Flash site problems in IE

hi folks,
i have designed a site in flash with web page links within
the site for each page, animation on certain pages and links
within the site. it works great on safari. however when i go
to differnet IE browsers on different computer, it either
doesn't load completely or it loads the home page and shows
the buttons and their actions, but will not go to the differnet
pages once you click. the html was built in golive. each page
is a separate .swf file with embedded links, yet nothing seems
to work in IE. HELP!!!

how you are communicating with ASP?
can u post your code here?

Dreamweaver and Flash site problems

I have completed my website. It's built in Dreamweaver CS3
with Flash CS3 movies in the Dreamweaver html files. I created it
on a MAC. I have no problem seeing everything on a MAC, but PC
users cannot get around the site. Some buttons won't work. Loads
slowly. Help!

It is built in both Flash and Dreamweaver version CS3 on MAC
using Action Script 2. Here's the problem. In four of the Flash
files we created buttons using the getURL coding to send the viewer
to a new page which is in the root directory on the ftp site with
rest of the site. This buttons do not work on PC's. The other of
the buttons in the site were created in dreamweaver which are
working fine for both Mac and PC. When we load the entire site up
to our FTP site, anyone working on a MAC is able to go through the
site from page to page, and the buttons built in Flash work fine.
However, folks working on PCs cannot get the buttons built in the
Flash pages to work.
If you go to barnesandliston.com, click on photography at the
bottom of the home game and then click on sports or nature or
picture story you'll see that those links don't work (if you are on
a PC). Those are the buttons created in Flash that only work on a
Mac. Code follows:
nature_btn.onPress = function() {
getURL("
http://www.barnesandliston.com/nature",
"_self");
};

Problem with Flash Sites...

I've installed Flash CS3 and when I go to sites that have
Flash activated, they report to me that Flash 8 is not installed. I
follow the link to adobe and reinstall Flash player (have done this
several times). Flash installs and the movie runs just fine. But
then when I go to the site in question, the whole thing happens
again.
I thought it might have been the QuickTime Flash track
settings, but just tried that to no avail. I'm thinking it might be
related to the application mappings for flash files trying to run
Flash CS3 instead of the player, but that's just a guess.
Anyone see this? I tried a couple of google searches and
nothing of value.

have the latest version installed

then if that doesnt work, or it says you have the latest
version, post a link to the site that won't play.
Nope, I understood completely, as indicated in my response. I
was GUESSING the problem was CS3, you answered that. but I HAVE
repeatedly, as stated, installed the FLASH PLAYER... the flash
movie on the Adobe website plays fine after playing. Hurray! But
EVERY OTHER FLASH SITE I VISIT does not work, including the Adobe
site if I leave and return.
ESPN.com is one. Walmart.com is another. ESPN says install
Flash 8. Walmart says install the latest. They both link to the
current version 9 on adobe's site. I install, all installs ok,
return to the sites and nothing.
This was all working just a few weeks ago.

Flash site done - i got a problem

I have my flash site done... but now when i click on the contact page it will go the home page? I have looking, and looking but I can't find the problem. Any clue where I should look first?
If you want to have a look, here is my link: http://www.idmiami.com/maria/ForSmiles.html
Thank you.

It would appear as though you either do not have a stop() for your contact us section, or there is some code causing it not ignore a stop(). You'll need to explain how the design is done and what controls you have implemented for navigation.

Having problems with mailscript for my flash site :(

I posted this on another part of this form but thought it may
be more applicable to this portion of the site so I thank you once
again in advance for your help!
I want to say hello to all and thanks for letting me a part
of this great forum. I am having some problems with my flash site
(www.alliancedirect.net) and I am using Adobe Flash CS4 now with my
site with ActionScript 1.0.
I have a form already made on the site (under contact us) but
whatever I do....I can't make it work! I use GoDaddy and their
gdform.psp is what they provide but they don't give the code in
flash. I downloaded some different flash mail scripts and programs
but I don't know how to incorporate it within my own site and I
don't know what to do! I just want the information to be submitted
to me via email and the other forms I will make away from the flash
portion if it is too complicated.
Please let me know what specific information you may need
from me and how you can hopefully help me as soon as possible as I
need this website completely up and running. Again, I appreciatre
the help and look forward to being a part of your community!

