 Test .swf Count Down Days to Election 2006.11.07

Days to Election November 7th 2006

Testing
''
1. Works independent but not in post, click for file: ../nov7elec.swf
2. and good in ../nov7elec.html

will test further, using files:

../upload2/nov7elec.php (echo Server Time in Seconds)
../upload2/nov7elec.swf (converts to Days and Display.)

----------------
3. Must be a timing issue within post/thread, or permissions to/for post ??

4. Gadget Wizard:
Someday when you get time, checking SWF timing, some extra SWF's I upLoaded which I'm unable to delete.
../upload2/nov7elecA.swf
../upload2/nov7elecB.swf
../upload2/nov7elecC.swf
../upload2/nov7elecD.swf
../upload2/nov7elecE.swf

Ain't it good I give you things to own Rolling Eyes

Regards

Testing the swf again.

Interesting. It runs fine from here which is the same place the one above is coming from.
http://www.upstateforums.com/upload2/nov7elec.swf

Well it did work fine, now even the linked one isn't.

I deleted those other files for you.

 Thanks

O,

Thanks for deleting those unnecessary files.

Thought it might be nice for a posting in the Politics Thread if test good.

Since you've tested some Flash Movies "SWF's" you might give me a tip or two.

The file "nov7elec.swf" is 56w x 48h, and should resize nicely to any aspect ratio of 7/6 (56/48). Dynamic text using local user machine "_sans" font at 36pt.

I even think it adventuresome of GW to allow upload of *.php files.
EDITED Post here

I haven't used Adobe Macromedia Flash since version 4 years ago. The SWF was built with SWiSHmax

PHP script/code:
Code:
<?php /* Created on: 9/14/2006 */ ?>
<html>
<body>
<?php
$nowSec = date(U);
$estSec = $nowSec;
$nov7Sec = mktime(0, 0, 01, 11, 07, 2006);
$voteSec = $nov7Sec - 7200; /* server offset to EST midnight */
echo "&currSec=".$estSec."&nov7Sec=".$voteSec."&";
?>
</body>
</html>

And SWF (swish) script/code: 10 Frames per second. One TextField "daysRemain"
Code:
onload(){
    currSec = "";
    nov7Sec = "";
    currTime = "";
    voteTime = "";
    //
    loadVariables("http://www.upstateforums/upload2/nov7elec.php");
}
onframe(3){
    if(nov7Sec == ""){prevFrameAndPlay();}
    currMsec = Number(currSec) * 1000;
    nov7Msec = Number(nov7Sec) * 1000;
}
onframe(4){
    diffMsec = nov7Msec - currMsec;
    remDays = Math.floor(diffMsec / 86400000);
    daysRemain.text = toString(remDays);
}
onframe(5){
    stop();
}


It's got to be a timing issue within post/thread, because outside works OK for me. Could be permissions.

Thanks again.

I got this message when I tried to open the php file:

"The requested URL /upload2/aeioun-php-info.php was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."

I'm getting it 404 now also. At first it gave me all server "phpinfo();"

I don't like telling GW what to make available - but - allowing upload of *.php could be more than adventuresome. Exclamation

I've already deleted that file.

php, html, xml. or any other executable code is not allowed. It appears the filter is not working properly for .php so I've temp suspended uploads for that reason. I'll get that corrected soon.

Thanks for bringing that to my attention Aeioun.

Flash is supported here and has always worked embedded. Not sure why that file isn't running. I'll take a look and see if I can find a problem.

All the other .swf files I've tried is working embedded inside or outside of the forums.

There are a few here you can test.

There must be something different about that one..

I suspected you were deleting the *.php and *.html

Definitely should NOT allow anything executable to be uploaded,
it's more than adventuresome Exclamation

Flash-SWFs seem to work great here, it's just the one I uploaded was using server time via php echo.

I'll do one that uses the viewers computer local time with a warning their clock must be accurate.

In the mean time if somebody ain't got enough fingers, they can go to
Count Down to Election 2006

O.K. - You owe me a "cup of coffee" someday.
