Dynamic rich media component for ASP.Net Flash, Video and Audio controls for C# and VB.Net

ASPNetFlash JavaScript API

The ASPNetFlash JavaScript API  allows your to control the client bahvior of Flash Movies .  This API does not require ActionSpeak™ to be installed.

Please note that order of JavaScript code within the web page is important.  ASP.Net includes all JavaScript libraries in the <body> after the main form tag.  We suggest that you add your JavaScript API code towards the bottom of your HTML code.  If you wish to place JavaScript API commands in the <head> tag - you must call them on or after the window.onload event.

The API can be accessed by using the accessor function below:

 

Accessor function


ASPNetMedia.Flash(id)

Returns an object allowing you to use the JavaScript API methods to control a ASPNetFlash Flash Movie.

e.g.: ASPNetMedia.Flash("Flash1") ;

 

JavaScript API

To use the API functions, you must call them using the object returned by the Accessor function.

e.g.: ASPNetMedia.Flash("Flash1").GotoAndPlay(10);

Getting and Setting ActionScript Variables


SetFlashVariable (expression,value)

Sets the value of any variable or property in the target Flash Movie.
GetFlashVariable (expression,value)

Returns the value of any variable or property in the target Flash Movie.

 

Manipulating the Flash Object


Float(style)

Causes the Flash Movie to float above other objects on the web page in a movable, transparent layer.

Possible values of style are:
absolute - MoveTo uses absolute coordinates. The page collapses to fill the empty space.
relative - MoveTo uses relative coordinates which may be negative.
none - Ends the Float behavior.
MoveTo(x,y)

Moves the floating Flash Movie to the specified coordinates.
x and y can be defined in "px"(default) or "%".
ResizeTo (width, height)

Resizes the Flash movie in the HTML. width and height can be defined in pixels(default) or percentages.

LoadSWF(url)

Loads a new SWF, replacing the existing content. The url is relative to the ASPX page, and cannot contain the tilde ("~/") expression.

GotoAndStop(frame)

Moves the Flash timeline to a numbered or named frame, and stops()

NextFrame()

Moves the Flash timeline forward 1 frame.

Calling Flash ActionScript functions with JavaScript

CallFlashFunction (functionName [, param1][,param 2][...])

Calls a function in the target Flash Movie. 

The first parameter is the function name. Further parameters add arguments to the function call. This requiresActionSpeak™ to be installed .

e.g.:
var obj = ASPNetMedia.Flash("Flash1");
obj.CallFlashFunction("_root.gotoAndStop",1);
