Thanks - but I am really struggling here. I have tried what you suggest - and indeed it works! But now I just can't get this to work. The section ns.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, handleProgress); just will not work below. Any thoughts? var videoPlayer:Video = new Video(270...

Thanks kennethkawamoto - that's really useful. However, I can't seem to find how to use that - do you have some kind of example of how it is used? Whenever I try to use this, it never works. Thanks.

Hi, I have been struggling with this issue for some time now. I have searched Google as well as this an other forums and haven't yet found a suitable solution. I know there is someone out there who can help as I have seen this hundreds of times before! I have a page that loads an FLV video. At...

Thanks - I did just find this today and it does work, to an extent! If you are just looking to talk between AS2 and AS3 - this works really well. However, I have a complication. I am trying to re-work an existing MP3 player which uses external .as files - and I'm pretty new to this. I can get...

Hi, I have an AS3 Flash console built in Flash CS3. I want to load an external SWF file, and send it a variable. If this was PHP (etc) then I would be using "mp3player.swf?filename=myclip.mp3" but you can't do that in Flash. To make things more complicated, the external SWF file is AS2. Any...

Hi, I am trying to synchronise an FLV video with some pictures (which change as the video plays). Some might say - "Use something like Camtasia". Well, I have done for the last 2 or 3 years and it has been great, up to a point. You can't really customise the template (only choose from 4 skins)...

I have been looking at thread250-1333195 - but this does not work in my situation. Possibly because I have misunderstood, or possibly because the solutions here do not work in ActionScript 3 (AS3). I have a number of FLV video files which I have imported into my Flash project (Adobe Flash CS3)...

Ok - I had been trying to work this out for 2 weeks and suddenly as soon as I ask for help it is now working. A few things that seem to have helped: - I turned on "Index file with unknown extenstions" since I was using .shtml files for server side includes*** - I upload a new page, and then...

I am trying to use Indexing Service within Computer Management on a Windows Server 2003 machine but am hitting a very odd problem. I cannot get the indexer to search the main www directory. I have been into Properties -> Advanced... -> ticked "For fast searching, allow indexing service to index...

Many people have already discussed this topic - but I am still having problems with opening a PDF in Acrobat. My problem is this: I am using the standard baOpenFile(filepath, "maximised") command which works fine for me and everyone in my office. The problem is my client's computer tried...

Thanks for poiting that out - I hadn't realised that was the same thing. Do you know how to read the XML stream that come back?

I have a situation in PHP where I need to post certain variables (username and password) to an authorisation script on a 3rd party server. On receipt of those two variables the script authenticates the data and sends an XML stream back which looks like: - <xml xmlns:s="xxx" xmlns:dt="xxx"...

Hi guys, I know this post is very old - but I'm having exactly the same problem with someone on a Mac. I've tried everything except I don't know how to get them to ping from a mac so presumably telnet-ing would also be difficult. They can email everyone else with the same domain name (or on...

Can someone tell me how to ping from a Mac? I want to ping an smtp server to check that outgoing mail access is ok from a wireless laptop which refuses to send emails. Thanks, Tim

We Brits are well behind you guys in technology, I'm sure! Tim

Ok - thanks. I will try this out and see. Frank - you're right in many ways this would be the easy option. However, the users of this Dirctor authored Training CD would be using shared machines available at their company premises - and therefore writing to the hard disk would not be an option...

Aquias, Thanks for your follow-up. The VPN in our office is set-up using the default settings of the VPN router (I installed and configured it) so while I agree that if there are technical staff around to mess with these things then yes - it could be a problem, but on the whole this would be a...

Kenneth, Is it possible to determine the floppy drive letter, and return an error if the floppy drive is empty or doesn't exist? Thanks, Tim

Two questions: 1. How would you go about reading those text files from a floppy disk rather than the CD? (assuming that the files have been saved onto a floppy disk previously) 2. When using 500ml's solution about getNetText is there a tried and tested way of checking whether an internet...

I'm not sure in my experience I agree with the last comment. We produce a lot of CDs for a particular client and they have iMac computers running OSX and OS9. We produce normal CD-Rs using Ahead Nero and use the autorun.inf file (as you've said). However, this works on all the Mac computers...
