Flex :: Download File And Close New Window / Tab In IE
Oct 29, 2009
I'm getting an anoying problem in IE6.02 when trying to download a file through flex + struts action, the browser opens a new window and doesn't close it after the download has finished.
The flex code is:
navigateToURL(url,"_blank");
The content headers are:
HTTP/1.x 200 OK
Date: Thu, 29 Oct 2009 22:00:44 GMT
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Content-Type: application-download;
charset=UTF-8
Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename=myfile.pdf
X-Powered-By: Servlet/2.4 JSP/2.0
Also, we tried with
Content-Type: application/pdf; charset=UTF-8
How do I close the new opened window automatically? In FF works perfectly.

I am using alivePDF to generate pdfs from my flex application. When I click on the save pdf button on my flex application, a "save as" window pops up which allows me to browse to the location where I want to save the pdf file. Its the same window that pops up when we try to save any file in notepad, word, etc. I want to programatically close this window if the user is idle for a given amount of time. The code that I am using for saving the pdf is as follows.
var file:FileReference = new FileReference();
var genPdf:PDF = new PDF();
genPdf = generatePDF(target, generateXML,str);
file.save(genPdf.save(Method.LOCAL), 'graph.pdf');

I'm making an interactive cd in flash, I'm wondering how I can prompt the user with a way of saving video files (.mp4) to their computers.
Ideally they would click on a 'download video' button and then would be prompted with the usual window allowing them to choose where to save the file and name it.
Is there a way to do this within flash?
I've been using fscommand to launch files, can it be used to save files as well?

I created a Flash application that reads POST data from a form. A user clicks the button, and the data gets posted to the flash app in a new window (_blank). Now takes the data and then spins a wheel to give users a prize. If they don't win a message pops up letting them know they didn't win. If they don't win, clicking the OK button needs to close the browser window.
I've tried a number of solutions and it seems that the only way to get this done is to launch the window with javascript and then use ExternalInterface.call('window.close'); to close the window from within the Flash actionscript (3) because otherwise the window won't close (I've tried just using window.close and window.close() with no luck)
I understand how to launch a new window with javascript, but I don't know how to simultaneously launch and POST data to that window (the Flash application has to have the POST data. Is this the best solution? Is there a way to close a browser window easier than what I'm describing?[URL]

I'm trying to create a pop up window in Flash which also fades the background window to 75% black. When the user closes the pop up window, I'd like for the parent window to un-fade back to normal. Is this possible? I can do the first half of it and make the background window fade to 75% black. The difficult thing is making it fade back to normal when the user closes the pop up window.My thoughts are that I need to attach some code to the browser's built in close window button. It might require some javascript or a fscommand. I'm not sure.

ACTUALLY i just thought of another one so now i have two. sorry. hope you don't mind. i get sidetracked rather easily. before i start, a quick nota bene. i'm a complete newcomer to flash so my questions are very simpleminded. not much of a challenge i'm afraid.
1. can i put a link in my movie that will close the window?
2. can i put a link in my movie that will open a new window of a specific size, and without the menu-buttons of explorer?

I need to close the popup(adobe flex), non modal window if I click on the parent page of the popup. I have to do the out of focus check and then do some validation before close the popup. So what I was thinking that is there any inbuilt focus check event or do we need to create custom event for that?

So I basically have used the fileReference class to allow the user to download a determined file if he wants to.
I use the file.download(URL) function and it works well.
However, the file is downloaded and saved to the hard drive using only the flash player. The browser is not aware of the download, and thus, if I want to show the progress of the download I'd have to make some progress bar myself. I know how to do it, but it would become really tedious and take too much UI space.
Isn't there a damn way in Flash to "send" a determined file to the browser so that it prompts the user to download it? It's an image file, so navigateToURL doesn't cut it since it will just display the image, both if I use a new tab or the current one.

I am building an Adobe Air Mobile application currently targeting Android (and eventually iOS). I'm using Flash Builder 4.6 (which is Flex).I have a requirement to download a zip file from a url, save it to local storage and unzip the contents.There seem to be a few example on how to do a download in Flex/Air, but not many in Flex/Air/Mobile. Additionally, the mix of examples seem to be all over the place with namespace versions, etc. Edit: What I've tried:So, from the examples on the web, the first thing I did was add namespace in Flex declarations: xmlns:net="flash.net.*" Then I added the following component: <net:URLLoader id="urlLoader" /> Then, in the button click event, I called it: urlLoader.load(new URLRequest(downloadUrl)); I get a run time error: Error #2044: Unhandled ioError:. text=Error #2032: Stream Error.

I'd like to have Flex trigger the browser to download a PDF file from a server, but if anything goes wrong with the script that generates the file I want to be able to throw a meaningful error from Flex. Is it at all possible to try to open the URL in Flex first and check the response's HTTP status or Content-Type, then if it's a PDF file and not an error pass it up to the browser to display the "Save File..." dialog?

Does anyone know the syntax for closing a swf window using a button, similar to closing a popup window? I am creating a small game, and am giving the user the option to "play again" or "quit" at the end of the game, so i want the quit button(standard library on(press)) to close the swf file.

The code flow is as follows: user clicks 'download details' button on the page -> on button click handler a call to a RPC method is made using s:CallResponder -> RPC method generates and returns a URL from where to download the file -> the success event handler of the CallResponder gets the url where FileRefrence.download() is used to download the file but throws following error:-
Error: Error #2176: Certain actions, such as those that display a pop-up window, may only be invoked upon user interaction, for example by a mouse click or button press.
