Same Swf As Header On Many Pages...but Reloads



Ok...i have a preloader in my swf...

the preloader works fine and if i click on refresh in the browser, the page shows instantly, so it's OK.

BUT, i have the same swf as an header to each page of my web sites...
The problem is if i click "services.php", the preloader starts download the page and if i refresh, i don't see it.

BUT, when i click any other pages, for example : "demo.php", the same flash header shows more quickly then when not in cache...but preloader reshows !!!

PLEASE HELP...

My code
2 scenes then in 1st scene, 2 frames:

frame 1:
// Hides displayed elements
this.reelmc._visible = false;
this.loadbar._visible = false;
percent_display = "";

//this.onEnterFrame=function(){
total_bytes = _root.getBytesTotal();
loaded_bytes = _root.getBytesLoaded();
percent = int((loaded_bytes/total_bytes)*100);

if(!isNan(percent)){
//trace(percent+"% loaded");
if (percent == 0) {
percent_display = "";
} else {
percent_display = Math.ceil(percent) + "%";
}
this.loadbar._visible = true;
this.loadbar._xscale = percent;
if (percent > 1) {
this.reelmc._visible = true;
}
}

if(percent == 100){
delete this.onEnterFrame;
this.reelmc._visible = false;
percent_display = "";
this.loadbar._visible = false;
gotoAndPlay("Banner", 1);
}

frame2:
gotoAndPlay(1);

Flash Header Reloads On All Pages... Help Please

The answer is probably simple, but I only want the animation to play on the home page link.

Thanks,

Flash Header Reloads On Every Page
I am pretty new to this type of flash.
I am working with a template and have tweeked the flash the way I need it.

I am sure this is pretty basic but can't seem to locate anything on it.

My new flash header I put in reloads on every page.  Is there something I need to specify in the code somewhere to stop this?

If you go to carbeliminator.com/test.htm
then click on "about" (only template link that works) it will reload the same header again.  
I would imagine this would get pretty annoying for a customer.

Any direction you all can lead would be awesome.  


Main Page Reloads Between Pages
I have a main swf that loads and unloads other movies. Problem is, they always go back to the main page for a second before moving on to the new page.

Can you tell me what I've done wrong?

[CS3] XML Reloads More Than It Should?
Good day;

I have a vote system on my site that reloads the xml variables to display the new hit. The problem is that everytime you vote it causes the song currently playing in the Mp3 Radio to restart or, if stopped, to play again.

On Site Load:
-The Radio loads its contents from an XML file, and starts playing (located on its own Level);
-The Mp3Vote XML file loads and displays the current votes (located on its own level);

On Vote Click:
-the Mp3Vote Movie Clip (ten frames in timeline, stops at frame 10), goto's frame one and plays back to frame 10, thus reloading the XML info.

The Problem:
-Both the Radio and Vote AS is in its own MovieClip,
-Scene One only has 1 frame,
-RAdioXML MovieClip only has one frame, thus there "should" not be any reloading of the Radio

example: http://www.northernmics.com/!Login/!NM_Main.html

Loadmovie() Always Reloads?
I have a flash movie that consists of 4 pages which slide into and out of the vieing area of my main flash movie. One of the pages is quite big as it contains a lot of images so i load it into a fake movie when the user presses the button for that page. When the button is pressed this code is called:

if (movieLoaded) {
// Don't load the movie again
} else {
loadMovie("swf/library.swf",_root.shutterSlide.libraryMC);
}

So the movie loads, but when the user selects another button and then returns to the button for that page the movie is loaded again, now I place the line

_root.movieLoaded = true; in the library.swf movie so when it is loaded the main movie knows it's there, but it seems that the movieLoaded is not being set in the main movie, can someone claify if I should be setting the variable flag another way? should I be telling movieLoaded in the main movie another way?

Thanks

How Do I Know When Main.asc Reloads?
I am working on an application that uses a main.asc plus two apps that connect with it. How can I tell when main has unloaded so I can be sure my edited copy is the one that's running?

I know it's supposed to unload when the last client has disconnected, and I don't doubt that it is. The question is, how can I confirm this?

LoadVariables And Page Reloads?
Index.php is a template page that gets loaded over and over, depending on what the user clicks on in the site. Content of the page (obviously) changes depending on what they clicked on. (see it live at http://www.nebularpg.com/sourcebook) ... cute little animation at top of page shows site logo and, at the far left, shows the user's name or "unknown user" if they have not yet logged in. Does this in Flash by: loadVariables("GetUser.php","0");

PROBLEM: Once the user logs in and the page reloads, it doesn't change what's being displayed in the upper left. Since the Flash animation restarts, shouldn't it also re-access the GetUser.php page and update the username dynamic text box?

