2.7 HTMLLoader, loading html which loads an AVM1 swf which loads other AVM1 swfs.

I have not yet had time to test thoroughly, only just discovered the issue and thought I would post in case anyone already had any insights.
We have an AIR app that loads an .html file into an HTMLLoader. This .html file uses swfobject.js to load an AVM1 .swf (AS2, dev'd by a 3rd party), which in turn loads several of its own child .swf's and configuration .xml files from an assets directory local to the application.
Prior to AIR version 2.7.1.19610, this worked fine (at least, confirmed correct behaviour when using 2.5.0.16600; so it's possible it was an update in between, but this issue was only noticed after our most recent automatic AIR runtime update).
After an update of the runtime to this version, the first AVM1 .swf loads ok - it contains a preloader for its children, which reaches 100%, but then blanks out with nothing more happening. Right-clicking results in the context menu displaying "Movie not loaded..." and "About Adobe Flash Player 10.3.183.5".
Running the .html file outside of the AIR application - that is, doubleclicking and loading directly (in Chrome & IE, at least) - results in the original correct behaviour, so it does not appear to be the Flash Player version.
Our next step is to build our own AVM1 .swf's to help test, as we don't have great access to the internal workings of the ones being provided by the 3rd party. Without testing in our own AVM1 .swf's, there are no errors thrown that we have been able to see. Will update when we have time to investigate further - for the time-being, we will ensure the client remains using AIR 2.5.

Hi Chris,
Thanks - will try and organise some sample code to confirm if and how it's reproducible outside of the project we've found it in, but hurtling towards some deadlines so there might be a brief delay before this is possible. If it's worth adding to bugbase before I can do this, I'm happy to do so, but I'll assume for now it's better to wait.
The quick response is much appreciated!
Cheers, John

HTMLLoader loading local content (SWF files) problem

Hello guys,
I'm just finishing my application but I facing a problem.
I'm currently developing a desktop application using AIR.
I'm using HTMLLoader to load local SWF files when te user tries to access specific content on the application.
I successfully accomplished this, but the loaded SWF also loads other files (assets and xml files with translations) and that is not working.
When a SWF is loaded he just stops on his own loading screen (when loading the XML files).
All this stuff is happening on my CustomNativeWindow:
(my CustomNativeWindow "overlays" the main application)
public function CustomNativeWindow()
         var nativeWindowInitOptions:NativeWindowInitOptions = new NativeWindowInitOptions();
         nativeWindowInitOptions.systemChrome = NativeWindowSystemChrome.NONE;
         nativeWindowInitOptions.renderMode = NativeWindowRenderMode.DIRECT;
         nativeWindowInitOptions.resizable = false;
         nativeWindowInitOptions.maximizable = false;
         nativeWindowInitOptions.minimizable = false;
         super(nativeWindowInitOptions);
         alwaysInFront = true;
         this.activate();
public function setProperties(contentName:String, contentURL:String, posX:Number, posY:Number, stageWidth:Number, stageHeight:Number):void
          this.stageHeight = stageHeight;
          this.stageWidth = stageWidth;
          this.contentURL = contentURL;
          this.contentName = contentName;
          this.x = posX;
          this.y = posY;
          this.width = stageWidth;
          this.height = stageHeight;
          this.title = contentName;
          this.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, onWindowResize);
          SWFHTMLLoader();
private function SWFHTMLLoader():void
          //REQUEST LOAD URL
          var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(contentURL);
          //HTML LOADER SWF
          htmlLoader = new HTMLLoader();
          htmlLoader.width = stageWidth;
          htmlLoader.height = stageHeight;
          htmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onHtmlLoaderComplete);
          htmlLoader.load(request);
          stage.addChild(htmlLoader);
private function onHtmlLoaderComplete(e:Event):void
          trace("NATIVE WINDOW HTMLLoader complete");
          onWindowResize();
private function onWindowResize(e:Event = null):void
          if (htmlLoader)
                    htmlLoader.width = stage.stageWidth;
                    htmlLoader.height = stage.stageHeight;
Probably something related to security?
How can I fix this?
Is kinda urgente... deadline is coming...
Thank you!

Thank you kglad for your fast response...
The reference to the content comes from a XML loaded on the main application.
var xml:XML =      <Content en="game" >
                                  <ImageSource>assets/images/gallery/resources/gameone.png</ImageSource>
                                  <ContentSource>content/gameone/gameone.swf</ContentSource>
                            </Content>;
contentURL = xml.ContentSource;
So contentURL is: content/gameone/gameone.swf
Am I in trouble?

Can I load a swf into my Flex app that loads other swf's?

The code below loads an AS2 swf into my Flex mobile for IOS app and it works. If that AS2 swf has like a circle in it that runs across the stage, it loads and displays properly when run in FlashBuilder.

                                        myComponent.percentHeight = 100;

                                        loader.load(request);
                                        myComponent.addChild(loader);
                                        player.addElement(myComponent);

</s:Application>
But if that AS2 swf loads other swf's, they don't load or display. My FlashBuilder debugger reports no errors or security sand box violations.   I'm using the most elemental code in my AS2 swf so as to not cause problems. This is it in its entirety:
this.onLoad = function(){
          _root.loadMovie("http://[PATH_TO_REMOTE_SWF]");
The paths to the remote content are fine because swf's load and display fine from AS2 swf when run on it's own - not embedded in Flex app. They also load and run fine if I cut out the AS2 swf and access directly from my Flex code. So I know there isn't a path issue. More likely not accessing the right layer in the AS2 swf from Flex or something. Or maybe security sandbox violation but I don't see anything reported in the FlashBuilder debug console. When run console just reports:
[SWF] SwfMobile.swf - 2,639,761 bytes after decompression
[SWF] assets/swf/AS2.swf - 1,470 bytes after decompression
Is there something inherently wrong with loading swf's that load other things? Even if I have the AS2 swf load jpgs they don't load so the format of the target content at the end of the chain doesn't seem to be the issue. Just the act of embedding a swf that loads other things seems to be the problem.

Ah, yes. Using an AVM1 SWF could prove difficult...
I'm going on about 3 hours of sleep at the moment, but let me toss out a few thoughts I have and hopefully something will stick...
Ok, so my first thought what to try and cast the loaded content as a MovieClip and call methods on that, but the fact they are AVM1 throws that out the window.
That leaves LocalConnection, as you mentioned. But this would require you to have code on the receiving end to handle the connection... no good either.
But what if you created a "bridge" in AS2 that holds all the code for the receiving end of LocalConnection (or has the control logic itself, perhaps even eliminating the need for LocalConnection all together!). I think maybe this is what you were trying to do already by loading a SWF into a SWF? Well instead of loading your bridge at runtime, what if you statically linked it into your project as a class?
*a few moments later*
Well it looks like you can in fact link in a a symbol created for AVM1, but it will only come in as a SpriteAsset, and will not include any custom code (which makes sense, since they use entirely different class constructs).
To do the test, I created a symbol exported for actionscript (AS2/Flash8), then linked it in with a CSS style embed. I then instantiated the class and called describeType on it.
So in summery, it looks like calling custom code on the bridge is out (I did not test this extensively, that was just my first impression with this simple test). However, if you may be able to perform the actions you need by attempting to cast the loaded content into something AVM2 can recognize. Apparently it does this automatically when linked in statically, so maybe there is something there worth looking into... mainly, can you do what you need using only the base class and no custom code?
Keep me posted!

I purchased two albums from iTunes but neither properly loaded and I cannot play any of the songs. I have prevously loaded other albums with no problems. How do I delete these albums and reload them? I don't see iTunes on iCloud.

I purchased two albums from iTunes but neither properly loaded on my iPad Mini and I cannot play any of the songs. I have prevously loaded other albums with no problems. How do I delete these albums and reload them? I don't see iTunes on iCloud.

If the albums do appear in the Music app, hold down on the album icons and the X to delete will pop up on the icons. Tap the X to delete the albums.
You don't see a anything in iCloud, you see your previous purchases in the purchased tab of the store that you bought the content in. So you find your music purchases in the purchased tab of the iTunes app on your iPad. Tap on Purchased and look for the albums in the Not on this iPad section - assuming that you are able to delete the albums from the device.

How to clean the html code multiple pages simultaneously with Dreamweaver or other soft ?

hello,
How to clean the html code multiple pages simultaneously with Dreamweaver or other soft ? I have hundreds of pages to clean

I would start afresh. I would also use Dreamweaver's template system to make thing a lot easier. Have a look at the following, copy and paste into a new document and view in your favourite browser.

I made the XSD-Files by XMLSpy. The Documents are well-formated and valid.
When i make a new XML-File based ONLY (of course) on lexikon.xsd everything works fine with XMLSpy.
How must i register these documents? Is it possible? Or can´t i register XSD-Files which includes others?
Thank you very much

Heidi,
register the metadata.xsd first inthe same way and then register the lixikon.xsd.
it should work.

You will need to update the address and country that you have on your account, and if using a credit card then that will need to be registered to that new address - you should be able to update them logging into your account via Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes

Air HTML HTMLLoader load https ssl with untrusted or unknown certificate, click 'yes' does nothing

When i go to a https website with an untrusted certificate i get this warning.
when i click "yes" the HTML component does not go anywhere. just a blank white screen.
tried this out with adobe air 1.5 and 2.0

Hi,
I have the same problem on win 7 with my AIR project that worked fine with HTTP (HTTPService) and that has a chaotic behaviour with HTTPS, i.e. for each request the user need to clic 2 times on yes. The first time for accept the fact that the certificate is not validated by an offcial authority and the second time because the name in the certificate is not corresponding with the name of the server....
Do these two actions for each request makes the application unusable ! I already tried to add my certificate to CA Root on my machine but it didn't resolve anything. Is there a solution to disable these warning from my air application ? Can I continue to use HTTPService for my communication ? Need I use low level classes as SecureSocket ?
Thanks !

