Movie Playback / Div Formatting Of Chosen Fortune Not Working
Jun 5, 2009
I am a newbie to Javascript and am a little overwhelmed. I am trying to make a website where one clicks on a button, starting a .flv movie of someone breaking open a fortune and holding the fortune up to the camera and randomly chosen sentences sent by Javascript appearing over the white piece of paper. So far it does jack except for show a button and the movie without playing. When the button is pressed, nothing happens.
The div formatting of the chosen fortune doesn't work. I also need to use something besides document.write() since it clears the page when it shows the text. I am not sure how to make the movie play using Javascript. I was half guessing based on some stuff I read on the web, and it doesn't work. Also, is there a way to get rid of the Flash play and stop, etc., buttons or tie them to Javascript?
I was working on embedding image using the object tag with quicktime. i was succesfully embed it but it seems like i cannot display the playback controls (like "play","pause","stop" etc).Here's my code:
I have several movie clips and would wish to play them in sequence. There is possible to use the SetQTNEXTUrl property for the quicktime plugin, but it creates a black gap between the clips.
Is it possible to use to player objects and swap between them. So that I hide one player and reveal another when one clip stops?
I have used the swfobject.js file & its methods to play a flash movie in my webpage. It works fine when I open the page in firefox & chrome but does not work in IE-6. Below is the code i used:
I have embedded youtube videos in my site. I have them show and hide using jquery. Is there a way to make the videos stop playback when they are hidden?
Use jquery to track visitors mouse movements and clicks and then playback. Here is the proof of concept:Uses: jQuery and php. jquery records mouse moves and clicks, sends data via ajax to a php page, the php page writes the mouse events to a text file.When you go to the playback page, jquery connects to a php page that reads the text file and moves the mouse accordingly
What I am finding out is that is opens a new window, which is great, but it loops - now I converted the video in Flash MX, but it doesn't allow me to change the loop properties of the flash video, only the HTML properties. Is there a quick fix for this using this javascript?
I have a query to do with windows media player. I am not sure whether what I want is done using JavaScript, but it is my best guess.
Basically, I was wondering how some websites have an advert clip or there logo appear before the actual video. The advert runs then it seems the player loads another movie.
I have a website that I just inserted a flash JS movie into... The site looks fine, and it even says that the movie is loading, but after that... NOTHING... I tried removing the <noscript> tags, but nothing seems to be working.
Purpose: To create a page that plays different movies depending on which link the user clicks on. Only one player is displayed to play all the movies. Right now the links are text for my convenience but eventually they'll be images.
Problem: I can't get the player to change to the second movie. I'm doing this in JavaScript. Here I'm showing it to you as inline script, but it doesn't work as a function call either.
Question: How do I get this page to change the movie in the player based on the user's click?
I've tried this 2 different ways: creating the playing with manual code and creating it with an Apple-supplied function call.
When I create the player using the Apple supplied function, I get no error message and it also doesn't change the movie. The existing movie just keeps playing. I created a bunch of other links to do things like stop the movie, start the movie, rewind the movie, and retrieve the movie URL, and these work in IE for the manual coding but not for the Apple supplied function call. I also tested both versions on the other 4 major browsers. None of them change the movie either, but for the Apple supplied function they will all start the movie, stop the movie and rewind the movie from JavaScript. I can give you that information as well.
I want to dynamically change a flash movie in an html page. Following code is working fine in IE, but netscape 4 and 6 it is not working. Can any one rectify the error:
i have 4 movie clips. i am able to run the first clip with autostart a soon as the webpage opens. i am running the movie clips under window media player.
Question 1:i want to run all the movie clips continously one afte another.
Question 2: how to stop clip1 and run clip3(user selection). the movie should run under the same media player, on the same page.
I have a Javascript which I'm using to display one of four Flash SWF files randomly. These need to be actually displayed twice, so I'm basically calling the script twice.This works great aside from one thing- occasionally the same movie appears in both scripts, for example the first instance picks movie 3 of 4 and th second instance does the same.What I need is to somehow make sure that if the first instance of the script picks movie x then the second script will pick any movie EXCEPT movie x.
This is the script as it stands:
<script language="JavaScript"> // Generate a Random Number var randomnumber = Math.round(Math.random()*3);
I would like to know how do I reload a flash movie. But it is not simply rewind, it is to change the swf file and the browser refresh the movie and play it.
Here is the code that I am using to play the first flash movie code...
What I want is to change the "tvscreen.swf" to "newtvscreen.swf" and play it.
I managed to change the src in embed tag, but the flashmovie did not load.
