I would like to know what my visitors will see when they visit my site without flash installed. Obviously I could uninstall flash to find this out, but I was just wondering whether there's some gimmicky add-on out there that can simulate 'no Flash'. Would be handy...
View 2 RepliesI think I broke my Flash. I'm using Flash CS5.5, and when I use AS3, any references to the Math class give me errors like this:1061: Call to a possibly undefined method sqrt through a reference with static type Class.1061: Call to a possibly undefined method pow through a reference with static type Class.1061: Call to a possibly undefined method pow through a reference with static type Class.The code in error is this:var dist:Number = Math.sqrt(Math.pow(initPos.x - pos.x, 2) + Math.pow(initPos.y - pos.y, 2));What the heck is going on here? Math is a top-level class, so I don't think I should be getting an error like this. Is it possible to somehow "break" the Math class? If so, how do I fix it?

View 1 RepliesI've searched this and cannot find it. I've tried different plugins and different browsers (Firefox, Opera, and Chrome). I've tried most of the no flash plugins for each of those as well as disabling Flash plugins/addons in the settings. I also renamed the .so file in /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/ i found by searching the system. when i renamed it, makes Firefox and Chrome ask to install Flash, but still:alert(navigator.mimeTypes['application/x-shockwave-flash'].type);returns:application/x-shockwave-flash'm not sure what else to try without uninstalling Flash, but that will be a total pain in the ass for this. I also REALLY don't want to use SWFObject just to see if Flash is at all installed which I can do simply with:
View 1 RepliesI have a quick question... is there a way to simulate a flashvar while testing an application in the Flash IDE? I know I can export it and test it on a web browser with a container passing the flashvar, but it's so much easier to just do CTRL+Enter :P
Specifically, what I'm doing here is the following: My movie has a lot of things hardcoded... I want it to load the hardcoded parts only if there's a flashvar called "debug" and set to "true". As you may have guessed, I DO NOT want that flashvar to be known to my providers, but I do want to set it on the IDE so everytime I test the code, it enters my debug mode (and so I don't have to change even a bit of code to publish it later)This would be my code:

I am currently making a website on my Mac with Adobe Dreamweaver CS4. I had an idea to make an iPhone and press a button next to it so that it would change the application page/home screen page displayed on the iPhone. I have NO idea how to go about doing this. I was told this can be done in Flash using Actionscript 3.0 but I do not know anything about AS3.
View 2 RepliesI have a simple flash socket that I use to connect to IRC servers. It has an open, close, and send method made available to JS through ExternalInterface, for opening connections, closing connections, and sending messages respectively. The socket calls IRC.io.receive in JS whenever it gets a message, which is parsed by JS into something useful.Unfortunately, whenever any of the flash methods are called from JS, they return a "__ is not a function" error.Here's the (watered down) AS, where IRC is the document class:
public class IRC extends MovieClip {
public static function open(url:String, port:int) {/* code */}
public static function close(port:int) {/* code */}
public static function send(port:int, message:String) {/* code */}

Any call to any of the functions registered with ExternalInterface throws a "function does not exist" exception.

Question: Is it possible to simulate a mouse click on a button/movie clip in a Flash object embedded in a web page? Googling only shows ways to simulate a mouse click on a DOM element, and ways that require the ActionScript to be changed to implement a JavaScript interface. Or is this simply impossible?
I am trying to show the first image of my image gallery when it is loaded. How would I go about simulating a mouse click event that will pass an event value to a function?

View 3 RepliesI have recently started making (and am still making) the transition from ActionScript 2 to 3. I have used the _global variable in an AS2 project as I needed a variable to be accessible from within ANY swf loaded into my main movie. This worked like a treat.
However, along came AS3 and whipped that from right under my feet. After much Googling, a few people suggested making use of a simple class with a simple variable that can be publicly set and retrieved. I made a simple class, imported it and manipulated the value, and all went well, however the instance of the class I create in my main loader movie is still not accessible from within a second SWF that gets loaded into my movie. If I re-instantiate the class in the SWF that is being dynamically loaded, the value reverts to the default value in the class code, not the new value set in my parent (first) movie.
Here is my class code, stored in an external .as file, is there any way I can simulate the ostype variable being a global variable?

public class ostype {
public var ismac:Boolean = false;

How to develop a flash file that can simulate a sms (text message) input like how you will write a message with your mobile phone. For example pressing the num '1' once, will give u 'a', twice will give u 'b', and trice will give u 'c' etc. I have an onscreen number pad, so user click the button '1' will give u 'a', twice will give u 'b' and etc. Problem is how can I detect the mouse to be how many click before they chunk out a alphabet. Also not forgetting some key like '7' need to test for 4 hit (P,Q,R,S).

View 1 RepliesI listen to internet radio at [URL] and it works pretty well, except for one minor issue. The Flash applet that runs the radio player has a timer on it, where if you don't move the mouse over the player every once in a while, it decides you're idle and shuts off the stream, even if you're not actually idle, but just working on something else with the radio player running in the background.
Is there any way I can send a fake MouseOver message to this applet to keep it from cutting me off in the middle of a song, maybe with a GreaseMonkey script? I'm using Firefox.
