I would like to call a swf file which takes some parameters, but I do not want those parameters to visible on the client (let's say a secret authentication token or something like that).[code]...
But the flash parameters don't seem to be making it to the swf.
I am new to flash parameters but from the research I could find so far it seems that this should be fairly simple. I have a flash file that has a movie clip in it. In this movie clip there are two movie clips. What I need to do is show a one movie clip and hide another. I basically only need to set up the reading of the flash parameter code in flash...
var imageToShow:String;
var paramObj:Object = LoaderInfo(this.root.loaderInfo).parameters;
This is basically what I have... I'm not sure what to go on to next or if this is even correct.
Code:
if (parameter == "image1") {
image.image1.alpha = 1;
image.image2.alpha = 0;
}
I am using AS 3 Flash CS4, WIndows XP SP3. I am unable to use the Mouse.hide(); method in many of my scripts. If I add Mouse.hide() to a preexisting script, I get the following error; line1 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method hide through a reference with static type Class. If I add Mouse.hide():void; to a preexisting script, I get the following error: line1 Label must be a simple identifier Once this has happened, if I then remove ALL lines of script from the file...but leave the Mouse.hide(); [or Mouse.hide():void;], and also remove all objects from the stage, when I run the file, I still get those same errors.

I am trying to use load movie to pull in an external Flash file. ALl the external file is, is an image with a dynamic text field. My XML is
<feedbackImage xloc="100" yloc="200">feedbackHolder.swf</feedbackImage>
In Flash right after the XML loads I have
imgfeedback = myFeedback[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
feedbackHolder_mc.loadMovie(imgfeedback);
feedbackHolder_mc._visible=false
When Flash runs, the loaded swf shows up inside the holder and I am able to control the functionality of it....except I can't hide it. the _visible wont work. So I tried feedbackHolder_mc.unLoadMovie, which did hide it, but when I went to load again, the text I was trying to pass into the text box didn't show up. Basically I want this loaded and then hidden until a user gets feedback, at which time the loaded swf becomes visible. Hoping I can use the visible property.
I have MovieClip, created with CS5. Is there a way to hide (set visible = false) all it's children (objects which lie on movie clip) within AS3 code?
View 1 RepliesI was wondering, if I have a proprietary flash code (e.g: some cool animation which is really just client side stuff, its just example), and about to rewrite it using HTML5, is it possible to hide the code? or at least make it harder to see (unlike right click, view source, then you can just copy paste the code).
View 2 RepliesI have a question about hiding a flash button. I have 2 buttons (one for muting and one for unmuting). When I click on the mute one, I want to make it so that it hides the mute one and makes the unmute button visible and vice-versa. I have tried using the ._alpha on release for actions but its not working. I also tried using ._visible.
View 3 RepliesWhat I want to do is to pass parameters from the browser to flash. I searched and seems like the best way is FlashVars. However, I have tried different codes and can't get Flash to detect the parameters. I decided to follow the example here and just copy and paste the whole thing (just changing the "main.swf" to my swf name): [URL]. The flash loads, but it only shows "param:" without anything else. I gathered that it probably is a more fundamental problem. (e.g. the way I am debugging, or some settings, etc.) I am using CS4 trial version AS3.

does anyone know how to encrypt the parameters that are passed to a flash movie? The case is, that the user should not be able to read the parameters in the source code in plaintext.

View 1 RepliesI 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.

View 4 RepliesI have a flash map. There are 6 clickable countries on the map. When one clicks on a country I want html content to appear under the flash movie. As far as I can see the best way to accomplish this is to have all the content already under the flash movie each in a separate div, with display set to hidden. Then action script inside the country buttons calls a javascript function on the html when that button is clicked, to set display:block for corresponding content filled div. I've tried a few scripts but couldn't get it working.
<code>button_kenya.onRelease = function ()
{
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("kenya");
};</code>
Is there anything else i should do when imbedding flash into my page so that the flash can talk to the html and call the javascript?
Is there a way to hide the controls on a flash video (flv) until the user scrolls over the video? So the page opens, the video starts playing (still no controls visable) and then when a user scrolls over the video, you then see the controls for the first time. I have searched high and low.
View 7 RepliesI have a swf file that has numerous buttons on it, and when I hover over them images appears. But when my images appears, I have other buttons (whose layers are on top of this current button layer) also appear on top of my images. I tried merging all my buttons onto one layer, but that doesn't seem to work either.
How would I be able to not make those other buttons appear on my hover state without using ActionScript?
I'm making some executable / projector files in Flash CS5. Using CS4 I was able to stop the menu appearing by using flash.system.fscommand("showmenu", "false");
It doesn't work in CS5. Is it a bug? Or a feature? It's incredibly annoying - how do I get rid of the menu without resorting to an external projector program or without having to use AIR?
I have written a modal using jquery UI and it appears at the front of a flash movie thus the html inside the modal becomes corrupt, I tried to hide the movie right before modal gets triggered and reappears after closing the modal, works well but each .hide() and .show() the flash movie gets resetted while all I want is to hide (without removing the movie) and displaying it once it is triggered to .show that modal div.

View 1 RepliesI need to be able to transmit data from a Flash browser application to a PHP file on a web server, both securing and validating the data whilst and at the same time trying to prevent unauthorised creation of the message. (I want to try and ensure that the message comes from the application, not a user sending a message via another means).
In a C++ application I would Salt the data, and send the hash of the data along with it, and then validate the hash against the data to ensure integrity and source.However, in Flash (& Java), applications can be decompiled so that the source code is viewable. So if I used this method, someone could (relatively) easily find the salt, and then create a 'valid' message of their own to send outside of the application.
Is there any way I can 'hide' this salt code to help secure the transmission? Yes, I know there are code obfuscators, but they don't fully hide the code, just add another layer.Or is there another method entirely that could be used to transmit data and validate the source & content at the PHP end?
Im using show/hide to load a 'loading' flash file whilst a form loadsThe div im trying to show contains an swf fileThis works fine in all browsers except safari, which does not show the swf file upon clicking the submit buttonIm using...

I have a flash file in a div. This div is set to visible (display:block;). The div has two sister divs. All three divs are controlled by custom built jQuery tabs, so when another tab is clicked, the currently visible div turns display:none;. When the tab is reclicked to set the flashes div to display:block, the flash file loses all its values that are stored (for example in a textarea, all the text gets reset, and where a element stores a path to the image, that gets reset).
I have tried other methods like width:0; height:0;, which sort of works, but as the flash file is larger than the other two divs, it is still visible underneath. So then I tried overflow:hidden; but the same issue still occurs as above (losing values).
visibility:hidden isn't applicable as there is a large white space where the flash file should be.
position:absolute; top:-800px; left:-600px; loses variables.
border: 0; clip: rect(0 0 0 0); height: 1px; margin: -1px; overflow: hidden; padding: 0; position: absolute; width: 1px; also loses variables.
Is there any other method I can use? I have wmode=transparent aswell.
Below is the code of my flash embed:
