Javascript :: Get Flex 3 And OpenX To Work Together?
Jun 5, 2010
I'm trying to get Flex 3 and OpenX to work together. Everything works great in Safari and Firefox. But, I get an XML parser error in Internet Explorer, which makes me want to rip my hair out and drink turpentine.
I've tried to simplify the problem as best I can. Basically, I take the adReturn and then turn it into xml.
I'm trying to get Flex and OpenX to work together. OpenX is returning XML. I've got two Flex classes that clean-up the XML and place the ads on my site. Unfortunately, I get Error #1090: XML parser failure, when I test it. And I can't figure out why.The first class is:
package com.darylbowden.ads { import mx.controls.Alert; public class Ad extends Object {
I'm trying to get Flex and OpenX working together. I can get the ads to work when I view the site on a Mac using Firefox or Safari. But, if I use a PC with IE, I get error #1090 which is an XML parser failure.
Apparently, there is malformed XML. How do I check the XML that OpenX produces? What's the best way to find the nasty node?
I've got OpenX working on my Flex site. But, I'm having problems getting OpenX Market working. At the moment, I only get my OpenX dummy ad-- no OpenX Market ads are displayed.So, I set an alert on the img tags and looped through the return. I'm trying to figure out whether the img tags that are referenced are correct.url...
idiot co-worker went on vacation. Apparently he edits the flash banners through OpenX. I've looked around for 3 hours and can't find where to login to OpenX.
I can't change the flash banner, even by replacing them with other images, or the SWF file with images, it's like a nightmare from hell.
There are the OpenX code files on the server in a folder, OpenX, and plenty of explanations on the internet about how to login to the OpenX website, but i need to login into OPENX on my website. the V.P. is going to flay this guy
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.
We'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?
I am trying to create this html elements dynamically on the onload of my page,however;when I run it the code wont work on IE8 but okay in firefox,safari,and others.
function getmovie() { var container = document.getElementById("container"); if (!container)
It works perfectly when pulled within labels like in the demo.[code]note: (id="slidesbigtext") loads text from javascript without any issues, just can't find a way to make sIFR work in this situation..
Am I using the code improperly or is there a flaw in SWFObject? If you go to the URL below you can see that it the flash file (an MP3 player) shows up perfectly fine in Chrome. However, in both Firefox and IE8 it loads a blank white box. If you mouse over the box the pointer changes to a hand as if its registering the buttons, just not actually displaying them. Link: [URL] (MP3 player should be displaying in the right-hand empty column)
I want to ask that how could we embed a flash banner so that it should work with IOS as well. Currently I'm using this code, but want to change it so that it should work with IOS as well.
I have the most weirdest problem with Flash Player and FlashDevelop (to be honest, dont know which one causes it), so let me explain. I have recently downloaded FlashDevelop and created an AS3 Project. When I compile the project, the files are generated in the bin folder. Now, when I navigate to the bin folder and open the index.html in Firefox and IE9, everything works fine. However, when I copy the bin folder somewhere else and then try to do the same, i can see the flash movie in Firefox but not IE9.
I've got a demo page up here; you can view source to see what I'm trying to do. As you can see, everything about it seems to be working except for colors. I'm trying to set the color to blue (#0000ff), but it stays as black. I created a custom SWF file for my font, embedding four different variations of a single font in order to accommodate for different styles per these instructions (because this particular font family stores regular, bold, italic, and bold italic as four disjoint font names).
For posterity I'll paste some of the source code from that demo page I linked to here:
I'm trying to call a method inside a flash movie from js, every time the mouse leaves the "div". It works on Internet Explorer, but not in firefox. Here is the html script:
Here is example of the problem, there is an alert for the js and the flash should be able to remove the swf (see a gray background? it works! see a image, flash didn't receive the call): [URL]. This should work with internet explorer / safari / chrome (pc/mac) only firefox seams to reject this.
I have this which is based off of this question: [URL]. However this neither works in firefox and IE. If I embed my flash into the browser like this: <embed src="helpdeskApp_three.swf" id="flash" quality="high" scale="exactfit" width="800" height="500" name="movie" align="middle" allowscriptaccess="always" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="[URL]"/>
This works in Firefox but not IE. What is the proper way of embedding my flash movie so it works across all browsers?