<confused>

Page Reloads Randomly
Hello, I have a flash site that is using a bunch of loadMovie actions. THere is a glitch that my client is reporting...I have not been able to recreate it unfortunately but I am hoping someone has had experience with it and therefore a solution!

Here is the url

Any advice????

Changing Div Reloads Flash
I'm trying to use DHTML with flash, where I make a javascript call from within ActionScript using the ExternalInterface object. My first problem is that my call isn't working in IE, but works in FF, but this may be because of activation, so i'll test it once I get around that.

My real problem, however, involves DHTML. I have my flash file wraped inside a DIV tag, with the flash movie width and height 100%. I can then set the width and height of the DIV tag to change the size of my flash Stage (since I have it on noscale). When I change the position attribute of my div tag from "relative" (or unassigned) to "absolute", my flash movie reloads. Has anyone had a similar problem or does anyone know a work around for this?

Local FLV - Video Reloads
Is there anyway to cache a FLV on a CD/projector?
When I play a FLV in the FLVPlayback component, the video loads, but if I stop the video and replay it, it completely re loads the video.

I'm trying to get a seemless playback, but with this reloading, there is a lag.

Help Please? Movie Reloads - I Loose My Place
Please Help, I keep going in circles but no solution.

I have made a menu in falsh that is embeded in a template that was used to generate the web pages for a site. The menu simulates great in Flash, but in a server, when a page is selected in the menu, the new page is loaded, (which is what I desired), but the flash movie also gets reloaded and thus the variable I passed indicating what frame should advance to is ignored and the menu displays same as the first option.

I have been reading about passing variables using javascript to flash, but it seems that these are ignored as the new page loads.

Can someone shine any light on what I am doing wrong, and how to do it right?

Also, I would like to have some links at the bottom of the htm page for navigation. When those are selected, and the new page is loaded, I would like for the menu to indicate the page being viewed, so I am trying to also pass the variable to flash using javascript, but again, the menu keeps showing the frames as if the variable was not passed.

Your help is much appreciated!

Bypassing Intro When Page Reloads
There has got to be a simple answer to this but I sure don’t know what it is.

I have a Flash movie with an intro that is inserted in the home (html) page. Selecting a link on the home page loads another page (I know…duh). When initiating “back” in the browser the movie reloads (which it should) and the intro plays again. Don’t want that, just want the main presentation to play.

The only thing I can think of is to have the intro page separate and when it’s finished load another page containing the main movie. Surely there’s a better way.

Flash Reloads When Resizing Browser
Ok, I am not really sure what is wrong here.

I have a flash movie on a site I'm creating for work and some people testing it out noticed that it reloads the flash each time you size (or resize) the browser. So I tried it and sure enough, making the browser bigger or smaller causes a reload each time it shifts...which could be many times, which is annoying.

If you go to this site and resize, you'll see what I mean.

http://hpd.athamptonroads.com/test2/index.html

Anyone have this sort of problem before?

I don't know if there's a setting somewhere I need to adjust or what?

This is my first flash movie I've made, so I had to deal with this before.

Pretty confused. Please help.

Passing Vars Reloads Movie
I'm trying to pass a variable to a flash movie, like this
src="main.swf?link=1"
The only problem is that even if the main.swf movie has been loaded before, when I pass the variable it reloads it. It kind of thinks that it is a new movie.
Is this sypposed to happen?

Thanks in advance.

[F8] Loaded External Swf Reloads After ~ 1sec
Hi folks

I have this code for loading swf from an array, and it works great except one little thing. The lodaded swfs reloads after one second and then it plays like normal. I have placed the start and stop attribute to ensure that the swf doesn't start before its fully loaded, but then this happens.

Can anyone explain what I am doing wrong?

Thanks!


PHP Code:



function loadSwf(sceneSelect){
        
        this.loader.loadMovie(scenes[sceneSelect]);
        
        this.onEnterFrame = function(){        
            if(this.loader.getBytesLoaded(scenes[sceneSelect]) == this.loader.getBytesTotal(scenes[sceneSelect])) {
            
                          this.loader.play();
                this.loader._visible = 1;
                delete this.onEnterFrame;
            }
            else {
                this.loader.stop();
                this.loader._visible = 0;

Mask Reloads Movie Clip
Can anyone tell me how to fix this. I put a movie clip inside a ScrollPane. Then I masked the scroll pane. Whenever the mask hits a keyframe on the timeline it reloads the movie clip that is inside the ScrollPane. Why? Please help. I don't want the movie clip to reload. I want it to stay on the frame it is currently on.

Color Transform Reloads Movieclip
I have a movie clip with 4 frames. I programatically create 3 instances of it, and send each one to a different frame. If I later apply a color transform to one of the clips, it plays through all the frames and goes back to it's correct frame. Why does it do that, and can I stop it from doing that?

