I'm using ActionScript to listen for key presses and route to a method to handle them. It works fine in Flash Player Debugger 10.1, but does not work with the SWF in a browser. I've tried it with all sorts of keys: letters, numbers, etc. But I can't get it to work at all in the browser. I'm using Safari 5.1 and Firefox 3.6.8 on the Mac. Here's my relevant code:

I want to use the keycode for WASD, but only W and D work. i tested RDFG aswel, but only D and G works there.keycodes i used for wasd:[code]
View 5 RepliesI wrote an flash actionscript 3.0 movie that needs to use netconnection and netstream for streaming. When I test the movie through flash ide the movie connects alright.But when I insert the swf in html and view from firefox, chrome or other browser NetConnection.connect() does not work. Movie sort of hangs at the moment NetConnection.connect is called(). The function assigned to NetStatusEvent is not called and no command after that moment is carried out.It only occurs when viewed through web browser but when it is tested in flash ide it works alright.
View 1 RepliesI need to use flash as3 to create a game, and I have tried to use 3 layer to load my swf. My game is in the third layer, and the first and second layers are just a preloader script.My problem is when the game is loaded onto the stage of first layer my KeyboardEvent function is not work until I press the stage.I have try to use Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE to solve it, but I also get a same error.this is my code for preloader
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("game.swf");
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loadProgress);[code]....................
i have this code:
Code:
stage.focus=this;
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, handleKeyDown);
function handleKeyDown(e:KeyboardEvent) {
trace("click");
[code]...
when i play it in flasplayer go well...if i put the swf in a html page not respond to key event...
In this script, I'm moving a sprite on the stage up and down using the keyboard. Works fine, except that there is a long delay after the SWF file has loaded until the key presses are registered and the sprite moves.
It takes about 5 seconds after I open the SWF file before the movement works.
[Code].....
I put together a rather simple interactive .swf file using graphical "buttons" to navigate through different screens. Afterwards, I was told to add in two keyboard events as well: one to navigate to the next screen and one to restart the .swf file.
Using the keyboard to navigate the way I explained above works fine--that is, until I use the mouse to click on a button. Once I do that, the keyboard events no longer work. For example, if I start off the .swf file by pressing the Space bar on the keyboard to navigate to another page, it works fine. If I then press the "R" key on the keyboard to restart the .swf file, that works fine as well.
However, the first time I click on one of the buttons on the stage to navigate to another screen, the keyboard events no longer work. I can press the Space bar, and nothing. I can press the "R" key to restart the .swf file, and nothing. It's as if using a mouse event disabled the keyboard events or made the .swf file stop "listening" for keyboard events. The only way I can get the keyboard events to work again is by clicking somewhere on the stage and THEN pressing the appropriate keyboard key. I'm guessing that's because I put the focus back on the stage, maybe?? (again, not an expert here)
My code is ridiculously simple, and it's on the first frame:
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, onKey);
function onKey(event:KeyboardEvent):void
{
[Code]....
Is there anything I need to do to this to make sure the .swf file is always "listening" and registering the keyboard events?
flash menu i have create for my web site it works 100% in microsoft explorer but in fire fox or safari i have a problem.

View 1 RepliesI am having a problem. I found the actionscript 2 code to open a browser window, but it is not working in Safari, or Firefox. I found an old action script 1 file version 5 for the flash player that works just fine, but I am using 8 and actionscript 2 so that doesn't work for me.

View 1 RepliesThere is a wide known issue with printing of Flash content in Firefox and Chrome browsers.So,one solution was created by "AnyCharts".But it seems not to work.I also tried to implement the latest version of the component that is now hosted and Google Code.I did exactly as the manual prescribes but it still doesn't work.AnyChart guys say on their blog page that something should be done with CSS as well ,but as you can see from the manual at Flash-Print-Fix home page ,there is no mention about CSS setup. My code works like this:

I am trying to implement a Flash YouTube video player on this page. [code]...
The only problem is that the player does not show up. Scroll down the page and right below Secondary Headline there is a large white space - this is where the player is.
I have tried it in isolation here and it works fine, but something is messing it up on the destination page.
Without too many details, I have a flash project that has a MOUSE_OVER function that works perfectly when I test the movie within flash and even when I play the swf in flash player. However, when open it in firefox, my mouse over doesn't work properly. Instead of it execution the function on mouse over it executes on mouse down.
Are there any known differences between a web browser and flash player that may cause this to happen.
For some reason the performance of the application is slower in Internet Explorer 8. I've tried several tweaks but the performance difference still remains. The 'core' of the application, placing brushes on the canvas, is driven by a Timer event:
Code:
_myTimer = new Timer(1, totalSections);
_myTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, goPaint, false, 0, true);
_myTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER_COMPLETE, distributeLevels, false, 0, true);
_myTimer.start();
I allready tried the ENTER_FRAME option, this just slows both versions down (IE and FireFox).I mean Timer and slow performance in Internet Explorer? Or have other ideas to improve performance?
SWFUpload I am using SWFUpload to upload files to a database (Windows XP) over https. Everything works as expected in IE (7 and 8), but using my Firefox 3.3.15 it fails without error message. Using the upload mechanism using http works fine!I found this thread using google. They describe that installing the CAs certificate as trusted issuer would help. Unfortunatly it did not (it was a certificate issued by a CaCert authority).
It works on the machine of my colleague who uses Firefox 3.3.15, but he cannot recall that he did anything special to make it work. I had a look at other machines using Firefox and none of them were able to upload a file to the database.I red that SWFUpload uses flash and that flash might use other certificates than Firefox itself. Does anyone know anything about it?
EDIT: This is the javascript code for the object creation:
// Create the SWFUpload Object
var swfupload_object = new SWFUpload({
upload_url: "[% cgi_path %]/mdb_bulk_import.pl",
file_post_name: 'upload_file',

