Actionscript 3 :: Flash - StageWidth Wrong In Firefox 3.6?
Apr 20, 2011
I have a full-windowed SWF running in Firefox3.6.Reading stage.stageWidth should follow the size of the browser's window, but that's not the case with Firefox! The minimum stage.stageWidth I get is 925, even if I make the Firefox window much smaller than that.stage. stageHeight seems to work fine though.This is because the (my?) Menu Bar won't go below 925 pixels wide. The problem is solved if I hide the Menu Bar!
This problem only appears on Firefox. Anyone knows if there is a work around? I can't ask users visiting my site to turn their menu bar off in order to see it correctly.

I'm having issue regarding the display when using Firefox 3.5 on MAC, I can see my menu and the display is correct. The menu just position above what it supposed to be positioned. It works fine with Safari on MACOSX.My flash size is: 1440x750It looks like Firefox can't recognize stage.StageWidth and stage.StageHeight. It returns 0.Some suggest implementing was to pass in the actual width and height of movie via FlashVars. The movie uses these instead of stage.stageWidth and stage.stageHeightDoes anyone have an example of code of how to fix that issue??
public function Main()
{
addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, handleOnStage, false, 0, true);

Working on personal full flash site and I can't really figure out how to make MC's position on Stage aligned on Firefox browser. Everything goes fine using Safari.
I have tried a method of set a timer every time it goes off (every 200 ms or so) it checks to see if stage.stageWidth > 0. If that is the case, do stop the timer and start resize on stage. However it's still not working on Firefox of MAC. :(
In my HTML code:
<link href="css/site.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
Test Site
<script type="text/javascript">
var swf = new SWFObject("main.swf", "mymovie", "100%", "100%", "10", "#000000");
swf.addParam("allowScriptAccess", "always");

sometimes when i load a webside in firefox, it fails to draw some of the elements that gets drawn early on in the flash file (4 squares and a background square, all movieclips), but other times it works perfectly. And it ONLY happens in firefox, as far as i know. I have tested it in Opera, Safari and Firefox on my mac. The other browsers loads the file perfectly.I use SWFObject, SWFFit and SWFAddress, if that can have any effect.i draw and do everything in AS3, i only have 2 Movieclips in my fla file, which i export to actionscript.

I am using SWFOBJECT to embed my flash content. I have been worried about stage.stageWidth and stage.stageHeight returning 0 in Firefox/Internet Explorer; this problem is referred to in question #21 on the SWFOBJECT FAQ [URL]..I have been told that this problem is particularly prevelant on Macs. The SWFOBJECT FAQ (question 21) indirectly suggests that this problem does not occur with static publishing. Is this correct? Is it still advisable to implement a solution to this stageWidth/stageHeight problem, even if you are using static publishing?

I have a banner in actionscript 2, that posts to a URL, and gets a response back. The http header from that is then used to figure out if the posting was successful. This works like a charm i IE, but in Firefox and Safari, the Flash player shomehow interprets the HTTP header as a 0, no matter what the browser actually gets. My guess is that it's what's described here [URL]...

In my AS3 code all the elements on the page are dynamically positioned depending on the current width and height of the SWF - providing it's not under a certain value, then the items are back in their original position.
When debugging in the Flash player the size all reports correctly however when run from a web browser it does not - initially.
This is my HTML & PHP code for the entire page:
HTML Code:
<?php
function hashId($fn) {
$hash=md5_file($fn);
[Code].....
But I cannot get the size to report correctly without, say, clicking a button.
It seems to me like I need to force flash to re-draw the screen, but I had no luck trying to do that.

Well everything was going well until I tested my project in a browser (embeded using SWFObject if that matters). After all the troubleshooting, it turns out that the stageWidth/Height values were just 0 which threw off the whole thing. The stage is set up by the DocClass (some unrelated stuff taken out to make it shorter):

I've got a MovieClip that gets positioned in respect of the stage.stageWidth/stage.stageHeight which works completely fine in the stand-alone Flash Player, however when embedded into a webpage with the "showAll" param it gets cropped. Is anyone aware of some sort of issue with stageWidth not being updated when using the scale param in the embed code?

I am creating a android app using adobe air (flex sdk 4.6.0) and i am trying to find out what the width of the phone screen is in pixels. So I am fallowing the tutorial here but when ever i copy the code into my project and click run it always gives me this error "TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference." and goes to the line that has stage.stageWidth I have also tried stage.width but it does the same thing. So does stage.stageWidth no longer work or how do you tell the screen size of the tablet or phone? Was it replaced with something else for phones? I am trying to get the information so i can center images in the center of the screen using action script.[code]

I'm trying to make a movieclip scale proportionally only if the item is being resize smaller than the current.Obviously I can use the ScaleX/Y values like so:
if (cont.scaleX < cont.scaleY ) { cont.scaleY = cont.scaleX; } else { cont.scaleX = cont.scaleY; }
I need to restrict/reset the scale proportions only in special case that the stageWidth/Height are smaller than the movieclip.

