Load swf file in html based air?

1. The start window opens up a transperant window in an iframe.
2. Then the transperant window loads an external asp file from my server (content.asp) in an iframe.
3. In the content.asp file i try to load an swf file, but nothing is visible?
I use the following code in content.asp to show the swf file:
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="300" height="300">
<param name="movie" value="flashtest.swf" />
</object>
I have uploaded a testpage with this code to the server and it works fine, but not in the air application!?
What Im I doing wrong?

No, nothing with HTML.
I have 2 SWF applications. One is the Gallery, and the second is my Main Page.
My Main Page must integrate the Gallery module in one of its page.
The problem is when I try to integrate it, I think I must give de future loaded SWF some parameters like this :
(My Main SWF loading in HTML)
var so = new SWFObject("WebSite.swf", "flashcontent", "520", "700", "10", "#111111");
so.addParam("allowfullscreen","true");
so.addParam("allowScriptAccess","always");
so.addParam("menu","false");
so.addParam("wmode","opaque");
so.addParam("bgcolor","#000000");
so.setAttribute("id","flash");
so.write("flashcontent");
It was for the Main App. For my Gallery SWF I had to load it like this (in HTML) :
var so = new SWFObject("Gallerie.swf", "gallery", "249", "249", "10", "#111111");
so.addVariable("xml_path","Galerie/config.xml"); // this line is adding the path to the xml file make sure that it's name is xml_path
so.addParam("allowfullscreen","true");
so.write("flashcontent");
So at the beginning I had 2 different projects with an HTML page for each.
Now I wan't to directly integrate the Gallery SWF into the Main SWF. And as you have seen I must give it some parameters such as the "xml_path" and "allowfullscreen". This must be done in ActionScript 3 and I don't know how...
I think I have to use FlashVars but I don't know how. As I said before, I have tried using the loaderinfo.parameters, but it is in read-only...
Do you have an idea of how I can make it work ?

Loading swf files from an iPhone Air App

Although the faq says its possible ( http://bit.ly/gyxmCo ) I can't seem to load .swf files from my app.
There's no .AS code in the .swf file I'm trying to load.
PNG files load with no problems, swf's fail.
A working example would be appreciated instead of suggestions, I've spent the entire day trying out suggestions
regards,
Martijn

Because I can't see any library assets in an as2.0 file.
I've discovered that the swf fails to load as soon as you make a symbol 'export for actionscript'
probably because it will then create a class. So you can only load SWF's as simple pictures or animations, you cant use it as an asset library with multiple animations/images/sounds in it..
As for you other questions:
it doesnt matter if the file is local or on the web. same results
I created the swf file from a fla in CS4, and I'm compiling my air project that loads the swf with FlashDevelop.

How load swf file (flash 8) with adobe captivate 3 without enter the HTML?

How load swf file (flash 8) with adobe captivate 3 without enter the HTML?

Hi SaSQuaCh69247,
Issue 1 :- Select the SWF file in library, right click, and
select update.
Issue 2 :- Actually it could be valid for Issue 1 also. It
seems like SWF file you are trying to import, does some action
like, importing another swf or connecting to server on the first
frame itself. Captivate will try to play the first frame of SWF
when you import them. Try creating a keyframe with the stop action
as the first frame in your SWF, and see if you still have the
issue.
Issue 3 :- The approach I am mentioning over here is
generally the last approach which I will take in such scenerios,
but since you have already experimented a little, so try this.
Go to C:\Documents and Settings\<user name>\Application
Data\Adobe\Adobe Captivate
Rename captivate_v20.dat as captivate_v20_org.dat.
Restart Captivate Application.
thanks

HTML-based AIR app with transparent UI, shadows, etc.?

I'm debating on whether to use Flex or HTML/Ajax for a widget
in a project. If I make an HTML-based widget, is it possible to
have UI tricks like shadows and transparency, basically, NOT being
confined to a standard OS "box" window? Is this possible?
Thanks.

Yes it is possible to do this with an HTML-based AIR app.
However, since the visual elements will be HTML-elements, not
display objects, you can't use the Flash APIs for shadows and
transparency. Also, in a transparent window, SWF and PDF content in
HTML cannot be displayed.

