Professional :: Changing Meta Tags And Description On SWF?
Feb 22, 2010
I bought a template, made some changes, published it and upload it on FTP. But each time I do a search, one one the search results is one of the orignal page names. Any tips on how to change it?
I designed my friends site entirely in Flash, but now want to add things like meta tags. I've done extensive searching and found the best (or only) way to do this is to open my index.html page in dreamweaver or textedit and add them there. Sounds easy enough but when I open my html page to look at the code I get this error: // Provide alternate content for browsers that do not support scripting // or for those that have scripting disabled. Alternate HTML content should be placed here. This content requires the Adobe Flash Player. Get Flash. I have Flash Player installed.
I need to publish it to web so if you go url... you see my flash website (I'm using Flash CS5).I heard from somewhere I need Dreamweaver, also, to publish a site made in Flash to the web.
Is there any way I can embed HTML in flash? I know I can do this with text boxes but is there any other way I can do it? If not I know theres is the load feature where I can load text from a text file. With the html text box editing, Can i link that to the text file?. As in when you edit the text box with html could i have the textbox's instance name equal to the text file? With this my issue is with the <a href> in one textbox, I would like when i click those it open another text file in a different text box.
Clarification: I have two text boxes in my flash file.One has current products. And the other is the description of the product they select. I would like a way to edit and change the products in the first text box without having to keep using the FLA file. Which is why i am using this code
var myTextLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); myTextLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoaded); function onLoaded(e:Event):void {trace(e.target.data);} myTextLoader.load(new URLRequest("myText.txt"));
The contents of myText.txt are <a href=(not sure what to put here)> Product 1 </a> But all that does is put it in the text output section in flash.It does not show it in flash. I need help getting it to show up in a text box.That is the first part But the main problem is im not sure how to code the a href correctly so that when i click it, another text file opens in the second text box.So that when a user clicks on a product ,like "Product 1" It opens the correct description text file in the second text box.
I have spend my whole day trying to find a good way to access ID3 tags in AS3.0;In my project I am making a sound object and assigning it a URL: Then I stream the sound into a sound channel:[code]I want to read the ID3 tag somehow and display the artist name or anything in the ID3 tag, onto the screen.I Have the URL change through user input, and naturally I want to update all the information with the new ID3 tags information.[code]
I want to read Meta tag information of a video file like Artist,Album,Year,etc.... I tryed "onMetaData" for a video file.But i didnt get information like rtist,Album,Year,etc... The video file can be mp4,avi,mpg,mov. I dont want them to play in swf... I just want to load the file and show the meta tag information as text. For audio files i can get id3 information after loading the song.But is there any other way to get them with out loading the sound? Each loading will take time to give the result.
I want to create a server script that will reply with the meta of a specified stream. This is for a player I have that really needs meta, but I hate having to start playing the video to get it. Is this possible? What calls does the server need to do to fetch and transmit the meta?
I am writing a flex3 tool for our uber-geeks. The tool is for futzing around with sharing URLs to various various social sites.
private function submitRequest(evt:Event):void { var requestURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest(constructURL()); requestURL.method=URLRequestMethod.POST;
[Code].....
I can call an external javascript function that will do a post, but however the XmlHttpRequest infrastructure only want to setRequestHeader(key,value), and seems to need to be from a very specific list of strings. setRequestHeader("foo","bar") did not add a foo header in my outgoing request.
There does not seem to be a way to add the header meta tag. via javascript. Or at lease I am not finding it off of google.
I'd like to be able to resize the stage according to the size (and aspect ratio) of the video - to do this so far I've been trying by using an external function call to javascript:
As you can see it happens on meta load, and in order to do that I have to attach the net stream, start playing the video to load the meta data, and then pause it:
Code: ncConnection = new NetConnection(); ncConnection.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, netStatusHandler); ncConnection.connect(null);
[code].....
What's happening is the player loads up at it's original size, and then with a jolt is resized as required, but responsiveness and load time of the video is very bad and hangs the browser quite easily...
1) Is there some sort of threaded pre-load I can use so that the video doesn't load with such a jolt and the responsiveness of the player isn't compromised
2) is there a way of obtaining the meta data of the video without loading it fully?
I'm trying to figure out a way to alter a path to an image that is in a meta tag. It's for a facebook share button, and I'd like the ability to change the thumbnail image that is sent to facebook depending on where the user is in my flash file. The link itself is sent from flash no problem but I'd like to update this meta tag Code: <link rel="image_src" href="[URL]" / > First somehow (not sure if PHP is the answer or flashvars or what) and then send the link. I attempted to just add all the facebook meta data to a php file that had a redirect link to the facebook share but it didn't like that hack. So basically I need to alter the meta tag on the current page and send the link from flash.
I want to get the meta from an FMS server and start buffering (really I just want the first frame). Is there any way to do this other than calling play() and waiting for meta to call pause?
I have a flash site which reads deep links from the URL, then using c# asp.net we read the url and write the appropriate meta tags for the page being requested. [code]...
I am communicating to an external server via a URLLoader and receiving the following warning: Warning: Domain domain name does not specify a meta-policy.Applying default meta-policy 'master-only'.This configuration is deprecated.
The provided link redirected me to another page, which didn't really explain how to remove this warning. It looks like it might involve modifying the crossdomain.xml file on the server, but I'm not sure exactly how. how to remove this warning?

I've been trying to embed some svg files into an AS3 project using the Embed meta tag. For example:
[Code]...
However when displaying these files as Sprites only some of the gradients are surviving the embeding process. From what I've found simple (2 step) horizontal gradients seem to stand the best chance of being preserved, but sometimes other kinds of gradients are as well. In one case simply rotating an object 90 degrees causes the gradient to vanish when displayed in flash. Does anyone know a rough set of rules to use when creating svg gradient fills so they are preserved when rendered in flash? BTW: I used Inkscape to create the images in question.
Update: Bizarrely the solution to this seems to be setting the opacity of any object in the svg file whose gradient isn't displayed properly to a value below 1. Don't ask me why this works but it does. It does however have the unwanted side effect of the objects edges not being rendered as smoothly.
I have an ActionScript project set up using the Flash Builder IDE. Using the Flex 4 compiler to compile it. At the top of my application class, I have:
[SWF(width="100%", height="100%")] public class MediaPlayer extends MovieClip {
This is not acceptable to the compiler to do a release (it throws errors saying it can't parse the width/height values). Pretty annoying. I've tried to do things the "right" way, but none of the following work:
[Code]...
So the width and height attributes are being explicitly set to numbers here. I don't know much about the 'scale' attribute; maybe it is coming in to play here? And, to be clear: it will work as expected if I set the [SWF] meta tag to have width "100%" and height "100%"... so it seems like it actually is preferring the compiled arguments over the browser environment. Perhaps there are other settings I am missing?
I have the 3dwall feature - but i don't know how to add a title/description to the image. I have followed the instructions, - I don't understand what it is asking me to do.
how can I make a windows popup when I put my mouse cursor over a item? The popup should display the item name and it's characteristics. When the cursor rolls out fo the item, the popup windows disappears.
I've modified a flash movie that displays images in a slider control. When the user mouses over the image I display a tooltip. The problem is I cannot figure out how to parse the Description(desc) out of the image tag in XML to display as the tooltip text. Heres what I want the image tag to look like:[code]In the actionScript how could I simply parse out the description to pass in as the tooltip text?
