GetURL Parameters

Looking for getURL syntax /parameters that will let me
open/display a specific page of a PDF in a new browser window.
Tried this, but it's not working:
pdf_btn.onRelease = function() {
getURL("pdfs/sample_file.pdf#page=605", "_blank")
The pdf file opens in a browser window, but not to page 605.
It opens to page 1 of the pdf.
Any assistance greatly appreciated.

I did try it on few different pdf files and it works in every
case.
IE and FireFox on windows.
Try testing online, not locally ?

GetURL() to an anchornamed link in frameset

Hi, I have a big trouble...
I have a frameset with two frames (_top and _main)
I have a swf inside a _top frame
I have anchornamed links inside _main frame
The question is: How I can jump to an especific anchorednamed
link in _main frame?
I know you can specify the htm file and destination frame
with getURL parameters...
but in htm the link would look like:
http://mypage.html#anchorname
to go to an specific place into an html file...
Do I myself clear?
Thanx to all who can help me.

Flash MX - button link to iframe?

I have an HTML page with a navigation bar created in Flash
MX. I would like to make the buttons open a URL in an iframe on the
same page. The iframe is called simply, 'iframe'.
I have read many forums and tried a dozen suggested action
scripts, but none work. A few examples below. Can anyone please
help me make the button open a url in an iframe?
Examples that don't work::
on (release) {
getURL("
http://www.whatever-target-page.htm",
"iframe ");
ANOTHER::
on (release) {
getURL("
http://www.whatever-target-page.htm",
"_iframe ");
ANOTHER::
ANOTHER::
on (release) {
getURL("
http://www.whatever-target-page.htm",
target="iframe ");
ANOTHER::
on (release) {
butoninstancename.onRelease = function() {
getURL("
http://www.whatever-target-page.htm",
"iframe");
It is now 1.12am and I have been at this since this
afternoon. Some forums offer suggestions that don't work and two
said it was not possible. It must be possible, isn't it? Can
someone rescue my sanity?
Thanks

Fair enough. :) It probably makes better sense to name that
iframe
something more descriptive, like nav, or siteNav, but iframe
is a valid
name. When you say this iframe is "called" 'iframe,' what do
you mean by
"called"? What HTML are you using?
> Examples that don't work::

The on() function is Flash 5-era code. It still works just
fine, but it
must be attached directly to an object (such as a button) in
order to work.
Nowadays, it's more customary to put code into keyframes. But
assuming
you've used on() correctly, the above code will look for a
frame named
"iframe " <-- note the space character after the letter
"e".
> on (release) {
> getURL("
http://www.whatever-target-page.htm",
target="iframe ");
> }
Here, you still have that space after the "e", but you're
including
something outside the quotation marks in the second
parameter. The getURL()
function accepts up to three parameters, separated by commas,
and all of
them must be strings. The second parameter *is* your target
-- this works
very much like the anchor tag in HTML -- so you don't have to
use the word
"target" here.

"iframe");

Here, you're using both the on() function and the newer
(since Flash MX)
way to handle events, which isn't going to work. Because of
the on()
function, this button doesn't need an instance name --
because it's clear
which button is intended to receive these instructions -- so
... I suppose
one might say you're mixing metaphors here. ;)
That said, your getURL() parameters are spot on in this last
sample, so
revise your work to this:
on (release) {
getURL("
http://www.whatever-target-page.htm",
"iframe");
... and that should do it.
For a bit more detail on the on() function, see this:

GetURL(javascript) not working in flash player 9

getURL(javascript:openNewWindow('

One more note tho, it's good to void the request after you
make the window call.
getURL
("javascript:n_name=window.open('PAGE.htm','thewin','width=400,height=400,scrollbars=yes' );void(0);");
*** VOID
Void returns nothing.
Have you ever seen pop up windows that say [object] in them?
well that's because the function that made those windows had
a return
value that was an 'object'...
Void is use to take the result that some function returns and
discard it.
Some people do window.open(...);void(0); or
void(window.open(..)); - does not
really matter tho .....but it's good practice to use it .
Also, no need to set NO parameters. By default all are set to
NO, you only
define the one you need to be set to YES.

