IDE :: Preloader Works To Load On A Site?
Jul 15, 2009I made a preloader that works perfectly to load one of my .swf's on my machine, but how do I make it work on a site? I'm mocking up a site currently just using local files.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Site Works In IDE But Not Browser?
Jul 15, 2010I have one main SWF, called `top.swf` which loads about five other SWFs.`top.swf` first loads an XML file with the URLs of the SWFs, then it attempts to load the SWFs. The URLS for the SWF files are absolute.Currently, everything works within the Flash CS3 IDE. The SWF files are loaded and displayed, and the SWF files load additional external assets (Bitmaps).
When I test the application in the browser, it haults. I think it is stopping at the loading of the SWFs, but it is not throwing an IOErrorEvent, so the URLs are correct.In both the IDE and the browser, I am using the same URL information. It is all under http://localhost/.One thing that is different is that I am using a custom class to load the XML and SWF files and then they are returned to the main Document class.
*Edit*I believe I have pinpointed the problem to this class. The class runs fine but does not seem to reach the method called `singleLoaded()`.
Code:
package mtm.net
{
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.errors.IOError;
[code]....
Okay, well I've tested the MultiLoader class above in a separate test app and it works fine loading the SWFs. There are 5 SWFs that are being loaded.I have now discovered that only 3 of the SWFs are being loaded, so the _totalLoaded variable in MultiLoader never reaches the value of _totalToLoad.

Jan 15, 2012getting this here Flash website to work. It is an .swf that has four different buttons in it. Each different button uploads a different video thumbnail with a play-button over it. When you click on that thumbnail with the play-button over it, it goes to the thumbnailed video which automatically plays. Here is the link:
[URL]
There are no bells and whistles with the html, it's just tagged and uploaded with the Fullscreen-true so that you can make the video go full-screen.
But see, when I upload the thing, the buttons no longer navigate to the different videos unless the play-button over the thumbnail is already pressed and its video is already playing. I need them to work anyways.
Flash :: Full Screen Site Not Working On PC IE / Firefox Only (mac Works Fine)

I got this from a template on flashDen. my problem is that I only have my mac and can't test on PC IE / firefox. Not that I would know where to start.

But recruiters use PC and it is very embarrassing that they can only see 1/4 of the screen.

Mar 7, 2009I'm working on a website ([URL] - don't think the flash file can be seen in FF yet) and I want to load an swf-file with some illustrations and such. As this could get a little big, I have made another swf-file which shows a preloader and loads the first swf-file. The preloader works perfectly when tested in Flash CS3, but when uploaded to and tried on my webhost's server, the preloader doesn't load anything. Instead it of the load-percentage it just writes "NaN". You can find the as3-code down below. The preloader-swf and the swf to be loaded are located in the same folder. Both are as3.
This is the code from my as-class file:

ActionScript 2.0 :: CS3 : PHP Streaming FLV Video Player Works Fine Standalone Not As Well In Flash Site?
Mar 2, 2009I am using a flash website template (basically stripped of 95% of the code they provided, and just using their graphics) from [URL] I needed to add streaming video, and I elected to use PHP streaming found on www.flashcomguru.com; as modified by lance of courierwebcasts [URL].
The problem I have is that when I use the scrubber.swf to play a video, updating variables and addresses as appropriate, it works fine. However when I take it and recreate every element of the player in a movie on the timeline of my template site, everything but the time counter works fine. It plays fine, it scrubs fine, etc.; it just always displays 00:00/00:00. I am guessing it has to do with variable definition or somethingbut it is beyond me... any help?
Here is just the bit that I am pretty sure is the issue;
code: ns["onMetaData"] = function (obj) {
duration = obj.duration;
durationMinute = Math.floor(duration/60);

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash CS3 Preloader Only Works As Export?
Feb 11, 2009I made a preloader for a flash slideshow with different announcements in AS 3.0.When I export the movie to preview it everything works fine. The loading rectangle fills up and then you see the slideshow. The problem comes after I embed it in HTML. Instead of the Preloader to show all i get is a white rectangle the size of the SWF and then the slideshow begins. It's as if it was ignoring the preloader completely. I don't understand why it works when I export it but not on the actual site.
Heres my preloader script:
Code:
stop();
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, loadingInfo);
function loadingInfo(e:Event):void {

