Thanks,

Hi,

FlashComponent is just wrapper around flash object. Its javascript functions depends from loaded swf file. Therefore you should to ask about it your flash developer.


To get flash object in the javascript

FlashComponent1.el.dom

Hi,

I have the following code to show the swf animation using javascript, but it does not work.

Could you tell me please what I am doing wrong?

<script type="text/javascript"> 


function showAnimation(portalAnimation)


{


    var animationUrl =  './Portals/EN/' + portalAnimation;


    flasSearchPortal.load({ url : animationUrl});


}




<ext:LayoutColumn ColumnWidth="0.8">


<ext:Panel ID="Panel5" runat="server" Width="680px" Padding="5" Height="415px" >


<Content>


<ext:FlashComponent ID="FlashSearchPortalAnimation" runat="server" 


Height="415px" 


Width="680px"  />


</Content>


</ext:Panel>


</ext:LayoutColumn>


</script>

Hi,

FlashComponent doesn't support changing url after rendering.
Try the following code but I am not sure that it will work

FlashComponent1.el.dom.data = newurl;

HI,

I did what you say what it does not work.

Do you think the following code is correct and it is enough to make work the animation using javascript or I am missing something?

    <script type="text/javascript">   
         function showAnimation(portalAnimation)
         {
             var animationUrl= './Portals/EN/' + portalAnimation;

             FlashSearchPortalAnimation.el.dom.data = animationUrl;
         }
     
     </script>

Hi,

Are you sure that you use correct ulr? Just the dot in the begining of the url confuse me. May be you have to use two dots?

'../Portals/EN/'+portalAnimation

[flormariafr]

Yes I am sure "./ " is for the current directory

I use it for almost all of the code and it works fine.

Hi Flor,

Can you demonstrate how you would change the url of a flash object using JavaScript without Coolite/ExtJS on the Page? just using raw native JavaScript.


Once we have that we should be able to provide an example of how to hook that up to a Listener and use the el.dom object.
