I have a .swf file that is not looping although I have added the parameter to do so. It plays just the once, and at the end of the video it stops instead of looping.
<div id="video">
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="211" height="316" id="FLVPlayer" style="visibility: visible; ">
<param name="movie" value="FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf">
<param name="quality" value="best">
<param name="wmode" value="opaque">
[Code] .....
I've created a very simple video player that I want to use with many different FLV files on my site. Rather than packaging SWF files with each FLV, I'd like to just design one SWF file and have the corresponding HTML file pass the URL of the FLV as a parameter to the SWF. I've read a lot about passing in parameters from HTML to SWF using AS3, and it seems pretty straightforward. Here's an example of the code I created using Flash CS3 and ActionScript 3.0:
this.loaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,loaderComplete); function loaderComplete(evt:Event):void { //traceText.text = "Loaded";
[Code]....
Note that I'm using the variable "userName" to pass the parameter. Eventually I'd use a variable like "movieURL" to convey the actual URL of the FLV file. In any case, when I run the code, I get ... nothing! Nothing but a blank text box. Both the HTML and SWF files are on my local machine.
If I uncomment the "//traceText.text = Loaded" line, the text box says "Loaded", which would indicate that the event listener is functioning properly.
I'm working with a swf file (a simple flash movie) and I am trying to get it to loop. I've tried setting loop="true" in the embed tag, and for the object.
Does this mean that the problem is in the swf file itself?
I am not new to html or flash but, some what new to XML. I created a carousel based off the tutorials and it works great on my computer but, when I create an html file and attach the .swf file the flash file loads but, the icon images or anything from the .xml file doesn't appear.This is what I use to load my .swf file :
I am trying to create html links from a external xml file to be dynamically added to a text field (im using flash builder)the process i am having trouble is: -Loading an external swf which contains the textfield loading external xml which contains the cdata with links adding the cdata to the htmltext property of the textfield the link is showing correctly, the mouse turns into a hand... but when i click on the link it doesnt work. i have seen a few forum posts similar to this problem but all are using textfield control in flash builder but im trying to add the cdata into an externally loaded swf which holds the textfield.
So I have a looping SWF file that I uploaded on my website. It played perfectly until I decided to add a preloader.
I set up the Flash file with 2 Scenes, "Preloader" and "Scene 1" .The Preloader scene will play just fine. After the preloader plays, Scene 1 then begins to play as it should. However, once the animation ends, instead of looping like it did before, it just stops on the first frame.
How can I get my SWF to play the Preloader, and then continue looping the main animation (Scene 1)?
Here is my AS:
import flash.events.ProgressEvent; function update(e:ProgressEvent):void { var percent:Number = Math.floor( (e.bytesLoaded*100)/e.bytesTotal );

I have added an swf in my php page using embed and object of HTML.It loads the SWF in http:[url]...... and working fine, but when i apply url rewriting then the swf is not shown on the page although $_REQUEST['action'] prints edit .The URL i am using is http:[url]...
Is it possible to send params to swf using SWFLoader or something like it?So.. I want to create swf loader (swf) which would be able to send some Application.application.parameters to swf swf I'm triing to load (which are usualy sent to an application from html.)
I am using fancybox within a html page and I am calling an flv file via a swf file, plays fine locally and works via the web, the problem is that I need to link all of my assets with remote urls as I need to host the html elsewhere. So html hosted on server A and assets on server B. So my thoughts turn to adding the flash parameter to the query.fancybox-1.3.4.pack.js file and this is where I get stuck.url...I've located the object tag in the query.fancybox-1.3.4.pack.js file I just need to add the allowScriptAccess parameter.[code]
I've recently been having a few problems generally relating to retriving URL information. I've overcome most of these errors at the point of posting this thread, however one still eludes me:
Within the application, the parameter is being refered to in an if statement.
In all tests, including those on a web server, this code returns an "undefined" value. The only time at which I can get the code to work is when the swf is by itself, as soon as it is embedded into a HTML or other page it appears that the parameters cannot be picked up from the URL.