Ipad i have load swf file but swf is not working proper(flex 4.6) but android is fine to work how

ipad i have load swf file but swf is not working proper(flex 4.6) but android is fine to work how

On the MBP, in iTunes, switch to Song view and enable the iCloud Status column by pulling down View > View options and selecting the option for "iCloud Status." Close the small window. Look for any tracks that have a status of "waiting." If you see several of them disable iTunes Match while holding down the Option key. Quit iTunes, wait a few seconds, then open it again and turn iTM back on. Let it compelete the scan. Wait until all tracks that are "waiting" have a status of either "matched" or "uploaded."
On the iPad, turn off iTunes Match then launch the Music app and let the contents clear out. Power cycle the iPad for good measure, then re-enable the service once all the tracks in iTunes have been processed.

How to create an xml to load swf files in sequence?

hello everyone
I'm new in web design... I know how to animate in flash, using timeline, frames, layers, twins and so on... But I want to move forward so I want to create a xml to load swf files in sequence and in loop. Each swf file has 8 seconds.You can see the example here in www.cm-seixal.pt.
I'm not a programmer but I understand how actionscript works... I hope you can help me
Cheers!
Ana

you can use the urlloader class to load your xml file. use the loader's complete event and the loader's data property to retrieve the data in your xml file.

Loaded swf file alignment

when i i design something in a file i have it aligned how i
want it, however when i load the page into another, although the
loader component is aligned, the content inside the loaded swf file
is no longer where it should be. why is that? how can i fix this?
i've just been

Also, remember that if you load an external SWF into another
movieClip, then the _root changes. The loaded SWF will no longer be
considered _root, unless you specify in frame 1:
this._lockroot = true;
this would be the issue of your miss-alignment, if you are
using ActionScript to align objects dynamically.
If you are not using actionscript for alignment, then
Mocaloca's suggestion should be the answer.

Flash in HTML-based AIR app: Urls do not open

Hy there
Like the title states, I have a HTML-based AIR application, which embeds flash. This flash opens Links which should eventually open the default browser. For this I previously had to set the following property in my AIR application:
window.htmlLoader.navigateInSystemBrowser = true;
Like this the URL calls were forwarded to outside the application and then opened the webbrowser. We had successfully tested this on various systems.
However, now there are users of our application, who report that on their system (Including WinXP Professional SP3!) the websites do not open at all. When clicking on a link inside the app nothing happens.
Their system:
Hardware: Lenovo IdeaPad S12
Windows XP Home Edition v2002 Service pack 3
IE 7 (Version 7.0.5730.13)
Firefox 3.5.7
I had a look at the system and things like switching the default browser or re-installing Firefox did not work. Unfortunately this is a critical issue and kinda urgent so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much.

Thank you for reporting back and letting us know.

Loaded SWF file CANNOT be made into button DIRECTLY?

I'm experiencing a problem which may have no solution, but I
would like to know why I cannot do what I want to do.
PROBLEM:
I am attempting to load in an external SWF file and once it
is loaded, I wish to directly make the new Sprite/MovieClip into a
button. However, the newly loaded Sprite/MovieClip seems to be
resistant to be made into a button DIRECTLY. I would like to know
why this is.
WORKAROUNDS:
Here are a couple of workarounds, but again I wish to know
why I cannot do what I want to do.
1) I place the new Sprite/MovieClip into an empty Sprite on
stage and make the once empty sprite into a button.
2) Construct the external SWF in such a way so i can refer to
a MovieClip within the SWF file and make that MovieClip into a
button.
CODE EXAMPLE:
I am loading a SWF file thru a Loader and then taking the
loaded SWF file and adding it to an existing sprite on the stage. I
then attempt to make a button out of the newly loaded swf file, but
it fails to be clickable.
The following is some quick code to illustrate my problem. I
already have workarounds in place, so please let me know WHY the
following code is impossible. thanks!
==============================================================================

There should be no problem with what you are trying to do. If
you want someone to look at what you've done, you have to be
careful to show that and not possibly errant code because that is
the substance of your post and what you requested be looked at--we
cannot guess what you may have done wrong in setting things up or
for code that you do not show.
I tried your code before posting my response and it worked
fine except for your error with the COMPLETE aspect. I did not
utilize any objects for loading things into, so I suggest you look
there.

CPU/Memory Usage increases when loading SWF files in AIR.

