Javascript :: Use Javascript To Call Method Within A Flash (.swf) File?
Dec 19, 2010
I have a flash file that contains a package "game" which has a class "Scores" and a method setValue(). I want to write some lines of Javascript that allow me to call that method. Someone directed me to this tutorial, but I am still a bit confused.
Javascript: alert("start"); var so; so = document.embeds[0];
so.addParam("allowScriptAccess","always"); import flash.external.ExternalInterface;
ExternalInterface.call("setValue[2600]");
displays an alert to tell me that it has indeed began to execute saves the embedded flash file into a variable and sets access imports that class calls the method.I am not sure about how this class thing works? This is just the bits and pieces I was able to come up with from that site, but I don't really understand how it all works (but certainly hope to eventually).This is the site: http:[url]...how-do-i-access-flash-function-using-javascript.When I execute the code with the importation nothing happens, but the alert does come up when I don't have that statement?

I'd like to call a javascript function from an embedded .swf file. Specifically, I'd like to call a function in one of my externally linked javascript files from within: function loadTrack(){
[Code]...
which is in an .as file which I assume somehow becomes the swf file. How would I go about this and 're-compile' the .as file?

I need to execute some javascript string code from flash swf file using actionscript 3.
I read that it could be done by passing the javascript code to the parent html document , using externalinterface.call function. Then I assume it will be faster if I can declare functions in the javascript code in the HTML document in the first use of externalinterface.call funtion ; if flash code calls the javascript code repeatedly. So let me ask you how to do that. For details , any javascript to be loaded is unknown in design time and I can not prepare a javascript file to be loaded.

Is it possible to pass file names from a running Flash application, which only purpose is to enable multiple-file-selection, to a JavaScript application which handles upload of all files to the server?I have examined various Flash upload solutions (like SWFUpload, Uploadify, etc.) and none of them meets my needs. I want an easy to implement solution (like Uploadify) which also lets me specify various parts of the HTTP request.
The reason I need this is because my upload form uses session cookies (for user authentication) and an CSRF token both passed to the server when uploading files.Is it technically possible to pass filenames (+ paths) to a JavaScript application which then handles the upload?

I have a project (adobe AIR 3.1 - NOT flex) that is running on my webserver where nodeJS is installed. I'm looking at the possibility to call NodeJS javascript files from the AIR app. Like the AIR app collects some information and calls socket.io in NodeJS to dispatch the info to html connected clients.

I'm loading from my main page an external js file, with a function.
I have a flash file in the main page invoking the javascript function.
Everything worked very well until when the javascript code was in the main file, but when I moved javascript to an external file the function seems not called anymore.
So... there is no way to move the javascript code to an external file ? Or any other solution ?

I have a function defined in JavaScript like so:
function fadeBack() {
alert("fadeBack called");
};
I call that function from my Flash file like so:
import flash.external.*;
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("fadeBack");
This works in both Safari and Chrome, but for some reason Firefox won't ever call the function. Still, I can't figure this out. How can I fix it?

i want to call a javascript function from within an embeded swf file in a html page and i'm using the ExternalInterface class. i know this function must be defined in a <script> tag in the html page. however, i want to have all my javascript code in an external file, but it doesn't work. my trial file just can't find the function, although i have my external js file linked in the header.

i have some actionscript that makes a
ExternalInterface.call('someFunction');
call.is it possible to reference the html object that made the call to someFunction directly using the ExternalInterface.call call?
Assume that the object that makes the call also has some Callbacks (via ExternalInterface.addCallback) that are accessible via javascript.
Currently:
Actionscript source
ExternalInterface.call("someFunction");
ExternalInterface.addCallback("someCallback",someASfunction);
[code]....

