Dec 4, 2010I read it's possible to call any javascript [URL] so why would I need doFscommand ?

View 1 Replieshow to add a variable to a getURL Javascript function. I have; ActionScript Code: getURL("javascript:JavascriptFunctionNAme(ASVariableName?);"); It works fine when I replace ASVariableName with "1" or some other plain text.
View 5 RepliesI'm trying to use getURL to open a new window that will have a specified size.I downloaded Macromedia's own tutorial/sample code for how to do this using javascript and cannot get it to work.
Here's their code:
on (release) {
getURL("javascript:openNewWindow('http://www.macromedia.com','thewin','height=400,width=400 ,toolbar=no,scr ollbars=yes') ");
}
[URL]
Nothing happens when I click their button. I tried changing the target, still nothing. I also tried it in Safari and in Firefox with FF's popup blocker turned off. Nothing.

I'm working on a kind of coverflow layout and I'm using an XML file to house my links and information about those links. in my ActionScript, I'm using getURL to point to the link the user clicks and open the link in a new window using the following script:
getURL(infostruc[current - 1].artLink, "_blank");
I need to have the new window open up to a specific size (1014x714), but I'm not sure how to write the AS for this kind of action since I'm calling the link from an external file.
Is there a way to tell Flash to ignore getURL javascript calls when testing? It's highly annoying to hit control + enter and then have a damn browser window pop-up every single time.I'm woring on a site that has javascript calls to Google Analytics to track nearly every action. This is not by my choice but by the choice of a client. Typically the tracking gets added last but in this case, that was for phase I launch of the site and now I'm onto phase II.I could go through & comment out all the getURL javascript calls until the sites ready but I'm hoping theres another way.
View 3 RepliesI want to use getUrl to display a javascript alert. I've found an example that works perfectly, by using getUrl("javascript:alert('hello world')"); But that example is published for Flash Player 6, and the rest of my movie requires FP8. And if I go to publish settings, and select Flash Player 8 as target, the javascript is no longer executed.
It's not about the getUrl changes in Flash Player 9, I've also tested with Flash Player 8. If you want to try for yourself, the example I'm talking about is from [URL]..
I'm trying to track a #anchor for example [URL] the anchor is being called by Flash AS2. how can i tell GA to track hits on this page? I tried the GETURL method in flash:
[Code]....
which apprently used to work, but since they've made changes this doesn't... during tests firefox navigated to a page with the url javascript:_gaq.push [URL] was strange. Do I need to even use flash to ask GA to track the anchor? Is there a way i can point GA to track all anchors that are part of my page?
How To Run A Shadowbox Gallery From A Flash getUrl function Call..
This Is What I Have In My Flash:
btn1.onRelease = function() {
getURL("javascript:MyGallery([page1,app1]);", "_self");
}
I want to be able to declare my arguments in flash like so
var page1 = {
title: 'Google',
player: 'iframe',
[Code].....
No matter what I do I cannot get this to work.All I want is a button in flash that will close the browser window. It's a popup window so it should be able to be closed.
View 11 RepliesThe following doesn't work (although it gives no explicit error), but why not?nd... Is there really no way around it, strictly using the with statement? Forget using for / foreach.
with (object1, object2) {
attribute = value;
method();
}
Why the code above gives no syntax error, doesn't work but is accepted by with?If it's possible, how could we change multiple objects with same attribute using with?
var object1 = { attribute: 3 };
var object2 = { attribute: 2, method: function() { alert('blah'); } };
var object3 = { method: function() {alert('bleh'); } };

