Controlling swf with html navigation

I am building a site that is primarily HTML. The idea is to
get a swf to play then after that is complete to finish with a show
from a show hide code utilizing HTML. This would all take place
from the HTML navigation and sub navigation.
I know how to get this going using just flash but since this
is an HTML web page I am at a loss of how to control the main swf
using the HTML navigation.

you can use javascript to communicate between flash and html.
use the externalinterface class to communicate between flash and
javascript.

Control .swf from html

Is there a way to control or communicate with a swf from
outside of that swf. On my page Im loading an .swf and a separate
layer with html. Can I create a link to tell the swf to load a
movie?

you are looking for LocalConnection
google for "LocalConnection samples" or check the help files
for details.
Tho with all honesty, checking out samples is way more
understandable than
the attached help files.

Controlling SWF with Javascript

Not sure if this is in the right place but I've been searching for a few days for how to do this. What I would like to accomplish is to create a set of javascript controls that would target a SWF file in an html file. The SWF file is basically a digital magazine and I'd like is to have a user click a button and then flip through the magazine forward and back and also be able to zoom in and out. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Controlling SWFs with dynamic lengths

I need to load SWF applications into my Director files.
Currently, I am using the timeline with an arbitrary amount of
time. My problem is that the length (playtime) of these SWFs are
dependent on the end-user interactivity. If they press every
button, answer every questions, etc… one viewer could be done
in 5 minutes and another user could be done in 30 minutes. I have
no way of determining. Currently, my timeline will run out and I
send the users to a Menu screen. Is there a way to dynamically load
a SWF and have it play indefinitely? I will have a button on the
screen if the use wishes to exit early.
Thanks in advance for any help with this problem!-

EDIT: After
trying out Rafael's suggestions, it looks like that has solved my
problem. Thanks for the help Rafael!!
Thanks for the reply Rafael!-
No suggestion would be dumb. I am a Flash user trying to get
terms with Director 11. I am still trying to wrap my head around
the differences in timelines. I would have thought that would stop
the playback of the SWF, but I think you may be correct! I will
give that a shot and report back. More to come...

Control/unload swf inside html textfield i AS3

Hi,
In a CS3/As3 project I have xml files with html content loaded in a texfiled inside a mc. In some cases I have swf files embedded with img tag in the xml. The problem is that when a swf is loaded this way It keeps 'living', playing with sounds in the background when other xml files and swf are loaded in the texfiled.
Then, every time it is loaded, a new instance of the swf is created and played.
I have found out you can refer to the loader object with getImageReference method giving an id to img tag and, for example, adding an Event.COMPLETE listener to the loader.
But I don't know how to access to the loaded swf to unload it or at least stop it (mc_name.texfiled_name.swf_id doesn't seem to work in AS3)
Does anybody know if it is possible?
Thanks in advance

Thank you, the second method is good to control movieclip in my case (fp9).
But I have still the following problem: the loaded objects (swf or images) seem to remain in memory.
I have a loader like this (swf_Id is the id of img tag)
loader = myMC.MyHtmlTextField.getImageReference("swf_Id");
and, following your indication, a second Mc like this
myMC2=MovieClip(loader.content);
doing the following things seem to remove the objects from stage but with no effects on the memory wich always increases
myMC2.removeChildAt(0);
myMC2=null;
loader.unload();
Any idea about this?
Thanks a lot!

SitePage content with HTML access controll possible?

Hello community,
I created a SitePage with HTML content as Intranet. And within this content, you have some links to the sub-sites.
Now, I want to control the links for the users. If has "User A" access to the sub-site, present the link and if not, show another text.
Is this possible? Or is there another way?
Thanks in advance.

As of my knowledge, free flow web(html) content dont have permission or audience target attribute with it. Navigation, library, list, item does has those feature.
When We have same requirement, we displayed all links and let SharePoint authenticate where user dont have access. We keep it simple.

