Flash and the HTML anchor

I have a link on a page that takes you to a particular spot
on another page-in other words the link is anchored. It takes you
to a section of the page that has a flash movie. Simple enough.
However, this flash movie has a preloader in it and whenever
I click the link the preloader won't work properly, if at all. I
was assuming it was my actionscript or how I created the movie but
I've tested this thing inside out and had no problems until I
uploaded it.
Then I noticed something: since the link is anchored I
decided to navigate to the page without the anchor (i.e. take off
the #anchor section of the web address) and wouldn't you know it,
the preloader works like a charm.
The questions are this: how could a simple anchored page
affect a swf? Is it possible that the anchor is forcing the page to
skip some of the flash embedding code when parsing? Has anyone even
heard of this and if so, have you heard of any solutions?
If you'd like to view what I'm babbling about:
*page in question
here
*to test the page both ways remember to clear your cache
after the first view
Please note this issue is not dealing with creating anchors
within Flash using the "Flash with named anchor" feature when
publishing it in HTML. The anchor is completly seperate from the
movie.
Any help or insight to this problem would be appreciated!

Still no luck finding any information on this topic.
Please let me know if you know of this and how to resolve
such a glitch.
Thanks

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPhone?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPhone shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).

  • BC won't allow me to insert code (scripts) between the /body and the /html tags.

    Hi guys,
    So I have this weird problem. I'm trying to insert some codes between the </body> and the </html> tags in the page templates. It's saving it. But if you check the page, the code is showing before the </body>, not after. Here's the code that I'm trying to insert.
    <script src="http://i.simpli.fi/dpx.js?cid=1534&action=100&segment=198566&m=1"></script>
    I have also tried adding this code by downloading the templates through ftp, adding the code, then uploading it to the server. Same thing. I even added type="text/javascript" in the code. Still no go. BC wouldn't insert it between </body> and </html>. Any ideas guys?
    - Jeff

    So an update.
    I was told by Adobe chat support to try adding the script after the body via javascript.
    So I added this before </head>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var script = document.createElement('script');
    script.src = '//i.simpli.fi/dpx.js?cid=1534&action=100&segment=198566&m=1';
    script.type = 'text/javascript';
    $("html").append(script);
    </script>
    Still not working. Any ideas guys?

  • My BB won't turn on the red light flashes and the key's light up

    Hi
    I have read all posts relating to my problem, but one thing my BB won't do is resgister on my computer.  The phone will not turn on, has the red light flashing and the keys light up, but the screen will not come on.  I have tried taking the battery out, charging it all night, all the recommended/ideas from this sight, but no joy.  I have only had this phone since July last year.  I haven't been able to try updating phone etc as it won't register on my or my husbands computer please help
    Louise

    Hi,
    The way you presented it made me think it had just happened.
    So you have had the phone since July has it ever worked?
    Most likely you are missing some or all of your device OS and you'll need to reload the device.
    Because the phone can't generate enough signal you will have to "force detect it". I've attached the link below. If you want to proceed I'll need what version of Device OS and what version of desktop manager software.

  • I recently upgraded to lion ,my screen keeps flashing and the dock flickers on and off

    I recently upgraded to lion on my mac book pro but the dock appears and disappears (flashes) and the screen flashes also.  It occurs most when I have Game Manager on the screen although I don't subscribe to it.  I have a game called Cradle of Rome but I have to click the game manager icon to bring it up. That creates another problem - the game keeps freezing up.

    Launch the Messages app from your Applications folder.
    Then click and hold the Messages app icon in the Dock then click Options > Keep in Dock

  • Named Anchors and the HTML doc

    Normally, when using the the default "Flash Only" setting in the HTML publish settings, you can set the dimensions to 100 x 100 percent.  This will make the Flash movie fill the browser window and resize with the browser.
    I'm using named anchors and am using the "Flash with Named Anchors" setting in the HTML publish settings.  Everything else is the same as when I use the "Flash Only" template.  However, when I publish this HTML document it is not filling the browser window correctly.  Instead, the movie is being displayed as if I had set the movie size to 100 x 100 pixels instead of percent.  In other words, the Flash movie is squeezed into a size of 100 x 100 pixels.  Something is causing it to misinterpret percent as pixels.
    I've looked at the HTML document and it correctly says width="100%" height="100%".  This problem occurs in Firefox 3.6.  Everything displays correctly in IE8 and Safari 5.  Thank you in advance to anybody with advice or a solution.

