Link to external URL from flash site

Is there any way to link to an external URL from your flash
site without having the flashplayer prompt you to change your
settings and allow access to that page? (this only applies to swfs
viewed through a browser)
the only way around this i've found isn't very useful - you
have to put a small xml file on the host server where the page you
want to link to is located. i seriously doubt every site you want
to link to will allow you to put an xml file on their host server
just so you can link to their page. the code in the xml file just
tells flashplayer that the site you are trying to access is safe.
it's called crossdomain.xml
anyone have an answer?
thanks!

no it doesn't. getURL() causes no security issues unless you
try to open the html locally and (try to) access something on the
internet.
unless your "flash site" is your local computer there is no
security issue. if your local computer is an internet server, you
just need to set the security settings for your local file and give
it permission to access the internet zone.

  • Navigate to external URL from secured APEX server

    NOTE I am using the internal Oracle APEX server to host my application, so it may be possible that you will have to be an Oracle employee with the same access, or using a similar setup, in order to respond. Even if you are not, if you feel inclined to "take a swing" at it, keep this in mind.
    Hi all,
    I am using the internal APEX server at oracle to host an application (Application Express 4.0.2.00.07). I have other, NON-APEX applications hosted on other servers within the Oracle firewall.
    On page 0 of the APEX application (which, as you may know, usually displays as the "header" section of every other page in the application) I have created a select list of the other projects and their associated URLs as well as a "Go" button, so users that want to navigate to the other applications can do so from this application. Since page 0 does not seem to allow the creation of standard branch items (please correct me otherwise), I have created a process on that page triggered by the "Go" button. The process currently contains the following code:
    begin
    apex_application.g_unrecoverable_error := true;
    htp.p('<script language="JavaScript">
    window.open (:P0_PRODUCT_PAGES); <!-- :P0_PRODUCT_PAGES being the URL of the selected non-APEX application -->
    </script>');
    end;
    That code currently replaces the existing page with a blank page and the associated URL is "https://apex.oraclecorp.com/pls/apex/wwv_flow.accept". I am assuming this means that APEX was looking for an application ID and/or page and did not get it so it "stopped" at this page.
    I am unaware if there are any settings on the APEX server, DB,or associated web server preventing me from navigating outside of APEX once I am running the hosted application.
    I would like to launch another properly-sized (default) browser window rather than replace the existing window pointing to the URL for the selected application.
    I have also tried using the owa.util code to try to generate the proper URL but was likewise unsuccessful.
    NOTE: I am not looking for different ways to do this by changing server parameters, settings, etc. since I do not have server rights to do this. Additionally, due to time constraints, I would prefer not to be drawn in to a discussion of the comparisons and/or benefits of owa.util or javascript over the other for navigating to an external URL from within APEX, etc. (I'm not trying to be a "punk", but I AM under the gun to resolve this with very limited time). In light of this, please indicate if you have a working option to do this under similar conditions that I can implement quickly. I have done much research within the forums and Googled extensively for information from outside sources but have not yet found something that will provide the proper results.
    If you are an oracle employee and wish to contact me directly, please email me at [email protected]
    Crossing my fingers and hoping someone has done this before.
    Many thanks in advance; your useful contribution will actually contribute to lessening the world's INSOMINA factor considerably (mostly mine). ;)

    >
    Opening a URL in a new tab or window has to happen in the browser, without submitting the page. The server doesn't know about browser windows. Use:
    onchange="window.open(this.value);" in the HTML Form Element Attributes property of <tt>P0_PRODUCT_PAGES</tt> (making the "Go" button unnecessary), or, if the "Go" button is required to match the LAF:
    onclick="window.open($v('P0_PRODUCT_PAGES'));"in the button Attributes property, ensuring the button is a template button including the <tt>#BUTTON_ATTRIBUTES#</tt> substitution string, e.g.
    <input type="button" value="#LABEL#" #BUTTON_ATTRIBUTES# />Ensure that absolute URLs are used in the <tt>P0_PRODUCT_PAGES</tt> where necessary, specifying the correct scheme for the site, so that you are not trying to go to <tt>{noformat}https://apex.oraclecorp.com/pls/apex/www.google.com{noformat}</tt> for example:
    f?FOO:BAR:&APP_SESSION.    // other APEX app hosted on apex.oraclecorp.com sharing the same authentication scheme
    https://foo.oraclecorp.com // other secured internal site
    http://www.google.com      // unsecured external site

  • Do view life time and view recent property apply for external URL from crawling?

    Hi All,
    I wonder that do viewlifetime count and viewrecents apply for the external URL from the crawler?
    I saw it does work for local SharePoint URL but not too sure for the external URL.
    And in that case, is it possible to sort the search result by viewlifetime/viewrecent for both Local SharePoint Sites and External Site from crawler?
    Best Regards,
    Andy

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you want to use viewliftime and viewrecent property when crawing external URL.
    Per my knowleage, the viewlifetime and viewrecent property does not apply for external URL from crawling.
    In my environment, I can edit the refinement panel in search center page to display viewlifetime and viewrecent when I crawl SharePoint Sites.
    However, when I crawl external site, in the search center page, I cannot get any information about the result items.
    Here is a great blog about how to crawl external site for your reference:

  • Open external URL from Homepage Framework

    Hi,
    We are building our new ESS functionality with Homepage Framework and I need to create some links to external URL. I would like them to open in a different window with no portal header at all. They should appear as services listed in the menu area. While this seems easy, I had tried several things with no success.
    First, I created an URL iview in portal content. I marked the option "launch in external window" to Open in a separate window.
    I create a resource that pointed to this Iview, and linked resource with a "java webdynpro" service, service with subarea and subarea with area. The service link is displayed correctly but it is always opened in the portal page, not in a different one.  Have i forgotten any parameter that would make this work?
    A second approach was to create a resource that includes the URL and an associated service, marked as "Direct URL launched in separate window".
    This succeds in calling the URL in a differeny window but it adds some strange parameters at the end. So instead of calling http://www.google.com it calls  something like http://www.google.com?sap-ext-sid=2J*HeTVW7295w3QWBZhQow--

    While some pages can ignore those extra parameters, in other cases, this causes a "page not found" error.
    Any ideas on how to solve this problem?
    Many thanks in advance to all.

