Strange Code Appears In I Explorer Address Bar.



I have the following code which I shamelessly cut and pasted into a swf file (I want it to open an html window of desired size, etc.):

here is the code:
on (release) {
getURL ("javascript:window.open('http://www.yourdomain.com/yourpage.html','windowName','width=400,height=160, top=0,left=0,toolbar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no ,menubar=no,status=no,directories=no,location=no') ; void(0);");
}

When I click the button I get:

javascript:window.open('http://www.yourdomain.com/yourpage.html'
in the address bar.

Why?

Chris :-)

Anyone Know Why Javascript Appears On Browser Address Bar?
I'm using getURL("javascript:someFunction()");

occasionally, clients are seeing the javascript call appear on the url line (address) and the browser open to a blank page. In other words getURL() actually tried to get a URL rather than executing the Javascript. I think this is more a browser issue, than Flash, but has anyone seen this?

Anyone know why it might happen?
thanks

No Explorer Task Bar, Address Bar Or Buttons
Can anyone please tell me how to create a movie that is played in explorer without showing the Explorer task bar, address bar and buttons (i.e. Back, Forward, Stop, Refresh, Home, etc.)? Also, How can I prevent the user from resizing the window? Finally, how can I make the movie autoplay if I put it on a CD?

Timeline Controlled By Explorer Address?
Hi!

I've got a question for all of you FLASH-masters out there.

I'm currently working on a website, based on ASP and a database. It loads the content on the page from a database.

Now to the problem. I've got a flash menu/image viewer at the top of the page. ( ex. When I klick on "About" the menu/movie clip shows an "About" image). The problem is that the website is based on only ONE page (default.asp) So, whenever I klick on a link, let's say "About" the page reloads and the About page is shown, BUT! the flash menu/movie is reloaded and moves back to the start of the timeline ( In this case the "welcome" image).

My question is: Is there a way to tell what part of the movie clip to be shown based on the explorer address, or is there another way around this problem?

I don't want to use frames on my website because then the scroller is "miss placed".

I hope I have explaind my problem fairly well, so you all can understan what the h*ll I'm talking about.

Thank you!

Strange Behavior In Internet Explorer

Hi,
I have a strange problem with a XML powered multi-language menu.

The language code is defined within the flashvars attribute and using this VAR a XML file is used to build the menu.

The problem is that it works perfect in Firefox but in IE only the default language (Dutch) will show up:

Strange:1 Firefox Vs. Internet Explorer About Input Text Issue
After a long break, hi everyone,

Here's the case:

1-We have a full flash site hosted on a php+asp mixed web server.
2-Site is in English and also in Turkish.
3-We have a mail form on "Contact" page.
4-We have 5 input texts which are all has these attributes:
Arial Tur (Exists in Turkish XP SP2 PRO's as default)
Render Text as Html=checked,
Character Embedding=Basic Latin + Latin 1 + Latin Extended A
5-We have a "Send" button, has action:
loadVariables("phpmailer/iletisim.php", this, "POST");
6-We have a html index, published within Flash CS3, beginning with:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<head>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
7-IExplorer:7.0.5730.13, Firefox:2.0.0.10,Flash:CS^(Flash9, AS2)


Here are the problems:

1-When i open the file with internet explorer i can not input some Turkish characters, but not all of them. When i copy these characers from notepad and paste, i can see all of them. Firefox has no problem until here.

2-But for both browsers when i send the form with turkish characters, i get a messed up mail with unusual characters. I checked out the sendmail.php (a generic name) file, it mails turkish characters just fine.

Thanks a lot.
See you on the next chapter of "Strange Things Happening to me ,I Hope I'm not Alone."

