I have a project in Flash Builder and I use Bulkloader to load some configuration files. When I run the project from Flash Builder or in a server, everything works as expected, but when I run the SWF from another location (for example "my documents"), the project can't load the XML.
View 2 RepliesI'm building a flash website which uses a google map for a contact section and another one generated via external class for a projects section (for each one of the projects available there will be generated a map and a marker).This website uses SWFAddress and each of the projects receive SWFAddress dynamicaly via xml, pulling in the name of the project.The problem is when I test the website localy, on Flash IDE both the maps are loaded fine, but once I try it online on a webserver just the map on contact section is being loaded.I've tried to use a different key for each other -the contact section map key based on an url.Does anyone know what the problem might be? Is it because I'm using 2 maps on the same website? Is it because the url generated by SWFAddress is too long (I tried to generate a key based on something like URL...
View 0 RepliesI started a discussion about my parameter catching problem and I've now narrowed it now. It turned out it wasn't the parameters not getting catched. The swf took the parameters fine, so that's apparently not the issue. My problem is that it seems like the .xml-file don't get loaded. When I've got my .xml file and .swf locally on my computer and runs it it works fine. When I place it on my web server the same way, it works fine. However, when someone else puts my .swf in embedded on their website the xml won't be loaded by the swf for some reason. Below is the AS3 code loading the xml file. It's been working fine all along until I started playing around with calling the swf from different sources (my friend's web server by embedding it etc.).

Is it possible that, when I publish my flash program to the internet that the user can save and load text to a text file somewhere on his computer?
View 2 RepliesI'm using BulkLoader to load a single XML, parsing this, extracting out a list of images on another server (amazon), adding them to BulkLoader and loading them in.
this all works great running in the Flash IDE but as soon as it's uploaded the xml loads, parses BulkLoaders starts but non of the images load.
I assume it's a security issue but linking to these images from the local or from a html page works fine just not from Flash from a server.
I got this sweet minisite built in Flash that I'm going to load onto facebook for the fan page. Problem? I can't get the XML to load. I don't know the first thing about ActionScript, so I'm upp'ing a copy of the Source Files.
View 1 RepliesI want a user running a Flash game on his machine (not from a server) to be able to save some game data locally.From what I've read, there still isn't any way to do this, but I thought I'd throw it out there in case anyone knows a sneaky xml or php work around.

We built a demo for a product we may build. The demo is in flash for FP 9 and is one master clip that loads about a dozen other clips. All these clips are intended to load locally in a browser window (just from the file system - not a server). What we noticed is that the two computers we developed this on (with Flash CS5 on them) show this fine in it's finished form (1 .html page / 1 main .swf - 12 child .swfs in a subfolder).
But on all other computers without Flash IDE installed it doesn't work. It loads the page in a browser and then just shows a grey screen with 5 "loading" dots that just repeat in the middle of the screen. I have not seen this before and didn't build the app - before i start digging into the code (was told maybe a problem with the loader trying to load from the file system as opposed from a URL) I wanted to know what could be causing this?
I have one .swf that loads a second one on level 2.level 2 then in turn loads variables from a text file .The problem is that it works locally, but refuses to work on the server. The urls are all local. This is such a simple procedure, I can't figure out what is wrong..... are there limitations doing this via server vs. locally? I never get any "file open" errors locally. I've spent 2 hours on this.... I'm just using a simple LoadVars similar to this example:
Code:
loadText = new LoadVars();
loadText.load("text3.txt");

I have been struggling with this all week now. I am using as3 and within my movie I have a dynamic text box that contains a score.I need this score to be written to a text file preferbly in an array that only stores the highest 5 scores.I then need values from the array to be read and displayed on another movie which will act as a high score table. e.g. I will have a dynamic text box in my high score move that will display the 1st value in the array, and then the 2nd etc.
writing/reading data to text files.Alternatively if anyone else can suggest another method for a high score table please let me know. I only need a basic high score table that runs on a users local machine as the app i am making is desined to run on individual users machines.
I'm working on a project which will be embeded locally, and im in need of a solution to make a pop up swf that loads upon click of a button from another swf.
All the solutions i can find work for uploading to the web...however dont work locally.
So im guessing im looking for something along the lines of "onclick load swf _blank".
I am trying to figure out how to make a flash Application which can allow users to Record Audio from their Microphone. The recording needs to then be uploaded to a web server.I think the best way to do it would be to store the .flv or .mp3 file locally, and then submit the file to the server after the recording is completed.I have read in some places that this is impossible to do, however websites such as livevideo.com allow this too be done with Video as well, so I think Audio should be simple if it can be done with video.
View 1 RepliesThe problem is this: I have an swf embedded in an html. I must call a js function in the page from the swf via ExternalInteface. Ok. But it must work locally, for any user, without doing nothing. That's because this thing must be distributed in cdroms.

Im not sure whether its possible but I have been trying to load an xml from my webserver, and do a few bits with it. I cant get the xml to load locally it works fine on my server so I assume its some kind of security issue.
View 2 RepliesSo I kinda think this is doable with SharedObject. But I'm not really sure. I found an as2 tutorial about posting highscores(www.emanueleferonato.com) and started thinking.

View 8 RepliesI have CS3 movie that opens links to other sites.It works fine when publshed to the web server but when I test it locally (opening it from my own files) the links don't work - is this a security settings issue? I tried opening settings manager and "allowing" files for that file location but it didn't fix it.
View 2 RepliesI am running my swf file through a browser on the local machine (i.e. C Drive). I want to have a link to download the Adobe Reader however when I click on the link that is setup with navigateToURL(), I get a Flash Player Security Error stating that it is unsafe to acess the Internet and to update the player options allowing it to happen. I have went to the player options and put the URL's in there that I am trying to get to with no success.
View 4 RepliesI have started a new fulltime job doing flash work (yay) and on my first two projects I keep running into a weird situation. For some reason the projects I create work just fine when tested on my development machine, but as soon as we try them on another machine in the office they will not work unless, we upload them to a webserver and view them from there.
I am working on and saving my files to a network drive on the server and can run them fine, but whenever anyone else with the same version of flashplayer and browser tries to run them off the same network drive they don't work? Now, I don't remember the exact error or problem with the first project, but on this second one I'm calling a function in a swf on a web page from javascript using AS3 ExternalInterface. On the other computers the browser reports a javascript error of "Object doesn't support this property or method" when once again, on my machine (and once posted online) works just fine. Also, before you start thinking it's a problem with ExternalInterface and javascript my first project was not using ExternalInterface or javascript calls.
I've got a project that loads a couple of external flv videos. It works great locally but when I upload it to a web server I just get a blank screen.
Googling reveals two possible issues... server mime types, and flv path issues.
Everything is in the same folder so I'm doubting it's a path issue.
If it's the mime type issue, how do I go about fixing it? My host is dreamhost.
*update, I tried adding the following two lines to my .htaccess file but it didn't change anything:
AddType application/andrew-inset ez
AddType video/x-flv flv
Here is the html: [URL]
And here is the whole project in a zip if anyone has time to take a look:

I have a SWF (1.8mb) which I placed onto my HTML page using Dreamweaver, and set to autoplay. When I save the file and open it in Firefox/Safari, the movie plays as expected. But when I uploaded the files to my hosting server, the movie doen't appear (not even a box where it should be - just nothing but blank space where it should be). I've made sure that I uploaded the SWF, the HTML file, the expressInstall.swf, and the swfobject_ modified. js file. I also changed the permissions to allow executable scripts. I don't have a Flash blocker installed.[code]

View 1 RepliesI'm having troubles testing a StageVideo file locally. The HTML file that contains the swf loads perfectly in Chrome & FireFox, but when I go to open it in Internet Explorer 9 nothing happens (it just shows a white screen).
I've added the permissions for the location to the 'Global Security Settings' tab of the Flash settings manager (on the Macromedia website). I've also checked in the IE9 settings to make sure that it allows GPU rendering.
why it might be blocked in IE9?

View 4 RepliesI developed an app that ran fine locally and on the web. However, this morning I noticed that it will not play properly on my PC, but will on the web, or in a Director projector. It is an AS2 slide presentation, that loads xml content. Everything was working fine locally until today. It seems to load the content fine but won't call methods any longer... Again everything works fine on the web or in a projector.
