Professional :: CS3 - Run Swf From Browser?
Jan 12, 2010
I have a swf that uses actionscript 3.0 to drag and drop images, activate buttons that run movie clips and manage the display list. It runs flawlessly when I execute it directly (i.e. double-click the swf), but I want to publish it on the web -- so I used File -> Publish to create the necessary html file, but when I run it in a browser (I've only tried IE) the initial screen looks perfect, but none of the buttons and drag and drop features work. Also,when I run the swf using File -> Publish Preview, it fails exactly the same way if I choose HTML, but works perfectly if I choose Flash.I created a pared-down version of the fla (see the code below) to try to isolate the problem, and the behavior is exacly the same.I'm attaching the swf and html files for the pared-down version.
- actionscript 3.0 code -----import flash.display.StageDisplayState;import flash.display.Scene;import [code].....

After searching the internet I found myself back here for the right answer. I've updated an swf for a client andin IE it won't reload without clearing the cache files. I know this is a common problem, but I couldn't quit figure out the best way to go about fixing it. I'd like to just add some actionscript to the swf if possible.

I have created a short (6 seconds) SWF movie with Adobe Flash Professional CS5 that I would ultimately like to show in the header of my siteWhen I double click the SWF file on my desktop it works just fine. When I upload it to my website (or any other SWF host for that matter) and click the absolute URL it does not play (in any browser).I suspect that the file isn't ready for web publishing. Essentially, during the creation of the SWF file, I did the following:Made a short movie in Adobe Premiere CS5 which I saved as f4vI used the Import Wizard in Adobe Flash CS5 to import the f4vExported the movie as SWFThis results in a stand-alone SWF which works fine when double-clicked on the desktop, but not in any browser once uploaded.Alternatively, instead of exporting I have tried to publish the file, which doesn't allow for the SWF file to play in a browser either

I used the publish feature of flash but it does not seem to center the SWF in the browser. Why is there a centering feature on the publish settings under HTML tab if it does not center the SWF? It only works if you set Dimensions to Percent but that exposes the area beyond the stage and i don't want it to be seen. In addition that causes some movieclips to be improperly positioned. The Flash Alignment should have been disabled if the Dimensions is not set to Percent. Perhaps a simple script that centers my swf file in a browser..

The following swf file does not render properly in many versions of IE on various Windoze platforms, but does on others and in my Mac OS Snow Leopard on Safari and almost correctly (small error) in FF:

The following swf file does not pull up the assets at least in my Mac OS Snow Leopard on FF but does do so in Safari. Also same problem on IE 8 on either Vista or XP (think Vista):

That same swf file, embedded in a really stripped down plain Jane html doc as follows, does not render anything in Mac OS Snow Leopard with FF but has no problem in Safari:

I have setup a Flash viewer in a HTML Div container. In the Flash I have put a button which, when clicked, launches a new browser window with another site I've done to appear in. When I test this in Flash its working fine and launches the new window as it should. But when I go into Dreamweaver where I have placed the Swf. in the Div container, I test it locally in a Firefox browser window. The viewer appears and it works correctly, but when I click the button to launch the new browser window it just opens a window with an error msg 'unable to connect, etc'.

I'm new at Flash so my code understanding is very limited. For my 1st site I tried to make a very simple site which would float in the center of the browser, but my site is centered and stuck at the top below the browser.
1. How do I get it centered both vertical & horizontal?
2. How do I edit the placement position in design mode without having to go into code?
My site address is [URL] I'm sure I have more code then is needed because I started with a sample file and tried to delete unneeded parts.

I have a problem with a swf file which will not play in web browser.It played fine until I updated my site.I tried typing the absolute path to the swf file in the browser address bar and found it straight away. When I clicked on it the screen stayed blank.I checked the path to the file and the flv file was relative to the document and not the site.
swf plays fine in flash player, flash, and locally on dreamweaver.I moved the swf up the file tree and changed the links accordingly but still would not play.I also tried saving it as a new swf from flash, but that doesn't play either.I added another swf to the containing folder and that played fine in the browser.When I open the fla file in flash it only shows a flv playback movie, not the elements, I think this is because it was created in after effects.Here is the link to the containing folder, the swf file is Home_page_movie_V2.swf

I have a campus map at The swf is very tall and you have to scroll down to get to some navigational buttons at the bottom which load swf of other campus maps into the top left corner of the parent.The problem is...even though the movies load without a problem, the browser is still scrolled down to the bottom of the page and the user has to scroll back up to see the maps.

Firstly i am not sure if this is the correct forum, basically i have updated my flash movie on my website, and the updates have taken effect in mozilla and google chrome, however in IE 7 & 8 the old flash movie still displays. I get this is down to the cache and i have tried several code snippets to correct this but nothing seems to make a difference.Is there anything that i can do with the flash code to force the browsers to reload the the movie each time they visit?

Had FF4.0.12 then your forum told me to try FF3.6.17. Just made problems worse. Downloaded updates 5 days ago to Adobe and Firefox and things went haywire. Computer hangs-must do hard reboot. Could not maneuver on Facebook-hangs, cursor hangs, kicked out of games. Now cannot get into any of my games. I need to know if they are going to work together. Is there something I need to do? Another plugin I should be using?

I made changes to the file and attempted to load it into my browser (IE) but it only loads the file from before I made the changes. I published the file and even cleared my cache. I double checked the location and it looks fine.

I created a Flash interface that links to a bunch of PDFs. I'm currently using the "GetURL, _blank" function to open the PDFs, which opens them in a browser window. Is there a way to "tell" the PDF to open in Acrobat instead of a browser window?

