SWF Works Great In Flash, Not In Flash Player Or Web Browser?
Oct 15, 2009
I have numerous swf files which work except one that is rather complex. When I debug the FLA of this problem file in flash CS4, it works fine. When I publish the FLA and open the subsequent SWF in Flash, it works fine. I open the same file in Flash Player or when I open it on a browser, the screen is white and nothing happens. When a right click on the browser frame and it offers me all the possibilities of a fully loaded movie, except that there is just a blank screen
look @ the source for this page [URL] It works great in all Webkit/Mozilla browers but in IE 9 we can only see the top half of the swf and in IE 8 it doesnt load @ all. I searched all the other threads and nothing seems to work
When I use the flash player to test my file it works great. But when I use the iphone OS it gives me these problems. I've looked up a lot of the related error problems and haven't found the answer
would this be considered a bug in my code (AS3 and Tweener) or a problem with the SWF and its interaction with HTML?When I test the SWF in Flash, there's no breaking it.I can't break it at all works exactly like it's suppose to.When I embed it in Flash, it breaks in an odd way.I have two buttons, left and right. When the buttons are clicked, images on stage move in the direction they're clicked.When embedded, if I click a button really fast, the images start tripping over each other. Strange thing is, it's only to the left button and not the right, but the code is exactly the same for the right & left movement. If I click the buttons slowly everything works as expected.All of this while again everything works great in Flash itself. No errors.So, at the very least I'm trying to find out if this would be considered a but with my code or a problem with the browsers and the Flash player.
I've created a Flash file that reads from several different xml files and displays them when requested. When I run the Flash player, (by pressing Command-Space within Flash), it all works flawlessly. But when I open it within a browser, only one of the xml files loads, the other two just spin away on the preloader.I have another Flash file that is doing the same thing. A click on a scrolling new list should take you to another web page. In Flash Player it works fine, but from a Browser nothing happens
When I run the flash player (from flashdevelop) the images are loaded and everything is fine.But when I run the swf from a browser the requests are sent (using chrome's tools for programers - network tab) but nothing is loaded. The size/content column shows 0/actual size of the file
I have a code here, that should save the stage to a file, but when I click the button that runs the function that has this code on the browser, it doesn't work. The window asking where to save is not shown.
I have been working on this for a few days on the localhost set up, retriving data as varaibles from a php string. There is a output.php file located on the server. [URL]. My Flash code for retriving the code(the swf in embedded into a menu.php file that is in this dir [URL]). var theloader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); theloader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES; theloader.load(new URLRequest("[URL]")); theloader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, turnOn);
There is no error given by Flash, I just does not load. This is what I have tried (as far as the link is concerned) theloader.load(new URLRequest("[URL]")); theloader.load(new URLRequest("[URL]")); theloader.load(new URLRequest("/output.php")); theloader.load(new URLRequest("output.php")); Still is not loading the file.
My loader component works when I publish to Flash Player 7 but not when I publish to Flash Player 8, why? The publish setting are for ActionScript 2.0 on both.
My project works fine in the flash player. However when I upload it online and try to play it in the browser it becomes slow to the point of crashing. It seems to work on chrome, it super slow on IE, and it completely crashes Firefox. It is difficult to debug since it takes a while for me to repetitively upload to the server. What would cause this kind of slow down? Could it be that I have a large number of embedded files using Flashpunk?
migrating some of my code snippets over from AS2.I tried reproducing one of my most used bit of code - the dynamic border - in AS3, but I have run into a small problem.
PHP Code: var sw:int = stage.stageWidth -1; var sh:int = stage.stageHeight -1;[code].....
So this code works great in Firefox but fails miserably in IE6, Flash Player 9. So my question is does anybody have a workaround that works on IE6, Player 9?
I have developed a rolling credits style movieclip in Flash using Actionscript 2. Text is loaded from an XML file and parsed into a dynamic textfield. This text includes hyperlinks to webpages defined by a url node in the xml so Flash can add the appropriate a href to the dynamic text field and make the link clickable.
In my first attempts to do this the textfield stayed still and all the links worked fine both testing locally and when I run it in a browser on my website.Then I wanted to make things move ... which I achieved easily enough and tested locally (from within Flash Professional) and the links remained clickable, a browser window opened and the webpage i was expecting to see opened... great
However, when I export the swf, upload it and run it from my website suddenly the links are not working. So I tried to test the movie in a browser from Flash Pro - same problem, it must be something to do with Flash Player and the moving dynamic textfield.
a couple of observations - the cursor will change to a hand icon when over the links as you would expect, and if I right click on the link and click open in a new window the link works ok, just not when I left click. If I stop the scrolling then the links become clickable again, it is only when the textfield is moving... actually its not technically scrolling, im moving the whole textfield.
