I downloaded a free fla file open source for pageflip. It uses a global function which is this:
_global.mcnt = 0; //counter (used on a page where is an animation).
So now I want to put an animation in a page and i assume that i have to call or use this function. the problem is that i don't know how.
Calling jQuery Function from Flash
if we have a jQuery plugin of the following style[code]...
Could anyone point me in the right direction for how this call can be made directly or clarify if it's just not a supported operation?

I'm try to calling my sloppy global function by calling my global function class as u can see below.[code]
View 2 Repliesbasically i want this function to only be called after the 'animation'. when the hero dies hero.play() is called and this plays the death animation for the hero, i then called gameOver() which brings up a menu, but i only want the gameOver function to be called if the hero.play() animation is completed.
View 9 Repliesi cannot get exactly how to make "global function" for call them so. I want to make a function in my MainMovie.as class that can be call from MyButton.as class. Or declare a function in any class and use it from any other class.
I've found the making the functions "static" does the work, but those cannot be apply to the "this." (intances). like:

What I'd like to know is that if I could set up a eventlistener to wait until the MovieClip has reached the final frame, then fire a function.
Solution:
In the last frame of the MovieClip timeline:Code: Select all dispatchEvent(new Event("EventName"));
In the main timeline/class:Code: Select allMovieClip.addEventListener("EventName", FunctionName);
I created a menu in flash and As3, nested in a HTML page, which calls html pages by the classic way urlrequest->navigatetourl.Now I was wondering if i can make As3 call a AJAX function declared in the HTML page or at least in the swf file itself....
View 1 RepliesI'm using the following script on my website to play an mp3 in flash.To instantiate the flash object I use the swfobject framework in a javascript function. When the function is called the player is created and added to the page.
The rest of the website is in php and the page calling this script is being included with the php include function. All the other used scripts are in the php 'master'-page

I have a play-button with the id '#play1' and a stop-button with the id '#stop1' on my page. A div on the same page has the id '#status1' and a little image of a speaker is in the div.When you push the playbutton, the div with the speaker is fading in and when you push the stopbutton, the div with the speaker is fading out, very simple. And it works as I want it to do.
But the problem is, when a song is finished, the speaker doesn't fade out. Is there a simple solution for this? I already tried using the swfobject framework to get the flash player from the page and call the 'IsPlaying' on it, but I'm getting the error that 'swfobject' can't be found. All I need is a little push in the right direction or an example showing me how I can correctly get the currently playing audio player (in flash), check if it's playing and if finished, call a javascript function to led the speaker-image fade-out again.
I'm loading from my main page an external js file, with a function.
I have a flash file in the main page invoking the javascript function.
Everything worked very well until when the javascript code was in the main file, but when I moved javascript to an external file the function seems not called anymore.
So... there is no way to move the javascript code to an external file ? Or any other solution ?

I have a bunch of buttons. That when pressed call a seperate function. I do this so that if I wanted to play a video, I can put a command at the end telling it to launch to a new page automatically. Sooooo, I'd do this:
[AS]btn1.onPress = function() {
page1();
};
function page1() {
//dosomething
};[/AS]
Is there a way to give an onPress/onRelease function a command that can be called, without having to write two separate functions?
I'm trying to call a function in frame 1 of my SWF and also pass it a parameter.
I need to do this from elsewhere on the embedding HTML page using JavaScript.
For example call the function flashFunction(foo);
Does this require a listener in Flash that listens for the call, excepts "foo" and then calls the flashFunction and passes "foo" to it?
Can this be called directly without a listener?
I know there are ways to invoke javascript inside the html wrapper template for the flex application using ExternalInterface, but is it possible to reference an external html page?
View 3 Repliesi want to call a javascript function from within an embeded swf file in a html page and i'm using the ExternalInterface class. i know this function must be defined in a <script> tag in the html page. however, i want to have all my javascript code in an external file, but it doesn't work. my trial file just can't find the function, although i have my external js file linked in the header.

Can I have a counter in flash? I don't know if it's possible in ActionScript. What about a Javascript version?
View 1 RepliesI've a little static portal, with guides, no server side support. All of it is local content (shared hdd). I'd like to make a page hit counter to know which one is the most useful, and wich isn't used at all. I've browsed the net for a long time today, but everything contains php. Though it's rare, that the swf is not on a webserver. I think there's an easy way to do, just don't know how. So I'd like make a flash that can count how many times the page (or itself) has been loaded.
View 5 RepliesI have followed the tutorial on creating a live page counter in flash and somehow run into a problem to which i don't seem to be finding the solution. Perhaps someone here might be able to offer his/her generous help in solving this issue. Problem: The page counter works just fine the first time i load the page. After doing a refresh using the Ctrl & F5 key or just by clicking on the refresh button in my browser the count keeps going up (which as far as i understood from the tutorial is not supposed to happen).
When i do the same kind of refresh on the tutorial page the count stays unchanged though! I also downloaded the finished fla file but for some reason or other flash MX doesn't let me open it, giving me the error: "unexpected file format". Here is my code of the php file that i wrote for the counter.

I created a movieclip animation that only activates when i rollover the movieclip button. I further extended the frames and created another frame animation that i active only when user clicks the button. So i have a roll over/out animation and click animation in the same movieclip in the same layer. Now the problem is that when i click on the button, its supposed to take me to another page, and it does, unfortunately without the click animation. That means after i click on the button its supposed to first finish the click animation and then go to another page. But when i click, it takes me to another page without showing the click animation
SO I tried the If function, but i seem to make a mistake somewhere and i dont know what to do. Now there is no error in script, but onw there is a problem in link, the button finishes the click animation but it does not go to the tarrgeted"about" frame. here's the code

View 1 RepliesI'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:

alert(url);

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:

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?
