I have this issue where if I append a swf file using SWFObject, it ignores my css rules for z-index. I have tried to set the parent container, the swf file, and everything around it;
View 2 RepliesI have the following divs and I'm trying to make the iframe layer infront of my_flash. It's a common problem and I've read through all the solutions I could find and still I'm getting issues in IE8. I'm using SWFobject by the way.
Here's the source:
<script type="text/javascript">
swfobject.embedSWF("index.swf", "my_flash", "100%", "100%", "8.0.0");
swffit.fit("my_flash",900,650);

I have a flash file that loads in a external swf. That swf contains a form that I want to control the tab order on. The external swf has form fields in it, and I have their tab indexes set. When I hit tab, flash ignores the flash index, and focuses on some of the navigation elements of the parent .swf. What am I doing wrong?
View 0 RepliesWith swfobject 2.2, how do you specify the desired version of flash you require? I need flash 10, but swfobject won't perform an upgrade install with the provided expressInstall. swf in the swfobject 2.2 distributable. How do I get an upgrade install to occur for flash 10?
View 1 RepliesI downloaded SWFObject & it came with several files.... it has one swfobject.js file in the root dir & another in the "src" directory.... their file size differs so I'm wondering which one I have to include in my header?
View 2 RepliesI have a flash file with an xml file as flashvars. when I use this code it works in every browser, but not in IE 7 or higher.
OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"
WIDTH="530" HEIGHT="410" id="usa_locator" ALIGN="">[code]....
After reading a lot, SWFObject seem to be a good option. All u need to do is:
1- Include swfobject.js in header
2- Create an empty div for the flash object to be included
<div id="myContent">
<p>Alternative content</p>
</div>[code].....
The only problem I have is: I don't know how to pass the flashvars via a url for an xml file. It seems to me that SWFObject does not support this. Instead, you need to create a list of flashvars as
var flashvars = {
name1: "hello",
name2: "world",[code]....
I'm trying to embed my .swf file with swfobject, and pass the parent html code to the flash file as a string. Here is the javascript code:
Code:
// FLASH EMBED
// Page Title
var parent1 = document.getElementById('pageTitle');
var flashvars = {};
flashvars.parentXML = parent1.toString();
var params = {};
params.scale = "noscale";
params.salign = "tl";
params.wmode = "transparent";
var attributes = {};
swfobject.embedSWF("flash/pageTitle.swf", "pageTitle", "510", "150", "9.0.0", "expressInstall.swf", flashvars, params, attributes);
Everything works fine until I use the toString() function in the flashvars line, which breaks the code and causes the .swf file to fail loading.
I have four buttons in flash and only one of them work. I have attached the fla file and an index page in a zip file. It seems only one button will work at a time.

Code:
var l:Loader = new Loader();
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loop);
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, done);[code].......
i have tried other different codes and it just won't load the file, i've tried to load in other files and it works without any glitch at all..so i'm wondering if there is any other way to load the .swf file into my index.swf file...
I was reading about Flex- JavaScript communication via ExternalInterface.But I had a doubt, it said that the javascript code should be written in the HTML file of the application ? Now which is this HTML file ? Is it the index.template.html file per project or the HTML file created per MXML application ?

View 3 RepliesSo, for sending to individual streams we have to reference the connected netStream we want to send to in some way like this:
sendStream.peerStreams[0].send("MyFunction",param1,param2);
and I have to determine which peer I'm sending to by their ID such as "peerID1234"
I know that you can check the peerID of the stream by doing:
sendStream.peerStreams[0]["farID"]
how can I make my send stream function know to use the array index where the peerID is?
so basically it could be like:
sendStream.peerStreams[where peerStreams[]["farID"] == peerID].send("MyFunction",param1,param2);
I have created a Flash intro for my website my hosting compnay is Godaddy and the only load certain types of index files. How do I either embed or publsih this swf file to display as whole screen. When I publish as intro.htm I only get a small window in the upper right corner.
View 1 Replieswhen I run index.html (loads the swf file) locally, the 'ID' is not changing when i resfresh the window. I clear browsing history and the ID changes when I resfresh. Is there a way to tell my swf file to ignore the browsing history so that it will change the ID number everythime I refresh the swf file? Is it because I'm using a textfiled to display it? this is the fla file the displays the ID
import com.actions.getXML.*;
var feed:XML;
var myText:TextField = new TextField();
var modelsXML:loadXML = new loadXML("localhost/a_test2/data.xml");

When I click the small icons on the left, the larger picture is supposed to show up in the right picture frame.

