I have a XMLSocket and I call send twice in the same function. The first send works but the second does not? Does XMLSocket have a restriction to only send one message per frame? Do I have to queue messages and have an onEnterFrame function that checks the queue and sends one message for a frame?
View 1 RepliesI am attempting to connect to a python twisted socket server with Flash using XMLSocket. The connect works fine, and so does the receive. However I can't send data to the server. Is there a specific format I should be using? The reason I ask is because I couldn't read any data with the XMLSocket until the data was in the form "something", that is, the data string had to be valid xml followed by the null character. Is there a trick to sending data?
I don't think this a cross site security problem, because if it was, I believe I wouldn't be able to connect or receive. I am able to connect to the server using telnet and a java client without issues. EDIT: I figured it out, the problem was my server needed to have the data sent to it end with"
I would like to create a XML object and after this send it via XMLSocket class. The XML must have a special form:
Code: Select all<?xml version="1.0"?><Colour xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" Value="red"/>
I'm able to create the basic structure but I'd like to add some transitions between frames when a player makes a choice. I want to make it look like one frame slides to the left followed by the next frame sliding into view.

Does anybody use bare .SWF files as webpages? I know it's possible; it seems to work fine for me. Why would I embed a SWF inside an HTML page if it's just going to be full screen (I mean the size of the browser's normal viewable page area, not COMPLETELY fullscreen)?
Is there a lack of browser support? Or is this functionality determined by the browser's Flash plugin?
I want to have a web site which switches the web camera of users, makes a video recording and send results to my web server.Is it possible to do that? I think it should be. For example such sites as chatroulette.com starts web camera. Should it be done with the Adobe Flash technologies? Is it hard to do that?
View 1 RepliesIf I load a web page full of other files, e.g. images, my browser doesn't load them all at once.I seem to remember reading that IE will only have at most 3 requests open at a time for a page. The rest will be queued.If I have a flash movie on the page which is continually making image requests, how does this affect the maximum number of downloading files in the browser?
Is this browser limit accurate, and is it generally the same across browsers? Does flash share the requests of the browser? If not, does flash have a limit and what is that limit?
For some background, I do have a flash movie that is continually loading files so there is a queue of Loaders waiting to make requests.My idea was that if there was a different request that I needed to be executed straight away I could make it jump the queue by making a javascript call and allowing the browser to make the request instead.

I've been given a Flash tutorial to post to the corporate website that is an .exe file with an embedded Flash player. Users will be on IE, so I guess they would get the run/save prompt. I don't like this and I know it generally isn't done, but I need to know if it is OK to just do it. When I try to explain the security issues with executable files, eyes glaze. Is it possible that the users' system admins would be able to block the run prompt and make the user save the file? Could they block that too? The user community is hopeless, so having the embedded Flash player could be a good thing.
View 1 RepliesI am designing a website with flash video content. If I pass in the URL to a .flv file as a flash parameter to the embedded video player someone can easily extract the URL and download the flv video file. How to do I prevent this? Can someone refer me to anti-leeching techniques being used my websites like youtube.

View 3 RepliesWell, I made a login page with flash and php. So I was wondering how can I make it so that I can send variables to another frame.
Like I have a button, when you press it, it connects to the database, and it checks your login. Then it gets all the variables. So how can I get the variables for every page on my flash project?
The only way I can think of now, is setting a dynamic text to the variable..
I am using this code to send to URL instead of sending to a frame , is not working , is ther anything wrong with it ?
try { navigateToURL(new URLRequest(items[selectedIndex].targetFrame), _blank); } catch (e:Error) {}
basically its a submit button with action script, the button sends of the php file and thats all grand...
on (release) {
// send variables in form movieclip (the textfields)
// to email PHP page which will send the mail

I want to draw some combination of bitmaps, flash shapes, vectors, text etc and draw them programmatically into my movie using ActionScript, and then get every "rendered" pixel of my movie (at 100% view) into an array that I send to another program over TCP/IP. The first part of the question is if its possible to render a frame that is a collection of Flash elements as a bitmap? I know that I can iterate through a bitmap and get every pixel using the getPixel method but I'm trying to access the final rendered frame displayed on my screen, including, as I said Flash shapes and text.
The second question is what would be the best way to send this "video frame" over TCP/IP? Would I use an XML socket connection? That is the only way I know how to send data out of Flash over TCP/IP but I don't know if it is the only way - the help page says the data needs to be formatted as XML, which seems unwieldly for this application. I'm doing this now by using Max/MSP/Jitter to do a screen capture the size and location of my Flash movie and then send out the resulting matrix using a "jit.net.send" object (which lets you send frames of video over TCP/IP), but this is too clumsy for the installation I am building.
i made swf which contain 7 button to control 7 pages i put this swf in dreamweaver to control ths file, i tried to give every single button Avalue to tell the root which frame in which movie clip(for the button to be highlight) but it deosn't work
here is the code
////////////// the code for Buttons
on (release) { if (_root.link != 1) {
// if there anther selected button _root.menu["item"+_root.link].gotoAndPlay("s2"); _root.link = 1;

I am in the final stages of building my new web site: http:[url]....On most of the pages in the portfolio there is a video "Commentary" link (top right corner).Each of the commentaries are flv called up by f.ex:
myMCL.loadClip("http:url.....);
Once the video is done playing, it fades to black.I would really like the flv to trigger an event to send the playhead to another frame and load another swf.I could use a pause command and let the main time line pause so many milliseconds and then proceed, but it is probably not consistent how long it takes each viewer to download the video and watch it.
I have code to send a movieclip to a frame label which works just fine, but I want to pull the frame labels from a database for multiple movieclips and send them to different frames.. the following works :-
tab1.gotoAndStop('Roleplay');
but once in a loop, I'm having problems... is it down to the syntax ?
for (i = 1; i <= 4; i++) {
var currentTab:String = "tab" + i; var currentTag:String = event.target.data["tag" + i];
[currentTab]gotoAndStop(currentTag);
}
I have a layer called "home_movie" and on that later on the end frame is a movie clip that plays, what i want to happen at the end of the animation is it to send the user back to the frame above they started at. which is layer: home_movie, frame id: main_movieopt but its not working.

Im wondering if the LoadVars.SendAndLoad()-function can target a particular frame in a webpage as can the LoadVars.send()-function?
View 2 RepliesI have a .swf menu with 20 or so links. Each link opens up a new html page that in turn embeds the same swf menu. All I want is to simply have the html tell the swf to gotoAndStop a specific frame label that really just 'highlights' that particular button, so the user knows where they are. that's it... used to be able to do this with fsCommand, or so i thought.

i am writing a flash app that receives its data over a XMLSocket. On the testmachine that worked really fine, but now the data will be ssl secured. Is there any XMLSSLSocket or something similar available? If not XMLSocket a normal SSLSocket would be a great help as well.
View 2 RepliesI have a perl socket on my apache server that correctly takes input from sockets and sends it back out to every socket connected to the perl socket. I have tested the perl socket, and it works correctly.
When I launch the Flash in the IDE, as a flash program, it functions correctly with the perl socket.
However, when I try to launch the Flash in a Browser on my apache server, it tells me it is unable to connect to the server.However, I am seeing from feedback from my perl socket, the flash connects for about a half of a second, and thats it.
What could be the problem, do I have to include code in the flash to allow XMLSockets to connect in a browser as well? Is there certain things I need to do with my apache server to make it work?
Also if I 'Preview as HTML' from Adobe Flash CS4, it does not connect.
I'm trying to make a socket client in FlashAS3 for my socket server written in nodejs. I also have a mobile app client that communicates with it.

On this page it says "The XMLSocket.connect method can connect only to TCP port numbers greater than or equal to 1024"This makes it hard to get a chatserver to work through a firewall.BUT I recently discovered on this page that you can set up "policies" for your flash movie that allow it to run on port 80.
View 1 RepliesIm looking for a solution for the Error #2048 from Flash. I have a server program developed in Java using the class xSocket and it works fine. It manage the clients from Flash. Well, once i installed the server app in my domain "97.225.158.110" and running the client developed in Flash from my PC within Flash environment, it connects to the server with no problem. But, if i upload the flash to the domain and load it in a web explorer, it doesnt work. Well, i have been seeing many web pages mentioning the policy file and i will show you how i have done it: In the the Java App i have a event handler for incomming data where i idetify the incomming string:
Code:
if(data.equalsIgnoreCase("<policy-file-request/>")) {
Main.Log.append("Enviando archivo Politica Seguridad");
nbc.write("<cross-domain-policy><allow-access-from domain="*" to-ports="8090"/></cross-domain-policy>�");[code].............
Well, the java server app receive the string policy request and it should answer with the quoted file but the Flash never receive it and in a minute the Error 2048 appear.
