I was wondering, is it possible to call a function in a MC from the _root of the movie?
I have an MC called timer, linked aswith a function in it,
Code:
testFunc = function(){
trace("It Worked!");
}
On the _root in the first frame I have this,
Code:
_root.attachMovie("timer","t",5);
_root.t.testFunc();
In the code below i want to change the _root.broj and _root.logo variables inside the function which returns values from .php file. Inside the function everything works fine and all values are correct but when i trace var broj outside the function it's still 0.
var result_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
var send_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
var broj:Number=0;
var logo = new Array();
[Code].....
I want to edit a variable in _root from a function
it should look like this:
Code:
var index:number = 0;
function fnct (root_counter){
[Code]....
i have a:
Code:
_root.onMouseDown = function(){
someAction
[code].....
im lookin to make this so that the points taken from the _root.cargo are multipled by 10 and added to _root.totalscore
[Code]...
if a condition is true, then:_root.(MC with instance name that is the value of "_root.eelmine").nextFrame(); is this correct?_root._root[eelmine].nextFrame();

I just recently began migrating from AS2 to AS3, and I have of course realized that I can no longer move the "_root" by changing the _x and _y positions of the _root (which no longer exists in AS3). How can I do this in AS3 (specifying _x, _y, _z possibly of the "_root")?
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to get this one function to be able to call many functions (not at once, but call many possible ones)In other words, I'm trying to get this variable to be named as a function. That way, this one variable can create multiple functions.example:
actionscript Code:
class Thing extends MovieClip{ var funcvar; var othervar; function onLoad() funcvar = "YYY"; othervar = "ZZZ"; function onEnterFrame()

I hope that this is possible. I can't seem to find any info on it on the web. I need to call a function from within a function. I'm not sure if there is a name for doing this that I don't know of?This is some example code of what I'm trying to achieve:
Actionscript Code:
someTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, functionWithin);function mainFunction():void{ function functionWithin():void }}
[code]....
how can i open "insider" function from "start_function"?
ActionScript Code:

This result is then echoed to a Flash SWF during embedding with SWFObject. I now want to call this PHP page that makes the query from a javascript function like so - one change I have made to the PHP is that instead of storing the result in a variable $my_result I am echoing the result.

I am making a character walk. This code will make him wobble to the right and when thats done it will trigger him to wobble to the left and then call the function again to continue the loop.I can get the loop to work fine by calling the function but how do I STOP the function? Also I want to call it later on. Is there a way to start and stop a function?
function wobble()
{
var ws = .1;
var dis = 1;

View 6 Repliesthe *who.say* in the following function refers to a var displayed inside a dynamic text box.
when I tryed to call the function twice, from the same MC, only with different Who's and What's, it didn't work. only one call displayed the text.

I'm writing a class that utilizes the whole screen resolution and need a movieClip to adjust itself in accordance to that. That "almost work". The problem is that I cannot call functions when the resize listener kicks (onResize = function()) in, and I don't understand why I want to call the function centreMe() from within the onResize function.
Code:

I'm using FLex Builder and in my Main class I load an external swf. In the external swf there is a movieclip on the stage called house. In the library I have that movieclips Class name set to a class I defined called com.buildings.House
When I load the swf from the main class I'm trying to access a function called setup in the class called House. I have tried a bunch of different ways but I get errors for them all.
Code:
private function onLoadSwf( url : String) : void
{
var loader : Loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onImageLoadComplete);
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.INIT, onLoadInit);
[Code]....
I'm at a loss right now and its driving me mad. In flash I used to use the var externalSwf : MovieClip = evt.target.content; example and it worked but with Flex Builder its throwing error saying setup is not a function.
With the Imap interface its saying externalSwf is null.

I have a program that is displaying a number of images from an XML file. The images are being resized and displayed through a loop function. I'm creating a new Loader each time through the loop and adding it to the stage. The problem is, I then want to create an event listener that will call a function for a mouse event for each image. The first issue I'm running into: how do I determine which image is which after loading them to the stage (say I want to display a large version of the image when the small image is clicked)? Secondly, since I'm creating the Loader within the first function, how do I pass the Loader to another function, say the one called by the mouse event listener? I'm sure I'm going about the fundamentals the wrong way.

this is actions layer:
new to actionScript and trying to finish my final project, and i'm banging my head on a brick wall now, my question may be easy for some pros, basically i've loaded an external swf from a button at main.swf
[Code]...
this works fine. then i'm trying to disable the button function while the swf is loaded. I add another eventListener to the same button. function disableMenu( e:MouseEvent ):void { button1.mouseEnabled = false;}
that works too. ok now comes the problem. I have a close button on my child swf("content1.swf) to close itself and returen to main swf. but I want the button on main.swf to work again. so at the close button I add another eventListener hope to enable the menu. (note this is on the child swf!)