The URL could be example.com/app/?variable=123. The variable would be returned as "123", however it is not picked up.
after 3yrs doing this stuff, i feel like I'm still learning the basics of .as and .html and am wondering how I can pass a parameter to another server using Flash. ... Man, how do I explain this? ... An html guy set up his server to display my content- ie: He setup his server..
I'm working on a project where the HTML in which my main SWF is embedded will be called with a couple of dynamic parameters, like this:PHP Code:how to get that parameter into my SWF?
I had created a website about a week that was written 100 percent in Flash CS4. Today I was taking a tutorial on Lynda.com that had to do with SEO in Flash CS4. I added some h1 and h2 tags just as the below code shows:
<style type="text/css"><!--body { text-align: center;}--></style></head><body bgcolor="#000000"><h1>RENCON Intellectual Property</h1><p>RENCON Intellectual Property introduces the Relational Squaring System for construction and layout personnel.</p><h2>Relational Squaring System</h2><p>The Relational Squaring System is the newest and easiest way for construction layout personnel to create 90-degree angles.</p><h2>Contact RENCON Intellectual Property</h2><p>You can contact RENCON Intellectual Property at info@rencononline.com.</p><!--url's used in the movie--><!--text used in the movie--><!--
For some reason when I preview it in a browser the site much lower on the browser page. I put the code back the way it was and now everything looks right again.
So I'm trying to do something like this....<param name="movie" value="comp.swf?rootDomain=3" />where I have a variable called 'rootDomain' in my html, as a parameter.I want to be able to call that from my flash, but whenever I try it comes up as undefined.I'm using this code in my flash..
I was reading about Flex- JavaScript communication via ExternalInterface.But I had a doubt, it said that the javascript code should be written in the HTML file of the application ? Now which is this HTML file ? Is it the index.template.html file per project or the HTML file created per MXML application ?
I am sending out a standalone player that uses an xml driven image gallery. I need to prevent changes to the xml file to stop images being added to the gallery. I can can password protect the xml file to prevent changes, but I also wondered if there was a way to validate the authenticity of the xml file from within Flash to prevent the entire file being replaced?
I know this should be very simple, but in following the examples I can find on passing parameters from HTML to my Flash App I have not been successful. I would like to find a relatively current example using AS3, Flash CS4. I need to pass the url of an XML file off to the flash app so that it can go pick up instructions on what it is supposed to be playing. We want to do it this way because we don't control the web site so we can't just leave the XML file on the server and maintain it as needed.
I have a project where I need to keep track of where the user is at a certain point of a flash training orientation.
Flash application needs to accept a parameter which contains a unique ID for the user running the flash application. This ID needs to be stored throughout the session of the flash application, from page to page. Once a user travels from page-X to page-X in the Flash, the next button needs to call an aspx page in order to send that ID and the page position so the aspx can write to an XML file this information. If the user does not finish the flash, once they return, the aspx needs to read the correct XML file and send 2 parameters to the flash application. These 2 parameters will be the user's ID and the page the user was on the flash can load the correct page. Instead of passing 2 parameters so the flash can dynamically load the correct section, the aspx can call the correct flash file (i.e. flash_file2.swf) but still pass the user's ID as a parameter.
<param name="FlashVars" value="nameCheck=boo&imageCheck=image01.jpg"> ...in the parameters section of the flash object code.
I know that to extract the info I need to basically use:
Code:
var paramObj:Object = LoaderInfo(this.root.loaderInfo).parameters;
...in my as3 code but I am wondering what would be the syntax to return a text field containing the sent variable 'boo' and fill an image area with the file name from the variable 'imageCheck'?
I am streaming an FLV as an intro video for a website. This intro video contains two HTML buttons (login + enter) overlayed using a transparent DIV. The client has specifically asked for the video to loop if the user clicks on "login" as they will need additional time to enter their details. However, if the user doesn't click on anything then they want the site to automatically carry on to the homepage. My question is: How do I get the HTML to communicate these conditions to my FLV player that is streaming the intro video? This is AS3.0.
