This is weird because I cannot see how a browser can have any affect on a SWF file animation. This SWF contains masking of images. The SWF appears perfectly in Safari, and for some strange reason, one of the three masks is not applied when viewing the SWF in IE (as if the image is 'released').
View 1 RepliesI have 4 shapes which fit into 4 boxes and would like to modify my code so when a shape is placed in the correct box a movie clip appears e.g. if a triangle is placed into a triangle shape the movieclip for triangle appears. if the shape is placed into the wrong box a message appears saying try again.

i found out when i add a dynamic mask to my preloader progress bar (for transition out) its not scaling correct. I think its because my bar isn�t tweening to the correct "stageWidth" during progress until it completes. I setted it up like that:
// Preloder Progress Bar
Code:
bar.scaleX = 0;
bar.graphics.beginFill(0xff3333,1);
bar.graphics.drawRect(0,0,stage.stageWidth,4);
[code]....
Somehow it looks like 100% of the loading progress doesn�t represent the entire stageWidth so my bar animation finishes some pixels before reaching stageWidth end. NowJust noticed it now after adding a dynamic mask to my preloaders progress bar.
Maybe the title is not self explanatory but in most iphone games eg you click the correct example and you see a +100 points mc appear and rise and alpha out. I did this with a png done in photoshop BUT not all goes well - it doesn't work.

It seens perfct but I can't see it work. The funny thing is that the custom currentBubble - with a dot after you see the code hints but a dot after pb100 - you see no code hints. Well not normal.
what i am doing is to make something along the lines of the "scriptable mask" tutorial Inigo was kind enough to put up.My idea is to have a large mask behind the whole of my flash site, this masks a colour image with a black & white one (nothing tricky). The image I am using is actually 5 separate images combined, and each is a pic of certain parts of the site.I also have a very basic set of buttons along the bottom... each corresponding to each section.
All I want is to set it up so that when I mouse over the buttons, the _x of the mask moves to correspond with the correct image... really very basic... or so I thought .If anything it should be easier to do than what is in Inigo's tut (where he uses the _x of the mouse to move the mask)... i just cant seem to get it to work with a nice easing effect (its easy to get the mask to simply snap to each coordinate, but I need it to smoothly move).
I'm trying to get the depths of all the blocks to be at the correct levels at the correct times so that the 3d effect is maintained. I've tried many things, but have had little success. All the instances of the blocks are stored in an array, but since it's adding them in accordance with when they're added to the stage, it doesn't help me locate them to swap depths. Is there a way to arrange them by location on the board?
View 4 RepliesI've concluded that I have to use several Loaders. At first I was thinking "oh well I just use sixteen loaders", but do I have to? Maybe I should create only eigth of them? Then I found this tutorial. If I'm correct I just have to create eight Loaders, then addChild to correct img1/img2?
View 1 Repliesi have a question about the mouse down / mouse move events in Flash. I've developed a small intreractive that requires mouse co-ordinates to be captured when the mouse is down and when the mouse is moved anywhere on the screen. It was working fine like this until recently when I checked my interactive in Safari and it no longer recieves mouse co-ordinate information when the mouse cursor leaves the Flash interactive stage area.However, it still works fine in Firefox. Is there anything I can do to get this functionality back when using it in Safari?

I created a Flash-XML photo gallery and the transitions are all working on all browsers except for Safari 4.0.3 with Player 9.0 (i tested with 3.1.2 with Player 9 and works ok).I used _alpha functions to fade in/out photos and tracking the _width & _height of photos to position them on center of the screen etc. I've noticed on Safari 4.0.3 that photo's are not positioned where I want them - so I'm guessing the width and height are not determined (or could be any other reasons). Transitions also not working, instead of gradually fades in, the changes are abrupt.

I have noticed this bug when developing my flash application on a windows platform.

