PayPal button action works in preview but not when published

Hi!
Any thoughts as to why this works correctly in CS5 publish preview but when I publish it I either get no action or (XP comupter) or a blank page (vista). Any thoughts or insight would be appreciated. Also, I'm new to flash and here's the button action:
on (release) {
        //create the LoadVars that will hold our paypal information
        var paypal = new LoadVars();
        //specify the business, amount of the item, shipping, etc.
        paypal.cmd="_xclick";
        paypal.upload="1";
      paypal.business="[email protected]";
        paypal.currency_code="USD";
        paypal.amount="275.00";
        //paypal.handling = "0";
        //paypal.no_shipping = "0";
        paypal.item_name="One Session";
        //added
        //paypal.lc="GB";
        paypal.bn="PP-BuyNowBF";
        //paypal.no_note="1";
        //send our information to PayPal, including all the optional variables we have collected from customer
         paypal.send("https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr","_blank","POST");
Thanks!

Hi Robert,
as far as I understand your post, you are missing some kind of "button-artwork" in the published file, but do not report a problem with the "action" that the script should perform.
My guess would be that it will be hard to help you without having a better understanding what your trying to achive and how (are you using a prebuilt component, or did you build the button fron scratch etc....)
It might be even necessary to have a look at the fla itself.

Works in preview but not when published in captivate 8?

My youtube widget used in captivate 8 works just fine in the preview, but when published there's nothing where the video should be, any idea as to why?

Masking works in preview but not when published

I am dynamically loading higher-res images into a movie clip
that
correspond to the place in a 360 degree rotation the main
clip is at,
then resizing that movie clip to "zoom" the image. Since I
don't want
to overflow the whole screen, I've created another movie clip
that
masks the loader movie clip.
When I preview the flash file, it works perfectly. When I
publish the
file, the mask doesn't get applied. Thoughts?
zoom_btn.onPress = function(){
if(iszoomed == false){
loadMovie("zoomimages/" + Math.floor((_currentframe-4)/3) +
"big.jpg", image_mc);
stop();
zoom_btn.onRelease = function(){
if(iszoomed == false){
Loading progress loop begins, extra code
removed...
if (pcLoaded >= 99){loader_mc._alpha = 0;
image_mc._visible = true;
myMask_mc._visible = true;
image_mc.setMask(myMask_mc);
.....Loading progress loop ends}
iszoomed = true;
}

Load swf works in Publish Preview but not when published

Hi Folks,
I having a problem where im trying to load two 1mb SWF movies into my Flash piece. It works fine in Publish Preview but not when I finally publish. I get this error in IE:
SecurityError: Error #2000: No active security context.
I have googled around and there is some talk online of a hack where by you get a timeout to overcome this. However im not so technical do I dont really know how to do this to my code in AS3. My code at the moment is below.
Any help would be much appreciated and rewarded with Karma
movieClip_12.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToLoadUnloadSWF_9);
var fl_Loader_9:Loader;
//This variable keeps track of whether you want to load or unload the SWF
var fl_ToLoad_9:Boolean = true;
function fl_ClickToLoadUnloadSWF_9(event:MouseEvent):void
if(fl_ToLoad_9)
fl_Loader_9 = new Loader();
fl_Loader_9.load(new URLRequest("search.swf"));
addChild(fl_Loader_9);
else
fl_Loader_9.unload();
removeChild(fl_Loader_9);
fl_Loader_9 = null;
// Toggle whether you want to load or unload the SWF
fl_ToLoad_9 = !fl_ToLoad_9;
movieClip_14.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToLoadUnloadSWF_10);
var fl_Loader_10:Loader;
//This variable keeps track of whether you want to load or unload the SWF
var fl_ToLoad_10:Boolean = true;
function fl_ClickToLoadUnloadSWF_10(event:MouseEvent):void
if(fl_ToLoad_10)
fl_Loader_10 = new Loader();
fl_Loader_10.load(new URLRequest("refunds.swf"));
addChild(fl_Loader_10);
else
fl_Loader_10.unload();
removeChild(fl_Loader_10);
fl_Loader_10 = null;
// Toggle whether you want to load or unload the SWF
fl_ToLoad_10 = !fl_ToLoad_10;

I think this is either a problem with my site preLoader or my external .swf Loader. I was checking out the bandwith profiler and saw something weird and I wondered if anyone could explain...I've added a picture. I have a blank frame on only my actions layer to export classes to and it seems that frame 2 is "bleeding" into frame 1. Could this be my problem? Why would this happen? Thanks

SWF plays in preview but not when published

I have seen similar issues posted but none dealing with this
precise problem. I have two SWFs, one of which loads at the end of
the other. When SWF 1 is played back in Flash or when published in
HTML format, SWF2 plays as is should. When SWF is exported to
another program (e.g. Frontpage or Ektron, CMS), SWF2 will not
play. Interestingly, when SWF2 is exported to the other program on
its own, it plays fine so font support is not an issue.
I have also tried altering the level in the LoadMovieNum
script (0, 1, 2) as well as republishing both SWFs from the
original FLA file. So far zippo.
Any ideas??

At least on my side it only plays the first video and does not progress. There are twenty-five videos after this, they are all very short but they progress. Is this progressing for you? Perhaps it is my computer if so. Please let me know.
Thanks again,
Mark.

