[Flashcoders] Getting variables in as3

2007-01-23 Thread William Smith

In earlier versions of flash if varaibles were appeneded on to the end of
the url (i.e. movie.swf?frame=6size=30) you could access the varaibles with
just their names or _root.[varaible name]. With the loss of _root in AS3 how
would you accomplish this?

Re: [Flashcoders] Remote SWF to read local FLV

2007-01-10 Thread William Smith

I'm assuming the by remote you mean somewhere off the computer, i.e. a
website. Due to the flash security model, remote files cannot access local
files. Also local files can access either remote content or local content,
but not both. If your remote file is on a web server there is no way I can
think of using any language that you can access them without uploading them
first.

this problem... FPlayer 8 did not have that behavior but all the students
are on the process of upgrading their reader so...

The FLVs comes in two flavers, remote and local, to allow easy access
(even on a dialup connection).

Is anyone aware of a work around?

There's an article on adobe devcenter about dynamic buffering.

It uses FMS in the example, but the concept should work without it.

[Flashcoders] AS3 loader and positioning

2007-01-09 Thread William Smith

So I'm trying to dynamically load and position images. I can get them to
display, but how do I position them

I load them using this code:
PHP Code:
 var container:Sprite = new Sprite();
addChild(container);
var xPos:Number = 0;

for each (var a:String in imgURL){
   var image:Sprite = new Sprite();
   var pictLdr:Loader = new Loader();
   var pictURLReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest(a);
   pictLdr.load(pictURLReq);
   pictLdr.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, imgLoaded);
   container.addChild(image)
   image.addChild(pictLdr);
}
function imgLoaded(e:Event):void
{
   xPos +=e.target.width
}
 Which works great, but no positioning.

Live docs had this
PHP Code:
 function loaded(event:Event):void
{
   var content:Sprite = event.target.content;
   content.scaleX = 2;
}
 But flash throws this error:
Quote:
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert
flash.display::[EMAIL PROTECTED] to flash.display.Sprite.

The only way I have seen is to do to for loops on a bitmap data object using

string to an image and saves it. Though fauxto seems to have found a very
quick way of saving the image. You might be able to see how they do it.

It won't work. Even with all security, policy files and whatnot in
place, you can't .draw content from a movieclip into a BitmapData if the
movieclip has an image loaded from another server; it will render as
white images instead. Same with remotely loaded video.

You need to either:

1. Have the loaded images on the same server as the SWF;
2. Have a server proxy script on the SWF server that loads the images
from the remote server and passes them to the SWF (so the SWF only
loads from the original server);
3. Have a proxy SWF on the remote server that loads the images, grabs
the data, then passes it to the original SWF. This SWF needs to set
.allowDomain to the original server so it can use the data.
4. Use AS3 (Flash 9), as this has been fixed under the new VM.
