NOT A FLEX QUESTION, I am using Flash 8 How do I trap an event when the URL doesn't exist i.e. if a server is down?
I am doing flash Remoting where I am connecting to a particular server with openamf installed on port 7092 var myURL = "http://224.157.15.16:7092/openamf/gateway";; I am not sure if Remoting makes a connection over http like webservice. But apparently if it is not then the connection can get blocked due to some firewall or security software installed on a client's machine. The onStatus function also doesn't throw up an error But the output window would show Error opening URL "http://224.157.15.16:7092/openamf/gateway"; I tried different tricks but wasn't been able to trap it...!! any clue how I can ? Btw. Currently one of my client overseas cannot see the application running, but the rest can. I am presuming it is the port being blocked. 'cause for testing I change the port or make a wrong connection it too does give me an Error opening URL on output window but doesn't trap the error anywhere else so that I can show an appropriate message. Thank you, Regards, VARUN SHETTY ________________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Pat Buchanan Sent: Thursday, October 05, 2006 10:17 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [flexcoders] Open CF generated PDF report in new window from Flex? I'm converting an old CF app over to Flex. I have dozens of .CFR reports I want to call - they generate PDF not FlashPaper. I'm sure this is easy, and I'm over thinking it, but how do I post some data to new window that calls a CFR or other existing web page? What are the different ways people are doing this? I need to POST not GET the data to the pages. My first thought was to use an ExternalInterface call, but I've read that FireFox does not work with this method too well and I'm not sure how to POST with it to a new window. My next thought was to call back to JavaScript in the parent window and have it post for me. However, I'm not quite sure how and if this is a hack. Am I over-thinking this? Is there a simpler way? I've searched for hours.
