Flash :: Mc Won´t Scale With Flash 6 Plugin For Ie5

Javascript Popup To Install Flash Plugin, But Plugin Is Already Installed..
I have plugin checker code in place, checking for Plugin 9. On a co workers computer at home, she is prompted to download the Flash plugin via a javascript alert window that says "Install" or "Don't Install". After doing the install, it continues to happen over and over. This ONLY happens with Flash Plugin 9. I am about to revert back to Actionscript 2.0 for this application and use Flash Plugin 8 to see if that fixes it. Has anyone run into this before and does anyone have any resolution? If more info is needed let me know I'll be happy to provide.. Thanks

Detect Flash Plugin, If No Plugin --redirect To Non-flash Site (javascript)
Wanting to know how to redirect a user to another site (non-flash) if they do not have the flash plugin installed on their computer.

--all of this using javascript on the main login-page

if no flash installed on computer, redirect to---non_flash.htm
if flash is detected then redirect to--flash.htm

reason being, some of the people that are using my web apps are old and don;t feel as if they should have to download something on their computer to run my software.
stupid, i know---

Thanks in advance

Scale Movieclip - It Works But The Scale Handle Wont Be Dragged Correctly
hi,

because I need to get a movieclip dynamically scaled I have the following script. But the problem is that the handle wont stay at the right bottom corner. I think it has to do something with the math function but I dont know exactly what.

ActionScript Code:
attachMovie("Pic", "thePic", 1);

thePic.onEnterFrame = function(){
this._width = this._height = container.handle._y+25;
}

scrollArea = Math.sqrt(Math.pow(thePic._height,2) + Math.pow(thePic._width,2));
createEmptyMovieClip("container",2);
container._x = 50;
container._y = 50;
container._rotation = -45;
container.attachMovie("scale_handle", "handle", 2, {_y:scrollArea});
container.handle._alpha = 0;

// all mouseactions of the handle
container.handle.onPress = function(){
this.startDrag("true",0,0,1,scrollArea);
trace(scrollArea);
trace(thePic._height);
}

container.handle.onMouseUp = function(){
this.stopDrag();
container.handle._alpha = 100;
}

container.handle.onRollOver = function(){
container.handle._alpha = 100;
}

container.handle.onRollOut = function(){
container.handle._alpha = 0;
}

// all mouseactions of the picture

thePic.onPress = function(){
_root.startDrag();
}

thePic.onRelease = function(){
stopDrag();
container.handle._alpha = 100;
}

thePic.onRollOver = function(){
container.handle._alpha = 100;
}

thePic.onRollOut = function(){
container.handle._alpha = 0;
}
maybe you could help me.

thanks in advance, ckey

Flash Plugin BUG?
Hi all,

one of my sites works great in IE on Windows, but seems to crash on Netscape Win, Netscape and IE Mac. Looks like a plugin bug. Activex works fine.

Here's the url:

http://www.melindasmithstudio.com

Go to the gallery section (either by clicking on a picture on the right in the home page or by selecting "gallery").

Wait a few seconds for all the thumbnails to load. Then select a painting in the bottom left bar. In IE (windows), it will load a new painting in the main pane. In any other platform/browser, it will probably reload the entire movie and send you back to the home page. Then if you go back to gallery, weird things happen (try to load a painting and take a look at the navigator/zoom pane).

First of all, can you guys reproduce the error or am I crazy?

Secondly, is this a know plug-in vs activex issue?? I *KNOW* my code is clean. It's working just fine in IE.

I thought Flash was the ultimate remedy to cross-platform debugging. Apparently not.

Macromedia, Flashkit gurus, any input?