URL Address In Data Code
I have added an action script to my combobox that when an item is selected, text reads in dynamic text fields. Everything works great at this point. One of my text fields would load an email address for a sales representative. I would like this text to be a hyperlink to the sales person's email address. I would have to do this in the actionscript, but I have no clue how to do this.
My actionscript reads as follows:
{label:"Alabama", data:{name:'David Bailey', phone:'706-276-7171', region:'Northwest Region', address1:'216 Sailor Dr., Suite 221', address2:'Ellijay, GA 30540', email:'davidb@cdg.ws'}},
In bold is where I would like the "mailto" command.
Any ideas? I would appreciate any help possible. I have attached the fla file.

Actionscript Help & Code For Image In Web Address
Hello All! I have two questions!
1. Can someone please tell me what script I need to my html page to have my logo appear in the web address window in a browser?

2. I am new to flash (obviously) I just started working on the navigation for a flash site. The link is provided below. When you click on the navigation more navigation for that topic slides on. Problem is that it stays on if you go directly off the button to you right. But if you roll over another button it disappears. What should I add to my actionscripting to make it remain on until another button is click? I don't want it to change if you simply rollover another button.

I have a Flash file that is importing an XML file. The XML file has an info field that has e-mail addresses in it. I am trying to convert the e-mail addresses to HTML in the Actionscript.

Internet Explorer Hates Me... Well... My Code...
And I (and my code) hate it...

I am not sure if it is a problem with the flash, or with the html, but it's pissing me off...

I've uploaded the project to: http://www.whatadewitt.com/coolriot/menubar.html

(You can ignore the "Expand" and "Collapse", they're just things I was using to test my javascript functions)

If you go there in Firefox, the thing does as it is supposed to... in IE, the damned thing won't load! I mean, look, I know that it's hard to believe that something isn't working in IE, let's just calm down, we can give them this one foul up (if in fact it is their fault).

Anybody know why IE hates me so much?

Thanks,

Code Doesn't Work In Explorer...
//... okay, i have a button inside a flash movie that onRelease opens a browser window... i placed this code directly on each button to set that windows attributes is:

on (release) {
Movieclip.prototype.openWin1 = function(url, winName, w, h, toolbar, location, directories, status, menubar, scrollbars, resizable){
getURL("javascript:var myWin1;if (!myWin1 || myWin1.closed){myWin1=window.open('"+url+"', '"+winName+"', '"+"width="+w+", height="+h+", toolbar="+toolbar+", location="+location+", directories="+directories+", status="+status+", menubar="+menubar+", scrollbars="+scrollbars+", resizable="+resizable+", top='+0+', left='+150+'"+"')} else{myWin1.focus();};void(0);"); };

Movie Explorer CS3 Doesn't Display Code
The Movie Explorer in CS3 doesn't behave like Studio8. When selecting an action script node in the Movie Explorer window, it does not take you to the code in the Actions window. If you right click and select 'Go To Location' it takes you one level below the actual clip on the stage instead of inside the clip.

I want the old functionality back. Anyone know how to get the code to show in the Actions pane when an Actions node is selected in the Movie Explorer?

Thanks,

Jeff

Strange Code Problem
Hi,
I've been trying to get a Breakout style game working which has 2 players trying to smash eachothers bricks in a Pong style fashion. I can get one set of bricks working but not two. Can anyone see anything wrong with the code? I'm not very good at Flash so hopefully its something simple.
Thanks


Code:
function enemysetupBricks() {
for (row=1; row<=4; row++) {
for (col=1; col<=10; col++) {
_root.attachMovie("mc_brick", "ebrick_"+row+"_"+col, (row*1000)+(col*100));
eBrick = eval("ebrick_"+row+"_"+col);
eBrick._x = (col*(eBrick._width+5)+ecolpos);
eBrick._y = (row*(eBrick._height+5)+erowpos);
eBrick.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (this.hitTest(ball)) {
ball.dy = -ball.dy;
this.removeMovieClip(this);
playerscore += 100;
enemyscore -= 100;
}
};
}
}
}

function playersetupBricks() {
for (prow=1; prow<=4; prow++) {
for (pcol=1; pcol<=10; pcol++) {
_root.attachMovie("mc_brick", "pbrick_"+prow+"_"+pcol, (prow*1000)+(pcol*100));
pBrick = eval("pbrick_"+prow+"_"+pcol);
pBrick._x = (pcol*(pBrick._width+1)+pcolpos);
pBrick._y = (prow*(pBrick._height+1)+prowpos);
pBrick.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (this.hitTest(ball)) {
ball.dy = -ball.dy;
this.removeMovieClip(this);
playerscore -= 100;
enemyscore += 100;
}
};
}
}

