Trying to call MM_showHideLayers on container HTML page from Flash

I'm designing a site that is mostly in Flash, but I would
like to show some content by changing the visibility of a layer on
the HTML page that contains the swf file. I have tried
on (press)
{ExternalInterface.call("MM_showHideLayers",'testerbox','show');
and
on (press)
{ExternalInterface.call("MM_showHideLayers('testerbox','','show')");
and I have tried
on (press)
{getURL("javascript:MM_showHideLayers('testerbox','','show')");
My HTML page code is below. Can anyone tell me what I am
doing wrong and point me in the right direction? Can this be done?
Is there a better way to display large amounts of highly formatted,
dynamic content from within Flash without loading a new page or
resorting to a pop-up window? I really want it to look and feel
like it is all part of the same page, and I need more tags than I
can use in a Flash textbox. Thanks in advance :-)

Opening an HTML popup from Flash, not as tab

Hi
I need to open an HTML popup from Flash (using ActionScript in
Flex 4).
Thus far I found a solution, and it does work in Safari - a new
and separate HTML window is popped up (with a new web page).
private function popUpTheHtmlEditor():void {
var url:String = "http://www.adobe.com";
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
try {
    navigateToURL(request, '_blank');
} catch (e:Error) {
    trace("Error occurred!");
But in (my) Firefox (with my settings), when I click on the Flash
(Flex) button, the page is being opened in a new tab.
I need a solution which pops up the HTML page in a new/separate
window, as far as possible regardless of the browser (and browser
settings).
I found an example where a popup is opened from HTML, and it opens a
separate window (a real popup) in my Firefox:
http://www.gtalbot.org/FirefoxSection/Popup/PopupAndFirefox.html
-> "Open a requested popup"
The JavaScript code seems to be:
OpenRequestedPopup(this.href, this.target); return false;
with this function def:
function OpenRequestedPopup(strUrl, strTarget)
    if (WindowObjectReferenceOfRequestedPopup == null || WindowObjectReferenceOfRequestedPopup.closed)
    WindowObjectReferenceOfRequestedPopup = window.open(strUrl, strTarget, "top=" + windowTop + ",left=" + windowLeft + ",width=" + windowWidth + ",height=" + windowHeight + ",menubar,toolbar,location,resizable,scrollbars,status");
    else
    if(WindowObjectReferenceOfRequestedPopup.focus)
      WindowObjectReferenceOfRequestedPopup.focus();
How could I call such code from ActionScript? Should this work through
ExternalInterface? I couldn't even get this to work:
ExternalInterface.call('alert', 'foo');
Should I use swfobject.js for embedding the .swf in the HTML wrapper?
Any other ideas?
The two files are pasted below.
Here's the compiler command I'm using:
mxmlc -output button.swf -target-player 10.0.0 flash_to_editor.mxml
I'm running the examples locally (as files, not over http). Would it
help to place the files on a server?

Hi,
Here's a solution.
1. Make ExternalInterface work when files are loaded as local files:
Go to
http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.htm l
In tab Global Security Settings: Edit Locations -> Add Location ->
browse to the .swf file, add it. Make sure it's in the list (under the
Edit Locations drop down, with a green check mark.)
Now open the HTML wrapper in a browser (eg Firefox).
Now this works (ActionScript):
private function popUpTheHtmlEditor():void {
ExternalInterface.call('alert', 'foo');
On Windows: perhaps:
http://techjig.blogspot.com/2008/03/flash-global-security-settings-windows.html
"In order for external interface functions to be called, you must also
specify the folder/file where the swf file is located."
The above setup isn't necessary when the files are on a server.
Also see:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/external/External Interface.html#call()
""ExternalInterface" "
"call() method"
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flex/using/WS2db454920e96a9e51e63e3d11c0bf69084-7ea6.html

"Using the ExternalInterface API to access JavaScript"
2. Open a real popup: Example:
ActionScript:
private function popUpSomething():void {
var editorPathOrUrl:String =
    'wrapper.html';
var windowName:String =
    "SomeNameSeeDocs";
var windowFeatures:String =
    "toolbar=yes,menubar=yes,location=yes,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,width=500,height=700";
ExternalInterface.call(
    'launch',editorPathOrUrl,windowName,windowFeatures
JavaScript:
function launch(editorPathOrUrl,windowName,windowFeatures) {
windowRef = window.open(
    editorPathOrUrl,windowName,windowFeatures
Works in all browser I tested except Opera.

          | Row 4 value 1|Row 4 value 1|Row 4 value 1|Row 4 value 1|
Page row 3
     |Caption 1 |Caption 2 |
     | Row 1 value 1|Row 1 value 1|
     | Row 2 value 1|Row 2 value 1|
There can be many levels but always table item is leaf,
Thanks in advance,

Hi
You are probably better posting in the flash forum, as without seeing the code, (and if it is not standard flash html publish) they can probably better advise on a solution.

