Full Browser Flash in firefox help

Hello.
first I'd like to say beforehand that i'm just an average
timeline flash designer. not really deep into programming. and
doesn't know any programming languages except PHP on an advanced
level nothing more nothing less. I mean, I only use javascript via
copy paste from a site that gives codes. so here's my question:
I have made a full browser flash site, or so it was called
(is that official? FBF?) my problem is, it doesn't work in firefox,
i tried googling, it resulted to change the doctype to an older
one, I did that, no progresss, delete the doctype enrtirely, did it
too, still no progress. And, found some site that let's you insert
css:
<style type="text/css">
HTML, BODY {height: 100%; width: 100%}
</style>
did it too but still no flaah in firefox. and oh, I have the
plug-ins installed just fine. here's my html code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0
Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
lines 1, 2, amd 3,
and then to the flash part.:
<body>
<table width="100%" height="100%" border="0"
cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<tr>
<td height="50%"><object
classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0"
width="100%" height="100%">
<param name="movie" value="flash/main.swf">
<param name="quality" value="high">
<embed src="flash/bg.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="
http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="100%"
height="100%"></embed>
</object><script type="text/javascript"
src="ieupdate.js"></script></td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
It works ok in IE and btw, I only know how to make a full
browser flash by changing the size in the code from width="x" to
width="100%" and height="x" to height="100%" basically, I just set
any dimension i see in 100%. but of course I already created the
flash movie size that extends to 1280 x 1024.
can you help me please? I hope I enough info so you may
tackle wherever I've gone wrong. Thanks!

Any chance your video card might have "video" related settings that might be interfering? While I'm not suggesting that you switch browsers, trying to reproduce this on another browser will give us a datapoint to see if this is firefox specific. I would recommend giving both IE or Chrome a try to see if it still occurs.

Full Browser Flash with Easing

i would like to know how to create full browser flash which
moves back in place relative to the resize of a browser window. i
can not seem to find any writing on this subject.

If you have a lot of elements you are resizing, it may become
worthwhile to look into using a layout helper class to do this
stuff for you:
http://senocular.com/flash/actionscript.php?file=ActionScript_3.0/com/senocular/display/La yout.as
http://abeall.com/files/flash/tests/ActionScript3/Layout.as
http://abeall.com/files/flash/tests/ActionScript3/layout.fla
But it's important to understand how the resizing works. What
both these solutions (above) do is exactly what Jamesabth
described, but it calculates the positions for you.

Full browser Flash stop resize?

I have built full browser Flash sites like
www.agilitygraphics.com and
there is one thing I don't like about them. I would like to
be able to
have a minimum size, at which the browser would add the
scroll bars
back. If you look at the site above, it resizes really small
but never
give the viewer a scroll bar. The file is 800px by 600 px,
but you can
resize way smaller and never get a scroll bar. Is there a
way, where I
can add something to the file, where its like: if browser
window is
smaller then 800 x 600 add scrollbar to browser? So like a
minimun size?
Like a conditional to the embed?
Thanks for the help!

If the document size is greater that (I forgot what), then it
loads the
flash as 100%,100% (and the flash does internal resizing and
placements), if
not, I load a fixed size flash.

Full Browser Flash

Hey guys,
I need to make my site full browser flash because when a
portfolio element is clicked in its menu, a black overlay fades in
and a project swf is called. Simple enough, but of course the
overlay needs to fill the user's window otherwise it will look
disjointed.
When I publish to full browser flash I have set the
dimensions to 100% and got rid of the margins. The only problem is
that the image and pixel text is distorted because they aren't at
their proper size! Is there a certain size I should build to?
I had one idea that I could have a flat colour background
that uses the stage class to scale it's size whilst the content
stays the same size, the black overlay would use the scale class to
define it's size too.
Would this work? I would obviously need to make sure that the
central site stays central.
Any ideas?
Cheers
Sam

you will have to change the scalemode of the flash movie.
AS1,2
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
If you are using AS3:
// assuming mcStage is a Stage object
mcStage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;

Full Browser Flash that Validates in XHTML

I would like to have a full-browser flash intro page and have found how to make that happen by using the publish settings in Flash; however, the code it generates includes deprecated elements (such as <embed>) and does not work at all when I try to add alternate content for SEO purposes or change the DOCTYPE. Where can I find how to change the code so that it still works as advertised as an XHTML 1.0 Transitional (or better yet, Strict)?
I'm working with AS3, by the way, if that makes any difference whatsoever...

Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";

Full browser flash scalable slideshow

Hi All,
I'm interested in making a full browser, scalable slideshow. I have found tutorials on how to create a full-browswer background with a tiled image, and also how to create a full browser background with a movie that runs in the center of the browswer, but does not scale.
I have seen this done here, for example, at this very beautifl website: http://mslandarchitects.com/# This is what we're aiming for.
I know this can be done with javascript, and I have a version of this done for the iphone/ipad... however, I work for a design firm and we need some easier editable schnazzy effects that flash can offer for those who are visiting our website on any device that is non-iphone/ipad.
Can anyone reccomend a tutorial that addresses this particular topic?
Thanks!

Hi There (Again)
Thanks again for referring me to this site...
I'm having some issues implementing the swf fit. When I use the following code, The swf does not fill up the full browswer window when the window is at its maximum size. I get white space on the left and right that will disaspeer as I shrink the window. I would like the swf to take up the full window, regardless of the size. Would anyone mind taking a peak and the code I'm implementing? See if there is anything glaringly wrong?

