ActionScript 2.0 :: [F8] Loop - First Value Is Undefined
Dec 15, 2005This one works really fine, but... the first value is undefined...
var thumb_spacing = 80;
circlecenterX = Stage.width/2;
circlecenterY = Stage.height/2;[code]......

I'm an AS2 convert and struggling. I can't figure out how to get my function to see my array. I keep getting an error that "i" is an undefined property.
var thingsToShrink:Array = new Array(
b1,
b2,
b3,
b4,
b5
);
function shrinkBars(myArray:Array){
for (i=0; i < (myArray.length); i++){
myArray[i]._yscale = 0;
}};
shrinkBars(thingsToShrink);
Basically when I put the asteroidXlocation in a for loop it becomes undefined outside it. If I just do the line by itself it works.[code]...
View 1 RepliesSo i have my items that I bring onto stage with my loop function with dynamic text fields within the loop. If I want to clear these items using a reset button on the stage how can I do this. From my code below when I press the reset button I receive: TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.So a little snippet of my code just to give an idea what I use to bring items to stage and what Im trying to use to reset[code]....

I'm trying to loop a f4v but I keep getting an error. I have imported a f4v into my library and I now have a FLVPlayback in my library. I have added this to the stage and named it "video_test". I have added the below actionscript to my timeline:

i am using flash, .Net, and MySQL and have elements (text fields) posting in flash.Question is, if the table in the data base is not holding the var char how can I set the text field in flash to not show undefined and just be blank?
View 6 RepliesI would like to create a loop so the icons in the menu continually loop indefinitly.[code]
View 2 RepliesI am attempting to use a loop to create text field with the loop's current value. The code looks like this:
ActionScript Code:
for (var i = 1; i<=10; i++) {
var 'nameHolder'+[i]+'_txt':TLFTextField = new TLFTextField();
'nameHolder'+[i]+'_txt'.x = 40
'nameHolder'+[i]+'_txt'.y = 40
'nameHolder'+[i]+'_txt'.text = "Hello World"
}
So essentially what it should do is create 10 text fields at 40, 40 with the text: "Hello World".

I have need of loops / nested loops that pick different figures depending on where you are in the loop. The whole function needs to run through 'ml' times. 'ml' is a dynamic figure. Loop 1 = While the loop is within the first 12 iterations, 'exconemp' must equal 100. For iterations 13 - 24, 'exconemp' must equal 102.5, for 25 - 36 it will be 105.06, for 37 - 48 it will be 107.69. This needs to change every 12th iteration until it has reached 'ml'. The calculation takes the value of the previous 'exconemp' and then multiplies that by 0.025.
Loop 2 = While the loop is within the first 120 iterations, 'abc' must equal 0.015 and any further iterations must use 0.01. This must also work in a way to figure out whether 'ml' is higher or lower than 120 and work accordingly. My main issue is this - how do I get the loops to run through as this: While the iteration is < 12, do this, THEN take the final figure (12th iteration) and start on 13 - 24, do this THEN etc etc. How do I produce a THEN statement? I can get the code to pick up the final values, but not change along the way.

So basically within this code check_win is a button. Once the button is clicked it runs the loop. It is meant to take an instance of matches which contains 6 properties and loop until index is greater than matches. According to my output this is happening but the second loop doesn't appear to do anything.
How do i word a for loop to make it loop through multiple arrays?I want 1 for loop to loop through multiple arrays in order to move/alter objects.I want to keep the arrays separate.

I'm trying to make a matching pairs game. First of all I'm making all the tiles, using a loop inside a loop. How do I get the ID of an item inside that loop? My code looks like follow:

makeTiles();
function makeTiles() {

dayVal = day.value;
for(dayVal = 1; dayVal/7 != 1; dayVal++)
{trace (dayVal);
}
the loop starts at 0 and not 1 so the loop ends at 6 does any one know how to resolve this issue?? its so that what ever number dayVal is it will be rounded up to a number that is Divisble by 7 .
Basically, I have data organized by date in an XML file. I'm trying to make a website application that will allow the user to click on a date (in a text field) to see another textfield populate with all the data under that particular date. So far, all the information loads into the textboxes at the same time. How can I get it to only load information under a particular date when somebody clicks on that date?
Before I started this project, I was convinced I could do this by manipulating the [j] (see code below) in the myFunc2 function. Currently, it's set up to increment blank_mc._y by whatever value is returned by [j]. But for some reason this doesn't work. I feel that if I could atleas get this part to work - I could probably do the rest.

wondering if anyone knows if its possible to have a pause within a 'for loop' before it runs through the next loop? heres the script i've built up so far, i'm running off other variables and arrays to pull in the logos and the animating in is working fine except that they all run in at the same time, basically what i want is that they would run one after the other with a 5 second gap between them..[code]so i did that and put wait(delay); after the var boxcounter=2; in each of the If statements.. but no luck... can anyone shed any light? or suggest a way it get it to hold for a few seconds before running though the loop again? or am i going about this in completely the wrong way??!

I'm trying to synchronize external subtitles with my custom video player - Not FLVPlayback.Subtitles are in XML object from 0 - 12.I created a Timer that is checking when the subtitle 0 should be displayed according to playback time.I want to reach that after subtitle 0 disappear the next subtitle 1 will be checked when should be displayed.So all I want is 0 + 1But it is Timer and the result after Subtitle 0 disappear is 0+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1 ad infinity And thats too many as I only want once add 1.

i can fully see how things work up until i hit the FOR LOOP EVALUATION: child !=null at that point the loop is broken and the trace statements with xxxxx and yyyy come into play but why is there 4 lots of x and y traces? if the loop is broken and child = null which it does why does the statement carry on 4 more times - should it not just return? i understand that the update part of the for loop will execute only at the end of the loop but this still does not show why it should carry on like this?
