I used cs4 to create the swf. I published with html output. I noticed I was running in quirks mode so to fix that I put a doctype statement befor the html tag. This is the doctype:[code]the swf still diplays at it's full width but only about the top 1/5'th of the output displays.

Will not let me scale my .swf to 100% width and 100% height. Width is fine, but the height is not. my css is as follows:

when I run index.html (loads the swf file) locally, the 'ID' is not changing when i resfresh the window. I clear browsing history and the ID changes when I resfresh. Is there a way to tell my swf file to ignore the browsing history so that it will change the ID number everythime I refresh the swf file? Is it because I'm using a textfiled to display it? this is the fla file the displays the ID

I had created a website about a week that was written 100 percent in Flash CS4. Today I was taking a tutorial on Lynda.com that had to do with SEO in Flash CS4. I added some h1 and h2 tags just as the below code shows:
<style type="text/css"><!--body { text-align: center;}--></style></head><body bgcolor="#000000"><h1>RENCON Intellectual Property</h1><p>RENCON Intellectual Property introduces the Relational Squaring System for construction and layout personnel.</p><h2>Relational Squaring System</h2><p>The Relational Squaring System is the newest and easiest way for construction layout personnel to create 90-degree angles.</p><h2>Contact RENCON Intellectual Property</h2><p>You can contact RENCON Intellectual Property at info@rencononline.com.</p><!--url's used in the movie--><!--text used in the movie--><!--
For some reason when I preview it in a browser the site much lower on the browser page. I put the code back the way it was and now everything looks right again.
I have a full screen flash movie that loads and displays correctly in firefox and chrome. In IE, however, it displays at 1/3 the width. The embedded code is relatively simple:
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
[Code]....
IE respects the height, but I would really like to use 100% height. What could I be doing wrong?
Tested in IE 8, Windows XP, Flash Player 11, SWFObject v2.0

View 1 RepliesI've embedded an FLV file (created in Premiere Pro CS4) using Dreamweaver CS4 and I cannot get the actual video to show/play in any browser. If you right click where the video is located on the page, or highlight everything on the screen, you can see the defined outline of it, but nothing ever actually loads/shows. I uploaded all of the files that Dreamweaver created with its little FLV embed wizard, so I'm not sure what exactly I'm missing

I'm trying to learn Flash CS5, but having a bit of trouble with the basics. I start a new actionscript3 project and, whenever I try to draw anything, no matter what I select, it always comes out as a plain, green outline. For example, say I want to draw a red, dotted circle It should look something like this, but it will always come out like this
View 3 RepliesI'm working on a Flash presentation, and I have a lot of text pages with buttons and movie clips on. The problem I have is that all subheads are set to size 35pt using Helvetica Neue Heavy, but on a couple of the pages a random subhead is displaying a lot larger than 35pt (I'd say 50pt) but it is definitely set to size 35pt in the Character palette. I have no idea why this is happening and it's driving me mad.

