Detect Flash Player Version | Actionscript based detection method (as2)

looking for this in as3!? look no more Detect Flash Player Version | Actionscript based detection method (as3)

Overview

Recently I had a requirement that I had to detect which version of the flash player was currently installed. This is a normal thing, we do it all the time when embedding flash into html, we detect which version of the player is installed and if the user has an old version they are invited to upgrade…

But what about finding the flash version from within flash? An actionscript based detection method? I hadn’t ever thought about doing that…

It turns out it is very simple. From adobe I found the flash detection kit. Which had a lot of code I didn’t need. I only want to know what version of the player is running, not forward to upgrade sites and redirect… So I made this little testing file to save and share what I learned:

Steps

Internally flash knows it’s version number as $version. So to read it we must evaluate that variable.

eval(“$version”);

This returns a string, 3 letter operating system, a space, and then the version number as four numbers seperated with commas.
I display the $version and to split it out I split the string on the space, and then split the version number with the comma delimiter and display them all.

Example

Here’s what mine is (gif):

Free IQ Player Updated!

Here’s a post from the Free IQ Team!

We’ve been busy at Free IQ and just released our new video player!

Check it out by watching Brad Fallon on the vision of Free IQ.
Or see circlecube at Free IQ!

[kml_flashembed movie=”http://freeiq.com/ipprime.swf” height=”338″ width=”450″ fvars=” playlistURL = http://www.freeiq.com/vidxml.dhtml?lx=bradfallononthevisionoffreeiq ; autoplay = false ; embed = 1 ” allowfullscreen=”true” fversion=”9″ useexpressinstall=”true” allowscriptaccess=”always” /]

At the surface, the player looks much the same, but as you dig into the secondary functions, you’ll see a slew of enhancements made with you and all freeiq-ers in mind.

The layout has been updated to be more dynamic, more readable and web 2.0 friendly. The graphics got a make-over.

The updates to the playlist have cleaned up the interface and give helpful information about the content. We still get the ReviewRank for each item, and also we can see our personal viewing history, a feature we’re calling the ‘high water mark’. You can see how far into a video you’ve been. This high water mark is also shown in the scrub bar, for returning to where you left off quickly, just click the yellow arrow to return. Also the video currently being played in the player is specified as ‘Now Watching’ (how original).

Playlist

The author window still displays the author’s portrait, biography and links to the author page. The author biography may contain html- such as links, which help viewers learn more about authors.

Author

The IQPON window connects viewers to providers by giving users access to the content provider’s services!

IQPON

Sharing options have been improved greatly!

Users may embed content on their own site directly from the player now! By choosing options for auto play and format user’s copy embed codes straight from the player, and paste it into their own site. The normal format uses javascript to ensure maximum compatibility with different browsing software, and the the extra simple format is for embedding content into sites which restrict javascript, such as MySpace and a handful of others, so there is always a way to embed content into your very own space.

Embed

Sharing by email is much faster now, as you can send to multiple people at once directly through the player itself (just separate the email addresses with a comma).

Email

Sharing with the web is just as easy! You can copy the link or click your preferred social bookmarking site. Social bookmarking capabilities are built into the player, so with one click you can bookmark content to any of a number of social bookmarking sites (del.icio.us, digg, furl, google bookmarks, magnolia, reddit, stumble upon, technorati, windows live favorites and yahoo! bookmarks) with more to come.

Social Bookmarking

All these methods are used to share content and are useful no matter where the player is embedded!

This player release features updates to the Full Screen mode as well. To take full advantage of the screen size we stretched the control across the bottom of the screen! The control tray will slide away after a few seconds giving access to full screen video playback. To bring the controls back, just more the mouse again.

Volume controls are updated for faster more intuitive interactive control.

By using the internal menu (just right-click to access it) you have access to all options in the player.

Menu

Also updated with this release is the integration with Google Analytics! There is new tracking built into the player and best news of all is that the player now supports both versions of the Google Analytics Tracking Code. So whether you’ve updated to the new tracking system or still use the Legacy code, this player logs interactions with the player to your google analytics reports! It will tell you how much people are watching your videos, which ones and how users interact with the player on your site. We’ll post about that later, once you’ve gotten used to your new player!

Another point to mention… if you’re a Free IQ regular and have already embedded content onto your site, the updates are automatic. You have nothing to do to enable these updates! It’s already done!

Enjoy the updates, we put a lot into it!

Let us know any suggestions you have for making the Free IQ video player even better – for you!

Men Circles | Interactive Experiment

Here’s a graphic of a circle of men. You may recognize the outline from any public restroom. They’re standing in a corny circle holding hands, like an all over the world theme., let’s just hope they all washed their hands…

I made the graphic a while ago, and have been wanting to interactive-ize it. I’ve really been wanting to play with elasticity, throwing things and snapping to a point… Although I’m still thinking about a version where I’d spin the objects rather than just throw them, I figured I’d put it up for any feedback that comes.

