I design and build primarily full screen flash pages using AS2, and making my segway to AS3. I know that as of last year google can now crawl through SWF files, but I was wondering if anyone out there can offer some of the best ways to make a Fullpage Flash site work in conjunction with Google. I get this question a lot from my customers.

View 3 RepliesI wanted to put a search box in my flex app that would act just like google or google finance: you start typing and a drop down list just below starts filtering the results dynamically.

View 1 RepliesI like to make a fullscreen desktop application, with an FLV, using the FLV Playback component. However, I�d like there to be a Fullscreen button on the playback component, which will allow the user to toggle the video fullscreen.I cant, for the life of me, figure out how to do this with various settings�it should be easy! This is what I have--is there a better way to do things (without a custom movie player)? My inital settings are as follows:
Code:
stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
theMovie.fullScreenTakeOver = false;
Then I have a function which should work--but my button won't appear in fullscreen--Can I apply this function to the built-in fullscreen button?:
Code:
function handleClick(event:MouseEvent):void

What I've done is created a "fullscreen SWF" by using ActionScript to stretch a movie clip (yellow rectangle) in the background to fill the whole browser frame. The navigation is positioned in the upper left using ActionScript also; when the user resizes the window, positions are adjusted so the nav always stays in the upper left. (Adapting the technique from http:[url]....
External SWFs are loaded from an XML file into a blank movie clip on a layer that is between the yellow background and the navigation (adapting the kirupa XML Photo Gallery). Here's my problem: I want to be able to create full screen backgrounds for these external SWFs so when they are loaded into the main SWF they cover up all the of yellow background of the main clip. Also if the user resizes the window, I hope like the main SWF, the background on the external SWF can also resize to match.
If you press next twice to get to item three for example, I want to be able to stretch that orange box to fill the entire background. You'll notice if you resize the window on the third item, the orangle rectangle will adjust, it's just not correct.
I'm hoping someone can help me with an issue I'm having.
I currently have an AIR Application that runs fullscreen.
At some point in the application, I am trying to get a video to play fullscreen as well.

Is that possible?
I know its not possible to copy and paste the javascript code into Flash, because Flash won't do anything about it (or cause an error).But I do know the Google Adsense code generates an iFrame to show the ad. So I was thinking if I were to grab the iFrame source (the src attribute) and load that html page into Flash... maybe? So I guess my question would be is it possible to have Flash load an HTML page?I know there is MochiAds, but I would like to get a little bit more % of the $ :)

View 3 Repliesmy flash file has different pages and on every page flip i want to track the hits using GoogleAd.. this is how i am trying to get it within flash:
Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
getURL("javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/filetrack/'+_root.currentPage.text+'.html');");
}
root.currentPage.text is the generated page number- but this does not seem to work- looks like within this getURL parameter i can not add any variables.. is there any other way to get the same result..

View 1 RepliesI am trying to push in the Google Analytics library into my As3 widget. I plan to use the EventTracking feature in addition to the regular HTML-like pageview tracking that it provides. I plan to use the library in As3 mode (not the Bridge mode) since the widget is embedded on a lot of external domains.
Using the SWC to add the component to my project adds about 50k in file size. And my widget in itself is a very painstakingly achieved 120kb. I cannot afford the 50k overhead and every KB trimmed takes me closer to actually using GA with my player.
I got the code down from [URL].. and am trying to figure out any libraries that I can weed out to save file size, yet retain core functionality.

View 1 RepliesFrom what I can tell on the Google Fonts API, these fonts are meant to be accessible by JavaScript/CSS. Is there any way to dynamically load them for a Flash application without having to download them locally to the server?Update: So I've been piddling around with this some more, and the following are just some thoughts I had about how to go about it. None of them work, but I feel like they're on the right track. Just for future reference...When you choose a font to use in the Google API, you're provided with a link to a CSS stylesheet that's generated based on your preferences:[code]
I initially tried using just the href URL inside my <fx:Style source=.../>, but ActionScript rejected this (not sure if it was because it wasn't local, or it realized it didn't end in .css).After that failed, I copied the link into my browser and manually retrieved the CSS, pasting it inside <fx:Style> tags like you would with any other CSS. Again, ActionScript didn't like this because it couldn't locally locate the URL.I suspect some of these precautions are in place due to the whole 'security sandbox' bit that Flash enforces.
