Linking to Movie Frames with URL Variables

Is there a way to link directly to a specific keyframe of a
SWF using code in the URL? We have build a Flash portfolio
slideshow for a number of artists and we would like to link to the
main page for each artist within the main movie. So the URL might
look something like this
http://mysite.com?artist=joebob.
As an example, we would want this URL to point to Joe Bob's
portfolio page instead of the home page for mysite.com. Joe Bob's
page would be on the 200th frame of the main movie, for
example.

Display all database results with URL variable?

Hi,
I am using PHP MySQL
I have a database that is Alphabetically ordered. I am trying to create a dynamic page that will only show A, B, C, ... and so on. I do this by Creating links named after the letters in the Alphabet. I have a recordset that filters the table using a URL variable that uses Type. Unfortunately when I click on the link it only displays the first record that contains an A. Not all the records that contain A.
For example:
I have a link that is just "A". Its link is ?Type=A. In the database table their are 3 records that contain A under Type, but when I click on it only one record containing A is displayed. I hope you are following this.
If you want a direct reference to what I am doing go to:
http://cwhazzoo.com/gamelinktesting.php
This is how my database is designed:
ID (primary key)
Name
Letter
0001
Example A
A
I want to be able to show only the selected letter of records using only one page. Thanks!

>Should I use the repeat region?
Yep. That's what it's for.

How can I link 1 movie file with several logic projects?

Hi all,
I've been working on the music for a film with a colleague of mine and are sharing logic files via dropbox. 72 cues had to be altered for logisitical reason to work in someone else's studio for the final mix. Since I had a copy of the movie on my machine and my colleague had a copy on his we thought that if we put our movie into the root directory of our logic project's folder then the movie would automatically load up with the projects after we shared them via dropbox. We checked to make sure that both movies had the same filename. Unfortunately this did not work and we had to then reassociate 72 cues individually with each logic project. With such limited time to prepare the cues for the final mix this really took too much time.
Is there any way in logic (9.1.8) to associate 1 movie file with a number of logic projects quickly, without having to open up the project and select open movie?
kind regards
/mischa

Seems to me that if you both had the movie file in the same location on both of your drives (eg on Macintosh HD at root level, in no other folder) then all the project files would search for this common path and find the file.
The problem arises when there is even a small difference between path names.
Unfortunately, this won't help you at this point as all the project files already are associated with unique file paths for the movie. By now, you've probably already done it one by one - but maybe for next time....?
There's no bulk or quick way to do this.

Link to specific frame from URL

I have an embedded flv.
I want to create links (html, xml, etc) to all me to jump to
specific frames of my embedded flv.
Anyone know how to do this? I'm very new to flash, so
specific examples would be very helpful.

Losing url variable after logging into session

I have a coldfusion helpdesk application that is secured with a application.cfm login system. Once a ticket is submitted it sends out an email with a link to view the ticket. The link contains a url variable to link it back to the correct ticket. If the user is not logged in, the url variable is stripped off after the login process. Is there any way to prevent this?

From your description, at least 2 requests are involved. One request takes the unauthenticated user to the login page. Together with URL variables. I would imagine that a second request then takes him - without URL variables! - from the login form to the form's action page, where his credentials are validated.
If so, then that is the expected behaviour. You could change it as follows. Enable session management, and implement the following on the login page:
<cfloop collection="#url#" item="myVar">
<cfset session[myVar] = url[myVar]>
</cfloop>
This results in ColdFusion storing the value of each URL variable as a variable of the same name in the session scope. Thus, the values of URL.x, URL.y, etc. will be stored, respectively, as SESSION.x, SESSION.y, etc.. You could then transfer the respective values from session back into URL scope in the links in later pages.

Can you pass an array URL variable

Hi,
Doing a form which I want to validate, then re-display with
error messages and the keyed data still in place should there be
errors, or go onto a second form if all ok.
I have tried to use <form
action="<?=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>" but as the various
outcomes result in different screens I can't see how to do it
without having reams of duplicate code - I couldn't make it work
satisfactorily anyway.
So I decided to do it in two stages - form (user screen) + a
separate validation routine which passes validation results back if
there are errors by calling the first screen but with URL variables
to trigger process variations or go onto screen 2 if all ok.
But I'm struggling with this .. two questions:
i) Ideally I would like to use a session variable to pass
actual error messages back to screen one in the event of errors but
if I undertand things correctly (which is by no means certain)
$S_Session is already an associatve array so it wouldn't be so easy
to just add a variable number of messages to it and then know what
you are unpacking elsewhere ... do you know what I mean?
Perhaps if I give you my second question it may help
illustrate what I'm going on about in part 1
ii) The way I have tried to do it is to set it up as an array
($ERRORS) in the validation module and then added a text string
each time I hit a specific error. The hope was that I could then
send this back via the URL for further process but I'm getting
syntax problem so maybe this is not possible .... a brief example
Input Form php:
$ERRORS = array();
$ERRORS = $_GET['errors']
if (sizeof($ERRORS) > 0) {
echo "<p class=\"val_err_hdr\"> *** Validation
error(s) - please correct the entries and try again ***
</p>";
blah blah
Validation php:
$ERRORS=array();
if(!$loginFoundUser) {
$ERRORS[] = "This e-mail address entered has already been
registered on our database - if you have already registered you
can"; }
header("Location: input.form.php?errors=$ERRORS");
When I run this I get a syntax error 'unexpected T_IF' on the
'sizeof'' function condition.
Any help much appreciated.

