Professional :: Calling JavaScript From A Swf In Wordpress
Mar 10, 2012
Just started using wordpress for my site after years of standard HTML and hit a problemwith an old Flash file I've usedfor 10 years.So I have a flash 6 swf file living in my media directory at URL...and the swf file wants to call a JavaScript function on my HTML page living at URL...Now on my old non-wordpress web site I just put the html and swf file in the same directory and this call always worked javascript:top.fSendForm()But now the swf file is in another location I don't know how to reference my JavaScript function.

I'm trying to embed a .swf into a wordpress page. This sounds simple, but it isn't working and I cannot fathom out why. I've uploaded all the relevant files onto the server, and I'm fairly sure all the filepaths are correct. The folder containing the .fla and .swf files also contained an index.html file, which I have put into a template. I've tried putting the supplied code into the HTML on the page, I've tried simply using said template, and the best I'm getting is a blank area which doesn't load the flash content.

I'm trying to call a javascript function from within my swf and I'm having a couple of problems which are confussing me somewhat. I'm using this to call the function from flash:
ExternalInterface.call("pgcover"); I know that this is calling the function as I have set it trigger an alert action and this comes up properly. But I don't want the function to trigger an alert, this is just for testing purposes. I instead want it to change the styling on a div. I have set up a test page where I have asigned the function to a button and this works, the div display changes from block to none. When I get the swf to call the function setup to do the same thing, nothing happens.

I have what I think is an easy question but I am having problems with it... Using AS2 / CS3, I am calling a javascript function from Flash, but i would like the value to be a variable and I cant figure out how to do it. the started code is below and I need direction on how to make "myVar" actually a variable.
var myVar = newValue_txt.text;
btnOne.onRelease = function() { getURL("javascript:testFunction('myVar') ");
}
this is a stripped down version of what i am trying to do, but i think it gets the main point across.

let suppose i have a object named "data" which has a callBack function named "closeItem" which does something. So i have flash file which has a close button. on click of that i am calling this function which closes this item. So issue is? If i pass this "closeItemFunction" as global function this works fine. but if a pass this function as a "data.closeItem" this doesn;t work throwing some falsh error. so i just wanna ask that "does flash only call gobal scoped javascript function" ??

I currently designed a website for my client in wordpress with rotating banner headers. The website theme is space and astronomy, hence my client wanted banners about space shuttles and galaxies etc. I have been able to do this .. but with one small hitch the banners are in the size of 50-70 KB each. You can check out the website at -[URL] What I wanted to know is
1. Is there a wordpress plugin which installs adobe flash on the website?
2. Will making the banners in flash reduce the load time?
3. Will using flash affect the user experience as I believe many mobile brosers and iPad's do not support flash?

I am refactoring some code. I have a PHP page that contains a MySQL query and stores the result in a PHP variable $my_result. This result is then echoed to a Flash SWF during embedding with SWFObject. I now want to call this PHP page that makes the query from a javascript function like so - one change I have made to the PHP is that instead of storing the result in a variable $my_result I am echoing the result. Javascript function to call the PHP page and make the database query

I have a Javascript API, which should be usable with GWT and Flex. Using the FABridge it is really easy to call Javascript methods from AS3 and vice versa. But when I try to register a callback to an AS3 method in my Javascript API I get stuck. Here is a short code sample:

So my team's project has an swf embedded in JavaScript, we're actually using java servlet's to create the html/JavaScript. I am attempting to use as3's ExternalInterface to add a callback which would get called in the javascript but everything I have tried will not work.[code]so if there is a missing tag or something that's probably not my problem. NOTE I embed this correctly and get into the swf allowing it to call javascript functions(as3 calls the getStuff fn), using the ExternalInterface, which works but JS->as3 does NOT work ='I cant use the movie object for anything (the return value of getFlashMovie), if I try to use no code after works.The action script code calls the external interface addCallback function correctly(called in a try catch that's how I know)[code]The only things I can think of;
1) The embed code isnt creating the object correctly, since I cant use the movie for anything
2) my swf is being created weird and doesnt allow script access.We are using FlashBuilder to build the swf.