Hyperlink Send to Friend with Parameters

I've created a hyperlink SEND TO FRIEND from a button. The
link works fine with no parameters attached (see code below). Now
we need to add parameters because we're tracking clicks with Google
Anaytics.
Here's the code without the params. It works fine from any
email client:
on (release)
getURL ("mailto:?Subject=UMass Boston video &body=Please
follow the link to a great video from UMass Boston. Check it out! [
http://www.umb.edu/ua/flash/index.html
Now when i add the parameters (following the ?) the hyperlink
breaks
on (release)
on (release)
getURL ("mailto:?Subject=UMass Boston video &body=Please
follow the link to a great video from UMass Boston. Check it out! [
http://www.umb.edu/ua/flash/index.html?flash_changingworld_sendfriend
I've tried following this with a slash a period... no go.
End result: when the email is forwarded, the URL is visible
but the hyperlink is broken. I'm sure I'm just a syntax away from
solving this.
Thanks for your help. Feel free to also reply to
<mailto:[email protected]>[email protected]</a>

Hey Lisa. you might want to try using a LoadVars object,
since these are more geared towards this kind of thing. All you do
is create a loadvars object (e.g. send_lv) and assign values to the
object (e.g. send_lv.subject and send_lv.body) and then call
send_lv.send(). I believe this works similarly to getURL in that it
will open it in the current or new window (depending on what you
pass as the target). This will send the values via POST, but you
can also set it to send via GET.
Also, if you're interested in doing an asynchronous
transaction (i.e. have it load in the background without opening a
new browser window) then check out the sendAndLoad function of
LoadVars. You can view all of this and get more information on the
Adobe
Livedocs.

GetURL("javascript:var myWin=window.open

Hi,
Built a bunch of PDFs using Acrobat Pro 6 -
They are viewed in a web browser and use:
getURL("javascript:var myWin=window.open('http://www.website.com/myfile.asp', 'aWin', 'width=450,height=450,top=150,left=150, scrollbars=1, statusbar=0, menubar=0')");
to open a web page, with a fixed size.
The javascript links do not work in the current Reader.
What do I need to do?
Thanks,
Pappy

Not at all. You can edit your JavaScript in Acrobat 6.x but Acrobat 6.x just won't recognize the launchURL(); method. You could use Reader 9.0 to test the JS to make sure it's working after doing the edits.
Oh! I almost forgot you can find the new JS API documentation here to make sure you have all the parameters correct for the method.

GetURL issue on browser "interactive" mode

Hello all.
I'm having a hard time to show a webpage back on the browser,
after getURL is triggered to get it.
The environment is the following: Nokia N95, S60 3rd
Edition's web browser, Flash Lite 2.0.
Opening the mobile browser, I have a XHTML page, with a link
to a SWF. Upon clicking on it, the browser opens the Flash
Lite SWF properly (in the browser context - as opposite to
standalone - or more correctly even: "
interactive mode")
I'm seeing my very simple Flash application and I have a link
in a getURL on a movieclip
(see the code attached below)
Now, I know page is being accessed by the mobile browser in
the background - once i click the on the clip. However I can't see
it because my Flash Lite app is still visible on the screen.
How can I get to see the web page for which i called with
getURL in Flash?
Trying to come up with a solution, quitting the player by
adding fscommand2("quit"); right after the getURL call, seems to
immediately prevail as it actually closes the player, but doesn't
open the page before.
Does this means that it is not possible to click an object in
flash lite and view a webpage, when the player has been loaded in
browser context, rather than standalone?

Thanks for your reply dietmar.
In my case I wish to have different links with different
URLs.
Say like 3: one for homepage, other for favorites and a last
one for user profile for example.
Whenever the user would push a distinct button, it should
open a distinct URL.
In your solution you will still need to close using
fscommand("Quit");
which represents another new click. The user should not need
to think that he must close Flash in order to actually view the
page that the browser has loaded in the background.
Someone, Adobe or Nokia should be responsible to handle this
faulty behavior. But my first guess would be that it is a Flash
Lite Bug.
Also I am not able to pass JavaScript commands via Flash Lite
2.0 getURL function, to the S60 3rd ed. browser. Note that this
browser can handle window parameters like "_blank". I was able to
simulate the behavior I wanted with XHTML and JavaScript.
Unfortunately not with Flash Lite 2 and XHTML.

