hello: good evening
I leave my problem here:
I am make a measurer of internet speed that consists one preloader (swf1.swf in www.dominio1.com) who loads a swf (swf2.swf in www.dominio2.com)

The file swf2.swf visualizes perfect in swf1.swf without problems although on swf1.swf it does not take the variables from swf2.swf to show the rate of transference, total remaining time, kb loaded and kb total.
If I use crossdomain.xml on the mother directory of the site, or both sites, the problem it persists.

I need that they indicate to me like making solve this disadvantage

if somebody knows where I can obtain a gratuitous measurer of speed, please, to indicate it:-o
Thanks you very much for all

Http://www.domain = OK Http://domain = ERROR?
I have a page that if the URL path in the browser is http://www.domain the page works fine but if the path is http://domain I get that message informaing me that a script is causing it to run slowly and to disable running the script. I really don't understand how to troubleshoot this as it is the exact same page either way. I dont really understand why that can cause flash to malfunction?

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Get Domain Name
hi all

is there a way of flash getting the domain that its located on.

e.g.

http://www.blabla.com/site.html (which has my swf embeded)

from this my swf can get the variable 'blabla.com'

somthing like the PHP: $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"]

I hope this makes sence.

XML, Allow Domain.
Hi people,

Got a fast question. I'm a bit lazy to read up on this subject and don't really have the time either so I came here for a fast answer. I'm loading an .xml file into a .swf ( it's not in the same folder with the .swf ) and inside that .xml file I have a path to an image, that is in the same folder with the .xml file.

From what I know ( if I'm right ) then the .swf file gives access automatically to everything that is in the same root with it ( same directory ) but how do I allowAccesss to that image that is in another folder ?

Thanks in advance.

[CS3,AS2] SWF<?domain>PHP
1) I have an swf thats loaded in web1.html. Now i want to send a set of variables to a php file.

BUT, i can not store a php file in the server where i have stored web1.html and the swf.

So, I create another account where I am able to store my php file. So this php wil be in some other domain.

My question is :

How can i pass a set of variables from swf file in web1.html to the php that is in this new domain?
1) Can i pass variable directly from the swf of web1.html to that PHP file?
2) Can i pass variable from swf of web1.html to an swf that is in the new domain ?

Getting Domain Name?
I'm wondering how I can get the domain name for a Flash file? Is there a way to get automatically get the domain name from a web server or the local HD and store it in a variable?

Thanks!

Get Domain?
Hi

I wonder is is possible to get page url or domain.
U have file:
www.exampledomain.comAnimation.swf

Now each user can embed this file on his page using embed tag. I need to get user page url's to my statistics. In most cases loaderInfo.url work great, but not in this case - it return orginal swf File path: www.exampledomain.comAnimation.swf insted of browser url or domain.

SWF Is MIA On One Domain, But Not The Other?
I have a modest webpage which I use primarily to put up the occasional photo/video of the family:

http://www.staggclan.com

...and which contains a Flash file xreferencing a Flash video. This is what it is supposed to look like: http://www.dfwaug.net/test/index.html.

As you can see - the video works fine in the latter sample (its the same hierarchy). But why can't you see the video at all on my website? You can take a look at the staggclan.com source code on that page and you can see that I am NOT xreferencing my hard drive nor am I referencing an image which hasn't been uploaded (even if I were - you'd at least see a "broken image" indicator). It doesn't even include space for where that video should be - it's like it wasn't even placed there.

For the life of me I don't know what the problem is. Why will it work in one domain but not the other (both hosted by 1&1.com)? Whoever can correctly solve this problem for me will find me ETERNALLY GRATEFUL.

All the best.

Allow Domain
I am creating a application that requires access to my web server. unfortunatly i am new to flash and know only a little bit of AS2. Does anybody know the script to allow access to the web in AS2 and AS3?

Thanks

Grab Domain/URL
I am using flash MX.

Is there any way I can get my flash movie to grab the url in the address bar and display it in a dynamic text field.

I.e if I have a .swf placed on my homepage - http://www.myhomepage.com

Thanks.

Using LocalConnection.domain()
Hello all,

I've been browsing around trying to figure out how to get the full domain (subdomain and all) into a variable. So far I have used:

var LC = new LocalConnection();
var movieDomain = LC.domain();

to get the domain, but that only returns "mysite.com". I am trying to get the subdomain included as well, ie. "subdomain.mysite.com". Is there a way to get this?

Thanks,
Steve

Nice Domain Name
Hi

Little queery on domain names. A design company that I have seen in my area has this domain name:

http://un.titled.co.uk

Does anybody know how you go about getting a domain name without 'www' and with something else in its place? (like the 'un' part of their domain name).