Thanks

Sound Loop With Multiple Reloads
Hi,

I have created a flash file and I'd like to add some background music. The flash file consists of a basic background and some buttons. When the mouse enters a button, the move flips to a new frame, when it exits the button, the movie loops back to frame one.

How do i set up the music so that I don't get multiple overlays of the sound file when the movie loops back to frame one ?

thanks in advance

Once A Movie Has Played, How Do I Get It To Skip To The Last Frame If It Reloads?
So I built a webpage in both Flash and HTML (flash components nested in HTML tables).

I have an intro movie that plays directly into the homepage (all one movie). The movie ends with the homepage - which has links to secondary (HTML) pages.

Here's my question. When I go to the secondary pages, everything is fine, but if I click the "back" button the browser I end up playing the intro all over again, when all I want is the last frame, where the intro movie ends and is the homepage.

Is there a way for the movie to jump to the very last frame once the intro has already been played once?

As a temporary fix, I created an intermediate page between the intro movie and the secondary pages - an actual HTML "homepage" with flash components in it. It looks exactly like the last frame of the intro movie - but the client didn't like the "jump" blip that it created when the browser had to load another HTML page, he wanted to keep the intro to homepage segue smooth.

Is there an actionscript that I can put on the first frame that will sense if the movie has already played once, and jump ahead? Or am I doomed actually have to build the whole site as flash movie - something I really don't want to do.

Thanks for any input...

oh yeah, i'm running MAC OS X 10.3.9, Flash MX Professional 2004 Version 7.0

Flash Reloads In IE After Clicking Internal Link
Hi all,

I'm having some trouble with a Flash file and hope someone knows a nice work around.

First, this only happens in IE. Second, you can experience this issue by visiting: http://www.missionusa.com/test.html

I have flash buttons at the top that link to anchored sections in the HTML. The action script uses getUrl("#_anchor"). If we use nothing but the buttons, everything works fine.

However, if you click on a button, then click on a link at the bottom of the section to go back to the top, and then click on another button, the flash movie will start to replay as if the page has been reloaded.

So far, we have tried a variety of changes to the links to see if they would fix it, including:

* making the links in the HTML be "%23_anchor" (an idea from someplace else in DevShed). Still fails.
* changing the target="_self" in the HTML links to nothing.
* adding target="_self" to the flash files.

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks,

Reid

Flash Stops/Reloads After Parent Div Hidden
Alright I have an interesting problem that I can't seem to find a fix or anyone who would know how to prevent this from happening.

I am using Extjs.com to do some tab management inside my web application, so I have a single content are with multiple tabs. In one of the tab flash tutorials load up. When I am in that tab I can start the flash movie just fine, however when I move to another tab the flash movie stop playing.

When I switch tabs the javascript is modifiying the CSS attributes of the divs and placing a tag of visibility: hidden and visibility: visible. It seems that when the flash becomes "hidden" it stop playing and restarts from the beginning when it becomes "visible".

I have been told this is a feature built into flash to save computer cycles when the user isn't looking at the flash movie directly. While I don't doubt this, I would think there is a way to prevent this behavior.

If anyone has the solution or knows where I can find it I would be much appreciated.

Loaded Movie Doesn't Cache (reloads Each Time)
Hi, just completed my first flash site, but am having some problems with loadMovie controls. I think I must be missing a trick somewhere.

URL: http://www.domerocker.com/2004/firsthalf/

I have it set so that a button click loads the .swf file into a target (empty movie clip instance) in the main scene.

PROBLEM: Everytime the user clicks the country buttons, the movie begins to load (with the preloader) even if this movie has been viewed and loaded already.

EXPECTED: If the movie has already been viewed, the movie should be in the browser cache and the user should not have to see the preloader again for that country.

SOLUTION: ????

Possible To Create A Button That Reloads/refreshes The Entire Page?
hi there.

first of all I was wondering how it would be possible to create a button that reloads/refreshes the entire page. is this possible?

secondly, is it possible to create a limit on the maxnumber to be entered? for example, i have textboxes (InputText) with the max characters allowed to be 2, but i'm wondering how i would limit the max number to "49" instead (of it being 99)?

thanks!

How Stop Sound On Flash Movie When Page Reloads?
CLICK HERE TO VIEW THE SITE

The problem is obvious. The flash banner has sound. Whenver you go to ANY page the page reloads and the sound replays.

This template only allows you to use one header, so I cannot make 1 with sound and 1 without sound.

Any ideas how I can handle this? Not sure if frames will work in this case. Your ideas????

JavaScript Clock Reloads Page Causing SWF Movie Flicker
Hi, I hope someone can help me with this problem.

I am new to Flash, don't even have the software yet, but created a swf movie by exporting layers from Illustrator CS2 to create a swf animation. My banner works just fine.

Problem is, I want to place it on my homepage and once in place there's a weird phantom banner flicker going on over the other side of the page from where the banner is actually sitting and looking perfect.

