View 1 RepliesI have a project with an XML Connector that goes out and gets data from an xml file and displays it in a label in my flash. It does this when the swf file loads using ActionScript in frame 1. The ActionScript is simply: this.labels_xc.trigger(); It loads the data from the XML file no problem. But the data in the XML file changes every so often. How do I get the swf file to go out and get the new data on a regular interval (say every 2 minutes or so)? I've looked at scripts with timers and I can't figure it out. Here is the url to the page I'm testing it on:[URL]

View 1 RepliesI am trying out the following code, so that whenever I make a movieclip null, the array containing it's reference too becomes null. I understand the following code cannot do this, but I want somehow, the array can provide information, if the movieclip has got null.
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
var a_arr:Array = new Array(a_Mc,b_Mc);
trace(a_arr);
a_Mc= null ;
trace(a_arr);
Output is:
[object MovieClip],[object MovieClip]
But I want something like null, [object MovieClip ]

View 0 RepliesIm working with a flex application that pulls data from a java class file using message handler event. The received message string is added to ArrayCollection. The string consists of codeID and other values related to codeID. Had displayed the detail in a datagrid. The codeID is randomly generated and is pushed to flex for every second. Now, the problem is, I needa update the datagrid cell values, for instance, if i have pushed codeID's of (0001,0007,0005,0003) to the front end, that displays the corresponding values of each codeID in the datagrid, second instance of (0001) should update records in the existing row of (0001). I tried to check the existence of codeID in ArrayCollection using search algorithm, but dont know how to proceed further.

View 5 RepliesI have an on(press) command that refreshes advertisements on an HTML page that my .swf is embedded in. When a user clicks on buttons that have the script, the advertisements refresh. I have a page that features a Slideshow Pro slideshow. Because this is a component, I am unable to put this script on the buttons in the slideshow. I am hoping instead, to have the script automatically run every 10-20 seconds. I am using actionscript 2.0 in a Flash CS3 file. Here is the code on the button:

I am deploying Updates via SCUP and SCCM to hundreds of Computers. Fortunately Adobe provides an SCCM Update Catalog for both Adobe Flash ActiveX and Adobe Flash Plugin. But now my Problem: After publishing the Update via SCCM, the client is not supposed to be interfered with the Update Progress (which is working) I figured the Updater works like this: First SCCM checks if a Update needs to be deployed, if this is the case, The Flash Updater begins. First the old Flash Version is beeing uninstalled. But now: if the Client has a Browser Window (IE, or Firefox) open, the Updater is not able to install the new Flash Version and quits with an Error. This leaves the Client PC without any Flash (because its being uninstalled before) How can I prevent Flash being uninstalled due to the Update progress not working while a Browser window is open?

This is basically my second 100% flash website where the client wants to be able to update the schedule section, for the first one I basically created an HTML document for each event and then loaded all documents to my .fla file using Actionscritp 3.0, then to update them my client goes directly to the cpanel and edit the HTML files there, but I was wondering if any of you have been this situation before where the client wants to do the updates (text only).This is not a problem when the page is 50/50 HTML and Flash since I can use a Content Management System such as Cushy CMS this way the updates are easy.

I`m currently working on a website in flash which is going to be kinda like a blog. The swf loads in in two files for each "post", one image and one text file. I already know how to do that. But the website has to be update able without using flash. How would you do this? I thought i maybe could have one folder named "posts" and in that folder i could have folders named something like "post1", "post2" etc. And the post with the highest number would be the newest one. Something like this:
Can flash read directories on the server? (but i cant get the search to work. Neither in Chrome nor IE. I just get HTTP error 500)