I'm trying to call a function declared with ExternalInterface in a Flash swf, using JavaScript.It worked once, but all of a sudden, it stopped working.I have a debug version of the Flash Player, but no errors occur in Flash.Not even a "Security Sandbox Error" or something. The only error I get is the following error in JavaScript Error: Error in Actionscript. Use a try/catch block to find error.I'm using AS3, exporting for Flash Player 10 and testing on Firefox 3/Safari 4, on a Mac.

I got two AS3 functions. One that toggles fullscreen and one that is called with javascript with ExternalInterface that only logs "Hello World". Both works well in the browser, but if I try to call the fullscreen function with javascript the same way, i get an error like this: Error calling method on NPObject! I googled that problem but that only had something to do with same domain access, and sinced it worked with the other function, it has to be something else.

I have a page that has a JavaScript element that I want to activate with AS3. The page is currently residing at:[URL]l if you click on the right side of the green bar it changes to blue. Now there is a <a class="right"/> that is being applied via JavaScript to the document. What I need to do is activate the class/right from Inside a swf. What I have below is the code that I put together for AS3 that I was using to attempt to call the external link.I have used AS3 before, the main body navigation on www.last7studios.com was created entirely using AS3. This is just my first attempt doing anything like this.
ActionScript Code:
import flash.text.TextField;
import flash.events.TextEvent;

we are currently working with a tv site (flash) in which we have included 3 buttons , mini , standard and fullscreen.Mini will resize the browser window into a smaller size , while standard will resize it to the maximum available width and height.The fullscreen will play the video in fullscreen which is a new flash 9 feature.
The mini and standard buttons actually invokes a javascript function which resides in the flash container html page.The javascript code contains the satement window.Resizeto .The problem we are facing is that the functionality seems to behave inconsistently in IE.In IE 6 ,all the 3 buttons works perfectly.But once we touch the scrollbar , then the mini and standard wont work , it shows a javascript "access denied error".This error does not appear when the wmode in flash object tag is made transparent.But if wmode is made transparent , fullscreen wont work.This is given in adobes website.There is no problem in mozilla firefox .In IE7 we have the same problem as in IE6, apart from this mini and standard does not work at ALL when multiple tabs are open.I would like to know if thr is any way we could overide the javascript error and why does the error not appear when wmode is made is transparent ?

I have a swf that opens up inside a colorbox window. When the video finishes playing, I make an externalinterface call to a javascript function to close the colorbox.I'm trying to execute the following AS3 code:
ExternalInterface.call('parent.$.fn.colorbox.close()')
I can't seem to get this to work. The colorbox won't close.I also tried this to see if I was just making the wrong function call, but this didn't work either: ExternalInterface.call ('alert("hello world")')However, if I browse to the url of the swf file, so that it doesn't open inside the colorbox, the alert() call works just fine.

I am trying to call a custom method of an embedded flash like so:
var flash =
navigation_get_flash_movie_object('main');
if (flash) {
flash.continentOut(id); }
Which works great in Chrome ans Safari, but fails utterly in IE7 & IE8. The browsers throws an error that the object doesn't have such a method.
I am using the example from [URL], and now that I've tested it, it also fails at it's testing page as well [URL]

Making a flash video streaming web-app using Actionscript 3's external Api. I am at a very rudimentary phase of the project where we're just experimenting with external interface. Right now i just have a flash object and 3 buttons each to play pause and load a video. The only button that is currently set up to do anything is the load button. My swf and my html file sit on the same file system, and my video files sit on another server with traffic being redirected through a media server.When i press the load button, which should just give it the path of the video file on it's server. Instead it throws an error that reads "Error: Error Calling method on NPObject". [code]I've read in a lot of places that this is an issue with security, but both my swf and html are in the same folder on my local machine. Only the files come from outside, and in any case I think i've set the security settings correctly when i declare my flash player in the object tag, but maybe i'm missing something there.if you can't solve my question directly can someone please explain what "error calling method on NPObject" means? I'm sure its specific to flash-js communications because i've never seen it before and that's what i have gathered from my googling.

I have a SWF that is used to load other swf to it.
each of the loaded swf files has its own button events that try to access javascript functions. The problem is that they can't access the javascript. It never gets to call the functions.
If i run those swf on their own then it works..
what should i do do have embedded swfs to call javascript methods ?