I found this here:
http://www.actionscript.org/resources/articles/82/3/Send-Email-via-Flash-and-PHP/Page3.htm l
THE CODE
stop ();
function lineAdapt () {
message_send = message;
while (msg_count<length(message)) {
msg_count = msg_count+1;
if ((substring(message_send, msg_count, 2)) eq "
message_send = (substring(message_send, 1, msg_count-2))
+"
"+(substring(message_send, msg_count+2,
(length(message_send))-msg_count+2));
message = message_send;
delete msg_count;
delete message_send;
WHAT THE ABOVE MEANS
Line 1 - Stops the play head.
Line 2 - Defines a custom function lineAdapt which will
convert the flash carriage return marker ( " ") to the PHP
equivalent (" "). This ensures that if the user types a comment
with paragraph breaks, these breaks will be reflected in the email,
rather than it being one very long line of text :o)
Line 3 - Sets variable message_send to the value of message.
This is a storage variable: we will adapt message_send rather than
message because message is being displayed in a text box on screen
and adapting it may cause strange visual output.
Line 4 - Begins a loop which will continue until the newly
created variable msg_count is greater than or equal to the length
of the string contained in message.
Line 5 - Increments msg_count by 1.
Line 6 - Conditional statement which checks if the 2
characters within the string message_send starting at letter number
msg_count are equal to the string " ". If you type data into a text
box in Flash and enter carriage returns, you wills see that the
variable which stores that text fields value is adapted with a " "
inserted where each carriage return should be, so we are looking
for these markers using Line 6.
Line 7 - If Line 6 returns True, replace the " " we just
found with " " (which is the PHP equivalent of " "). This code
looks complicated but it isn't really. Al it does it 'copies' the
characters before and after the " ", the pastes those before,
enters " " and pastes those after. The result is the equivalent
string with " " instead of " ".
Line 8 - Sets the variable message to the finalized version
of message_send, which contains no " " markers. We do this because
when we post our variables PHP will look for variables with the
same name. Remember in the PHP code we refer to the variable
messagenot message_send so we must make sure the correct variable
holds the correct value.
Line 9 - Deletes the counter variable for our loop from
memory
Line 10 - Deletes the temporary message_sendvariable we used
for altering the new line markers.
SEND BUTTON CODE
on (release) {
if (subject eq "" or message eq "" or from eq "") {
stop ();
} else {
lineAdapt();
loadVariablesNum ("mail.php3", 0, "POST");
gotoAndStop (2);
WHAT THE ABOVE MEANS
Line 1 - Says "Perform these actions when this button is
clicked then released"
Line 2 - Checks to see if any variable has no value. We don't
want people sending us mail with no reply address for instance.
Line 3 - Line 2 returns True, stop.
Line 4 - Line 2 returns False, go on.
Line 5 - Perform the predefined function lineAdapt () on our
currently entered variables.
Line 6 - Send variables, using the POST method, to our PHP
script which will send the email off. (Note that you could also use
LoadVars objects in place of LoadVariables if you wish to make this
more synchornous. See the LoadVariables and LoadVars tutorial.)
Line 7 - Go to the confirmation message and stop once the
email is sent.

How can I resize my Flash site to fit any screen resolution?

I built a 100% flash site with tiled framing but I have a
problem. My flash was built 766 x 750 pixiels. When viewed at
resolutions greater than 1024x768 the webpage looks great but
anything less than that it looks like @#$@. I know most people
probably view at 1024 x 768. Is there anyway to auto resize based
up on screen resolution or something to detect the screen size and
adjust the webpage accordingly.

tlcarl,
> I know most people probably view at 1024 x 768.
You think so? Even if they have their resolution that high
(which is
fairly standard, nowadays), do you think most people maximize
their browsers
to fill that whole area?
> Is there anyway to auto resize based up on screen

There is, indeed. :) Check out the Stage.onResize event in
the
ActionScript 2.0 Language Reference. That event is dispatched
when the
browser (or whatever container) is resized -- in cases where
the SWF is
embedded with percentages. If that's your aim, you'll need to
code against
that event, which can be done like this ...
http://www.quip.net/blog/2006/flash/how-to-position-movie-clips-browser-resizing
It can take a bit of thought, depending on the complexity of
your goal,
but the result is usually worth it. The site in your URL is
already built,
so this wouldn't do much of anything without opening the
hood, so to speak,
and completely rebuilding the engine. A Flash movie has to be
designed and
programmed to respond to the Stage.onResize event.

Firefox consistently crashes when loading Flash sites

For a couple of reasons I decided to go ahead and install OSS a few days ago. On the first day, the install went smoothly and everything was working just as it should (I used the oss-linux-free PKGBUILD in AUR). Yesterday and today, however, I've started to get a reoccurring problem that is, to put it lightly, driving me nuts.
Firefox (or Epiphany, though I prefer the former) consistently crashes when opening up any site that uses Flash or Java. With the way the internet is going, this is a large chunk of websites—not being able to visit YouTube or the website for Enemy Territory: Quake wars, for instance, is driving me nuts.
Now, when I say "consistently" I don't mean each and every time. I've been able to get these sites to load a number of times, but in the last two days Firefox has crashed in probably 2/3-3/4 of the time when loading any site that has a Flash element. I've made sure that I have not wrongly assumed this has to do with my newly installed OSS by uninstalling, reinstalling the kernel and all ALSA packages, rebooting, and then surfing the web for a while to see if anything went wrong. It didn't.
So my question is this: why is Firefox crashing so often in the two days since I've installed OSS? What can be done to rectify this?
After some experimenting, it seems the problem is worst under the following conditions:
- Having several tabs open, though not necessarily several tabs with Flash
- Listening to music and THEN navigating to YouTube or something.
However, it's not specific to these circumstances. In fact, just before I decided to make this post I opened Firefox, went to a site with Flash on it (one tab), and it immediately shut down. I tried this three or four additional times and was met with the exact same results.
Other info
Firefox: Pre-compiled Mozilla i686 build, v. 2.0.0.11
OSS: OSS (GPL version) 4.0, build 1012
Operating System: Arch Linux 2.6.23-ARCH
I've also posted this here.

