[Flashcoders] Keyboard Shortcuts ?????? Help

2007-02-16 Thread Mark Wallis

I am having major trouble with implementing keyboard shortcuts for my
movie. Everything is fine in firefox if the movie has focus it takes
precedence over the browser shortcuts. IE7 is a different story. It
takes complete keyboard control. I found only 2/3 keys  i could use
which were not used by IE. My movie is quite a complex beast and
Keyboard shortcuts are an essential part of it. I need to make the
functionality of the movie available to those without a mouse. There
surely is a way around this  Anyone got any ideas this has been
driving me mad for 3 days now i cant seem to find any info on the
subject anywhere ...

[Flashcoders] Major problem with sendAndLoad and movie focus

2007-02-13 Thread Mark Wallis

Hi all,

I am really in a bind with regards providing keyboard shortcuts within
my flash movie.
Problem seems to be the application polls a database every couple of
seconds for status information.
I use the xml sendAndLoad function.
Problem is that if i shortcut to a component ((i.e) Ctrl + t , gives
focus to the text field )
the focus is immediately lost as soon as the onLoad event fires.
This is giving me nightmares as its now impossible to use the app via
the keyboard when polling
the db thus making the app inaccessible. Any advice on this would be
very much appreciated.
