I have imported an .FLV file to my flash movie and no matter what I try when I upload this it just won't show online. heres the info in my component properties:and im just loading the .swf in the normal old fashion way for testing:
HTML Code:
<embed height="400" width="540" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" src="intro.swf" play="true" loop="true" menu="true"></embed>
[code].....
It plays perfectly well in 'Publish Preview' and when you launch the HTML page offline. However it won't play online. First I published it in Flash 8, where I'd created it, uploaded the swf and the html. In Firefox it loaded a blank page which revealed on right click that there was a Flash movie there, but you couldn't see it or do anything. In IE it just stuck half way through loading. Then I resaved it in Flash CS3 and published it with AC_runactivecontent.js. Uploaded it to my site and the result was exactly the same. To check my syntax a friend uploaded it to his webspace, and put another swf on the same page using the same syntax. The new swf played, but mine didn't. The 'publish settings' for the two were the same. Again, if you look at the page offline both play. My friend made some changes to the FLA and published it successfully on his webspace. He suggested the file size may have been a problem: I had had some fairly large audio files in it and 'updated' them to smaller ones. The resulting swf was 6mb. We wondered if the old ones had been retaines somewhere, boosting the file size. The only other difference I can see between his version and mine is that there's a font I used which wasn't on his PC. His version has it as Arial (there is only one word in the whole thing). I took his version, deleted the sound files and reimported the smaller versions, which then published as a 3mb file. But now it doesn't play! Results in IE and FF exactly as above.
View 7 RepliesWe're using the script to have an online brochure, and now want to be able to put it on a CD for offline browsing as well.When it is viewed offline, an error message pops up and wants me to add the page/folder in here:Since this is a plugin script that doesn't have an fla file for me to edit, what are my options here? I've tried to decompile the swf file in order to make the changes, but that doesn't work (the script is fairly complex, so I didn't think it would decompile fully).

I am loading 2 external text files into my SWF.. I believe that my action script is correct as it works pefect offline.. However as soon as I uploaded it to my webspace, both text boxes have the "undefined" text sitting there.. The problem doesn't exsist when I only have 1 external text file loaded..
//load 1st text file
myData1 = new LoadVars();
myData1.onLoad = function() {

Hi,
i am very new to actionscript,and i am trying to change language of text of label for online-offline button.actually for other label text i am able to change the language but for online and offline button it is getting difficult because it is depending upon network available.Also for the label for online-offline,we can't give separate property for online and offline.Only either online or only offline we can give.
Can you please find any solution for this?

Below i am giving the code i have written for online-offline.But that one is working only for online,not off line
<mx:Label text="{resourceManager.getString(GlobalConstants.R EADER_BUNDLE, 'online')}" styleName="tahomaPlain" fontSize="10"/>
I've used this website a lot over the past few weeks as a reference for my actionscript 2 questions. It's really been fantastic ď so first I would like to take a moment to appreciate the community and wealth of information on this site and forum.
I have a couple of methodology questions concerning an .fla file I'm working on. I made a flash gallery here. As you can see online the images fade in as they are loaded dynamically via the loadClip() method.I would prefer them to load more like this. Is it possible to load an image to a variable instead of a MovieClip that exists on stage?
In addition to this if you download the zip file with the flash file you'll notice that the position of the images and the text is more accurate than when viewed in a browser. I thought flash was a self-contained entity and that it would run identically on all platforms / browsers / online / offline / remotely / locally.
I have an SWF file that works great when I publish it or view it in the Flash Player. However, when I use Simulate Download, all the buttons' functionality gets messed up - for some reason, clicking them results in the playhead going to other frames than it's supposed to. I've tried uploading the file to my website and the buttons don't work well there either.

View 2 RepliesI'm starting AS3 and I'm building a video project.
The objective is to have 2 different videos, which will intersect in a certain point.
When the 2nd video starts playing I want to show a subtitle for it. Here's the problem. When exporting the swf everything goes ok, but when I upload it the textField disappears.
I don't know what to do or think. It's just a textField (exported from library).
I'm a new Flash user, trying to build a fairly intricate website by newbie standards. I have a basic understanding of Actionscript and OOP, enough to build a fairly nice looking full-featured website. Most of my goals for the website have been met, including dynamic XML content, a dynamic navigation menu, dynamic screenshot galleries.My current nemesis is a flash video gallery. I'm using xml lists of video locations (different types of video, including flv, wmv, and avi), and I've tried both the stock CS4 video player component (FLVPlayback) and the ubiquitous ToobPlayer 1.0.
Here's the problem. When I compile the video and view it offline, with either player component, it works beautifully! Loads each video from the XML gallery and performs as requested. When I upload it to an FTP and run the website (in an html file) as an http:// link, the video player component is no longer visible and nothing playsIt's driving me ape! Do I need to include some .as files when I upload or something?
I got this script
Code:
on (release) {
var lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
lv.onLoad = function(success:Boolean) {
if (success) {