Integrating Flash swf or html with Dreamweaver

I created a swf file to replace my current static background image (page properties) in dreamweaver (the files are the same dimensions). When I try to select it, the swf file is grayed out. So I deleted the background image and inserted the flash swf with a transparent bkgd. When I preview it in my browser (safari) it doesn't work. I like the position of the static file and would like the swf to stay in the same place to compensate for different user monitor sizes. Please Help!!!!
The current/live site is http://www.sistercirclemedina.com you will see the static image (header_11_01.jpg). I added the revised homepage (index.html) to my site you can find that at http://www.481gddr.com/sistercircle/index.html The script files required are in a script folder on the hosting server. I also inserted the swf into a completely new dreamweaver document and it does not work.
If the swf file won't work...why? Should I try to use the js and input that into the dreamweaver code?
Thank you so much for your assistance and time.

Check, if all the paths in your projects are "relative" paths.
If you drag&drop files or link in dreamweaver, DW will most likely use absolute paths.
Then when you upload your files, some of this paths won`t exist.
I also inserted the swf into a completely new dreamweaver document and it does not work.
You cant really "insert" a swf into a dreamweaver document.
DW in this case does nothing else then telling the browser (via the <flash> tag where to find the swf. that has to go into a <div>

Stopping the browers controls interfearing with the flash content?

Hi, I've been working with flash for many years but have recently come up with a problem I have never seen before.
When i've embedded the perfume finder app into a website I'm working on the back button in IE and other browsers makes the flash file jump back to differnt anchors. Is there anyway to have it separate so not to interfere with the navigation of the website?
http://www.bodyandsoulperfumes.com/templates/perfumefinder.html
here is the HTML code of how I embedded it
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab" width="550" height="500" id="Perfume Finder">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.bodyandsoulperfumes.com/templates/BandStest.swf" /><embed src="http://www.bodyandsoulperfumes.com/templates/BandStest.swf" width="550" height="500" name="Perfume Finder" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer" /></object>

Yeah! identified you controlled something from your flash file I think. becoz check the address bar it changes to different ids
http://www.bodyandsoulperfumes.com/templates/perfumefinder.html#F1525G
http://www.bodyandsoulperfumes.com/templates/perfumefinder.html#F1525A
Whatz above meant? where you updating that? check on the html file and your flash file. I hope it was controlled.

Embedding swf into HTML+JS AIR app

Hi
I'm trying to embed swf into HTML+JS AIR app with no luck.
First, I created flash library with this class in default package.
package
     import mx.controls.Alert;
     public class Utilities
          public function Utilities()
                         //asdfasdf
               Alert.show("asdasd","");
Then I compiled the project with Flash Builder and got library.swc as result. Then I extracted swf file.
After this is added required code into my html:
<html>
<head>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="AIRAliases.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="AIRIntrospector.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.6.2.js"></script>
    <script src="library.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        $(document).ready(function () {
            alert('loaded');
            air.Introspector.logError("aaa");
            var v = new runtime.Utilities();
    </script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
Then after I run application, I get error that result of expression is not constructor, function etc.
Could you help me please? Thanks in advance.
Here is sample code:
http://depositfiles.com/files/jztpnlb3a

No. I mean that the Flex framework makes certain assumptions about the environment it is running in -- like having a stage to work with. The Alert function, for example, works by creating a sprite and adding it to the Flash display list. Since your embedded SWF is not on a stage, there's no way for it to work.
You can can possibly use certain non-visual parts of the framework, such as the rpc package, but I can't guarantee it.

SWF for HTML, how ?

Hello,
I've created a composition of (772 width X 231 height). I want to put it on my website. I on the Homepage.
I just want it to play once and then stays.
I already looked for File -> Export -> Adobe Flash Player (SWF). When its finished rendering it gives me a JavaScript file,
a .swf file and a .HTML file. When i open the HTML it shows me a bad quality version of my Composition. (Even if i choose High-Quality)
I actually just want a explenation how i can make a clear file on my website.
I have this as HTML code as my Menu/Navigation. (I did hide the links)
<tr>
<td height="231" align="right" valign="top" background="images/header.jpg" id="menu">
<a href="index.html">Home</a>
<a href="1.html">1</a>
<a href="2.html">2</a>
<a href="3.html">3</a>
<a href="4.html">4</a>
<a href="5.html">5</a>
<a href="6.html">6</a>
<a href="7.html">7</a>
<a href="8.html">8</a>
<a href="9.html">9</a>
</td>
</tr>
It looks like this:
(772x231)
Now i want After Effects to create a file that plays on the back, one time and then stops.
I know this has a bit of HTML as well, but i hope somebody can help me out
Gravious