View 3 RepliesA friend is building a blog, with entries placed in a database, pulled out with php, and then passed to flash. It all goes well except for one thing...problems with html. She's using a tutorial from webmonkey and here's all the actionscript, as it originally was created:
Code:
//function to load external data using the loadVars() object
//l=name of loadVars object
//n=name of text field [code]....
the result: everything loaded in the .swf except the title of her entry over the entry itself. There is a bold html tag around that part, she removed it and voila! The title appeared. But now there's another html tag that starts off a line of code, and it's failing. Click on the entries, and nothing loads except the - between the date and title. Here is that section of code:
Code:
for (i=0; i<this.n; i++) {
n.htmlText += "<u><a href='asfunction:_root.loadArc,"+this["id"+i]+"'>"+this["title"+i]+" - "+this["date"+i]+"</a></u><br>";
}
She found that by hardcoding a variable defined by the loadArc function, which is pulled in as arcNum, the whole thing works...but of course, can only pull in one entry with the one id number she coded.She also has removed the <u> tags, but the <a href must obviously remain to make her entries clickable.why having html at the front of this statement in the for loop is causing the entire line to fail, and no variable to pass? It's an interesting stumper. To see this in action, here is the page: http:[url].... In that directory you can also find the .fla file and the php results from the database. Tester.html is her second flash movie, also in that directory and completely barebones, and she received the exact same results.
I maintain a website for a company that creates popUp displays for trade shows. Here is a link [URL]. I am pretty advanced in Flash and AS3, so I'm planning to make a utility for visitors to the website where they can take their picture(logo) and choose a few options and this will generate a render of what their display could look like.
I'm not sure even where to begin with distorting an image to fit a wave style display. We make renders often with maya, but we don't need flash to look THAT good, just an idea so people don't keep making basic mistakes like making their text unreadable. I just want to put flat designs and dynamically slap them on these fabric displays!
I made a swf file and embed it in my website.It displays properly in the mozilla firefox but not in my google chrome.Is this problem related to the browser or the way that I embeded my swf file.
View 1 RepliesWhenever I test or publish a CS5 movie that uses TLF text (no matter which font), the .swf displays all elements but the text. There's simply nothing there. I'm on a mac with Snow Leopard, 10.6.7. This only happens as soon as I pass the 1000 frame limit (before, everything displays fine). Reaching wit's end here. Anyone know what causes this, and more specifically, how to solve it?
View 1 RepliesUsing CS 5.5, I am using a single scene with buttons that all appear on the first frame along with code snippet AS also on the first frame that when clicked, takes the user to a different frame. Everything seems to work fine, except, after you go to frame 15 and click on one of the buttons that take you to one of the earlier frames, the text from frame 15 still displays on those earlier frames. The text on frame 15 is on a different layer and does not exist anywhere else until frame 15.

I developed the Scroller component dynamically... everything is drawn from scratch, no library movieClips, etc. I'm starting to think that could be the cause? I've tried many different things: Changed the HTML code to bare bones embedding code.Recompiled in Flex.... same result!Tested on another computer... it worked fine! However, I tested on another computer with FireFox... same problem.
It's so weird.I seperated the Image Slide show component from the Scroller... the scroller had the same effect... didn't display in FF.Played around with WmodeChecked my code for addChild problems, visibilty, alpha properties... nothing out of the ordinary.Asked God.Drank some Gin.Took a break and came back to it.I've reseached Google and the most I could come up with is to compile using FP10. It is FP10. I'm using CS3 and FlashDevelop. When I right click on my Flash file, it does indeed display FP10. Same with Flex.

I dont want to copy the code from the first into the second and the first and second into the third.
My mind isn't working and there is probably an extremelly simple way to get this working.
I know I could used functions but for some reason it stops the instance referencing working: _root["bullet"+j] doesnt work in a function.
The Flash movie contains 2 Text files, one Component button, and 1 component checkbox.The purpose of the application is to load an XML file(works)Populate 2 text fields with information from the XML file(works)Compare the two text fields, if they contain the same information then the checkbox, via AS is told to be selected. (Heres the problem);
Heres the code:
Code:
runCode_btn.onPress = function() {
data_xml = new XML();
data_xml.ignoreWhite = true;
data_xml.onLoad = function(success) {
[code]....
The idea behind this app is that its an electronic form. The user fills it out, the information is then sent to a newly created XML file, months later the open the XML file in flash, and Flash fills out text fields and check and or unchecks Checkboxes based on the XML data.CheckBoxes are mandatory.But I don't see how I'll be able to use them if i can't create and condition statements based on the loaded Data.
why this code won't work

I'm sure you can put if statements inside other if statements, seriously I can't figure it out
I need to write an if statement inside an if-else statement. But no matter how I write it it keeps giving me a syntax error.The syntax error is "1083: syntax error: else is unexpected".[code]No matter how or where I place the braces, it keeps giving me errors.

to which I want it to GENERATE THE FOLLOWING CODE:
Code:
}else if(baskets[i].used == false){
baskets[i].used = true;
drawButton(i);
}
the problem is obviously that the compiler reads this code rather than understanding I'm trying to regenerate the code within the for loop...does that make sense :S? So basically I need as3 to read the code between the for statement as if it is going to echo that out later. Is this even possible?