First of all I am new in flash i have one problem that i have added one swf file in site and change increase its width for proper setting in my webpage now what happens is when i am running that page in offline firefox/chrome/IE then all displays good and asper my incresed dimensions but when i uploaded the page on server and then testing online then the in IE it displays perfect but....... in Firefox and in Chrome it displays in small size (in original size, before my edit)
View 1 Repliesthis is my first flash test and I have been stuck for weeks to solve this issue. I am currently with Mediatemple, standard gs plan, and I have three files that I wish to upload:
index.html (html file)
ProgBar.swf (Preloader)
Main.swf (External Swf that is being loaded)
If you open the html file locally on a computer, it works fine, however the problem arises when these files are uploaded to the internet,. It doesn't seem to work at all... Please help me figure out why. Thank you for your consideration.
I've set up an event listener to check if an image has been loaded. If yes, then change the width and height of it. I achieved this by using .target.loader.content. It works fine on my machine, but things are different, when I upload the swf to the server. the images get loaded, but aren't resized as they were offline. What might be causing this? What changes should I do in the snippet to get it working.This is the function that is called using the eventListenerfunction setImage(evt:Event){ sig_txt.text =evt.currentTarget.content.toString(); var loader:Bitmap = evt.target.loader.content as Bitmap; gallery_mc.addChild(loader); var ratio:Number = loader.width / loader.height; loader.width = 100; loader.height = 100 / ratio; loader.y = total_height; total_height += loader.height + 20

View 1 RepliesIn The Flash Application, my gallery is working as it is meant to. Yet, when I upload the swf to the live site, the first image, text and movie of my gallery works but it refuses to scroll to the next item in my XML.
I have given it an absolute path to that server which works in Flash but not when it is online.

View 1 RepliesSwf generated by class (shown below) brings in the noponies as3 accordion which all works ok locally. But when I put it online nothing is shown. I think it's something to do with the xml files but not too sure

I created a custom google voice callback swf so someone could put in their phone number, and google voice will call them and connect them to me (essentially calling me). Everything works fine when i run it from my computer, but when I put it online it doesn't work.
The way it works is you put in your own phone number and name, then click call, and it rings the phone of the phone number you put in. This doesn't happen when accessing it from online though.
I've provided a link to the fla for your view, and I'll also post the embed code I have on my site.

View 2 RepliesI made (or copied) this XML 3d Carousel: [URL]
I changed some settings, just what I needed like stage size, thumbnail size and so it doesn't spin too fast when mouse rolls over.
I replaced the images with my own, so I have like four now spinning around. It works fine when I hit Ctrl + Enter to test my movie and aswell the carousel.html works in the browser.
I uploaded all files (four images named c_img(number).png, carousel.xml, carousel.swf and the AC_RunActiveContent.js) all in the same folder to my website through FileZilla but the god damn movie doesn't work on the web. It just shows the background so it must be the images are not loading in correctly, but I can't find what's wrong. I've checked the file paths and they are correct, I don't use any cross-domains. Honestly I can't find the problem, it works on the tutorial site so why not on mine? I basically just copied all, nothing more.
I did notice a strange thing though. If I write the direct address in the browser address field [URL] so it loads in full screen, the image carousel shows but very far outside to the right of the screen. I used Firebug and changed the size of the flash movie so I could see far beyond, it's very f'ed up..
Direct link to it: [URL]
If you have Firebug, use it and change the size of the flash and you'll see the carousel to the right of the screen, outside the main flash content area. :/
i have a flash (swf) file
i embedded it in an html page
the location is right
it works locally when i preview it in a browser
as soon as i upload it - it doesn't show up
here's the page: [URL]
here's the location of the swf file: [URL]
i've even tried relative vs. absolute links and nothing. i've tried firefox and safari. nothing.
i'm guessing this is some dumb simple thing, and hopefully it took you longer to read this than it will to type the answer.
i am embarrassed that i am not getting this but hey, it needs to be fixed and i'm sick of looking at it and trying to figure it out.
As you can see on [url]...the last part of the Flash movie seems to be broken. Oddly enough, when I take the embedded SWF and view it separately[url]...
I'm not a flash expert, I don't know what can go wrong with embedding etc. but the actual FLA file seems to be ok, the map layer that is coming through randomly at the end shouldn't even be there! The frames at this point of the timeline on this layer are actually empty.
im loading some RSS from twitter.. it works fine when i'm testing local, but when customer uploads it on 3rd part server, it doesent work. It's most likely a flash security issue. Is it possible to make a serverscript file that outputs the RSS to flash? Our server does have both ASP and PHP directories.. so any will do.

View 0 RepliesI just discovered a strange thing : I have a preloader in all my swfs. All work great online and when I test the swf or the preview in html exepted 1 : the first swf to be loaded called homepage.Here is the schema of the site : HTML page is linked ( with a enter btn)to the 1st swf called Homepage. No preloader gets visible and so, the swf takes a long time to load after clicking the enter button of the html page.Note : the html page is visible until the swf is totally loaded....