[kml_flashembed publishmethod=”dynamic” fversion=”9.0.0″ movie=”https://circlecube.com/circlecube/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2008/02/MenCircle.swf” width=”550″ height=”550″ targetclass=”flashmovie”]

[/kml_flashembed]

The different pieces all rotate differently and it changes if you are dragging or ‘holding’ them. Then you can press the anchor (gray) button to toggle the snap. The objects will all center around the anchor and spring into place (elasticity applied to position and rotation). And then the interactivity changes and rather than dragging and dropping them, you push and bump or throw them. It almost turns into a game…

Distance Formula in Actionscript Tutorial | Pythagorean theorem

Overview

To find the distance of any two points on an axis is easy, just subtract them. But what about when you have to find the distance of something not on the axis (a diagonal)? Find the distance between any two points with the Pythagorean theorem. This is an old problem we can look to history and find the Pythagorean theorem and Pythagoras, the Greek we’ve named this after. His theorem states that ‘In any right triangle, the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares whose sides are the two legs (the two sides that meet at a right angle).’
pythagorean img

You may remember it as the formula you memorized in geometry or algebra class ‘a squared plus b squared equals c squared’
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
pythag equ

Okay, but how does that help in flash? You want to find the distance between point a and point b. Well c would be the distance between the two points. We know the formula, solving for c.
c = square root of (a^2 + b^2).
pythag equ 2
c = Math.sqrt(Math.pow(a, 2)+Math.pow(b, 2));
Math.sqrt()
is the square root function, so Math.sqrt(4)=2.
Math.sqrt(x) computes and returns the square root of x.
Math.pow() is the power function, so Math.pow(4, 2)=16 (4 squared). Math.pow(x, y) computes and returns x to the power of y.

You say I remember using this for triangles and stuff, I just want to know the distance between two points, there’s no triangles.
Well, there actually is a triangle we can draw. Go from your first, along an axis (this makes one side), and the other point, along the other axis (this is another side), and you’ll see that the distance you’re looking for is the third side of the triangle (the hypotenuse).

Example

Here’s a quick interactive flash file to show the idea.

CSS and HTML WYSIWYG in Flash | Open Source Example

Overview:

Using what I learned with the Actionscript Javascript Communication Tutorial, and pushing it a little further I’ve set up this example of how flash renders html and css. This is basically a wysiwyg (What you see is what you get) html editor! Natively flash only handles some html and css. Many people have enhanced it’s capabilities with projects and Classes, but I made this to show what is accepted by default as far as html and css is concerned. I know there are specs and many lists about what will work, but to me the best way to know if my code will work is to try and see…
I’ve made this app so if I have a question, I just paste in my html/css and send it to the swf to see it rendered live. This saved me a few headaches, so I thought other might enjoy it as well… So here it is.

Example:

Render your own html and or css in flash. htmlToFlash.html
Here is the flash rendering of some dummy text as html with css applied
htmltoflash thumb

Here’s the html interface where I paste in the html and css.
htmltoflash thumb 2
Each supported css property has a corresponding actionscript property, but the naming convention is a little different for css in actionscript. Each actionscript property name is derived from the corresponding CSS property name; the hyphen is omitted and the subsequent character is capitalized. So for example: ‘font-weight’ becomes ‘fontWeight’.

Download:

Here’s the open source files if you want to get your hands dirty.

Let me know if you improve this or even have any questions about it!

Again, note there are only certain HTMl and CSS supported by flash, follow the links for more info.

Actionscript Javascript Communication | ExternalInterface call and addCallback Tutorial

UPDATE: there’s a newer post about this same thing (actionscript javascript communication – but in as3)! I encourage you to check it out!

Overview:

Using ExternalInterface.addCallback() we can expose an actionscript function and make it available to javascript. This would be helpful to have your webpage with embedded flash communicate to your flash swf file and even control it with javascript! Say we wanted to have buttons in the html page that would control an object in the flash. Communication is a two-way road so wouldn’t it be great to be able to go the other way as well, you can! That is the main function of ExternalInterface! In this example/tutorial I will explain both directions of communication with flash and javascript! Communication between flash and javascript isn’t just a myth or mystery!

Steps:

  1. Be sure to import flash.external.*;
  2. Set up the javascript to actionscript lane of your communication road. (ExternalInterface.addCallback(methodName, instance, method);)
  3. Write your javascript function.
  4. Set up the actionscript to javascript lane. (ExternalInterface.call(functionNameInJavascript);)

We will follow the text’s journey on our road of communication…

The One way: I type in ‘Johnny Appleseed’ in the html text box and press the Send Text To Flash button. The onclick javascript event finds the flash element and calls it’s function (sendTextFromHtml) and then clears the text in the html box. This function has been set up and is exposed to javascript (in actionscript lines 4-7) with the methodName ‘sendTextFromHtml’ while the method it calls is recieveTextFromHtml() in the actionscript. So ‘Johnny Appleseed’ is received as the parameter of the recieveTextFromHtml() function and is assigned to the text of the theText text box.

