Webmaster Forum / Flash / Flash Actionscript / August 2006local CD download
hey guys... How can i give a user access to his/her own system to download (copy from a local location: - ie: CD), to their choosen location.? Esentially I want to make a flash front end to access files held on a CD. The download function of the file reference class requires a url string which after trying various combinations of 'http://127.0.0.1 , http://localhost ', they all fail unless the url sting refers to an online server... I would be encouraged for idea's on how to provide this capability to 'local users' and not using the getURL("relative path to file"); which in the case of some of the files (mp3's), causes a browser window to open.... thanks! Russ HI Russ, You can use JSystem http://jsystem.flashjester.com read this http://flashjester.com/?section=faq&cPath=28_60#274 Hope this is what you are looking for. Regards FlashJester Support Team e. - support@flashjester.com w. - http://www.flashjester.com There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness." looks quite the tool set; juggler; with the various plugins... though as my company forces me to dev' on a mac platform, and then the output be capale for both mac and win'... your prog' fails due to it [so far] only supports windows installs and users... I'll watch for new development...... thanks! > HI Russ, > [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > There is a very fine line between "hobby" and > "mental illness." you an create your projector using mProjector - it adds a class into Flash called mFile which includes functions like copyFile http://www.screentime.com/software/mprojector/docs/index.html#mFile there is a sample app/swf/fla here http://www.screentime.com/software/mprojector/flas.html#mFile  SignatureJohn Pattenden Screentime Media Flash Screen Saver, Application and Wallpaper tools http://www.screentime.com very impressive! i will have to mention this to the boss... ~thanks~ > you an create your projector using mProjector - it adds a class into Flash > called mFile which includes functions like copyFile [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > http://www.screentime.com/software/mprojector/flas.html#mFile Russell, did find a good solution? I am trying accomplish the same thing (cross platform cd-rom with flash intro and buttons that open a dialog box to save files off the cd). The two software programs I have found so far that claim to be able to do this with Flash are Sceentime and Zinc. I think you mean mProjector which is published by Screentime, and indeed it will what you want if you know the path to you source file you can just call the chooseFile method to get a destination path and the mFile.copFile to copy it over here is the chooseFile method http://www.screentime.com/software/mprojector/docs/mSys_chooseFile.htm set the saveFile flag to true to make it a save dialog - the return value of this function is you destination path then call http://www.screentime.com/software/mprojector/docs/mFile_copyFile.htm copy file to move it over. There are also functions to determine where the source file are relative the application SignatureJohn Pattenden Screentime Media Flash Screen Saver, Application and Wallpaper tools http://www.screentime.com |