LoadClass (error loading a class which extends other class at run-time)

Hey!
I'm using the Reflection API
I load a class called 'SubClass' which exists in a directory called 'subdir' at run-time from my program
CustomClassLoader loader = new CustomClassLoader();
Class classRef = loader.loadClass("SubClass");
class CustomClassLoader extends ClassLoader. I have defined 'findClass(String className)' method in CustomClassLoader.
This is what 'findClass(String className)' returns:
defineClass (className,byteArray,0,byteArray.length);
'byteArray' is of type byte[] and has the contents of subdir/SubClass.
the problem:
The program runs fine if SubClass does not extend any class.
If however, SubClass extends another class, the program throws a NoClassDefFoundError. How is it conceptually different?
Help appreciated in Advance..
Thanks!

Because i'm a newbie to the Reflection thing, i'm notI don't see reflection anywhere. All I see is class loading.
sure what role does the superclass play when i'm
trying to load the derived class and how to get away
with the errorWell... hint: all the superclass's stuff is not copied into the subclass.
I am quite sure it fails to load the superclass because of classpath issues.

HTMLLoader - local HTML file with remote access

Hi,
I use the HTMLLoader to load a local HTML file. (AIR
development with Flash)
In this local HTML file is a remote JavaScript, which I need.
It doesn't work, because of the sandbox.
But is it possible to deactivate the sandbox or anything
else, that I can use the local HTML file with remote access?

Safari won't display a site correctly, sometimes page takes extended time to respond and partially loads other times images wont load

So I have a friend who I've been trying to assist with this. I don't know if she has issues with other sites or she may not have encountered any yet, but one in particular is just not working. It started about a month ago around the time she moved (so different ISP/router etc.) though not entirely sure if it started right after that or if it was just coincidence. Anyways she cleared cookies/cache, no luck. I had her update and restart the computer, still not working. Disabled all extensions, still doesn't work. It can take upwards of 30-45 seconds to even respond in some cases, and when it does sometimes the page is all white with just text improperly formatted, but the background doesn't display at all, other times the background images and text are displaying correctly but the nearly all the user submitted images on the site (deviantart) will not display. I believe she mentioned it occasionally happened on tumblr as well.
Other computers on her network are fine. I downloaded Firefox to see if it was a problem that persisted across browsers and indeed it did. So I went into the console on Firefox and looked at further information and it was returning Status Code 304 Not Modified which I looked up and that says it is telling the browser that the images should be loaded from cache. Problem with that is she shouldn't have any cache as its been cleared. I searched around this issue, found a suggestion saying to clear DNS cache, tried that and suddenly Firefox worked. I then logged into her username on DeviantArt through Firefox and suddenly the issues returned. I eventually was able to log out and things worked again. Now when I log into her account through Firefox it works fine. Safari still has issues.
I've even deleted the cache.db file in the library/safari folder and quit/restarted Safari and still no success. I've tried disabling cache through the developer options. The status code 304 error made me believe that the reason the images weren't showing up is because there is no cache for those images but the server is telling the browser to use the cache so the images cannot load. One last thing I can mention is that on the console in Safari, it often just returns many errors for all the images on the site saying it didn't respond. One time there were errors saying something about the security certificate but I refreshed numerous times after that and that error never showed up again in the console. Anyone know what might be causing this?

Hi ...
Start here > Safari 5.0.1 or later: Slow or partial webpage loading, or webpage cannot be found
If nothing helped from that link, try troubleshooting Safari plug-ins.
From the Safari menu bar click Safai > Preferences then the Security tab. Deselect: Allow all other plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.

Loading other swf's in the background while playing another

I am creating flash banner ads and have run into a size
issue. My final scene ends up being like 700k which is too big for
it's application. The file is made up of 2 scenes however and If I
could split these into two and have them load seperately it would
be ideal. The thing is the second scene needs to load while the
first one plays so that it still feels like one movie not two
chuncks. Is there and easy way to play one movie while preloading a
second?
Let me know.

Building for iOS: how to load other SWFs?

I have an AS3 app that loads two different kinds of SWFs: linear animations (basically stories consisting of a streaming narration track and still images with pans and dissolves), and SWF games of various types. I know that CS5.5 can compile to iOS apps. What's not clear to me is how this works in terms of dependent files. Do they also have to be compiled as iOS apps? How does it work when one app requests another Flash sequence? Is this possible?

Each of the stories is an average of 1mb. Are you saying people won't mind loading 150mb for an app? Although I guess people are used to loading movies, which are considerably larger. Am I just in a "minimal download" mode from the 90's?
"so size doesn't matter..."