I have a SWF file emedded withing a HTML page. Trying to do a simple operation - go to and play certain frame in SWF using javascript. I'm using ExternalInterface to do this but for the life of me can't get the two to communicate. I add all the code but when clicking on the link which calls javascript, it says my flash object is undefined?
Whenever I use ExternalInterface to call a Javascript function in Firefox, the Javascript successfully returns a value to Flash. However, in IE, I always get 'null' for the return.
I know Flash is successfully calling the JS because i have an alert in the JS function that is firing. It's just the return that is null.
Following the official Shadowbox usage instructions, I appended just a few lines of CSS/JS:
[Code]....
And yet, when I click on my thumbnail, it does not generate a Shadowbox overlay. Instead, my browser follows an ordinary link to the animation. I've also tried Lightbox, Greybox, and Lightbox2, working at this problem for about twelve hours. My understanding of Javascript objects and classes is very limited. Web Development is not my career path.
I'm working on a project that originally required me to use <area> elements and 40 copies of a single GIF image to have a hoverable and clickable <img> tag. I suggested SVG, and the client agreed to use SVG instead, as it was easier to work with for both of us.
Anyways, my question is, what cross-browser JavaScript SVG library will allow me to display and interact with pre-made SVG images.
I know of these libraries:
Raphaël: I'm currently using this along with a SVG loading plugin. But that plugin does not support Inkscape or Adobe Illustrator SVGs (i.e. most SVGs). cang: This library looks promising, but it requires <canvas> support, which IE doesn't have natively. svgweb: Another more-promising library. It requires Flash, but most IE users have Flash. jQuery SVG: It seems to be able to load SVG images, but development seems to have died. And it requires me to use a modified version of jQuery 1.3.
My client would like to provide somewhat-arbitrary images to my script and have chunks of them be "selectable" (see my demo here).
i want when press a button on that flash header the test.php is redirect to another php page without the flash header be reloaded , and i actually made it but with form buttons and ajax ofcourse , so all i need is when the flash button is clicked a javascript function in the test.php work ?? --> here is my try : i passed a url variable from flash to the same page to say which button is pressed through this code
ActionScript Code: var vars:URLVariables=new URLVariables(); var url:URLRequest=new URLRequest("test.php");
I can't seem to get the javascript open window functon to work with a simple button. I'm using flash 8. I'm creating a simple CD with exe which loads a swf movieclip. With in this movie clip is a button to open a popup window. Every javascript I have tried to use isn't working. The exe, swf and html page all reside in the same directory. There the latest:
I'm using Agile Uploader in my project to resize image before upload on client side.And it works fine except one thing: if image name contains cyrillic letters it fails with server error 500.
How to avoid this or if needed how to rename file with english letters "on fly" (possibly with javascript).
How swffit (http://swffit.millermedeiros.com/) can be used? I mean in my project I have dynamically expanding flash application, so once the expanding part riches the bottom I see standard flash scroll bar. Not browser scrollbar...
Here is how I defined my application:
public function addPanel(evt:Event):void { var panel:Panel = new Panel(); panel.name = "new"; panel.title = "new"; panel.height = 30; panel.width = 100; this.addChild(panel); SWFFit.fit('my_flash', 800, 600); }
public function main(event:Event):void{ SWFFit.fit('my_flash', 800, 600);
<div> <a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer"><img src="http://www.adobe.com/images/shared/download_buttons/get_flash_player.gif" alt="Get Adobe Flash player" title="Get Adobe Flash player" /></a><br /> You need <a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer">Flash Player 8</a> and allow javascript to see the content of this site.. </div> <!--[if !IE]>--> </object> <!--<![endif]--> </object>
</body> </html>
Will be happy to hear any feedback,
Added fixes described in answer 1. but come across interesting issue: e.g. browser scroll bar appears only on browser window resize, not when clicking add button...
I have a remoteobject within my main.mxml.I can call a function on the service from an init() function on my main.mxml, and my java debugger triggers a breakpoint.When I move the remoteobject declaration and function call into a custom component (that is declared within main.mxml), the remote function on java-side no longer gets called, no breakpoints triggered, no errors, silence.[code]
