There's a Flash EXE projector There's a XML file in the folder relative to the projector, data/menu.xml Application is launched on a Windows XP box
On one of the XP machines XML fails to load over some awkward reason. In most environments it works fine. The same app runs well on all Macs tested.
I thought this question would answer my question, but I have applied the following fixes:
.as
Security.allowDomain("*");
Security.allowInsecureDomain("*");
html
param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" />
[Code]...
And I am still seeing the ExternalInterface.addCallback method fail locally. It works on a web server, or in the dev folder. But not in an arbitrary local folder.
When I run the flash player (from flashdevelop) the images are loaded and everything is fine.But when I run the swf from a browser the requests are sent (using chrome's tools for programers - network tab) but nothing is loaded. The size/content column shows 0/actual size of the file
View 1 RepliesI'm making a Flash projector which will be distributed on CD. I want to allow people to copy files off of the CD. Is this possible? Should I be using FileReference?
View 1 RepliesI need some help? Anyone experience this problem before with IE8 FLASH bug? Can not get this to work on all subsequent refresh to the flash. I have a flash piece which simply renders only on the first initial load. After that, if i refresh or visit the page, it does not load correctly. It seems I am having this problem with the swf only on subsequent loading of the page or whenever a refresh happens.
View 1 RepliesI have created a simple flash movie which I use to stream MP3 files into HTML documents using the JavaScript Flash integration Kit. When an audio file has finished streaming it fires the onSoundComplete function; using the integration Kit as a proxy allows me to fire JavaScript events within the HTML document. The event fires correctly when I am streaming from the Internet, however, it fails to fire when the movie and the files are on the same, local, machine.The problem lies, I think, in the following lines of code:

View 1 RepliesI'm working on this project, where i have an .exe-projector reading from an XML-file. But the thing is, one have to open the XML-file manually to change the info in it. can this be done from a projector, when the XML-file isn't stored on a webserver?
View 0 RepliesI am exporting an SWC via Flash Professional CS5 version 11.0.0.485 with the latest Flex Component Kit (2.0.0) installed in the Extension Manager. In Symbol properties, I'm Exporting for Actionscript in Frame 1 with the Class name equal to the Symbol name.
I've imported the SWC into Flash Builder 4.6 with all the different available SDKs.
With all of them I get an error in Design Mode
"SWC File Failed to load. Any component dependent on this SWC will not be displayed in the design mode."
If I instantiate the component via the Source it runs ok and in the browser I see the component.
I know I could just say "whatever, I don't need Design mode" but I'd like to know what is happening.
Any ideas?
I have this Simple Flash banner, that loads text, colors, and entire banner hyperlink from external .txt file into flash.For importing text into dynamic text fields with �vars� set i use
loadVariables("http://www.mysite.com/DIR/data.txt","");
For importing hyperlink onto flash button i use two layers:On blank layer i use:
loadVariables("http://www.mysite.com/DIR/data.txt","");
On button itself i use:
on (release) {
getURL(link1, "_blank");
}
Button has instance set also.Everything works fine and nicely.I use this HTML script to use banner in any website i like:
<object classid="clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://active.macromedia.com/flash4/cabs/swflash.cab#version=4,0,0,0"
id="name" width="468" height="60">
[code]....
Ok So everything works nicely. I load flash i load text, and i also load hyperlink. So after a happy job i went to sleep and other morning i tried to enter website with HTML code, that shows flash and i noticed:
1. Some times flash loads animation, but doesn't load my data.txt and places where dynamic text should be are blank, also hyperlink doesnt work, because it also seems to fail to load.
2. So i press "Refresh" on explorer and data loads perfectly.
3. So i keep pressing refresh some times try to turn of explorer and i noriced that some times it fails to load data and only non dynamic flash animation is played, and some times it loads it nicely.
I have created an SWF that loads an XML file from [URL], but I get this error when running the movie using Test Movie in the Flash IDE.
Error #2044: Unhandled ioError:. text=Error #2032: Stream Error. URL: http://localhost/flash/Projects/MEL/Quiz/Quiz/bin/xml/quiz.xml
at Main/loadConfig()[D:wwwwebrootflashProjectsMELQuizQuizsrcMain.as:126]
at Main/configLoadError()[D:wwwwebrootflashProjectsMELQuizQuizsrcMain.as:143]
[Code].....
Trouble is running the SWF in a browser locally does work, it only throws these errors in the Flash IDE.
I have tried a adding wildcard crossdomain.xml file in my root web directory and setting the SWF publish properties for local playback security to Allow network only, but neither of these have solved my problem.
I know Windows 7 handles localhost name resolution differently compared to previous versions of Windows but I have even added 127.0.0.1 localhost to my hosts file to no avail.
How Can I have a Flash AS3 Projector load protected images/mp3s/videos from a password protected server? I have a bunch of content in a password protected directory that I do not want people to access unless it is in my flash Projector.
View 1 RepliesI have a Flash projector (.exe) file which load some images from local hard drive and move them. This application is called by a VB app at the startup (so it runs when you turn on the system). Everything works fine but there is a terrible issue. Randomly it DOES NOT load all images. I try to figure it out with disabling "Hardware acceleration" in flash [URL] and also disable "fullscreen", but it happen randomly again!!

