Professional :: Pass Querystring Value To Swfobject And Set It In Adobe Flash?
Sep 13, 2011
I have a flash slideshow on my homepage which displays news by a xml file underand I am using slideshowpro for it. That slideshow xml file path must be set within adobe flash program.What I need in here, when a language is changed from language selector at header, News must be set as selected language respectively. My question is how to get querystring value and pass it to adobe flash so it is changed and set according to the selected language.
var flashvars = { var params = { bgcolor: "#000000", allowfullscreen: "true", wmode:"transparent", var attributes = {} swfobject.embedSWF("swf/slideshowpro.swf", "flashcontent", "550", "400", "10.0.0", false,
This is driving me nuts... Based on my research I should be able to pass QueryString parameters directly to a swf object like so: [URL] In the mxml oncreationcomplete method I have tried the following:
I am trying to take a PHP variable and pass it along to Flash via Flash vars. My end goal is to pass a string formatted as XML to Flash, but because I'm struggling I've stripped everything down to the basics. I'm just trying to pass a simple PHP string variable to Flash via FlashVars with SWFObject but something isn't right. The page won't load when I try to pass the variable inside of php tags, but it will load if I just pass a hard coded string. The basic structure of my page is that I have some PHP declared at the top like so:[code]How do I pass a PHP variable using SWFObject and FlashVars?
i am wanting to know how much I can be sure that users of my website will not be able to pass bogus variables to my Flash movie. Basically I will have some features available to certain users and I realise that for the average user they will not know anything about how to send spoof vars but is it possible for someone to change the variables sent using SWFObject when a page loads and thus be able to use the functionality that I am trying to disable for them.I have a PHP (my_flash_movie.php) page that calls a function from an included globals.php file to determine if the user can see the restricted functionality is_ user_a_subscriber($_SESSION['user_id']); which returns 1 or 0. This 1 or 0 is then passed to Flash which enables or disables certain features. I dont want someone to be able to send a 1 instead of a 0 basically. This isnt a site where security is critical and the functionality that is disabled is not really critical either so wouldnt be too bad if this happened but im just curious about this and wondering if I should think of another way to pass these vars that might be more hidden.
I have a flash component calling an external xml file configurable via the component inspector (I mean the location of the xml file). What I need is to pass the xml location as a flashvar variable from the html code. When I debug my flash, I can see the xml variable as Variable _level0. myBook.extXML = "URL...So, I am trying to add the flashvar to swfobject as so.addParam("flashVars","extXML=sample.xml"); //any xml what i need.It does not work and does not pass the variable.
I'm trying to pass a random string to multipe swf files using SWFObject 2.0 I'm able to pass the string to one file, but it wont pass to any other object (even if i remove the object that it works on, the string wont pass to the others )
In my machine I have installed only Adobe Flash CS5 proffesional trial version. Now this installation is not supporting adobe.utils.Extension class in this version. I have tried with all latest updates from adobe site. My doubt is does adobe.utils.Extension class is available in licensed version of Adobe Flash CS5 proffesional?
I need to pass multiple flash vars into my swf -- I see multiple places in the adobe-generated HTML in which to put the flash vars. While I can do this successfuly for one flash var, I can't for more than one (I'm using something like this at the moment, which works, but cannot be extended URL
With swfobject 2.2, how do you specify the desired version of flash you require? I need flash 10, but swfobject won't perform an upgrade install with the provided expressInstall. swf in the swfobject 2.2 distributable. How do I get an upgrade install to occur for flash 10?
I need to grab values from the querystring and inject them into a getURL(""); snippet that's in the on (release) {} for a button.So if the URL that contains the embedded swf is
[URL]
I'd like to get that otherdomain.com and inject it. Something like
var returnUrl = ""; // do magic querystring getting getURL(returnUrl);
*Edit: I need to snag the querystring because I don't have access to the embed code. It's being rendered by a third party (Articulate) and loaded into a frame. I do have access to the code that renders the frame html, which is why I figured query string would be the best route, and one button that's used in the presentation.
Note, I live in C# land, not ActionScript land so I most likely butchered the syntax. I just need to get this button working as a one off and I'll probably never deal with it again.BTW, I've seen the abdulqabiz QueryString object that's floating around out there but it kind of seems like overkill, like there should be something baked into the framework for this. I also lack the knowledge of how to incorporate this into my little button on (release) {} event
I have a client that needs a flash intro that will be accessed through a link in an email campaign. When the user clicks the link in their email, it sends them to this flash intro, but also sends a querystring with it. I need the flash file (v5) to read the querystring, use it during the movie, and then pass it on to an asp page when the intro is done playing.What is the best method to do this?
I'd like to convert a Adobe Flash Professional CS5.5 .fla file to an Adobe Flash Professional 8 .fla file. Is this possible without downloading Adobe Flash Professional CS4 and CS3?
I prepared a movie and put into my aspx page and there is a button on this movie which navigates to another aspx page. It has to use querystring information to decide which page to go.
