Flash :: Website Doesnt Load In Stupid Explorer Until Refresh Is Hit, Fine On Firefox...

Mozilla Works Fine, Explorer Doesnt - For My Website
I just tested my new website in two different browsers.

Mozilla shows it perfectly but iexplorer sort of "doubles" the
website so that you have to click away one "layer" get started.
I guess you just have to see it to understand:
www.johnschuette.de

I am a professional illustrator so i dont think it will look very
good to my clients. Therefor it would be great if you could help.

The swf-file seems to work like it is suposed to when i test it.

I made the site very simple. Its just a swf-file inserted inte a dreamweaver 4
document and then its just uploaded to my domain.

Maybe you could look at the html-code?
I dont know html, it would be cool if you could.

its: www.johnschuette.de

Thanks, hoping you can help me.

Why Does This Simple Movie Run So Slow In Internet Explorer But Fine In Firefox
This script is used to fade a movie clips opacity to 200 (an extra 100 to add to the pause between fading in and out) and then fade it back to 0. I used intervals to create the timing. I dont know of a better way to do it. Anyway if you check out the file under hosting at thetechtree.com you will see it loads slow in IE but fine in firefox. Anyone know why?

ActionScript Code:
var aList:Array = new Array();
aList[0] = "galaxy";
aList[1] = "KOP";
aList[2] = "ramsey";
aList[3] = "sentinel";
var xPos:Number = 336;
var yPos:Number = 265;
//
var speed:Number = 1;
var onOff:Boolean = false;
function fadeIn(targ)
{
if (_root[targ]._alpha < 200)
{
_root[targ]._alpha += 1;
} else
{
intFadeOut = setInterval(fadeOut, speed, targ);
clearInterval(intFadeIn);
}
}
//
function fadeOut(targ)
{
if (_root[targ]._alpha > 0)
{
_root[targ]._alpha -= 1;
} else
{
clearInterval(intFadeOut);
onOff = false;
}
}
//
function screen(myNumber)
{
var targ:String = aList[myNumber];
if (_root[targ]._alpha < 100 && onOff == false)
{
intFadeIn = setInterval(fadeIn, speed, targ);
onOff = true;
}
}
//
var intFadeOut = setInterval(fadeOut, speed);
clearInterval(intFadeOut);
var intFadeIn = setInterval(fadeIn, speed);
clearInterval(intFadeIn);

[F8 & CS3] Blank Website - .swf Doesnt Load?
I downloaded a template from Flash Village which said "You need Flash MX 2004 or later to edit this template." I have flash 8 and cs3.

I started editing the website with flash 8 and got a lot done, accept i was having troubles so I switched to cs3. I also re-extracted the template .zip file with all its original files (in a new folder) and copied/pasted some stuff to try and fix some of the errors that where coming up when exporting the .swf file.

When i switched to cs3, and continued to edit in flash & dreamweaver, somewhere along the lines, the .html file was now blank. I have no idea where to start to fix this, so any help is very appreciated!

Thank you!

"NewWindow" Doesn't Load In Safari And IE, But Fine In Firefox?
I can't seem to figure out why the new window only opens in firefox and doesn't in other browser? I'm pretty new to flash and have a very basic understanding of AS, but I was hoping this one would be easy, but can't find the answer in any posts. Here's my code for the button.

on (release) {
getURL ("javascript:NewWindow=window.open('http://www.crushdesign.co.uk/home.htm','newWin','width=800,height=600,lef t=0,top=0, toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars=No,status=No,res izable=No,fullscreen=no '); NewWindow.focus(); void(0);");
}

Any help would ease the headache!

Internet Explorer Issues (fine In FF)
Hey guys, I'm having some issues with loading the flash movie into IE. It seems to work fine in FF, but for some strange reason doesn't want to show up in IE. The code used to call the swf file is the folllowing:

Code:
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0" width="850" height="600">

Any ideas what I might be doing wrong here? Thanks.

.swf Is Fine, .fla Is Stupid
Alright I've been given a project and all I need to do is make a few updates to a flash site. I have the .swf that is on the site and it runs fine, however the .fla seems to be completely different than the .swf. The images and text and everything is in the same place, however the movie doesn't stop even though there is code to make it stop, etc. It seems that is just ignoring some AS all together, if anyone can check it out you can download the .fla and view the .swf

Send Works Fine SendAndLoad Doesnt
i have followed nwebbs tutorial http://www.nwebb.co.uk/nw_htmlsite/i...ashphp1&part=1

and the first part is a send which outputs the results in a _blank window. the second part is sendAndLoad but i do not recieve a variable back.

i run the swf on one server and access the php file on another - i can see the php file as send works fine, but when i change it to sendAndLoad to get a variable back it fails in the onLoad.

i guess its not the script but something to do with the variable being sent back - the php is fine as per the tute.

any ideas ?