AS3 Flashvars and getURL urgent help

I have never used flashVars, even in AS2, but the project I'm working on requires that I use since my client is going to use dynamic urls defined as expressions and he wants to have control without having to edit a fla file. I have read a lot of tutorials and can't seem to come up with a solution. Basically what I want is to load my Flashvars defined in swfObject, each one holding an expression, for example:
<script type="text/javascript">
            var flashvars = {
             rutaMEX:"mainContainer.aspx?Country=pkbE5eknzMLhWZ5x+K3/tA=="
            var params = {};
            params.menu = "false";
            params.quality = "high";
            params.scale = "noscale"
            params.wmode = "transparent";
            params.seamlesstabbing = "true";
            params.allowfullscreen = "true";
            var attributes = {};
            attributes.id = "main";
            attributes.name = "main";
            swfobject.embedSWF("swf/landing.swf", "altContent", "100%", "100%", "10.0.2", "Scripts/expressInstall.swf", flashvars, params, attributes);
        </script>
Right now, I have just one value pair, but I will add them as they become available. I have 11 movieclip buttons which will take you to a url defined by it's corresponding flashvar. If I was doing this is AS2, I would just add this action to the button:
button0.onRelease = function() {
    getURL(rutaMEX);, "");
How will I accomplish the same thing in as3? I know you have to get flashVars using .loaderInfo but that as far as i got.
Any help will be greatly appreciated

Redeclaring the click handler function in each loop through buttons is not necessary, you'd better do it like this, with click handler outside the loop:
for (var i:Number=0; i<11; i++)
    menu_mc["button" + i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickHandler);
And the second thing - click handler. For more flashvars (or if you don't know how many flashvars will be used) you can loop throug loaderInfo.parameters object with for-in loop. The problem here is that order in for-in loop is rather random ("not guaranteed" as they nicely call it :-) ), so it complicates assigning the urls to particular buttons. I would connect here name of a flashvar (this declared in HTML) with a button:
function clickHandler(evt:MouseEvent):void
     for (var par:* in loaderInfo.parameters)
         if (evt.target.name == par) // checks if instance name of the clicked button is equal to the current flashvar, here par is NAME of the flashvar, NOT VALUE
               var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(loaderInfo.parameters[par]); // when the name of flashvar = name of button, the VALUE of this flashvar is retrieved in URLRequest constructor
                 navigateToURL(request,"_blank");

GetURL target IFRAME

Hello guys and gals.
I'm trying to do something which should be amazingly easy and
fundamental, but which just won't work. I've looked all over the
web, millions of forums, and all through flash help and still can't
get a solution.
Basically I'm trying to target an IFRAME with a getURL
command. I've seen loads of people all over the place having the
same problem, but nobody seems to come to any definitive
conclusion, and none of the solutions will work for me.
I've tried the JavaScript function, and tried fiddling about
with parameters but nothing seems to work. I can't believe that
something so basic could possibly be so difficult - especially
since I know I'v ebeen able to do it in the past.
I'm using Flash 8, and trying to target an IFRAME called
'livebox'
I have named and IDd the frame, and I know that you should be
able to specify the frame in the getURL command but it doesn't
work. Please help as this is really winding me up!
Cheers
Marc

IFRAME are HTML elements... getURL can execute some
javascript code but I can't access an HTML tag directly. The reason
is simple: getURL can't receive a return value(or HTML object) so
if you want to execute something like top.yourFrameId.... browser
will return an HTML IFRAME object to the caller and in your case is
getURL.
Try to call a javascript function,
getURL("javascript:yourFunction(yourParams);"); .On IE you will
probably need to use an Fscommand javascript call... ugly but
sometime is necessary. In this javascript function you will call
you IFRAME and it will work...