    Hi Daniel,
    Define Resource: you have to mention all the below details
    1. object name :http:// (url ).
    2.window name: "".
    3.window Property : target="_blank".
    and also check define service:
    service type: Direct url launched in a seperate window.
    And assign resouce to service -
    >
    service to sub area--->
    sub area to area---->
    area to areagroup.
    hope it helps............,
    Thanks,

  • Opening an external URL from the Web UI

    Hello,
    I want to use the Web UI in order to open an external URL.
    I know it can be done easily using JavaScript, but the URL is generated from one of the page controller methods, and I want to open it directly from there.
    I know that there's the Window Manager in the Component Controller, that can open popup windows, but none of it's methods receive an external URL.
    So how can I open an external URL from the Web UI methods?
    Thanks,
    Udi.

    Hi,
    you can use the Trnsaction launcher with OP.
    in the window you create an OP_X
    with the code
      data: lv_navigation type ref to     if_crm_ui_navigation_service.
      lv_navigation = cl_crm_ui_navigation_service=>get_instance( me ).
      lv_navigation->navigate( iv_link_id = 'ZTO_X' ). "runtime you create the TO_X nevigation"
    in your implamentation class of the view you add a preotected method OP_TO_X with the code
       data:
        lr_window type ref to cl_bsp_wd_window.
      lr_window = me->view_manager->get_window_controller( ).
      lr_window->call_outbound_plug( iv_outbound_plug = 'TO_X'
                                     iv_data_collection = iv_data_collection ).
    and you call to that method from the EVENT_HANDLER you want.
    Amit.

  • Linking to external URL using POST from a button in APEX

    APEX Experts
    Does anyone know how to link to an external URL using POST rather than GET behind an APEX button? I'm pretty sure there must be a javascript call but I'm a real newbie to both APEX and Javascript.
    Also does anyone know why APEX decodes an encoded URL before sending it out and how to stop it?
    Thanks
    Deborah

    I did something similar recently but it was in .NET.
    Hopefully someone else here can help you do with Apex and Oracle. I am new to both.
    To POST instead of GET is not as easy as it sounds.
    What I did was open a new window where I outputted a dynamically created form. I would think that you would do that by using the pl/sql web toolkit to call a procedure and output the form using htp.p. You may also be able to do it with Apex (I think they are built using the same tech).
    Basically, your proc would look something like this:
    htp.p('<html><head>');
    htp.p('</head><body onload="document.FORM.submit();">');
    htp.p('<form name="FORM" method="POST" action="www.UrlToPostTo.com" >');
    htp.p('<input name="PostVar" type="hidden" value="' || MyValueToPost || '">');
    htp.p('</form></body></html>');
    So, it creates a html page with a form. When the page loads, it runs the javascript to submit the form to the other site. You can add in as many post items as you need. I marked them as hidden so that the user only sees a blank page briefly before the form is submitted.
    I am sure there is more to it than that, but it gives the general outline of how to post to another site dynamically. Hopefully someone else can fill in the rest.

  • Create link to help topic from Flash file

    We have started using Flash to develop our online learning
    modules. So far they have been stand alone modules accessed from an
    internal web site, published as .EXEs. Our latest Flash module is
    related to a system for which we have an HTML help file. We'd like
    to embed the Flash module in the help file b/c we want a link in
    the Flash module to open a specific help topic.
    I can get individual .SWFs into the help file but these Flash
    modules are more complex, using many .SWFs for navigation, the TOC,
    the frame, and for each interaction. In other words, the main .SWF
    (or .EXE) calls many other .SWFs as the user navigates through the
    module.
    If I can't get the Flash module into the help file, and I can
    only link to it as an external file, can a link from within a .SWF
    in the Flash module open a specific help topic in the .CHM?
    Any other ideas?
    Thanks for your help,
    SueM2

  • Link to external menu from several pages

    I've read David Powers' reply to Bryan Trent in
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/10.0_Using/WSEE4C0148-A6F4-4bf5-9DEF-CE06AB026214a .html
    about how to create a single external drop-down (Spry) menu
    and link to it from several pages. I don't have a good overall
    picture of what's going on. In particular, I'm still confused by
    the last 4 lines under step 8.
    1. I'm using CS3. Do these steps apply exactly the same to
    CS3 as CS4?
    2. What extension should I use for the saved external menu
    file? Is it a .js file?
    3. When I select Insert > Server-Side Include, I don't get
    a file type of include, just "all files"
    Dreamweaver inserts the following line: <!--#include
    file="menu.include" -->
    4. Where on the page should I insert whatever line is
    supposed to call the menu?
    Thank you for help or references,

    DOC1        http://www.xsfd.wer/show?...
    DOC2        http://www.ssdfs.ver/show?
    In oac0 (definition content rep) there is an subtyp called "URL", looks like it could be this kind of rep? All  solutions and hints I found where based on DMS/KPRO not ArchiveLink. I don't want to use link to external Document via GOS.