.flv/swf Vid Tests Fine, Doesnt Play In Webpage
I have created a flash 7.0 .swf that plays a .flv file within it. I have the files (fla, swf, flv) saved in the same directory locally and the source .fla file tests fine. I can click on the the spawned .swf file and the video plays fine in flash viewer 7.0.

But when I add the .swf to an .html document (saved in the same local directory) and open the web page in my browser (IE 6) the video does not play.

I used the following code to play the video:
playFLV ("file://videoname.flv;

Is there something wrong with how I locate the .flv in the code above? Do I need to use a URL filepath instead? I am somewhat new to this so any help would be awesome.

Refresh In Internet Explorer
Site (SWF): http://blog.lutonfm.co.uk/nowplaying/nowplaying.swf

I'm building a basic 'now playing' flash applet for a radio sration website. The now playing info is uploaded via FTP by the software in the studio as a text file, and I have got the Flash to look at the text file every ten seconds and update a dynamic text field which displays the artist and song title.

When displayed as an embedded object in HTML, it works perfectly in Firefox but fails to refresh in Internet Explorer, until the entire page is refreshed.

Is there something wrong with the Flash file, or is there any way I can update using Javascript or something similar?

My SWF Works Fine With Firefox, Not With IE...
Hello all,

I have a problem with Internet Explorer (6 et 7) while everything works fine with Firefox 3 and Google Chrome.

Here is my problem :

1 – I have one SWF (a map of which can be clicked) inserted in a HTML page via the Satay method with the following code:

Code:

<div id="map">
<fieldset>
<legend>Region</legend>
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="./flash/zzzzPost.swf" width="350" height="293.8">
<param name="movie" value="./flash/zzzzPost.swf" />
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
</object>
</fieldset>
</div>
This insertion works fine with all the browsers: the map is displayed and the colour of the regions change when the mouse is over them.

2 – My HTML page also contains 15 checkboxes and 2 text zones that users can fill with dates.

3 – It also contains a Javascript function called valeurElements(). This function returns an array whose first indice contains the ckeckboxes that have been checked (1,7,15 for example) and the second indice contains the dates (10/30/2008,10/31/2008 for example).

I just want to specify that this function works correctly with all the browsers and return the good values when I use it with a submit button, even with IE. I am nearly sure that this function in not the problem.

4 – Finally, in the Action Script code (AS3) of my zzzzPost.swf, I read the result of the Javascript function valeurElements() so that I can affect the returned values to some variables that I place as parameters in the URL where I want to redirect users, as follows:

Code:
function sourisUp(evt:MouseEvent)
{
var valeurElements:Array;
valeurElements = ExternalInterface.call("valeurElements");

// PHP page where users will be redirected.
var adresse:URLRequest = new URLRequest("./mapage.php");

// Variables to be sent.
var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
variables.type_entite = typeEntite;
variables.code_entite = codeEntite;
variables.type_evenement = valeurElements[0];
variables.date_evenement = valeurElements[1];

// Variables are sent to the URL.
adresse.data = variables;

// Datas are sent with the Post method.
adresse.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;

// URL is sent.
navigateToURL(adresse);
}
Unfortunately, if everything works fine with Firefox and Google Chrome, IE returns the following error when I click on my SWF map:

Quote:

Line : 1
Car : 7
Error : Syntax error
Code : 0
URL : http://localhost/mancom/recherche.php

I really need help to fix this problem, could you please give me a solution?

In advance, thank you very much!

Best regards,

Mafate

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Also, I'm currently building this with Dreamweaver and its not an actual site yet....its simply an assortmant of folders on my HDD right now....but the Profle Shot.swf is in the html folder. If it helps better to actually post this to my website, I can....Just let me know

Fine In Firefox, But Missing Graphics In IE
Hello,
I have a flash banner that plays great in Firefox, and even looks great in IE on my PC, but my client says that when he views it in IE on his PC, some graphics are missing. Now, I did strip out the javascript that Flash generated in the HTML file, just so I don't have to include that pesky JS file, but I don't know if that would cause the problem. Has anyone had this issue before? Thank you!

SWF Plays In Firefox Fine But Disappears In IE 6
I have created a presentation in Flash 8 Professional and exported the swf to require flash player 8.

If I view the presentation in Firefox, it works as expected.

If I view the presentation in IE6, a portion of the swf disappears - usually the lower 1/3 of the presentation. The swf keeps playing, but the bottom disappears.

Why?

Flash Buttons Work Fine In IE But Not In Firefox
Hi

I m working on a web page that consists of flash buttons that plays external mp3 files when pressed. It is very simple page all i did was to embed flash buttons to an html file.

Also when i refresh the page in firefox it loads additional buttons but not all of them and loaded buttons seems to be random. I would appreciate if anyone experienced the similar behavior and how it is solved.