When i open the HTML it shows me a bad quality version of my Composition. (Even if i choose High-Quality)
Exporting to the SWF format is only a good idea if you consciously limit yourself to a specific combination of source types and features that AE's SWF exporter can mantain as vector graphics instead of leading to rasterization (ie, converting vector graphics to bitmap images). This means using only text layers (with text animation, not bad), solid layers, imported vector files (AI/EPS/PDF/SWF), with basic transformations (position, scale, etc) and masks. Using any effect (with a couple of exceptions explained in the link below), 3D layers, blend modes, nested compositions, motion blur and any kind of bitmap image/video layer will make it impossible to export a vector file. And in that case, for features labeled as unsupported for vector export, the SWF format is really, really inefficient at compressing bitmaps. When this is the case, you want to use FLV (Adobe Flash Video) instead of SWF. It will give you much better quality at much lower data rates.
To read more about which features and source types are supported or unsupported for vector export when exporting to SWF, see Render and export a composition as a SWF file in After Effects help.
Now i want After Effects to create a file that plays on the back, one time and then stops.
I think that's what the HTML from AE's SWF exporter will do if you turn off the "Loop continuously" checkbox in the SWF export dialog, right?

SWF and HTML won't play stand alone

My .swf and.html files won't play on their own even with
latest Flash player installed (flash player 9). The html will play
if right clicked and internet explorer is selected manually, but
not on its own. Both files will play on their on when on a computer
with Flash installed. I finished the project and published them
using Flash 8, what's going on? I didn't see anything in the
release notes. Anyone have an idea or had this problem?
Thanks!

Looks to me like the issue is indeed your CMS. The flash content is loaded in a lightbox, which is most likely controlled by some JavaScript or ASP. My guess would be that the problem lies with the paths to the files. The swf file that the lightbox loads is referenced in your CMS so it knows where to get it - the thing is that most likely it is not played from the location where it's located but instead played from the location where the lightbox script is loaded. Since the 4 SWF's you have are not located there it won't be able to find it.
Also this lightbox approach isn't very good for this type of content. The demo is extremely small and the alignment of the Flash file looks weird. Instead just use the HTML file generated by Captivate and upload that to a directory in your CMS. Then change the link you have so it opens the HTML file in a new window and everything should work out just fine.

Problem with jquery slide show conflict with vertical navigation menu in Firefox & Chrome

Problem with jquery slide show conflict with vertical navigation menu in Firefox & Chrome. Works in IE. This is my first time trying to post a question - so please be kind. I am also not good with code and am finding css a real challenge after learning to design based on tables. I'm using CS5.
The "test" page with the slide show is: http://www.reardanwa.com/index-slides.html   The same page without the slide show is http://www.reardanwa.com/
I realize the images are not ideally sized - I'll fix those once I get the pages to function. Maybe I need a different slide show? I would prefer a widget that I can modify to required size & postition. Again - I'm not good at building with code from scratch.
The problem is the naviagation links that are directly next to the slide show do not work in Firefox of Chrome. They do work in IE.
I've read about using jQuery.noConflict(); code but can't figure out the correct way to use it in my case or whether that's even part of the solution. I know my code is not well organized as I have cobbled together from various sources in an attempt to format the page the way the client wants it. Also, FYI, I will eventually try to make the page work in Surreal CMS.
I've spent sevaral days over the last several weeks trying to solve sth slide show/navigation conflict - so any specific light you can shed will be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

If you DO want the slideshow overlaping the navigation try the below css:
.sidebar1 {
    float: left;
    width: 225px;
    margin: 60px 0px 60px 60px;
    color: #FFFF0D;
    background: #595FFF;
    border-radius: 13px;
    -moz-border-radius: 13px;
    -webkit-border-radius: 13px;
    padding: 5px 5px 0px 5px;
    border: 3px solid #F7F723;
.box {
float: left;
margin-left:-60px;
width:700px;
height:350px;
border-radius: 13px;
-moz-border-radius: 13px;
-webkit-border-radius: 13px;

