Professional :: Simulate Download Not Working?
May 11, 2010
I want to check to make sure my preloader is working right, so I'm trying to use the Simulate Download function. At any speed, when I start the simulation, it just sits there, and does nothing. No images, no backgound, nothing. Running the program normally does not produce any problems, it's just when I do the simulation.Now, I think it may just be that I have a gigantic file, but I let it sit there for several minutes, and not a single thing happened -- heck, I have the preloader on frame 2, and a trace on frame 1 that just says "test" to see if it's even getting THAT far, and its not.

I've done two Flash animations, and both, when I use the Simulate Download function, show what appears to be a digital artifact in the upper left hand corner. It looks like a series of small squares or rectangles briefly fluttering from left to right.As far as I can tell, this doesn't show up in the actual .swf. Has anyone else seen this? Is it a sign that I've done something wrong, or should I just ignore it?

I'm using Flash CS5 with AS2. However, there's this project I'm working on right now. When I simulate a download, the preloader is somehow skipped. I'm staring at a blank screen for a minute instead of a preloader and then the main menu pops up. You just see the preloader for one single frame.
Now the code for my preloader is really the standard code:
Actionscript Code:
stop();onEnterFrame = function(){
p = getBytesLoaded()/getBytesTotal();
percent_txt.text = String(Math.round(100*p)) + " %";
if(p == 1){ nextFrame();
delete onEnterFrame;
}}
I have some code on frames 2 and 3, but I tried to see what would happen if I left it out, and the same thing occurs regardless of there being code on frames 2 and 3. All I can really tell you that may mean something is the file size is 2.9 MB. Why Flash Player doesn't just display the preloader, especially since I've never encountered this before.

I'm declaring that there MUST be a bug in importing of XML files to Flash 8 and I will NEVER use it again in this version of Flash.For the third time I have completely re-written the entire code of this movie. And once again, just like the other 2 times, when I run the movie in "Test Movie" all 32 of my text files load and trace perfectly. When I switch to "Simulate Download" a raft of "undefined" text error messages appear when I click on the text field links.There is only one movie running. All variables are declared globally at the beginning of the movie. A preoloader (debugged and verified to be working perfectly) loads all images and XML text and CSS before proceeding. All text is loaded into a single text field dynamically.There is never a problem with undefined images - only text.

One last time and then I abandon this idea of importing XML files forever
I have attached a sample .fla file plus folders with the other files in the Variables not found only on "simulate download" post if you want to try running it.
There are 42 XML text files and 42 buttons on stage. In 'Test Movie' all 42 external XML files load perfectly every time - switch to 'Simulate Download' and keep clicking. It won't take long to "break it" and an 'undefined' will appear. But if you keep clicking, the same text will be defined on the next time around - so this isn't simply a case of the array not being created properly.
This is the frame in the preloader that creates the array that holds the XML files - it loops until they are all loaded - the counter is set and incremented in the other preloader frames:
Code:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
//loops back to load all text
[Code].....
'textNum' will never fail to show the number clicked when 'undefined' appears - but 'textForStage' which is the actual text in the array will show 'undefined' in the output window.

I followed a tutorial on gotoandlearn.com and followed it to a "T," yet cannot troubleshoot this myself. I built a simple preloader in AS2, but when I simulate the download for a Flash website in Adobe Flash CS4, all I see is a white screen, then it continues to the website. I previewed the bandwidth profile and I can see that it's working it's preloading magic; I just can't see the animation.
I looked through numerous forums and I am not using an components that are exported to the first frame -- at least that I know of. Has anyone experienced the same issue?

I was going to download the trial version of Flash Professional CS5.5 but when I got to the download page it wasn't downloading. The "Download now" button was there, but it was unclickable, when I clicked on it it didn't work, plus it was a little dimmer than I remember it was when I downloaded another trial. I'm also using the latest version of Google Chrome and I tried downloading it on IE and Firefox.So, is there any solution to this?

