Flash - Insert Without JavaScript In The Most Compatible But Valid Way?
Apr 28, 2010
I'm looking for a way to embed Flash into a XHTML Transitional page that does not rely on enabled JavaScript, which validates and that works across all major Browsers including IE6. So far I'm using this solution which seems to work just fine:[URL]...However, when this method is used in an RSS Feed it seems that Feedburner and Google Reader at least (maybe other feed readers, too) strip the whole object tags and only leave the alternative content.
I am looking for a flash mp3 player that will work within the Opera-based browser on the Wii. The player needs to be javascript enabled (support methods like play, stop etc.) The mp3 tracklist will be built dynamically using ajax on the same page as the player so it must trigger an event when a track finishes playing (or at least provide functionality of some kind to indicate that it's time to start the next track). Does anyone know of such a player?
Most JavaScript code is also syntactically valid ActionScript 3.0 code. However, there are some exceptions which leads me to my question:
Which constructs/features in JavaScript are syntactically invalid in ActionScript 3.0? Please provide concrete examples of JavaScript code (basic JavaScript code without DOM API usage) that is NOT valid ActionScript 3.0 code.
I need to execute some javascript string code from flash swf file using actionscript 3. I read that it could be done by passing the javascript code to the parent html document , using externalinterface.call function. Then I assume it will be faster if I can declare functions in the javascript code in the HTML document in the first use of externalinterface.call funtion ; if flash code calls the javascript code repeatedly. So let me ask you how to do that. For details , any javascript to be loaded is unknown in design time and I can not prepare a javascript file to be loaded.
For my wishlist site, I would like to propose widgets to my users in order to publish their wishlist on their blog or personal website. The idea is to propose a few lines of code to my users that they only need to copy/paste to insert the widget displaying their wishlist. What is the best way to create/develop a widget ?
OK i am using Flash cs4 and i am using crappy windows vista, and i am using my wacom tablet and when i use the brush tool i dont see the pressure sensitive tab which is making my lines uneven etc., do i need to reinstall flash.When i use flash on my other laptop it works does flash not like vista?
I mistitled the thread because I thought the problem was with the version of flash player, but when I ran my swf locally everything worked fine, so I now know that it's a problem created by making the swf remote. Perhaps an admin could change it to "bitmapdata.draw() doesn't work remotely" if they read this.[URL] My swf works fine when I run it locally, but not when I run it from my server!? When images from flickr are loaded into my swf on [URL], flash doesn't want to bitmapdata.draw(mc) the mc with the image (for the reflection), but this problem is non-existent locally. Everything is identical, same SWF, same browser.
Do I have to publish it in Actionscript 2 and select Flash Player 6 under publish settings, if so would I have to rewrite any actionscript (simply a URL link). If so, how do you make a hyperlink in AS2? Can this still work with Flash Player 9 (or the most recent version). Or is none of this correct? I really don't know
What makes a camera compatible with flash? I have a camera I purchased from IDS Imaging and it shows up in my camera list in as3 with print out the array made from Camera.names. But when I go to use it, it just doesn't show up. I do have a lens on it, and it can see it working when I used the IDS software provided for testing. I've also been able to make it work in c#, but I want to use it for a flash app I'm developing.
I'd like to have the swf get as big as possible for each user without requiring scrolling. Of course it would stick to a certain ratio, currently I'm using 2:1 but that could be changed (maybe I should use 16:9 since it is the standard widescreen ratio).
I am only using Actionscript 3 for code and MXMLC for compiling.
I recently uploaded my website graphicdesignnz.co.nz onto the server and noticed that the external swfs were not being loaded into the site� first I thought I had a linkage problem but then my friend tested the site on Opera and it worked fine!
I have a very complex Flash application (think Photoshop in Flash).
There is a lot of image manipulation, and all is working well with the exception of one bug.
The application has an undo/redo feature that sometimes throws an error. There is way too much code to paste here, but the issue revolves around this line of [code]...
My flex app is running in Flash Player 11, and when my client use Microsft Pinyin to input Chinese, the text property of textinput and textarea will get wrong chars that miss some characters, and the validators does not work
What types of input data devices are compatible with Flash? I know with a serial input device it doesn't directly translate into Flash so I need a 3rd party program like Zinc to interpret the data from an attached device. What about USB? Parallel port
I'm trying to have a flash video, with fallback to the html5 video element for those browsers which don't support flash, such as iPhone. I'd also like to have valid html5. The issue I see is that in html5, object doesn't support the classid attribute anymore, but this would be required for a user to get flash if they don't have it but want it.
It seems my options are to accept invalid html5 but not have the flash work properly, or have the classid and not have valid html5.
i want to check in Adobe AIR if given regex is valid. I'm looking for somtehing similar like here: How to check if a given Regex is valid?
I dont want to compare regex and text-value - i jus want to check if this regex is valid. If someone type invalid regex - for example: "x{5,-3}" or "(((^^$$$)//)" or something like this i just need to communicate to him that this regular expression is not valid - its not proper regular expression.
Is it possible to ensure valid dates within flash without using the Date components?I am making a form where the user defines both their date of birth and a reservation dateSadly, I have been told that my database spits nuts and bolts if you give it an invalid date. Have tryed the Date component. It works well for reservations. But when it comes to Date of Birth it wouldn't work cause scrolling 20 odd years month by month would be too painful for a user.
I have being thinking to create a website for music uploading and downloading!I have thought a lot and had been able to create it! But i'am stuck with this fear that windows media player would not be able to support with other browsers like SAFARI!
Is there a clean and efficient way to import documents in a flash presentation?I have a big number of doc documents to import in a flash presentation and i'm wondering what's the best way to attach them. I've worked passing them to HTML before, but the doc to HTML conversion is messy, ugly and doesn't output valid HTML code, besides, it's a chore to clean the embed CSS style the conversion leaves inside the code. is there a library that allow to use a more portable format? if not, is there a clean way to convert a doc file to valid html code?
We have training made in Flash and text are populated from XML files. Now our client want to make training compatible to one of the screen reading software "Window-eyes".We have tried out different options but it is not working.We have made the course compatible to "Jaws" but not able to make it compatible to "Window-eye".....
I have a web site that displays a column of flash videos. The page is w3c-valid. The problem is that the page loads very slowly and sometimes crashes my web browser. Until the page is fully loaded, the videos are slow to respond and play. Is there a way to make these videos load their preview images only? What should I do to speed the page up? The videos are 360x264.
I'm creating a flash application that will post images to a url for saving to disk/display later. I was wondering what are some suggested strategies for making this secure enough so that the upload is verified as coming from the application and not just some random form post. Is it reliable enough to check referring location realizing that I don't need bulletproof security, or perhaps setting authentication headers is a better strategy even though it seems unreliable from what I have read. The application and the server script will reside on the same domain and is in java - is there a way to check for a 'session' or something like that?
Another thought I had was some sort of simple hashed key type system, I could hard-code a key into the flash application and pass something to the server based on that - the server would also know this key and be able to verify if the value passed was based on that? The app is a public app, so authenticating users is not an option. After more research I am thinking about using a hard coded salt key on both ends, then sending an MD5 hash of the base64 encoded image bytearray+salt to be matched on the server side.
