Flash :: Is There A Chromless Fix For The Xp Sp1 Update?

Chromless Pop-up In MX
Can anyone help me with the following problem?

I'm trying to create a custom pop-up that is activated when the user clicks on a button but i DON'T want to have to insert anything into the html page as described in various tutorials etc on the web, i've actually done this before in flash 4 but for the life of me i can't remember how, any help would be greatly appreciated as this is giving me a constant headache.

Thanks in advance and i hope i made some sense.

Question About The Chromless Tut
Hey all, I followed the tutorial for a chromless window in Flash 2004. My question is; is it possible to have a number of different links for the window. I want to use it for a number of different buttons on my site to open different portfolio peices. In the HTML code it seems as though I can only put in one url.

Chromless...woes
Ok,
Saw the post below on chromless windows and have copied the code into the get url button. Also copied the code (Javascript) and added it to the html page. Likewise had uploaded the chromless.js as well as made sure it was in the head tag of the html page. All that happens is that the get url button opens a regular browser page. Any suggestions?????????????????

Dynamic Text Field Won't Show Update Until NEXT Update Happens
Hi,

In a very simple Flash file with bascially just a dynamic text field and a button I attached some very simple code to the button that updates the text fields .text parameter, like this:

on(click) {
some_textfield.text = some_value;
}

With trace(...) I have verified that "some_value" is what I want it to be. However, the txt field doe NOT get updated! It gets that (b ythen old) value the NEXT time I press the button!

So when I start the flash movie and click the button nothing happens, the next time I see the value I should have seen the first time, etc. - always one event late. Since the trace() I put inside the on(click) handler shows the correct value I'm really at a loss to explain why the text field is not updated.

Any explanations?

PS: By the way, I'm using font "_sans" so there's no font to embed, but trying Arial with "embed numbers" (I want to display an integer number) doesn't work either. I only mention that because I think to have observed something like the above strange behavior caused by embedding (or not) the characters.

Player 9 Update-Firefox Update And Bandwidth
Hi,

I have a site of mine online which I created some 2.5 years ago probably with Flash MX--Recently, my hosting company informed me that I had allotted my bandwidth allowance--I had recently installed the latest version of the Flash Player as well as the latest version of Mozilla Firefox--It seems that through viewing my site in the updated Firefox browser with the updated player there was some code in my swf which apparently kept trying to download the mp3 file --Some 271769 hits in a few hours resulting in using 1341.07 GB of bandwidth, all originating from IP address, btw--The hosting company is threatening to charge me at the rate of $10 per 5GB over my allotted bandwidth-I get 20GB free per month--That means they are planning to charge me over $2,600 --
Anyway, here is the code:

Code:
jimi = new Sound();
jimi.loadSound("jimi.mp3", true);
jimi.onSoundComplete = function() {
jimi.loadSound("jimi.mp3", true);
};
Which has not caused any problems in over 2 years and countless viewings until the recent installations of the most current security updates to the Flash 9 Player and Firefox-

Does anyone know if the code is now incompatible with the new player and/or firefox and if there is a way to fix this without redoing the entire site in AS3?

Thanks
---Yvette

UPDATE X & Y
I'm trying to track the cusor and display the x and y coords in dynamic text fields.
Heres what I have:
/*I created 2 dynamic text fields and gave them var names of
xpos and ypos inside a new mc. I placed the new mc on the main stage*/

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
xpos = _root.blank._x;
ypos = _root.blank._y;
}

/*Then made another new mc named cross hairs placed on the main stage*/

onClipEvent (load) {
Mouse.hide();
}
onClipEvent (mouseMove) {
_x = _root._xmouse;
_y = _root._ymouse;
updateAfterEvent();
}

Everything works great execpt the x and y only show the first 3 digits, no decimals. BUT WAIT!!! In Flash 5, the movie works great in test mode, but when exported to .swf format it only shows 3 digits. (Ocassionaly I'll see a .95 pop up on the xpos field.) BUT THERES MORE!!! In a Flash 5 exported movie, that isnt working, it will work if I manually resize the window, or full screen it. Crazy! In Flash MX, it does exactly the same thing but will not work in test mode or a manually resized window like in Flash 5.
Any thought would be appreciated!!!!

Update On The Fly?
Forgive me if this is an idiotic question. If it is, you can give me an idiotic answer. =)

But can flash update itself on the fly? Lets say i have a dynamic text field that gets variables from a .txt file.
Lets say the output on the screen is just, "Hello World!"

Is it possible to loop the movie over and over so that if i changed the .txt file to, "Hello Back!" then suddenly the flash movie will say, Hello Back. ???

Without user intervention?

Thanks..

Indy

---update---
I am having trouble updating movieClips after code is completed. Here's my problem:

I have created the basis for a scrolling Thumbnail gallery for my website where a line of thumbnails can be scrolled past a masked view window. I also want a status bar to appear at the bottom of the screen with a small movie clip that marks which part of the thumbnail bar is currently being displayed in the view window. I have worked ou the maths to calculate this and have put in the actionscript that I thought would make it fully operational. The script works to a certain degree. When i test the movie, the status movie clip does in fact sit at the point on the line that corresponds to the visible part of the thumbnail strip. However, it does not move along the bar as the thumbnail strip is scrolled. How do I get the status movieClip to constantly update it's position according to the co-ordinates sent to it by the script?

Attached is the .fla file, I hope it helps to clarify my problem!

Will There Be Another Update Soon?
I've been developing with flash since v3 and I've had more trouble with bugs in MX2004 than any previous release. One that really burns me is that the keyboard shortcuts for copy and paste frames does not work. I'm running Flash MX Professional 2004 7.0.1 on a G5 mac OS 10.3.2. Anyone else experienced this?

