Is there a way to rewite (or hijack) an absolute URL request made from a flash (swf) file in a browser?I have a flash application that is requesting URL..The code in the flash application cannot be changed but I want to be able to either use another flash or some javascript to write that URL as the image is beging requested - to something like URL...
View 1 RepliesWhen Flex application make an asynchronus HTTP request, does it add a special header to the request, like some JavaScript framework does? Something that indicates whether this request is an AJAX call/not.I just want my server side code to return different response format, depending on whether the request is made from browser/flex.

View 3 RepliesWe have a really strange problem with a piece of Fluorine integration we've built.We have a form with a Captcha on it; the Captcha image is populated from a .Net/AMF webservice inventively titled GetCaptchaImage.ashx and can be reloaded from a text hyperlink within the Flash.
In some versions of IE (particularly IE8, but it may also be others), irrespective of IE version emulation and wmode, clicking the text link causes the HTTP call to our Fluorine gateway successfully to be made, but the call to the webservice does not follow it. Inspecting the HTTP transactions with Microsoft Fiddler, [code]...
why on earth that second call wouldn't be making it to the webserver? I can't see why the Flash wouldn't be issuing the HTTP GET but, equally, I can't think of any reason why a browser (let alone just this browser) would be suppressing it. I'm not a Flash developer (I run the .Net team here),
this are from the appClass
ActionScript Code:
public var fileUploadBox:VBox;
can i create a vbox even if i am not in flex? or maybe create a class making what i need?
ill place the parts where it is used to let know what functions are used.
ActionScript Code:
fileUploadBox.addChild(fu);
fileUploadBox.removeAllChildren();

and for the last, there are some functions defined like private function get example
what about get? is that flex or can i use in flash too?
thx! this is from a multiple file uploader which i was creating on my own in flash but was having trouble, and then i found this one, this is the link to it.

I have a application developed in flex deployed on server. In the application data is filled by user and saved in cookies so as to be available even when the user closes the application. However if new version of application is released the user can still access the older version saved in the cahe. How can it be assured that whenever a new version of application is released the application is loaded from the server and not from the cache and at the same time data saved in the older version (in cookies) can also be accessed in the new version.
View 2 RepliesI allow my users to upload files from a directory. I use SWFUpload so that they can upload multiple files easily. However, I need to get the absolute path of the directory from which they are uploading.A little research tells me that it can't be done in plain HTML/Javascript or in Flash.Java applets seem to support this, so that's what I'm planning on using. I guess ActiveX can also do it, but I don't know much about ActiveX stuff, so I would rather avoid it.Also, I can assume that the users are using Windows (XP or greater) and IE.It there an easier way (other than writing a Java applet) that I'm missing? Having the user type in the directory into a textfield is an option, but not a very good one.

View 2 RepliesI am putting together a website that uses a templating system. It contains a plugin that lets users upload/share music files so anyone can listen to them via the website's flash player.
It works with mp3 files only. Is there a way to make the player play other formats such as wav, wma, mp4, etc?
I have got a flex app that communicates with a Scorm-API.When i run a javascript function from flex with "adl.nav.request" , i have to make a terminate function to make it happen which unloads the whole system,becouse this function updateds an "imsmanifest.xml" file. This xml is updated this time. This xml contains all the items that are connected to the index.hml which runs the flex app. That is why its refreshes. But i don't want my flex application to restart too.

I have a flash file that sends some request to php file every 5 minutes. How can I check if the request from flash file has been sent from my website or from other place. I want to be shure that someone is not sending requests from other locations. It is very important for security reasons. Will the following PHP code work?