Strange AttachMovie Code
Hi, I came across this piece of code in a project someone else had done, and I'm confused over the following line (highlighted in blue):


Code:
import Popup;

class PopupHolder extends MovieClip {

function PopupHolder {}

public function createPopup():Void {
var newPopup:Popup = Popup(this.attachMovie("popup_mc", "new_popup_mc", 1));
newPopup.init(popupText, x, y);
}
}
What is going on here? 'Popup' is just a simple class extending MovieClip, and has no constructor that allows parameters to be passed, which is what seems to be happening in that code.

Strange thing is, if I replace the above line with var newPopup = this.attachMovie("popup_mc", "new_popup_mc", 1); it still works! So what am I missing about the original code?

A Strange Size Issue In My Code.
I can't seem to locate the problem. I declare the width of my picture to be 100 but it seems to end up 121 for no reason I can see. It's driving me crazy. My mask is width 100 and the pictures are definetly not that size. Can someone see if I have a code problem I'm not seeing? :

function thumbnails_fn(k, total) {
thumbnail_mc.createEmptyMovieClip("t"+k, thumbnail_mc.getNextHighestDepth());
tlistener = new Object();
tlistener.onLoadInit = function(target_mc) {
oldwidth = target_mc._width;
target_mc._width = 100; <----------------------------Pretty clear.
target_mc._height = Math.round((target_mc._width/oldwidth)*target_mc._height);
target_mc._y = oldy;
oldy = target_mc._y+target_mc._height+2;
target_mc.pictureValue = k;
bg_mc._height = thumbnail_mc._height+2;
bg_mc._width = thumbnail_mc._width+3;
target_mc.onRelease = function() {
if (target_mc._width == 300) {
this.shrinkimage(target_mc, total);
} else {
this.expandimage(target_mc, total);
}
};
target_mc.onRollOver = function() {
this._alpha = 75;
};
target_mc.onRollOut = function() {
this._alpha = 100;
};
};
image_mcl = new MovieClipLoader();
image_mcl.addListener(tlistener);
image_mcl.loadClip(thumbnails[k], "thumbnail_mc.t"+k);
}

Cool Graphics, But Strange Effect (w/code)
First the good news: do a simple copy-paste on the following code into a new FLA and you'll be rewarded with a cool screen effect:


Code:
import flash.display.Stage;
import flash.display.StageAlign;
import flash.display.StageScaleMode;
import flash.geom.Rectangle;
import flash.geom.Point;
import flash.display.Bitmap;
import flash.display.BitmapData;
import flash.events.Event;

// Setup Stage -------------------------------------------------------------------
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, onEnterFrame);

// Declare some placeholders: ----------------------------------------------------
var p1=0,p2=0,p3=0,p4=0,p5=0;
var s1=0,s2=0,s3=0,s4=0,s5=0;
var rect:Rectangle = new Rectangle(0, 0, 200, 200);
var pt:Point = new Point(0, 0);

// Make a few boxes. Final desired effect is to blend first box on top of
// second box in interesting patterns:
var bmdBlue:BitmapData = new BitmapData(200, 200, true, 0xFF000058);
var bmdGreen:BitmapData = new BitmapData(200, 200, true, 0xFF003E46);
var bmdTarget:BitmapData = new BitmapData(200, 200, false, 0x00FF0000);

// These don't need to show:
//var bmBlue:Bitmap = new Bitmap(bmdBlue);
//this.addChild(bmBlue);
//var bmGreen:Bitmap = new Bitmap(bmdGreen);
//this.addChild(bmGreen);

var bmTarget:Bitmap = new Bitmap(bmdTarget);
this.addChild(bmTarget);

// Setup Perlin Noise vars: ------------------------------------------------------
var bmdPerlin:BitmapData = new BitmapData(200, 200, true, 0xFFFF0000);
var baseX:Number = 200;
var baseY:Number = 200;
var numOctaves:uint = 4;
var randomSeed:int = Math.floor(Math.random() * 100);
var stitch:Boolean = true;
var fractalNoise:Boolean = true;
var channelOptions:uint = BitmapDataChannel.RED;//BitmapDataChannel.ALPHA | BitmapDataChannel.BLUE| BitmapDataChannel.RED| BitmapDataChannel.GREEN;
var grayScale :Boolean = false;
var offsets :Array = null;
var myBitmap:Bitmap = new Bitmap(bmdPerlin);
// Display on stage (comment out to hide)
//var bmPerlin= addChild(new Bitmap(bmdPerlin));
//bmPerlin.width = stage.stageWidth;
//bmPerlin.height = stage.stageHeight;



function onEnterFrame(e:Event):void {

// Some nice wavey sine funtions:
s1+=.1;s2+=.04;s3+=.2;s4+=.005;
p1 += 1 * Math.random() * Math.sin(s1);p2 += 1 * Math.cos(s1);p3 += 2 * Math.sin(s2);p4 += 1 * Math.cos(s2); p1+=5;
offsets=[new Point(p1,p2),new Point(p3,p4),new Point(p1,p3),new Point(p2,p4)];

// Tweak the Perlin noise in a nice lava-lamp-like manner:
bmdPerlin.perlinNoise(baseX, baseY, numOctaves, randomSeed, stitch, fractalNoise, channelOptions, grayScale, offsets);

// Apply Perlin noise to the Blue as an Alpha channel:
bmdBlue.copyChannel(bmdPerlin, rect, pt, BitmapDataChannel.RED , BitmapDataChannel.ALPHA);

// Wipe Target:
bmdTarget.fillRect(rect, 0x000000);

// Merge Blue on top of Green, inside of Target:
bmdTarget.copyPixels(bmdGreen, rect, pt);
bmdTarget.copyPixels(bmdBlue, rect, pt, bmdBlue, pt, false);

// PROBLEM: Instead of making a wavelike effect, it looks more like
// fog going over an ever-increasing field of blue artifacts.
// Although cool, it's not the effect I want. I don't understand
// why this artifacting is happening, especially since I'm explicitly
// wiping the target BMD to black, then wiping solid green on top of that!

// Finall resize to fit the entire stage:
bmTarget.width = stage.stageWidth;
bmTarget.height = stage.stageHeight;
}
Now the problem: It's not supposed to look like that! As it runs, there's this blue artifacting that gets increasingly worse as the movie runs. The effect is supposed to be one of swirling Blue and Green fog (ie smooth, constant moton); currently it's more like Green fog over blue sand (ie green fog moves, but artifacting makes blue look like it's fixed in place).

I'm copying two fresh BitmapDatas, one solid green, another blue with a randomized alpha channel, onto a new BitmapData, and displaying the results, yet it's acting more like repetitive pasting rather than replacing.

My question: What am I doing wrong? I want the artifacting to go away!

Strange Problem With This Pause Frame Code. Flush Memory ?
I have this code in a frame. it pause the frame until its time to go to another frame.

My problem is that if I press a button on the stage that is sending the playhead to another frame in the movie, it is remembering the pause code and going back to the frames where the playhead came from. The playhead is not respecting a stop(); in the frame where the playhead is supposed to stop.

The playhead is going to the correct frame, but after a few seconds pause it continues back to where it came from. I think I need some actionscript to sort of flush the memory for the pause code when i click the button that is sending me away to another place in the movie.

Here is the pause code which is causing the trouble:

stop();
function timer() {
clearInterval(myTimer);
gotoAndStop(myFrame);
}
myTimer = setInterval(timer, 9000);
myFrame=("screensaver2");

How Do I Make A Little Picture Come Up Next To The Address In The Address Bar?

Internet Explorer And Flash - Freakin Explorer Bar
Okay, I'm pretty new at with Flash, and the whole actionscript/xml/xhtml stuff. When I upload my .swf to the web, I always get that explorer bar dropping bombs everytime I open the page. And I get it on just about every computer. Is there a special embed tag or some trick I'm missing to make that thing go away. Also, why do some sites automatically focus and others not. How do I do that?

Strange Strange For Loop Problem
i have the following for loop within a private constructor in a class:


PHP Code:



        // Place season choice buttons        for (i = 1; i <= numSeasons; i++) {            thisSeason = setSeasonVar["Season"+i];            var mcName:String = "MC_seasonChoice"+i;            var depthToUse:Number = 1001+i;            var seasonChoiceXPos:Number = 100 + (i*60);                        // Add season choice            seasonNavHolder.attachMovie("MC_seasonChoice", mcName, depthToUse, {_x:seasonChoiceXPos, _y:67, txt_seasonChoice:thisSeason});                        // Give season choice button actions            seasonNavHolder[mcName].onPress = function():Void {                trace(thisSeason);            }        } 




everything works except the "trace(thisSeason)" line of the script. Here, it seems that the script is no longer in the for loop. Each onPress event traces the last value of the array.. the last value to be returned from the query and placed into the loadVars object...

is this a scope thing?

Preloader Bar Only Appears At 95%

Preloader, Appears 80% In? HELP ?
Lo guy's & Dolls, I am using some preloaders in a flash site, and i cannot work out why it is trying to load 80% of the second scene before it shows the preloader bar, there is nothing in with the preloader, i.e. something it would have to load first.

The preloader won't show say at 3% or 10% even, but waits until 80% in and then shows itself running along.

Problem is the client is saying well we can't see whats happening..which is right.

I have been over it aand over it and over it. had anyone come across this prob, and could perhaps give me some help??

Preloader Bar Appears Only After 50%
Hi,

I'm using Flash MX 2004.

I have several .swf files which I preload before playing. The preloader does work, but does not show up until after 50% or so are loaded. I can't figure out why.

Here is the as on the first frame of each .swf:

bytes_loaded = Math.round(this.getBytesLoaded());
bytes_total = Math.round(this.getBytesTotal());
getPercent = bytes_loaded/bytes_total;
this.loadBar._width = getPercent*100;
this.loadText = Math.round(getPercent*100)+"%";
if (bytes_loaded == bytes_total) {
this.gotoAndPlay(3);

And here you can see the preloader:
Preloader Check

P.S: Let intro play through, then click on one of the above buttons to check preloading. After clicking, preloader bar appeares after a few seconds underneath the "Klimen Car Design"-logo. Why does it show up only after about 50% are loaded? Appreciate your help!

Thanks 4 help in advance.

Disable MC's Once New MC Appears Above Them
Hi,
I've got several MC's which some of them are buttons.
Then I am using another MC on top of all them to display some data (like an internal pop up window). The question is simple. Once I have this pop up MC displayed I need the rest MC's disabled and vise versa.

The way I can achieve this is to use
mc01.enabled = false;
mc02.enabled = false;
mc03.enabled = false;
.....etc.

