I have a game that will work better in Flash Player 11 (with Molehill) but also works in 10.3. I'd like to get players to automatically update to 11 with express install as much as possible (after it's released, of course), but don't want to force them.I tried this way of embedding it with SWFObject:
swfobject.embedSWF(
// url
"game.swf?version=1",
[code]....
I know only basic html and no javascript. I just found this embed code somewhere and It works good except It won't prompt the user to update if user has lower version of flash!The second piece of code is some code i use for regular embedding. This version updates user's flash content if needed.I have tried to incorporate those two to make the first version have the update function but I'm sitting for hours at my comp and can't figure it out since my html and java knowledge is very poor.[code]

View 1 RepliesI am deploying Updates via SCUP and SCCM to hundreds of Computers. Fortunately Adobe provides an SCCM Update Catalog for both Adobe Flash ActiveX and Adobe Flash Plugin. But now my Problem: After publishing the Update via SCCM, the client is not supposed to be interfered with the Update Progress (which is working) I figured the Updater works like this: First SCCM checks if a Update needs to be deployed, if this is the case, The Flash Updater begins. First the old Flash Version is beeing uninstalled. But now: if the Client has a Browser Window (IE, or Firefox) open, the Updater is not able to install the new Flash Version and quits with an Error. This leaves the Client PC without any Flash (because its being uninstalled before) How can I prevent Flash being uninstalled due to the Update progress not working while a Browser window is open?
View 1 RepliesI'm integrating a Flash-free web site with Facebook Connect.Loading it in Internet Explorer 7 (only in IE 7, not IE 6 nor IE 8) I get the famous IE information bar saying that the current web site requires the Adobe Flash Player and asks me if I want to install it.
If I remove the code needed to the Facebook Connect integration (some facebook-hosted javascript files), IE does not ask me to install Flash anymore.As I've already said my web site does not require Flash at all and with IE 6, IE 8, Firefox or any other browser I'm not asked to install the Adobe Flash Player.Is this normal? Does Facebook Connect require Flash? Does it need Flash only with IE7?
I'm attempting to create a top-down TRON light-cycle style game in Flash CS5, working in AS3. I've been looking into having a player-controlled sprite (a UIComponent) leave a trail as it moves across the screen, avoiding other lines and trying to get to the "exit". The player-controlled sprite will be controlled by the keyboard.I've looked at "snake" games to try to sort out the best way to do this, but I'm not sure that it's the best base to start from.

View 1 RepliesHow many instances of Video, NetStream and NetConnection would be needed for multiple videos? Not sure that's the right question but essentially here's the objective:
Currently, I'm working on an interactive product tour, parts of which are to consist of short video clips, each covering a feature. While only one such clip will be playing at any given time, I'd like put them all at the application's fingertips as part of the initial preloading process before launching into it. The idea is to provide a seamless instant-play user experience without hitting the breaks before individual segments.

I've got a movieclip, which has got a dynamic text element.The movieclip uses a package for its codeThe package if obviously derived from the MovieClip classI've got a timer, that updates the dynamic text field every second.When debugging the code, I see that the timer works well. Its updates the value of the dynamic text field.
View 2 RepliesI built a simple jpg comp click-through as a software demo, and inserted flash movies to simulate interative buttons (hover styles basically). I am using the SWFobject script to load the swfs, and they render properly. However, they seem to need a single click within the swf to "activate" them. This not the IE click to activate issue. They look correct. They just don't interact with the mouse until I have clicked inside the SWF once. This has the effect of making all the button require a double-click to work, and means that when I hover on them, they do not animate until after I have clicked inside.
This only seems to happen in Firefox... FF 3.6.3 and Flash Player 10,0,45,2
I have been trying to embed fonts for a program for the last couple of days. I have found many places that explain how to do it, but none of them have worked. I am wondering, do I have to use Flex SDK to embed fonts?I need to embed 18 fonts in a program, and I have even tried adding 18 textFields off of the stage, each with text in one of the 18 fonts and embeding the fonts via the properties panel. That doesn't seem to work either

I have a site where I want to restrict the user from moving forward unless they have visited certain pages. So if you visit page 1, 2, & 3, then a button appears that lets you move forward. I have this working using buttons. See Example: boolean.zip
However what I need to have happen, is instead of having it check to see if you visited the page by clicking a button, I would like it to check if you visited a frame just be going to that frame. I am not sure how to do that.

I tried SwfObject for loading swf on a website. It is all good with webkit and mozila based browsers but not with IE.[URL].. In IE 8 the footer not loading, it like crashes after the swf loads. In IE 7 the player not working, so the footer loads.
