Actionscript 3 :: Flash Failing To Fire Any Events On URLLoader Sometimes?
Aug 10, 2010
I have an instance of URLLoader that works perfectly on my machine and a number of other machines, but in a few rare cases, regardless of the browser or the flash player version, URLLoader never comes back with any of my callbacks and so the load() method is fired off into the stratosphere and nothing happens beyond that.Curious if anyone else has encountered this and if so how they got around it.[EDIT]Ok... never mind on the "no callbacks are fired". In fact it is firing the SecurityError.SECURITY_ERROR. However, I'm at a total loss as to why it would only fire this on some machines and not on others. Does it have something to do with the user's admin privileges or the browser's security settings? The error is 2170, phaseTwo (whatever that means)

I use a LocalConnection object to prevent being able to run our SWF multiple times on the same computer. The problem is that this connection can remain in place even when the SWF which called it closes.
I have:
1) An External Interface call to dispose() all HTML pages call dispose() on pageunload which closes the connection.... But this is unreliable because if the browser crashes, you are locked out of the SWF
2) I tried some crazy try/catch. If SWF A exists and SWF B tries to be initialised.... SWFB cannot connect so it sends a function to SWFA to dispose(). This should free the connection for SWFB to connect to? But this does not work well either because sometimes a localconnection can be in use but calling "dipose()" throws an error, often because the LocalConnection swf which should be available is already gone.
What this all comes down to, is that I need a way to detect when the player closes, so i can close the localconnection.
stage.addEventListener(Event.EXIT, onExit);
function onExit(e:Event): void
{
if (localconnection)

I don't mind if any answers are AS2 or AS3 solutions, just curious really - seems weird that I couldn't find out how to do this really quickly.

I am making a custom scrolling list (smart phone like) in actionscript 3 and have the parent contianer catch mouseEvents for MOUSE_UP and MOUSE_ DOWN.Sometimes the mouse up event is missed, maybe one in 20. Does this happen if the events fire to rapidly? I do not want to use the MOUSE_ CLICK event beacuse if the mouse pointer moved at all I want the list to scroll and not catch a Click event.[code]Can I somehow ensure that all events are fired?Or if not can I somehow get mouse button states directly from flash? Not via the mouse event object, but in onEnterFrame().

The empty space of a canvas does not fire events. My problem is I have a canvas in an application that shows a diagram consisting of different figures, but the canvas empty places do not trigger the events that I need, as the rollover. How I can make my canvas trigger events even in the empty spaces? I have set the background Color, mouseEnabled, color, border, alpha, opaqueBackground, etc, and nothing works. I'm using Flex 4, and I have to use only a mx:Canvas.
Here is the event listener registration:
canDiagram.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, function(event:MouseEvent):void{if(actualCursor != null){CursorManager.setCursor(actualCursor,2,-10,-10);}},true);
canDiagram.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, function(event:MouseEvent):void{CursorManager.removeAllCursors();},true);

i'm trying to make a scrollable box, when a mouse enters and STAYS on "wrapper"'s area, "pubsBox" moves 10 pixels to the left.
<mx:Canvas id="wrapper" height="80" width="750">
<mx:HBox id="pubsBox" horizontalGap="10" height="80" width="100%" />
</mx:Canvas>
My problem is that I'm not sure how to make the MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER work, to recognize that the mouse is still ON the area and so pubsBox should continue to move 10 pixels to the left every second. I understand that i have to use a Timer, but what I'm concerned about is the fact that I can't get Flex to recognize that the mouse is still OVER "wrapper" and continue firing the event.

I'm using the jpgencoder to save a few thumbnails out from flash. The first time I save an image it works just fine, but the second time I try, the image saves but I get absolutely no events fired off from the URLLoader that I'm using with it. If I refresh and try it again, then again it will work once, but not twice. Here is some sample code of what I'm doing:
Code:
var jpgURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("JPEGEncoder.php?path="+path);
var loader: URLLoader = new URLLoader();
jpgURLRequest.contentType = 'application/octet-stream';[code]....

