Flash URLs

Can anyone help. I am fairly new to Flash but I am having
trouble with some URL links within a flash swf file.
Using the behaviours pallete I added the Go to web page
option on four buttons I created in the FLA file. The buttons were
also to activate on release and open in '_top'.
Having placed a swf file within Dreamweaver, the URL buttons
within the swf no longer opening a new browser window. When
previewed in IE or Safari the button just fill the screen with the
speficied web page. For an example go to
www.fdadesign.co.uk/climatechange
Cheers Steve

replace the target '_top' with '_blank'

Flash URL open in same window

Hello. I have a flash slide on my site. The slide has next and previous buttons to either move to the next slide or the previous slide. Each slide is only an image. When you click a particular image it takes you to the page specific to the image you clicked.
My issue is this:
When you click the image, it opens the page in a new window. I would like to have the window open in the same window, but having issues figuring out how to do it.
The flash is controled by an image.xml script. I've added target= "_blank" to the xml, but the URLs are still opening in a seperate window. Any ideas how to get this done? I didnt create the flash, is it possible the issues lies within the .fla file?
Below is a sample of images.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
<images>
     <pic>
        <image>imagesimage.jpg</image>
        <caption>Some Service</caption>

Ned, thanks for the resonse. I've changed the xml file from _blank to _self, but still openes in a seperate window. In Firefox it opens in new tab. In IE it openes in a completely new window.
I've cleared my cache, closed the browser, and tried again. Still openes in seperate window. Think its within the action script?

Multiple charts load in a page fails displaying the apex_util.flash url

I have a dashboard with 4 charts (3 flash charts, 1 html chart) in four regions. Dashboard displays all the charts initially. When i keep reloading the dashboard (as one of the chart is a drill down chart which results in reloading the page), one of the flash charts does not get displayed, instead i see the url (apex_util.flash?p=105: ), it is essentially the url for retrieving the flash chart contents which displayed in place of the chart. If i reload the dashboard again then the chart gets displayed. Any reason why this is happening and how it can be avoided.
Thanks in advance.

I am facing the same issue. For me the charts never get displayed. The reports works fine.
Please help.
Thanks,
Mehabub

Creating a Flash URL Link

Hello there,
I'm trying to create a number of URL links in a Flash menu I
have made for a website soon to be released officially on the
internet. When I test the movie in Flash, I click on one of the
menu items and it not only opens the link I have specified to that
button but opens all of the other links.
The FLA file can be viewed by visiting:
www.freewebs.com/torbayhospitalradio/header.fla
Regards,
Coxdabd.

Hi Coxdabd...this is an easy one. You've coded all the
buttons with onClipEvent (mouseDown) event handlers. This means
that when Flash detects the mouse click, anything with this event
handler will execute the code--so all the buttons see the mouse
click and execute. That explains why you're getting all of the URLs
at the same time, instead of just the one that you clicked. A
better way would be to code the buttons the same way you did the
rollOver and rollOut events; for instance the Home button would be
coded as:
// place code in a root timeline frame, no on the Home
movieclip
Home.onRelease = function() {
getURL("
http://www.freewebs.com/torbayhospitalradio");
Good luck,
Albee

Embedding Flash in Swing

Hi Flash community
I am researching on having the Flash application embedded in
the Java Swing GUI.
An approach seems to have the Http client view to load the
flash url. But are there any additional technologies from Adobe?
How extensive is the integration forFlex to call Java
objects/functions if http is not used?
Thanks
Nilesh Gujarathi

how about asking Mr. Google - he knows a lot of libraries....
well here is one:

Ctrl-T command do not work in website with flash

Ctrl-T command do not work in website with flash
== URL of affected sites ==
http://

If the Flash object has focus then key presses are processed by that plugin.
In such cases you need to click outside that plugin (e.g. the menu bar if you can't click on the website) to make the keyboard work.

Spry and Flash

Still working on a website using Spry and Flash. I have this
page (select portfolio) that works in Safari, FF on the Mac and FF
on the PC but not IE7. It was coded using swfobject to load the
Flash.
http://208.106.214.149/eryxtest/index.html
I changed the code to Dreamweaver's Flash loading script. I
now have two problem. One, how to pass a parameter that is being
set - xmlDataPath1 = '{@name}'; to the script. I have this
hardcoded at the moment. Second, for some reason the script now
runs when the page loads and not when selected from the menu like
the the above link.
http://208.106.214.149/eryxtest/indexIESolution2.html
Please, any help would be appreciated. My original goal was
to replace a totally Flash based site with Spry + Flash, eventually
replacing the Flash gallery with a javascript gallery.

Charlie,
Did you figure this out? I've got a similar thing, where I'm
calling a simple flash URL, using Spry and an XML file, but it
won't work in IE7.
My document is at:

Help diagnose a blocked site

Hi.
I'm trying to put a weather widget on our intranet site and for people in our "Restricted Internet" group we have a URL category list called "Allowed Domains". Basically I put the domain in .accuweather.com and I still cannot get this widget to load for a test user in the ldap group "Restricted Internet".
So the next step I did was go to Web Tracking and look up the user name, website and blocked for the transaction type. For some reason there are two results which contradict each other.
In the Disposition column it says Block - AVC, however in the Website column it correctly shows URL CATEGORY: Allowed Domains. This is a contradiction because if it is an "allowed domain" it should not be blocked. Any idea why this site would possibly be blocked? I did have the weather.com widget on our intranet site and that worked fine, however the accuweather widget shows a little more information.
Here is a clip from the Website column in Web Tracking:

Good call on the Flash Video.
I SSH to the Ironport and played around with grep. Found this, which looks to be flash video. Oddly I didn't even think of it as flash video, as myself (in the very unrestricted IT group) can see the weather widget and there's obviously no video. However one of the pages calls an swf from another server... it must be the way they dynamically draw the sun or clouds in the forcast.

Received several of these updates and unsure if they're forgeries, FlashPlayer_V.102067514b.exe

aloha,
I've received several of the above iterations of presumably flash player updates, however upon checking with the adobe flash url, my V is current. What are these and who should I be contacting if these are forgeries or malware?
My OS    WIN7 (x64)
My Browser     Mozilla Firefox V. 20.0.1 (up to date)
Adobe flash Player     V.11.7.700.169 (up to date)
mahalo-n-aloha...konadon

Aloha Pat,
Thanks for your interest...
These have popped up looking like an Adobe flash Player Update splash screen telling me that I need to update. They occur when I have my browser open and tuned into either Adobe TV, Lynda.com or Creative Cow do some refresher training. On May 3, I downloaded 6 of these updates.
I decided to try to load the latest v (the 1 id'ed above) and when I started loading I thought better of it and cancelled the load and began my investigation.
I have since deleted them from my computer and my browser download history. the might be in the windows temp file someplace but I don't know if that will give me the URL id they came from.
I'll try again later to see I if I get them again and try to ID the URL.
Do you have any further interest?

SIP8961 press messages button and get "Messages not available"

I can go offhook and dial the voicemail pilot number 6599, but pressing the messages button says "Messages not available” in large pop-up (see attached photo) (debug ccsip messages shows no output either).

Muilti-Streaming FLVs problem

im working on this template and have been fine so far untill
now when trying to add more than 1 streaming FLV in the WORKS
section, the first video works fine on the first viewing of that
page but if you click on the first thumbnail again the video just
gets stuck on the buffering loop, also if you try to click on
another thumbnail (the first 4 are video) they just dont seem to be
working just get stuck on the buffering stage again im sure there
somthing little or somthing in my face thats wrong but i just can
see it.
to view the site and see what i mean click on the link below
and goto the WORKS section
[url=http://www.nwmsltd.com/flash]http://www.nwmsltd.com/flash[/url]
this is the thumbnail button code
on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay("s1");
on (releaseOutside, rollOut) {
gotoAndPlay("s2");
on (release) {
if (_root.k<>1) {
_root.g1 = _root.g;
//this tell Flash which frame to goto in the gall movie clip
_root.g = 1;
_root.text="01";
_parent._parent._parent.gall.gotoAndPlay("s1");
this is my streaming video code which is in the gall movie
clip which is holding bid _p movie clip where all the code is on
the first 4 frames the following code is on each frame just the
video url is different

Also, if you're using VS, if you add a reference to the SW

in the Solution Explorer pane then you can look at what's
available in the
object browser (as in double-click the reference after you've
added it).
Other than that, I have no idea.

Adding a url to flash buttons in Dreamweaver

I have a web site built and I have recently added Flash buttons and I need to add my web pages to the buttons. How would I go about doing this?

Let's say you create a button symbol. Since it is a button, it is already a self animating object that will react to mouse interactions, but only visually at this stage. The first thing you need to do to make it useful code-wise is to assign it a unique instance name. So you drag a copy of it out to the stage from the library, and while it's still selected, you enter that unique instance name for it in the Properties panel... let's say you name it "btn1"
In AS3, to make a button work with code, you need to add an event listener and event handler function for it. You might need to add a few (for different events, like rollover, rollout, clicking it, but for now we'll just say you want to be able to click it to get a web page to open. In the timeline that holds that button, in a separate actions layer that you create, in a frame numbered the same as where that button exists, you would add the event listener:
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btn1Click);
The name of the unique function for processing the clicking of that button is specified at the end of the event listener assignment, so now you just have to write that function out:
function btn1Click(evt:MouseEvent):void {
   var url:String = "http://www.awebsite.com/awebpage.html";
   var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
   navigateToURL(req);