-The page which i put my flash movie is : entry.aspx -If the page is : entry.aspx?lang=tr : it will go to the turkish page on button click, (url : "mturkish.aspx") -if the page is : entry.aspx?lang=en : it will go to the english page on button click, (url : "menglish.aspx")
I'm wanting to create a moving object that will be exported into a tv commercial. Object has already been created in Adobe Illustrator, and now will be dropped into flash for adding movement. The destination commercial will be created in Sony Vegas, with the settings of (Australian) PAL television (25 fps, 576x720 pixels, lower field first).Thus keeping it simple, I want to set Adobe flash with the same output format, meaning that the canvas will have to be 576x720 pixels at 25 fps. So far this seems to have worked okay.Now I'm wanting to get rid of the canvas colour, just like I have here in this photoshop screen shot.
Judging by the colour palette in Flash Professional, it looks like it can't be done. I've checked "transparent palette" through yahoo and google, and had no results. The adobe documentation only details how to remove a background in Photoshop.
I need to call a REST web service that provides an XML feed of weather conditions. I have 13 cities for which conditions are needed, and only 3 nodes for each city are required (vs. the entire feed). My very basic first attempt is as follows:
[Code]...
First, how do I parse the 3 nodes, and ? Next, is there a way to pass a different querystring argument for each of the 13 cities? Finally, how would I add these values to an FLV that's been imported and placed on stage? The FLV displays a geographical area and pans from east to west plotting cities as it goes. At each city plot, the 3 node values need to be "superimposed" onto the FLV.
I'm using an HTTP request to download a image in binary format. When the downloading is complete, I want to process it, but I also want to pass the image's ID to the complete handler function.
I have built a Flash site and also set it up with alternate content so it can be viewed on iPhone and iPad as well as other mobile devices. It works great everywhere but in FireFox the site's swf loads on the page twice.Has anyone else experienced this issue and if so, what have you done to work around this FireFox bug?
I have tried this and it doesn't seem to work. In the example below the movie on the right (boy in the hat) is embedded using this procedure but the two on the left (paws moving on order button and dog animation) had to be installed using Dreamweaver's swf installation methodology. and, consequently the dog animation does not show up in Explorer 8 and some other browsers.
I currently embed a swf video on an html page with this script:
<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> window.onload = function() { if (swfobject.hasFlashPlayerVersion("9")) { var att = { data:"player_3982x260_fv4.swf", width:"640", height:"323" }; var par = { menu:"false", allowfullscreen:"true" };
[Code]...
I've attempted a few different ways to embed two SWFs in the html but havent had any luck. Here's the test page I'm working on: [URL]... How would the window.onload = function() be changed to refference two different swfs?
I upload a file using adobe air HTTPService.Send method by passing byte array of file content read using FileReference. When I write the set of bytes from the server side (php) it writes the details of the byte array (buff) to the file instead of contents of the file like "endian=bigEndian&position=0&bytesAvailable=61127&length=61127&objectEncoding=3" . Below I have included the code that how I read the file and send it to server. Is there anyway that i can directly pass the data in the byte array to send method?
File Read
var buff:ByteArray = new ByteArray(); var localFilePath:String = "/Videos/sample.txt"; var uploadedFile:File = new File(localFilePath);
I'm currently developping a quite big (multi-lingual) application in Flex and I'm now confronted to a problem.I have to do some custom Buttons which have special fonts, special design (like shadow corner radius etc)and the most important, which are oblique not straight.I've made the button in Flash from which I've exported it in SWC.The thing is that, I need different buttons with different labels/icons/backgroundColors.So I would like to know, if there's a way to pass variables to the button class through theSWC file in order not to has one file for each button and each language.
On some sites flash won't play, Adobe TV being one of them. Youtube and many others are fine.I have tried Firefox, Safari and Chrome (all latest versions) on OS X Snow Leopard. I have installed removed and reinstalled the latest Flash. I have even physically removed the Quicktime plugin (from the library/internet plugins) and the Quicktime application (from applications).
My crash log is located here.My specs:quote:HP Pavilion dv6700 Notebook PCIntel Pentium Dual CPU T2330 1.6/1.6 GHz2 GB ramWindows Vista Home Premium SP1 32bit
i can't export as Quicktime, it just stops at "Recording Flash Content" - Yes i could export as .avi, but for some reason, i lose some effects there, i could export as .swf as well, but Sony Vegas won't read .swf files, and i can't find a FREE (I don't want some trial with annoying Logos) ...
On the About Us and Services pages there is a link to open up a pop up box. This works fine but for some reason if I change the text in one section, for instance the "our team" pop up box text the pop up box on the Services page "read more" and "paranormal info" box has the same text displayed.I can't seem to find where to change the text for each box individually. If you visitI've uploaded the .fla file to the server also if someone is kind enough to have a look for me and point me in the right direction. You can download this from:
