How can I install flash player plugin (version 8) in browser without downloading setup or redirecting to macromedia site if flash plugin is not available in browser.
View 1 Repliesin other words, suppose I want to send data, like text, programmatically from a Windows app (such as a browser plugin) to a Flash app running in the browser. Well, conceptually, an example of this might be a Flash instant messenger with a textbox and button "Send"; so let's say I want to be able to programmatically paste the text and press Send or otherwise activate it. That's NOT what I am trying to do here in reality (i.e., no,I am not trying to spam other people's chat rooms or anything)but just an illustration of a similar situation.I can include in it whatever widget or hack that may be necessary.The reason why this problem is arising for me is that AFAIK the SDK that is providing me the data I want cannot be directly accessed from Flash, so I need a way to pipe the data from a regular app into Flash. can I have the Flash app interact with other apps through localhost IP? Or are there draconian restrictions on which server Flash in browser can and cannot interact?

View 1 Repliesi am wondering what is the best and most efficient way to draw shapes in flex.I want to show a map with 3000 rectangles placed after downloading their position in a xml. I would like to zoom this map and to pan it.
I have done it in flash, it is actually a movieClip where I place every rectangle and a mask which let appear the map as a window.it is ressource consuming and it lags.
I would like to know if Flex provide a simple way to draw and place such shapes.
I apologize if this has been covered already, but I'm not sure where to start because I don't know the proper setup for this. I've been making Flash sites for a while and am pretty comfortable with it, including actionscripting, but I have a real estate client that wants to be able to update their site with new roperties themselves. Obviously a simple HTML page would be easiest, but I wanted to find out how this would be done in flash. Most of the examples I see are for linking to xml data tables and the like which doesn't seem to be exactly what I'm looking for. How would I go about making an "area" in flash in which they could load a new picture and a couple paragraphs? Would I have Flash look for a whole html page, or define a picture and paragraph objects that are individually replaced, protecting the formatting/design? Is this possible/a good way to go about it?
View 2 RepliesI am rather new to Flash but have been in software/web development for more than 20 years.I have a project which I have to provide specs on which entails updating over 5000 SWF files from Flash 6 to Flash 9 on about 1000 classroom PCs that do not have internet connectivity.
Currently, I am simply just trying to setup one test machine but I can't seem to find the Flash 9 plugin to download and install. All I seem to find, even with a google search is Flash 10. someone direct me to where I can download the Flash 9 plugin and how to install it on my test machine?
I own Flash CS3 Pro so if there is some way to just copy components from it to the target machine,
For ages we have used the Flash Object in a .NET app for managing the development of eLearning. The embedding is done (I presume) in much the same way that IE embeds flash object (e.g. using a COM object which maps back to Flash10c.ocx)We are testing our application on Windows 7 RC 64-bit edition but the .NET application is unable to instantiate the Flash control, raising a "Class not Registered" error. Although the OS is 64-bit, the .NET app and Flash object are 32-bit and should work together without problems. I have confirmed that the IE browser (32-bit version) on the Windows 7 (x64) does indeed instantiate Flash files OK.

View 1 RepliesIn a small WebView app I wrote, I am able to load YouTube and see the picture the represents a video clip, with the familiar right-pointing arrow that is supposed to start playing the video:ut... when I touch that arrow, nothing happens (the video is NOT played).mWebView.getSettings().setPluginsEnabled(true);So, I searched for more clues about how to make Flash (YouTube) run embedded in my WebView and I found the following hint:I am OK with the requirement for Android 2.2 but what I don't understand is what "install Flash plugin" means: YouTube plays fine in Android's default browser (which is based on WebView AFAIK) and also in the YouTube app that's also installed in my device. Doesn't that mean that the Flash plugin is already installed?

View 1 RepliesUsing LoadVars.send() I insert info into a mysql database.I then click a button and the updated db content is shown in a textfield. Problem is that a HTML file is auto-opened in the browser.
When using LoadVars.sendAndLoad() I can still insert info into the database, but I can NOT update the info in the textfield. For some reason the "old" db content is loaded again.Flash and PHP files are in same folder on server.
I am working on a page the allows the user, once logged in,to upload information and a picture. The picture is saved as his/her username, and if they upload a different picture, the old one is still displayed unless they leave the site and come back 10+ minutes later.I tried the HTML no-cahce headers and they don't even help load a new (up-to-date) version of the main movie.This should have an easy solution, that Adobe should have
addressed if they expect flash to be capable of being a dynamic site with user interactivity.
I have a simple sendAndLoad XML request that works perfectly on 95% of the computers I have used. I have check crosssite stuff and everything i can think of. Its not browser specific ,os specific, or flash version specific. On these computers I can run the same flash file on a standalone player and everything works flawlessly but inside of any browser it makes the request for the XML file and stops right there. After a while like 10 minutes flash gets tired of waiting and returns not found. I can navigate to the xml file via the same browser. Upgrading Flash doesn't help.The only thing consistent is it only happens to windows computers. The requested URL is the complete URL. I have changed this and still the same.IE or Firefox still the same. Version 9 player in both. I have montiored network traffic and see the request made and maybe a response but flash has moved.
