External loaded mc covers parent

I am loading a swf file into a parent file, in the parent
file i have enclosed two buttons that are not visible when the
external the swf loads into it. The swf that loads covers the whole
parent stage and i cannot see the buttons at all no matter where i
place the layer or whether I place them on each layer for the
corresponding movie clips that should load. I have made the parent
stage higher by 200 pixels but when the external swf loads the
parent swf resizes to the dimensions of the external or child mc.
the problem i am thinking is that my code is not targeting the mc
instance i have placed on the parent stage. Here is the code i am
using to load the swf into the parent, the swf is loading
externally.

as far i understand your buttons just is behaind the your new
loaded movieclip? You can use this one
mx.behaviors.DepthControl.bringToFront(MovieClip) this action is
help you to bring some MovieClip on the top of all.This is little
bit off-topic but when you load movieclip try to load with
MovieClipLoader class because you have the full control of the
loaded external movieclip i mean width,height,x,y pos. with
loadMovie you cant get it.

Using the DateField in an Externally loaded SWF

Hello,
I have been having major trouble trying to get a basic PHP
contact form to work within an externally loaded SWF file inside of
a parent SWF. When I test the movie on its own it seems to work
fine (example: I'm able to select a date from the DateField
component). However, when I open up the parent SWF file and call
the external SWF file with the form the DateField is basically
unusable (example: when you click on it nothing happens, no
calendar pops up to select a date).
I have no ActionScript on it yet, simply because I figure I
need it to work before I tell it what to do with the PHP file. The
instance name on the DateField is "theDate". Any help is very much
appreciated. Thank you.
Also, I have just successfully used the contact form on the
web. But, the only user interface components I am able to edit are
the input text boxes, not the DateField or the ComboBox I have in
it as well. This is very odd, I was not aware that anything special
had to be done using these UI components within an external file.
Elijah

Hello 2m,
Maybe if you were to see it, it may help you out a bit. If
you
click
here for the external file you will see that the components are
working. However, if you
click
here for the parent file and then click on "Meetings" on the
top menu you will see that they do not work at all. However, if
someone were to hit the "send" button, the PHP code would actually
interact with the form. Let me know if that helps at all. Thanks
again for replying.

I have loaded a movie clip, which has buttons on it that I
would like to controll the main original website timeline with.

How to make a page that should be inside an iframe load up its parent page?

Hello all
Here's my dilema...
I'm creating a site with page fragments that the user is able to view by having it load into an iframe. So far so good and it's all working perfectly well.
The problem that I envisage is that, even with no-index robot meta tags, Google et al are almost certain to index these page fragments and proffer them in search results.
So, my question to you is two-fold:
1 - how can I make a page fragment load up the parent page should it be selected from a Google search result
and
2 - once the parent page is loaded up, how can I then make it load the selected content page into the iframe so that the user sees what (s)he is expecting to see?
I'm imagining that it will require cookies and scripting, but I'm still at the (very) early stages of learning such stuff, so have no clue whatsoever on how to go about it!
Any bright ideas / tutorials / sites I can nick code from / complete solutions that I don't have to pay for would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Peter

AFAIK there's no practical way to do what you require. Sorry. This is one of the many downsides to Framed sites. It also makes bookmarking and printing pages difficult. Not to mention user unfriendly from a web accessibility viewpoint. Re-think your need for Iframes throughout an entire website. The best websites use one complete page for each topic.

Enable External Load Balancing error

Hello,
I'm trying to create a DirectAccess farm with 2 external Load balancers (Step 3.1.1 http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj134166.aspx)

Dynamic Text in Externally Loaded swf

hi. i have a dynamic text field in an externally loaded swf. Its a digital clock so i want the numbers to update in the dynamic text field.
this is not my exact code but it is very similar. i show below that i add the loader.swf, and once its loading is complete, i can work on its movieclips and add event listeners to its buttons, etc. but i cannot change the dynamic text field (its "classic text" set to "dynamic text"). after running this, the text just stays empty as it is in the external swf).
here is the sample code:
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.load(new URLRequest("loader.swf"));
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loaded);
function loaded(event:Event):void{
     addChild(loader);
     var loader_mc:MovieClip = (loader.content as MovieClip)
     loader_mc.myMovieClip.gotoAndStop(2);//***this works
     loader_mc.myButton_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickMe);//***this works
     loader_mc.myText_txt.text = "12";//***this doesn't work******
please help. thanks!

Did you embed the font in the textfield--it needs to be done in the loaded swf when you create it? One other thing to check is that the color for the textfield is not the same as the background it sits on.

