Basically I'm using the code below to change the colour of the text in a movie clip that I'm using as a button. This works fine, but I have 8 buttons in my navigation and at the moment have to duplicate this code for each one. How to turn the colour change code into a function that I can reuse?

I have a button with the following code attached to it:

I want to use this code on a frame. Is it onLoad I need to use??
I am new to flex framework.I have created an application using flex framework 4.1 which is having various components that are shown to the end user in the form of a popup window using <mx:TitleWindow>.This titlewindow is closed either on the click of the close button (displayed in it's titlebar) or by pressing the "escape key" on the keyboard.I coded a functionality wherein I close the current TitleWindow whenever an 'escape' button is pressed.Here is what I did.On the keydown event of TitleWindow I called this function.[code]I had to repeat this code for every TitleWindow that I have used in the project.How can I write the above functionality only once and reuse it amongst various TitleWindow and other components so that the code for the same is not repeated across various components? Every TitleWindow that I am using has different code, scripts and layout in it.
View 1 RepliesI want to write a function for loading html text from a file, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to use LoadVars correctly in that manner. I'm not loading speific variables, but a chunk of html.'d like to be able to do something like this:
myText = loadHtml("blah.html");
myTextField.htmltext = myText;
This is my current code, but I don't know how to pass the data back out of the function.
loadHtml = new LoadVars();
loadHtml.onLoad = function() {
trace(this) // traces the text file.

what happened in my flash document was, I created a button, "next_btn" with the following commands:
on(release){
//to remove all the splats
for (score=0;score<100;score++){[code]...
At this point, almost everything worked perfectly. Everything, but one thing. Apparently, the swapDepths command wasn't working. It was then that I thought maybe swapDepths only works on movie clips.And so I converted the button into a movie clip. I modified the instance names, etc, and almost everything worked. Everything, including swapDepths, but one thing: the gotoAndStop command.For some reason, when I tested the movie clip (containing a button) out, it removed the splat+score and finger_mc movie clips, as well as stoped the background music from playing. However, it did not go to the next scene and frame as specified by the gotoAndStop command. "s1a2" is the next scene, and "gameplays1a2" is its frame.
First of all, I would like to apologise for not knowing whether this code belongs to F5 or FMX Action Script. I'm that noobish, yup. Anyway, what happened in my flash document was, I created a button, "next_btn" with the following commands:

I'm trying to create a reusable button like it was possible in ActionScript 2 using the Var of a dynamic text box, hence allowing me to chose the name of the button and its link inside the HTML and pass these variables on to the swf file. This therefore means less traffic, and faster load times.
the html code would look like this:
PHP Code:
<param name="FlashVars" value="myText=HOME&myLink=http:\www.MyWebsiteHome.com"/>
How would i go about doing this with CS3?
I'm trying to make the code below reusable. I need multiple toggle buttons in my flash project. Right now the code below works on one button. If I continue and create more buttons, and follow the format below, I would need to create separate functions for each button.
I would like to put the reusable code in a separate ActionScript file and not in the FLA file. I am trying to put the rolloverToggle, rolloverToggle, and toggleClick in a class that I'm making.[code]...
I'm trying to create reusable rollover button states with dynamic/changing text - any cleaver workaround for that?
View 1 RepliesI am using CS4 AS3. I have a button that starts a function that creates dynamic buttons on the stage. I have another button that when pressed is to stop the previous function. I am relatively new at this and don't know how to code the STOP button so that it will stop the actions started by the first button.

View 0 RepliesI want to take a static text field, convert it into a button, and use it as a button. I need it static, because I changed orientation, and I do not know how to do that otherwise. The problem is, even though I converted it to a Button symbol, it does not work when I test the movie. It works fine with "Enable simple buttons", but when I test it, the button is not there, no change in mouse cursor, no reaction at all.So this is what I did:
Made text. // static, not selectable, Orientation: vertical left to right, / //rotated; Two filters: Drop Shadow and Glow;
Converted text field to Button - Symbol (scrollBT)
Editing the Button,I put the same content (the static text field) in all four frames: No luck, not working. without the Hit frame filled (which I think doesn't really make a difference): No luck, not working.Tried again, converting the static text field in the button into a Graphic Symbol: No luck, not working.Tried again, and put some differences in the frames for "ON" and "OVER" etc.: No luck, not working.Tried again, duplicating a similar, working button, edited it, and: No luck, not working.
To the button itself and the AS: The button will be a scroll-button for a text field, with different scroll speeds on rollover and press, but nothing else. The code for that I have (I think). It's something like (and please excuse my incorrect syntax here, but I'm typing from memory; still, I use the Script-Assistant and my syntax is apparently correct; it's also working with other buttons):
on {rollOver} {
function (scroll) {
textfieldtxt.scroll - = 1;}[code]....
I'm at the end of my wits. The only difference I can tell from other (working) buttons I did the same way, is that the scrollBt does not do anything except scrolling, while all of the others have frame actions (gotoAndplay etc.) associated with them.
I have serveral draggable MC's on the stage. When a button is ckicked, I want the MC's to tween to a specific target area on the stage. I can do this in MX, but can't do this in FLash 5..... can anyone convert the code below to work on Flash 5? Or just come up with a differnet way.

I'm trying to update an old flash 5 site I made years ago so that I can put video clips in it. I opened the file is flash cs3 and compiled just to see if it would work as is before modifying. It's hanging on a bunch of code, all which have eval() in them. It's been a loooong time since I coded actionscript so while I know that the bracket syntax is what I should be using, after trying various ways of writing it I just can't figure it out. Can someone tell me how the following should be written in Actionscript 2.0 and I can extrapolate from there?[code]...
View 1 RepliesI've got a project that I've been avoiding because it's something I've never done before. I have a concept game that I put together with internal AS3. I wasn't given much time make it work, otherwise I would have done the code externally to start.
The project is now 'go', but I want to convert the crappy internal code to external. I don't have any of those fancy IDE's. I could get one, if it would help.Does anyone know of any tutorials covering internal to external conversion? Has anyone else done this? Is there a simple list of things to convert to make the code work externally?

Is there a clean and efficient way to import documents in a flash presentation?I have a big number of doc documents to import in a flash presentation and i'm wondering what's the best way to attach them. I've worked passing them to HTML before, but the doc to HTML conversion is messy, ugly and doesn't output valid HTML code, besides, it's a chore to clean the embed CSS style the conversion leaves inside the code. is there a library that allow to use a more portable format? if not, is there a clean way to convert a doc file to valid html code?
