ActionScript 2.0 :: Another "Loading External Swf. Not Working Properly"
May 20, 2009
I have and swf. named "headlines.swf" that uses xml and loads txt and images located on a server. And I have another swf. named "loader.swf", this is empty, and only contains an empty movieClip and emptyMc.loadMovie ("url.to.headlines.swf"), and is located on another server. So none of them is being viewed local. When viewing the "loader.swf", everything that is made in flash in headlines.swf shows, but nothing of the txt and images from the xml. I have googled, but cant figure it out.

So I have this slideshow, meant to just cycle through 50 or so images, loading each up for a few seconds before it goes away. It obtains the information for the images from a database.For all my testing, it works as it should in IE, Firefox, Opera, and Safari on Windows.Yet I'm repeatedly told by someone that it does not work at all on Safari on Mac, but instead just forever shows the loading movieclip I have in.Sadly, I don't have a Mac and I don't know anyone, save for this person, who owns one, thus I'm unsure what is going on, let alone how to solve it.You can view it there. I'm just at a loss for why it's having issues. Is it just a single case, or is it Safari on Mac in general, or perhaps Mac itself in general?

I have a listBox and I want to take data from a php file and insert it in my list box. But I am doing something wrong, because it's not working.
The php file retrives data in the following format:
echo "nrsongs=" . $nr_songs;
$i=0;
foreach($song_ids as $song_id){
$i++;

I'm having trouble with this script. I have an external text file, from which all of the text on the page is loaded. I also have a series of thumbnails, but I need to have different numbers on each page, so I figured I'd put the number of thumbnails into the text file too and then run a loop to create the thumbnails and buttons dynamically. The loop works fine, until I try to use the value I have loaded from the text file. I think it is something to do with it being in a separate function, but I have tried making it _global.counter, I have tried putting the whole for() loop inside the myData.onLoad function. Basically, I have tried everything I can think of and still the loop does not run when the counter value is specified externally.

I'm trying to load a jpg from [URL]. I load if from my computer, it works.. load it online, doesn't. And it doesn't give me any errors or anything. The completeListener is not working! Is there a problem with flash loading from other domains or what?.. If I test it, it shows in Safari's activity that the jpg was loaded, but it won't display it.

i tried following the duplicate mc tutorial, however the part on putting the code in a frame to get it to duplicate on load doesn't seem to work for me
here's my code in the frame:
stop();
amount = 5;
while(amount>0) {
[Code]....
apparently the clip only gets duplicated once where's the problem?

I'm trying to do in this case is populate a List UIComponent that I created with information that I get back from the PHP file. For some reason the loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, userOnLoad) isn't working and my program never gets any farther than that.
Here is my code:
import fl.controls.*;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import fl.managers.StyleManager;
DECLARATIONS
var backgroundArea:Sprite = new Sprite();
var loginArea:Sprite = new Sprite();
var userArea:Sprite = new Sprite();

I've noticed that by using isNaN(number), it doesn't always return true when needed. In fact, by using:
var bool:Boolean = isNaN(parseFloat(numberStr));trace(bool);
It will return true with:
-sdfda
$%&$
asdf
BUT, false (when it should be true) with:
230asdfs
230sdfasd.50
It seems like the letters between the numbers aren't even considered and it returns false when it should in fact return true... If it starts with a letter, it returns true, otherwise, with a number, it's false...I need to check whether or not there are any non-numeric (except "dot") in the parameter "numberStr" (a String).

I've implemented an internal preloader in my project but it's not working properly. I use Simulate Download but the preloader only shows after something like 80% is completed, which sort of destroys the purpose of the whole thing.
import flash.events.ProgressEvent;
stop();
function preloader(progressEvt:ProgressEvent):void{
var totalBytes:Number = progressEvt.bytesTotal;
var loadedBytes:Number = progressEvt.bytesLoaded;

The stop() is not working properly as if it were being ignored. I have even recreated a dummy flash document the stop() did work, however, it is still not working on the original design.

i've been going over this code all day and I have no idea what's wrong with it. I'm doing a similiar operation a little higher and that one works so I have no idea why this one doesn't. All I'm trying to do in this case is populate a List UIComponent that I created with information that I get back from the PHP file. For some reason the loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, userOnLoad) isn't working and my program never gets any farther than that.

import fl.managers.StyleManager;

I have created an image gallery for a client using actionscript 2 and xml. I have the gallery pulling in the images and text from the xml file and displaying correctly. The problem is the rollover/rollout affect I need to do. The image need an itunes affect flip, so the image looks like it flips to display a description then when you roll out it should flip back to show the image. The flash so far can be seen here [URL]
The flash works by pulling the image in from xml and putting it inside a place holder MC inside another movieclip. This movie clip contains a mask which creates the flip affect and shows a white box containing text over the image. When you rollover this works fine, but when I roll out the image, and title have disappeared when the white box is removed.
At the moment I have left the rollover affect out (as you can see on the link) but for my own sanity I would love to know why I can't get this to work. I probably havent explained this very well so I have attached a demo of how I am trying to get the rollover affect to work.

I have had this problem for a long time and have not been able to fix it. I am using ActionScript 1, although if you can help me using AS2 I should be able to change it. I have a static movie clip with no code referring to it called "ship". Its center point is 275, 324.9. I have a series of planets coming down from the top of the screen and I need to check whether you "died" or not. The planets movie clips are contained inside blank movie clips that are there so thre registration point does not change. I was using the code
Code:
if(this.hitTest(275, 324.9, true)){
gotoAndPlay("gameover");
}

the code which works over stage, is not working properly over a movieclip..sample, i have many objects to stay at different indexes at flash..with that code block below. I add 300 mc's to stage,
Code:
for (var j:Number = 0; j<300; j++) {
var mc2:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
stage.addChildAt(mc2, j);
}
TO be able to change indexes with different items.. i have random movieclips which have to be placed indexes between 5 and 300.. And everything goes great when i do this directly at stage..But when i do this with a movieclip.. example;
Code:
for (var i:Number = 0; i<300; i++) {
var mc3:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
my_mc.addChildAt(mc3, i);
}
i can't see the movieclips inside.. but i know they are at their right indexes..but somehow they are getting behind those fake movieclips..

So I have built a contact form out of AS2 and PHP. PHP 5 is enabled on my server, so that's not a problem. I think there is a slight error within my code somewhere. What happens is once online, you fill out the form and hit post, it goes to the "error sending email!".
