Professional :: Absolute URLs Not Working When File Is On A Remote Server?
Sep 23, 2010
My client has asked me to provide a template for an investor relations section of their website. The HTML page or template for this page will be at the service providers site, but all the images etc. for the page will be linked to files on my clients server. Everything looks fine, but the absolute URL's in the .swf file back to my clients site aren't working.
This is what the service provider's guidlines say, but I'm not sure where the code is supposed to go:
Similarly, newer versions of the Flash Media Player installed by most users have a high level of security enabled by default. This is done to prevent Flash movies from playing on web pages that are hosted on different domains than the movie itself (again, to combat "phishing" or "spoofing").

Very strange thing has happened. I've had this site running fine for over a year, and recently I have discovered that the buttons that go to external URLs do not work.All of the buttons should be going to another .php file, and they have been until discovered yesterday that they do not.If you go to the .swf file directly, you will see that the navigation buttons take you to the correct .php files, but it becomes unclickable when it's in index.php.VERY strange... but then when you go back to index.php, and click the php active hyperlink "Gum Drops" at the bottom of the page, you'll get taken to the php page... and then all of a sudden the navigation, and all flash links to URLs work!

I have had an SWF running on a HTML page since early 2008, and this SWF pulls down some images from another server - subseqently displaying them for the user.The SWF uses BitmapData to smoothly display the loaded JPG images.However, since the 10.1 update, this no longer works - everything gets drawn blank (when the bitmapdata's .draw() method is invoked).I must point out that this has been working fine for years before the 10.1 update, and the security setup has also been done correctly (the image server has the crossdomain.xml file, and the local SWF file has the relevant Security.allowDomain settings in place).Has anyone else experienced this, or know of a fix? This is driving me nuts, many of our clients who have this SWF in place on their website can no longer see the images after updating to 10.1.

I am trying to upload the files to the remote server using PHP with Flex interface. If it's not localhost, it shows the security error. I have already put the crossdomain.xml in the tomcat web app root directory to allow all the domains. However, the security error is still shown when I tried to upload the file.

I have inserted services.flv into [URL]. I am using Dreamweaver CS4, and all dependent files, including the flash video are present:
Untitled-2.html
services.flv
FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf
[Code].....
I am able to successfully use the "Live View" function within CS4. I am also able to successfully preview within IE and Firefox. I've put all files in the appropriate location on the remote server. All files are in my /wwwroot/, except the two files that are in the Script folder, which is in my root. My domain host claims flv files are supported, and Adobe technical support eperiences the same behavior as I, they can play locally, but not remotely. Adobe technical support claims the cause of the problem is the remote server.

I have been using flash for years deploying video for the web.For the life of me I cannot get my .FLV file to import into Flash from my URL.It's already on the server here is the address.I've always used this method.The only thing that is different is I'm now using GoDaddy to host my site instead of 1and1. http:[url]...........I do have the .F4V locally on my machine but I've never been able to get that to play from the remote server... meaning-
I import .F4V file locally into flash.I create a .swf file and place that in the same folder as the.f4v.I use GoLive to make my webpages.I create my webpage and import my .swf and .flv into the html webpage. It plays great locally on my machine.When I upload everything uploads. When I check it all out online, I get no video.

I want my app (AIR app ported on iOS) to be able to show file located on the remote server and open it with default app (if there's one on device). Is it possible (maybe one can somehow use openWithDefaultApp here)?
UPD: I succeed with downloading (into File.documentsDirectory). I can't force iPad to open downloaded files.
UPD2: I tried to use both openWithDefaultApp and NavigateToUrl.

I have two variables that I would like to store in a remote data file which can be accessed by my Flash file. It is for a voting system, so the first variable would be a counter that is incremented each time a user votes, and the second would be the total rating. The average rating would then be calculated from these.
How would one store, retrieve, and then update these variables from the data file?
I can create the system within a single Flash file for a single session, but obviously I'd like multiple users opening the file simultaneously to be able to access the data and update it.

We have a Flash application provided by a vendor. It reads its parameters from an xml file on our web server's file system. However, it can also be spoofed to read its parameters from an xml file sitting on another domain's web server. At first we thought crossdomain.xml might be able to fix this, but we've researched it and understand the purpose of crossdomain.xml. It won't solve this issue.Are there any ways of enforcing that a Flash application reads its input file only from the same server where the Flash application was served? Or is the recommendation just to initialize variables within the Flash app, not relying on an external file.

