I created a link to a SWF in Dreamweaver, and can't close the SWF...

Hello all-
I am experimenting with a website in Dreamweaver, and created a link to a SWF. When the link is clicked, the SWF displays but there is no way to close it (it takes up the entire screen.) I know I need to add AS3 code to a close button in the SWF, and NOT close the browser window. I know the answer is simple, but fscommand("quit") doesn't seem to work....there should be a simple line of code that does this- if anyone knows I appreciate some help, and thank you in advance for your time!!!!

if you have access to the server where the swf resides, you can program a Flashcontainer (you need flash to do that not Dreamweaver) that loads the swf on your on stage (google as3 load external swf) and remove it deliberately.

    Also improving [Embed] so that it can recognize .TTC files as assets (previously these were only recognized through CSS @font-face rules).
    QE: Yes, please add a test case for using [Embed] to embed fonts from a TTC file in addition to our tests for @font-face. Note that the AFEFontManager must be configured for this scenario.

    I am trying to link coc between a new ipod and my iPad. The iPad was the old device. I did as I was supposed to by logging in the Game Center, then opening coc, and went thru the tutorial. The Game Center keeps trying to load the new village on my iPad and not the other way around. It basically is trying to make my old village the new village, meaning I lose a lot of progress. How do make it combine the 2? If I cannot, is there a way to remove the new village off the Game Center and add the one I want to be saved? Thank you.

    You'll have to contact the app developer for help with this.

  • Working on linking one pdf to other documents and got and (43) error and can't open the main pdf.

    Working on a pdf document linking to other pdfs and got a (43) error message and can't open the document. How to fix.

    Hi dotcofton,
    Is it possible that the PDFs you're working on are on a USB? Windows can return this error when a device is no longer accessible by Windows.
    Please let us know if that is not the case, and we will go from there.
    Best,

    You have to change your page design so the link doesn't occupy the full screen of your content.

    I tried to authorize my new computer and can't find the link anywhere? Also iTunes only recovered the songs I purchased from the iStore, what about the rest?

    If the menu bar is not visible, hit CTRL+B then Store > Autorize this computer
    iTunes Store keeps a purchase history for your Apple ID and allows ypou to redownload purchases. Any other media add to iTunes from outside the store (CDs, etc..) are not uploaded to iTunes unless you have purchased iTunes Match. Those items you will need to add from your backups.

  • How can I make the SWF page in my interactive PDF keep the page change on-click

    Hi there,
    I'm creating an interactive PDF presentation for a client, and I've spent some time learning how to animate the text for certain slides, export to SWF and place that SWF back in the InDesign file. I then export to an interactive PDF to display in full screen mode. The problem I'm having is that I can cycle forward through the PDF slides by clicking until I reach the SWF page, but then the hand cursor changes to an arrow and I can't move the presentation forward in full screen mode.
    I'm sure there's an easy fix, I just can't work it out. I'd be really grateful for any help.
    Many thanks
    Andrew

    Bob: it will be a PDF presentation fed from a laptop to a large display screen with about 50 slides (1920px x 1080px) to support a speaker (person). Most of the slides are static text or image slides, but where we want images to fade in/out we've created an SWF and dropped it into that page in InDesign.
    Trevor: Many thanks, just checked that and those settings are correct.
    Jeffrey: I just tried your advice but the problem remains.
    The strange thing is that if I press enter each time the slides (pages) move forward properly, but any touch on the mouse and the whole thing won't move... I'm going to look to see if I can drop in other video formats instead.

  • Can I create a wi-fi network on my macbook and still connect to the internet via an actual wifi point?

    Hi,
    I got TrakProDJ from the app store and installed it.
    It allows me to control a DJing software with my iPad by setting up a network via Wifi Symbol in Toolbar>Create Network...
    The problem with this is the network I create isn't based in the internet--it's just a wifi link between my laptop and iPad.
    I'm sure I'll get asked to play songs I'll have to look up on youtube, so how is it possible that I can maintain my wifi network connection on my macbook and create an access point for my iPad to use to communicate with my laptop (to control the DJing software)?
    I'll really appreciate any help I can get!
    Thank you!

    You cannot use both an ad-hoc network and a normal ap based one with any wireless device.  Your only solution is to use a wired Internet connection to do so on the laptop, that way you use that for Internet access and your wifi for the ad-hoc network the app requires.  You might want to contact the developer of that app and find out why they limit the setup to just an ad-hoc wifi setup.  Seems that if all it requires is just a network connection to the laptop, they could simply use any existing network connection as long as both devices can see each other on it.  Either that or also give the user the option to use Bluetooth for it if they have the higher version of hardware to support the necessary data exchange.

