Once in a while it doesn't load the first time through on certain machines. Because of this the client has asked me to add a button to the site much like here...
[URL]
The only problem with this is I need this button to "hide" once the site DOES load.
is it possible to have a back up image if the flash doesnt load?
The current code is:
<div id="mainBanner"> <div id="so1351">You will need flash to view this element<script type="text/javascript"> var so1351 = new SWFObject("/media/11695/29042009.swf", "flash", "994", "224", "8", "#FFFFFF"); so1351.write("so1351"); </script></div> </div>
So if i have a bitmap in a mc that doesnt animate (because i write directly into the bitmapdata) can i use CACHEASBITMAP?
View 3 RepliesI have developed a twitter API in Flash Professional CS4. It works fine when it plays in the flash player locally. But when I publish the file and play it in a browser it asks for settings to be modified. Since those were the local settings I have modified them and played the file in browser and it worked fine. when I upload the file to server and embed the swf into a html file and try to play it from the server nothing happens. The API doesn't load the feeds from twitter site. The display is always blank.Possible solutions I have tried.....
added security code in flash
1st method:flash.system.Security.allowDomain("*");
flash.system.Security.loadPolicyFile("");
2nd method:added the crossdomain.xml policy file from twitter website.
3rd method:followed any of the above methods along with changing the "Access network only" in publish settings.
adding a Paypal button to my Flash site.
View 6 RepliesI've read many of post on how to make a button with as3, and I finally got one button to work, however; if I add another button one of my movie clip symbols disappears and neither of my buttons work! Each button is a button symbol, on it's own layer, with own instance name, each action is on it's own layer referring to the unique instance names with their own function names. My code is below.
button_1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, myButtonFunction);
function myButtonFunction(event: MouseEvent) {
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("index.html");

I had an issue with my index.html testing on IE and the preloader just stalls on "loading 0%". he told me that locally the progress event doesn't have time to load and to try uploading it to your server and see if it works. It worked just fine. Rah Rah Kglad.
So today I'm fine tuning the swf/ fla to clean it up. Reduced some picture sizes and deleted unused files and reduced the swf from 4000 KB to 350 KB Rah Rah Gene. replaced the swf in Dreamweaver and re-uploaded with Filezilla. Rah ah Filezilla.
Everything working great and my preload went from 23 seconds to less than 3. So I'm real happy except for one small issue. Firefox and IE both do this. If I hit the refresh button, it stalls on "loading 0%" once again just like it did locally.
If I hit the refresh several times it WILL refresh randomly....2 times refresh......10 times refresh etc.

Spoke to my hosting company who said everything seems fine on the server. BTW he said Chrome did NOT have this issue Rah Rah Chrome.
I want my site to refresh every time I open it. I've been looking at the unique identifier script, but I can't seem to understand where it goes. Is it in the HTML with the SWF or in the SWF itself?When you load a movie, variables, or a text, what you load is put in the cache of your computer by your browser. This can cause problems because if you load files, chances are that you are going to update them quite often, but Flash will look for the files in the cache, that is to say the old ones.The solution is to load your files with a unique identifier. Example:
myIdentifier=Math.round(Math.random()*10000);
loadMovie("myAnim.swf?uniq="+myIdentifier,1);
This works also with LoadVariables, LoadMovieNum and LoadVariablesNum.
[URL]. Our client communicates with a Rails backend to get login details and then logs into an Adobe LCCS server. We have been cruising right along but around noon yesterday we developed a bug that causes the swf to not render until you refresh the page. On subsequent refreshes it pops up right away. The problem happened even when I disabled the code that checks in with the Rails server. How could refreshing make a difference?
View 1 Replies[URL] Above is a link to view the project I'm working on. Once the site loads if you go to the "Contact Us" page the content doesn't load correctly. I'm using an extrnal .xml and .css files for the content. I'm also embedding the fonts dynamicly. If I test the file locally on my computer is works fine the image loads as it's supposed to and content looks correct. However when I post the files to the server (which work exactly the same way) I get the white box when you can see from the link above. I'm at a complete loss as to how to to fix this.

I've been reading up on it for a while now, but I can't seem to figure it out.
I have a BarChart showing several normal bars and a BarSeries, like this:
<mx:BarChart id="barchart" dataProvider="{model.myList}" type="clustered">
<mx:horizontalAxis>
<mx:LinearAxis autoAdjust="true"/>[code]......
When a user clicks on a button, i need to calculate some values, put them on the "myCalculatedValue" and add another BarSeries as a comparison. I'm doing this:
var barSerie:BarSeries = new BarSeries();
barSerie.dataProvider = model.myList;[code].....
But the BarChart does not change at all. Is there some way to refresh the chart after adding the new BarSeries?