UAG External Load Balancing and ISATAP

Hi Experts,
I am deploying a UAG Array to be used for Direct Access. The Array will consist of two servers and use an F5 External Load Balancer. In addition and in similarity
to 90% of the other corporate intranets out there, the internal network is IPv4 with no IPv6 transition technologies deployed. The article
http://blogs.technet.com/b/edgeaccessblog/archive/2010/05/17/configuring-an-external-load-balanced-uag-directaccess-array-for-an-ipv4-only-network.aspx
isgreat but to my mind has no information to support ‘Manage Out’ and throws up a number of questions: (Note that I want to enable ‘Manage Out’ capability and as far as I am aware that is achieved by using ISATAP)
The article describes that you have to generate and configure your own IPv6 address for the internal interface when using an external load balancer. Does anyone know why? Why not let UAG assign
the addresses as per the default?
UAG by default configures itself as an ISATAP router when there is no IPv6 infrastructure deployed on the internal network
to facilitate ‘manage out’. This still applies when using Windows NLB. Why does this no longer apply when using an external load balancer? I.e. Why does UAG no longer configure itself as a ISATAP router?
In relation to question 2; you therefore need to move your ISATAP router to a different device (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee690463.aspx),
in doing so how do you configure the ISATAP environment to traverse the UAG servers without some sort of load balancing on the internal interfaces? I’m assuming that you can only tell the ISATAP router to use the one default gateway i.e. either one UAG server
or the other. This means that you would have all your outbound internally initiated traffic going via one server only – not very good for performance or fault tolerance.
In relation to question 3; I thought therefore that NLB could be used on the internal interface to solve the above problem, except that I have read that you can’t mix and match external load
balancing and NLB even though they are on separate networks due to bidirectional affinity. What does this actually mean and why does this not occur when load balancing is mixed in this manor?
Therefore when you wish to use external load balancers, do you:
A) Except the fact that you can’t use UAG as a ISATAP router and you do indeed need two devices
and deploy it as described here (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee690463.aspx)
or
B) Except the fact that that you can’t use UAG as a ISATAP router and any internal outbound
traffic travels via the one UAG server only.
Apologies for the long post, but I wanted to make sure that I get my thoughts down concisely so that it may help others who come up with the same questions
J
Thanks for your time everyone
Gary

I am also facing the same issue. I have UAG1 and UAG2, which are in an array, and externally load balanced. I've configured an external ISATAP router according to:
http://www.windowsnetworking.com/articles_tutorials/Configuring-ISATAP-Router-Windows-Server-2008-R2-Part2.html. However, as mentioned by others, the ISATAP router has to have either UAG1 or UAG2 as the next hop for IP-HTTPS traffic. As
a result, communication between the DirectAccess client and management devices will only work if the client is tunneling through the same UAG server that the ISATAP router has as the next hop for the IP-HTTPS prefix. From what I can tell, my configuration
is supported, but I can't figure out how to have the ISATAP router determine which UAG server a client is tunneling through. I thought about having two separate IP-HTTPS prefixes for each UAG server, but this would get overwritten when activating
the DirectAccess configuration. Maybe some type of internal load balancing?

External Load Balancing OAM11g Servers

With OAM 11g, DB 11.2.0.1, RHEL5.6, and WLS 10.3.5... we have clustered the managed servers and all that displays, starts, stops as expected -- hosts are H1 and H2. We also have an external load balancer (haproxy). By "external", I mean that the host (PRHost) where the protected resource (PR) resides is outside the LB and all of the OAM infrastructure is inside the LB. We actually have 2 layers of LB because we are also trying to create a disaster recovery site, but for now we'll concentrate on the just the webgate and the LB.
We have installed WLS 10.3.5, OHS 11.1.1.2, and have deployed a PR on the PRHost. We then installed the 11g webgate on PRHost and instantiated the webgate within the OAM Server on H1 and moved the artifacts to the PRHost.
The question is fairly simple -- at least from my perspective -- the webgate gets its connection information from the ObAccessClient.xml artifact created when the webgate was added to the OAM Server. The only connection the webgate understands is the listing of the primary/secondary OAM Servers within that artifact.
QUESTION:+ When we access the protected resource, how will it know to go through the external LB if the only connection information it has is the OAM Server? We realize that there is LB information within the OAM Server setup, but this means that in order to determine where the LB is, we need to first access the OAM Server setup. We require the PR to first go through the LB to find an available OAM server, but there appears to be nothing on the PR webgate to inform it how to find the LB.

Luis,
you need the command 'portmap disable' available in 5.01 and 5.03

Externally loaded FLV

In my SWF fie, I have an externally loaded FLV file.
I now want to add another FLV that will load and play
automatically when the first one is finished.
I actually want the SWF to jump to a new scene when the first
movie is done.
How can I do that/ what the actionscript?
Steven

Hey Steven,
I am not very sure but just giving a shot answering it...
You can use FLVPlayback.complete event to detect the
comepletion of first flv and set the path of other flv on complete.
Something like this:
import mx.video.*;
my_FLVPlybk.contentPath = "
http://www.helpexamples.com/flash/video/clouds.flv";
var listenerObject:Object = new Object();
// listen for complete event; play new FLV
listenerObject.complete = function(eventObject:Object):Void {
if (my_FLVPlybk.contentPath == "
http://www.helpexamples.com/flash/video/clouds.flv")
my_FLVPlybk.play("
http://www.helpexamples.com/flash/video/water.flv");
my_FLVPlybk.addEventListener("complete", listenerObject);
Hope that works...

