When setting the .location property of an HTML control, it is possible to set it to an invalid URL with no error. How can I determine if the change in location resulted in the loading of some HTML, or if the URL is 404?[code]...

I have created a textArea element but cannot display my HTML content. If I just display regular text it works or if I change the textArea element to a RichEditableText element it works fine. Since this is for a mobile app I would prefer to use the textArea element as recommended by Adobe.Here is the MXML code for the textArea. All I get is the border and no content displayed.
<s:TextArea id="myHelp" editable="false" width="100%" height="100%">
<s:textFlow>

My client has a website that plays YouTube videos. Once a video is finished playing, it will automatically play the next one. This is done by using the YouTube API and swfobject.After some research, I was told that Safari on iPhone does not support flash. This make the current swfobject code not working on the iPhone browser.As workaround, when the user clicked on an embedded player, iPhone will launch the YouTube app.
View 2 RepliesI am working on a Flash movie that has interspersed FLV movies that play. A detect script listens for when the movie is completed and returns to play the main timeline.These FLV videos occupy one frame at a time. Then the presentation continues. Then another FLV...etc like that.The movie controls work fine until I pass the first video frame. Then the stop/play/mute volume slider stop working.I want to resolve the conflict. Or blank keyframe the movie script to "hop" over these movie frames. But then I get duplicate script errors because I cannot "unload" the scripts to add them back after the blank keyframe.Anyway, I cannot see what is conflicting. The detect script is only 2 lines. Here are the two scripts:
1. Detect script in movie frame[code
2. Main Movie timeline controller script:[code]
I have this small project HERE. Right now it barely does anything but make the character move.
I move the character by using <s:Move>. Now as you can see on the link to my project page, it moves to where you point the mouse and click. I want to be able to stop the character from moving if it hits another object or in this case, the "tree". Is there a script in AS3 that will let me detect collisions or controls that are overlapping each other?
What's the best way to add a flash detect to a html page. I have a html page with a flash element in a DIV. (but without prober flash detect). Now i'm confused about the generated code after publishing my flash file.
What part of code should I put in my html file, or is it possible to link to a 'universal js file'?
I have a flash file that will be running on my website, however, if, when a user is using the flash file, there is an update? (i.e. I update the swf and upload the new one to my site) I want the current flash file to say, "A new update is ready, refresh your page" .... I planned on doing this by having an html page that just has a number on it, when you first open the flash file it will find out what number is on that page, then, every 30 seconds or so it will check that page again, and, if that number changes (because I edited the html page to have a new number on it.) then it will know that I've also uploaded a new version of the swf file to the server and it will alert the user to refresh the page... So how do I check what number is on a blank html page with only 1 number in it via actionscript 2.0? Something about XML? Or is there just a simple function?
View 3 RepliesI have a Flash movie that is embedded in an HTML page that has a DIV in a layer over the top of the movie. The Flash movie scrolls based on the mouse position over the movie. The client wants the scrolling to stop when the mouse is over the DIV. I've tried using the mouseLeave event, but that is not triggered by the DIV.
Is there a way that the Flash movie can detect when the mouse is over the DIV?[code]...
Can we detect html tags in the input text field?
View 6 RepliesI am wondering if it is possible to detect what kind of text is assigned to a texfield. There are 2 options to choose from .htmlText and .text
For example: mytextfield.htmlText = "hello <b>world</b>. This is some html text, but the text could also contain none html tags"
mytextfield.text ="Hello world, This is some plane textcontent"
Someting like trace(mytextfield.html) ?
Can Flash control the visibility of a html layer <div>? Example: I am building an eyeblaster style banner and would like flash to turn off the visibility of the div containing this banner, either when they click close or the movie reaches a specific frame on the timeline.
View 2 RepliesI've done this a long time ago and for the life of me cannot remember how(even found my old post here, where I said fscommand did the trick, but I never wrote exactly how I did it).I have two text links in HTML on my webpage. I have a small flash movie on the same page.
I want to have the flash movie jump to a specific frame when one of these HTML text links is clicked. And to another frame when the other is clicked.I did it before with the fscommand, but I can't remember which project it was for so I can't look at my old code.
I want to use a proxy on the HTML Control found in Adobe AIR.I have tried looking at the AS3 docs on Adobe but honestly, it didn't explain the usage clearly to me and looking at Adobe's example, I can't seem to make out anything off of it.

I have a question for any seasoned Action scripters. Here's my problem, I have two flash files embedded in different parts of an HTML page and I want one flash file to play the other when it gets done. I would assume that I need to use PHP or javascript to talk with the HTML file that would send the other flash file a command which it was "listening" for. I really don't know however.

View 2 Replies1. I have a flash movie embedded in an html page. When the user clicks on a button in the movie it should open the new in the SAME or CURRENT window NOT in a new tab (leaving that window open).
Here's the code..getURL("imageTest.html", _self);
2. I can't get my block navigation to show the CURRENT link.I want the current link or page on the navigation bar to be a different color than the other links.
I'm able to get the font to change color but I can't get the background or "block color" to change color.
I am using the flex HTML component and I would like to clear the history of the control when it is taken off screen, so that when it comes back on again the history is reset.
The only thing I can think of at the moment is to set the HTML control to a new HTML control, although this is a bit of a pain.
I have a BorderContainer that has an HTML element inside of it. The HTML has a control that isn't contained in a form.
It is possible to retrive text from the input element at a given moment?
I'm having trouble firing or capturing the results of an event firing.
Here's the current code...
<s:Panel id="instructionsPanel" left="0" right="0" top="0" bottom="0" title="Register">
<mx:HTML id="htmlViewer" left="10" right="10" top="0" bottom="10"
[Code].....
What's happening is that the user fills out a form in the HTML Viewer, then when they click the submit button I want to be notified of the page change.
If they land on URL A, then they'll be shown one message. If they land on URL B, they'll be shown another.
However, the event isn't firing.
I've also tried COMPLETE and HTML_DOM_INITIALIZE.
I have a HTML control in Flex that succefully loads a page. Is there someway that i can extract or get all the images from that HTML control and show them?

View 1 RepliesIn a CS3/As3 project I have xml files with html content loaded in a texfiled inside a mc. In some cases I have swf files embedded with img tag in the xml. The problem is that when a swf is loaded this way It keeps 'living', playing with sounds in the background when other xml files and swf are loaded in the texfiled. Then, every time it is loaded, a new instance of the swf is created and played.I have found out you can refer to the loader object with getImageReference method giving an id to img tag and, for example, adding an Event.COMPLETE listener to the loader. But I don't know how to access to the loaded swf to unload it or at least stop it (mc_name.texfiled_name.swf_id doesn't seem to work in AS3)Does anybody know if it is possible?
View 7 RepliesI am using an embedded flash movie in my web page. I would like to show some alerts on the page when the movie has played for x seconds, pause the movie while the user views and dismisses the alert and start playing the movie again after that (or the user can press the play button, not important). The important parts being - the app being able to find out if x secs worth of movie has played, pausing the movie then and showing an alert. Is this possible using a php/javascript code within the web page? Or will I have to do this within the flash movie itself?

I would like to place a scrollbar in the HTML page that is in the iFrame. I also would like to remove or hide the original scrollbar from the iFrame (without using the scrolling="no" since this stops scrolling all together). Is any of this possible? Am I able to control HTML scroll with a Flash scrollbar? Will I need to use javascript?
I understand my way around both actionscript, html, CSS, and some javascript....if any of this is a possiblitiy could you at least point me in the right direction? Would this be better if I built .PNGs and created Divs to build the scroll bar on the HTML page?