OK, quite common.
> I have tried to use <form

Avoid short open tags, they are unreliable. Use "<?php
print " instead
of just "<?=" to be safe and independent from the server
configuration.
>but as the

What's a "screen" in this case? Just another part of the form
or a
completely different page?

Don't use URL parameters in such a form processing scenario.
Use a
session instead, that's what they are for. The length of URLs
is limited
and there are things you simply don't want to pass between
pages, but
keep on the server instead.

The $_SESSION array itself is strictly associative, the used
indexes
must be strings or the serialization of the session data will
fail.
But if course you can always do things like this:
$_SESSION['errors'] = array();
$_SESSION['errors'][] = 'something went wrong';

As said above - use the session instead.
> Input Form php:
> $ERRORS = array();
> $ERRORS = $_GET['errors']
There's a ';' missing at the EOL (this causes the error you
mentioned
below).
Just a naming hint: Variables should not be named all
uppercase (except
for the predefined superglobal arrays). Such names should be
reserved
for constants. The most common style looks like this:
myNiceFunction()
$myNiceVariable
MY_NICE_CONSTANT
> if (sizeof($ERRORS) > 0) {
if (!empty($_SESSION['errors'])) {
> header("Location: input.form.php?errors=$ERRORS");
The Location URI must be absolute including scheme and
hostname. This is
required by the HTTP spec:
header("Location:
http://$_SERVER[HTTP_HOST
But I'm still not sure why you would need this redirect. The
entire
handling of a form (validation, processing) can be done on a
single
page. Only if the processing succeeds, you might want to
redirect to
some result page.

URL Variables used to set the source property for the VIDEO COMP.

Can you take a url variable and have that variable be the value for the source parameter of the video playback component in flash CS4 or CS5?
Example:
the url with url variable: http://www.mydomain.com/videos/videoplayer.cfm?vplayer=videofile1
the actionscript 3.0
var videoFile:String = [who do I get the url variable's value here?]
myVideoPlayer.source = videoFile +".mp4"
in the end the file that should be playing in the video player is: videofile1.mp4
Thanks.

Either
A) Using ExternalInterface, call a Javascript function that returns window.location.search
B) Use Javascript to create FlashVars from window.location.search

Capturing a dynamic swf with url parameters?

Hi,
I'm wondering if it's possible for users to capture an swf
with URL variables?
for example ->
www.somesite.com/foo.swf?param1="value"&param2=value"
normal swf rippers will catch only the base "naked" swf, but
is there a way to fully capture the whole flash object after it has
rendered the parameters?
(for example, if it's an ad, the full ad with all the
elements will be captured)
this can help me to quickly generate demo stand-alone
instances for some apps i'm building, instead of compiling them
separately

oops...sorry for double posting..

GO URL with Session Variable

I want to use interaction between two reports in different dashboards, which do not share the same tables but the same values.
When clicking on column A values in Report A, I want to create action link with option to open Report B, presenting column B, which is filtered by value A.
I also want the prompts in Report B to present the value A, as it was selected by the user on Report A.
I thought about using GOURL in action link to specific URL. I manage to open Report B, but it is not filtered by A.
How can I transfer the value A in the URL? how should I add the value A into '&val1=XXX'?
I also want to transfer other prompt values (e.g. val2 of col2) from A to B. I set this prompt value to session variable, but how can I add it in the GOURL syntax of '&val2=XXX'?

Frames with link to Struts do not render before mouse over in IE 7.0?

Hi
We have troubles with frames with link to Struts, which do not render before mouse over in IE 7.0? The application works fine with Firefox 2.0 and Internet Explorer 6.0, we have analyzed the cause to be whenever
you refer to a struts 1.0 action in your frames, you'll see the frames underneath.
Does anyone have a solution to this?
<frameset cols="168,*" border="0">
<frameset rows="76,*" border="0">

</frameset>
<noframes>

</noframes>When you open the application, the frame is blank, the pages render only when you move the mouse inside the mainFrame area!
This is a very odd behavior.

Runtime error in linking with static variables....

Hi,
I am building a shared library which includes a compiled object generated from a class containing the static variables only and also I have another version of same class with same & some new static variables in it and using that to generate another shared library. Now when I tried to run a program
which links with both the library it core dumps when it tries to return from the program i.e when it finishes.
Can someone please help me explain why my program is behaving like that?? Can duplicate inculsion of static variables in different scope can cause problem ?? How can this be avoided ?
Also please be advised that the class with static variables gets generated at the compile time using a script which uses a DTD whose version (specification) can be different in both the libraries therefore I can't just seperate the common stuff into one class and specific into another.
Thanks.
Rajeev.

Not to worry...found the answer in another post. Seems like patches need to applied to the OS.

Hi, Find the following code which can help you to invoke the browser. Put these code in the action performed method of your button.
Process browserprocess = null;
//browserPath represents the exe path of Internet Explorer
String browserPath = "C:\\Program Files\\Plus!\\Microsoft Internet\\Iexplore.exe";
String path = "c:/intellidocresources/demographics/path.PROPERTIES";
String filePath = "www.google.com;
String temp = browserPath + " " + filePath;
browserprocess = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(temp);
Bye.

Removing frames from .MOV file with QT Pro

I edited a .MOV file with QT Pro by selecting garbage at back end of file and using "Cut". I saved file. File now shows the correct content (w/o garbage at end), but file is still the same size. How do I actually remove content to make smaller physical file?

While you have your movie in the QT player Select an IN point ( pressing "i") , where you whant to begin the selection and an OUT point where you whant it to end. Press "Comand+X" or go to Edit/Cut. And the selection will be removed.
