I'll explain my scenario. I want to play a small sound at certain situation, so I would prefer initiating the play via jQuery. Also, I wish to make a toggle button for the sound. So, the user could turn ON/OFF the sound. So, I'm thinking about creating the toggle button and function for playing the sound inside the Flash. But I don't how to call this function (that I have written in Actionscript, which will start playing the sound) via jQuery ! Do you have some ideas ? I haven't done creating the Flash document, but bookmarked some tutorials and will start playing with it soon. :) The reason for choosing Flash is that it would be crossbrowser compatible.
How can I display alternate HTML with the jquery.swfobject plugin for browsers without Flash? I'm unable to find any documentation or examples showing how to do this.
I have a php/sql database that has thumb nails and videos in swf format and flv. On my html page I have an swf player. I have echoed the thumbnails and have the url of the videos. How can I get the video url playing on the player after a person clicks the thumbnail with out xml. Just by passing the url to the player.
I have hand some sucess with xml passing but this can`t work in this aspect. So I have been investigating jquery and other alternatives.
I've looked high and low for an answer to this and I'm hoping someone has an answer, or at least a tip on how to avoid it.I'm loading a static HTML file into a container via the jQuery load() method. This static HTML file has a script which loads a swf. When I load that particular file, I get the white screen of death (WSOD) and the page explodes and everyone in the room dies a horrible death.I've had this happen also when using the jQuery wrap methods (wrap, wrapOuter, etc.) when a swf is present.It seems manipulating the DOM with a container that has a swf object causes this. Does anyone have a solution or a way that I can prevent it happening?
I'm setting up a page that uses a flash menu to load html pages into a div container by the following call:
on (release){ getURL("javascript:getPage('test.html')"); }
The loading works fine, but some of my pages had specific jquery scripts and that's where I've struck out so far. I assumed all I needed to do was transfer the script importations, css stylesheets and the jquery functions to my main document, but it won't work.
I also tried importing the html as a the complete html, which works on it's own, but not when imported into the main document. Most recently I heard I should try shifting the jquery function calls to the end of the loaded document, to after the content, My scripts work, just not when imported, so I suppose my question is how can I make the main- and imported documents play nice with each other? What say you we make this a jump-start tutorial for all us noobs to reference?
I have created a SWF file that plays/stops sound. The SWF file works great when previewed in Flash CS4, but does not work when inserted in the HTML file.Here are the 2 files that are automatically generated when I INSERT>MEDIA>SWF in Dreamweaver CS4:
swfobject_modified.js expressInstall.swf Here is the ActionScript3 that I am using in the Flash file:
I have a very complex social networking system built using the Adobe Flex SDK. Since we are experiencing certain performance issues, I want to move it to a "light-weight" platform, the backend is PHP so its just the UI.
What are my other options if I don't want to use Silverlight ?
I was told I could use AJAX/jQuery, which I am not familiar with - are there any GUI designers available ?What kind of GUI designer can I use to design my UI ?
the thing i'm searching for my site is something that can show, and after 10 seconds, hide some html.Exactly is for a games site. I want to show ads during 10 seconds, and after this time, load the .SWF file of the game.During 10 seconds i want to show the window of the ad in the center of the field where later the game will be displayed. It's like a 700x500px window.One of the problems is that the ad window maybe 300x200px and i want to put it in the center. It's like i want to make a scene of 10 seconds with tha ad showing like the game is loading.I beg you to answer in a begginer level, i'm not expert in scripts, just know some html, that's why i'm a bit overwhelmed with the info i found in the net.
Im working on a slideshow based on the jquery cycle plugin (found here: [URL]. The slideshow slides between different divs where I can put different content such as images and text. However i'd also like to add swf movies to the script wich just on a basic overview works. The video starts playing when the slide becomes visible but stops before it's done and goes over to next slide.
Of course this happens since i have a timer for how long each slide should be visible. What i wonder though is if there's a way with the script for it to dynimacly get the length of the video and not change slide until the video is complete and just do this for swf videos.
Is there a solution to have the background audio/music play across multiple page on a website, WITHOUT restarting on every page load.The website currently uses a frameset, but I'm looking for an alternative.
when you go to the home.html page an animation will play from start and then stop at the end of it. However, for all other pages i.e contact.html aboutus.html we need the animation to skip to the end straight away and not to play the whole animation through. I was thinking this would be controlled by a variable or some kind of external text file ect. Basically in the first frame the actionscript needs to basically say
"if this html page is aboutus.html then go to the last frame and stop" and with the index page it would say "if this html page is index.html then keep playing"
I am a web designer and I do like to hand code using jquery however, I think it would be much faster to use gui applications like flash to create animations especially on the fly as well as support for writing and editing source code.
