ActionScript 2.0 :: CS3 XML Variable Doesn't Carry Into Second Bit Of Code
Nov 23, 2009
Flash CS3, AS 2.0 so I have an XML file containing the number 72, and this script:
Code:
var imageNumber = new XML();
imageNumber.load("imageNumber.xml");
Then later, this script:
[Code]...
The problem is, the variable doesn't carry into my second bit of code. I can add a button and use trace to display the correct variable in the output box, so I know it's getting into Flash. The problem is that it's not applying itself to the second piece of script. Triple checked that the code with by putting in the number manually and using a normal variable, only when I use the XML file as a variable does it refuse to work. I'm very new to Flash so sorry if I've left any important information out, but can anybody shed some light on this?

why my i variable in the script below doesn't carry through to the "mySubMenus[i].alphaTo (100,1);" line. When I trace, it returns a value of 3, but it's working for myButtons[i]. There must be a way to pass that [i] value someplace else,BTW, this is a variation of one of the mc_tween samples.
var myButtons = [this.servicesBtn, this.portfolioBtn, this.peopleBtn];
var mySubMenus = [this.servicesLevel2, this.portLevel2, this.peopleLevel2];

I'm trying to pass the contents of variable playnoyes to the long line of code below to decide whether or not to autoplay the flash movie, but doing it as I have below, the resultant line of code has the variable in quotes and therefore the code doesn't execute it as expected. My question is, how can I pass the variable so that the resulting line of code doesn't have the quotes around the variable value.
var playnoyes='true';

I've made a button that presents a movie clip (a window) on the screen, you can move this window by grabbing the tab on the top of the window. But when you exit this window and open another (duplicate is made), you cannot move the window at all.My guess is that the code is lost when the duplicate is made, can someone tell me how to transfer my code to all my duplicates? For more info, visit I sent this about a year ago, and still havent got a responce.

I run a demo code,it extends Sprite,like follows:
public class Vehicle extends Sprite{ protected var _position:Vector2D; public function Vehicle(){ _position = new Vector2D(); draw(); } protected function draw():void{ graphics.clear(); graphics.lineStyle(0); [code]....
I don't understand following code,because I only define _position and don't define position variable,why I can use position.x? x = position.x; y = position.y;

I've literally been staring at this for 7 hours. I'm missing something.I have two movie clips on the stage. The instance name of the first is puzzleAK. The instance name of the second is pieceAK.The first is linked to a custom class called GeoPuzzle. The second is linked to a custom class called GeoPiece.The code compiles but throws an error (as explained).The code in the main timeline:
puzzleAK.fullName = "Alaska";puzzleAK.abbrev = "AK";puzzleAK.isLocked = false;trace ("made it through puzzle definitions: " + puzzleAK.fullName + " " + puzzleAK.abbrev + " " + puzzleAK.isLocked);

I was wondering how you can make variable code within code, for example, normally, you can use this["blabla"+variable]; to make the code say blablavariable. But now i want to make new variables by using this code, within a for loop [using teller1 as the increasing value] this["var ringsegment_mc:Ring_"+teller1+"=new [Ring_"+teller1+"]()"]; which i basically want to have say:var ringsegment_mc:Ring_1=new Ring_1();
but this doesnt work, it doesnt make a variable called ringsegment_mc. why I want to do this, is because i need to make an add child which makes 16 parts, from 16 different movieclips.

I must be missing a capital or something because this just doesn't work.
Code:
import flash.text.*;
import flash.display.*;
import flash.net.*;
[code]....
Note: No runtime errors. No nothing. The text shows up entirely unformatted. I even made an HTML document and imported the same exact css file into that, and it worked fine... It just doesn't work in flash.

For some reason my buttons don't work when I stop on frame 34. Everything else works, but when I stop on 34 the button/actions won't work anymore. I have no idea why. I checked everything that I can think of. The buttons are labeled correctly on the frame.
Here is the code:
stop();
button01.onRelease = function() {
if (_root._currentframe == 1) {
gotoAndPlay(2);

I have used a pop up window code several times before and now it doesn't seem to work. I've tried in several different movies now and when pressing the button it simply flashed the page and moves a little, but won't actually pop up to the page it's pointed to.Here's the code:
on (release) {
getURL ("javascript:NewWindow=window.open('http://www.angelfire.com/in/HansonArtGallery/2newpaintingbig.html','newWin','width=650,height=6 50,left=0,top=0,toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars= No,status=No,resizable=No,fullscreen=No'); NewWindow.focus(); void(0);");

I have a Rectangle Box called (Panel1_mc).And inside it there is a button called (BoardMessage1_btn). When I click on this button, the Rectange Panel should move upwards. Right now it is on the bottom of the page. The following code throws an 1010 error:
Panel1_mc.BoardMessage1_btn.addEventListener(Mouse Event.CLICK, clickSection);
function clickSection(evtObj:MouseEvent){
var Panel1Tween:TweenMax = new TweenMax(Panel1_mc, 6, {y:450, delay:1, ease:Strong.easeOut});
}
What is wrong with this code?

i have a button which should generate two different variables, but it only carries out 1 function and not the other. If i put another button calling the second function it just overwrites the mc generated from the first function.
Also, I need the functions to be on the main timeline as i also need to remove the mcs when needed.

in my script, when a button is clicked it loads a movie clip from the library onto the stage
but what that movie clip does is supposed to be dependant on what button is being pressed. however that movie clip being loaded onto the stage doesn't seem to recognize or load any of the variables from the stage.
its as if, since the movie clip does not exist when the fla is initially run, the movie clip doesnt recognize previously existing variables.. or doesnt recognize any variables outside of itself

I have a movieclip called MC1 and within that 2 frames each containing movieclips called MC2 and MC3. The user can change between the two movieclips and MC3 has a animation within it. Once MC3 is activated, its animation plays but when the user changes to MC2 and then to MC3, the animation is back at the beginning, I want it to keep going even when the user changes to MC2 so when he switches back, the animation is still carrying on.
So basically, I need to know if there is way to have the movieclip playing even if it is not on stage.

I know im a pain asking you all questions about c++ but we all know your all good enough to do anything so thought id give it a shot. I'm creating a naughts and crosses game (tic tac toe for you americans!!) for uni and am getting a little stuck! The game runs and a winner can be decided but when the game ends i want it to ask whether another game wants to be played.
Then i want it to carry on as a new game and loop until the players dont want to play again. i've included the source file in notepad form also could anyone tell me how to carry out a check on the array so that once a value has been entered into that co-ordinate (O or X) another value cannot overwrite it???
