Flash :: Unable To Load On Desktop (works On The Web)?
Aug 18, 2009
Experience with Flash: very very little (very) Version: CS4 Operating system: XP Pro. I was given an FLV file to display on the web. I imported the file into flash and exported it as an html file.
The movie worked great online, but then I was asked to save a copy of the movie on a CD to send it to a client - I saved all the files in a folder. I tested it on my computer and I was able to view the movie, but when the client loaded the html page, all they saw was a bar (that has the volume & play buttons) and a green line that scrolls across it. Here's what it looks like
Some people can load the html file and view the movie and others cannot (on their desktop). On some computers I tried updating the flash player (I removed the existing one first), but it still did not work.
As much as I'd like to be, I am not a Flash developer - I just use it to the extent that I must (the nature of my job) Did I provide enough information for someone to be able to tell what the issue is and how to resolve it?

I have a Flash file that calls com.plaidfox.MainClass as it's document class (com/plaidfox/MainClass.as). This class has the following code:
ActionScript Code:
package com.plaidfox {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
[Code].....
This code works perfectly the way I want it to. However, I am having a very difficult time splitting this code up. What I want to do is take the function PlantGrass and place it in another action script file [URL] to help organize my functions and classes. I tried putting the PlantGrass function in the second file, but I can never get it to work.

I have an issue with a Flash applet that I've written; it's an MP3 player that is supposed to load an MP3 file from a web address.
When I run the SWF on my local computer, it works like a charm. However, when I put it on a webpage, it does not load the MP3 file. (I guess that's what I get for not testing it that way beforehand.) I've double-checked permissions and it seems that everything is as it should be.
I know that AS3 has some cross-domain policies, but I'm loading the MP3 file from the same domain. I understand that Flash has sandbox properties, but I would expect that a file in the same domain shouldn't be a problem. I've heard of people having problems with SWFs before, but not regular media files.
If possible, I'd like find a solution that doesn't require rewriting the code, as I have a release version of the SWF on my site currently. (Rewriting won't be a problem, but I have to wait until the end of the day to do it, and the SWF is on display now.)
Edit: I had three friends test this, and it worked for them. However, it still didn't work for me. I'm at home now, and I'm testing - my applet loads an MP3 in Firefox, but not in Chrome. (Oddly, the friends who tested were using Chrome, which loaded it with no issues.) At work, my applet would not load an MP3 in Chrome or Firefox.

I created a simple Flash app that shows a menu on the side with 2 movie choices. Each movie choice is supposed to play a different movie. The whole thing works just fine on my local machine but when I upload to the test server, the movies never start. Near as I can tell the SWF loads and functions fine but the movies dont work... constant loading bar. Of course, I want them to stream in a YouTube-like fashion. I've fought with this for some time, tried .FLV files directly in DW (no joy there either) so I'm stuck. If I replace the movies with images, the SWF functions just fine. Just can't seem to do the movies.

I am trying to write a small flash app which will load and display images provided as a query. My flash app works fine when I provide the image path directly in the browser address bar, but it is not working when I do the same using html. Here is the direct link to the flash app: [URL]
Here is the link to the html with which I am trying to invoke the app. [URL]
Here the html code snippet invoking the swf file.
Code: Select all<!-- saved from url=(0013)about:internet -->
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
AC_FL_RunContent(
'codebase', 'http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash
[Code]....
I know my app is getting invoked and it appears to work fine when I hardcode the image url into the flash app. But the query method just does not seem to be working!

When testing the code inside flash or the SWFplayer it works but online inside the html page it dosent complete.

}
All the varibles load just fine but when the SWF is inside the html page it dosnt work.

Here's the site: [URL] From feedback I've gotten, it appears that under certain circumstances the first image in a set of images does not load properly, although I haven't seen it myself. I'm told this happens only in Firefox. And I believe only Flash player 8. Works fine with FF and Flash player 9, or IE with 8 or 9 I believe.

I'm trying to load an assortment of random old flash works to a main swf, to just grab bits and pieces from their libraries at runtime.the embedded code of the old SWFs is unimportant and subsequently throws misc errors when i load them in. So I'd just like to disable any external actionscript and really just load an SWF's assets for use.

I am making rest calls with a urlload.load(urlRquest).
also
urlRequest.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
urlRequest.contentType = "application/xml";
When I make the calls within the Flash IDE, I get HTTPStatusEvent.status = 400 (or whatever) when an error occurs. And the IOErrorEvent.data contains xml (or sometimes a string).
However, when I run the swf in a browser (Firefox Mac or PC), the HTTPStatusEvent.status = 0, and the IOErrorEvent.data is empty. (Interestingly in Safari Mac, I do get the 400 status, but still no data.)

I have a map application I've built using Flash CS4 and ActionScript 3 .as files. It's working fine on my local machine. I'm trying to build a preloader for it. My usual way of doing that is to create a shell .swf file which exists just to load the main movie and show the user preloading progress. Unfortunately, whenever I try to load in a movie that uses external .as files, stuff breaks. I'm assuming that it has to do with the LoaderContext and ApplicationDomain, but I've tried every ApplicationDomain option, and I always get the same errors.
In my map application, I've got a constructor function called Imap() that simply calls an init() function which then sets everything in motion. As I said, when I run the map app, things run smoothly. When I load it into my loader swf, I get (the functions trace out their names as they begin to run):
Imap()
init()
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at com.[domain].imap::Imap/init()

I have a flash file which loads a movie clip on the click of a menu item.Now I am trying to add some dynamic data (xml) within this movie clip - In short I do have a dynamic tet box, and can access it as follows:
_level0.pages1.page.forumText.text
The problem is how and where do I load my XML. This is my code to load the xml data I tried to add it in the Frame for the movie clip and it came back with the following error :
**Error** Symbol=pages1, layer=Layer 3, frame=3:Line 21: Statement must appear within on/onClipEvent handler
headlineXML.load("FlashFile.xml");

I am having trouble loading external .swf files. I use the following code for my loader:
ActionScript Code:
package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
[Code].....
The issue is that the progress reaches 100% but the other file never shows. I also know the progress check is redundant and that the complete event should do the same, but that was one of my attempts at debugging.
The code I gave is a chop-up of the hours-load of tutorials I have been reading, and is just meant to be a test file for me to work with loading external flash files.

My gallery is set up to load from an XML file and it works great. My problem is that the program only loads the first gallery. I can load either gallery 1 or gallery 2, but when I try to switch galleries, the current gallery vanishes and nothing reappears. according to the trace function, the thumbnails are being generated again, but nothing is showing up again.
I think it may be the container_mc that needs to be removed and re-declared but nothing seems to work. I've I've had to remove a bit of code related to background graphics to meet the max length req of the forums but otherwise it is all there. apologies for the messy code:
