I have searched everything and tried every method I can get my hands on and cannot get my CSS drop-down menus to display above my Flash file. You can go to: http://beta.riverlifefellowship.com and username is 'riverlife' and password is 'flow' (without the quotes on both). I am using swfObject and have the <param name="flashvars" value...
Why doesn't Adobe follow their own advice and have a Captivate swf listen for its own UNLOAD event, and clean up all its timers, event listeners, external references, etc. I'm finding it VERY DIFFICULT to get an Adobe Captivate swf out of the flash player's memory once loaded in with the Loader. Clearly, the unloadAndStop method isn't ...
Is there an official Adobe update to the AMF3 specification? There appear to be changes to the way the flash.utils.Dictionary object is encoded in AMF in Flash Player 10, but the AMF specification has not been updated on Adobe's website. ...
I have five movie clips in my library. I want to load each to the stage with a fade in and fade out. I thought I could just call them into an array, but I can't find how to reference them. I have other clips in the library too so I can't just grab them all. Anyone know how to do this? AS3, please. TIA ...
I initially wrote my Main class to read from LoaderInfo to parse some parameters, but then I recently added a Preloader, with that being the "main class". Is there a clean way to move things over, or to retrieve LoaderInfo? ...
I'm starting with programming actionscript and have a simple flow question related to flash. When I want to add a component to my library for later use with AS, I usually have to add the component to the canvas first so I can convert it to symbol. I then delete the Component instance from the canvas and bring instead the Symbol instance ...

But when I put a input text field ("T" icon in the palette) ...
I've been messing around a bit with a Facebook application for a while now, which is using FBML. A need has arisen to integrate graphs to display data. From what I can tell my options would be one of the following: Find a Flash Graph that doesn't require a JavaScript library to work Convert the application to an IFrame application, and...

There was a recent Flash vulnerability found that allows for the potential of malicious attacks when someone uploads a flash file or a file embedded with flash (for example, a gif overloaded). According to the article, even a simple image can be hijacked. In php, the typical ways of checking a file type are by extension, and by mime-ty...
I have two copies of an image (one called blurPic_mc & one called sharpPic_mc) and I want to be able to move both of them around the screen together. I need them to stay exactly on top of each other for some other functions I am running but right now the only one that moves is the top one (sharpPic_mc). Any Ideas? I included my code b...
I have a button with a MovieClip over the top of it. Is there an easy way to tell flash to ignore the mouseOver events of the MovieClip in ActionScript so my button doesn't flash? ...
Hey all, This is not your typical 1120. I know better than to have buttons/MCs without instance names on the timeline. Nope, this problem resides in a I timer I built from script I found online. The undefined property is related to the timer class delay I want to implement. What I'm trying to achieve is have the user click the next bu...
Hi, I'm new to Flash and ActionScript programming, so excuse me if I'm missing some basics here... I'm building an application which will have a control to play, pause, step forward & step back through different versions of my visualisation - like the controls on your tape deck, but moving my visualisations through time, instead of tha...
Hi Have been doing a lot of research on obtaining best quality video for use by the Flash Player. Since the latest Player(version 9 and up) supports the H.264 codec I assume thats the way to go. However am confused as to which output application and options to use for the best quality. Have used open source Handbrake with mixed results. ...
Hey. Im working on a flash project where I am loading multiple sounds from external files. The problem is that when I play them within my project there is a small delay from when they should be played until they are actually playing. My sounds are very short and are loaded before the project is actually using them. I have looked up the...

Hello, This is the objective I have been trying to accomplish but having no luck. I have a simple swf named "btn.swf". It has a button and when it is clicked, it dispatches an Event to it's parent 'Main App'; I then wrote a CustomEvent Class which 'btn.swf' extends to. Btn.swf creates an instance of CustomEvent and dispatches event. I...
If possible I would like to tile an image or MovieClip along a line using the standard moveTo() and lineTo() methods, The lines are directional so need to show something similar to >>>>>>>>>>>>>. The lines can be at any angle, so using drawRect() with beginBitmapFill() isn't an option. Also if possible I would like to have the lines anim...
