names are local
IDs are global, they should all be unique

play() is different than play=true or play=false.  Seems you might be getting things crossed up?

Anyone else got any ideas on this?

If it's a bug can I file it somewhere?

Does Laszlo have a bugzilla?

I think it is a bug, it seems as if the play() is triggered but it only plays the video's audio. Something in the play="false" attribute is stopping the video's picture from showing even when the video is told to play.

Can't try where I am.
BTW, as far as I know you should always use name attribute instead of id, as id is generated by laszlo compiler for internal stuff.
Best,

2006/6/26, Martin Allchin < [EMAIL PROTECTED]>: The following code loads an swf file (a video) into a view using a datapath:


code: ___________________________________

<view id="videoviewer2" y="22" width="200" height="150" stretches="both" play="false" align="center" resource="$path{'video/text()'}">
  <method event="onlastframe">
    this.stop(1);
  </method>
</view>

<!-- Play button -->
<basebutton x="5" y="22" resource="viewProfile_btn">
  <method event="onclick">
    videoviewer2.play();
  </method>
</basebutton> ___________________________________



As you can see it has play="false" to stop it from playing the video, and a button with an onclick event to trigger play().

Clicking the button causes the video's audio to play, but the view is black, there is no visual. Removing play="false" causes the video to play correctly with both visual and audio, but I need it on an onclick.

Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug? I have tried setting an oninit event to stop() the video instead of setting the play attribute but I get the same error, no visual.

Please help.
