This might be a simple question, but I'll ask it anyways. I know when I update my flash website I have to clear the cache to view the changes. Now, will all users have to do that to see the new changes, or will the browser eventually detect changes and download the new version?
View 1 RepliesI updated the flash library XML/SWF (chart library) to the latest version on my web application but the users still see the charts with the old library which is saved in there browser cache.How can I force the browsers of my users to download the latest version of the SWF files.I can't add a parameter at the end of the SWF file like : charts.swf?v=1234.
If I do that I get an error because the chart library load dynamically other SWF files of the library. The charts.swf file will be the new version but the other files will still be from the older version and I will get an error...
I frequently update my website. But customers do not see immediately the changes as the cache displays the previous version.

View 1 RepliesI have a little problem when i update a page(swf) of a flash website. I use Filezilla to update new swfs and the strange thing is that new pages only appear after 3 to 5 days.Does anybody know the solution to that cache problem as it is annoying to update the new swfs and only see the result after 3 to 5 days
View 2 RepliesFirstly i am not sure if this is the correct forum, basically i have updated my flash movie on my website, and the updates have taken effect in mozilla and google chrome, however in IE 7 & 8 the old flash movie still displays. I get this is down to the cache and i have tried several code snippets to correct this but nothing seems to make a difference.Is there anything that i can do with the flash code to force the browsers to reload the the movie each time they visit?
View 2 RepliesSo I basically have used the fileReference class to allow the user to download a determined file if he wants to.
I use the file.download(URL) function and it works well.
However, the file is downloaded and saved to the hard drive using only the flash player. The browser is not aware of the download, and thus, if I want to show the progress of the download I'd have to make some progress bar myself. I know how to do it, but it would become really tedious and take too much UI space.
Isn't there a damn way in Flash to "send" a determined file to the browser so that it prompts the user to download it? It's an image file, so navigateToURL doesn't cut it since it will just display the image, both if I use a new tab or the current one.
Can someone please direct me to a good tutorial for beginners or explain the steps for creating a Flash website with an alternative html version. Do i create two sites? then use SWFobject to link them? I'm working with a purchased template that contains psd, html, css as well as the flash sources.
View 2 RepliesThis question is more about updating swf and xml files on the browser. I have a gallery site that has muliple swf files loaded on the master swf on button click. These swf files loads an xml file. My problem is that whenever I update the xml or swf file, the browser still has the flash cache stored so I have to manually refresh the file to see the changes. As in, I can't just refresh the index.html. I have to refresh the
/xml/filename.xml or /flash/filename.swf
Which works but then when other people view the site again, they won't know that they have to refresh the files because they don't know the file name or path. Know what I mean? I researched the net and found solutions like using index.php instead of html or using a random variable string like index.php?mod="34342234" but that only seems to update the master swf.
I have a strange issue where Flash Player in Chrome is not updating unless the browser is resized. The app is an online design tool, written in Flex, and one of the features allows the user to upload an image and crop it. The image loads fine, and the crop action does not reload the image but uses Bitmap.copyPixels to create the cropped version.When I test on localhost (though a local server not just straight from the file system) the issue does not happen. However on our QA server the image does not appear unless you resize the browser, when I suppose a screen refresh is forced.I've tried all the usual suspects in AS3/Flex to force a redraw, updateAfterEvent, invalidateDisplayList, etc.we came up with is to resize the browser by a pixel, but this is obviously not ideal and I'd prefer a solution to a work-around.Here's the Bitmap code for reference...
var cropData:BitmapData = new BitmapData( _crop.width, _crop.height );
var originalData:BitmapData = new BitmapData( _loader.width, _loader.height );
originalData.draw( _loader );[code]....
I want to know the type and version the browser that the user is running from within my Flex 4 application. I know I can get that information by using ExternalInterface to call Javascript. I know I can get that information from the server. I'm looking for a way to get that information directly from actionscript. I mean, isn't there a global variable or something that keeps this information?
View 1 RepliesI put a swf file on a website, then I made some changes and replace the old version. However, some browsers seem to have some kind of cache to remember the last swf file, they only show the old version instead of the new one. What can I do to stop the browser caching the old version?
View 9 RepliesWe have create a flash file for both Touchscreen TV and Website.The document frame is is 1920x1080 however we would like to export the project so it can be seen on the website at the correct compression.Is there a way to export the SWF to the required 945x532.I know how to export it in the HTML however this reads the same SWF that is still too large in file size (not web friendly).I could pull the compression down to say 10% before exporting the SWF however there must be a better method.

I would like to allow visitors to download flash files from my website.
I have the following code one my first button:
Code:
download_btn.onRelease = function(){
getURL("blankWebsite.exe");
}
This works fine and opens a 'Save', 'Open' or 'Cancel' pop-up box.
For button two (the xml file which visitors can use to populate the blank website they have downloaded) I have used the following code:
Code:
download2_btn.onRelease = function(){
getURL("template.xml");
}
However, rather than giving the option of saving the file (which is what I want) the file opens in a new browser window.
way to offer the 'Save', 'Open' or 'Cancel' options for the xml file rather than it opening immediately in a new browser window?
