Re: [Flashcoders] Firefox popup blocker and flash 9
Turning on popup blocker shouldn't block user initiated clicks that call a
js function to open a new window. Or, popup blocker should allow for a
simple getURL(url, _blank). I'm finding these calls are being blocked
some cases in Firefox on PC's with flash player 9.

This is probably not what your client wants to hear but the question has to
be asked. Isn't Firefox popup blocker there for a reason? When blocking is
active there is a message when a popup is attempted. Users have the choice
to block or not, or to white-list your popups. I recommend allowing them
that choice.

Subject: [Flashcoders] Firefox popup blocker and flash 9
I'm having problems with Fireox blocking my popup windows. I've tried
everything I can think of. It seems to happen on Windows running Firefox but
I can't replicate the issue on all machines I've tested(it works on most
machines but not all).
Here is the class I'm using:
package {
import flash.external.ExternalInterface;
public class URLUtil{
protected static const WINDOW_OPEN_FUNCTION : String =
window.open;
public static function openWindow(url : String, window : String =
_blank, features : String = ) : void {
ExternalInterface.call(WINDOW_OPEN_FUNCTION, url, window,
features);
}
}
}
//being called this way
function recholder1Release(event:MouseEvent) {
URLUtil.openWindow(res1link);
}
Any ideas?
TIA,
-D

[Flashcoders] Flipping Effect...
Hello, Looking to create this effect: http://www.element79.com I've been using AnimationPackage to do programmatic flips and scales But sadly I can't get the smooth effect you get using the timeline. Anybody know of any animation tutorials on this. I'm tempted to do it in After Effects and import into flash.

Re: [Flashcoders] Video object and RTMP...
Thanks for reply. You got me thinking I changed the 2 lines you mentioned connection_nc.connect(rtmp:PATH TO MY HOST); //path to video hosting stream_ns.play(VIDEO NAME); //actual video name (without .flv) Thanks! -Dan On 5/17/06 4:28 PM, Marlon Harrison [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: If I remember right, this is incorrect: connection_nc.connect(null); connection_nc.connect(); should be somethign different whe you're using a straming server. null is only for progessive download-encoded flv's. Also, the ns.play() command for streaming cannot have the .flv at the end. I think your code is for progessive flv playback.

Re: [Flashcoders] .flv plays on mac but not on pc...
Ok, Figured it out. I was copying the demo folder to pc desktop. The paths to .flv's must get wonky. I moved the folder down into c: and it worked. -dan On 3/23/06 12:15 PM, Dan Wade [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Should explain myself better, when I play demo on a pc everything works but the .flvs. -d On 3/23/06 12:10 PM, Dan Wade [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I've built a flash demo which incorporates .flv files and the flvPlayBack component.

[Flashcoders] Flvplayback and cuepoints.
Hello,
I have 2 .avi files which I encoded to .flv using flash 8. Now, all I want
to do is fire an function when each video completes. Sounds easy enough. So
I figure I'll use the complete event that gets fired from the flv
component. This only works on 1 of the .flv's. The other one refuses to fire
this off so I figure I'll use a cuePoint on this one.
So I'm using this code:
var listenerObject:Object = new Object();
listenerObject.cuePoint = function(eventObject:Object):Void {
trace(Cue point name: + eventObject.info.name);
}
vid1PlayBack_cmp.addEventListener(cuePoint, listenerObject);
I first created the cuepoint event inside the movie when I was encoding --
did not work. Then I tried using the component parameter window and setting
up the cuepoint there. Didn't work.
What am I doing wrong
Is there another workaround that I could do. I simply want to start up the
main timeline again when the video ends.
Tia,
-Dan

[Flashcoders] FLVPlayback complete event not firing.
Hello,
I'm using the flvPlayback component. Then adding listener:
vidPlayBack_cmp.complete = function( evt:Object ):Void {
this._visible = false;
}
vidPlayBack_cmp.addEventListener(complete);
Simple enough. But the event never fires. Any ideas/experience with this?
I'm thinking the actual .flv file has something that flash does not like.

[Flashcoders] Attaching combobox inside of class
I get a combobox that looks like a blank textfield using function below:
private function buildCombo() {
//create page combobox used to toggle between pages
var pageToggler_cb = target.createClassObject(mx.controls.ComboBox,
pageSelector, target.getNextHighestDepth());
pageToggler_cb.dataProvider = [hello, there, sailor];
}
}
It seems like the component is currupted but if I do a simple test in
another .fla:
var combo_cb = this.createClassObject(mx.controls.ComboBox, combo, 1);
combo_cb.dataProvider = [hello, there];
It works?
Any ideas?