Can a SWF file, viewed locally in a folder on my PC, make a call to a function in a JavaScript file?I am facing a project where the technical architect is prescribing that all content exist in an all-in-one, giant JavaScript file. With my usual external content experience working with XML, I have always been able to load in XML into the SWF directly (for example, while viewing the SWF in the Flash authoring environment - a very speedy way to view your SWF), as well as when the SWF is actually viewed in the website. However, with the JavaScript approach, my only experience tells me that the SWF has to be embedded in HTML before it has access to the JS functions.

How is it that my swf files are suffering from browser incompatibilities? How do I rectify the situation? I'm frankly surprised to encounter this issue, since I would have thought a swf file would be generated such that it wouldn't have these problems. Here are two examples;
http:[url]...
This works fine in Safari, but not in my Mac version of FF (latest of both). In the latter the swf files don't ever display. It works well in (I believe) IE 7 for Windoze but not in IE 8 for Windoze. In the latter it never goes to the index page from the preloader, and when I surf there directly, it doesn't display the swf that "covers" (then disappears from) the main template page, which also has a swf, and in the latter swf one of the graphics never loads.http:[url]...
This swf plays differently on all sorts of different browsers. On some, such as my Safari, it plays exactly as desired. In my FF, the hands momentarily disappear. In certain Windoze/IE configurations, it gets all screwed up and looks awful.What is going on inside the swf files that it displays so differently, and how do I counteract these problems?

Does anyone know of a way to get Flash CS5 for Windows to preview an animation in a secondary browser?
Dreamweaver CS5 lets you specify a browser as a secondary browser -- pressing Ctrl+F12 launches it. In Flash, however, F12 and Ctrl+F12 both launch the primary browser...

I've created a couple of flash animations, fairly simple, but the whole relies on loading external swf files and then unloaing them.
The base file works fine, loads the externals and unloads them (although I need to preven the user from hitting the unload button when there is nothing to unload) and will then load another just fine, IF I run it directly from my file system.
I want it to be on a web page, but when you click the button to load the external files, nothing happens. Safari tells me it cannot find the file, and I'm using the exact same directory to test.
So, works fine when testing with flash (CS4) and running directly from the directory in finder, but from a web page, it cannot find the file.

I have an FLV file, provided by the videographer. I put in a folder for the web. By looking at my other FLV files, they have support files included (a SWF for the skin, and a SWF for the player, along with an HTML page where it is embedded on).So, as this FLV file did not have these support files, I have copied and pasted the others to go with my new FLV. What else do I need to do to make it play on the HTML page on the web?I checked the code on the HTML page, and it merely calls up one of the SWFs so should be OK with that.Do I need the videographer to give me a FLA where the movie was imported to, or is this not necessary? I'm wondering if I need the FLA so that I can re-define the content path? Is this the only thing I need to get all components to work together and play in the browser?

I am very new to flash ads and we are on a new platform after a website redesign. I'm having trouble with flash display settings I'm guessing since the ad displays fine in IE, but not fine in Firefox and Chrome. Images to follow (for the curious it is a YWCA ad):
Here you see overlap on the current version of Firefox.
This ad has wings! Current version of Chrome.
This is IE. What? IE is right and the other browsers aren't? What gives!?
Additional details: The position is a plugin position for Wordpress. The ad is being placed via Ad-minister with the following code:

I've created a Flash file that reads from several different xml files and displays them when requested. When I run the Flash player, (by pressing Command-Space within Flash), it all works flawlessly. But when I open it within a browser, only one of the xml files loads, the other two just spin away on the preloader.I have another Flash file that is doing the same thing. A click on a scrolling new list should take you to another web page. In Flash Player it works fine, but from a Browser nothing happens

So I recently got a new laptop. It came installed with Windows 7 64-bit and Internet Explorer 8. However, after installing the current Flash Player update, IE started freezing. I would open certain pages, and the browser would become unresponsive, leading me to end the program. I would try it again, and still the same result. The culprits were always the same, hotmail and tvshowsondvd, among others. Internet Explorer 9 was released a few days later, so I uninstalled IE8 and installed IE9.
The browser worked fine for a few days, but then it started to do it all over again, with the same web pages! Then I noticed something, all these pages were heavy in flash objects. So I tried uninstalling Flash Player 10 and guess what, it started working! No more problems loading pages. I can no longer view flash objects, especially on YouTube. I haven't had the problem since, but I need Flash Player installed.

I've run into a troubling issue where using the NetStream class is causing odd video playback behaviour, major disk query issues, and also leading to my browsers crashing (tested on FireFox 3.5.X, IE 8, and Safari 3/4 with Flash plugin 10,0,42,34). I tested the issue on a Macbook as well and noticed the same thing, so it wasn't something specific to my machine. I wrote a basic Flex application to test this. I make a NetConnection to my web server. When successful, I create a NetStream to playback the video (F4V encoding of Big Buck Bunny). Immediately in Windows Performance Monitor, I can see the Disk queue jump to 100%. The video eventually pauses for a lengthy period of time. Sometimes the browser also becomes unresponsive at this time, and in other cases it will crash. If the video does eventually resume (disk querying reduces a bit), I experience odd behaviour with the video. If I pause the video (NetStream.pause()), when I resume the video (NetStream.resume()), the video begins to fast-forward to make up for the amount of time lost while the video was paused. So if I paused the video for 10 seconds, Flash will fast-forward in 1-second intervals through 10 seconds worth of video. During this time, NetStream will constantly dispatch buffering end and buffering full events.
What's odd is that the problem doesn't seem to happen when I add an additional arument in the play command. NetStream.play(url) will cause the issue, but NetStream.play(url, 0) will not. However, this doesn't always work. My own player, which has a lot more interface controls and complex logic, still suffers from the problem, despite that I'm not doing anything with the NetStream object.