I'm trying to reproduce a POST request that was captured from WireShark using PHP. This POST request was sent by a Flash (.swf) object, so it's a little bit complicated in configuring the header.It does not print out anything in the end, so there must be something wrong with PHP code that I could not see.Here is what WireShark captured:
POST /engine/ HTTP/1.1
Host: abcdef.com
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:2.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0
Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8[code]....
The result is a blank page instead of response from server.
I have a bunch of flvs that I want to play seamlessly. I figured the safest way to ensure a seamless playback was to preload the files first using a class called bulkloader. Once they have all loaded I start using the flvplayback component with .load() on mulitple vp depths.
My reasoning was the second time the flv file is requested (through the flvplayback.load method) it has already been cached in the browser cached from the previous call so it will be pretty much instant. When I test this with Charles proxy (throttled but with caching allowed it makes two calls for each flv and both are requested from the server ignoring any caching.
I wonder if there is a special case where flv's don't get cached. The bulkloader class uses a netstream object to download the video and I wonder if that has different behaviour to a loader object when it comes to caching.
everytime I look for ways of sending back to XML changes produced in Flash, the tutorial always assume that we are using a server. Is there a way for having a Flash projector that everytime it starts 1-checks for data to load to the projector 2- lets us do changes to data (add, change and remove xml data) 3- and in the end we can save the changes made to the XML file that was initially loaded?

I know that Silverlight 4 support put request using its client http stack.
I have a simple sendAndLoad XML request that works perfectly on 95% of the computers I have used. I have check crosssite stuff and everything i can think of. Its not browser specific ,os specific, or flash version specific. On these computers I can run the same flash file on a standalone player and everything works flawlessly but inside of any browser it makes the request for the XML file and stops right there. After a while like 10 minutes flash gets tired of waiting and returns not found. I can navigate to the xml file via the same browser. Upgrading Flash doesn't help.The only thing consistent is it only happens to windows computers. The requested URL is the complete URL. I have changed this and still the same.IE or Firefox still the same. Version 9 player in both. I have montiored network traffic and see the request made and maybe a response but flash has moved.
View 1 RepliesI am working in Flash CS4. I have successfully run a .wmv file through the Media Encoder, converted it to a f4v file, imported it into Flash, and published it with a skin to a folder on my hard drive.I am learning this on my own (no one else in my state agency knows Flash - we are just getting started with posting videos on the Internet, and this is the test case).I get the following four files in one folder on my hard drive (I have put in parentheses what I think the files do, please correct if I am wrong):
oil.f4v (the movie file)
Test.html (the html page in which the swf file is embedded to play back the movie)
Test.swf (the swf file that is embedded in the html page)
SkinUnderPlayStopSeekMuteVol.swf (the skin file that is linked to from the Test.swf file??)
My question is: As long as these four files stay in the original folder, the html page plays the movie perfectly. As soon as I rename the folder, nothing works. It appears to be a question of re-establishing a relative/absolute link among the files? I want to post these to my live site in order to test, but of course that won't work yet either.
I am wanting to allow a user to select an image from their computer to use as a BG. FileReference does this job well, however it does not provide the absolute path to the selected file.
I want the selected BG to stay in their "save" (local SharedObject cookie) so that it can be loaded the next time they come back. But since FileReference only provides me with the filename, I'm not sure how to go about storing this information for later. I could, I suppose, store the image data into the cookie directly, but that would be terribly inefficient since many BG images are rather large for a cookie.
how I can go about finding the image file path that the user selected, or efficiently saving the image they chose?
I am trying to do an app that requires me to change the behavior of a few native methods and classes of a an application.I want to override methods such as:ExternalInterface.call, ExternalInterface.addCallback, flash.net.navigateToURL in a loaded movie.There are a few ways to do this for example:1. Getting the SWF's bytecode and decompile it. Then change the symbols table with my own class.2. Loading the other movie in my applicationDomain, by doing so, I would be able to rewrite it's own classes.o do (2) what I did was:1. Turn off the "-strict" flag.2. Turn on the "-es" flag.in the compiler and then do something like:
Code:
flash.net.navigateToURL = function(u:URLRequest,window:String):void {
throw new Error("yay it works");

I have a Windows Server 2003, with a domain: "mydomain.com" and everything goes right until the Flash application tries to load de crossdomain.xml, because it tries to load it from "servername" and obviously the request fails. Currently I have read all about crossdomain.xml , what it is, where it goes although I can not find what I have to do so my flash application requests the crossdomain.xml from my domain "mydomain.com" and not from my server "servername".
- The domain is up and can be accessed from the internet
- The crossdomain is on the root folder and also can be accessed from the internet
