IDE :: Enter Key In Browser?
Apr 11, 2009
how to enable the ENTER key in Flash (using AS2 still). In my SWF file it works fine, but once I publish it and open the HTML file, my ENTER key does not work.
How it works is: At the start you have to press enter to continue. Then you have to enter your menu choice in a input txt field with instance "databox_txt". If you type in "about" and hit ENTER it takes you to frame 30 and stops.
I've read that browsers does not support the ENTER key in Flash. Is there Perhaps a workaround? Via PHP perhaps?

When my focus is inside the input text field, pressing CTRL+ENTER works but ENTER does not.Pressing Enter when my focus is anywhere BUT the input text field works just fine..My intention is to detect if ENTER key was pressed after the user fills out the field, but it seems to only work for CTRL+ENTER
ActionScript 3:
// works:
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, enterHandler);
// ignored:
email.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, enterHandler);
[code]....
ENTER results in charCode == 0, whereas CTRL+ENTER is charCode == 13 email was created using the Text tool and set to "Editable"
Note: I am testing in Chrome and Firefox running Flash v10

I'm creating a Flash instant messaging application (through XMPP protocol) and run into a problem. It isn't that important but I was quite upset that I wasn't able to solve it and I want to know if their is a solution =D
I have a TextArea chat input and a button to send the text, the TextArea is multiline and so captures the Enter key to jump one line... What I need is to send the message with the Enter key and jump with a Ctrl+Enter combination... My ideas were to disable the bubbling of the Enter key, trap it, and then manually assign the Ctrl+Enter combination to jumping the line in TextArea but couldn't find how to do all this...

in other words, suppose I want to send data, like text, programmatically from a Windows app (such as a browser plugin) to a Flash app running in the browser. Well, conceptually, an example of this might be a Flash instant messenger with a textbox and button "Send"; so let's say I want to be able to programmatically paste the text and press Send or otherwise activate it. That's NOT what I am trying to do here in reality (i.e., no,I am not trying to spam other people's chat rooms or anything)but just an illustration of a similar situation.I can include in it whatever widget or hack that may be necessary.The reason why this problem is arising for me is that AFAIK the SDK that is providing me the data I want cannot be directly accessed from Flash, so I need a way to pipe the data from a regular app into Flash. can I have the Flash app interact with other apps through localhost IP? Or are there draconian restrictions on which server Flash in browser can and cannot interact?

I have a standalone Flash projector running off CD. Currently, I use
getURL("http:url....);
to open the page on default browser. Only problem is the browser window is opening at the size it was last used. I like to see it opens full screen.

The title essentially is the question, how do I open the .swf without the browser's control bar junk? and maximize the window?

I have a PHP mailer form on my site which needs to be published in action script2 to work, but I also have a script set up to open browser windows of a certain size & location which needs actionscript 1 to work? The PHP mailer form has a "Name" field, "Email" field & "Message" field, theses can all be reset with a button. The button clears off any text in the 3 boxes to wipe them clean. The script on the reset button is:
on(release) {
_root.myForm.formNameField.txt = ""
_root.myForm.formEmailField.txt = ""[code].....
This works fine with section script 2 but not with as1. Does anyone know of a script that resets the .text field on as1 Alternatively is there any way of opening browser windows from a flash movie with browser win controls, eg. centre win, no scrollbars.

I have looked around for this and haven't found a way that clearly explains how to do this. More often than not the button will close the browser window in one but not another browser.
Is the a simple way of closing a browser window in all types of browser ( Or mainly Firefox, IE and safari on both Mac and PC ) with actionscript?

I created a photo album viewer which grabs an XML file from my web site, and then parses the XML to get the paths to all the photos to be displayed by the album viewer. The code makes use of the URLLoader class to fetch the XML. The problem, though, is that in google Chrome it works-- but in IE8, it doesn't work. For example, the XML code and the image fetching code work seemlessly on Chrome. But in IE8 and in IE6, it seems to not be able to fetch such information.
I've read somewhere that you need a crossdomain.xml file at the root directory of your server. But I'm not crossing any domains! It's all coming from my server where the swf is being hosted!

To clarify when I ask about browser to browser communication I mean without a server in between forwarding message. I would like to implement something like this for a game. If p2p in websockets isn't possible are there similar alternatives?

I am not trying to track clicks or anything like other people - I just want to put a browser within a browser that can go back, forward, refresh, accept user-entered URLs, and store bookmarks. Can flash/silverlight/ajax/whatever do this? If so, how?

what i've done is made an application where when you click on a "Proceed" button i've placed on stage said button is removed using removeChild() and more input fields are made available.a new button named "nextbutton" is also created at the same time to run a function which, when clicked, will check the input for validity and then advance the movie to the next frame if it all checks out.assuming the data does check out then the last command of the function (of the newly created "nextbutton" button) is to gotoAndStop(2); to advance the movie to the next frame.
i'm using the mouse_down mouseevent listener on both buttons to run my functions ie:
proceedbutton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.Mouse_Do wn, proceedbuttonCLICK);
nextbutton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.Mouse_Down, nextbuttonCLICK);
the problem i'm having is that if i tab thru my input textfields to enter data (and who doesn't) i end up tabbing to my "Proceed" button and then hitting the enter key. but if i hit enter on the button istead of clicking it then none of my if/else statements written into the nextbuttonCLICK function execute. even worse somehow the gotoAndStop(2); command somehow DOES execute (at least i think it does) because the movie advances to the next frame in my timeline. so now i'm at the next frame but my variables have not even been calculated ....what i don't get is the gotoAndStop(2); statement is written into the function for the "nextbuttonCLICK" so how the heck can hitting enter on a highlighted "Proceed" button have the effect it does? is it something built into the button class itself? i did choose to make my buttons "buttons" and not movie clips so the user would see the little hand cursor when mousing over them.

I was certain that in AC3 this is done by default, when the button is in focus and the ENTER key is press, it dispatches a Click event.
myButon.addEventListener("click", funClick);
function funClick(evtObj:Event):void { trace("yes");}

This line of code is generating codes for other keys but not the Enter Key trace("key code: : " + e.keyCode); It's like AS3 doesn't know there is such a key. The code should be 13 but on my system according to AS3 it doesn't exist. I'm usind CS4 is this a CS4 bug?
