Hi, I'm trying to develop an app with an embedded flash swf, and I'm trying to use the ExternalInterface.call function from within the swf to access a javascript function in the xml file. The js function should pop up an alert message and return a string to the swf, but does neither. I don't get any error message; I just don't get either the alert message or the string returned. Is there some kind of a parameter that needs to be set to use ExternalInterface? I've attached the code used below. Thanks in advance for any help!
I apologize if this question has come up before. I searched, but couldn't find something similar. xml file : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Module> <ModulePrefs title="Basic Game Simulator Test!"> <Require feature="opensocial-0.7"/> <Require feature="flash" /> <Require feature="views" /> </ModulePrefs> <Content type="html"> <![CDATA[ <script type="text/javascript"> var div = document.getElementById('profile_view'); var div_status = document.getElementbyId('status_div'); function getOwnerData() { var req = opensocial.newDataRequest(); req.add(req.newFetchPersonRequest('OWNER'), 'owner'); req.send(onLoadOwner); } function onLoadOwner(data) { var owner = data.get('owner').getData(); var flashvars = "userName="+owner.getDisplayName(); var flashAppId = "OpenSocial"; var swfURL = "http://xxx.com/Game_Simulator.swf"; swfURL = swfURL + "?" + flashvars; document.getElementById('profile_view').innerHTML = "Called Flash correctly"; gadgets.flash.embedFlash(swfURL, "flashcontainer", {swf_version: 8, id: flashAppId, width: 550, height: 400, allowScriptAccess: "always" }); } //function called from the swf function sendOrkutUpdate(win_score, loss_score) { document.getElementById('profile_view').innerHTML = ''+win_score; alert("JS function called"); return "sendOrkutUpdate reached"; } function init() { getOwnerData(); } </script> <script> gadgets.util.registerOnLoadHandler(init); </script> <div id="flashcontainer" style="text-align: center;" width="550" height="400" allowScriptAccess: "always"></div> <div id="profile_view"></div> <div id="status_div"></div> ]]> </Content> </Module> Code in swf : on (release) { import flash.external.*; var EIcall = "default value"; win_holder.text = ExternalInterface.available; try { EIcall = ExternalInterface.call("sendOrkutUpdate", _root.win_holder.text, _root.loss_holder.text); } catch (err:Error) { status_holder.text = "Call to JS failed" ; } status_holder.text = EIcall ; } --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Orkut Developer Forum" group.
