I am a web designer and I do like to hand code using jquery however, I think it would be much faster to use gui applications like flash to create animations especially on the fly as well as support for writing and editing source code.

I have this javascript file which is a modified version of the VideoLightBox script:
jQuery(function(){
var $=jQuery;
var swfID = "video_overlay";[code]....
The script opens a flash swf file in a "popup" lightbox fashion and plays it either from youtube or via a player locally.I was however wondering if it was possible to create a secondary swf to float on top of the player (noting that this of course would have the wmode:"transparent") and hereby create an opening curtain effect revealing the first swf and the player. I've been trying for quite some time now to load the top clip via createSWF and to create an additional div to contain it and float it using absolute position however I can't seem to get it right.. I know that the div float perfectly on top of each other when using:
<head>
<style type="text/css" media="screen">

How can I display alternate HTML with the jquery.swfobject plugin for browsers without Flash? I'm unable to find any documentation or examples showing how to do this.

I'm using the HTML5 JW Player. It sizes the HTML5 video correctly, but shrinks the Flash fallback player; here's an example page: Test Page
If you view that page in IE, you'll notice that on panel 5, the video is smaller than the space it's supposed to occupy. On Firefox, it works fine because it's using the OGG video in its HTML5 video player.Is there a way to resize the Flash video via JavaScript/jQuery to fit the same space as the HTML5 video?
Is there any way to play, stop or gotoAndPlay(anyframe) from JQuery?
View 2 RepliesI've looked high and low for an answer to this and I'm hoping someone has an answer, or at least a tip on how to avoid it.I'm loading a static HTML file into a container via the jQuery load() method. This static HTML file has a script which loads a swf. When I load that particular file, I get the white screen of death (WSOD) and the page explodes and everyone in the room dies a horrible death.I've had this happen also when using the jQuery wrap methods (wrap, wrapOuter, etc.) when a swf is present.It seems manipulating the DOM with a container that has a swf object causes this. Does anyone have a solution or a way that I can prevent it happening?
View 1 RepliesI'm setting up a page that uses a flash menu to load html pages into a div container by the following call:
on (release){
getURL("javascript:getPage('test.html')");
}
The loading works fine, but some of my pages had specific jquery scripts and that's where I've struck out so far. I assumed all I needed to do was transfer the script importations, css stylesheets and the jquery functions to my main document, but it won't work.
I also tried importing the html as a the complete html, which works on it's own, but not when imported into the main document. Most recently I heard I should try shifting the jquery function calls to the end of the loaded document, to after the content, My scripts work, just not when imported, so I suppose my question is how can I make the main- and imported documents play nice with each other? What say you we make this a jump-start tutorial for all us noobs to reference?
I have written a modal using jquery UI and it appears at the front of a flash movie thus the html inside the modal becomes corrupt, I tried to hide the movie right before modal gets triggered and reappears after closing the modal, works well but each .hide() and .show() the flash movie gets resetted while all I want is to hide (without removing the movie) and displaying it once it is triggered to .show that modal div.
View 3 RepliesIm trying to use JS to send data to my Flash AS2.0 music player with ExternalInterface, except there are no good tutorials or guides on ExternalInterface that I can find. I want to be able to change the current song in the player by clicking a JavaScript link, and on page / window load without clicking, play a default song.
I dont need a super complicated answer on loading sounds in flash, etc., I am just having a lot of difficulties getting JS to send anything to Flash, and when I get that to work - would I need to put some if / else into the flash to determine if the link has been clicked or not?

I use jquery.flash() plugin to embed flash into my website. The problem is that in IE6 this doesn't work. I tried swfobject (1.5), also, but it gives me (sometimes) some strange errors with n null or something like that, so I decided to use jquery.flash() also. (I use both swfobject and jquery.flash() now)
So, basically, swfobject works but gives me that strange error sometimes (all browsers), so NOT all my flash banners work, and jquery.flash() WORKS in all other browsers, except IE6.

View 2 RepliesI 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?
View 3 Repliesi have a project where i have a movie.swf (AS2) and some buttons with js/jQuery in the html part. Now i want the buttons to control the flash. For Example pressing Button1 would do a gotoAndPlay(1) and Button2 gotoAndPlay(150) Button3 gotoAndStop(450)
The Flashmovie works with Actionscript 2.
I'm considering attempting a redesign of a flash website with jquery effects and transitions in place. I just wanted to reach out to the community to maybe see how feasible this really is considering the particular transitions and effects this website hasThe gallery I guess can be recreated by carousel plugin, but there are so many out there so maybe could suggest a stable one that would be be best suited to this job. The other items that really caught my attention in which I wouldn't really know where to start is the navbar and the effect that looks like a book opening when you click on a link on the navbar.
View 3 RepliesI have a flash object that connects to the user's webcam.In Firefox, I can remove the container div of the object (using jQuery) and the camera will turn off.However, in IE8, when I remove the container div, the camera stays on but the flash object appears to be removed from the DOM.Is there a way to sever the connection between IE and the webcam so the light on the webcam will go off when the flash object is removed from the DOM?

I have a project with that uses flash for most pages. Now the client want to replace the flash with jquery/html. So from where I have to start with?

I have a page that uses the jQuery.swfobject plugin to embed 5 flash items into a page and each flash item has a callback using externalInterface. The callbacks work when I have the js function outside of $(document).ready(function() but the jQuery animations do not fire - the ajax load however does. Does anyone know how to get the animations working too, code below:
function pageLoader(galID) {
$('#menu').hide();
$('#holder_gallery').load("feeds.php", {gallery: galID}, function(){

I would like to update the flashvars value argument to view another video:
<param name='flashvars' value='movieId=1002' />
I found out that I can make it work in Firefox by updating the parameter with the extra step of readding the whole flash contents.
$("param[name=flashvars]").attr("value", "movieId=33");
$("embed").attr("flashvars", "movieId=33");
$(".root").append($("#video"));
But this does not work in IE8 as the browser won't refresh the flash contents. Any ideas on how to reload the flash contents without external dependencies like swfobject.js?
Do you know how to build something similar to [URL] I can see this is done in Flash, but I do not know how its done. Also if there are anyt tools that can do something similar in JavaScript that would be nice to know

Is there a way I can have JavaScript/jQuery know when a Flash object has been clicked (and still have Flash process the click)?
I tried putting a table on top of the object with position: fixed and a z-index and the object set to param name='wmode' value='transparent' so I could have my JavaScript detect which column was clicked using jQuery's click(), but the clicks were never intercepted by JavaScript (Chromium Linux).
Is it possible to make scrolling clouds with Flash, jQuery or JavaScript? If yes, could you please give me code, that I would need to insert in homepage?
I got 3 small cloud images, and I need to make them move on the background, they should be under content, but over body, for example I got content (margin: 0 auto; (in middle) where text is located e.c.), and body image (sky and grass on the ground), the clouds should fly horizontally, is that possible to make?
I want to have my overlay adjust in size depending on how much content is being shown in the flash movie. Also, I want it to resize in real time when the user adjusts the content.
View 2 RepliesI've a simple flash application that does counting on button click. I load it in a page and a javaScript code does some DOM manipulation to move it from one div tag to another. Problem: the state of the count is not preserved as the swf node is moved from one node to another. What I did:
I simply get the node using javascript getElementbyId function and then once I get the source and destination div nodes then I use destinationNode.appendChild(sourceNode); //javascript This works well in Internet explorer, but it doesn't work in Chrome and Firefox. So then I tried prototype library.
