Actionscript 3.0 :: Preloader Not Working Online?
Aug 30, 2009
I have been on a hunt for weeks, on and off, but I can't seem to find a solution, or even a direction to look in. Long story short, I am using CS4, AS3, and I can not get any type of preloader to work when accessing it online. I have made my own, tried every example file I could find, but not one of them or the possible solutions I found for them will work.
The example files I have used all work from my computer, both by accessing the swf in a browser, or testing within Flash itself, but once I upload them they have all hit one problem or another. I have had the preloader not show up at all, and show immediately but not count down, depending on the type of preloader it is. The only amount of narrowing down I have been able to do is that I can make a preloading frame, but as soon as that frame tries to find out the % loaded of the overall movie, it stops working properly.At the moment I am simply using:
Code: Select alladdEventListener('enterFrame', preloader);
function preloader (e:Event){
if (framesLoaded == totalFrames){[code]...
I put a movieclip on the frame to show that something is happening, but I have not been able to successfully use code to allow for a loading bar, text %, etc.

I just discovered a strange thing : I have a preloader in all my swfs. All work great online and when I test the swf or the preview in html exepted 1 : the first swf to be loaded called homepage.Here is the schema of the site : HTML page is linked ( with a enter btn)to the 1st swf called Homepage. No preloader gets visible and so, the swf takes a long time to load after clicking the enter button of the html page.Note : the html page is visible until the swf is totally loaded....

I have just very recently downloaded a trail version of Adobe Flash CS5 onto my laptop. The version of windows is Windows XP, and the program itself is running as well as it should.
I went to youtube to see if there were any video tutorials that could help me get started with the program. Unfortunately, right before a video will play, the browser will say there was an error, and close, and then re-try to open the page.
This problem has never happned before I installed Flash, so I can only assume it had something to do with it. Everything else on my system is running smoothly, I even checked every file and processor twice for any signs of adware that I may have picked up accidently.

So, I have a simple registration form with a datagrid underneath. When you register, your name shows up in the datagrid. It's a list of people who has registered.This all works just like it should when tested locally. Online though, you can only register, but the datagrid won't load the names. It's empty, even though the database has been updated.

I've created a game in Flash and I'm using Matrix3D and Vector3D. It works perfectly locally, but as soon as I put it on a server, the graphics don't render and I only see a thin line where a sphere should be.
I've done all the imports, but nothing seems to get it working!

So, here is the question. I have a small flash application that sends some variables to a php script (via POST), and that php script sends them to a mySQL database.
This works fine when I'm testing my flash offline, I go to phpmyadmin, and the registry is done. When I upload the swf to a online html, this stops working. It no longer creates another registry in the database. I have no ideia why this happens.
I read a bit about it and found out about cross domain policy, and thought it might be the problem. Thus I made a small .xml file and uploaded it to both servers (the one the swf is on, and the one that has the database), and its still not working.

take a look at the attached files? I've got two preloaders that I've made from the same template, but I can't get the progress to show. It simply shows a quick glimpse of the finished image and then goes to frame two.

my preloader isn't actually working,trying to load the page on a PC with quite slow internet... The story is following - my preloader animation plays, but only after the whole movie is loaded, cuz I noticed a huge delay before the preloader was actually played... And then I used that flash speed testing thing (sorry, but I don't know how it's called) and it proved my theory... That's the code on 1-st frame, where preloader is:
Actionscript Code:
stop();var loaded:Number = getBytesLoaded();var total:Number = getBytesTotal();var percent:Number = Math.floor((loaded*100)/total);if (loaded == total){gotoAndPlay (2);}else{ _preloader.gotoAndPlay(percent); //loadBar.percentage.text = percent;}[code].....

So, I'm working on a presentation/site that houses multiple sections being loaded in as individual swfs. I have each section shoot to a preloader frame first that is set (with PreloadAssetManager) to preload multiple FLVs and the SWF itself.If I select a new section while the current one is loading, it does the correct process of switching sections and shooting back to the preloader, but then the preloader itself just stops working completely. If I try to access any section, it just sits at a blank preloader. of thing.

I export all my stage assets to frame 1, so the external preloader FLA is the approach I've been using for a while to show the nice percentage before the real SWF is loaded. I've just finished with a project and I'm getting errors when the file is done loading.The file works fine as long as it's not it a Loader component (stand-alone SWF), but as soon as I try to get it in the preloader it gives me a ton of errors.
The only major thing I did differently with this project is that a number of classes have their own individual Event.ENTER_FRAME listeners and that *I'm making a lot of stage calls* from various classes to get locations and what-not. I'm thinking it might have something to do with the latter, since I used the stage width/height for a lot of the positioning (stage.stageWidth/2, stage.stageHeight/2, etc).

I've got a strange problem with my new flash website. I've been able to code a preloader for loading in different .swfs into my main .swf file. This works fine locally and even when I simulate the download in Flash. But when I've uploaded it to my website the preloader no longer works. Basicly the swf file does load into the current swf but without the loading bar and percentage reading.
stop();
_root.homecontent.loadshowreel._xscale = 1;
_root.homecontent.onEnterFrame = function() {

I am working on a website and I would like it to have a preloader.This website is scripted using Flash CS3 and AS2.There are two scenes, one is "preloader" the other is "tsh".roblem is, the swf file does not display while it loads, then after it loads it displays the preloader for a second and jumps right into the next scene. How can I make it load the preloader scene first, then preload the "tsh" scene? - I have put this code into "preloader"Frame 1:
Code:
var loaded:Number = Math.round ((_root.getBytesLoaded()/_root.getBytesTotal())*100);
mc_slider._x = -500 + (loaded*5);

I'm working on a glorified slideshow, it has a music track that is 3+ minutes long, pretty nice graphics, and transitions. I started builing in Flash and am halfway done... it looks great too !
Problem is, when I'm testing the preloader with the download profiler set to DSL - it crawls and at 1% and on, the soundtrack starts to play... by the time the download is at 42% its at least a minute into the soundtrack and it's in and out, coming on then cutting out but not starting over. Needless to say, this is not okay! I know it's a huge file. SHould I maybe export it as an mov and put it in a FLV player?

I've made a basic RSS news feed widget with a preloader. When I test the preloader in Flash it works fine, counting to 100% and bringing in the widget proper at the end. This happens both if I test the movie outright or simulate the download.
But now I've embedded the preloader in an HTML file using swfobject 2.2, and the browser will only display the first frame of the preloader and go no further, ie it 'freezes' at 0%. When I open the actual preloader .swf file, it's the same - it just stops at 0% even though it worked fine previously when
I exported it from its .fla file.Weird thing is, if I bypass the preloader and embed the widget file in my HTML, it works fine. This is for an assignment however, and I need to build a preloader as part of the criteria.All files (ie the widget .fla and .swf, the html and the preloader .fla and .swf) are in the same folder. Someone advised me when I made a bitmap in the preloader into a movie clip to uncheck the "export in frame 1" box, so I did this. It didn't work. Then someone else advised me to make sure the textbox containing the percentage count was a classic textbox with dynamic text. I did, and it's still not working.

I've implemented an internal preloader in my project but it's not working properly. I use Simulate Download but the preloader only shows after something like 80% is completed, which sort of destroys the purpose of the whole thing.
import flash.events.ProgressEvent;
stop();
function preloader(progressEvt:ProgressEvent):void{
var totalBytes:Number = progressEvt.bytesTotal;
var loadedBytes:Number = progressEvt.bytesLoaded;