Load swf into parent according to successful log-in

Hello out there!!!
I would like to have a swf loaded into a parent swf at a
level # once a log-in is successful. Which swf is loaded will
depend upon the user associated to the log-in (different swf for
different users — using phpMyAdmin).
Thank you for reading!!!!!

Assuming you are using a database to store the users you
could use administrative levels of your choosing ie 'level1' level2
etc
THen you could feed that info to a conditional statement in
the swf whcih kinda says if(userLevel==level2){load x.swf etc

External loading

Hi guys. Just have a couple of questions about external loading.
Firstly, in order to reduce the file size of my swf, I want to place all the video and image content on a server and just loading it in using as. Is this done using a standard URLRequest or do I need the NetConnection thing?
Secondly, say I aim to have a preloader, which loads all content of the swf before the users enters the website (The swf will be a website...I aim for no loading whatsoever when the user enters the site). Will the preloader load all the content which relies on the above method (URLRequest or NetConnection), or will this only happen when the user navigates to a page which holds the video or image to be loaded from the server?
Any advise appreciated as always,
cheers

you can load swfs and bitmaps using the loader class.
and, if you have a preloader for your main swf that will not preload swfs and bitmaps loaded using the loader class unless you explicitly preload those assets.

Drag and Drop for Externally Loaded Videos

Good day to all. Thanks for viewing. My problem is that im trying to click and drag videos externally loaded onto the flash stage. Apparently normal drag-drop methods won't make it work Anyway to work around this error? Thanks! Here's what i've came up with so far.
var videoConnection:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
videoConnection.connect(null);
var videoStream:NetStream = new NetStream(videoConnection);
videoStream.play("video.flv");
var video:Video = new Video();
video.attachNetStream(videoStream);
addChild(video);
video.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, dragMovie);
video.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropMovie);
function dragMovie(event:MouseEvent):void
video.startDrag();
function dropMovie(event:MouseEvent):void
video.stopDrag();

var mySprite:Sprite = new Sprite();
mySprite.addChild(video);
addChild(mySprite);
Then add listeners that you added to video - to mySprite.

Portal Drive not working with external load balancer

Hi,
We have a portal cluster and we are using external Load balancer from
Juniper for load balancing the portal cluster. When given the direct
portal URL (Central instance URL or Dialog instance URL), Portal Drive
is able to connect to portal and shows the KM documents properly. But
when given the Load balancer URL, it gives error saying "Can
not connect to host using WebDAV protocol". Load balancer URL works
fine from the browser without any problems. Any help is highly appreciated.
Helpful points will be rewarded.
Regards,
Chandra

Hi Steve,
For Portal Drive, Windows integrated authentication, client certificates,basic authentication and Kerberos is supported.
(in the default delivery of com.sap.km.cm.docs iview the authentication Scheme is set to basicauthentication - switching that to form based authenticationis not being supportedbywebdav clients).
ALso now Integrated Windows Authentication (NTLM) has been made available with latest patch.
Also read through SAP NOTE 1084683 for further clarifications.

Listen for a variable in externally-loaded interactive swf

Hi,
I'd like to set a variable inside an externally-loaded swf created in Flash Professional that is playing inside a Flex 4 application. The swf will "signal" the end of an interaction (using a s:SWFLoader). Once the variable is set (by arriving at a particular frame inside the externally-loaded swf, I'd like my Flex 4 application to "know" and take action to unload the swf and then "navigate" to another state with a new Flex-based interraction.
Perhaps a step-based illustration will be more clear:
1. Clicking a textfield inside a Flex 4 application loads a custom component that uses an <s:SWFLoader> to load an external SWF that includes buttons to navigate through frames in a "slideshow" fashion.
2. Once the end of the "slideshow" is reached, a variable is instantiated by
var swfEND:String = "swfDne";
3. I'd like my Flex 4 calling application to know when this event occurs, then I'd like the sef to unload and Flex to goto another state.
Any help, particularly on how to detect events in external swfs from Flex will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Doug

When the timeline changes to a different location, something
in that new
location changes the value of your color variable -- so why
not just update
the code in that location (or those locations) and have them
perform the
functionality that depends on the variable's value?
In any case, you should be able to use the Object.watch()
method.
Instead of creating a simple variable, create an instance of
the Object
class, then use the Object.watch() method to keep an eye on
things.