.exe Update
OK, I'm making a .exe file in Flash (that is, I'm making it in Flash to publish as .exe), and there's a button which hopefully will be for updating.

The button needs to check an internal value (version number) against a value in a web page, and, if they're the same, display an error message saying No updated availabale, and if they're different, goto the page.

So, if there is no update available:
User clicks button.
Button checks values against each other.
Without loading webpage, displays message saying No Updates.

And if there are updates,
User clicks button.
Button checks values and finds they're different.
Goes to update webpage.

So, put in a generalish form,

Code:
if (currentversion == latestversion) {
//show error
}
else {
getURL("http://www.update.me/now");
}
The only problem with that is latestversion can't be inside Flash.

If you don't understand, I'll try and explain it better

Any ideas?

Update Flv
So I'm trying to learn Flash, and right now I'm playing with video. Here is my problem. (if this post is in the wrong section I do apologize)

I have a page that has a video on it (flv), but I would like to update this video from time to time without having to change the file name in the swf. The problem is that since the flv is being cached on browsers the updated video never appears (unless I dump temp files first). I tried to append the url with random(#) but that doesn't seem to work as it does with xml and txt files, all that happens is I get a movie.flv?r=# file not found error. The browser doesn't seem to drop the r= part.

Is there a way that I can force a browser to reload the flv when the page is loaded?

I'm using instance.contentPath = "movie.flv"; to get the file. (FLVPlayback - Player 8 component)

Any help would be appreciated!

Doing An Update
I have a flash calculator that calls some variables from a text file in the same directory as the calculator.

The calculator will be used on a number of different laptops and i need an update button so that when the update button is clicked it automatically updates the text file with some values on a server.

What would be the best way to do this?

Web Won't Update
I keep updating my site and people aren't seeing the updates. I think it's because their browsers keep loading the swf from the cache. I know I have to clear my temporary files often when I'm developing.

Is there any way I can say, clear the cache, or tell the browser to ignore cache for this site. Javascript? Any help is appreciated.

Does Not Update
I am doing something wrong here, I am fetching information from an xml and is putting them into dynamicaly created textfields, that works. And I want it to update with setinterval, it does not work, I have traced it and the function is updating, but not the fields...

Code:
var my_xml = new XML();
my_xml.ignoreWhite = true;
my_xml.onLoad = function(success){
if (success){

varde = this;

korfil()

}
}

my_xml.load("info.xml");

i = 5;

function korfil()
{

grunden = my_xml.firstChild.firstChild;

for(k=1;k<7;k++)
{

this["arr" + k ] = grunden.childNodes[i].childNodes[4].childNodes[0] + ', ';
this["place" + k ] = grunden.childNodes[i].childNodes[5].childNodes[0];

if (this["arr" + k ]=='undefined, ')
{
this["arr" + k ] = '';
}

if (this["place" + k ]==undefined)
{
this["place" + k ] = '';
}

this["platsArrangor" + k ] = this["arr" + k ] + this["place" + k ];

this["bild" + k ] = grunden.childNodes[i].childNodes[1].childNodes[0];

this["titel" + k ] = grunden.childNodes[i].childNodes[2].childNodes[0];

this["body" + k ] = grunden.childNodes[i].childNodes[3].childNodes[0];

this["lank" + k ] = grunden.childNodes[i].childNodes[6].childNodes[0];

this["bilden" + k ].loadMovie(this["bild" + k ]);
this["brodtext" + k ].htmlText = '<a href ="' + this["lank" + k ] + '">' + this["body" + k ] + '</a>';
this["rubrik" + k ].htmlText = '<a href ="' + this["lank" + k ] + '">' + this["titel" + k ] + '</a>';
this["brodtext" + k ].setTextFormat(stilBrodtext);
this["rubrik" + k ].setTextFormat(stilRubrik);
this["platsen" + k ].htmlText = this["platsArrangor" + k ];
this["platsen" + k ].setTextFormat(stilPlats);
i++;

}

}

run = setInterval(korfil, 5000, this)

hi, i made an animation with around 100 jpgs when i first started using flash and didn't realise i should have really lowered the quality and size of the jpgs i used. i've been told i can update all the jpgs, to much smaller versions i have batch processed.

so, how do i update all of the old (very large) jpgs to the new (small in scale) jpgs??? - ive tried using the 'right click > update' function but nothing happens, i cant seem to browse for the new smaller images.

How Do You Update...?
If you are making a flash website for someone who does not know how to use flash. How do they get the site updated?

You know, when they want to add a news file. It always says the name of the person who added it if the site is for, like, a band or something.

Is there a program for doing this easily or do they just tell you what they want done and you upload the site again.

Just very interested as I may start making websites for other people soon.

MUSICMAN Here's The Update...
Hello Again,

Firstly can I say thanks for helping me out so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I did as you suggested and so far it doesn't seem too happy and isn't writing to the text file.
It is however reading from noticeboard.txt, so perhaps this means that either the write priveleges on the txt file are incorrect ( I don't how to alter that - I've checked the file properties and it is not locked (?) ), or I've got something incorrect in the script.

The actionscript to load the content of noticeboard.txt is on a frameaction the frame before the
noticeboard. The action to update noticeboard.txt is on release of the "add" button on the userinput page. I don't know if this is a particularly efficient set up.

I'm now about 24 hours from leaving for thailand and as I'm sure you can imagine this is so tantalisingly close to working! I'd love to hear anything further that may provide the solution. Once again, thanks a lot!

Yours,

Scott
