JavaScript :: How To Dynamically Call Function At Runtime Without Using Eval

Nov 11, 2011

I'm trying to build an API in JS that will perform some operations and then execute the callback that's registered in AS when it's done. Because it's an API, I am just providing a JS method signature for another developer to call in Flash. Thus, the callback name that's registered in the AS part of the code should be a parameter that's passed in to the JS API in order for JS to communicate back to Flash.

For example:
[AS3 code]
ExternalInterface.addCallback("flashCallbackName", processRequest);
ExternalInterface.call("namespace.jsFnToCall", flashCallbackName);
function processRequest(data:String):void {
//do stuff
[Code] .....

Because the definition of the function is in AS, I can't use the window [function name] approach. The only way I can think of is to build the callback in a string and then use the eval() to execute it.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Use ExternalInterface.Call To Call A JavaScript Function To Launch A Lightbox Window?

Jun 22, 2009

I'm trying to use ExternalInterface.Call to call a JavaScript function to launch a lightbox window. So far I have this:

AS3:
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("launchLB", "" + aUrl + "");
JavaScript:
function launchLB(url) {
alert(url);

[Code]....

I get the alert but I can't get the lightbox window to display. When my as code makes the ExternalInterface call I get what looks like a page refresh and a blank browser window.

Flash - Externalinterface.call Won't Call The JavaScript Function - Firefox 3.6

Feb 10, 2011

I have a function defined in JavaScript like so:

function fadeBack() {
alert("fadeBack called");
};

I call that function from my Flash file like so:

import flash.external.*;
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("fadeBack");

This works in both Safari and Chrome, but for some reason Firefox won't ever call the function. Still, I can't figure this out. How can I fix it?

Javascript :: Call A Function At End Of Movie?

Feb 10, 2011

I want to display a Flash video in a popup window, and when the video has finished playing, close the window using a javascript function "closeIt":

<script>
function closeIt() {
alert("About to close...");

[code]....

How can I achieve this? I have imported a video into Flash (choosing "load external video with playback component"). This is in frame1. I thought that in the second frame I could make a call to ExternalInterface.call("closeIt") in the Actions window. I have tried this, but when I publish and view the flash movie in a web brower, I never see the javascript alert.

Javascript :: External - Call A Function By URL

Apr 12, 2011

I have an ActionScript program that I want to access some external JavaScript functions. By external, I mean that the ActionScript/swf aren't going to be loaded via the HTML/JavaScript. Everything I see recommends ExternalInterface, but that seems to imply that your JS loads your swf. Is there a way to call a JavaScript function by URL?