View 4 RepliesEver since Flash Player 10 came out, the debugger version causes what seems like a crash in my browser, either Safari or Firefox, on Mac OS X. It's been consistently happening with 10.0, 10.1 and 10.2. And it's not just on the applications I develop. Six or seven times out of ten, when I visit sites like Gamespot with Flash video delivery and a banner ad or two, the debugger kicks out an error and, upon dismissing that error, I can't regain focus of my browser. Clicking a window does nothing but trigger the Mac OS X error sound. I have to force-quit and start again.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to load an iframe into a div via ajax. The iframe serves Flash content.
There are four divs (above each other) with the same Flash-through-iframe implementation, and I show and hide these divs to correspond with the user's navigation. This works well, except in Safari. I triple-checked my JavaScript that toggles the divs (using display: none and display: show), but it doesn't work in Safari.
I am having a problem in Safari 4 on Mac running Flash Player 10. Really slow! I'm using some 3D features of Flash (3d rotation). The animation plays smoothly in all other browsers.
I've installed the latest updates to Flash player, and all the same.
I have a html page that has a flash movie embedded in it. In the movie, when a button is pressed, it passes variables to a PHP script, processes them and then sends the variables back to the movie (all behind the scenes)... It works perfectly in Firefox, but in Safari 2.0.4 (for mac) nothing happens when I press that button...looking at the 'Activity' window in Safari, it shows the url to the php file and beside it '0 bytes of ?' indicating that it can't locate or process the page properly.
Has anyone else encountered this?
The strangest thing is that I just tested it on my older mac laptop which has Safari 1.3.2 on it, and it worked fine! ... I've never had problems with php on the 2.0.4 version of Safari before (being run on an intel iMac) ... and I tried it on another iMac in here, and it didn't work on it either!... so it must just be that version of Safari for some reason..? and I also tested this file on a PC with both IE and Firefox and it worked fine..so I'm confused as to what could be going on.
I have a startDrag function set up on a loader and mask that when the mouse is down on the loader it drags, when not it doesn't. There is also 2 buttons that control whether mask1 or mask2 is used. What i would like however is when the mouse is down - the area of the loader outside of the mask is visible but only by about 10/20% alpha, that way the user can see where all the image is while dragging. Is this possible? Full code can be seen below and i have attached the zip with the .fla file:

// Edit: The issue now appears to be confined to Safari for Windows.
Around the time Safari for Windows 4 came out I started hearing from users that wmode=transparent was no longer working in Safari.I have tried reducing interference by using tags as opposed to scripts to embed the Flash but with no success.An example is here: [url]... alternately embedded with script at http://hiv411.org/
All videos use wmode=transparent and are embedded via tags. All work fine in every browser I have except Safari.Code looks like so on safari.php

I am loading external SWF files into my project at runtime. I am also using a cookie to store user information for returning the project to the user's last point of operation.These seem to be conflicting at the moment, as when the cookie file is not large enough for the desired storage amount, Flash requests for more space through the Settings dialog box. However, since the SWFs are loaded at run-time (for a dynamic experience), they appear to be loading on top of Flash's dialog box and are interfering with the dialog box. Not only will the user not be able to click an option behind certain loaded SWF children, but they won't be able to see it through them either.The red box is from a SWF file loaded at run-time.

View 1 RepliesIs there a major issue with rendering Flash in Safari?
I have search for a way to display, for example, Adobe Home Page in Safari and be able to see all the menus "on top" and have not found a solution.
I have tried setting wmode to either opaque or transparent but no change.

After several months of use, the sf's preloader in my site has an issue. I am having trouble recreating the issue.There are 2 files, loader.swf, and external.swf.The first, gets the bytes of the second, displays a progress percentage, and loads the external upon completion.I used the Adobe Flash CS5 sample files to create the loader.Issue:On a Mac, running Safari 4.1.3 (this is all that I know), the progress bar would go all the way to 100%, but then freeze and not load the second swf.I have no issues in any of IE, Firefox, Chrome, or even Safari on any of my PC's/Macs/Adobe BrowserLab.The HTML page uses a combination of swfFit and swfobject to display the loader.
Has anyone ever heard of this issue?Could the swfObject/swfFit correctly load the first swf, but then fail with the Loader class within the loader.swf?Could the the fact that the swfObject minimum flash version check was version 8.0.0? Would a flash player 8.0.0 load an AS3 Flash 10.0 loader.swf, but fail on a more complex AS3 Flash 10.0 external.swf?Here is the loader's code:

I have a web application that has javscript interspersed through the page. What happens is that safari will dump the source of the javascript code instead of executing it. I can reproduce this consistently. The page is a mashup of different forms of content: It loads flash videos using osflv and is generated via a php script on the server side. In addition the page also contains calls to Google Map's API to display a map. The content is placed in separate tabs using javascript to provide tab interaction. I am also using mootools, and not sure if that is potentially causing issues.
Here are the javascript includes:
<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/mootools-1.2.1-core.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/mootools-1.2-more.js"></script>