Would really appreciate it!

Checking Which Domain SWF Is In?
Is there a way to simply check which URL a SWF resides on?

I want to have something load in if it's on one site, and something else load in if it's on another. Just want to check the URL the SWF is embeded in.

Such as:

if (mydomain == "www.somesite.com") {
//do something
} else {
//don't do something
}

Thanks!

Load Swf Only At My Domain
Hi,
I have a flash movie made already but wants to have it loaded / shown only when it is played from my website domain n not others or even in local computer.

How do I write a script to check the URL variable such that if the SWF is opened from mydomain.com, it will load. If the SWF is opened from otherdomain.com or local computer, it will not load / display nothing at all.

I searched the forum and found something similiar
http://www.flashkit.com/board/showpo...68&postcount=6

However I am not opening an image but the whole flash file from my website (php). I want to prevent users from gaining access to my swf files from outside my domain like from the temporary internet files where the swf is downloaded while viewing. Even if they click the swf file from the temp internet folder, it should open up from my domain, if not, it should not display anything.

Please help! I am still quite a beginner at Flash or Actionscripting. All advice are appreciated!

Cross Domain
Hello,
I have been messing around with socket servers and had few questions about cross domain. If I have a flash client on a webhost and my server on another host, when the client connects to the socket server will it send a policy request to the socket server or look for crossdomain.xml in the root directory?

I would appreciate any help i can get.

Thanks

Help With Cross Domain From An SWF
Greetings flash world,

I am currently stumped on a project. I am giving a weather report through a flash player. However for the twist, this is not a browser run flash file. This is being run from my desktop.

This runs into problem when dealing with the "sandbox" security system flash has set up. My file will go grab the information from xml files. Starts off getting the city from an xml file on the user sides computer (the one with the SWF file). Then it contacts Environment Canada and using the city name, it asks for the code number and province (Canadian program) in which to grab the weather from. Then re contacts EC, and using the code number and province, it finds the weather report and downloads that information into the SWF to be displayed on the fly.

Now all this does work perfectly while running it straight out of the Flash pro program. However if you run the SWF it runs into the security problem and doesn't bring back any information past grabbing the city name from the local XML file.

In an experiment I set flash up to run through a php server to go grab the information. This does work... however once again I am not running my SWF through an internet browser (what PHP needs). So that isn't working.

And as for a conformation.xml file or anything, the server I am trying to access of course isn't my own and there for i can not add such a file to the server to allow flash to access it from another domain, such as my computer.

So how can I access cross domain information from a local none browser run SWF file?

See if you can rap your mind around this one. No one seems to have an answer as of yet to solve this problem.

[CS3] About Cross Domain
Hi,

I'm new to this forum, want to ask about cross domain issue. If we call a swf (using embed) from another domain where the swf is loading some images (and those images are in the same domain as swf), is there any cross domain issue?

[CS3] How To Run A .swf From Another Domain? (AC-RunActiveContent.js)
I only vaugely remember how to do this in Flash 8...but I'm trying to embed a Flash swf from another server onto another site's homepage...what variables and parameters do I need to make this all work?

Swf And Referring Domain
Is there a way to find the domain of the page that loads my swf. For example, someone embeds an swf served from my server on their www.myspace.com page. Is there is way for me to determine that the request is coming from myspace.com at runtime?

I have the option of using AS 3 if it provides a solution.

Loading XML From Other Domain
I think my problem is quite simple but i hope there is a solution:
I want a SWF to load an XML file that is on another server

just for this example: swf is on www.mydomain2.com/myswf.swf

and my XML code is like this:

ActionScript Code:
function xmlLoaded(success){

if (success){
_root.myText_txt.text = myXml.firstChild.nodeName;
} else {
_root.myText_txt.text = 'error parsing xml';
}
}

myXml = new XML();
myXml.ignoreWhite = true;
myXml._parent = this;
myXml.onLoad = xmlLoaded;

myXml.load('http://www.mydomain.com/myXML.xml');

the problem is, as soon as the XML is not on the same domain as my SWF it can't load the XML.

Am i doing something wrong? Is this a security issue?

I hope someone has a solution.

Loading SWF From A Different Domain
Hi all,
I am have trouble loading SWF from a different domain.

Files:
index.html (localhost)
index.swf ((localhost)
external.swf (different domain)

Index.html holds index.swf, index.swf has a movie clip that loads external.swf using loadMovie(). When i double click on index.html, everything works just fine, external.swf does load inside the movie clip. But when i run index.html on the webserver (http://localhost/index.html) the movie clip does not load external.swf. I think it has something to do with the swfs being on different domains.