View 1 RepliesI am using System.security.allowDomain in both files.The tween in movie2 fails to work when the swf loads from an external domain. However, it works perfectly when this swf is loaded locally.

View 2 RepliesI am trying to use the localhost server on my macbook for website development (instead of doing testing by ftp). I downloaded the files from my webserver to the Site folder on my macbook. The Apache is running. My site is flash and make use of the SWFAddress class. The AC_RunActiveContent.js file is in the same folder as the index.html file. When I try to open the page [URL] in firefox, the title and favicon loaded properly, but the embedded flash could not be displayed. However, the same set of files works alright on the remote web server.
I thought it might be problem with the directory and I have tried ./swf/home.swf, swf/home.swf, /swf/home.swf in the index.html file but none work. I already tried changing all the swf/home or ../swf/home.swf or whatever to swf/home.swf but still the flash does not load. I am posting this index.html coz despite all the discrepancies, it works on the remote server.
Would this be problem relating to the SWFAddress class?

View 5 RepliesI have two .swf file : 1- Index.swf and 2-page1.swf. Index file has one frame with the following action :
var loader_mc:Loader =new Loader();
addChild( loader_mc );// Add the loader to the display list loader_mc.load( "d:\page1.swf"));// Load the file
I upload Index file in my site and it can't load page1.swf.
I thought that you could load a file into flash using FileReference. But as far as I understand you have to upload the file to a server and then download it from the server into your flash app to access it?It seems a bit like going passed the river for water (bad translation of swedish expression).
View 2 RepliesI''m currently working on a school project, but I'm having issues with getting the flash loaded with loadMovie. I've read on several forums how to use the command, If I use the command, it loads the flash file. But all variables are undefined and the movieclip in which I loaded the swf file also remains empty.
I've tested the situation with a random jpg and this works.
I'm getting kinda desperate, since I've first tried to use scenes without succes..
I am using an external preloader to load up my main SWF from the same directory that the preloader is loading from. This is my custom class that I used based off of the adobe docs example for using Loader objects.I implemented a maxRetries variable as you can see, but how on earth do I make use of it and where do I perform the retries?Do I detect the Http status code and perform a retry based on whether it was a 200 or 0, or do a I do it in the IOError or what?
Code:

import flash.events.*;[code]....
I have a site that loads XML content data into a movieclip right away. When the user clicks a button, that movieclip is removed and replaced with another. When the user clicks a back button, the XML is loaded into the movieclip once again. The trouble I'm having is when I upload the files to server, the XML will not load a second time either by refreshing the browser, navigating away from the page and going back or going back from within the flash file itself.

I'm currently trying to make a fun little SWF that lets the user input the URL of an image online, then play around with that image via filters, painting, etc, and save their finished work to disk. However, I'm running into some issues once I upload the SWF online. My SWF works without any problems at all from the Flash sandbox, but once online there seems to be a problem.To overcome the issue of not being allowed to smooth an image loaded from an external source, I am using a URLLoader with dataFormat set to BINARY to load the image. Then I have a regular Loader loadBytes from the loaded data of the URLLoader. This allows me to apply smoothing and chang ethe bitmapData of the loaded image.
This works for a select amount of images online. The problem here is that for most images, the URLLoader never finishes loading, nor does it produce an error. It doesn't even produce a ProgressEvent. The .load method of the URLLoader executes with error.
Swf loads fine in all browsers. In any browser but IE 6+, navigating away then back using history/the back button causes the page and swf to reload fine.
With ie however, the swf fails to (re)load without throwing an error.
I'm using SWFObject 2.3 for the embed.
I got a very nice article to load files from local disk to flash movie directly.

Below is the script I'm using to pass a parameter to a script in the same server (and folder) as the flash file. It gives "null" as the required variable (use_url) value, instead of what the script is giving. The script itself works, when tested in a browser.
What it should do - it receives a value for "lesson_id" variable, passes it on to a script "movie_url" and receives a response with a new variable "real_url" and it's value.[code]...
I've been fooling with this problem since AS2.0 (and shared Objects) and I'm not much closer to solving it, partly because every article I read on it is focused on php and server-side stuff that doesn't apply. How to load a String Array from a txt file in local user space (the folder from which the .swf is run). What I need to know: The easiest way for the user to save/load a file. The file has to contain Objects and Arrays reflecting his current status in the game. The goal is to avoid non-Flash apps and languages, and external Classes if possible (I do everything right in the main fla). I don't mind that the user has to initiate and approve the upload/download.

I'm trying to load a local xml file:
xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest("../xml/xmlData.xml"));
But I'm getting this security sandbox violation:
#2148: Only local-with-filesystem and trusted local SWF files may access local resources.
I don't get this error when I embed the XML file directly with the EMBED metadata tag.