I'm doing a test install before we update our old server to 4.03.I've got the server software installed and configured (4.03 server, using iis for web).All the test stuff on the sample index page works, except for the dynamic stream tab.I've eyeballed the .f4m file, and tried putting in a complete url to the samples...but no luck.i just keep getting the stock connection timed out message.
Where do i need to look to start confiriming where this issue may be coming from?I've made made sure I can reach all the test videos by making flash players for them, calling them via rtmp... no problems.It's got to be something dumb with either the f4m file, or the way it's being served (btw, i have added all the mime types to iis , including .f4m as video/mp4....which is one of two ways I've seen it added).

I'm an application developer, and my standard usage of Flash is as follows: I'm creating an executable application, which contains a ShockwaveFlash object instance, which in turn is displaying a Flash Movie Clip - also created by myself. The executable application and the contained Flash clip are communicating via the ActionScript ExternalInterface (using XML strings) and the FSCommand.
I'd like to be able to debug the ActionScript code of the Flash file while I'm running/debugging my executable application. For that, I need to be able to start a remote debugging session from the Flash object running inside my executable. Problem is, I did not find any way of doing this.
When I publish the Flash SWF file with "permit debugging" checked, I'm able to start a remote debugging session when I'm displaying the file in a player or a browser (the "debugging" option is shown at the right-click menu of the Flash object), but I'm not able to do the same with the object inside my executable (the "debugging" option doesn't exist on the menu).
Environment Details: The executable application is using the ShockwaveFlash COM file to create the ShockwaveFlash object. The executable application is created using VB.NET, Visual Studio 2008, .NET 3.5. The Flash SWF file is created using Adobe Flash Professional CS4. I'm developing under Windows XP (SP3).

Working with loadvars can be frustrating if your calling vars from [URL]and testing them by navigating to "website.com/getVars.php". Flash will not load vars accross a domain (cause your missing the www) without adding a policy file. There are a couple ways around this:
1) Don't use absolute paths when working with loadvars.The issue here is testing locally and on the web, you can't load vars from getVars.php locally if you're web server is generating the file with a database...
2) Force your users to include www. before the domain name.I work for a tv network and I'm finishing up 4 flash sites that all use loadvars and I felt like writing a script that would work for all of them, instead of one for each site. The following is the result, and I thought I would share it with the faithful kirupa nerds.
<script language="javascript">
var thisURL = "" + window.location;
var WWW = (thisURL.indexOf("www"));
var dissect = thisURL.split("/");
[code]....
I compressed (and actually made the code more scalable) from 23 lines to 6

The instructions for installation only cover installation on "localhost". I'm wondering if I could use the development server for a small scale website depolyment with restricted traffic, from a commercial server, such as goDaddy?And if so, what''s the method? Do I download the package from Adobe to my local hard drive and install over the network, or copy the package to the server and install it online?

I found a very useful AIR remote updater [URL] written by Claus Wahlers. It works fine but I have a question which I myself can't figure it out. Just a newbie in flash I guess. Question: What if the script can't find yourapplication.air inside my domain.com host? What will happen? I have tested it out. It appears that the script keep on running to find yourapplication.air inside my server. But it is not there. How do I make a timeout when if there is no such "yourapplication.air" file in the server / it will skip the update process?

As a subscriber of live stream how do I get absolute stream time since it is published? Consider the case, a publisher has published a live stream at 0 seconds. It has been 100 seconds past since the live stream is published. A new subscriber comes to fms and subscribers a live stream. It starts playing that live stream but NetStream.time property will start from 0 instead of 100. Is there any way or configuration (in fms) which allows subscriber to get absolute stream time?

I'm using the RTMFP protocol to publish and play video and audio, but i'm with a little problem. I installed the FMS 4 Development Server in a Windows Server machine located in our local network and it works perfectly. In order to deploy our application, we have a remote server with a fresh install of the Ubuntu 10.04 Server, and the FMS 4 installed in this server. In other server we have the Java and Flex application, which will be used in the client browser.
The problem is that when trying to change the NetConnection url to the remote FMS server, which is the Ubuntu server, the netconnection can't connect to it. When changing to the RTMP protocol it connects, but with the RTMFP don't. I can't find any information in the log files or anything else.

I am writing a game where positions of an object are being exchanged between the two flash clients through a java server. The secnario goes simply like this:
PlayerA ---> Server : "Position X + Position Y+
"
Server ---> PlayerB: "Position X + Position Y+
"
and it works both ways of course.the problem here is that on my computer where i use "localhost" everything is fine and the data is exchanged seamlessly .. when I loaded the server on a remote host the message received strangely turns into something like "Position X + NaN" (i.e. the y position is wrongly parsed by the server), what is weird even more, is that sometimes, the message gets parsed correctly..the server is wrote in java and it is exactly the same source code that works on my machine that fails over the internet