And back: Now I delete ‘Johnny Appleseed’ since he’s only a fable and enter ‘Paul Bunyan’ in the swf text box and press the Send From Flash to Javascript button. This calls the onRelease function associated with this button. ExternalInterface.call calls the ‘recieveTextFromFlash’ function in the javascript of the page and passes ‘Paul Bunyan’ as the parameter. The javascript function finds the html text box using getElementById() and assigns the parameter to the value of that text box!

This technique will even work if you’re not sending folklore character down the road.

Integrate Google Analytics with Flash | Tutorial

The results are in and the requested topic is “Integrate Google Analytics into Flash.” The poll has been reset and is ready to recieve your post requests, so keep voting! It’s located in the side bar!

Overview:

Tracking your visitors and attempting to better understand them is a large part of even having content on the web. Since the days of visitor counters displayed proudly on every site, along with dozens of animated gifs to the days when site were designed solely with efficiency and conversion in mind. There are many services that will do this for a fee and other that will do it for free. A popular free web analytics tool is provided by Google. Google Analytics is started by including JavaScript on each page the user wishes to track. This JavaScript loads larger files from the Google webserver and then sets variables with the user’s account number. This JavaScript is used to track and log page views and visitors interaction with the site. This post discusses what to do if your site includes a lot of interactive flash elements you wish to track as well. With the little Google has published related to this(New Code, Old Code), I’ve tried to fill in.
Note: This explains how to set up to track flash events as page views, which does have a drawback- it inflates your pageviews in the analytics and in turn may skew your data. Il’l beposting again soon about how to use then new event tracking, which would track flash events not as pageviews, but as events and thus not inflate the page view count.

UPDATE

I now have an Event Tracking Tutorial as well with actionscript updates!
Event Tracking With Google Analytics & Flash/Actionscript Integration Tutorial

Steps:

  1. If you haven’t already, install Google Analytics on your site. (Note that your analytics tracking code must be placed on the page above the flash call(s) to _trackPageview or urchinTracker)
  2. Determine which events in flash you want to track.
  3. Place in the external.interface code in your actionscript at the specific event(s).
  4. Watch the events get logged in you Google Analytics Reports!

Example:

Here’s a simple example, say you want to track how many times an object is clicked or dragged by a user or how many times it bounces (something that could be tracked but doesn’t necessarily have any required user interaction). In this example flash file I have a ball which bounces off the walls and users can click to drag and even throw it, press the spacebar to create more balls and toggle the gravity on and off with the arrow keys (up is weightlessness, and down is gravity). Each of these events has code to communicate with Google Analytics JavaScript and track the events. I made my own function to call the google analytics code. Do I hear “but sometimes I want to use the new version of Google analytics, and sometimes I want to use the old one…” Have no fear, this function works for either one, or even both. If you’re not using the newer code the calls to the functions in the new code (pageTracker._trackPageview()) will be ignored and vice versa, if you are using the new code, then the calls to the functions in the old code (urchinTracker()) will be ignored, since the functions are not defined. You can track virtually anything with this method. I’ve exaggerated greatly in this example- just to show the variety of different ways this can be used. You might want to make certain the things you track will be useful and relevant for you.

Here is the swf file, I’ve added a text box that will print all actions that are logged to Google Analytics

Customize the Right-click menu in Flash | ContextMenuItem Tutorial

Overview:

Flash give publishers the opportunity to customize the right-click menu which pops up in the swf file with a context menu item in actionscript.

ContextMenuItem
ContextMenuItem(caption:String, callbackFunction:Function, [separatorBefore:Boolean], [enabled:Boolean], [visible:Boolean])
Creates a new ContextMenuItem object that can be added to the ContextMenu.customItems array.

Steps:

The menu item has a caption, which is displayed to the user in the right click menu. It also has a a callback function handler by naming the function in the code to be invoked once the menu item is selected. It then has three boolean values which specify whether the item has a separator before it, is enabled, and is visible.

To add a new context menu item to a context menu, you simply create the context menu items and then push them into the customItems array.
You can enable or disable specific menu items, make items visible or invisible, or change the caption or callback handler associated with a menu item at any time.
In the example here the menu items about clearing and rewriting the text are set to toggle each other, so you can’t rewrite the text if it hasn’t yet been cleared and vice versa.

To further customize the context menu flash allows us to hide the built in items in the menu with hideBuiltInItems(). This hides all the built in item from view (except ‘settings’) by setting their visibility to false.

Example:
