Flash8 :: XML Works, But Not In HTML
Jan 27, 2010
I have created a program that pulls large amounts of data from an XML file. The program works absolutely perfect if I test it in Flash or open it in IE. The problem I have run into is that when I put the program into a webpage using the following code (neither one works), it no longer connects to the XML file. Am I missing something in the code?
PHP Code:
<object width="880" height="800">
<param name="complete_bikes" value="flash/complete_bikes.swf" />
<embed src="flash/complete_bikes.swf" width="880" height="800">
</embed>

I made a very simple loader, it's only a textbox with a percent loaded displayed.
It works perfectly when I use Test Movie in the Flash IDE but when I upload the .swf to my webserver, I get a blank grey box until the entire game is loaded, then it starts the game.
Is there any common mistakes one could make that would lead to this behaviour?
-- Detailed information -- Flash 8 game has 2 scenes. Loader, and MainGame Loader scene has the following code in frame 1:
Code:
stop();
onEnterFrame = function()
{
[Code].....
frame 2 has all my dynamically loaded movieclips placed on the stage (since I can't use 'export to frame 1' or that breaks the loader) frame 3 has a bunch of mp3's the game uses (same reason)
MainGame Scene has one frame that has actionscript code that does everything by code alone, loading movieclips and sounds dynamically.
It's that simple, and the loading works perfectly with various bandwidth settings using Test Movie, but once loaded from a website, the loader fails to appear at all, instead you are greeted to a grey box until the game is fully downloaded.

How would i make hitTest work better with a rotating object(AS2). Becase i have a circle and it if gets near the rotating object (actually pretty far away) it starts the script,(new x and y)
I think thats the rotation script, becuase i took a break for like 4 days becuase it was irritating.

I have a function ("advance_slideshow()") that ticks a slide show up by one, then it loops back at the end. It works when called from the key listener I set up for debugging. However it does not work when called from setInterval. I added a trace to the function to confirm that it was being called, which it is; it just doesn't work when called via the interval.
Code:

How is this done and will it be blocked by popup blockers. edit: the html page i want to link to is in the same folder as the flash site.

I'm using a Loader to load an external image. And when I'm in flash and test the movie it works perfectly, but as soon as I publish it (creating a .html in the same folder, not uploading it online) it says that there's something wrong with the URL - still it works when I test the movie in flash! This is very irritating, because I have no idea what's causing this. What's even more strange is that I have this class inside my movie, that uses the exact same loader method - only it's used inside a class - and it WORKS published.
Here's the code:
Code:
imageLoader = new Loader();
antalBildObjekt += 1;
imageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR,

I made this XML slideshow which I uploaded to my webserver. It works like a charm when I call the .swf file, but when I call the .html, it fails to load the photos and descriptions. It's almost as if it can't 'reach' the XML-file. Locally, both the .swf and the .html file work fine. I'm using a variable in the url (like [URL] to pass data to the XML, but I don't see why that wouldn't work on the html file...

I have a Flash widget that is reading from at XML and loading images into a viewer movie_clip, setting the current client from a FlashVar that corresponds to an XML item.The widget works perfectly when I use the code in an HTML file. (I'm using SWFObject to handle the Flash object.)But when the exact same code is in PHP (and this is happening both on my client's server and through MAMP on my localhost), many of the loaders are returning NULL objects.
Code:
... (this is a fragment of my XML loaded handler) ...
// load images

Note: I rarely join forums or post threads, however, given the living hell i went through to figure this problem out I thought i would go ahead and post this for all others having my problem (in hope that you find this link and it solves your problem). Aim: using frames, I want to create a flash menu in the left frame, the buttons in the left frame should open up the target page into the (main) right frame. [in other words a normal frame based website that has a flash menu as the navigation for the site] Problem: When using getURL to open the page in the frame i.e. on (release) {

