[Flashcoders] Re: IE6 problem with SWFAddress?
I have ran into this nightmare and am still not sure what causes it. Just as I thought I had it beat it I would do a as2js call and the swf would disappear in IE. Something else I have seen is Firefox freeze up the swf. If I had to retroubleshoot it again I would look for this: -Are you using a getURL(javascript:jsFunction()) type call? I have had your problem mixing these in with ExternalInterface. I would first try switching getURL javascript calls to ExternalInterface. Another solution I have heard of is using setTimeout on the Javascript side to delay opening the window for a second I ended up hacking up SwfAddress and moving it off ExternalInterface to the SwfObject/Javascript/ASGateway here: http://blog.deconcept.com/code/intkit/ This has been my most solid in my testing (and lets SwfAdress work with Flash 7) Good luck. ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
RE: [Flashcoders] Re: IE6 problem with SWFAddress?
Yes, mixing getURL and ExternalInterface causes problems with IE6 (and 7 to a lesser extent) when using SWFAddress. He talks about it on his site and there are also discussions on his forum, as well. I didn't see them at first, either. It took me awhile to figure out why the site was behaving oddly because the class that I had that used getURL (an omniture tracking class) wasn't making getURL calls on my server but was on the client's server. I didn't put the two together until I spent an afternoon chatting with Rostislov (the author of SWFAddress) and he asked me casually about whether I was using getURL somewhere else. The solution is to use ExternalInterface instead of getURL(), which actually performs better anyway. -Steven ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