Is there any other way to do the trick?

thanks

Why Itīs Only Appears 9 Images
Another problem.
I have a project of slideshow of images, it this with some defects, example, I have 10 pulled images being, but in the first time that I bring up to date one f5 in the HTML or Ctrl+enter in the flash, it alone he shows to 9 images it to me does not show the second image, and he finishes it is blank, does not appear nothing, but if I to leave it twirling, in the second time it shows the second image but he finishes it continues blank, acontence always, exactly if in param of the HTML I to only place 3 images, happens the same thing, follows the action.

imagem = new Array (_root.i1, _root.i2, _root.i3, _root.i4, _root.i5, _root.i6, _root.i7, _root.i8, _root.i9, _root.i10);
var QtdImagens = 0;
while (QtdImagens<10 && imagem[QtdImagens] != null)
{
QtdImagens++;
}
ImagemAtual = 0;
loadMovie (ExtDef (imagem[ImagemAtual]), "principal_mc");
function someName ()
{
ImagemAtual == QtdImagens ? ImagemAtual=0 : ImagemAtual++;
loadMovie (ExtDef (imagem[ImagemAtual]), "principal_mc");
}
var ImagemAtual = 0;
ImagemAtual = setInterval (someName, 6000);
stop ();
function ExtDef (s)
{
if (s.indexOf ('.') == -1)
{
return s+'.jpg';

Site Appears Blank On Web? Help
ok,
im new at this so bare with me. im sure there is an easy solution to this. my site works fine when testing it through flash but when i load it through my ftp program it appears blank or transparent on the web. ive stripped the site down but i have no clue whats going on so someone please give me a hand.

Preloader Percent Bar Only Appears At 95%
The percentage preloader i'm using only appears when it's 95% loaded.

I thought that it had to do with exporting the movie bottom/up and changed it to top/down...
still it didn't worked.

ANy ideas?

thnx

Preloader Appears Too Late
I have a Standard Preloader that i downloaded on this site, with bar+percents.
I put the preloader into the first frame of my scene,
my movie.swf on frame 2.
THE PROBLEM IS the preloader appears late, the bar is at 60% finished...
It works but it seems that the movie preloads 60% BEFORE go to frame 1 where my preloader is.

I hope its clear, sorry 4 my english.

Help me and THX.

?Choose What Appears In The Next Scene?
In scene 1, I have 10 check boxes (From the Flash MX components). In scene
2 I have a list of 10 independent lines of text.

How can I link the check boxes in scene 1, to the 10 items on scene 2, so
which ever checkboxes you select will deterimine which of the 10 items
appear in scene2?

Preloader Appears Very Late.
Okay, I doing this flash..about 1 MB and after I complete the scenes, I start creating the preloader.

The preloader works fine on testing but problems appear after I upload it.

The movie went blank for about a min and then it appears with the percentage being already 64% and then continues way up to 100%. I'm puzzle about what's taking the preloader so long go appear...

I thought at first that maybe My preloader BG's file size is too big so I got rid of it but it's no use. My preloader's only 4 frames with 5 layers.....all words and a small button.

Anyone tell me wat's wrong?

Thanks.........

Help Nothing Appears In The Preload Sequence
help!!!!

i have never encountered this problem before. when i test my swf file on my server, it comes up blank. it is still downloading in the stat bar. when the swf file is downloaded, then everything is fine.

i have checked everything from the frame script to just throwing out the preload scene.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

When The Animation Appears Really Slow...
I'm trying to make a flash site. the frame rate is 22-24 and when I test the movie on the hard drive the animiation is swift, but on the net, it became really really slow. I'm thinking maybe its because I'm using too many masks and images. Could that be why?? any suggestions? TIA

Movie Appears Smaller
When my movie is published the entire site appears smaller than when I've created it and I don't know why. Does anyone know why this happens? The fonts, etc are barely legible but in the .fla everything is normal.

Suggestions?

Preloader Appears After About 50%loaded
I have a main movie with a working preloader. on scene 3 (where my site is), i have a swf file that is loaded dynamically when it enters frame 1 (only 1 frame total in scene3). there is also a preloader in the first scene of the swf file that is being loaded.

the problem is, this causes the preloaders to only appear only after about 50% has already loaded.

i know i have read somewhere about this problem, but i can't seem to figure out how to solve it.

thanks for your help