I have a project where I have a main project which loads external .swfs, and those external .swfs in turn load more external .swfs. In my main project, everything works perfectly when I preview using simulate download, but once the .swf is published it doesn't work properly. I'm assuming is has something to do with my main site Preloader, that's why I posted here. I'm pasting the code here and attaching the latest size report.

Due to a Flash bug in CS5 & CS5.5, I've been forced to generate a dialog with straight XUL instead of XUL opening a swf. I'm trying to stylize the textbox textfield to mask the password entered and I'm having issues coming up with a solution for this. It seems the most straight-forward way to mask would be to assign the textfield a strange font which would serve this purpose - like WingDings. However, i'm not sure of the correct way to stylize a textbox via CSS. I'd like to be able to have the CSS inline in the XUL's XML file, similar to how you can have inline script:
<style type="text/css">
.passMask {
font-family:WingDings;
}
</style>
I on the right track or can anyone give me insight on how I might go about accomplishing a password mask in a textbox?

I'm currently enrolled in an ActionScript course, and cannot seem to get my progress bar to work correctly. We were tasked with creating a simple image loader application, which would access externally hosted images (through use of a PHP proxy script), and then spit the image onto the user's screen (with a progress event and progress bar to track the image's download progress).
However, when I run it, I get these mysterious black graphical glitches everywhere, as well as a non-functioning progress bar. In some browsers I get the following error: "ArgumentError: Error #2109: Frame label NaN not found in scene NaN. at flash.display.MovieClip/gotoAndStop() at Document/imageLoadProgress().
Here is my code - I cant for the life of me figure out what is wrong. I figure it has something to do with the imageLoadProgress() function, or my progress bar (which is just a simple 100-frame movie clip with a motion tween and a "stop()" command at the beginning).

I am trying to use fileReference.download to allow users to download content from my site. The problem is, when I test it in Flash, it works flawlessly. When I publish it and upload it to my server it doesn't download. It'll bring up the download box... but it wont initiate the download. What I am doing is dynamically creating text boxes using the amount of XML nodes in my xml file. It will then assign the proper download file to that text box/download button.
its just not initiating the download in my browser.

File Reference ActionScript
import flash.net.FileReference;
var listener:Object = new Object();
listener.onSelect = function(file:FileReference):Void {
trace("onSelect: " + file.name);

I'm using Flash CS5, AS3 to create an .swf that imports an .f4v or .flv that was encoded with Adobe Media Encoder.When I use .flv the video begins playing immediately and downloads progressively. When I use .f4v the video has to download completetly before playing. Considering all things are equal except for encoding the video as either .flv or f4v, what step am I missing that is preventing the .f4v from downloading progressively?

I would like to run the same Flash Pro CS5 created swf twice on a long web page, at the top and bottom, but if possible, to only download it once for each visit. This is easy with static images of course, but can it be done with Flash? I'm thinking likely not, but would love to be mistaken about that.

This has been going on for quite sometime and I've just neverfound any solution. On sites with Flash it asks me to download theplayer. I have the player already, but I download it anyway. Thebox on the Flash site shows that yes, I do have Flash installednow. Then I go back to the site that uses Flash and I'm back to thestart - download Flash Player.I can't understand why if it's on my computer, why the sitekeeps asking me to download it again, yet it shows I do have it onmy computer.I started to use Macromedia Flash 8 Training from the Source,James English, and needed to play Flash in one of the tutorials. Itsent me to the download site. I downloaded, shows the Flashmovement in the sample box that if you have Flash you will see itin the box. I go back to the Flash site and once again - wants meto download Flash.So it's just a continuous circle with no end.

Right now, if someone types in a popup window comes up asking if they want to download the file.I want my swf files (I'm building a site on the Gaia flash framework) to have access to all of my flv's/videos, but I don't want people to be able to download them.e Flash IDE to 'protect' your swfs (though I know there are ways around that) - but for flv's do those have to go in some type of special folder with a .htaccess file to protect them - and if so, how do I let my swf's communicate with the flv's and load them when necessary.