  • Creating PDFs using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro and can only see the first 10 pages in PDF even when the page numbers on bottom state 10 of 13 (or any number greater than 10).

    PDFs create great, unless they should be over 10 pages and then it appears the data was converted to PDF by viewing the page numbers at the bottom of the PDF but you can only view the first 10 pages in the pdf file.

    Hi stephaniec0103,
    Could you please let me know what exact dot version of Acrobat 9 and OS you are using.
    Have you tried repairing Acrobat from the Help menu?
    Acrobat 9 is an older version and incompatible with new OS versions, so I would suggest you to try using Acrobat XI (latest version) and check for the same.
    You may download a 30-day free trial version of Acrobat from the below mentioned link:
    Download Adobe Acrobat free trial | Acrobat XI Professional
    Let me know how it goes.

  • Getting an unwanted line when adding a swf file to dreamweaver and previewing it in the browser...

    I created a very simple swf with a box moving from stage right onto the stage.  It works fine when previewing the swf itself, but when previewing from dreamweaver there is a small line that only extends half way across the swf file (which happens to be the length of the box). I even made the box smaller than the stage but the line still appears at the bottom.

    Sometimes it helps to create a box in the background color that overlaps the edge of the stage. I had the same problem with a .swf that had a black background. The web page had a black background too but there was a white line at the bottom of the .swf when I previewed it in the browser. I added a black box to the background that went past the bottom of the stage and into the surrounding area and resaved it. The white line disappeared.

  • How can I stop the swf file from repeating on different web pages

    I have my entire website built and am using a flash
    navigation bar that also has a movie presentation attached to it. I
    uploaded it to every page in my site because it is required for
    navigation. My problem is that the movie plays every time you
    switch to a different page, I only want it to play once on the home
    page, and then just have the flash navigation work on the rest of
    them. I know that there is a way to use cookies to tell the
    computers IP address that is viewing the site not to replay the
    movie if it has already played within the specified time frame. But
    I am not very good with actually inputting code into flash, I am
    new to it. I have seen sample code on another website but I think
    it was referring to the wrong flash version, and it did not specify
    exactly where to put it in. Please help!

    Well I am actually using a template. And the flash video that
    was created is way beyond my ability. So I tried initially to
    separate the two, the intro video, and the navigation. But they are
    intertwined in a way that I do not understand. I do need to do the
    variable thing. I took a flash class in school, and my book does
    not touch anywhere close to this. I know its probably too
    complicated to explain through a forum, but can you recommend any
    resources online or books that would go more in depth with this
    sort if thing. If I can just see the way it works on another site,
    I know that I can do on mine.
    Thank you!!!
    :)

  • Can't convert the swf to MovieClip

    I have a problem where i have an as3 project loading in an
    AS3 SWF which contains another AS3 SWF containing a videoplayer,
    and i'm getting the type coercian fail error as above.
    TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert
    work_client_overlay@39e9e0b1 to flash.display.MovieClip.
    at WorkClient/externalLoadComplete()
    at Function/
    http://adobe.com/AS3/2006/builtin::apply()
    at MethodInfo-37()
    usually when i load in an SWF I put something like
    var mc:MovieClip - new MovieClip();
    mc = MovieClip(ev.currentTarget.content) //where
    ev.currentTarget is a loader
    Then i find that i can trigger functions inside the loaded
    SWF by using
    mc.SomeFunction();
    but this isn't working in this case and the only reason i can
    see is that there is a videoplayer loaded inside the SWf i'm now
    loading in....
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Greg

    I solved it. The main class of my loaded SWF needed to extend
    MovieClip and it was only extending Sprite.

  • Creating SCORM/AICC compliant content in Adobe Dreamweaver and Flash CS4

    Could anyone please advise if Dreamweaver and Flash CS4 is suitable for creating e learning SCORM/AICC compliant content?
    Many Thanks.

    I thought Captivate was only flash based projects. I am currently installing the trial version of the suite to investigate.
    I have read the features section of the suite and it states that Dreamweaver CS5 comes bundled with 'Domain specific html templates' that are 'instructionally sound' html templates for elearning course development. Are these not SCORM compliant?
    I am really just creating a very simple online course that contains no interactive activities or assessments and is very heavily text based with several supplied flash videos. Advice on what would be best to produce this in would be appreciated.
    Please note I have very little understanding of SCORM compliancy etc at this stage.
    Many Thanks.