Numericstepper.value with geturl and GET

hello all, i am using a numericstepper and wish to pass the
updated value (user clicks on the numericstepper, value changes)
via geturl using GET. however, it keeps passing the default value
of 1 (i set it as 1 via parameters) instead of the value that the
user has set. any ideas?

Attached is the full project and html code. Once the project is open run the "transfer" vi and deploy the webservice. At the page http://localhost/mywebservice/webpage/simpleCAS.html you have a couple of radio buttons that can be selected. When these buttons are selected the variables displayed in the "transfer" vi are updated, proving that the data is reaching the vi. If you go the http://localhost/mywebservice/output you can see the correct output is there as well. However when you press the "Get variables" button on the input page the variables are not retrieved, and a status code is not available. Thanks for any suggestions.

Retriving only hidden parameters from request.getParameter

Hi,
I want to retrive only the hidden parameters from previous JSP page into current JSP page. The problem here is that my hidden parameters in privious page are dynamically generated (parameter names are decided based on values retrived from the database) and I cannot retrive them using "request.getParameter(<parametername>)"
Can I find the parameter type (i.e. text box, text area, checkbox, radio or hidden) from the request.getParameter() or request.getParameterNames() methods? or is there any other way to find it.
Thanks in advance for any help

You can use the getParameterNames() or getParameterMap() methods from javax.servlet.ServletRequest to get all the parameters in the request. Even if they're dynamically generated, and you don't know the names in advance, these methods will ferret them out.
getParameterMap() returns name String, values String [] pairs, so you'll have to work with String arrays to get the input out. It's got to be that way to accomodate checkboxes and other HTML form elements that can send more than one value for a given name.
I prefer getParameterMap, because I don't like using Enumerations as much. - MOD

Report should prompt me for parameters, please help.

Hi All,
I am using Crystal version 10, So is there any way I can get the behaviour of my parameters as dynamic parameter? I have this requirement because when I am deploying the Report on BO server, and try to open the report from InfoView, it is not prompting me for parameters, rather it is giving me the copy which we had scheduled earlier. To get the fresh data with different parameters, we again need to schedule the report.
What I want is simple, Whenever user clicks on the report link in infoview, I should be promted for the parameters my report is using.
Please help..
Thanks

SSRS with DAX - parameters multivalue vs total element

Hi all,
I'm using SSRS on top of a SSAS tabular model to create intuitive dashboards for management department.
One thing I'm struggling with is the lack of a "total" on parameters. What I'm doing is, based on the fact table, I create the datasets that will feed each parameter, so it only has the dimension members available on the fact table. That is fine
performance wise, you only have 1 element and it renders very quickly.
For a management perspective at a higher level it is important to view the totals to have the big picture of the information. In my project we are in a University, so I have the parameters Year, school (there are several schools in the university campus)
and the course (computer sciences, math, statistics, etc).
At first glance, if I'm a course coordinador I want to pick my course and have a global view, and I'm achiveing that, but imagine now, that I am the school coordinator, or the university coordenator.
I want to see the aggregate values by all courses or by all schools.
In my view I have 2 ways to do this and I come from a tradition cubes background:
1 - I would use the all element the cubes hierarchy have on each attribute
2 - I would use multivalue parameters with StrToSet (worse performance)
Using DAX what is your approach?
Best regards

Hi AsifMehmood,
Per my understanding you have create an SSRS report with SharePoint list, now you don’t know to create the distinct parameters by using CAML query, right?
For the CAML language doesn’t have any reserved word (or tag) to set this particular filter to remove duplicate results, but we can use the custom code to do this function. I have tested on my local environment and we can do that by create one hidden parameter(Param1)
to get all the values from the fields which will add the filter and then create another parameter(Param2) to get the distinct values based on the Param1, we use the custom code to do the deduplication.
Step by Steps information in below thread for your reference to create the parameters and the custom code:
"How to get distinct values of sharepoint column using SSRS"

If your problem still exists, please feel free to ask and also try to provide us more details information.