Im trying to find a code for such a ''Reckoner'' script as it is here: [url]
Of course the datas should be instantly updates when exchange rates between currencies changes and it does changing very often (daily). I thought I could ask their webmaster for the code but the script is not the same to what is needed because there should be some rounding also done to the nearest 5. What do I mean with ''nearest 5'' is shown here:
[url]
I have seen those four scripts already but they are different:
[url]
Its very important for me that updates are being changed by trustful source (website) which will really stay up 24/7 forever and will get (this source) new exchange rates instantly. If source would be unavailable that means the script on page of my website would be unavailable too. Also I should not need to republish page (or entire website) when the datas are changed. When I mentoined changes should be instantly, on html page, I meant when page (or website) is being reloaded. So since the source of exchange rate is important, the code should not contain any values at all (except for rounding) because those values (exchange rates) are changing very often (daily).
pls how do I detect if .swf movie is playing or has stopped? .swf is in a pop-up, I would like to trigger a window.close() once Flash movie has stopped playing..
I have this script:URL...that takes latest movies from youtube channel.When you click on the movies below it should load the movie to the playerit works well on Firefox but not on IE or Google Chrome
I have a navigation that has a list of employee name. And I used up and down key to see the names and I click enter key to view the data of that employee. Now, I want to have a color the name when I press the up and down key and also I want to be highlight or the color will stay in the the name that I choose after I press the enter key..Is it possible?is it using CSS? or javascript?How?
Here is my code: Code: <script> window.onload = function() { // function() { var ul = document.getElementById('searchpayroll'); var links = ul.getElementsByTagName('a'); var i = 0; document.onkeyup = function(e){ //function(e){ e = window.event || e; .....
I've done a form, basically is a group of textareas that will send the data inside them to a main textarea, something like:
textarea1: hi textarea2: this is a test main text area: hi this is a text
No the problem is that i have some text areas that have submenus like:
textarea3: - Subtextarea 1 - subtextarea 2
Even though they are hidden the parameters of all the textareas in my html are sent to the main textarea. I want this to send the data of the textareas only chosen by the user.
So if i choose : textarea3: - subtextarea 1
It will send this value and not from subtextarea 2 as well.
I couldnt paste my whole html here because is too long, but ill put what matters.
I'm pretty sure the mistake is in the function transfer() , because i'm putting "+" and this just adds the textareas and doesnt control which ones, but how can i use something like "if textarea1 is visible then show this in the main textarea"?
Code:
This goes in the <HEAD> <Script language="javascript"> function transfer(){ document.getElementById("textarea1").value='Summary of the case:
I have two arrays (States, Cities) I am trying to allow the user to chose one from a select form (Choice) and then have the values of the chosen array displayed in a alert(). Obviously I could just write an if statement and display the required content depending on whether the value selected == States or Cities. But this project is just a placeholder project for me to figure out one aspect of a much larger project I am working on. And it is important for the result to be chosen dynamically as in the final project I won't know the values that the select field is being filled with.What I need to do is take the value returned from the select field (Choice) and turn that into the name of the array and display that. If I use this code
PHP Code:
alert(States);
then it returns the values of that array. But like I said I need to be able to dynamically select what array to display based on users input
PHP Code:
alert(document.getElementById("Choice").value);
returns the value chosen. How can I take the value chosen and actually display the value of the array with that same name. In other words let JS know that I don't literally want it to display the value chosen but rather the value chosen is the name of the array I want it to display?
PHP Code:
1. Pseudo code 2. x = document.getElementById("Choice").value;
This is what I'm trying to do. I'm trying to load a flash movie transparently over my existing html page (not covering the full screen, but 75% of it), so it is kind of similar to a "splash screen" in the respect it is to be an introductory screen.
I already have a flash movie made (although for some reason WMODE=TRANSPARENT isn't working), but we'll get to that in a sec. I also already have all the html for the playing the movie and displaying my page. The html to display the page is made up of a bunch of table rows within a <DIV> tag.
During onLoad of the <body> element, I call a javascript method to actually play the flash. The flash does play, but what happens is that instead of playing on top of the existing page, it plays at the top of the page and if you scroll down, there is the rest of the html page (the tables and stuff). I dont want it at the top, but to actually overlay the tables until it finishes playing, then to go away automatically.
I'm struggling with the html part of this. I know browsers render from top to bottom, but I dont know how to display over the existing stuff.
I toyed with the idea of making the flash into a popup in a new window (window.open), but to make it look right, I'd have to make it a transparent window, borderless, etc... and I'm not sure thats the right way to do it either.
