I have a swf with some html copy below it. It should (seemingly) expand when clicking the button and contract when clicked again.
I need to swap the z-Index of the divs containing the SWF and the html copy. The swf is embeded using SWFObject.
I have two simple javascript methods for re-assigning the SWF div’s z-index, but in FireFox these from the actionscript to the javascript methods are not getting through. It works in Safari and in IE (version ?) on the pc.
Download all source files here.
The ActionScript looks like this:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.external.ExternalInterface;
var expandedBool:Boolean = false;
bt.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClicked);
bt.label = "putFlashOnTop";
function onClicked(evt:MouseEvent) {
if (expandedBool){
gotoAndStop("closed");
expandedBool = false;
if (ExternalInterface.available) {
ExternalInterface.call("putFlashOnBottom");
} else {
tf.text = "ExternalInterface not available";
}
bt.label = "putFlashOnTop";
} else {
gotoAndStop("open");
expandedBool = true;
if (ExternalInterface.available) {
ExternalInterface.call("putFlashOnTop");
} else {
tf.text = "ExternalInterface not available";
}
bt.label = "putFlashOnBottom";
}
}
import flash.external.ExternalInterface;
var expandedBool:Boolean = false;
bt.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClicked);
bt.label = "putFlashOnTop";
function onClicked(evt:MouseEvent) {
if (expandedBool){
gotoAndStop("closed");
expandedBool = false;
if (ExternalInterface.available) {
ExternalInterface.call("putFlashOnBottom");
} else {
tf.text = "ExternalInterface not available";
}
bt.label = "putFlashOnTop";
} else {
gotoAndStop("open");
expandedBool = true;
if (ExternalInterface.available) {
ExternalInterface.call("putFlashOnTop");
} else {
tf.text = "ExternalInterface not available";
}
bt.label = "putFlashOnBottom";
}
}

Lamplighters? They are have super posh camp and fancy bloody marry parties.
Out house guys? That’s a paid position. And there ability to get away with driving a truck around while sipping on a bottle of whisky is quite limited. So – hardcore, indeed. But not so piratey.