Site works in preview but not when uploaded to the web

I have been trying to add a link from my website to another project I have been doing, a mini site made with Flash.
I wanted the link to open up a new window with the animation playing inside, and it works perfectly when I use "preview in safari" within dreamweaver, but now I've uploaded to the web it just opens up a blank window.
This is the url for the homepage:
http://kayleighthompson.com/
and the link is the ActiveAid button at the bottom of the navigation list.
If anyone knows how to get this working I'd be very grateful! It's for a uni project due in this afternoon :S

I think you may be having a problem with how Flash is displayed. The Flash on the first page doesn't display in IE8... although it does in Chrome. The second page doesn't display in either. Your link is correct. I checked that.
Wish I could be more helpful, I'm having the same issue with IE and DW CS4 myself, and can't figure it out.
This may help: http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/wiki/documentation
Good luck! Let me know if you figure it out.

Query works in preview, but not when added under a Query Group

Hello Experts-
I'm trying to use this query as one of the options under the drop down on the Supplier Search under the Supplier Management.
Error message:
while trying to invoke the method com.sap.odp.comp.query.QueryParamValue.getPromptParamDef() of a null
object loaded from local variable 'paramValue' while trying to invoke the method
com.sap.odp.comp.query.QueryParamValue.getPromptParamDef() of a null object
loaded from local variable 'paramValue'
The query itself is complicated, but it works fine when executed under preview.
Wondering if any one has ever seen this behavior and knows of any typical causes?
Thanks,
Mike

Thanks for the offer, Vignesh.
Sorry, I'm currently having trouble duplicating it, but next time it happens I'll try to get some screenshots.
I have narrowed it down to blank values in optional string fields when the query loads. I fixed (kind of) the ones I was having trouble with by rearranging the filter parameters so there would not be blanks.
Thanks again,
Mike

Spy Collapsible Pane Works in Preview, but not when I put it online

Hello,
I am trying insert collapsible panels at
this
site. They work fine in all the browsers when I preview them, but
they do not work online. I am very new to dreamweaver and could use
any help. Thanks

You haven't uploaded SpryCollapsiblePanel.js.
Another problem with your page is that you have applied
styles to your
library items. This results in style blocks being embedded in
the body
of the page, which creates invalid code. You should use
Design Time
Style Sheets to apply styles to library items (press F1 and
search the
help system to find out how to use them).

ah ha sorted - seems to have something to do with relative

has done the trick.

Website displays fine in Preview but not when 'Published' to BC

Hi
I've posted this question twice in the Adobe Muse discussion forums and had zero response so hopefully people with more experience form the BC perspective might be able to shed some light on this.
Basically I have a subscription to Muse and with that the ability to host one site with Business Catalyst. When checking the first site I designed I'd use 'Preview in Browser' and the site occasionaly displayed incorrectly, so I changed my habits to publishing the work-in-progress site to the BC url with this current site.
Unfortunately there are multiple display problems with doing this; the two images below show the difference between 'Publish' to the BC domain and 'Preview site in browser'.
I've cleared the cache of the browser multiple times and used both Firefox and Safari and the problem still remains. I'm assuming it's a problem with Business Catalyst?
Does anyone have a solution for this? Has data become corrupted in BC, and if so is there a way of 'flushing' the data held on the BC site clean to start from scratch?
Would really appreciate some help here as it's impossible to show my client the current state of the site
Thanks in advance
Phil

Hi Liam
Tried it in Safari and Firefox (I'm on a Mac), cleared the cache and still was getting issues.
http://httpwiles06businesscatalystcom.businesscatalyst.com/clients.html
If you go to the client page there I'm getting the images behing strangely like the top pic I posted, also the top type image has moved over.
i set up a subdomain on my own site to use as a test space for this client site and it works perfectly; that's on
http://martinedwardstest.phunction.net/
Appreciate any fedback, opinions or help on what might or might not be wrong.
Cheers

Button hyperlinks work in project preview but not in published .swf

Captivate 6, button hyperlinks work in project preview but not in published .swf, the cursor changes the “the hand” but the hyperlink does not redirect.
Any ideas?
Like I said my buttons work great in preview mode after publishing, one click and the PDF opens in a new browser window. Open the project through the published .swf files and the links will not work.
Using Captivate 6 on WIndows 7

Hello,
Welcome to Adobe Forums.
Once your project published, add the .swf file in Flash Global Setting :
1) Right Click on the content (Published .swf file) and click on Global Settings
2) Go to Advanced Tab and Click on Trusted Location Settings (Scrool down to see this button)
3) Click on "Add" button and then "Add file", browse for the Captivate 6 published file and click on OK
4) Launch the .htm file again (Location where Captivate publish your project)
Hope this helps !!
Thanks,
Vikram

Wifi works at home but not when away from home

My Wifi works at home but not when away from home, what is wrong? I thought with a phone plan I didn't need to have a wifi connection.

You either need WiFi or Cellular (or both). If you have neither, you can't connect to the internet.
Most people use WiFi at home and Cellular while away from home, or connect to public WiFi networks where there are some.

Captivate 3 shows skin in preview but not when I run after published?

Captivate 3 shows skin in preview but not when I run after published. It shows it is included, what's up?

Is the Skin externalised? If so, perhaps Flash Global Security is interfering:

You could also try NOT externalising the skin.

Simple buttons working in Preview, but not on iPad

Hello everyone. I have a Button (I'm working in InDesign CS6), with instructions "Go to State". It links to a photo on a seperate layer. The link works perfectly in the SWF preview (shift-command-return). But when I update the file to view it in Adobe Viewer it does not work. (I am using Viewer Vers 25) There are no other functions on the page that could be "blocking" it. In fact, on some pages where there are two or three buttons (all of them with instructions of "Go to State"), 2 may work and one not. I am confused as to how I can see it working in the Preview, but not on the iPad. Any suggestions appreciated. Many thanks!!

Bob, just got in and downloaded the patch - the buttons are working perfectly now!!
Thank you for taking the time to help me out!! I'll be more diligent from now on in checking for updates. Thanks again. James
