Get current HTML URL into flash with LoadVars and ColdFusion

I need to get the current page url and pass it into flash.
I'm also using ColdFusion. Is there an easy solution?

I gave up on bringing in the URL and parse it into a string,
there is too much I don't understand. I put in two commands in the
HTML where the Flash movie is sitting:
1. <param name="FlashVars" value="airport=sbn"/>
2. and in <embed src I put in, Flashvars="airport=sbn"
"airport" is the variable in Flash (it is called as
"_level0.airport" in the Flash file) and "sbn" is the variable
definition for 12 of the files. I will just find "sbn" and replace
it with the new airport name in the next set. It's not very slick,
but it's better than having to create a new navigation for every
airport. Thanks for the help.

  • External html page into flash

    how to load external html page into flash? (AS3)

    You cannot load an html page into Flash, though you can try to load the html code that it contains into a textfield.  Flash supports only a very limited number of html tags, so it is highly likely you won't get what you are after if you are reading an html file that hasn't been edited for Flash specifically.  Just look up the TextField.htmlText property in the AS3 help documents and it lists the html tags that are supported. 
    For AS3 you need to look into the URLLoader class as far as loadng an extrernal text file goes.

  • Can I Embed a URL into Flash?

    Hi All,
    I have a dynamic graphic that is updated periodically.  I want to know if I can embed the URL into Flash.  The URL is:
    http://cache.www.gametracker.com/server_info/68.232.170.145:16567/banner_560x95.png?random =751479
    I'm using CS4 but am developing this site in AS2.
    Many Thanks,
    Scott

    Hi Keith,
    I would like to have the URL embedded in my Flash project (web site).  So that the URL is displayed in a section of the web site.  I suppose the best way to explain this is that I want the URL to be displayed automatically on the web site with no mouse or user interactions.
    Does that help explain it?
    Thanks,
    Scott

  • Ok, so I transferred my 3S info to my 4S by restoring from an old phone backup.  But SIRI is gone and god knows what else??  Can I get my old stuff into the new phone and keep the 4S new functionality?

    I suspect unless he had some items in iCloud backup then they are gone.  Connecting an iPhone to a different library from that to which it was previously connected will result in the device asking if you want to erase it.

  • Is it possible in iTunes 11 to get the old album list view, with covers and track listings like in 10?

    Is it possible in iTunes 11 to get the old album list view, with covers and track listings like in 10?
    If not, then to me that is a huge retrograde step

    No, the old album list view is not an option in iTunes 11...
    You can restore much of the look & feel of the previous version with these shortcuts:
    ALT to temporarily display the menu bar
    CTRL+B to show or hide the menu bar
    CTRL+S to show or hide the sidebar
    CTRL+/ to show or hide the status bar (won't hide for me on Win XP)
    Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour
    Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide the cloud items. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (and may let iTunes start up more quickly)
    If you don't like having different coloured background & text in the Album view use Edit > Preferences > General and untick Use custom colours for open albums, movies, etc.
    If you still feel the need to roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the 32 bit installer or 64 bit installer as appropriate, uninstall iTunes and supporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.

    Anyone know how to gernerate CRUD applications with flex and
    coldfusion? I am working with a remote coldsfusion installation
    with MS SQL and I don't have RDS.

    You might investigate "squidhead". It is CF based. I'm not

  • Recording Flash with iShowU and importing into FCP?

    I need to create some motion graphics for a video, though I am not good enough yet with Motion and would like to use Flash. I am wondering if there are any issues with creating my project in Flash, playing it back and recording it with iShowU and just bringing it into my FCP project this way. It seems like it should work fine, just want to see if there might be anything I am overlooking?
    Thanks.

    I"m not slamming iShowU. It's great, and it's easy to use.
    I would just choose graphics built using Motion over graphics built using Flash and then iShowU, the quality will be significantly different. But that's my opinion and depending on your final destination (like a podcast for instance) you may be better off going your direction. With regard to audio though, be aware that iShowU compresses audio using AAC.

  • If I buy a new iPhone 3GS on eBay, can I transfer the SIM card from my current iPhone 3GS into the new one and will it still work?

    I have an 8GB iPhone 3GS on AT&T, and I wanted to purchase a 16GB version on eBay. Will I be able to just pop the SIM card out of the current iPhone 3GS into the new iPhone 3GS and have it work properly?

    Yes, you will be able to use it provided that the 16GB version of 3GS is either factory unlocked or locked to AT&T network (in case of a carrier locked phone).

  • I did every step including reinstall intunes to get my IPod touch to sych with intunes and not show up as a camera and nothing works. I even updated the device drivers. Genius bar at apple store told me the ipod was fine, the problem was my intunes. Help

    I did every step including reinstall intunes to get my IPod touch to sych with Itunes but it fail to recognize it as anything other than a camera. It still recognize my Ishuffle as a device. The Genius bar as an Apple store told me the Ipod worked on their Apple PC, my pc is not an apple, I attemped every step to rectify the situation including updating the device drivers. I wonder if I need to eliminate every old residue with the word Apple in it on my computer to get it up and going again. Please help !

    If not this:
    iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem.
    Also heating sometimes works. See:
    Why can't I select my wifi settings?
    A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
    Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
    Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
    Power up
    Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
    If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

    Then:
    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? See other networks? If yes that tends to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network      
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • When i try to open itunes i get insert a disk into removable disk f and when i look for that on my computer there is no disk f

    when i try to open itunes i get the message insert a disk into removable disk f and when i look for disk f there is no f on my computer. I thought i might make a disk f that letter is not available in my device manager section. So i try and uninstall/install itunes it was error message wd is invailid character. I am in a pickle here.

    To solve this issue all I did was check to ensure that the file permissions were set as described by the earlier posts, followed by simply deleting the iTunes Library Genius.itdb file.  Once the file was deleted I was able to open iTunes without difficulty.  Note that I am running Windows 8.  Hope this helps!

  • I get different result when I paste with mouse and shift+ins

    Sometimes I get different result when I paste the clipboard content with mouse and shift+insert key combination. Why? What can I do to stop this annoyance?

    Just to add a little to the above, there really is no universally applied standard (not even close) for how the primary, secondary, and clipboard buffers should be used.  Any X program can use them however they wish.  But there are some common patterns: selected text should be placed in the primary buffer, and X pastes from the primary buffer with either middle click or shift-ins by default.
    This default can (and unfortunately often is) overriden by clipboard managers - I don't know why they don't stay true to their name and just manage the clipboard buffer, but they often don't.
    <mini rant>with no clipboard tools installed, selected text in any program I have is in the primary selection, and shift+ins or middle click paste from this primary selection.  Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V post to/from the clipboard buffer.  No need for extra tools.  If I install any clipboard manager, this default sanity of X11 goes strait to s(&*Y.  I don't like clipboard managers </mini rant>  <mini praise> X11 is great without any of that cruft added </mini praise>
