Question

Hide div after specific time and after buffer the flash video.

Answer 1

+1 A:

To hide a div when a flash video if finished you need to define a flash var to send a value for that so the js can pick it up.

I dont recommend you to use a 12sec settimeout for this as you never know what happens in people's browser. they might have low speed connection and face extra seconds loading the video. then it would hide before they finish watching.

if you are more of a js guy than action script you might want to consider using plugins like soundmanager 2 where they have flash gateway apis which allows you to open flash videos called from jquery...

those apis already have done this kinda work for you. so they would have call back function for loading the video...something like onFinishPaying : function() {... bla}

you can find it here

and here is the basic video setup sample code

As i said before for doing all this you need a way of communicating between flash and java script. you have to either do it manually through defining flahvars with action script so they send out a signals to your js to take actions accordingly. however many of these options are already defined if you use soundmanager. that is your perfect solution

i found another nice one for you with loads of video options you can have with jqueryhttp://flowplayer.org/documentation/api/index.htmlread that link and what you want is as easy as for example:flowplayer().setVolume(50).seek(40).onFinish( function(){$(this).fadeOut();});

believe me what i am suggesting is the easiest. Looking into catching the event of finished buffer time from action script and passing it into javascript will waste you whole day. and might not even happen with your player.

A:

Use settimeout functionality.

setTimeout( "document.getElementById('fvideo').style.display:none", 1200 );

-1. #1 Never use astring as the first argument of setTimeout or setInterval. Eval is evil. Crockford is our god. http://javascript.crockford.com/code.html#bonus#2 Why not use jQuery?