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.
for some reason, whenever I dynamically load a swf on a $(document).ready() by writing to a div, I am unable to make javascript calls to the browser. Specifically, all calls to the browser return "null". This does not occur when embedding the swf normally on the page load, but I would like to prevent loading of the swf until a specified point in time.
What the heck is going on here? Is there something special about dynamically embedding a swf that prevents the swf from talking to the browser? The methods ARE called (I've proven such by showing alerts), but all return values to any function, regardless of type returned, shows as null when it gets to flash.
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?
Here's the challenge: I have a Flash movie which will be embedded in a page using an unknown DOM ID that I want to be able to identify/store for callback in a JS function. My ideal user flow would be: User clicks button in Flash. Flash pauses any animations / video / sounds / etc. Flash calls an injected JS function to display a page-covering overlay experience. When user closes overlay experience, a callback method on the Flash object is called. Flash resumes playback.
The problem is, when AS3 uses the ExternalInterface.call("functionName", args...) method, there doesn't seem to be a DOM event triggered, and thus it is impossible to tell which object called a JS function, so having a "registerMe()" function doesn't seem to work. Basically, the injected JS function has no way to determine which DOM object to call, because the ID of the Flash object is unknown.

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'm trying to write a web application that searches google and then downloads the result sites and parses them.The search has to be done on the client side. Without implementing a server side proxy.Can this be done using javascript/sliverlight/flash?
View 1 Replieslet suppose i have a object named "data" which has a callBack function named "closeItem" which does something. So i have flash file which has a close button. on click of that i am calling this function which closes this item. So issue is? If i pass this "closeItemFunction" as global function this works fine. but if a pass this function as a "data.closeItem" this doesn;t work throwing some falsh error. so i just wanna ask that "does flash only call gobal scoped javascript function" ??
View 2 RepliesWe're currently building a Flex application using the PureMVC framework with a shell.swf which loads/unloads modules dynamically. We're experiencing issues with memory and we're looking to replace the shell.swf with a JavaScript-based loader.Two questions:What would be a good framework to dynamically load the Flex components and allow the modules to communicate between each other?Would dynamically loading/unloading the modules via JavaScript take care of the typical memory problems associated with Flex/Flash applications?
View 1 RepliesWith all the recent hype about JavaScript and HTML5 replacing Flash, I wanted to know - How would it be possible to protect client-side js code? Of course, it is possible to obfuscate it, but that would only make it a little harder. Also, for games which submit high scores to the server, wouldn't it be incredibly easy to modify those scores before they are sent to the server? I know even Flash files can be decompiled, but they can be obfuscated and flash decompilation is not as easy as modifying data in JS - could be done easily using a plugin such as Firebug. I'd like to know everyone's views on this.
View 2 RepliesI need to achieve something like this for my website: Flash Rain Effect
Is that possible to do in Javascript? I want it to be just as smooth as it is in Flash.
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'm searching for free partial panorama viewer. It should be placed in somewhere in the page and it should be customizable (openSource?). So far i found pan0.net but it only supports 360 and i have priority for non 360...
View 2 RepliesI'm wondering if its possible to do what I'm thinking, and if it is possible, does anyone know of a flash object that does what I need? I know a Flash object can provide a javascript API to interact with it, what I dont know is can Flash send an email directly without the need to talk to the webserver to do so? If thats possible would it not be possible to write a flash object that did nothing but provide an API to send emails? Has such a thing been created that is out there for others to use?
I'm looking to create a email form on a web page but the site is static (no server scripting). In my situation server scripting is not possible as there is no server, the site is 100% client side on a CD/DVD/USB Stick.
I have the following class, I want to do what is in the comments.I know I can do it with conditionals.I'd like to know if there is a way of doing that dinamicaly.This code is in AS3, but I know maybe this is related to javascript because AS3 is based on ECMAScript
public class ClientStatus
{
public static const INVITED:int = 0;[code].....

View 1 RepliesI am looking for a flash mp3 player that will work within the Opera-based browser on the Wii. The player needs to be javascript enabled (support methods like play, stop etc.) The mp3 tracklist will be built dynamically using ajax on the same page as the player so it must trigger an event when a track finishes playing (or at least provide functionality of some kind to indicate that it's time to start the next track). Does anyone know of such a player?