I've just stumbled upon a case when Flash app freezes in production Flash Player and works smoothly in a debug version. It doesn't throw any errors or exceptions. Has anyone ever encountered anything like this? Why is it happening or how one is supposed to debug in such case?And a side question - what exactly is different in debug version from internal point of view? Any good writeup on the topic?
UPDATE:I didn't mention, but the trouble is with Flash Player 11, it probably matters, cause Flash Player 10 doesn't have any problems with the same code.
I've been developing a game that uses hitTestPoint to determine a collision between an ball and a shape. This method has been working fine if I just test the swf in flash but as soon as it's embed in a browser the hitTestPoint stops function.
Can anyone give me a clue as to why this markup works fine in Safari, but not in Firefox?This should load an ugly blue placeholder (which I get in safari) but in Firefox, swfobject just gives me the alternative content.[code]
It rarely happened, I use a flash in exe type to access url in local server. It usually success to access the url. When it fail to access the url, open the ie to access the browser. the url works. After using browser, flash success to access the url. The url would return the JSON content. I use URLLoader to load url, and the return error is no responding when it happen.
If the error happen, it would not access the url even restart the computer.
I am aware of the new FlashBuilder 4.5 mobile application settings. I am aware that it uses an enhanced version of AIR to make apps that work well on mobile devices, which would normally mean that I can't have it run in the browser. I'm also aware that I should be able to get the enhanced performance if I create a swf with the correct compiler settings, and use the correct base components for my application. What are the correct base components? Spark or MX or something else? What are the correct compiler settings? I need the application to work for both desktop users, and mobile users who visit the website through their flash enabled browser.
There are three important features. Being able to load a file from the mobile device/computer. Being able to have the softkeyboard activated when needed. Good mobile performance
Before we test the final effect you will need to adjust some of your flash movies settings. First load up the File -> Publish Settings menu, select the "Flash" tab and set the version to "Flash Player 6" (this setting has to be applied as for some unknown reason the firework effect script will not function in any other versions) Now click "OK"

there is any way to run this effect in flash player 8? I need it to be able to use filters.
I am using the web services connector but it only works if I set the publish settings to compile for Flash Player 7 or above and I need my movie to run on version 6. The web services connector should work from version 6 and I have used it before and published for v6 but for some reason the movie will publish without an error but the web service won't trigger. If I change the settings to publish for version 7 or 8 then it works fine. Here's my code if it's any help:
ActionScript Code: import mx.data.components.WebServiceConnector; var webServiceURL:String = "http://myurl.com"; var wSCheckConnection:Object = new Object();
I have a problem with flash player versions. When I use onSoundComplete event it normally works at Flash Player 6 but it's broken at Flash Player 8. How can I call a function when my sound is finished?
I have an actions layer and a layer with a video object, called "theVideo". Below is the actionscript:
stop(); // global objects.... buffer._visible = false; // playlist object for the playlist from raw xml data
[code]....
This script works locally. I have checked and double-checked the file locations when uploaded. It will parse the XML file when uploaded, but will not play the videos.
I have an activex display that is custom-built and displays video from an IP camera. However it doesnt show on all browsers. I was then adviced to use flash/actionscript to stream a jpeg that the camera drops on a remote server with ip address (just example) 80.247.23.12/container/live.jpg.
However the file name is constant. how can i use flash to stream this live jpeg and make it appear like a streaming movie. I don't know how to go about this at all.
I had been using this script which was written by Muhammad Yahya to fade music in and out of my site. Works great with flash player 6 but now I want to use flash player 8 and it does not want to work.It actually works fine until I add the fade in and out function at the end.Here is the complete code:
music = new Sound(); music.attachSound("LOOP"); music.start(0,999999);[code]....
i have created a silverlight application , but i need to embed it to a Flash file(swf) which it runs with Flash Player ( whithout using browser), I had found a solutions to call it using javascript, but it still needs my flash file run inside the browser, dose any one can help me, Either to run js inside swf (without need of browser) or any other way that i can embed my Silverlight application inside Flash.
I am using Flash CS4 and when testing my application my frame rate changes as it is programmed to do so. When I try to run the application in a browser (tried Firefox 4, Opera 10.5 and IE 8) the frame rate does not change.