Load SWF file in main SWF with parameters

Hello everybody,
I recently got a new flash Application which is a Photo Gallery.
This App is made of multiple folders (source files), a FLA file, a SWF with its javascript SWFObject and an Html page which instantiate this App with some parameters (size, config file path, ...).
It needs an XML file to find all the Photos it displays, to do it I need to configure my application in the HTML Page and give it the "xml_path" :
var so = new SWFObject("index.swf", "gallery", "249", "249", "10", "#111111");
so.addVariable("xml_path","load/config.xml"); // this line is adding the path to the xml file make sure that it's name is xml_path
so.addParam("allowfullscreen","true");
so.write("flashcontent");
By the way, I have a second application, the WebSite, which have to display the Gallery SWF in its "Gallery" page.
Here is how I do it at the moment (in ActionScript3) :
var swfRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("C:/......../Galerie/index.swf");
var swfLoader:Loader = new Loader();
//Charge le SWF Galerie dans le SWF Site
swfLoader.load(swfRequest, context);
container1.addChild(swfLoader);
//Positionne le SWF
swfLoader.x=10;
swfLoader.y=120;
It successfully loads the Gallery application but It shows an error telling me it doesn't find the XML configuration file... In the HTML file I simply had to write the "so.addVariable("xml_path","load/config.xml");" to tell where the XML file is...
So, my question is : How can I integrate my SWF application giving it some parameters like above, in Action Script 3?
Thank you ,
Patrick

No, nothing with HTML.
I have 2 SWF applications. One is the Gallery, and the second is my Main Page.
My Main Page must integrate the Gallery module in one of its page.
The problem is when I try to integrate it, I think I must give de future loaded SWF some parameters like this :
(My Main SWF loading in HTML)
var so = new SWFObject("WebSite.swf", "flashcontent", "520", "700", "10", "#111111");
so.addParam("allowfullscreen","true");
so.addParam("allowScriptAccess","always");
so.addParam("menu","false");
so.addParam("wmode","opaque");
so.addParam("bgcolor","#000000");
so.setAttribute("id","flash");
so.write("flashcontent");
It was for the Main App. For my Gallery SWF I had to load it like this (in HTML) :
var so = new SWFObject("Gallerie.swf", "gallery", "249", "249", "10", "#111111");
so.addVariable("xml_path","Galerie/config.xml"); // this line is adding the path to the xml file make sure that it's name is xml_path
so.addParam("allowfullscreen","true");
so.write("flashcontent");
So at the beginning I had 2 different projects with an HTML page for each.
Now I wan't to directly integrate the Gallery SWF into the Main SWF. And as you have seen I must give it some parameters such as the "xml_path" and "allowfullscreen". This must be done in ActionScript 3 and I don't know how...
I think I have to use FlashVars but I don't know how. As I said before, I have tried using the loaderinfo.parameters, but it is in read-only...
Do you have an idea of how I can make it work ?

Textarea with HTML editor is not working

Hi all,
This is producing me a real headache.
I created the simplest application in the world with one Textarea with HTML editor, and the editor control does not show the usual tool bar for fonts, color, alignment, etc. Just a ordinary textarea.
Moreover, this was working before... I moved to another location in my work (me, not the server). Yes, I thought about the Internet Explorer, but Firefox has the same issue.
So any idea I can try to make this work?
I have another applications already in production with the same issue.
Need help!!!!!!!!!
Thanks in advance.
Lukas.

Lukas,
I would go and integrate FCKEDITOR (http://www.fckeditor.net/ ) into your application.
Here are instructions on how to achieve this (sorry but only in German):
http://www.oracle.com/global/de/community/tipps/einbinden_fckeditor/index.html
It basically means:
1) copying the files from fckeditor under the /images directory
(you can use the instructions here: http://daust.blogspot.com/2006/03/where-are-images-of-application.html)
2) creating two shortcuts INCLUDE_EDITOR_SCRIPTS and EDITOR
3) placing the shortcut INCLUDE_EDITOR_SCRIPTS into the page html header and
4) placing the shortcut EDITOR into the post element text of your plain textarea element
That's it.
BTW, FCKEDITOR has been included in Apex 3.0 as a standard item type.

~Dietmar.
