Hey, so I'm having a bunch of trouble getting ExternalInterface to work, which is odd, because I use it somewhat often.
I'm hoping it's something I just missed because I've been looking at it too long.
The flash_ready function is correctly returning the objectID, and as far as I can tell, everything else is in order.
Unfortunately, when I run it, I get an error (varying by browser) telling me that basically document.getElementById(<movename>).test() is not a valid method.
Here's the code:
javascript:
function flash_ready(i){
document.getElementById(i).test('success!');
}
Embed Html (Generated):
<script type="text/javascript">
swfobject.embedSWF("/chainmaille/includes/media/flash/upload_image.swf", "/chainmaille/includes/media/flash/upload_image", "500", "50", "9.0.0","expressInstall.swf", {}, {allowScriptAccess:'always', wmode:'transparent'},{id:'uploader_flash',name:'uploader_flash'});
</script>
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" id="uploader_flash" name="uploader_flash" data="/chainmaille/includes/media/flash/upload_image.swf" width="500" height="50"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></object>
AS3 :
package com.jesseditson.uploader {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.external.ExternalInterface;
import flash.system.Security;
public class UI extends MovieClip {
// Initialization:
public function UI() {
Security.allowDomain('*');
ExternalInterface.addCallback("test", test);
var jscommand:String = "flash_ready('"+ExternalInterface.objectID+"');";
var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("javascript:" + jscommand + " void(0);");
navigateToURL(url, "_self");
}
public function test(t){
trace(t);
}
}
}
Swfobject is being included via google code, and the flash embeds just fine, so that's not the problem.
I've got a very similar setup working on another server, but can't seem to get it working on this one. It's a Hostgator shared server. Could it be the server's fault? Anybody see any obvious syntax problems?
Thanks in advance!