Flash receives the XML, but the values are wrong. How do I fix this? Problem I can see the XML loaded with no errors, but my output is way off. It's as though it's not receiving any values. Numbers in the output window and animation move rapidly. The Flash file runs as if it's variables where set to zero. I changed the order of my code, but that didn't help with this. how I can correct this.
[Code]...
your problem is that you're calling myLoader.load() and adding an event listener to wait for the xml to finish loading, but you're then immediately setting var delay:uint = 0; and var repeat:uint = 0; and starting the timer. you can see this in your results by the 1, XML, 2, 3, 4 output. the load call is asynchronous so it returns immediately. you need to wait until your processXML function is called before proceeding to the next step.

I'm using CS5 flash professional to build a swf. I have it publishing to flash 8, actionscript 2. but it will only work with browsers that have 10.1+ plugins, no matter what I try. is there something really obvious that I'm missing? Edit: I'm using swfobject.embed. it looks like this: swfobject.embedSWF("/foo.swf", "myContent", "400", "300", "9.0.0", "/foo.swf", flashvars);

I am trying to get the stage width of the FLA in as3. Obviously, stage.stageWidth works well, the only issue is that when viewing the the SWF in an HTML page when you are zoomed in or out it gives you the relative width of your current view. For example, my stage width is 800x600 and when I trace out the stage.stageWidth it is showing up as 800 as long as I am viewing in my browser at 100 percecent, but once I zoom out in my browser the stageWidth gets traced out as a smaller number. Does anyone know how I can dynamically get the stageWidth of the FLA and have it not change regardless of how you are viewing the HTML page

I have a flash file that a customer has sent me that needs changing. (It is a flash website header with links to the site pages and a logo above. I have deleted the logo above) One of the problems is the size. I would like to half the size of the document as there is a lot of white space in the top half where I am going to add a static logo to a webpage (with these flash site links below). When I open Flash CS4 and click Modify > Document..., I can change the height dimensions but the white background changes but the whole of the flash movie is now under the document.
How can I change the possition of either the rest of the document or the background of the document to fit under my movie so that the whole document displays as a flash movie at the correct size? Another problem that I am having is changing the links in the template to the page names that I am using on the site. I don't seem to be able to even find the buttons to make the changes. What ever I do to view them I can't 'see' them when scrolling the time line but when I export or preview the movie all the elements are there.

As I didn't find another place for Flash Player 10.1 standalone-subjects (only 10.2. or the browser-players),When I open my .swf with double-click from the finder, it opens in FP 10.1. - but an _older_ project (which is located in a completely different place) will load! And it opens twice No matter, what new .swf I am creating, it's always this old file that will start.When opening the same .swf in FPlayer 9, it works fine.

Seems like sometimes when Selenium should call a certain method, it instead calls another, as pointed out by the following log
[Code]...
I've tried both Selenium server 1.0.3 and the 2.0 alpha 7 versions, they both display this behaviour. FlashSelenium is involved so I'm not sure where along the way lies the bug. Furthermore it's hard to reproduce as it doesn't happen only for some methods, and doesn't always happen.
I've tried searching for issues similar to these but couldn't find any remotely similar... Anyone experienced the same behavior? And if so, is there a fix for it? Edit: I doubt FlashSelenium is at fault for this, as the log tells that the command arrives correctly at the server... But I can't seem to be able to follow the path of execution from the moment the Selenium server gets the command and passes over to the browser, to the moment where it gets the response.

Login Form: I send Login and Password from Flash to PHP. PHP accepts those values, checks them against the database, and then... returns something weird to flash. Instead of just returning "true" (if the password is correct) or "false" (if the password in not correct), PHP returns one of those values AND whatever comes after that value, including even the closing PHP tag ?> .... I know it because I trace the returned value in Flash. I need your help with my scripts. This is my Flash button, sending the values to PHP.

When I test the swf straight from Flash, the stageWidth is 800 pixels. This is correct. When I load the swf using an HTML page in Firefox, it tells me the stageWidth is 0. I've stripped the whole thing down to just the following script and slapped a bright green frame into the first layer of FLA so I can see the edges of the stage. The SWF is displaying at 800 X 800 but the number displaying in the text field is "0" in a browser, and "800" when the swf is playing stand-alone.
package com.maijag.threedee{ import flash.display.*; import flash.text.TextField;
public class SwarmTest extends Sprite { private var myParent:Object;
public function SwarmTest() { myParent = this; // this textField is just to see what the stageWidth is in