I'm not getting any errors. I've been over this code again and again. I based this on an exercise from Lynda.com. The code includes listeners for mouseup but the dragged object doesn't stop dragging when at mouse-up as directed. Also, the dragged object doesn't return to original position as directed.
Here is the main .as file:
Code:
private function checkTarget(event:MouseEvent):void

Today I tried to connect to other domain.I changed url of endpoint, but it looks like flex just ignores my changes.I am sure that an old url doesn't exist in any file in src directory,I even renamed services-config.xml to services-config2.xml, cleaned and rebuilded project many times, even made a release build, but it still connects to the same domain.I have tested flex application in localhost and in the same domain, that has AMF services, but it works in the same way.My services-config.xml is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

I'm using a pretty standard sortCompareFunction in my DataGrid:
ActionScript Code:
protected function compare(valA:*, valB:*):int {
if(valA < valB) {
[Code]......
The trouble of course is that the compare function isn't passed any info about the column being sorted, and apparently the datagrid's click handler fires AFTER the sort is applied so that's no good either.
Flash CS4 / AS3 project Everything is set up properly, including publishing (naturally) but Flash blows past every script in the actions layer, including simple one-line stop(); scripts.
View 5 RepliesI am currently working on a flash presentation and I have this code to play the slides:
Code:
MovieClip.prototype.playhead = function(dir) {
this.onEnterFrame = f
[Code].....
What happens is that when I press the leftBtn or rightBtn it plays the whole presentation, ignoring the stops I put in the MC. My mc has slides every 5 frames with tweens between them.
How can I make this and have my MC stop in every slide instead of just reading all at once?
i'm trying to add whitespaces in front of my text, but flex removes all but one whitespace from the text. So i can't format the text.
Here is the specified line:
<s:p> - Lorem</s:p>
<s:p> ipsulum</s:p>
Here its shown correctly but when running the swf it reduces the whitespaces of the second line. Of course i tried to use CDATA but this didn't work too.
Is there anyway I can do a hittest that ignores transparent pixels? If so how would I do it.
View 2 Repliesa few days ago i have started running across various errors and glitches in the app i am developing, and after a lot of time found out the following fact:
just as the title reads, flash started ignoring changes i make to classes i use, as if it has an internal cache of imported classes and refuses to check for changes. it notices when i remove class from directory, it notices when i comment out a whole function, BUT if i comment out the contents of all of the functions, leaving just their declarations, flash executes them "perfectly" well. where does it takes their contents from? how to delete the cache?
while trying to save a class at a certain point when i was dealing with this, i got a "sharing violation" error, that told me i cant save it.
With a looming deadline for a big project, I've just wasted an entire evening trying to find out why my application won't properly load image content when the .swf is deployed to a web server.
Here's what I'm trying to do:
- load a jpeg image from a different domain than where my .swf's are hosted
- turn it into a Bitmap object to apply smoothing
Loading the jpeg itself is no problem, as long as I do this:
[AS]addChild(loader);[/AS]
As soon as I try to access loader.content, or loader.contentInfo.content to create a Bitmap, Flash simply aborts the script.So there you have it: a typical security sandbox violation (although no error is ever thrown). Solution: crossdomain.xml! Or that's what I thought.Now the image host has a crossdomain.xml in it's root, with *.rocketclowns.com as an entry. I'm testing my app from www.rocketclowns.com.Even if I try to force load the policy file:
[AS]Security.loadPolicyFile()[/AS]
Or, with LoaderContext:
[AS]// create a loader context that
// checks for policy files
var context:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext();
context.checkPolicyFile = true;
// use the context with your call to load
myLoader.load(request, context);[/AS]
...I still can't access my loader.content.

So in my game, every 'enemy' movieclip creates a textfield that represents the name of the enemy.