Referencing static html pages from jsps...

          Hi,
          This is probably a very simple thing to solve, but I'm having problems with referencing
          html pages from jsps under Weblogic.
          I get Error 404 - not found, whenever I try something like this in a JSP...
          <frame name="title" src="title.html" scrolling=no>
          The title.html file has definitely been copied into my ear file, and yet it isn't
          found. I can solve the problem by turning title.html into a jsp and registering
          it in web.xml. But this seems like serious overkill with static content!!
          Am I missing something really simple here?


          I've worked it out - directory mistake...
          Thanks,
          Chris

Most compatable file type to use when copying and pasting specially formatted text into html pages?

Hello,
I have a simple web site at http://www.psychicmeatloaf.com which is an online poetry journal site. I use files people send me (mostly .doc or .docx) and cut and paste the text from those files into html pages in an older version of Dreamweaver and some of the text has special formatting (like this page: http://www.psychicmeatloaf.com/Chang-poetry.htm ). The best way I have found to maintain the special text formatting is to open the .docx files and "save as a web page" in Word and then open the web page from Dreamweaver and then "Preview the page" in Explorer and copy and paste from the preview into an html page in Dreamveaver. Even using this method, some text will not maintain it's special formatting and for those I just save the page as a .jpg file and use that, because I have no other choice.
My question is, is there a better way and is there a better file type to work from other than .docx?
Thanks a milliom,
George

That's a lot of steps to get to a single end that could be done with a simple copy & paste of the text into code. Like Photoshop and Fireworks, Word writes some very bulky and dirty code. I wouldn't recommend it for direct copy by the method described above.
I personally copy the text and paste it into code view. It takes a little more work, but I don't get dozens of lines of inline styles added with it and using a preformatted post div (saved and hidden in the code (), I can quickly put title, date, byline and links up with a cut & paste.
That's just my $0.02 worth
Also, since nearly EVERYONE will use a different formatting in a Word doc, putting a bunch of differently formatted posts into a page will make it look like one of those ransom notes made of cut out text from different newspapers and magazines. Better to keep everything in a single format (your format) so it doesn't become an eyesore.

How to embed Labview-style charts objects into html pages?

Hello all,
I am building a C# (.Net) application that publishes html web pages. Certain pages must contain graphs that I refresh dynamically using select statement that query data from SQL SERVER databases. I like the look-and-feel of the Labview graphs and would like to know in details by which means I could embed them in my C# application. I have looked on the NI web site but aside of certain old articles about Components Works (CW) in Labview 8, have not found any other information on the subject.
Also are there alternate objects that you know on the market that would be more easily embeddable into html pages and still have the same functions as the Labview graphing objects?
Thanks a lot

Hello Crist0phe,
Like tst mentioned it might be a good idea to have a look at Measurement Studio and evaluate it.
You can just download the trial version over here:
http://sine.ni.com/np/app/main/p/docid/nav-99/lang/nl/
FYI: You can consider Measurement Studio as the newer set of tools that replaced Component Works.
You could kind of consider it as a "next step" in evolution after Component Works.
Most .NET developers that use Measurement Studio also really like the WPF UI Controls, so for sure have a look at them while evaluating Measurement Studio.

Open HTML page from the stage

How can I open a HTML page by pressing a button on the stage?
I've created a rollover button and I'm trying to make it open
an existing html page from the local disk (not an internet URL).
But I can't make it open with Lingo or behaviour.
Please help.
Thanks a lot.
Gideon.

goToNetPage "
http://somewhere.html" is the
typical form for a page on
the web, director must use the address format the system's
browser uses
for local files, this is somewhat platform dependant, a
practical
aproach is to open the file in question from within your
browser then
copy and paste the displayed address into your lingo code.
Some report the goToNetPage counterpart provided by the
buddyAPI xtra
works more reliably, the xtra can be used for free if limited
to a
couple of functions.
An alternate approach buddyAPI can use is to have the browser
directly
access the html file as if it were double clicked in the file
manager
using the same form commonly used to open PDF files with
acrobat.
(sorry I don't have example code handy)