I am trying to call a custom method of an embedded flash like so:
var flash =
navigation_get_flash_movie_object('main');
if (flash) {
flash.continentOut(id); }
Which works great in Chrome ans Safari, but fails utterly in IE7 & IE8. The browsers throws an error that the object doesn't have such a method.
I am using the example from [URL], and now that I've tested it, it also fails at it's testing page as well [URL]

Included is an example to look at for those willing to help. I have just extracted the relevant sections from the original source files. The html files are commented as well for ease of reference.I have a flash/AS3 slideshow that serves as an abstract for a html based site. There is a catch however... I use a custom content scroller and dynamic content loader (javascript & jQuery) for the body of the site.An example of the custom scroller and dynamic conten loader can be seen on the Malihu wbsite with a demo.The Javascript code that loads the new content looks like this:[code]The button (its a list item) in the html fie that would trigger the custom content loading looks like this:[code]"The ".content" class div is the section im swopping around depending on which link the user clicks. In the case above i dynamically load the contents of the ".content" div from the about.html file into the ".content" div in the index.html file (which is my main file).Is there a way to do the same from Flash?

I'm doing a Security Project now. And this project needs to intercept javascript call from Flash and do analysis. I've searched the web for a couple of days but still can't find any solution. Flash can use getURL, externalInterface.call to execute javascript code, and I want to stop the malicious calls from Flash. Thus, I need to intercept these javascript calls.

I have a couple of buttons in my flash application that call two different javascript functions. They work in all browsers except IE9 (I haven't tried earlier IEs). My code to call the function is something like this:
ExternalInterface.call(
"myLovelyFunction",
string1, string2);
[Code]....
In IE9, the function does absolutely nothing, but the console complains with:
SCRIPT438: Object doesn't support property or method 'SetReturnValue'
index.php, line 1 character 1
line 1, character 1 is obviously pointing at nothing in particular.
I can make it work fine by switching on compatability view, although the console error doesn't go away.
Is there anything about IE9 that causes this, and more importantly, how do I fix this?

I want to use fancybox from inside flash. I call a javascript function with
var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("javascript:callPopup()");
navigateToURL(url, "_self");
and
function callPopup(){ alert("works");}
which works fine. now I want to use this function to open my fancybox content.
the flash content is placed with swfobject. under the flashcontent-div I have my link to the fancybox-content:
<div id="micrositepopup">
<a id="popup" href="images/microsite/microsite.jpg">test</a>
</div>
and I call on pageload
$(document).ready(function() {$("a#popup").fancybox();});
when I click on the test-link all works fine. but how could I call the function
function callPopup(){ $("a#popup").fancybox(); } // not working
to open the fabcybox with the linked content?

I'm using Javascript to call a method on a Flash movie embedded in an ASPX page using SWFObject. It works fine in Firefox, but Internet Explorer 7 and 8 (so far) claim the object returned by swfobject.getObjectById() "doesn't support this property or method". I've found similar posts on this site and others, but nothing I've tried has fixed this in IE.
ActionScript 3.0 class:
public class Player extends MovieClip {
public function Player() {
Security.allowDomain("http://localhost");
ExternalInterface.addCallback("test", test);
[Code] .....
Internet Explorer complains about the last line in that function, "Object doesn't support this property or method".

I have a simple flash socket that I use to connect to IRC servers. It has an open, close, and send method made available to JS through ExternalInterface, for opening connections, closing connections, and sending messages respectively. The socket calls IRC.io.receive in JS whenever it gets a message, which is parsed by JS into something useful.Unfortunately, whenever any of the flash methods are called from JS, they return a "__ is not a function" error.Here's the (watered down) AS, where IRC is the document class:
public class IRC extends MovieClip {
public static function open(url:String, port:int) {/* code */}
public static function close(port:int) {/* code */}
public static function send(port:int, message:String) {/* code */}
[code]....
Any call to any of the functions registered with ExternalInterface throws a "function does not exist" exception.

I can't call a javascript function from flash, when the flash object is added within an OOP structure in javascript. In short the code:
In flash:
if (ExternalInterface.available) {
ExternalInterface.call("flashMessages", "ready");
}
[Code]....
Flash gets loaded, but the call to the javascript function isn't received.