Hi,
We face the below mentioned problem. Would be great if someone could help us.
Due to problems with uploading the attachment here, please send a email to the following email-id ([email protected]) and I shall send the attachment in response.
CPU/Memory usage increases drastically while moving the SWC components and loading the SWF Files.
"Problem Description" - On executing the sample application, a window with multiple objects is shown. The loaded SWC components in flex consume too much Memory and CPU cycles. This is visible in TaskManager. On dragging one of the object, CPU / memory usage increases drastically.
"Steps to Reproduce" -
Draggable window is placed at the bottom in the sample application with Text indication.
Drag the indicated window.
"Actual Result" - System's CPU usage increasing drastically around 50% to 60 %.
"Expected Result" - Drastical increase in memory\CPU should not occur.
"Any Workarounds" - No"
Thanks in advance.

You can control your external swf from your main.swf in the following method:
loadswf(clips[0]);
function loadswf(tmp:String):void{
    passedString=tmp;
    ldr= new Loader();
    ldr.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, progressListener);
    ldr.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, swfLoaded);
    ldr.load(new URLRequest(animPath+tmp));
    function progressListener (e:ProgressEvent):void{
        ploader.visible=true;
    function swfLoaded(e:Event):void {
        mcExt = e.target.content as MovieClip;
        ldr.contentLoaderInfo.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, swfLoaded);
        mcExt.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,onEnterfn);
        ploader.visible=false;
        addChild(mcExt);
function onEnterfn(e:Event):void{
    var num:int=mcExt.currentFrame;
    switch(passedString){
        case clips[0]:
            if (num==1) mcExt.play();
            if (num==9) {
               mcExt.skipmc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,skipfn);
                function skipfn(e:MouseEvent):void{
                    mcExt.stop();
                   mcExt.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,onEnterfn);
                    gotoAndStop("help");
            if (num==mcExt.totalFrames){
               mcExt.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,onEnterfn);
                gotoAndStop("help");
            break;

Load SWF file in main SWF with parameters

Hello everybody,
I recently got a new flash Application which is a Photo Gallery.
This App is made of multiple folders (source files), a FLA file, a SWF with its javascript SWFObject and an Html page which instantiate this App with some parameters (size, config file path, ...).
It needs an XML file to find all the Photos it displays, to do it I need to configure my application in the HTML Page and give it the "xml_path" :
var so = new SWFObject("index.swf", "gallery", "249", "249", "10", "#111111");
so.addVariable("xml_path","load/config.xml"); // this line is adding the path to the xml file make sure that it's name is xml_path
so.addParam("allowfullscreen","true");
so.write("flashcontent");
By the way, I have a second application, the WebSite, which have to display the Gallery SWF in its "Gallery" page.
Here is how I do it at the moment (in ActionScript3) :
var swfRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("C:/......../Galerie/index.swf");
var swfLoader:Loader = new Loader();
//Charge le SWF Galerie dans le SWF Site
swfLoader.load(swfRequest, context);
container1.addChild(swfLoader);
//Positionne le SWF
swfLoader.x=10;
swfLoader.y=120;
It successfully loads the Gallery application but It shows an error telling me it doesn't find the XML configuration file... In the HTML file I simply had to write the "so.addVariable("xml_path","load/config.xml");" to tell where the XML file is...
So, my question is : How can I integrate my SWF application giving it some parameters like above, in Action Script 3?
Thank you ,
Patrick

No, nothing with HTML.

My Main Page must integrate the Gallery module in one of its page.
The problem is when I try to integrate it, I think I must give de future loaded SWF some parameters like this :

so.addParam("menu","false");
so.addParam("wmode","opaque");
so.addParam("bgcolor","#000000");
so.setAttribute("id","flash");
so.write("flashcontent");
It was for the Main App. For my Gallery SWF I had to load it like this (in HTML) :
var so = new SWFObject("Gallerie.swf", "gallery", "249", "249", "10", "#111111");

Problem in loading SWF file

Hi All,
I am facing a problem in file loading. I have a file
https://shopping.easycite.com/admin/tree/main.swf and in that file
loading another file named “editNodeFome.swf”. To load
"editNodeFome.swf" i am using related path. But the file is not
loading.
mcLoader.loadClip("editNodeFome.swf", _root.tempForm_mc);
Can any one help me to find out the solution?

show your mcl code or use trace(mcLoader) to confirm it
exists along with _root.tempForm_mc. and make sure editNodeFome.swf
is in the same directory as the html file that embeds
main.swf.