I'm using the HTML5 JW Player. It sizes the HTML5 video correctly, but shrinks the Flash fallback player; here's an example page: Test Page
If you view that page in IE, you'll notice that on panel 5, the video is smaller than the space it's supposed to occupy. On Firefox, it works fine because it's using the OGG video in its HTML5 video player.Is there a way to resize the Flash video via JavaScript/jQuery to fit the same space as the HTML5 video?
I want to use a sound loop in my flash movie. The movie has many scenes. And the problem is that when I go to next scene or different scene I hear the sound repeating twice. I mean sound does not stop from first scene and begins from the different scenes.Is there any way to play sound like "stop all sound" option in Flash.
I have a flash animation of a glowing orb.Orb should always be dark, but should glow when i hover over menu items.SWF file is written using actionscript3.And menu looks something like this
I want my orb to glow whenever i hover over menuitem class. Should I link with jQ or should I create another SWF file for the menu and then link them together (if so, how do I do that).
I've been trying to do as the client requested : redirect to campaign page then to destination page once a customer clicks on the top banner in swf format.If you are using Firefox, Chrome or Safari, I suspect you can reach the destination page.However, if you are using IE or Opera, I doubt it.I think to cause of such a weird problem is:The swf ojbects don't have a link to url, SO I have to hack the theme template file like this :
<div id="header">'; /* * A quick and dirty way to put some swf into PHP, and rotate among them ...
i am using jw player to play an flv file including captions. this seems to work fine. but now i need to play a ad before my flv file starts playing? or can we play flv files one aftre the another using jquery or any other idea?
is it possible to get any information/text from JQuery Alert or a simple textbox (per ID)?
My Problem: I took a picture in Air 2.5, save it to my disk, load a locale HTML file with the new picture and JQuery detects faces on it. Then I place the coordinates of the face into the html box or show it in an alert box. How is it possible to get these coordinates from HTML/JQuery? Facedetection with JQuery needs 1-2seconds in the browser.
PS: I want to do this without php. only air, flash, HTML or JQuery or another Plugin (without an extra server/apache).
The administrative portion is where our super users can either define a location as a numbers of rows, with a number of seats in each ( ie a cinema/concert lokale). The other option they have should be a much more flexible "seating" arrangement. Here we want the superuser to be able to upload an image and then draw places (ie a camping place). The user portion is either a simple page with all the rows of seats drawn or a view of the image with the drawn places overlaid. The user should then be able to choose a number of "tickets" and select places. For the fixed map, we want the tickets to be sticky (ie if you choose 3, they should be seated besides each other if possible?
I need to autoplay youtube video as I click on its thumbnail.Since IE doesn't support <EMBED> tag I need preset all needed values in <OBJECT> and then create a new object with my parameters.So I did something like this:
var $newObject = jQuery('<object><param name="play" value="true"/>' + $oldObject.html() + '</object>'); // preparing virtual object on the fly. $thisObject.html($newObject.html()); //Creating new object
I have a long mp3 file hosted on a standard apache server (30 minutes long so far, but I would like it to work with longer sounds too).I'd like to start playback of this audio within at a specified point. When attempting to use Flash Actionscript 3, my basic tests show that ALL the audio from the start to the position I choose is buffered before playback (Sound.bytesLoaded was my friend here). If I start one second in, it takes about 3 seconds to start playback, 30 seconds in, takes about 25 secondsObviously with a really long mp3, like skipping playback to the middle of a 3-hour audiobook, this isn't going to be practical.Here's the ActionScript 3.0 code I'm using:
button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, function():void { var s:Sound = new Sound(); var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://example.com/audio.mp3");
It's possible to play a sound file through AS, either by loading it from a folder or import it to flash. It's also possible to play a dynamic tone with flash.media.Sound + writeFloat.
But... is it possible to play a sound file with flash.media.Sound + writeFloat in some way? I want to play a sound file without having to deal with any files except the .swf!
I am currently building a custom jPlayer instance for a streaming media file. Having modified a supplied demo, I am able to get the player working in all major browsers except IE.
I have checked the swf path many times, which is loading without fault. I think I am unable to get the trigger to load the file in IE, resulting in "Attempt to issue media playback commands, while no mediaurl is set. Use mediaurl() to set. Context play()".
I am using an event trigger CSC class to play the media "track" in my source code (not mediaurl directly).
Below I will demo the current code, however I feel it would be more beneficial if someone could construct some pseudo code for me outlining the exact requirements to get this to work, and also an explanation of the GUI button CSS handles, so that I can get these working properly too (I may need to modify the JS, which is currently the standard).
I am using IE8 32 w/ Flash 8 and jPlayer 2.1.0
I only need the following functions:
Play button (jp_play?) - this should trigger the stream and then enable multiple other classes (jp_volume, jp_playline, jp_stop etc)
Stop button (to replace play button) - should stop (not pause) the stream and disable previously enabled classes.
If it helps jp_pause gives me all the required functionality with regard to hiding elements, except the mediaurl is paused, I need it stopping.
Current code snippets:
// Instance jPlayer my_jPlayer.jPlayer({ ready: function () {
