I have made a flash banner where there are 5 buttons.So I want that whenever I will click those buttons a light box will come out.For that I am using Fancy box.So how to call fancybox in a flash file?
View 2 RepliesI want to use fancybox from inside flash. I call a javascript function with
var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("javascript:callPopup()");
navigateToURL(url, "_self");
and
function callPopup(){ alert("works");}
which works fine. now I want to use this function to open my fancybox content.
the flash content is placed with swfobject. under the flashcontent-div I have my link to the fancybox-content:
<div id="micrositepopup">
<a id="popup" href="images/microsite/microsite.jpg">test</a>
</div>
and I call on pageload
$(document).ready(function() {$("a#popup").fancybox();});
when I click on the test-link all works fine. but how could I call the function
function callPopup(){ $("a#popup").fancybox(); } // not working
to open the fabcybox with the linked content?
I just tried to display a flash file and an image with Fancybox.
To imagine about what am I talking, take a look on the next snapshoot:
[URL]
fancybox to be loaded automatically on pageload with the .swf file and the .jpg .swf file to be centered as it is also on the example above .jpg file to be positioned on the right bottom of the screen/page
[Code]....
Can this be done, to show up 2 media files on a fancybox overlay at the same time?
I am using fancybox within a html page and I am calling an flv file via a swf file, plays fine locally and works via the web, the problem is that I need to link all of my assets with remote urls as I need to host the html elsewhere. So html hosted on server A and assets on server B. So my thoughts turn to adding the flash parameter to the query.fancybox-1.3.4.pack.js file and this is where I get stuck.url...I've located the object tag in the query.fancybox-1.3.4.pack.js file I just need to add the allowScriptAccess parameter.[code]
View 1 RepliesI have a number of fancyboxes on a page (one in each repeateritem) which show inline flash when a button in the appropriate repeater is pressed.In Internet Explorer the fancyboxes open correctly and show the inline flash.

The customer I am working for wants to display popup in an AIR application (designed in Flex 4).I will therefore use TitleWindow and PopupManager for this (or NativeWindow could be an option too).
Pretty basic, I can handle this.
Trouble is, this customer would like this popup to be looking as a Fancybox, that is, with the close button, slightly out of the popup.
I am trying to get a youtube video to play in a fancybox popup window. The popup window comes up okay, but the video does not play. Firebug indicates that all the necessary elements are loading, but no video.On this page everything works fine.On this page the window pops up but no video. Here is the html:
<div id="play-btn">
<a class="play-video" href="#flashArea1">Play Video</a>

