamically to work before i work on the rest of the page.
I have a SWF thats over 1000 pixels in height which is embedded in a HTML page, so some people will have to scroll down, and i want to put a 'Go to top' button in the bottom of the SWF which once clicked on makes the browser go to the top of the page. For AS2 've seen ActionScript Code: getURL("javascript:window.scroll(newXPos,newYPos)" ) But not sure how to convert that to AS3?
I have a simple button in a swf file that I am trying to get to load a php page into the browser. Simple right?? Well my button wants to open a new window and go to the actual website. I know I am suppose to load variables somewhere but I don't know where.
The as for my button is....................... on (release) { loadVariables("&email=$s_email","_parent","POST"); getURL("jobseekeroptions.php",0,"POST"); }
Here is the php code that I am trying to communicate with........... <?php include ("../config/config.inc"); // start session and bring in session variables session_start(); [Code] .....
how could I get a Flash File to call a Javascript Function / Send a Variable back to a browser which Javascript could read?Basically working on something where as, currently at any moment during the web page is open Flash receives a variable.. Needs to process that, then call a Javascript Function in the page or if this can't be done, sends a variable back to the page which javascript will listen for every 500ms or something like this...
how can I make it so that my flash html page centers with the browser, when you expand the browser.. I have no problem with the index page, but its when going to my flash html page that I get this uneven amount of white space on the right side. For example, my index page.. when you resize the browser the page also centers itself when you expand.. but when on the flash html page you see the off-centered amount of space.
- When you click on a link in the bottom menu bar of my site, the new page opens at the bottom of that page (instead of the top).
As you can see (from the action script at the bottom of this post ), it's basically just turning on and off the visibility of the pages. So when you click on the Ethnography button, it makes that page visible and the page that you were on, not visible.
So when the button being clicked (the Ethnography button) makes the Ethnography page visible, the page location stays in the same place (aka - the bottom of the page). Is there a quick action script statement that I can add to the EventListener for the button that will tell it to open the new page at the top of the page?
I need to open a pdf file (I do have it's URL) in a new page in flex in the current browser. I suppose it is not difficult, but I have no idea where to start from.