I'm publishing to Flash 8 Player and even though I can load one movie into another within Flash, when I publish the HTML all I can see is the container SWF - the loaded SWF is invisible. I've tried this with more than one loader movie and the result is the same. Here's my HTML for Flash:
Code:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

I've got my swf which plays fine when opened in a browser - it's a container called 'country' that's coded to load the different clips (clip1.swf, clip2.swf, etc.) - but when placing it into an HTML page it won't load the clips and I'm thinking it's because of some actionscript error.
[URL]
Scripts are all loaded on the server in the /Scripts/ folder Below is the ActionScript from the country.swf container that loads the clips. what I'm doing wrong to get it to load on the HTML page?
function _playClip(fileName)
{
var clipName = fileName.substring(fileName.lastIndexOf("/") + 1, fileName.indexOf(".")) + "_mc";
if (_root[clipName] == undefined)

I have a scrollbar and it works as a swf locally. It works in the html file too UNTIL I add too much text. Then the dragger "sticks" so it sort of works, but works really poorly. I'm not sure why adding too much text would cause the scroller / dragger to have problems, but it is.

would this be considered a bug in my code (AS3 and Tweener) or a problem with the SWF and its interaction with HTML?When I test the SWF in Flash, there's no breaking it.I can't break it at all works exactly like it's suppose to.When I embed it in Flash, it breaks in an odd way.I have two buttons, left and right. When the buttons are clicked, images on stage move in the direction they're clicked.When embedded, if I click a button really fast, the images start tripping over each other. Strange thing is, it's only to the left button and not the right, but the code is exactly the same for the right & left movement. If I click the buttons slowly everything works as expected.All of this while again everything works great in Flash itself. No errors.So, at the very least I'm trying to find out if this would be considered a but with my code or a problem with the browsers and the Flash player.

I have tried numerous attempts at converting flash files to HTML5 with Swiffy -- and they all work great in a browser running locally, but when I put the HTML file that is exported on a server (I tried two separate ones, just in-case it was some server configuration) they do not run, it gives a blank white screen.
I tried saving the file down to Flash 5 export, and changed settings and they work locally but not when placed on a server. I tried converting several flash files all with different animations, and I get the same results -- it works locally but not on a server.

I have developed a rolling credits style movieclip in Flash using Actionscript 2. Text is loaded from an XML file and parsed into a dynamic textfield. This text includes hyperlinks to webpages defined by a url node in the xml so Flash can add the appropriate a href to the dynamic text field and make the link clickable.
In my first attempts to do this the textfield stayed still and all the links worked fine both testing locally and when I run it in a browser on my website.Then I wanted to make things move ... which I achieved easily enough and tested locally (from within Flash Professional) and the links remained clickable, a browser window opened and the webpage i was expecting to see opened... great
However, when I export the swf, upload it and run it from my website suddenly the links are not working. So I tried to test the movie in a browser from Flash Pro - same problem, it must be something to do with Flash Player and the moving dynamic textfield.
a couple of observations - the cursor will change to a hand icon when over the links as you would expect, and if I right click on the link and click open in a new window the link works ok, just not when I left click. If I stop the scrolling then the links become clickable again, it is only when the textfield is moving... actually its not technically scrolling, im moving the whole textfield.

I have a movie clip (with instance name rectangle_mc) on the stage. Within this movie clip there are two separation animations on the timeline. The ROLL_OVER animation starts on frame "over" and the MOUSE_OUT animation starts on frame "off." If I roll over the movie clip, the initial animation plays, and when I mouse out the other animation plays to restore it to it's initial state. However, once the rollover animation has played once, it will not play again when I roll over it again, but for some reason the MOUSE_OUT plays every time.

hopefully this is possible:
-1 large html (home.html) file houses 2 html files (aaa.html and bbb.html)
-aaa.html consists of 1 swf button
-bbb.html is empty
question: is it possible to click on the button in aaa.html and have the action occur in bbb.html? (for example, clicking the button in aaa.html will load a swf in bbb.html)
