View 1 RepliesI'm using LoadVars to retrieve some data from a table using php. When I use the app from within my Flash environment I am able to retrieve the info, but once I post the swf to the website nothing happens. I"m posting to the same remote page. I don't think LoadVars is even firing since the trace in my else clause is not firing.
var reserved = new LoadVars();
reserved.load("

to have an embedded .swf on a website that can play music located on the users computer? in other words, can a .swf have a dialog box that asks the user to select an .mp3 on their own computer? what i am hoping for is to be able to have users play their music and have the .swf act as a visualizer.
View 2 RepliesFlash Movie that works using Firefox and Safari on my (iMac) desktop, but not after I upload to my website.
I started with an flv video, imported it into an fla document along with a playback skin then published it creating an html file and two swf files. I've checked the html file, and it looks fine. The flv file is only 17MB and I've uploaded all 5 files to my site on:

but all I seem to get is the control skin's "sending data" pole turning.The movie never arrives. I can get much bigger mpeg and wmv movies up on my screen very quickly.
I'm running Snow Leopard on my Mac (OX 10.6.6). I've tried using different videos but nothing seems to work.
Here's the relevant html generated by Flash

I made an intro animation for a website. Packaged it up into a movie clip, selected "Export for ActionScript", dragged it into my timeline, and gave it an instance name (myIntro_mc).
This is not an exported swf... it only exists in my library as a symbol (and what ever folder of classes it goes to when you export for action script).
The intro plays some animation, has a button to continue to the site, plays some more animation and then stops.
The movie clip is in its own layer and has 4 frames of the main timeline.
If I don't tell the main timeline to stop in frame 1, the intro never shows up... playback goes directly to frame 5 (which is the home page).
If I put a stop(); in the first frame the intro plays and stops and the main timeline never resumes.
I can't sort out how to tell the movie clip to play the parent timeline when it reaches the end... nor can I figure out how to wait in the main timeline for the intro to finish playing before resuming the main timeline.
I've been gnawing at this an embarrassing amount of time and have tried all sorts of bad code in both the main timeline and in the child movie clip.
I'm creating a flash intro and i was wonder how i would set it up so that the intro only plays the first time the viewer views the website. so that the next time they visit it takes them directly to the main page. this is dealing with cookies b/c once they clear their cookies it would play again.
View 5 RepliesI have built a couple of sites in Flash, however, I have a problem with a current site I'm working on. My client wants various photos to fade out in a "checkerboard" fashion, which I am doing via its own movie clip and adding in the appropriate area on the main timeline. However, when I add a blank keyframe on the following page to add a new movie clip (with the next set of pictures, the timeline starts playing through the entire website, not recognizing stop actions or frame labels.

View 1 RepliesThe navigation buttons in my .fla file are set to the font, Arial MT in Bold. It displays no problem on my desktop computer. However, when I view the website on my laptops, the font changes to what looks to be something like Times New Roman. The same thing happens with my "Read More" button text. It's also originally in Arial MT Bold. On my desktop it appears fine but on my 2 laptops it appears to be in Times New Roman. This is more of an issue because I have these buttons underlined. When viewing in my laptops, these underlines appear to be too long. If I shorten it, it'll probably appear to be too short when I view on my desktop. How can I get the font to be one consistent font for all computers?
View 3 RepliesI want my movie to loop. Would prefer an If/Else loop so that the movie plays a certain number of times then plays the opening of a screen then stops. This is a simple 4 screen ad I am doing for a school project. Can't get it to work. I tried containing my code in the proper loop syntax, didn't work. Then wrapping the loop in a function and calling that with a timer event, didn't work. My final solution was to call my whole movie in a timer event set to play once. Then calling the entire movie again in a second timer event set to play 20 times and set to start at an interval when the first movie ended. This did work but each time the movie plays thru function calls drop off making the movie degrade.

Just out of curiosity, we were talking in our Calc class about Taylor Polynomials, and the teacher suggested maybe that is how a calculator/computer takes the sine of a number. Does any one know where I can go and see how the computer finds the sine of a number?
BTW I checked the Math class included in flash and it says its a "intrinsic class Math" and this is the function that defines sin = "static function sin(value:Number):Number;" What does that mean?

View 1 RepliesI made a swf that is heavy on graphics, it works great if the computer is good. But for the older, slower computers I'm hoping there is as3 code that can detect if the playback rate or quality is being compromsed due to processor overload?

I've created my own Workspace definition in Flash CS4 with all the windows arranged just the way I like them. How can I copy this Workspace definition to another computer so I can have the same environment to work in? I've looked in the C:Program Files (x86)AdobeAdobe Flash CS4CommonConfigurationWorkspace folder and all I see are files for the default Workspace definitions (Classic.xml, Designer.xml etc.); unfortunately, I don't see a file for my new definition. Was hoping I could just find an xml file for my new definition and copy it another computer.
