I have a very long script with a lot of elements being added to the stage.
when I compile everything shows up perfectly in flash.
But once I open the file or go to my browser to look at it, the addChild's are not being added. I am unsure why this is, is there a problem with how I am compiling.
I would post my script, but I don't feel there is anything wrong with it. as it is working in the compiler perfectly.
Also I had it working in the browser and in the file without issues then all of a sudden it just stopped working.
I don't know if this is a cache issue but I cleared all of my browser history and data.

i'm struggling with the classic HTML input of type file. I was using it on my angular application and i had freeze sometimes, the whole browser became unresponsive, and the only thing that works is the scroll.
You can't click any buttons, select any text or even change tab on the browser for about 5 seconds. I tried a lot of different file type and sizes and it doesn't change any of this, it even freeze sometimes when i don't select any file in the explorer and i click the close button directly.
So I thought it was my implementation that was bad and i went to the Mozilla developper website where you have an example and I have exactly the same behaviour. I also tried to take only the HTML from the Mozilla website and put it alone on a .html file and again, same behaviour.
This does not occur 100% of the time, but I would argue that on my end it does it about 60/70 % of the times.
I tried it on chrome and Firefox (both up to date), on multiple computer (all running Windows though) and i have the same behaviour on all of them.
I don't have any error or anyting in the consoles.
I don't know what to do with this, i'm pretty sure it can't be the file's input on the whole web that are bugged, but i tried a lot of various things with always the same results. Should i report it somewhere? ( if so, where? ) Or what would you suggest to do to investigate this further?
I couldn't find anyone discussing this issue on the internet apart for this thread that had no solution, they also say in this thread that the bug is not reproducible in Edge, but i just tried and it does the same thing.
Thanks for reading me and for any help about this.
Chrome freezes for few seconds when after any use of file field.
It was because I had a shortcut in "Quick Access" menu in windows explorer. This shortcut has been linked with a folder shared by network. I've removed this shortcut and everything is good now.
Same here, I have a mapped network drive that is not responding, this make a 5 seconds delay. After unmapping the drive, no more delay. The delay is the same in firefox or chrome.
Same here, if you want to remove it, on Windows 10, click on the icon Quick access (blue star), then right click on the dead link appearing in the "Frequent folders" panel on the right panel and choose "Unpin/Remove from Quick access". There should be no error message.
this is a weird one.
In our Flash project, we add a listener for stage resize events so we can do some dynamic resizing. At the moment we're not running it in a browser, just testing it in the standalone Flash player, and it has been working fine but recently, for some reason the events are no longer being triggered. What's odd is that it appears to be something code-related because when I switch over to a different chunk of code, the events still trigger - but I can't see any reason for it. The listener is still on the stage and its willTrigger is still true.
I know this is all a bit vague, but any suggestions would be valuable!
Again, just to be very clear, I'm not talking about running it in a browser, so this isn't anything to do with setting the resize settings in HTML.
Thanks
Well, if it were an AIR app i would suggest adding your event listener to NativeApplication.nativeApplication instead of the stage, a long time ago i had a similar intermittent problem and that was the fix. However i think thats only available for AIR. You can try to change your publiah settings to an AIR app just to see if it works. If it still doesnt work id have to assume its something code related on your part. willTrigger sounds suspicious :)
So, this is pretty silly. I'm working on a banner ad that utilizes the clicktag. It's a surprisingly fancy one that uses pointroll, and when you hover over the 300x250 banner ad, it pulls up a larger one overtop of it that is bigger and much more interactive. In total, the larger banner has 29 clicktags, all using the variables "clickTag1" to "clickTag29".
The banners are all done, everything fires correctly (according to my trace statements). However, I'm in the middle of QA, testing all of the clicktags using this validator: https://flashval-temp.appspot.com/validator/ , when suddenly, it stops working after clickTag20. I thought it may have been the validator at first, so I tried other validators. No luck. I went back into my code (everything is a duplicate of one template, so the only code changes made were the changes to the string), and made sure to test it again. They're firing off just fine according to my trace statements.
Finally, and this doesn't seem to make sense to me, but I switched the variables clickTag20 and clickTag21. The button that fired off clickTag20 worked, so I assigned it clickTag21. The button that was assigned clickTag21 was the first to stop working, so I assigned it clickTag20. When I ran that through the validator, the button that was assigned to clickTag20, regardless of which button it was, worked! The one that was assigned clickTag21 never did, also regardless of which button it was fired off from.
The variable is a string of a paramObj. How does the content of that string matter? I would have assumed it was compile order, but even in that case, clickTag21 should have fired and not clickTag20. What is going on here? Has anyone else experienced this? If so, did you have a workaround? Please and thank you!!
Here is the thing... when you set a clicktag you're waiting for a flashvar. A parameter sent from the HTML to your SWF file. (more: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash/kb/pass-variables-swfs-flashvars.html)
Usually you'd test, if this parameter doesn't exists, the banner should do nothing, otherwise, open the link.
Turns out, and this is a guess, that these validators don't know how many clicktags you have in your flash file - or how many parameters you're waiting for - , so they pass up to 20 variables to your flash file, which is more than reasonable.
The bottom line is: if your events are working, you should be fine. Pointroll has a QA team, if something comes up, they will let you know, but as far as I can see from here, you should be fine.
Good luck
Got another weird/specific question for y'all: I'm able to do with this with other .swfs just fine, but Ookla's Speedtest is something of a problem. Basically we have a part of our website that runs Speedtest to determine somebody's bandwidth and use its results in some if statements. But when the person tries to change panels and come back in, Speedtest just sort of disappears. It's supposed to go back to the beginning and start again, but it's like it just keeps running and turns invisible.
When I tried loading another .swf in the SWFLoader, I could get it to reset just fine without disappearing. There's something specifically about Ookla's Speedtest that's causing a problem. If I do nothing to reset the Speedtest .swf when the user starts moving around panels, it won't disappear at least. Putting in code to make it reset is a completely different story though.
What's the trick for this program? Did Ookla design the .swf specifically so it wouldn't work like that or something? Thanks!
Evidently Ookla has designed the .swf against being used like that, which is probably costing them customers.
I've run into this problem twice in all the site's I've designed and I can't figure out how to fix it. (The flash compiler has not given me any errors for this.)
Here is the link first of all

Once you're in the site click on portfolio and then click on "the excelsior" what happens is that for the first 4-5 clicks it won't do what it's supposed to do and it'll start randomly either stopping at a frame or playing a from a frame. Once it's done it's randomness it all works perfect again, but those initial clicks do not take you anywhere.
This is an externally loaded SWF and I've loaded it with 2 different techniques hoping it was that but that didn't fix it.
I've tried simply placing a UiLoader and linking it and what it is now, a var myLoader.
Anyone run into something like this before?
You should try to be more specific in asking programming questions. I almost took it as a spam link.
Anyway's if I am getting you correct, the initial thumbnail clicks don't load the image.You should probably use individual loader for each of those large images.
