I'm loading website by using htmlLoader.loadString(someHtml). There are included JS sources.Is there any chance to get access to functions which are inside this JS file?
I also set property placeLoadStringContentInApplicationSandbox to true.
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.
As above is there a way to access any function written inside main timeline from a class?
View 1 RepliesI've got clips being attached using attachMovie (clips are in the library with linkage id's).
inside those clips are two functions. I'm trying to access those functions after I attach the clips, but not getting anywhere.
I assume that the methods of my attached clip (the functions) aren't available immediately, but rather after the clip actually 'loads' to the stage they are.
Got a public funtion within lights.as file called turnLightsOn.
Now I need to access this from the time line actions - I need to place it within an oncompletion function.[code]...
HOW do I paste an example of my code on this forum? It would be best for folks to see all the code?

I have a swf file sample.swf which has its actionscript class in Main.as. This Main.as has various objects declared as public in it. For instance lets consider an object myData of class MyData (in MyData.as).
I am loading this swf file in my AIR app using swfLoader. I want to know how do I access myData.func() using swfLoader.loaderInfo.content.
I have the need to change a variable in a child Flash file.
The setup is a parent Flash file, that has called a child Flash, and placed it in a movieClip.
I can send a variable using Javascript to the parent Flash file, but not directly to the child Flash file. Is there a way that I can access the child Flash file directly with Javascript?
Or do I need to send the variable to the parent Flash file, and then have the parent send the variable to the child Flash file? Is there a sort of dot notation that I can use with Javascript to get to the child Flash file without first accessing the parent, when the child is added to the parent using the loadClip function in flash?
Is there a way to call a function inside a loaded SWF file?
Basically, I have a .swf file (A) that loads another .swf file (B)...I would just like to treat B as if it was any other instance added to my class .swf "A"...
Have to recast "Loader" with the name of your .swf file class:
Loaded .swf class:
package src {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class LoadedSWF extends MovieClip {

I have searched for this everywhere but it seems like every answer is either overcomplicated or simply does not work, and I know for sure there should be a more simple way of achieving what I need. So, until today, I have always coded from within the timeline. But now I realise why I should code in separate class files. However, I still want to include snippets of code in the timeline for simplicity's sake.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to find a way to have global functions in my as project, similar to how flash does with stuff like the util functions (describeType()...), where you can just call the function wherever you need it. For example:
[Code]...
So when I call Test(), it prints out "hello world" fine. My problem comes in that I can't change the name of the Test function, and I can't add any other functions without compiler errors. Is it possible to have a load of global functions in one file, or do I have to split them up into separate files like in the example? Also, I know that I can make a Global class and call static functions like Code: Global.doSomething() but I'd like to know if there's a way to do it as flash does it (describeType(), getDefinitionByName(), etc), or rather, how does flash do it?
I am working with an older (CS3) file in CS4. I have some simple javascript on an actions frame on the site. Example:
Code:
commercial_btn.onRelease = function() {
getURL("JavaScript:openWin('commerical.html', '600', '620')");
}
For some reason this code is being disabled when I publish. When I click on it in preview, it brings up a browser window. But when I publish it, on my computer that is not connected to the internet, it says something like "Adobe flash player has stopped..." and when I test it on the computer which is connected to the internet, it doesn't do anything at all. Only one Javascript pop up works - it has slightly different code and is in a different place. I tried applying the code to these other buttons but no luck.
I am trying to register a javascript-function from Flash, using the navigateToURL function like this:
navigateToURL(new URLRequest('javascript:function init(){ ...doSomething()... }', '_self' ));
to have the function init() available via ExternalInterface --> ExternalInterface.call("init", This works fine in Firefox, but Internet Explorer fails to register the function.
I am using ExtrernalInterface.call(javascript_function, args); to call javascript functions from Flex. But this fails in case of browsers that have javascript disabled. Is there any other way to call javascript functions from flex?

anyone know where i may be going wrong?
I use the following jQuery code to access functions in my SWF (FP 10.1 SWF embedded via SWFObject): $('#FlashApp')[0].someFunc(); This works fine in every browser.. except for Internet Explorer (surprise!). Surely, the point of jQuery is to make this code work across all browsers? I'd really rather not write extra code to check for IE. How can I talk to my SWF in a browser independent way?

I'm working on a Flash game that needs to call some Javascript on the page and get data back from it. Calling Javascript from Flash works. Calling the Flash functions from Javascript (often) doesn't. I'm using the Gaia framework.The swf is loaded in with SWFObjectThere's a button in the Flash file. On click, it uses ExternalInterface.call() to call a Javascript function. This works.The Javascript function calls a Flash function that was exposed with ExternalInterface.addCallback().Sometimes, the Javascript produces the following error: TypeError: myFlash.testCallback is not a function.
When the error happens, it affects all functions registered with addCallback(). Gaia and some of its included libraries use addCallback(), and calling those functions from Javascript also produces the TypeError.Waiting a long time before pressing the button in Flash doesn't solve the error.Having Flash re-try addCallback() periodically doesn't solve the errorWhen the error occurs, ExternalInterface.available = true and ExternalInterface.objectID contains the correct name for the Flash embed object.When the error occurs, document.getElementById('myflashcontent') correctly returns the Flash embed object.Edited to add:This issue shows up in Firefox 3.6, but not Chrome or IE8. I haven't tried older browsers.
I'm running the Debug version of the Flash player.My calls toExternalInterface.addCallback() are wrapped in a try...catch block. When the JS error occurs, the catch block is not triggered. It's a silent failure.The error occurs when testing on a webhost, with the swf loaded from the same server as the page it's on.
I set allowScriptAccess = always.Setting flash.system.Security.allowDomain("mydomain") doesn't fix the error.From my Page class:
public class MyPage extends AbstractPage
{
// declarations of stage instances and class variables

Does anyone know how to call upon Javascript functions from Flash using FS comand, here's an example of it in action though I'm not looking to do anything quite as elaborate, I simply want to instruct the browser window that's holding the flash file to close at a predetermined point on the timeline.

My needs are to execute a javascript whitout calling any external function of the html file when a flash button is clicked. I need to obtain the effect that happen when the user put in his address bar the text javascript:"alert("Hello World!"); and press enter I need to do this whitout calling any external functions, whitout calling anything in the html file, all just with the swf. Of course the script that i must call is another than javascript:"alert("Hello World!"); but let's begin with this easy script and when working i can thikn to implement the complex one
i tried this
ActionScript Code:
on(release)
{
function runJS(script:String):Void {
[Code]...
but is not working, i get a syntax error, maybe cuse of the " in "Hello World!"
I want to ask if what i need to do is possible and, if yes, why my AS code is not working.