    It has nothing to do with what Dreamweaver will let you do
    nor not do, it has to do with what you the panels are "told" to do
    in certain situations. In this case you want to open a specific
    panel, preferably based upon the anchor name that you're already
    using. Take a look at the URL Utilities sample page, in particular
    at the last example:
    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/utils/URLUtilsSample.html
    This means you'd need to get the full Spry download:
    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/home.html
    If you wanted, you could add a query string parameter like
    the above example does, but that might mean changing a lot of
    links.
    Or you could modify the example code above to "slice" out the
    first letter of the anchor and figure out the index of the tab to
    show (they use a 0 based index, so 'a' would 0 and 'z' would be 25.
    Try the following:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    <!--
    var hash = window.location.hash;
    if(hash){
    // get the character code of the upper case of the first
    letter then subtract 65
    // 'A' has a character code of 65, so the subtraction gets
    our tab index from 0 to 25
    var charCode = hash.toUpperCase().charCodeAt(0)-65;
    if(charCode < 0 || charCode > 25){ // If not in A-Z
    range, use default for 'a'
    charCode = 0;
    else{
    // Default to tab 0, or 'a' when no hash present
    var charCode = 0;
    //The defaultTab value checks to see if the url param is
    defined. If it is not, it sets it to 0.
    var
    var TabbedPanels1 = new
    Spry.Widget.TabbedPanels("TabbedPanels1", {defaultTab: charCode });
    //-->
    </script>

  • HT201412 ok i did the new update and now my phone wont even start up! the apple logo comes up then the screen will flash and the phone will shut off. any ideas?

    as listed in the title, my phone just flashes on me no start up just flashes from the apple logo to shutting off and back and forth i did the update this afternoon (9-26-2012) and it still wont start up!!!

    Something in your backup may be corrupt. Try wiping it and setting it up as a new device, then sync your apps, data and media back to it from iTunes. DO NOT resotre from your backup. If the problem is contained in the backup, it will bring it right back again if you restore.

  • Flash and the ActiveX of IE 7

    Hi,
    I'm developing a webpage with Dreamweaver and Flash for the
    menu and other animation, but every time I visit or test the page a
    message appear "To help protect your security, Internet Explorer
    has restricted this webpage from running scripts or ActiveX
    controls that could access your computer. Click here for
    options..."
    I'm really worry when I have to publish the page, that the
    visitor will not trust the page. Could anybody help me please???
    Thanks a lot!

    Hmmm, I think I might have solved this after a bit of messing around.
    What I have done is to make a copy of the audio book files into a new folder, then delete the originals from the Itunes library. Next import the folder with the files back into Itunes, hey presto they show up in the Audiobook section, then when I copied them to my Ipod, Itunes also sees them in the audiobook secion.
    Would be nice though if I didn't have to do all that messing around.

  • Flash and the Web

    Hi ... I'm hoping someone can assist me. I am in the preliminary stages of choosing a program for creating animation and video for the Web, specifically for Mobile Devices and Desktops. I understand Flash Player will no longer be developed for mobile devices. My questions are as follows:
    Can I create an animation in Adobe Flash Pro, export the animation as a .MOV or .AVI and be able to upload the animation to the web so it is playable on mobile devices and desktops ?
    What program would you recommend I learn in order to create animation and videos for Mobile Devices and Desktops, taking into consideration HTML 5 ?
    I know the basics of HTML 4 and CSS but for the last 10 years I've been working as a Network professional. I'm pretty new to Flash. I am using Flash Professional CS 5.5 and I did the following steps to create an AVI file to test my theory: 
    Opened Flash Pro CS 5.5.
    Selected "Animation" from "Create from Template".
    Selected "Animated Mask Motion Tween" from the templates.
    I played the animation.
    I then selected File \ Export \ Export Movie.
    From the "Save as type" I selected "Windows AVI".
    I clicked Save.
    I then played the AVI file and it played successfully and showed the animation.
    I'm assuming I could convert the file for mobile viewing and could use the AVI for desktop viewing ? Or can .AVI's and .MOV's be played on Mobile devices ?  I would appreciate any recommendations.
    Thanks for the help !

  • I'm trying to download flash and the Adobe website says my anti-virus must allow software downloads.  How do I allow this?

    I'm unable to re-download flash.  I've disabled firewall and allowed apps to be downloaded from anywhere with no results.  Any help is appreciated. Thanks. 

    This is the URL copied from the "install now" link that should be loading on your browser, but isn't:
    http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/download/?installer=Flash_Player_11_for_Mac_OS_ X_10.6_-_10.9&os=OSX&browser_type=KHTML&browser_dist=Safari
    Warning: Clicking the above will initiate the download immediately.
    I took the liberty of omitting the "optional offer" junk from the URL, which was appended to the above link. FYI that was the following
    &d=Adobe_Photoshop_Lightroom_for_Macintosh&dualoffer=false
    Here is the button containing the complete URL: Install now
    The page may not be completely loading for you because it is stalling on the Adobe Lightshop advertisement or something else. It can probably be fixed by clearing the Safari cache.

    I have a black Apple TV that has recently stopped working. It loads the Apple Logo on screen then goes off and starts again. It's as if it is stuck in a loop. I've tried a re-boot and this has failed. I have tried a restore using a USB cable on 5 different computers, including a Mac Book Pro and it downloads the update file but when it tries to restore I get the error code 9 showing on screen. I just can't get it to do anything.
    Can anyone please help?

    Thanks for that information!
    I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
    In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
    When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
    Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?!