Thanks guys,

Stephane

Flash Plugin
on my site http://www.urbanracing.tk i have a menu and i use flash buttons in it. when any user goes onto my site they are asked to download the flash plugin and thats fine, but i have 8 buttons on the menu and it wants to install the plugin for every button and as well as that it also wants to restart the computer after each button loads, also another strange thing is i have other flash buttons my site they dont have the same problem

Flash Plugin
I've seen either a tutorial or thread on one of the forums which outlined a neat trick - place an image instead of a swf if the user doesn't have the correct flash plugin.
I use MX and I realise that it automatically checks for the correct plugin, but I'd like to know if placing an image instead is an option.
I have searched the tutorials and cannot find anything... I'm sure I didn't imagine this, can anyone shed any light on the subject???

What Flash Plugin Came With IE 5.5
Hello-
I'm doing some flash work for a client and when I asked them what version SWF I should deliver, they said "whatever shipped with IE 5.5 (for PC)"

Does anyone know what version plugin IE 5.5 shipped with - or does it depend on what build of IE 5.5 you're talking about?

Thanks-

Or even make it pop up in a higher level of the flash page using load movie. Or does that only work on .swfs and .jpgs?

THANKS much!!!!

Get Around A Flash Plugin?
I am okay using flash, but I am new at trying to integrate it with other programs. If I wanted to have a Flash Website (swf) loaded with a Dreamweaver HTML site but I need to create a preloader page that informs the user that they must download a flash plugin.

The problem is allowing users to see the webpage with or without a flash plugin, but if we are using flash, then that is impossible. So I am trying to create a page that warns the user first.

Any suggestions, help is greatly appreciated

I'm new to flash, so let me know if this is at all possible.

Flash 6 Plugin Problem
Hi, one of my users has reported the following problem, have any of you guys sean or heard of it, or its solution?

Basically if flash 5 is installed on explorer 5 (my situation) then
flash 6 may not install, but will still give the successful installation
screen on the macromedia site, so you believe you do have it. To get rid
of this problem you need to delete various obscure files, then install
flash 4 to get rid of a setting in flash 5 which says never install
flash activex again, then uninstall flash 4 and install flash 6. 2 hrs
later and it is working fine!

Flash MX Plugin Detection
Is there a piece of code done in Javascript that will detect the Flash MX plugin?

It seems that every piece of code I go through has some stipulation on it. Won't work in IE4.5 for Mac and blah blah blah. That is beyond irritating.

I just want to know plain and simple, can I do it with Javascript? Can anyone give out some resources for this? Thanks.

Detect Flash 6 Plugin
Hi,

I have created Flash Sequences for my websites and have necassary Pre-Loaders as well.

Thing is this.. in my FlashMX, while Publishing the SWF File, I choose the "Detect for Flash 6" option so that the HTML page generate will detect of the user has Flash 6 plugin or not.. and if not.. download it.

The problem is, in case he doesn't have the Flash 6 Plugin, and the plugin download starts.. there is No activity on the page of indication for the user that something is happening or what is happening..

I have seen on sites where a text comes on the page that says "Our script has detected you dont' have Flash Plugin and is downloading it for you.. " .. and when the download completes, the text goes away and Flash appears. How do you do this? Or, how can you display anything you want while the plugin downloads?

Need help.

Thanks,

Including Flash Plugin On CD
I would like to create a CD that auto launches a web page with a flash menu. My concern is that some may not have the flash plugin installed. Additionally, there may be some users that look at the CD while not being connected to the Internet, so a link to the macromedia site would not suffice.

My question is, can I include on the CD a file that a user can launch that would install the plugin?

In my Program FilesMacromediaFlash MXPlayers there is a file named SAFlashPlayer.exe. Will that install the proper browser plugins?

Flash.dll Plugin For IrfanView
I had installed IrfanView and put the Flash.dll in the plugin menu.
But I still can't see any .swf files via IrfanView.
Those swf files are exported by Flash mx.

Does anyone meet the same problem?

My swf files are all centered aligned to (0,0) position.
So half of the art work will be out of the work area.
Can anyone recommand me a great swf viewer which would do the following things?

1.define an area like 200x200
2.set display original size
3.can display artwork out of the work area

Thanks for all your help.
