ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash8 Previous Working Fla's Return Multiple Errors?
Dec 7, 2005
I've found out that when publishing with Flash 8 my previous MX's working fla files, I get multiple errors.I've had a look at the Export publishing settings and I think they're all correct: - Exporting version: 8- AS Version: 1.0So, I guess it must be a silly thing I'm doing wrong but after a long while I haven't been able to know what's wrong. Perhaps AS compatibility is not that accurate?The most common error I get is:"A ')' or ',' was expected" or"An unexpected '}' was found"(I'm using Spanish Flash 8, so I don't know if this is the exact message you're given in English Flash 8) The 'supposed to be wrong' code seems to be in lines like[AS].posicion = posicion+eval("abc" add i)+gap;abc=eval("_parent._parent.abc" add _parent.n)[/AS]and I even get a "Declaration must be inside a on/onClipEvent controller" here:[AS]._xscale=abc*1.4;[/AS] ...while ALL of this code worked perfectly in Flash MX, I get up to 104 errors in Flash 8

Has anyone found a solution to having multiple scrollers work on the same page? I tried applying different instance names on all components but that didn't work either. The AS below only allows for one scroller to work.

the general goal I'm going for is this: user enters a bunch of text into a textarea. It's parsed word by word into an array, and then the array is gone through. If a certain word (from a list provided by me) is found in the array, then an event will happen later..

Is there a way to recall a variable from a previous frame? I have a variable that was mathematically calculated in frame 3, that variable was then used in a dynamic text field. The problem I am facing is that the text field then disappears in frame 4. The only solution I can think of is reposting the text field in frame 4 but I am having trouble recalling the variable from the previous frame.

Basically, I have a flash app with various frames, each frame contains a "help" button, which when clicked takes the user to one seperate frame with various informative instructions on it. The help button is like a universal tool incase the users need help.
Now, no matter what frame the user is on, if they click the help button, sure enough, it takes them to the "help" frame. The big problem I have, is that I cannot fathom a way to make the users RETURN to the exact frame they came from.
For instance, the user is viewing a frame in the app called "Question 2", they get stuck, they click on the "help" button, it takes them to the "help" page. After veiwing the instructions, they need to return to the question 2 frame, possibly by clicking a "back" button of some description. Likewise if they were on a frame called "Question 3" - they need to return to this frame if they click the help button.
In a nutshell, I need to create a button that takes the user back to the previous frame from the "help" frame, like a dynamic link back or something.

Is it possible to return the index of the first instance of a specified value within an array? Similar to:
Code:
var my_string = "string";
var index = my_string.indexOf("g");
/*Outputs:
1
*/
Basically, I have two arrays, each with 10 values (in slots 0-9 of the arrays). So I need to see if an array has a specified value in it, but then I have to see if the other array has a certain value in it, in the same spot as the first instance of what I search for in the first array.

One layer with a movieclip "man" with a script that makes it move around. One layer with two frames (different rooms)
Also at the door of each rooms a script that when the man walks into the door makes it jump to the second room.
The problem is that the character stays in the same place (since he is a different layer with one keyframe and then just ordinary frames. This works as it should.
Now one way to solve it is in the next room just create another movieclip identical to the man with the same scripts and place him by the door. However this makes it complicated when there are several directions and so on (basicly having to make one frame for every possible entry point in the room)
So im looking for a system so that when this script triggers
Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if ((this.hitTest(_root.man))) {
_root.gotoAndPlay("secondroom");

I know my way around basic Flash, I can work with script as long as I have script assist for basic things like getting URLs and linking buttons etc. I'm trying to create a "don't show this page again" on the opening page of a mini-site using a checkbox component and so far, I've dragged a checkbox onto the stage from the components window and only been able to change its label to "don't show again" from "checkbox" in the parameters window. I've given it the instance name of 'showAgainCheckBox' and I have this code on the component layer first frame looking like this.
Code:
Select allshowAgainCheckBox.addEventListener( Mouse.Click, onshowAgainClick );
function onShowAgainClick( e:MouseEvent ):void {
// do something about the click here
}
Of course the code is filled with errors from what I get of the compiler message. I've been trying to get the logic. So I might need like a 'checkbox component for dummies' kinda explanation.

