View 1 RepliesWith the following coding, my button opens the image in the same .swf-movie. How can I get it to open this local picture in an external local browser (or seperate flash)? Depending on the viewers OS and presets, either Windows Gallery or a web-browser etc.. My movie is to small to show the images full-screen, and it's for a CD not web.
My coding so far:
mybutton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mycommand);
function mycommand(event:MouseEvent):void {
var imageLoader = new Loader ();

I'm trying to get an button in flash to open a pop-under window in the browser using JavaScript. So far I have had no success. Both functions are working fine independently but I can't get them to communicate with each other. Please see attached code.
View 1 RepliesI am a bit of a beginner to Flash and found a template online to use for my website. One issue I am having is that an image with a link is opening in the main window and I want it to open in a separate window. I am going to attach the code as it is now. Can someone tell me what I need to add or change to make the url link open in a separate window?
onClipEvent (load) {
imageProperties=_root.getCurrentImageName(0);
loadMovie(_root.url+imageProperties['name'], this.cont.pic);
loadMovie(_root.url+imageProperties['name'], this.cont.pic1);
url=imageProperties['linkToOpen'];
targetWindow = imageProperties['target'];

If you want to see the site and where the issue is, go to: http:[url]... and click on "main page" It is the "web" images that I am talking about. I really need them to open in a separate window when you click on the image. The action code is below:

My contact form works just fine, however, I currently have the target set to "_blank" which is not what I want. Rather than opening the .php file open in a new window, I just want to go to a new frame (labeled "success" or "error")within my flash file (which currently works fine)So, my question is how do I send the form information to my php file WITHOUT having to open a new window outside of my flash
file since I'm sending the user to new frame instead.
FYI: I've already tried removing "_blank" but it still opens the php file in a new browser window.
My code below:
on (release){
var my_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
my_lv.fullName = fullName_txt.text;

1) how do you open a new window if you have thumbnail pics in the flash movie but want the full pic to open up in a new window? Is this Javascript inside flash?
2) How do they do the menu bar here at this site:[URL]
Well what i want to do is a background in an internet source page. You know that ur deskopt background can be a web page right ? well i want to create such a page with dreamweaver which i can do and insert some flash button that i would be able to click on and open my folders such as My Images, My Documents, My computer... not open a file but the folder itself. Ive seen a lot of fscommand and gourl but they dont work cuz one open an internet browser and the other nothing appears. Id'like to know if it is makeable with Flash 8 to click on a button and then my documents appear and even better that you can choose dimmension of the pop-up.If i want to open my documents as an example do i need too have the button and the webpage in my documents?
View 3 RepliesWe're working with a product called ProForm to create online courses that are Flash-based. It's a pretty cool product, created by Rapid Intake and using ActionScript 2 as the basis.
The problem we're seeing is that when we try to use this method to connect directly to Office documents, the links fail to open the documents in Internet Explorer. When using Firefox, they work fine, and soon after clicking the link the user receives a dialog asking if they wish to save or open the document. This is the behavior which we expected in IE, and which one can achieve by holding the CTRL button and clicking the link (and don't ask me how that was figured out, 'cuz I don't know). But when just clicking the link in IE, a browser window briefly pops up, then the thing disappears and nothing else happens - no file opens, no dialog appears, nothing.
I work with 3d animation. Im have a problem with a personal website Im doing, I have a link in a button inside a flash movie to open a new window and play a youtube movie:
on (release) {
var jscommand:String = "window.open('http://www.youtube.com/v/b0L4XLODhAA&hl=en&fs=1&','win','height=344,width=4 25,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes');"; getURL("javascript:" + jscommand + " void(0);");
}
This works fine in Firefox but in IE it doesnt work, I then change the /v/ in the youtube link with /p.swf?video_id= and now I have the window open showing the small youtube thumbnail of my video but once a click play, nothing happens, I check it and is not loading anything.
I'm trying to make it so that when a user inputs the correct word an event happens. It almost works except that the event doesn't fire until the NEXT keystroke. Is there a way to test for the word AFTER the keystroke has become part of WriteInOneText.text, without adding a separate button or anything? Here's the code:

I have a video player that is currently using XML for its video library which is all fine and dandy. Now I have some developers working on a CMS type page in PHP that is going to hopefully pass some sort of information to my player that will let it know where the video is stored on our server. Is there a way to do this without using FMS? If so does anyone have ideas where I can find the information for it.

View 3 RepliesI am having trouble getting even a trivial example of fscommand("exec", "..."); to work. I just need to open a Word .doc from within a flash exe projector. Eventually this needs to be on a cross-platform CD, but I'd be happy to see it work from the desktop of my PC at this point! I've attached a really simple sample.

Been butting my head against the wall on this one. Im making a news app that loads xml data and diplays the data onto 3 seperate textfields. The 3rd textfield has auto size set to true, so that the height of each instance of the attached movie is always going to be different from each other. I need to figure out how to get the height from each instance of the attached movie and use those numbers for the verticle tiling so that they dont run into each other.
heres what I got so far. Its the "duke news" box. If you scroll down in the news box, you will see that the text starts running into each other.

View 1 RepliesIn Flex Air app, how do you open a window behind an active one?
I tried following and i can't seem to get it to work
[Code]...
With this code, I would expect window1 to open behind the main app window and, in 3 seconds, window2 would open behind window1. But if you execute this, window1 will open on top of the main window and window2 will open on top of window1 and the main app will retain focus. This seems like a bug in the Flex. If so is there any workaround for this problem?
I'd like to create one empty Flash movie that is essentially a placeholder for externally loaded content I can change through XML. This content would just be able to randomly load 1 of 3 photos, with a button linking to a website within each of the photos on page load. If the user refreshes the page, a new photo with it's link would appear, but I understand since it's random,having 3 images the same image is likely to reappear, but I can always add additional photos and links.
Does anyone know of a tutorial that might lead me on the correct path to create this? I've found some tuts, but they've been different than my need.
We want to be able to upload over 100+ files (if needed) to a server along with desc + keywords. I see that Flash 8 has the neccessary tools to handle file uploading, but my question is, can we have it act as a Stand alone FTP program so that we can utilize the fastest user upload, or will we be confined to the settings in the server INI settings.IE MAX_UPLOAD_TIME,MAX_FILESIZE, etc. If possible we want to avoid using the HTTP upload as it is noticeably slower. So if we can use flash to utilize user BW to upload, then that would be ideal.
View 1 RepliesOk the fourth page of the website is a portfolio page with 16 thumbnails (4 across 4 down) which opens a larger pic on the same page to the right.
I can't figure out what to change. The first and third thumb down seem to be linked and open the same image. Same with two and two down from that and so on. I want to separate them so each open their own image. If I edit it in PS both thumbs change...
I click several times and well thumb one and the third one down is:
onClipEvent (load) {
i = 1;

I want to launch another app, in a separate window - like Excel or something . I can predict a hard coded path to it - like "c:myappapp.exe".
