I'm pretty new to flash and was hoping someone could offer some guidance with shared objects.hen the user refreshes the page by either refreshing or moving to another page the movie replays which is not the desired action.
View 2 RepliesI want an mp3 player stretched at the bottom of the screen that won't refresh on page reload. I just want to embed a basic mp3 player in some flash, or use jquery, or ajax? Not really sure. I'm most familiar with jquery and would prefer that route. I just not sure how you could have a div that stretches through every page, but only being defined in one page.
View 1 Repliesi'm working on a project that uses php and xml to link my database information with flash. I've successfully allowed flash to read the xml contents. I need to randomise the data i retrieved from the database, so my xml content will change everytime i refresh the browser. However, i realised that the flash content didn't change like the xml content. The script to read the xml is written on the 1st frame of my 1st scene. Is there a way to read the xml again everytime i refresh the browser or re-enter the scene?

View 9 RepliesAt my site [URL] I have PHP/MySQL talking to flash, when the holder movie opens it loads my home.swf into the content movie clip... It works fine once but if you click the home button (which runs the same function) or refresh the page it blanks out the text field and won't reload the content.
Code:
stop();
goHome();
function goHome() {
_root.background_mc.gotoAndStop(1);
_root.holder_mc.loadMovie("home.swf");

View 3 RepliesI have a photo gallery that runs in a container, which is added to the stage like so:
import com.xmlphotoalbum.*;
var gallery:XmlPhotoAlbum = new XmlPhotoAlbum();
gallery_container.addChild(gallery);
I want to have it set up so when you click on a "gallery" button, it reloads/refreshes the gallery to its initial state, because the "internal" navigation of the gallery isn't very intuitive...and so the only thing I can think of is essentially to remove the gallery and re-add it, whenever "gallery" button is clicked, which resets the gallery to its initial thumbnail view. I've tried fumbling around with removeChild, addChild, simple if statements, etc.

View 1 RepliesI have a blank container mc into which I am loading JPGs after you click on a button. There are 10 buttons in the movie, each associated with a different JPG.This container_mc is part of a function called on the main Timeline.The Flash movie is 1 frame on the main Timeline. This code works correctly on the first JPG when I click on a button for the first time), but then when you click on a different button I believe it just uses the dimensions and coordinates of the first JPG. How can I reset or refresh (unload, reload) this function so it works correctly every time I load a new JPG?
//after full size image loads into detailthumb_mc,
//resize image so that neither width nor height is > 150, tben recenter
onClipEvent(load) {

I'm using PHP to send variables in the URL so that my Flash movie that is embeded in an HTML page shows a different frame according to which HTML page is called. However, each page has to be reloaded for the Flash to show, b/c on first load it is blank. I've checked all the syntax but can't find the problem.

View 2 RepliesHere is the code that I've got, I'm also using SWFaddress:
Code:
function whyPageLoad(event:Event):void {
var link:URLRequest = new URLRequest("[URL]");
navigateToURL(link, "_self");
}
The swf exists on a page [URL] and the link above [URL] doesn't work/do anything. I tested the swf on a different URL and it loads the page correctly or if I load it into "_blank" it also works. So it seems to be something with the common URL string that is not causing a page reload.

View 1 RepliesI have an aspx page with a flash movie (gallery) that calls another aspx page which gets the info form a database and returns XML that the movie uses to populate the gallery with. Currently I have it use a query string that is passed through the flashvars so it will get the right info on post back. Is there a way I can reload the movie and pass the variable into flash without a postback? For instance the page doesn't reload, just the flash with the correct set of images.This is the JS used for the movie:
Code:
Select all<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">

Ive read you can do this with share objects but, have search and search and i cant find a concrete or simple answer to follow.
No frame solution please, this does not look good when viewing image on laptop (768 as height)
What i am looking to do is create 5 pages with the same flash header. Links will be below the movie. When people click on the links a new page opens (same window) without reloading the flash file.
I think i need a code to put in my first frame to store a cookie but cant find the code.
I've made a XML based Mp3 player using Flash 8 and AS2. The player is working just fine, I mean playing song on previous and next button. Now I want to enlarge this and my idea is to list all the mp3s on a PhP page and allow user to listen to any song randomly. This means, user can click any song name and that song will start playing in the player.
My problem over here is; the song listing and the player will be on one single page and clicking on any song wont reload that page to play the selected song but just reload the content of the mp3 player.
I know this can be done in Javascript. My thought on this is:
On clicking each song name, I need to call a JS function and pass to it the "ID" of the song. This JS function needs to pass "that ID" to the swf which will play the song.
Keeping aside the complexity involve in ActionScript to fetch the song name as per the passed ID, I need to know how to pass this ID from JS to AS
