Flash browser back button

Hi guys, hopefully someone can help me on this!
I am using the deepLink function and am keen for my button mc
to navigate to a marker on another scene.
In Scene 1, the first frame within the button mc has the
following code:
this.deepLink = '/news/';
this.onRelease = _parent.btnRelease;
this.onRollOver = _parent.btnRollOver;
this.onRollOut = _parent.btnRollOut;
stop();
This navigates to a frame labeled '$/news/' in the same
scene. My ideal situation is for 'news' to be in Scene 2 and for
this button navigate to a frame labeled '$/news/' in Scene 2.
Is this possible?
Also I have noticed the above Actionscript goes to the
relevant frame but does not automatically play (as per the
gotoAndPlay function). Is there a way to make it play
automatically.
Many thanks in advance - tearing my hair out!!!

i am sure you have seen this or heard of it, but i use it on
all my sites

hopefully that helps

Browser Back Button after Leaving Flash

Hello -
I am currently working on a site where a button in the flash takes you to an external link. The user would like the browser back button, when you are on the external link, to take them to the page on the flash that was last viewed without restarting the flash. Is this possible? Thank you!

Thank you very much!

Is there any way in actionscript 3.0 to enable Browser Back

The best way I know of to do that is using swfaddress:

Browser "back" button won't work when linked from Catalyst graphic

I am using Flash Catalyst in (CS5 Design Premium) because I am much more a print than web designer so bear with me.
I created a .swf file in FC, and placed it at the top of a "router index" page. I linked 10 "buttons" in the .swf, each to a different anchor on the "router index" page. Clicking on each "button" jumps to the correct anchor, so far so good.
The problem is, when I hit the browser "BACK BUTTON" in IE only (Safari and Firefox work fine), it does not jump back to the top of the "router index" page. It jumps back to a previously opened page (homepage or another page), instead of back to the FC .swf graphic on the "router index".
FC apparently only allows linking to "absolute" URL's, not "relative" URL's, (so my links to the anchors are "absolute"). I don't know if this is the source of the problem with IE. I have always linked to anchors previously in Dreamweaver using "relative" URL's, and have never encountered this problem.
I looked over the files that FC creates and cannot find one that I understand, or shows an editable file path that I can change.
I hope i don't have to buy Flash Builder. Right now I have Design Premium. And... I don't understand Actionscript.

Hi azaral
Take a look at Project > Quiz Manager... > Quiz
Settings tab. My guess is that you have DE-selected the "Allow
backward movement" check box.

Browser back button not working with ADF Application integrated with SSO

I have integrated an adf application with Oracle SSO Authentication. Application is running fine.
Though, while navigating between pages, using browser back button , it is not redirecting the url properly
Should Redirect it to : http://<hostname>:<port>/<contex-root>/<servlet>/<id>
Presently Redirecting it to :http://<hostname>:<port>/<contex-root>
As, directory browsing is not allowed, there is Error 403--Forbidden .
Can anybody tell what changes needs to be made to make browser back button work.

In some of the documentation I have read, they have mentioned that using the back button in a browser doesn't work too well with any JSF type of application (not just ADF and Jdeveloper apps).
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E15051_01/web.1111/b31974/web_form.htm#CFHHJGJH
Instead, they suggest using buttons on the form.
There is a video on using navigation between forms that may be of value: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsPtmRID5XI&feature=plcp

The browser back button is not working correctly when using the search funtion in ProBoards forums. Is there a known issue with ProBoards & FF?

I have submitted a bug report to ProBoards, but they cannot duplicate the problem I am having, so I am submitting this here in hopes you can find a solution.
At ProBoards Support and another PB forum while doing searches I found this problem, which continues with repeated testing over the past week or so:
url: http://support.proboards.com/search
1. enter perameters for the search (posts only by staff for the last 2 days)
2. choose one of those post results & click on it (choose a post on page 14 and not on page 1 of the results)
3. using the browser back button, attempt to return to the previous page of search results
4. rather than being taken back to the search results with my parameters, the search parameters have been removed and the page show 1000 results of posts by everybody.
I have tested this over and over again, disabling plugins, and nothing seems to alter the malfunctioning of the back button when I am doing this search function at ProBoards.
I have tested it in Internet Explorer and find that in IE the browser back button works properly with ProBoards searches. I always get the result I expect, so it's a problem with how FF interfaces with ProBoards, I think.

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
To clear cache and cookies do the following:
#Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
#Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
#Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
#From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
#Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.

Reporting Services add (browser) back button

Dear all,
I have a client that has 4 reports; 1 main, and 3 that are rendered when the user clicks the report data on the main report (which passes parameters to generate the other 3).
They would like to have a back button in the report header of the 3 reports (they don't want to use the browser back button).
Is this possible using a text box, then editing the navigation properties and does anyone have an example? Or am I missing something quite obvious?
Any help would be gratefully received!!
Dan

Browser Back Button x Stale Data

Hi,
I'm facing a weird issue with back button handling.. whenever two sessions of the browser are opened to access the Oracle Applications, when changing something in one session, moving to the other session to change another thing and come back to the first session, even for completely different products and responsibilities, it gives me the stale data error as below. It seems like the session has been invalidated since I'm sure I haven't use the browser back button.
Is this an expected behavior?
++Error: Cannot Display Page++
++You cannot complete this task because you accessed this page using the browser's navigation buttons (the browser Back button, for example).++
++To proceed, please select the Home link at the top of the application page to return to the main menu. Then, access this page again using the application's navigation controls (menu, links, and so on) instead of using the browser's navigation controls like Back and Forward.++
Thanks,
Eduardo

Yes,that is the expected behaviour. In oaf http session is synchronised with the clicks, so on same desktop if u open two different apps sessions you will face the error, which ur facing now.

Browser Back Button and form navigation

Some times when you use browser back button and adf-taskflow navigation buttons, validation on form fails, witout having made any change even with enabled token validation.
Reproduction steps on HR schema:
1. Create QueryDepartment and EditDepartment Views and navigation rules in adfc-config.xml
2 Create ADF view only table page for QueryDepartment selectable, and add navigation button to go to EditDepartment
3. Create EditDepartment form with navigation buttons and button to navigate back to QueryDepartment
test:
1.Run QueryDepartment and select a department
2.Go to Edit Department using navigation button
3.Navigate to next department pressing the 'Next' button
4.Navigate back using the Browser Back button.
5.Try to navigate back to QueryDepartment using the navigation button.
My result is validation error on DepartmentId field 'Error: JBO-25013: '
Is this a bug or am i doing something wrong?

Hi,
maybe I don't get it, but as I understood you have problem with focus on select button. So why don’t you set focus onLoad on another element of your page?
Something like onload=”$x(‘ELEMENT_NAME’).focus()”;

Open previously viewed Tabbed Panel when using browser back button

I have a page containing SPRY tabbed panels, and was wondering if there was a way that if a user navigates back to this page using the browser back button, the last panel viewed could remain open. Using hash tags in the URL works for Mozilla but not for IE8. Here is the sample page: http://www.davidkneale.com/wcusa/expedition_leader.html
Does anyone know how I can get this to work in IE8?

Perhaps you missed the announcement that Adobe is no longer investing in the development of Spry. See: http://blogs.adobe.com/dreamweaver/2012/08/update-on-adobe-spry-framework-availability.htm l.
There used to be a dedicated Spry forum, but it has been changed to read-only.
Spry isn't exactly dead, but nor is it in the best of health. Add to that the fact that IE 8 doesn't support the HTML5 history management API, and the lack of replies isn't really surprising.

Form field validation: All required data lost when clicking browser-back-button!

Hi folks,
I have a big problem using the validation text field components of Spry when the user must click the browser back button (or clicking a history.back()-Link) because he has entered a wrong CAPTCHA-code!
Right now, all the data - only in the required fields - not in the optional fields!!! - is lost and the user has to enter all data once again;-(
Does anybody know why only the data in the required fields is lost? Is there a nice workaround?
I really appreciate a quick answer:-)
Kind regards from cloudy Germany

rememberFormInputs('frmlogin', 'input-');
'frmlogin' should be the id of page, not the name. so on your <form> tag, add the id="frmlogin"
remove the
// overload alert
function alert(str) {
     var el = document.getElementById('alert');
     if (el) {
          el.value += str+"\r\n";
Its really bad practice to overwrite the alert. and inside the rememberFormInputs remove these lines:
alert('old value remembered: '+old_value);
alert('setCookie: '+name + ' = '+value);
and it should work

IE Browser back button goes to two pages back

I am not using JSPs, using a servlet ABSServlet to display the search page, after entering the search criteris I'm displaying a report page. The report page has a button 'Save As Excel' which open the report in the Excel form. When I click on this button browser asks 'Open' or 'Save'. I clicked on 'Open'. It open the report in excel form in the same page. Now if I press the IE Browser back button it takes me to the Search page instead of the report page.
Ideally it should go back to the Report page(preiosu page) if I click the back button and not to the previous to previous page. Can someone help?

You cannot (practically) modify the function of the browser's back button...
You can patch it though.
Put in the intermediate (search) page something like
<script language="Javascript"></script>
<body onload="sendback()">Not really a Java solution, but should work.