Flash Loads Twice In IE Fine In Firefox/ Safari
I have a flash movie set up to call a selection of Jpgs from an xml file. Everything works fine locally but when deployed to the server the flash loads the movie and then quickly reloads the movie and starts again. This is most noticable in IE6 but it has happened in FF as well. Is anyone aware of an issue that would cause this. Hopefully there is a fix I can set up.

I am attacing a selection of html code as well since I believe the issue may lay in that.
Thanks for any help!

CSS Problem Fine In IE/Safari Horrible In Netscape/Firefox
here's the site: www.brainvise.com/testing

It works in IE and Safari, but I can't seem to get it to work in Firefox or Netscape (at least on a mac). On these, it displays a humongous bottom margin of white. I'm thinking it's a css problem, but I've tried a bunch of different combinations. Does anyone have any ideas?

Question - FLV's Play Fine In IE, But Not Firefox, Safari Or Opera -Why?
Hi I really hope someone can help on this... my flash developer's all but given up and I have no clue how to fix this problem.

I've made a series of trailers available on my site (www.WorldCinemaOnline.com), and encoded them using flash video.

The issue is that i'm having problems getting these trailers to work in any other browser apart from Internet Explorer... A typical example of where the problem can be found is at: http://www.worldcinemaonline.com/fil...-Le-Monde.html

In Internet Explorer, when you press 'play' the video player fades in, begins buffering, and starts to play back as expected.

In every other browser I have tried, however, (Safari, Opera & Firefox) the video player fades in, looks like it's about to buffer - and then nothing happens.

Am I missing something really obvious here that causes the player, or my code to be incompatible with other browsers?

If anyone can help it'd be very much appreciated & there's a good few free films in there if someone manages to come up with the answer. )

Thanks!

Hey guys

I have this website where I have the txt on the right in alphatransparent pngs. On my computer it works fine in FireFox browser, but when opening in my IE7, it has some crappy lines in the top!?

All of this is not shown locally, so when I compile everything and run the website there's nothing wrong!?

Can somebody explain why this is happening!?

Flash Doesn't Work Properly In IE 6/7 But Fine In FireFox
I just started having issues with flash displaying in IE. For example, I know there is a swf on the page but nothing visual shows up. If I right-click on the swf I get a greyed out "movie not loaded" and About Flash Player. I've tried the uninstall tool several times, reinstalled, even reinstalled version 7, then 8 and then 9. Then (as I was going to do anyway) upgraded IE to ver 7 and still the same problem. No problem with FireFox, though. It's driving me crazy. Any ideas? Some kind of plug-in folder problem?

FWIW - I have Studio 8 with Flash 8 Pro, etc. I also have Studio MX still installed. Also, I noticed that some programs, like Quickbooks and a few others, seem to use flashplayer 6. Not sure if that's screwing me up suddenly.

Thanks for any ideas you can throw my way!

Mp3 Flash Player Loads Fine In Firefox, Takes 15 Sec In IE - Help
Hi,

We have 57 different mp3 flash players on our page that use the below code, they all work fine and all load in 2-3 seconds in Firefox.

Can be seen here on a test page: www.lacantinaproductions.com/catalogue_new.htm

In IE, 57 different instances of the code had to be created in order for the flash players to even appear. So the code was adapted in the following way (see "1") for each instance:



<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>

<div id="flashPlayer1">
This text will be replaced by the flash music player.
</div>

<script type="text/javascript">
var so1= new SWFObject("playerMini.swf", "mymovie", "75", "30", "7", "#FFFFFF");
so1.addVariable("autoPlay", "no");
so1.addVariable("soundPath", "song.mp3");
so1.write("flashPlayer1");
</script>



Problem is that it takes the page at least 15 seconds to load in IE, when it loads in 3 in Firefox

Is there anyway to fix this issue? Why does it happen? Agree that the page in question is not coded in the neatest of ways (working on that), but it still loads fine in Firefox and therefore should work in IE as well?

Thank you for your help

Internet Explorer's Stupid Safety Box HELP
hey guys,
does anyone know how to get rid of internet explorer's safety mechanism that puts a box over all flash elements and you have to click on it for it to do anything? i took a look at myspace for example, and their flash ads just come up without a need to "click to activate"... the code is just way over my head, but looks like they use javascript. i dont know if that has anything to do with this, but if anyone can help me, that would be awesome!!

thanks guys,
kevin

Flash Player Not Working Properly In IE But Works Fine In FireFox
Flash player has worked fine on my Dell notebook (Vista) until a couple days ago when I had to do a System Restore due to some error in loading. After the system restore, flash doesn't update itself on the sites I most often visit (MLB.com). Each major league baseball team site has a page where you can watch the virtual game (gameday) that shows each pitch, at bat, play, etc. Since my system restore, the page just stays on that point in the game (in a sense) the moment you click to open it up.

I have tried to uninstall and install etc, to no avail. Firefox works fine. Any ideas?
