Sort of flash intro but not!

Hey everyone!
I am new(ish) to Flash and I have MX 2004
I would really like help when it comes to making a flash
intro. It is sort of like a flash intro but not.
I want the elements of the website to start moving in then
when they have all stopped moving, the site to be TML/PHP again.
This would only happen for the index page, and only the first time
they came to the site, so it only happened once.
You can see an example of the sort of thing at
this website but the whole
thing is made in Flash.
Is this possible, if it is can someone help me?
The site need help with is
HERE
If anyone could email me of reply here I would be really
grateful.
Thanks!

Yes, it is possible to do this (i.e.Run Once when they come
to the page). I expect that if you use a cookie, you could even
tell it to only run the first time they come to the page. Most
definitely you can have it on only one page. See my web site for an
example of the latter.

  • Flex mobile 4.6 app works inside flash builder but not in android emulator

    Originally posted on stackoverflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8663892/flex-mobile-4-6-app-works-inside-flash-builder- but-not-in-android-emulator
    I have a basic flex mobile 4.6 app and it works fully fine in the flash builder built-in emulator using an android device profile like aria...
    It also launches fine in the android emulator but one particular view shows blank (and this view works fine in flash builder).
    Before I get in to many details of the view are there any categorical gotchas that can be causing this?
    I can't seem to get the trace statements from the app to show in 'adb logcat'. It seems I need to compile a debug version of the apk but I don't know how to do this. I use the 'Export Release Build' from the Project menu in flash builder and it doesn't seem to have an option for debug=true.
    The problematic/blank view basically uses the stagewebview and iotashan's oauth library to call linkedin rest apis... A different (and working) view can make restful web service calls in the emulator fine, so it doesn't seem to be an internet permission.
    The source code contained in the problematic/blank view is almost identical to the tutorial found at:http://www.riagora.com/2011/01/air-and-linkedin/
    The differences are: a) The root tag is a View b) I use StageWebView instead of HtmlContainer c) I use my own linkedin key and tokens.
    I would appreciate it if someone can provide me with some pointers on how to troubleshoot this situation. Perhaps someone can tell me how to debug the app while running in the emulator (I think I need the correct adt command arguments for this which matches the 'Export Release Build' menu but adds the debug param?)
    Thanks for your help in advance.
    Comment Added:
    I suspect that this has to do with connections to https:// api.linkedin.com and https:// www.linkedin.com. The only reason I can think of that the same code is not having issues inside of Flex Builder but indeed having issues in the Android emulator is something to do with certificates. Any ideas?

    Thanks er453r,
    I have created a project that clearly reproduces the bug.  Here are the steps:
    1) Create a UrlLoader and point it to https://www.google.com (HTTPS is important because http works but HTTPS does not)
    2) Load it
    3) Run in Flash Builder 4.6/Air 3.1 and then run in Android emulator.  The former works with an http status 200.  The latter gives you an ioerror 2032.  I am assuming what works in Flash Builder is supposed to work in the Android Emulator and what what works in the emulator is supposed to work in a physical device (plus or minus boundary conditions).
    I see a certificate exception in adb logcat but not sure if it's related...
    Here is the self contained View code which works with a TabbedViewNavigatorApplication:

  • Spartan support Flash Player but not silverlight!.

    why spartan(0.11.10061.0), support Flash player but not silverlight?

    Chrome supports flash natively.
    I guess they don't want consumers to move to Chrome because some web sites work on Chrome and not Spartan.
    Spartan is supposed to be a cut down super lightweight super fast browser.
    Running Silverlight/ActiveX in the browser is considered low priority by Microsoft.
    I think the idea is you use IE11 if you want Silverlight.

    Should you work in one of those enterprise companies.
    Or want to use Netflix, SkyGo etc etc.
    Hope that helps.

  • How can I get UDF to work on OS 10.8.5 will open 'intro' but not play content

    How can I view a UDF on Mac OS 10.8.5? It opens the cyclical intro but will not play the content. Using the controller reults in 'not permitted' for every action. Thank you!

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • Swf works in Flash App but not online!

    Hi Guys,
    I am sitting with a situation I cannot figure out.
    In The Flash Application, my gallery is working as it is meant to. Yet, when I upload the swf to the live site, the first image, text and movie of my gallery works but it refuses to scroll to the next item in my XML.
    I have given it an absolute path to that server which works in Flash but not when it is online.
    Has someone come across this anomaly before? I don't even know where to begin debugging.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Better u check the XML image names and the image path are correct.
    becoz case sensitive in online..

  • Flash installs but not recognized

    Flash player successfully downloads and installs but websites subsequently clicked state that Flash Player is not installed. Websites are reputable such as CNN. IE states that Flash is installed and Enabled.  Windows 7, IE recent versions, Flash 15.  I have reviewed and attempted Adobe's proposed solutions.

  • Works in Flash preview, but not on webpage?

    I'm using this code to externally load a .swf into my site. I made sure all the files were uploaded. I'm sure, because I can even find the .swf on the site, it just won't show up on the main page. (for example, I can find it at www.mysite.com/flashfolder/animation.swf, but not in it's place at www.mysite.com)
    Here's the code I'm using:
    createEmptyMovieClip("anim", 0);
    anim.loadMovie("animation.swf");
    anim._x = 156;
    anim._y = 515;
    It's inserted into the actions panel of a new layer in the main Scene 1 timeline in my .fla project. It works when I preview it (ctrl+enter), but when I upload everything to the site, it doesn't show up?
    Anyone know what may cause/why this is happening?
    Thanks for your help in advance!

