ActionScript 3.0 :: External Interface Call Doesn't Work With Function That Is On External JS File

Apr 17, 2012

I am using in AS3 "External Interface ". When I call the JS function that is on the same page as swf everything works fine.

I added a link in the html page to an external JS file, when I move the JS function to the external JS file the website crushes.

I would prefer to have all my JS functions on an external file so I can use them in the future in other project and it also makes it easier for me to update the site.

how to call a JS function that is on an external file from AS3?

Professional :: AS 3.0 - Using External Interface Call To Open PDF

Oct 7, 2010

Using Flash - AS 3.0: I am trying to use ExternalInterface.call to open a .pdf file - but it is not working - nothing is happening...

ExternalInterface.call ("window.open","diagrams/v1/crh.pdf", "WindowName", params);
But this line DOES work - call an .html file to open.
ExternalInterface.call ("window.open","m5_quiz/v1/quiz.html", "WindowName", params);

I can't find any information that says this should or shouldn't work - it seems to me it should open it. To get around this - I have been using 'navigateToURL' to open the pdf file - but that triggers the pop-up blocker - using the External Interface call does not.

ActionScript 2.0 :: SWF Object / External Interface Call

Jul 26, 2007

I am currently just finishing a project and I am having a big time problem with an ExternalInterface call. My application runs fine but when the javascript call is being made from flash using external interface, IE is going from the "Done" message, to showing the "!" icon, with "error on page" as the message. There is no error that is showing up in Firefox.

The current error I am seeing is an 'Unterminated String Constant', which wouldn't be a problem except for that it appears on line 1... which is [URL]

ActionScript 2.0 :: Call A Window.close With External Interface?

Oct 14, 2009

Currently I'm trying to call a window.close with external interface. It works fine, however, I also have a window.beforeunload call in my javascript so the close button ends up calling two windows. One is the "this page is trying to close...blah blah blah" and the other is the custom one i wrote.

Is there anyway to call onbeforeunload combined with window.close from external interface so that i only get one warning?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Loading External Jpgs Into A Dynamically Created MC?

May 18, 2009

Essentially, I've got a MC container that's created dynamically based off an XML file (basically for every <title></title> I've got, it makes a new "card"). Now within the context of each <title></title> grouping I've got <imgs></imgs> in which I specify the path to images that are related.All of that works perfectly, save for the external jpg files actually appearing on the stage. The MC I add them to does, but the external image doesn't.My problem is- I can't add the external images until they're completely loaded (or so it appears). The thumbnail BG I use is blank. So I know for a fact that the thumbnail BG isn't occluding the loaded thumbnails.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Call Javascript Function With JSON Through External Interface?

Jun 6, 2010

I need to call a function in JS that's expecting a JSON object. Can I do this from External Interface? The company's example (after the include file url) in HTML looks like this:

//there's an js include URL earlier//
Shopwithme.Initialize({
"id":"prod1234",

[code]...

But, I need to dictate these vars through Flash. How do I call this function using External Interface?This is my EI code, but I'm obviously off base, since it's not working:

ExternalInterface.call("Shopwithme.Initialize",[{ "id":"prod1234",
"type":"2","URL":"http://www.somelink.com"}]);

What do I need to do to call this javascript?

ActionScript 3.0 :: External Interface / Javascript Call Working In IE / Safari Not FF / Chrome

Apr 24, 2011

I'm hitting a brick wall here, and it's driving me mad. Used to use ExternalInterface to call Flash functions from Javascript all the time, and now under CS5 (and the way it uses object id's instead of embed in html) it's stopped working for me in certain browsers. I put together a really simple program that has the person click a link in the browser that activates a javascript function that simply sends some text in to Flash to display in a TextArea. Here's the as3 code:

ActionScript 2.0 :: Load External Movies From Dynamically Created Buttonsd?

Jul 2, 2007

I'm dynamically creating buttons for review to the user. The buttons are determined from test questions that they missed and the missed questions are stored in an array called categories. There can be multiple instances of the same name inside the category array so I'm weeding them out into the holder array so that there is only one occurrence of each category. The problem lies with my onRelease section of the code. All of the buttons and labels are created fine but the buttons don't do anything

ActionScript 3.0 :: Targeting Dynamically Created MC Within Another Dynamically Created MC?

Feb 17, 2010

I'm dynamically creating movieclips with dynamically created movieclips inside them and am having trouble with targeting them.Below is a simplified example of what I'm trying to achieve, in the real file there are a lot more movieclips and I'm creating and naming them with a for loop.

This one is just one Sprite created inside another sprite. I can target the top level sprite named "testname". However when i try target the nested MC it throws an error.The bottom couple of traces are just test MCs I've made to make sure i got the syntax right, on targeting nested movieclips.

PHP Code:

var holder:Sprite = new test1();holder.name = "testname";this.addChild(holder);var holder2:Sprite = new test2();holder2.name = "testname2";holder.addChild(holder2);trace(getChildByName("testname").x); //this one traces finetrace(getChildByName("testname").getChildByName("testname2").x);//this throws up an errortrace(testclip1.x);trace(testclip1.testclip2.x);

JavaScript :: External Interface On Flash Player Not Working On CDN

Oct 5, 2010

I have a flash player with an external javascript interface: reloadData() I'm calling that function via Javascript when editing information on the page - basically to keep data on the page and in the player in synch. The reloadData() function works fine when the player is hosted locally. When we move it to the CDN (Amazon Cloudfront), the player loads successfully, but the external javascript interface no longer works - console.log(player) reveals the following:

<object type=,"application/x-shockwave-flash" data="[our_cloudfront_url].swf" width="920" height="404" id="player" style="visibility:visible;">
Uncaught TypeError: Object #<an HTMLObjectElement> has no method 'reloadData'

I know there are a lot of things that behave differently when working with items on a CDN, but we're using a CNAME to point to the cloudfront distribution

Javascript :: External Interface Calls To Flash Not Working In IE9?

Jan 31, 2011

We have a flash game embedded in a web page (using SWFObject v2.2) and there are some links on the page that call into the flash in the following manner:

window.document["flashObjectId"].flashMethod();

This has worked great on all browsers we have tried including IE7 and 8, however on IE9 it generates the following error: "SCRIPT438: Object doesn't support this property or method".

It does work in compatibility mode so I tried adding a meta tag to tell IE9 to use compatibility mode by default, however that didn't work because our game runs in an IFrame within Facebook.

I have tried referencing the flash object every way I could think of in the Javascript but I always get that same error message in IE9.

Actionscript :: Way For Javascript To Command Flash Right When Its External Interface Is Ready?

Jan 22, 2011

Is there a non-polling way for Javascript to command Flash right when its external interface is ready? In Actionscript, I've registered a function for Javascript to call:[code]SWFObject lets you run code when Flash has been successfully embedded through a callback. I attempt to run $ ('flash Player'). doStuff in this callback, but it claims it's undefined. It seems that Flash needs some time to boot up its external interface. So I've been using a polling hack to find out when the external interface is ready:[code]There's a visually perceptible delay in the execution of doStuff and it makes my overall code structure muddy.

Is there a way to view the AS 3 code that Flash CS3 is creating? To be a little bit clearer about what I'm asking let me make the parallel with Dreamweaver. If you need to create an HTML table in Dreamweaver you can click the table icon at the top, configure your table, and then you can see in the code window the <table width= height=..> <tr> etc. that has been created dynamically by the software.I know its not a straight forward feature built into Flash or I would have found it but I was wondering if there is some surreptitious way of extracting the code.
