I have an mxml component "PresentationWindow" that is for brevity's sake, simply:
<fx:Script>
//... functions here will be explained below
</fx:Script>
<s:Window>

Does anyone know of a class file or third party component that has the same functions (or similar) of what the alert window component did in flash 8? I am doing this is AS3 obviously is why i need an alternative.Im trying to make a pop up modal window of sorts like the alert window component did.
View 3 RepliesI followed a tutorial here on kirupa on how to make a centered pup-up window. I kinda got it working. But when i test the movie out a blank page with the word "object" in the left corner appears behind the photo-gallery I have in the pop-up. When I upploaded it and tried if it would work "on the net" the button that brings up the pop-up does nothing.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to make a popup alert modal window thing with an external class. I have a simple swf set up with just some random sample text, a rectangle, and a button. What I want to happen is for the "alert" class to initialize upon startup of the swf and then when I click the button (instance: btn), the alert will show up. If I get rid of all AS in the swf and set alert as the document class, it shows up just fine, so I think it should be working, but for some reason I get this instead when I try the button function:

View 8 RepliesI got a code here which I got from Kirupa which launches a new html window from flash: [code] However, the window is not centered. I know that there is another code introduced by Kirupa which launches a centred pop-up window, but I've already used this code for several files, and was wondering if I could change the code above so that it would open in the centre.
View 1 RepliesI have a scene of a website dedicated to some pictures, with 8 thumbnails that are linked to different web locations. I found the kirupa's tutorial Launching a Centered Pop-Up Window very suitable to what I want, but there is a problem. Only one link works. When I made the second link, an output error appear
(Scene=nerenovate, Layer=1, Frame=1: Line 1: Mouse events are permitted only for button instances
on (release) {
and the second link doesnt works at all. I think the problem is at the actions layer, but don't know how to solve it.
I have been using code I recently found on Kirupa called Displaying a Centered Pop-Up Window.I have this feature attached to 6 buttons that pop up windows to different URL's. The window gets stuck on one size and completely ignores my attemps to change to a different size... like it's locked into my first code of 600 x 300. I've tried re-uploading the FLV file, purging internet memory and refreshing but the window size just won't change. Here is the link where I found the [url]...
View 1 RepliesI'm using this code in Flash to popup a window:
on (release) {
var jscommand:String = "window.open('[URL]','win','height=550,width=830,toolbar =no,scrollbars=yes');"; getURL("javascript:" + jscommand + " void(0);");
}
The code is in 10 different buttons, each loading a different content for the same popup window. In Safari, if I click on the parent window and then click on another button, the popup window will come back on top of all other pages automatically, but it does not work with Firefox. In Firefox, the popup window will stay behind the parent window. I'd like for the popup window to be always centered on any screen.

View 8 RepliesWhat I would like is to keep my original movie size (800x600) but have it centered both horizontally and vertically in the browser window. If the user expands the browser window, I'd like it to dynamically center itself both horizontally and vertically in the new window size.There is one that fits what I need, but it doesn't work properly. [URL]The current result when I use this in the HTML file is that everything is enlarged past the window size (and I end up with scroll bars), and the flash item is not centered.
View 5 RepliesI found a page that launches a full-screen browser window with a SWF in it. This SWF is non-resizable, and it is centered inside a browser window in such a manner, that both bottom AND TOP get cut off if the screen size is smaller than that of a flash file.Usually an embedded SWF would be tied to top left corner of the browser window in case of a smaller screen. In other words, top edge and left edge of a SWF file would always start at 0, 0 if the screen is too small. URL...Java script on the index page launches the full-screen browser window. But what makes the movie inside that window perfectly centered, even on a smaller (i.e. 800x600) screen, letting its BOTH bottom AND TOP edges be clipped? Is there some flash code for it? I couldn't find anything in the html code.
View 14 RepliesI used the tutorial to create a centered popup window as explained in the tutorial below http:[url].... , and it worked just fine in IE and Thunderbird.What i wanted to do next was to make that popup fill the entire screen, and I did that by changing the width and height values in the AS to screen.width/height, and that worked perfectly in Thunderbird, but it doesn't work in IE.
PS. The status bar at the bottom of the window stays there no matter the value I assign it in both of the browsers; why is that?
I'm using the centered pop up window script from: [URL]. I have multiple buttons in my flash movie which open screenshot html pages in external browser windows. The script works fine except when a popup window stays open. The rest of the buttons don't open/replace past that one popup. I tried changing the window name in the onRelease script to screen1, screen2, etc for each button, but that didn't work.

I failed to make Alert.show() work in this situation. Seems that there is no alert() either.Is there any way to show an alert prompt (modal or nonmodal) in such a situation without reinventing the wheel?Example AIR tray application skeleton:

View 2 RepliesI have a function that checks for something when the user clicks a button. if that something is found, an alert comes up saying that it has been found and asks them if they would like to allow this to happen, or undo the action that caused the something to be found. the code looks like this:
Alert.show(thisString1, "Conflict: Multiple Projects", 3, this, conflictAnswer);
upon pressing "Yes" or "No", the conflictAnswer function will be called... it looks like this:

I am trying to style the Alert window on an external file but I get the following warning and the style won't be applied, keep in mind that the Alert is being called from an external AS file as well so the code is not embedded in the MXML.

I am having an issue where I show an AlertBox message when the user hits ENTER and the focus is in a text area. The pop up works fine, but when the user hits enter the Alert closes as expected, but the TextArea listener receives the ENTER event from the Alert and pops the dialog up again. I have tried a number of ways to catch and eat the event but so far I have not been lucky. Is there way to accomplish this?

I'm making some custom controls/components and I have an issue with package paths. I know what I want, but don't know how to do it. I'll try to illustrate with code:
PHP Code:
package {
public class Test extends Sprite {
public function Test() { // let's make some instances...
//I'll use full path names to avoid imports
var _one:ClassOne = new domain.controls.ClassOne();
[Code] .....
This is all ok, works and stuff. But as you can see code is awefull. And If I make import statements:
import domain.controls.Style;
import domain.controls.classTwo.Style;
I'd still have a mess in code, since I'd have to use full paths.
Now, I would like to simplify things, but keep it clear also. Lets say I'm making a component that uses several controls. I want to make package part of the assignment statement, like:
Code:
import domain.controls.*;
......
// inside my component
test1.style = Style.DEFAULT;
test2.style = classTwo.Style.RED;
But this is not working. I was thinking about making some kind of proxy class/variable/object named classTwo.