Full browser flash site - bg images are pixelating

I have my swf publishing at 100% width and height and set it to scale with the browser. The background image was a psd designed at a height of 680 px. When I check on larger monitors the background images pixelates. Is the only way to fix this is to redesign the psd at a higher resolution? What would I need to do to make sure the artwork doesn't pixelate no matter what size monitor is being viewed on. Thank you?

Anytime you enlarge an image from its true size you risk visible pixelation. The images would need to be sufficiently large to handle any resolution.

Does anybody have any idea why this may be happening, and how
I can solve the issue?
Many Thanks

No harm here. Apple does not frequent this site, but only maintains it for user to user communication, so even a left handed comment directed at Apple gets misconstrued as directed at users. I too would like to see things like simple rotation imbedded within the Photo app, but will not hold my breath waiting for it.
There are certainly more things right with iPad than wrong, so get busy enjoying, and check updates every now and then

Full Browser in AS3 - Error #1009

Please Help...
I'm learning AS3 and Flash CS4 right now and I'm trying to do what I have been doing in AS2 for years and I'm having some problems. I'm trying to make a Full-Browser Flash site and upon resizing the screen I get an error #1009.
I am able to to resize the mc's on the screen without a problem, but once I add simple interactivity, I get an error upon resizing the window.
To duplicate this problem,
1. Test the movie
2. Click on either circle
3. Then click on the opposite circle.
4. Then either resize or maximize the window and you will see the "Output window" with the Error #1009
I'm sure I'm doing something very stupid, but I just don't know what I'm doing wrong.
Here's a link to the fla file: http://plusonedesigngroup.com/test/nosaletest.fla
Please Help!
Thanks in advance,
Mike.

doghouse.
Yes, I was able to download your file and Thank You for trying to help. The problem for me is I have no idea where to begin with your file... There are 35 ".as" files controlling this movie and I'm very new to AS3.
Isn't there a simple way to control the timeline of a flash movie while using the full browser?
Thanks,
Mike.

Flash swf that runs on every browser except in Firefox. Can anyone help me please?

Hello.
I have an flash swf in a site that runs on every browser except in Firefox. I get an warning telling me that the page requires a newer version of flash player but i already have the 10,0,32,18 and the swf was published for flash player 9.
Can anyone help me please?

The figures you mention only make sense on your intranet. Are you still using the same wireless router. The verizon one is somewhat limited as far as max wireless-n performace. For one thing it only has a 2.4 radio. I like many people who wanted wireless-n performance before they even added a wireless-n gigabit router, have my own handling my wireless-n network.

I accidently click for a full screen view on Firefox and now I can't undo it. My bar with tools, bookmarks, etc. is not visible. As the browser opens, the bar appears but then jumps up where it can't be reached. How do I turn off the full screen?

Co-el, This wasn't possible as there wasn't a navigation bar available. The F11 did the trick though. Thanks for adding to the discussion.

Firefox kills aero in Win 7 when playinf full screen flash videos.

I have recently installed nvidia 3d vision on my compoter. now when I click on a fullscreen button when watching flash videos like YT, the aero effect in Win 7 is disabled and does no return untill I turn FF off. FF4 and 3.6 has the same problem. Everything is OK in other browsers. I tried to disable the 3d vision plugins but it does not help.

Try to disable the hardware acceleration in the Flash Player.
See:
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Cannot+view+full+screen+Flash+videos
* http://www.youtube.com/swf_test.html (right-click the player: Settings)
Flash "Display settings" window:

I am running Firefox v28. When I open firefox, I get the toolbar and I can even open preferences window but that all! No browser windows (or even help pages).

I use a Macbook pro 13" version 10.9.1. I have tried the obvious fixes ie turning pc off and on. Chrome and Safari run fine so no network issues. I followed the advice to turn Proxy setting off but this made no difference. Really dont know what to do so help appreciated. (the links below - to install the 'trouble shooting' or the 'educated guess' about my system does not open.

Hello Lozzer62,
Thanks for contacting Mozilla Support. The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. <br>
'''Note''': ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.''
*Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Cheers,
Patrick

Maintaining proportions with full screen flash

hi, I have a flash site set up that allows a mc in the
background containing various images to always take up the full
browser window while the foreground elements remain unchanged. What
I would like to do is keep the background images from distorting
when the window is resized...a good example of this is on
redtettemer.com - it maintains proportions and just cuts off at the
bottom or side if it would cause any distortion.
this is the current code I have on frame 1:
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
Stage.align = "TL";
var stageListener:Object = new Object ();
stageListener.onResize = positionContent;
Stage.addListener(stageListener);
function positionContent():Void {
portfolio_bg._width = Stage.width;
portfolio_bg._height = Stage.height;
positionContent();
can anyone help with this?
thanks

No, like cberube said, the graphics aren't corrupt/garbled at all.
The frame rate of the flash video when full screened is the problem here. It has to be something related to OSX and the Adobe Flash player built into the browser. I tried this in both Safari and Firefox to isolate the browser as a variable in the problem.
No matter the quality of the flash vid (it could be an HD TV show from hulu, or it could be some crappy youtube vid) the frame rate will drop massively if you select full screen, but return to normal "smooth" rate when you exit full screen. The only way to fix this is to uncheck "Enable Hardware acceleration" by right clicking on the flash video and entering the flash player settings within the browser.
This is only a work-around as unchecking hardware acceleration means your CPU must now work harder to render the graphics since it seems the OSX on-board graphics unit isn't capable of handling it. Normally, if this happened, OSX would activate the NVIDIA gpu which should be more than capable of rendering a full screen flash video without breaking a sweat. This doesn't seem to be occurring though.
Hopefully this is a clearer description of the problem.