    Is the file that is loading animation.swf also in the same folder?

  • Scroll script works in Flash 6, but not in 9

    I have a simple scroller script that works fine for scrolling
    a movieclip in Flash 6, but when I publish in anything later, it no
    longer scrolls. Both are set to AS2. Is there an obvious reason
    that anyone can see of why this should be? When I test the script
    syntax in the actions panel, it says there are no errors in the
    script. By tracing I can see that there's no trouble with targeting
    the up and down buttons or scroll slider, and the slider still
    drags, but the content MC doesn't move as it should. Thank you very
    much for your help, in advance. Here's the script, in case the
    answer isn't obvious from the description:

    You were right! It works now, even as posted above. I just
    remembered I had fixed an upper/lower case inconsistency just for
    neatness since I last tested, never thinking that would fix the
    problem! I just tested again and to my surprise, it works great. I
    guess neatness does count!!! Thanks again, kglad!

  • LoadMovie working in Flash Player, but not when posted online

    I have built a website
    utilizing Dreamweaver and Flash. This page:
    http://www.tonystubbs.com/print.html
    has a link under "print" called "catalog". It is supposed to load a swf file when clicked. It works when I view it in Flash Player, but when I import it into Dreamweaver and post it, it isn't working.

    It is likely an issue with file location/targeting since you appear to be loading the swf into the html page from a separate folder.  When you do that, any files that the swf file loads need to be targeted as if that swf is in the same folder as the html file.  So if your other swf is also in the images folder, then when you specify to load it in the Flash file you need to include the images folder in the path.

  • Audio loops first .5sec of audio in flash/vlc, but not mplayer, cmus

    Also after closing vlc, the glitchloop will sometimes persist, and htop shows vlc as still alive. Similar to having to 'killall firefox' occasionally, which I've gotten used to but which may have a shared reason. This happens when playing mp3s in vlc also, but not in cmus. Started about a week ago, didn't do any major changes that I recall.

  • Works in Flash player but not from Browser

    I know this has shown up in the forum before but I must be using the wrong search terms because I can't find it.
    I've created a Flash file that reads from several different xml files and displays them when requested. When I run the Flash player, (by pressing Command-Space within Flash), it all works flawlessly. But when I open it within a browser, only one of the xml files loads, the other two just spin away on the preloader.
    I have another Flash file that is doing the same thing. A click on a scrolling new list should take you to another web page. In Flash Player it works fine, but from a Browser nothing happens.
    Anyone know why this is?
    thanks

    As odd as it may seem, the tip-off to the problem may be:
    " When I run the Flash player, (by pressing Command-Space within Flash), it all works flawlessly"
    If any of your Flash assets are in a different folder than the HTML Web page... then testing the .swf directly like that should NOT work!
    It's most likely a pathing issue:
    Pathing issues
    Almost always when it works on the local machine and not the server, it's a pathing problem.
    You can put your Flash related files in whatever folders you want, they do NOT have to be in the root, they do NOT all have to be in the same folder. But if you have a problem and if sticking them all in the root folder works, then you know that the issue was a pathing problem.
    Just remember that paths used in the .swf become relative to the Web page on which the .swf is placed, NOT it’s physical location.  So for example, if your .swf is in the flash/data folder and you use that .swf on a Web page in the root folder, you are in effect, removing that .swf from flash/data and putting it in root. So if the .swf is loading any related files (xml, images, video, etc), the path used inside the .swf to load the .xml file has to be relative to it's new location in root and then back down into flash/data. This is true even though when testing the .swf by itself, it can be inside flash/data and work just fine, since relative to it's location, the path is just fine, they are in the same folder. But if that same path is used when the .swf is placed on a page two folder levels up, the relative path has changed, the old "same folder" path will not work.
    In fact if you are placing the .swf on a web page in a different folder than the .swf is stored in, and that .swf calls external assets, then direct clicking and opening of the .swf in it’s folder should NOT work! That’s because the paths to the external assets should be relative to the Web page and not the physical location of the .swf.
    So just be sure that you use addresses relative to the final Web page locations (not physical file locations) and you can put the Flash related files in what ever folders you want.

  • Adobe Flash installed but not showing up in Plug-Ins?

    Before this happened, every time I would download the latest version of Flash it would show up in Chrome Plug-Ins. I have Version 17 installed but it's not showing up anymore, there's only 1 file when there used to be 2...and when I attempt to watch a video that requires Flash it tells me to upgrade when I already have the latest version... Help?

    It looks like you have the correct Flash Player and that it's enabled.  Since you have Flash Player, usually the thing that's going on is that the website either has faulty code that detects the presence of Flash Player (each website has code that does this), or if you're seeing it everywhere, it's typically a plug-in or extension that prevents that kind of code from working as written. 
    Have you installed any ad-blocking or anti-tracking plugins (AdBlock Pro, Ghostery, etc)?
    In rare instances Chrome can get damaged, but a fresh install will usually clear that up.  That's the nuclear option though.

  • Why do books sort correctly in iTunes but not in iBooks?

    I've filled in all necessary info on the sorting tab and, while all my books sort perfectly in iTunes, on syncing my iPhone and iPad, iBooks does not display the books in the correct order no matter what selections are made.
    My intent is to have the books in my library, be grouped together by series and displayed in the correct order one would read the series.  I'm using Sort Name with a series name and series position designation number along with Sort Author as Last, First.  But no luck.  I've tried reading through other threads and have yet to come upon a fix. Any suggestions?

    My guess is your paths are wrong to the loaded content. Done
    for local view
    not for html. Make sure the paths to files are a ok.