Please tell me how to fix this problem

Thanks

Domain Lock With AS3?
Hi,

I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to write a domain lock in AS3? That means locking an SWF file to a certain domain so that it will not run on any other URLs. Maybe there are any tutorials out there that I haven't found yet?

I remember darkly how it was done in AS2 but I guess there are better/safer ways in AS3?

What Is The Right Application Domain?
Hi,

when you make an Flash Site, and separate the sections from this Site into particular Swf's, which Application Domain would be the best?

For example on this Image:
Should it load into the current Application Domain, that's on the Image the "Application Domain 1".

Or would it better to load it into a new Child Application Domain, "Application Domain 3" on the Image?

Cross Domain XML
So...when I'm accessing an XML file on another domain, I know I need to use a cross domain XML file to allow access to that said file...

However, do I need to reference that cross domain file from inside my ActionScript? Or does it just have to be in the same directory as the the file I am accessing?

Loading JPG From Another Domain
I'm trying to load a jpg from another domain than the flash is run from (http://localhost for example), the images are loading, but the Event.COMPLETE and Event.INIT arent dispatching.. and i really need to handle them.. How do i do that?

Here's the scipt example:

ActionScript Code:
var ldr:Loader = new Loader();
var urlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.modernlifeisrubbish.co.uk/images/illustrations/google-as-a-giant-robot.jpg");

ldr.load(urlReq);
addChild(ldr);

ldr.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, imgLoaded);
function imgLoaded(event:Event):void
{
var contt:Bitmap = event.target.content;
contt.scaleY = .5;
contt.scaleX = .5;
}

Is There A Way To Tell The Domain My Flash Is In?
I want to be able to tell if my project is on my domain.

that way if someone steels it and puts it on their domain...I can make it pop up an error and say something like "this application was stolen please click here to go to the right version" and link them back to mine.

any thoughts?

Thanks!

Domain Or URL Question
Let me give you an example...

The url of the swf file is www.mydomain.com/myflash.swf

There's a htm file at www.otherdomain.com/mypage.htm, which has this code in it:

HTML Code:
<object width="550" height="400">
<param name="movie" value="myflash">
<embed src="http://www.mydomain.com/myflash.swf" width="550" height="400" ></embed>
</object>
Is it possible to make the swf file read the www.otherdomain.com/mypage.htm url or domain name when it's loaded from www.otherdomain.com/mypage.htm?

P.S. loaderInfo.url and loaderInfo.loaderURL doesn't work... they give me www.mydomain.com... not www.otherdomain.com...

LoadVariables From Different Domain
Does anyone have the solution to loading variables into a movie from a different domain, other than the calling movie?
There has to be a way, a trick, something!

I've tried everything out there, and sadly, I have no hair left to pull out!
Macromedia has a solution for MX and up, not Flash 5 here

Here's what I'm attempting:
1. Original movie resides in originaldomain.com
The original movie has the following actions:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
c++;
if (c >= 720) {
loadMovie ("http://000.000.000.000/time.swf?"+random(1000), 1);
c = 1;
}
}

[This works properly]

time.swf, residing on otherdomain.com, retrieves the date and time via a cold fusion script which resides in the same directory.

The time movie has the following actions:
onClipEvent (load) {
loadVariables("time.cfm?"+"today="+today+"&"+"time ="+time+", _root);
}

The best attempt I've made was delibrately setting a variable in the time.swf, i.e., today="Friday";
The calling movie picked this up but refuses to pick up the dynamic data.

I'm so compulsive about this not working; so much that I may have to quit this profession...

Thanks for any replies

AS Domain Problem?
I have a actionscript problem, the following occurs:

I have a main.swf which loads a movie.swf with loadMovie() into an empty movieclip from a different domain. When I try to control the movie.swf from main.swf it does not work if I use for instance gotoAndPlay.

When I had the two swf on the same domain there was no problem. What have i missed? The two swf must be placed on different domains.

When the movie.swf is placed on the external server and I try to play the main.swf local everything works great.

XML From External Domain?
Hi all,

I have set up a simple little weather box that pulls an xml file from NOAA and displays some of the basic info on a site. At first I had the xml.load function call the xml file using its absolute url e.g http://blahblah.xml.

When I test the movie all is well. But then I upload it to my webserver and it won't load the info - I'm gonna guess this has to do with the local domain data thing with flash.

So then I took the testing a step further and threw an ASP script in the mix which simple callls the foreign xml file into the local asp script for the return to flash, but STILL, its not working!

Does anyone know how to overcome the cross-domain issue? Please help!

Thanks!