I have to call a .swf having parameters from another flash file. I made this using:
var context:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext();
context.parameters = {
'param1': 'foo',
'param2': 'bar'
}
loader = new Loader();
[Code]...
But now I have the need to embed the .swf, not dinamically load from an external url.
I have a Windows DLL that I want my Flash file to call functions from, I've only seen native extension tutorials with Android and iOS, but not many for Windows. I have a tiny bit of programming experience with C++ and C if that helps (haven't got passed the Pointers yet, but I can read about them).
View 2 RepliesMy client says make this, and use XML so it's dynamic and easy to update:A text box with scroller holding news headlines, and a more link that will open an MC with the entire news article. Like:11/28/05 - X-Raided Celebrates 3 Years in Prison Folsom Correctional facility officers report that imprisoned rap artist X-Raided threw a party in his cell (with his cellmate) to celebrate his third anniversary in prison. Officials state.[code]
how to make that "more" link in the XML tell flash to run a specific function.I already have a function that makes whatever mc I want visible and I can write some code to fill in dynamic text boxes with the proper nodeData.But what would that "href=" have to be in the XML in order to call that function inside of flash. Is there a way you can turn XML data into executable commands?
How can I use sendAndLoad to call a php page with flash, and have that page create a user download box, to save a txt file? I have the php code that outputs a text file:
Code:
Header('Content-Type: application/octet-stream');
Header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=test.txt');
// Print the text to be sent
echo "hi";
That would force a download box if you ran the php page but the send and load will not get it to work.
if it is possible to launch a phone call from a Flash SWF File? If yes, is JavaScript involved ?
View 5 RepliesI'm trying to post a Quicktime movie into Flash CS3, but my FLV file looks AWFUL when compared to the original Quicktime video. When importing the Quicktime video, I've tried all kinds of settings. (Soreson Sparks was the worst.) I've changed the quality, the data rate, and the frame rate; I've selected "deinterlaced" and deselected "deinterlaced." I've changed the key frame placement and interval and left them alone. I am all out of ideas. I am grinding my teeth.
By creating some kind of var or something, is there any way I can call up a Quicktime video into Flash without actually converting it into an FLV file? It was suggested that I make an SWFObject2, How to make my video look better. I just want my video to look like it does in Quicktime.
How can I consume a webservice that hasn't explicitely created a crossdomain.xml? I understand it's for security and to prevent cross-site scripting, but it does seem like a major limitation to the Flex framework. For example, if I want to consume a webservice, which is suppose to be language agnostic, then I can't with Flex. The webservice/server has to be specifically prepared for Flex/Flash. If it's not, then it cannot be consumed.
View 3 RepliesIs there an actionscript class that can call an image that has just been uploaded onto the server and place it into a movieclip? Struggling to find a code as each image will have a unique number. Is there a code that can link into a php session that starts as the users uploads the image?
I have found several tutorials for loading data/text into flash using either the 'filereference class' or the 'moviecliploader' but these seem to need a string or a url for the data fro flash to get. Another option is to have the upload script in flash itself but i do not want this either.

View 3 RepliesI am trying to create Flash video for usb drives sold to customers with their pictures on it. After the video plays, can I have a link to a local folder, IE: named YOUR_IMAGES on the drive, and have that folder open on their machine when clicked? Or is there to many variables with what what the drive letter name that will be assigned on customers machines? So there will be the same .SWF on every drive sold, then a folder named the same thing with the customer pics on it.

I made a simpletext file and used the loadVariablesNum() script in flash to call that file into dynamic text boxes within my flash piece. that's all fine and dandy but now the problem is that I don't know how to make links in that simpletext document to link to specific parts of my flash movie. Basically, I need the simpletext document to have words that you can click that will take you to another frame that has another dynamic box in it with more text.

View 1 RepliesI need to get a javascript var in my Flash application. I like to be able to just set a variable in the javascript (client constraints) rather than define a function.
Can this be done? I am trying to use the ExternalInterface.call()
AS:
ExternalInterface.call("function(){return window.someVar}", null);
JS:
var someVar = "Test";
This does not work and I suspect it is because the ExternalInterface.call() does not like the anonymous function.
I have a function defined in JavaScript like so:
function fadeBack() {
alert("fadeBack called");
};
I call that function from my Flash file like so:
import flash.external.*;
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("fadeBack");
This works in both Safari and Chrome, but for some reason Firefox won't ever call the function. Still, I can't figure this out. How can I fix it?
i have some actionscript that makes a
ExternalInterface.call('someFunction');
call.is it possible to reference the html object that made the call to someFunction directly using the ExternalInterface.call call?
Assume that the object that makes the call also has some Callbacks (via ExternalInterface.addCallback) that are accessible via javascript.
Currently:
Actionscript source
ExternalInterface.call("someFunction");
ExternalInterface.addCallback("someCallback",someASfunction);
[code]....
We have been given some code that does a URLRequest call which is really slow to respond, so I was looking to make it pull the data from the page, as it is already on the page.[code]I have tried to replace it with this (actionscript is definitely not my forte):[code]I am using addCallBack as that is what the editor suggested via autocomplete, unfortunately it doesn't seem to work. Unfortunately I cannot go back to the developer at this time.The error message is:Call to a possibly undefined method addCallback through a reference with static type flash.external:ExternalInterface