The movie loads in an external image and refreshes it every second. What happens, though, is the previous image seems to stay in memory. Eventually the browser will hang, because the memory footprint of the flash movie is so large. Even while testing outside the browser, I can see the memory increase by a couple hundred KB every second. You can see it at [URL]
The code I'm using is below (don't make fun, I don't claim to be a programmer).
Code:

I need some help? Anyone experience this problem before with IE8 FLASH bug? Can not get this to work on all subsequent refresh to the flash. I have a flash piece which simply renders only on the first initial load. After that, if i refresh or visit the page, it does not load correctly. It seems I am having this problem with the swf only on subsequent loading of the page or whenever a refresh happens.
View 1 RepliesThis one is tough to diagnose. I built an animated jigsaw app that pulls in a dynamic .swf that can be viewed here: [URL] It works perfect in Chrome. Works in FF 3.5.5 until I start reloading. Doesn't even work in IE7. Could be a embed problem in the HTML. Could be something I did in flash. [I can get more into the methods I used] [for those that only see it working or don't see it working] There should be an orange animation of a morphing shape cutout into jigsaw shaped pieces and a start button. When it doesn't load, the animation, nor start button display. And the menu is slightly messed up.
View 2 RepliesI just tested out my site in Firefox and IE. Everything works the way I want it to in Firefox but in IE I'm having trouble. When I click on a button my preloader shows up but doesn't stop to load the content, it plays straight through and then my movie pops up. Does anyone know why this might be happening? I've never encountered this problem before.

I am working on adding functionality to where the URL takes in a parameter as defined by an MVC style looking way.eg. (URL... )where 12345 is the corresponding Id number that I want to get.I have this functionality working.I am using Internet Explorer 7.My issue is that when a user attempts to enter a new query string id into the URL, the page doesn't refresh when the user hits enter or the refresh button. (The user can navigate to the url/#/Id/12345 only when opening a new window/tab)Does anyone know if this is a feature that doesn't work in Flex or if there is some code or configuration needed to allow this?
View 1 Replieswhy a site wouldn't load on first pull up? I have to press refresh to get it to pull up the content. All the content is dynamic pulling from a SOAP server.. Any clue why it wouldn't load? I don't think its a prob. with the content or the server. I used to have a random background script in there. But now we aren't using a random back ground.
View 4 RepliesSwf loads fine in all browsers. In any browser but IE 6+, navigating away then back using history/the back button causes the page and swf to reload fine.
With ie however, the swf fails to (re)load without throwing an error.
I'm using SWFObject 2.3 for the embed.
If you have a look at the link underneath, its a menu i got made at flash vortex but i want to implement it on my site and make each word a link to a seperate page, is there a way to do this?
View 1 RepliesI was wondering if anyone might know offhand why the images at this link: [URL] don't load properly the first time. Because after you let the browser load all of the images, then refresh the page, they load perfectly.
I realize that I should be posting the source code, but I don't have it right now. I will post it later today, for anyone interested.

View 1 RepliesI'm still a newbie in terms of as3, but have built a code-simple flash site (using CS3 & Dreamweaver). I've only just discovered SWFAddress / SWFobject / swffit and have been combing through my flash pages to implement these oh-so helpful tools. Troubled process, as it is...
I have literally spent days (not merely hours) trying to adapt various code, watching and following tutorial and trying to adapt what I find for my existing site (which is, unto itself, still in development)
I'm trying to avoid avoid using external packages and script instead on the timeline, in keeping with how the site was originally built (with hopes this would save me from having to rebuild and reorganise the structure of the timeline - there are several gallery pages and files and buttons and cross-linking). But I'll attach here just one fla ("archives.fla") that anyone whom has experience with SWFAddress might understand what I'm contending with. I've borrowed code from so many sources at this point that the script code is sure to be bungled (one top layer of the fla file, for deep linking).
I would be ever so grateful for assistance in this regard; cannot afford to pass another day trying to figure it out (I am on a deadline)...
file to big to attach; i don't believe looking at the code will be of any use without seeing the set up and references on the timeline... but i'll insert it anyway (below). is there a way to send the file to someone directly?