I have the same problem. I've never been able to identify when it started. Once firefox crashes, mpd, if it was playing, becomes unresponsive. The only way to get a flash site working again is to reboot my computer.
I uninstalled flash: I'm not going to put up with that kind of behaviour. Now I watch youtube videos on other people's computers --you know how they say "You've GOT to see this movie!". And if I really need to see that one specific video, there's youtube-dl.
Unfortunately gnash doesn't work on youtube for me.

Embedding a Flash animation in a Flash Site

I'm looking for a solution to the following problem. I am
developing my website in Flash and I would like to show examples of
interactive flash animations I have developed. I imported my my
.swf animation to my flash site library, but when I drag and drop
it to the stage the following happens:
1. The animation plays from frame to frame without stopping.
2. Elements which were hidden (off the stage) in the
animation now show up on the stage.
3. When I open the animation in edit view (double click the
animation on the stage) the entire animation appears as individual
frames on one timeline.
I would like to maintain the interactivity of the animation
on the site (i.e. buttons, tool tips) and I suspect there is a way
to embed the animation in the flash site while in flash.
Any ideas?
Thanks

You don't really want to add new files that way. In addition
to the problems that you list, you will also be making one, large,
file. This means that it will take longer to download, and possibly
play poorly.
You should keep these independent .swf files as they are, and
"import" them using either AS2's loadMovie() or AS3's URLRequest()
to bring each file into your movie.

Safari will not display flash sites

safari will not display flash sites? Instead it will show a small box that says "flash" and once you click on it, it then displays the flash site!!
Any ideas as to why this is happening?
I am running .....
Vendor: Oracle Corporation
Version: Java SE 7 Update 25
and
Flash Player: 11.8.800.94

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.

Lightroom Flash Gallery in Flash Site

I am working on a Photography Studio's website and was wondering if lightroom would be able to produce flash galleries that just show the image. I am wanting to load the .swf file for the gallery dynamically through the original flash site, wanting an outcome similar to http://ourlaboroflove.com
Also, I am wanting the images to be loaded dynamically in the flash file because the images will be rather large and I would like to save as much initial load time as possible. Thanks for the help.

Sean, thanks for the help, but I am still experiencing problems seeing my images using flash pages via lightroom 2. My hosting company say that it is a scripting error with lightroom, indeed this is their most recent response -
'Upon visiting tedfoxjoyce.co.uk, I can see there is a problem with your scripts which mean the images don't load, this is not a server side error. Please contact your developers or the software developers for advice.'
Any other advice you could offer would be again much appreciated, Ted

What is the best way to create a Flash site

Hello Everyone,
I am realtively new to flash. I created the splash page of
our site in flash but 1st off it takes to long to load as it is.
But I would like to create the entire site in Flash. What is the
best way to create a Flash site, and are there tutorials out there
or any really good books, resources, or online classes to learn
Flash well. I understand the basic of flash and have created
banners, and other flash materials.
Can anyone help?

For me, as a noob, It's all about creative problem solving.
For lots of stuff, there's no right or wrong solution, but you have
to figure things out on your own. I, too, have built sites from the
ground up, and then rebuilt them even better. It's the only way to
really learn it well. Books, online forums, help docs all sort of
help, but it all comes down to how innovative you can be with
integrating them all into a site that is completely yours.
This might save you loads of headaches: avoid using scenes,
unless you are doing only animation. Keep each of your 'pages' on
their own keyframe, and use 'gotoAndStop' to navigate through them.
This is perhaps the easiest way to create a website quickly.

Flash site not refreshing

Hi all,
I have got a flash site running and have recently run into
some browser issue with Firefox. Firefox doesn't seem to reflect
the new swf files that I have replaced with the old on the server.
I have already tried clearing the cache but to no avail. However it
seem to appear fine on both IE and Safari and I didn't use to have
this issue until recently.
Is is just a firefox problem? Is there any way around this?
Enlighten me
please...

This is probably pointless, but when you go to Tools >
Options - Privacy
tab - In Private Data, Settings - are you certain cache is
checked on? I am
running FF 2.0.0.12 and in the past couple days I've been
modifying files on
servers like mad and the cache clears as expected.