This seems pretty basic but for some reason I absolutely can't get it to work. I have a set of buttons which I want to be able to send their parent movie to the next or previous frame. I want to use a NEXT and PREVIOUS button, both combined within a single movieclip, to tell a parent file to go to next and previous frame.
This doesn't work:
previous_btn.onRelease = function(){
this._parent.prevFrame;
} next_btn.onRelease = function(){
this._parent.nextFrame;

I have a function with some if and else...if statements in a particular frame. In this assessment program, the user goes to other frames, then evaluates several variables at the end. If the user gets more than 3 wrong, the user goes back to the scenarios that were missed (i.e., a particular frame label). When I have tested this program, I can get back to the right frame/scenario, but a particular button's function won't work. Is there something where I need to "reset" this function the second time the user goes through it because it remembers what was done the first time?

I am using flex to generate a lexical analyser for a custom language. The problem I am having is that as soon as I find a misformed token... I have no way to tell what other tokens follow this one. e.g.[code]Here, the stream of tokens will be id,<,>,id,<;>...... the language specifies that each token be seperated by a whitespace. So seeing a v after 1 should produce an error and the scanner has to print that error. After that, there are more legal tokens and another illegal token (~return). How do I process the rest of the legal tokens and print the second error.I am using flex as the scanner generator. When I find that none of the regular expressions for the lexeme matches, I call an error routine that prints the appropriate message.How do I resume processing after calling this routine?

I have this streaming video player with an asyncErrorHandler function which isn't working correctly.In Flash player 10 I get no errors, but in Flash player 9 I'll get a popup window with the error message that shows up in my output window when I test on my local machine.
Error #2044: Unhandled AsyncErrorEvent:. text=Error #2095: flash.net.NetConnection was unable to invoke callback onBWDone. error=ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property onBWDone not found on src.display.VideoClass and there is no default value.
I feel that I have my AsyncErrorEvent setup correctly however, but am unsure as to why I still get a massive error in my output window, here is the popup window and code below:My statusEventHandler function
// ☼ --- Handle Status and Errors
function statusEventHandler(event:NetStatusEvent):void {
trace("connected is: "+ncConnection.connected);
trace("event.info.level: "+event.info.level);

I'm making an game which i want to intergrate acheivements, I've got everything working to an extent but I've isolated code and put it in a test to show my problem. I have a MC called "ach" (without ") and inside that i have another MC called a1 , a2 , a3. They are animated to disappear after say 45 frames. I've put my acheivements on buttons just to test them, but in my game you get them for say playing for 1 hour or collecting all items and some for clicking hidden buttons etc. but when I click the buttons again the acheive MC keeps appearing. I only want it to appear once.This is the code I have got that doesnt work.
Button Code :
Code:
on (release) {
_root.ach.gotoAndStop(3)
}

my preloader isn't actually working,trying to load the page on a PC with quite slow internet... The story is following - my preloader animation plays, but only after the whole movie is loaded, cuz I noticed a huge delay before the preloader was actually played... And then I used that flash speed testing thing (sorry, but I don't know how it's called) and it proved my theory... That's the code on 1-st frame, where preloader is:
Actionscript Code:
stop();var loaded:Number = getBytesLoaded();var total:Number = getBytesTotal();var percent:Number = Math.floor((loaded*100)/total);if (loaded == total){gotoAndPlay (2);}else{ _preloader.gotoAndPlay(percent); //loadBar.percentage.text = percent;}[code].....

This is driving me nuts folks. I've imported a video clip to my stage, added a skin for stop, play, pause etc. I test the Flash file using Control --> Test Movie and everything appears exactly as I want it to.
The problem is that when I upload the files to my server the embedded video clip does not appear, nor does the skin. Just a blank space

I have a photo gallery I developed using AS2 in Flash 8 Pro. You can find it at [URL] I used a loadMovie to import different swf files into the main swf file when a button is clicked. It works great in Firefox and Safari but suddenly stopped working yesterday in IE. It worked in IE (6, 7 and 8) since last Friday when I uploaded it but stopped yesterday. I am using IE on Windows XP. I did try IE on Vista yesterday when I started having trouble with my XP IE and it seemed to work...however, this morning I can't even get my IE Vista to come up so am not sure it is still working on that version.I removed the preloaders that are in the imported swf files but it didn't help so I put them back in. I am using the following code in my html to embed the flash:
Code:
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,24"
width="815" height="570">
[code]....
I thought maybe there was a change in the way my server was serving the flash so I uploaded onto another server...still not working in IE. I also checked to see that the server did not store my swf files in all lowercase names.

I'm having an issue with my dropdown menu, and I know how It's not working, but not why. See, I have an mc in my menu that I have a rollOver and rollOut function on. This makes it swap between frame 1 and 2 (2 beeing the frame with dropdown). Here's the issue: When I have the rollOver/Out function on the main item, the submenu items don't do anything when clicked. But when I remove the rollOver/Out function and just go directly to frame to from start, they work.
