Re: [flexcoders] Re: navigateToURL

[Oleg Sivokon]

FileReference.save availability depends on the player version, the version
of the SDK or Flex Builder doesn't affect that.
Regarding JavaScript, I'd go for an iframe, which would load try to navigate
to the URL to the file you want to load and then a script in the parent
document that would check on an interval what happened to the iframe. I
think that the solutions is tricky / complex to post the code, and I'm not
sure which options are exactly available across different browsers.

[flexcoders] Re: navigateToURL

[Goutham]

Hi,

thanks for your reply.
I am using flex 3, so filereference.save is not available
It would be great if you can provide any example using the script to 
communicate with flex

thanks,
Goutham

".creating a custom component and repeating that" yes, yes, yes.   Pass in
the entire currentItem and store it in a public variable, and then you will
be able to code the repeated item cleanly and clearly.  I'd suggest having
the component dispatch an event on click, then listen for that in the
repeater's parent.  Use event.target.itemData(or whatever you named the
public var) to get the text of the link and then build the full argument to
navigateToeURL.

[flexcoders] Re: navigateToURL to new TAB rather than new WINDOW

[valdhor]

Unfortunately, that is a user preference for the browser. There is no way, 
AFAIK, that a developer can control this.

In my case, with Firefox 3.0.10, I have turned on the preference to open new 
pages in a tab (Tools->Options->Tabs) so my navigateToURL opens in a new tab.

[flexcoders] Re: navigateToURL and "_self" - Works locally, not when swf is on remote server

[uclamerrick]

Thank you for helping.

What I meant was that when I click the image nothing happens.

Also, I was not clear with the local vs remote - my swf file can be
embedded much like youtube, vimeo etc... 

When the swf file is generated from the code below and still on my
laptop clicking the image takes me to the desired URL. 

But then pretend I work at Youtube, and when I export the swf to a
youtube server and someone else embeds the swf file on a page on
xyzdomain.com, clicking the image does not work.

I tried switching this to a button to make sure it was not an image
thing, I got the same result.

The results I describe were on Firefox and Safari on a mac, I have to
install windows on a virtual machine to test that.

Works for me:


http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";
layout="absolute">
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 


SWF, HTML file etc on the remote server.

What do you mean when you say "does not work"? Do you get an error
message?
You click the image and nothing happens? Something else?

[flexcoders] Re: navigateToURL & request.data & connection problem

[valdhor]

Yes - it worked for me.

Have you checked the actual data sent with something like
Charles(http://www.charlesproxy.com)? What is being sent?

BTW. I think Charles is the best. I use it almost every day to track
down network problems that I have. It is the only debugging proxy that
has both AMF support and works cross platform. Best $50 I ever spent.

Hi Steve,

I still did not get rid of %5F... Did it worked for you?

[flexcoders] Re: navigateToURL & request.data & connection problem

[assaia]

Thank you a lot Steve, that's great!
It still is not working, but a least now I know that the error is not in the 
code anymore...
I think the error is the domain name trying to access the Perl script.
So I'll transfer it to the correct server and then try again. Thanks a lot!

[flexcoders] Re: navigateToURL & request.data & connection problem

[valdhor]

These two lines:

var array:Array = new Array(new URLRequestHeader("Content-Type",
"text/html"));
request.contentType = array.toString();

send a very strange request to the server:

Second%5FPhone%5FNumber=0&Account=00&Password=password

Removing the two lines send a proper POST request.

There is nothing wrong with your Flex code. The "Internal Server
Error" response is coming from the Perl script due to the strange request.

BTW. I figured this out using Charles (http://www.charlesproxy.com).

Re: [flexcoders] Re: navigateToURL

[Michael Wills]

I've used Xampp before for many different things and I've never had any 
special requirements. It's odd. I even pasted your sample code in the 
online flex compiler at try.flex.org and it worked fine there.


Does your bin/ directory or FlashSite2 directory have any permissions 
issues?

Yes, it works and the Adobe link worked. Not sure how Flex
Builder/xampp/Windows wants to see the contructed URL though it
seems like I have tried all options.

Forward slashes/backward\with this directory without?

I can go to file in browser.

[flexcoders] Re: navigateToURL bind to datagrid selecteditem

[Doug Lowder]

I would do this in a function rather than in mxml.

 function doNavigate( ) : void {
 navigateToURL(new
URLRequest("http://www.mydomain.com/synapse/data/7117/documents/"; +
drivergrid.selectedItem.uploadedfile, "Download"));
 }

...

Weird.  I had to throw in some callLaters.  I didn't know that's how navigateToURL() works.

[flexcoders] Re: navigateToURL with multiple links

[Chris Waguespack]

I don't know if this is the best way to do this, but this seems to work:

private function OpenListings():void{
 var listingData:Array=/*an array of links*/;
 ExternalInterface.call("openURLs",listingData);
}

And a function in Javascript in the wrapper:

function openURLs(urls){
for(i=0;i wrote:

[Chris Waguespack]

This does not work either.  In fact, having two navigateToURL requests
in the same function only triggers the last one.  Anyone know of a way
around this?

Thanks,
Chris

Try iterating through the array elements:

private function OpenListings():void{
var listingData:Array=/*an array of links*/;
for (var i = 0; i < listingData.length; i++){
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(listingData[i]),'_blank');
}