ActionScript 2.0 :: Preloader Works Only Towards The Last Bytes Downloaded?
Apr 24, 2011But ive noticed an anomaly. When i test the movie (with simulate download settings ofcourse so that you can actually see the preloader work) the preloader shows only from 90% onwards to 100% and then the page loads up. Which means when i run the movie, the result is a blank frame for quite sometime, when actually the preloader should be showing but it doesnt, instead its just the project default window color, then it starts the preloader at the frag end of the bytes coming in, so it only shows 95%-100% and then the page loads.
The same preloader method (2 looping frames with its AS2) works perfectly in front of the keyframe that contains another webpage, Home.swf which is a seperate file and things work perfectly there.o i put a trace into the 2 looping frames to see whats going on with the acquired bytes variable. I was shocked to see that the preloader loop isnt even running. It running itself only at 94% onwards and then ofcourse reports the percentage on the screen correctly. But till 94% its not able to sense the bytes getting loaded. It senses only after 94% and then starts reporting it.
Actionscript 3.0 :: PreLoader Works After The Content Is Loaded?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Why XML Image Preloader Works In IE But Not Firefox
Mar 2, 2007My portfolio is a combination of elements from Kirupa's gallery and my own.The portfolio works fine but the loader just doesn't work correctly. It can be tested at URL...In Firefox the loadbar flashes once(which it shouldn't do) and the dynamic text box displays a NaN% and then 100% so something isn't being defined correctly. In IE 6.5 however there is no NaN% displayed, the preload bar flashes once and then works fine. I don't know why there would be a difference between browsers.Please take a look at the code below and let me know why the files being loaded into the picture container aren't correctly preloading. It's been a week of working on this endless portfolio and I just want it to be over.[code]

Preloader Does Not Work As It Should In Full Site
Sep 30, 2009I am working with Flash MX Professional 2004 on a mac running Tiger. I am near to finishing a fully flash based website.I am fairly new to Flash so experiencing a wee problem with my Preloader. The preloader is an animation in a movieclip that I have placed at the start of each scene that contains only one of my portfolio photos which once downloaded fades in and fades out. The Preloader tested in an isolated test scene on its own works fine, it is placed in frame 1 with the following actionscript 2 and a stop action placed in an actions layer. The downloading photo fade in starts in frame 2. When the user closes the photo it unloads it from the level it is in ready for the user to choose another photo which will go in to the same level.
Yet when the same scene is played back on its own level within the main website FLA it does work as an animation. Rather it stalls, blank to start with then at 50% download it goes straight to the 100% loaded part of the Preloader animation and stays like that until the photo has fully downloaded. It does this at all bandwidth tests and also does this when tested live once uploaded to server. It should animate smoothly up until the photo downloads. Very frustrating problem. I notice that the first frame of the scene has an unusually large size for some reason as the preloader is only 10kb in reality yet shows as 60kb, may be there is something going on here or perhaps it just needs the script changing slightly?[code]
Professional :: Preloader For Flash Site?
Aug 11, 2010I don't know much about Flash so understanding how to implement a preloader for my entire site is just a bit beyond me. Basically, I just want a loading bar, "loading" text, and the percentage text (this should all be in AS3). I know that in Flash CS5, a preloader bar is included as one of the components. The only problem is that I don't know what to do with it (and it shows up as blue and white so not sure how to change the colour).

ActionScript 2.0 :: See The Preloader Loading The Site From 0%
Jun 10, 2008we have a website online the last few days, narrowcastmedia.co.za. Everything works well but the only prob encountered so far is our main preloader (positioned on the 1st frame, once loaded it sends you to frame 3 where the rest of the code lies), the preloader itself only is visible when starting around 80/90%. I want to be able to see the preloader loading the site from 0%. Ive changed the settings of AS2 where i export the classes in frame 3. it helps a little bit but still the preloader starts now from around 60/70% and still not from 0%. A AS file is attached so you guys can have a look at the code behind the preloader.

Jan 27, 2011I've written a simple preloader which I've put in its own movie clip. The code is as follows:
[code]...
The code works out a value between 0 and 1 called 'loadVal' this is used to animate a masking object a distance defined by a variable called 'yShift'. loadVal is rounded up to give a whole number that is displayed in a text field showing the percentage of the movie which has loaded.The preloader seems to be running and it will trigger the move to play when it completes but I can't see the preloader previewing in the Bandwidth Profiler, even when I set the data speed to be very slow. I've noticed this issue before and it is annoying as I need to see how the preloader looks and works.