View 5 RepliesI have a Flash Media Streaming Server 4.0 running for more than a year now. I protect the access to my server through the "allowedHTMLdomains.txt and allowedSWFdomains.txt feature" (amongst other things...). We noticed that with Firefox 10.0.2 (last version) and Flash Player 11.1.102.62 (last version) our customers can't connect anymore. In the admin console we can read things like: Authentication failed for pageurl: [URL]

I recently started using Mac OS X for a flex/actionscript project and having a problem with flash player debugger plugin for the browsers:
OSX: 10.6.3 Browsers I tried: firefox, safari and chrome Flashplayer debug "Flash Player 10 Plugin content debugger (Intel-based Macs)
Whenever I open a page containing a flash content, my browser crashes due to flash player plugin's crash.
I checked the version of my flash player debug plugin with [URL]
and as the version checker is written in flash, my browser crashes a few seconds later.
I am using version 10,0,42,2 (debug edition: yes)
This is what I see in the crash log:

I am trying to generate an <object> tag only embed code and cannot get Firefox to pass Flash along the FlashVars values. This seems to work everyplace else that I've tried it but fails in Firefox. Here is a sample of the embed that I'm using:

note that the Flash experience does show up in Firefox but when I do traces and actually run the application this fails to read the values.
I have a slight problem when publishing to Flash Player 7 but works perfectly in Flash Player 6, below is the code:[code]In short this creates a list where the values are kept in SharedObject.I need to use a WebService so I require Flash Player 7, as I said this works as expected in Flash Player 6, so maybe someone may know a pitfall or two when migrating code form 6 to 7?
View 1 RepliesI know I can look at plugins and their version under Firefox, but how can I tell if I'm running the debug version of the Flash Player?
View 2 RepliesThere frequently tend to be posts "My SWF works in FireFox but not Internet Explorer! I'm wondering, is there REALLY ever any truth to these and not just silly mistakes?
Is there any real difference between the Flash Player in Internet Explorer and FireFox?
Aren't they the same, and all the browser is doing is relaying those commands to the library/executable already on the computer? The reason I'm guessing this is because when you install Flash Player, it works for all installed browsers, and you don't have to install it to specific browsers, right? Or?

The problem is that when I am moving left and up, "pink"-a "blue"-s and "green"-d work. When I am moving down and right, none work. When I am moving right and up, only "pink"-s and "blue"-d work. I have tried changing the order of my code but it does not work, What am I missing?
I'm creating an Entry Page slideshow here with Flash Cs3 and AS2: [URL] I'd like to be able to click on the whole slideshow (or the "Enter Site" text) to go to another page on the site, which I'm calling "[URL]." I've read various tutorials all day and tried many things, but couldn't seem to apply any "on release" action to the "Enter Site" text that would work. I even created an invisible button (putting a keyframe on just the HIT state and deleting it from the UP state), named the instance "invbutton3", and then typed in this action on the first frame and inserted a keyframe at the end of the show:

I have a file upload script to upload pictures to a server. It has been working fine in all browsers but when I upgraded the flash player to 10.1 in firefox 3.6.6 yesterday it stop working.I retested with another computer and as soon as i installed the flash player 10.1 it stopped working.I did some debbuging and noticed that the error return from the FileReference listener is I/O error.It doesnt make sense because the file is in the server and it works fine in all other browsers.I changed allowScriptAccess from "samedoamin" to "always" without luck. it works perfect in other flash player versions.the HTML that embeds the movie:

I have an app that uploads pictures to the server. When I upgraded Firefox 3.6.6 FP to flash player 10.1 the uploaded stopped working. It still works perfect in other browsers. It works fine in Firefox 3.6.6 but different Flash player version. I did some debugging and noticed that it works fine when I run it in my development environment (Localhost). In the production server it returns I/o Exception but it doesnt make sense because it works for other players and also the file is there. I changed the permissions on the file to 777, the allowScriptAccess to always, tried to make the php path absolute also and no luck. The php file does not use sessions or cookies.