I think the problem is that I am using a JavaScript clock that displays a digital clock inc. seconds for two timezones on the home page. I think that the problem is caused by that script reloading the page and causing the phantom swf flicker as the movie reloads each second. All the other images are cached and sit still.

Is there any way to:

a) embed an instruction with the swf animation to tell it to get cached and not reload?

b) specify that only one div area (i.e. the clock) of your page is able to reload?

or c) any better ideas.

I can easily just place the banner on a clock-less page inside my site and it works fine. But part of the exercise is to try to max out the click throughs and it would be a shame to be unable to use the homepage or to have to pick between the banner or the clock on the homepage.

Thanks in advance for your help. I have a Flash book ordered up and will download the tester version of Flash 8 as soon as it arrives. I look forward to learning much from this forum in the near future.

[MX04] Loadmovie-- Actionscript Goes Wacky On Loaded Movie If User Reloads
I'm having an issue with loading a .swf into an empty movieclip. It loads when a button is pushed, however the problem occurs if the user hits the load button again. This sends the actionscript on the movie being loaded to act really weird and do some odd things.

simple actionscript for the button:

on (release) {
_root.holder.loadMovie("newimages/swing/swing1.swf");
}

Should I maybe do a loadMovieNum? and resort to levels? Or is there some script that will unload the movie and then reload it when pressed to get a "clean" version?

(I'm unsure if it makes any difference, but the actionscript on the movie being loaded is all on the first frame and uses mx.transitions.)

Using CSS And Javascript To Display A Div With Flash In It, Mozilla Reloads The Flash File
I am using CSS and Javascript to display a div with an embedded flash object in it. Mozilla Firefox reloads the flash file when the div is displayed! (I dont want this to happen, as it's unexpected functionality, my expectation would be that the flash file would not change it's state at all, and would remain in whatever state it was left in.)

I was wondering if anyone has come across this issue and is there something I can do to prevent this from occurring?

To be more specific, I have a single HTML page with 8 flash files embedded in it (yeah I know, it's a bit much). I am then using CSS and Javascript to display (via a numbered link (with an id)) an equivalent numbered div tag containing the flash file. Mozilla Firefox reloads the flash object that is in the div. Internet Explorer will not do this and will instead, load the flash object only upon initial view of the flash object. All subsequent links (in IE) will NOT reload the flash object on the page. I'm guessing this is some kind of difference in the flash player as an Active X object and the plugin, or is it just IE being clever? Or am I way off?

Anyway, here is the code...

Loading Pages Within Pages
I have a flash menu I made. It's pretty big (741 x 426). I have several buttons on the menu with some animation. Each time you click on one of the buttons, the menu and the button does an animation.

My problem is my main menu, has many sub menu's. I dont want to go to a new page each time they click on a link.

I want the sub menu's to be able to load any of the pages on my site at the bottom of the page clicking on the buttons. So I want the page to be blank at first except the flash menu, when you click a button it loads a page at the bottom, without having to go to a new page...

I cant do frames because of the large size of the menu and I want the menu to dissapear when you scroll since it's so big.

So what's the easiest way to load a html page within a page and what action would I use to make it happen? I just recently got a flash mp3 player that loads files using xml, is that possible to laod html files onto a page with xml?

i really want to make some kind of cool effect in the beginning with those music and the loops.

also while loading it would be nice to have pre loaders.

the thing is, there hasn't been a tutorial on making flash effects for headers

Well if there will be someone willing to help out, that would be great.

also since i don't know how to create any of these effects on headers and stuff, and i am very new to it. what is the best way to learn flash?

because most people i know learn their flashes in school -_-

SWF Header
Hi all,

I PM with a software development company, which provides data and software for car dealers.

One of our products is a wysiwyg webeditor. In the new version, we'll implement the posibility to embed swf files. No big deal, generally. But now there is a slight problem. With the routine the programmer uses, there is now swf-header analysis. This means, that the swf file is inserted with a 'default size', 300*200 px, no matter what the correct size is.

Now, so far I have found out, that the size is written in the swf header as FrameSize. But, of course its encoded. Does anyone know a open-source routine or have a detailled description, so that the programmer can develope his own routine?

Tnx in advance.
Adrian

Get Variable From URL Header
I currently have a flash file (swf) (version 5) on our website, that will load variables from a txt file using the loadvariables ("text.txt",0) command. I am attempting to set up a hyperlink in an email that will allow the recipient of the email to link to the flash and load the variables from a specific txt file. I would like to accomplish this by including the name of the txt file in the URL header as a variable. This way, I would hope to retrieve the variable on the first frame of my flash file using loadvariables (urlvariable + ".txt", 0). Ultimately, I would be able to send different url links to different recipients and allow them to load different variables into the flash file. I have researched both the loadvariables and getURL commands and am still having trouble.

Please help.

Eric
