why this will not allow button to be seen, on MouseOver it simply ignores the Actionscript.
Code:
loadThumbnails = function() {
/* Select project nodes from each section in main [i] loop */
//trace("------------------");
allProjectData = myXML.childNodes[i].childNodes;

I have a movieClip, which in turn has a nested movieClip. I need each of these to have thier own onRollOver events, the parent movieClip is OK, but the event never fires for the nested movieClip. My code goes something like this:

is output when mcOne is rolled over, as it should, but nothing is output when mcTwo is moused over.
I have two class files that extend to movieclips......one targets _root.scrolling_mc, the other _root.messages_mc. I have multiple movieclips throughout the presentation with instance names scrolling_mc and messages_mc. This is where it gets interesting. After navigating from a scene with scrolling_mc to a scene with messages_mc, some of the behaviour of the scrolling_mc is still triggering. Its almost as if both class files are working side by side.
View 3 RepliesI am adding flash galleries toon the Facilities and Gallery pages. On my mac I've tested the galleries using Firefox, Safari, and Opera and they are working perfectly as expected.However, there is no gallery, or error message on PC machines. I do not have a PC so I can't test it, but I've had a Vista and XP user both test the site and the galleries do not display at all.

Is it possible to call a function defined in a movie clip from a class?Here's a sample project setup I'm trying to achieve this simple feat:

- The "foo" library item has one script on it's first frame:

I use an event listener to detect keyboard activity and it is working fine, but when I add a MovieClip to the stage, the event is no more triggered, I need to click on the stage to get it active.The MovieClip fills all the stage, and I tried to add the same event listener to it, but still I need to click on it to get the event listener active.

I have a movieclip and i put an onRollOver call on it. The problem is the onrollover fires only once when the ouse is on top of the movieclip. In flash, how can i do something equivalent to the onmousemove in javascript?
View 8 RepliesSo far I have created/hacked about some code for an infinite scrolling menu bar, and am trying to create the rollover and release actions for each menu title. After researching it seemed best that the buttons were made from movies clips as apposed to the 'button' type, but I am not sure if this is the case. The problem I am having is that I am unable to get the Contact movie clip to recognise the onPress or an onRollOver and I am not sure why. The .fla file is available here and this is the code I tried to get it to work.
Code:
_root.scrolling_mc._root.menu_mc._root.contact_mc.onPress = function () {
if(contact_mc.hitTest(_xmouse, _ymouse, true) ) {
trace("Does this button work?!");
}
I also tried:
Code:
_root.scrolling_mc._root.menu_mc._root.contact_mc.onRollOver = function () {
trace("Does this button work?!");
}
I understand I am probably on the wrong tracks with the use of _root. but I need to somehow trigger the nested movieclips.
I want a transparent movie clip that displays a tool tip when you roll over it. Beneath that movie clip I have other movie clips that I want to be clickable. Unfortunately having the "onRollOver" event on the top layer movie clip blocks the "onRelease" events of the lower movie clips. If I move the smaller movie clips on top it will work but I have to setup a tool tip for each of them (and it disappears and reappears when I move from one MC to another). I also thought about using the "onMouseMove" event and doing a hit test, but that seems less efficient.
View 4 RepliesI have a movieclip that has selectable text / scroll bar / other buttons etc - What I would like is to have an onRollOver / RollOut event to call a function on the entire movieclip, however when I do this - The entire movieclip is treated as a button and I cannot select the text nor click the scroll bar / other movieclip buttons within this movieclip. Is there a way to set the onrollover / rollout to execute a function without having the movieclip itself turn into a button / stop functioning?

I have a loop that goes through an array and duplicates (and positions) movieclips on the scene and loads JPGs into them with "loadMovie". I then try to attach an "onRollOver"-handler to the movieclip but it doesn't respond. Here's the thing: It works fine when I don't load the images into the MC instances... but as soon as I do, the onRollOver is not responsive anymore.
I read the telltale line "loading a JPG or SWF into a movieclip replaces it"... is that the cause of the problem? I mean- can I not refer to the duplicated MCs anymore as soon as I load something into them? How could I work around it?

i've not tried to do anything odd with eventListeners up until now. i have a movieclip with multiple frames that i use AS to attach a textfield to it. problem is i have a eventlistener for when the mouse rollsover the movieclip to go to frame 3 of the movieclip.

what's causing the textfield to suddenly take precedence and how do i stop it. when i trace the evt.target - it is my movieclip.
I have a movieClip button in my library that I dynamically add multiple instances of to the stage using code (so each instance has a unique name). The button has two frames, so it has a basic rollover effect (just changes color. To make the rollover work, I've had to dynamically add an event listener to each new instance of the movieclip, which triggers the rollover function.
I was wondering, instead of adding an event listener each time, can I somehow have an event listener within the movieclip to take care of the rollover? Or will it not make any difference to the number of event listeners, as it will still add a listener with each new instance of the clip?
i'm calling a php file, which is supposed to make an xml file. whenever i call the php file using this syntax, most of the time i get "cannot load file" in the xml loading section, but this updates the xml file.
[code] loadVariables("http://localhost/file.php",this,"POST");[/AS]
but when i do it this way. [code] loadVariables("http://localhost/file.php",NONE,"POST");[/AS]
the "cannot load file" messge doesn't get displayed, and the file loads perfectly, but this doesn't update the xml file.
so everytime i have to first use "this" and then "none".
what can i do so that whenever php is called, it'll update the xml file, and still load in the swf.
