here is a parent swf loads a child swf file and there is a button/movieclip in child swf e.g childBtn_mc, now whener i click this childbtn_mc in parent swf (as child swf is loaded in its parent swf) i want to through a function in parent swf.
for ex.
child swf AS:
childBtn_mc.onRelease = childBtnClicked;
function childBtnClicked(){
trace("calling from child");
[Code]....
how do I call a function defined in a child ... in AS2 (flash 8.0)
I have this situation: Movieclip "Washformulas" (not in root but works 'standalone' from itsself) having a couple of instances of "Bullet"-movieclips, named "Bullet1", Bullet2,...
For simplicity "Bullet" is 1 frame, and has this code :
ActionScript Code:
function testf()
{
trace("test");
}
How do I call that function from "Washformulas"?
Bullet1.testf();
I have a function (let's call it testFunction for right now ) on the actions layer in the main timeline There is a movie clip with 15 frames long in the library
i want to add a child of the movie clip on the stage, and call testFunction when it finishes playing
how can i do? i tried to call it in the child but nothing works
Or, is there any way to show child on the stage for only a period of time like 1 second and then remove it automaticly?
I'm trying to call a function in one child class (Circle.as) from another child class (Wedge.as). Circle.as is instantiated by the document class (Tree.as), and Wedge.as is instantiated by Circle.as. How do I do this? This is my code:

Is it possible to call a child function from within the parent? I know to go child > parent, you can do parentApplication.functionName(parameters);, but what about going the other way... that is parent > child?

MovieClip(this.parent.parent).parentFunction();

how can i call a function in a child swf that has been loaded in externally? basically ive got a holder and then i loop through a list and add that many slides to the holder each slide has an external swf loaded in and one of them i need to be able to call a function from the parent
View 1 RepliesI have a main MovieClip that creates a new instance of an imported class which is a page in the application. This class tries to call a function on the main MovieClip and it's not finding it. I've done this in the past without any problems with separate swf files and loaders, and with movieclips in a library. I'm at a loss on how to resolve this. Here's what I'm doing (simplified for posting):
[Code]....
I have two child classes ClassA and ClassB both inherit the same base class.
I also have a function that has a parameter which could be an instance of either child classes.
function Test(instance):void //instance is either a ClassA or ClassB instance
{
instance.DoSomething();
}
However, when I run the test, it's always the BaseClass.DoSomething() get called. How can I use the same function (DoSomething()), but call child class function instead of the base class one?
I have a child swf loaded that needs to receive an array that the parent creates in a function. The child swf must be the one to call that function.

Lets say I have a Main Document Class called Main. I also have a child class called childClass that call a function from the Main class and is also imported in the Main class. How should I call the function? I tried this , but when calling the function, it's getting me error.

I'm trying to use ExternalInterface.Call to call a JavaScript function to launch a lightbox window. So far I have this:
AS3:
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("launchLB", "" + aUrl + "");
JavaScript:
function launchLB(url) {
alert(url);
[Code]....
I get the alert but I can't get the lightbox window to display. When my as code makes the ExternalInterface call I get what looks like a page refresh and a blank browser window.
I have an enterFrame action that I use on a graphic:
[Code]....
Because I want to use the above code more than a few times, I tried to make it a function.
[Code]....
But for some reason the function call does not work when I call it via an action on a graphic where initially the code worked when it was explicitly written and not called as a function.
Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
fadeOut();
}
why this is not working.I have an application with a new class I just created. The class loads, but will not call it's own internal function.
package com.parkerandkent.components.classic.photogallery {
import caurina.transitions.Tweener;
import flash.display.MovieClip;[code]....
"Test 2" will not fire here.And I get this error message:
CallTag.as , Line 10 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method init.
I need to get a javascript var in my Flash application. I like to be able to just set a variable in the javascript (client constraints) rather than define a function.
Can this be done? I am trying to use the ExternalInterface.call()
AS:
ExternalInterface.call("function(){return window.someVar}", null);
JS:
var someVar = "Test";
This does not work and I suspect it is because the ExternalInterface.call() does not like the anonymous function.
I have a function defined in JavaScript like so:
function fadeBack() {
alert("fadeBack called");
};
I call that function from my Flash file like so:
import flash.external.*;
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("fadeBack");
This works in both Safari and Chrome, but for some reason Firefox won't ever call the function. Still, I can't figure this out. How can I fix it?
Does anyone know if there is a way to call a dispatchEvent call from inside of a static function?

I am trying to make a JS function call from a child swf, but I am running into issues when the child swf is loaded on a different domain than the parent.
Here's what my scenario looks like:
my HTML test page is on domainA.com and loads the parent swf, which is located in [URL].
The parent swf loads a child swd located in domainC.com.
After the child swf is loaded I want to make a JS function call, but when I call ExternalInterface.call("myJSFunction", "params"), the JS code never gets executed.
When I placed all of the files under the same domain, everything works fine.