In Adobe AIR 1.5, I'm using URLLoader to upload a video in 1 MB chunks. It uploads 1 MB, waits for the Event.COMPLETE event, and then uploads the next chunk. The server-side code knows how to construct the video from these chunks.
Usually, it works fine. However, sometimes it just stops without throwing any errors or dispatching any events. This is an example of what is shown in a log that I create:
Uploading chunk of size: 1000000
HTTP_RESPONSE_STATUS dispatched: 200
HTTP_STATUS dispatched: 200
Completed chunk 1 of 108

I have created an API in AS3 that uses Flex bindings. The API is being used by two other developers. I am delivering the API in an SWC that includes all code, including the required Flex libraries. The two other developers are building the API into AS3-only projects. One developer is compiling using the Flex SDK through FDT. He includes the SWC in his project and he is able to bind any bindable property. When he uses ChangeWatcher.canWatch on a bindable property, it returns true.
The second developer is compiling using the Flash CS5 IDE. He includes the SWC in his project using the Actionscript settings window (merged into code). But none of the bindings, including ones internal to the API, are working. When he uses ChangeWatcher.canWatch on a bindable property, it returns false. What could the Flash IDE be stripping out that causes ChangeWatcher to stop functioning? What is ChangeWatcher.canWatch actually checking? Is it the metadata, and if so, how can the metadata be preserved in the Flash IDE?

Coding something in pure AS3 (no timeline, etc...) and am hitting a snag with masking a bitmap. Am I missing something here?
[Code]...
End result is nothing shows up whenever I set the mask property. Without setting the mask I see my noisy rectangle just fine. Can anyone see why the mask doesn't seem to be working?

$("#listView object.modal").click(function(){
// Get the ID of the clicked link:
var link = $(this).closest("h2").attr("title");
[Code]....
This fires a modal (jQuery UI). It it working in FF, Chrome/Safari but not in IE 7/8. Is there something I'm missing here?
Big Picture: We're using a swf to render custom type and there is a link in the rendered (flash) content. We're hoping to catch the link action in the jQuery listener so we don't have to extend our swf have an optional param to return false on link click.

I'm trying to load a RSL library into a flash animation developed with Flash CS5 IDE, that extends a custom class and implements an interface. I have reduced the problem to the simplest setup and find that I can have my main class extend another class or implement an interface, but not do both at the same time if I want to load an RSL.I have a very simple class to extend:
import flash.display.Sprite;
public class MySprite extends Sprite
{[ code]...........
but if I want both I get the VerifyError: Error #1014 with MySprite not found and ReferenceError: Error #1065.

How would I go about as to addEventListener for a array object. I'm trying to avoid running a timer every x milliseconds to check for new elements in array object, rather trying to make a event fire when new elements are detected to process them and remove them. Is it possible with Arrays? maybe ArrayCollections? either is fine.

We have implemented a Flash photo slideshow on our site and it works just fine for most of our users. Whenever the xml.load(success) returns false I have the Flash email me a debug report. For the life of me I can not find a common thread between all of these people having problems with the Flash. I don't think it's a cross-domain issue because it works for most people, and I have the crossdomain.xml files where they should be.

I've set up a function to pause the sound in an mp3 player whenever certain things are clicked on the page, using ExternalInterface, but I'm having a problem in IE.The setup is this: I have a video page that calls up a list of YouTube videos using RSS.he most recent video is displayed on the page in a div called "display". Then all the rest of the videos in the feed are displayed as thumbnails and links...If you click one of them, then the main 'display' video is replaced and it starts playing. All of that works fine.hat I want is for the mp3 player on the page to pause the music whenever a video is started.The ExternalInterface function works properly. Whenever one of the LINKS is clicked, the mp3 player stops and the video starts, etc.
The problem is that I also want it to stop when the MAIN video is clicked. Obviously, since this is an external video loaded from YouTube, I can't access the FLA to add its own ExternalAccess code.I've tried adding an ID to the video object and then using it as the selector in jQuery to call the stopMovie function...no go. I've tried adding a class to it, and then calling the stopMovie function when the class is clicked. I've tried putting the click function on the div that the video loads into...nothing works. If I remove the main video and just have an empty div, then click the div, the mp3 player stops...but if I load the video into the div and click it, nothing happens (in IE...it DOES work in FF).The Actionscript:
import flash.external.ExternalInterface;
ExternalInterface.addCallback("stopMovie", pauseSound);
function pauseSound(str:String):void {

try {
URL urlLink = new URL("[URL]");
// Serve the file
InputStream in = urlLink.openStream();
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream("/sdcard/tempFlash.flv");

I am trying to use if and else statements and failing. I am either completely missing their purpose, or just not writing the correct code. Scenario: I have designed a gallery that consists of animation in movie clips that are placed on the time line. With the if/else statements I need Flash to know what movie clip the user is on, so that the users next action loads the correct movie clip.

When someone "click and holds" I want to fire off function over and over, say, once every 100ms while the mouse is clicked. Instead of MouseEvent.CLICK I would look for MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN and then start a timer on that event function that calls another function every 100ms. Then, on MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP I would stop the timer. Am I on the right track? Will I be able to get updated X and Y coordinates while the mousedown event is firing?
