ActionScript 2.0 :: Global Variable - Load An Image In Another Movie Clip?
Jun 26, 2008
I have an array holding 'image' and 'name' name loops fine and populates a load of movie clips underneath each other... i need for when this name is clicked to load an image in another movie clip (image name comes from the array).. the code i have works but it only pulls throught the last item of the array which points to a problem with 'i' not being carried across the functions..? that is the result of my investigation *smokes pipe*

I am creating an ad for my website that pulls 3 random images from a database and displays them in a flash file. I already have the .php file (see code below) and I am successfully able to load the variables into the actionscript, but I cant get the images to show up. I have three symbols (img0, img1 & img2) and I cant seem to load the image onto the symbols using loadMovie. [code]...

I am trying to load an external image into a movie clip that is already on the Stage and size it to the movie clips size. The movie clip name is member_gallery with the width of 360 and the height of 251. One of the images i am trying to load into it is 1024 * 768. I would also like to load other images of different sizes into the same movie clip and they all change to 360 * 251 when loaded.
PHP Code:
onClipEvent(load){var container2:MovieClip = createEmptyMovieClip("container2", getNextHighestDepth());var mcLoader2:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();mcLoader2.addListener(this);mcLoader2.loadClip("http://www.gothics-r-us.com/chat/images/gru.jpg", container2);trace(this._width);trace(container2._xscale); container2._xscale = this._width / 10; container2._yscale = this._height / 10; //container2._height = 251;}

Background; I want to load a global variable from a button action, and use this global variable to point to a frame named with what I'm gonna set the variable to, for instance a global variable of 1 will trigger a movie clip with a to play to a frame named 1.
I've set _global.x = 1 from a button instance withing an on(rollOver) block, and it shows up fine through trace(_global.x) from within a separate movie clip instance (within the same scene/timeline), but when I tried to use it in gotoAndPlay using the syntax gotoAndPlay(_global.x) it doesn't work. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong but I just don't know what.

Im using loadMovie in a parent movie to load my content movies. I need the content movies to be able to access a variable set in the content movie. I've tried using global variables and can't seem to get anything going.
I've got two layers. The top layer has the header and footer graphic alongs with the scripting for the menu. The bottom layer is where the content movie is loaded into.I'm declaring the _global variable in the top layer, outside of any functions, and trying to access it from the loaded swf in the content (bottom) layer.

I'm working with three files. Main.swf which contains navigation.swf in a blankmc, empty mc called mcContent where navigation sleclected materials are loaded.
In the navigation.fla here is the code
[AS]trace("now defining global");
_global.loadFile_str = strPicName;
trace("global defined as");
[Code] .....
When I do a trace of loadFile_str in the first frame of monthlyreports I get a undefined. I have tried trace(loadFile_str) and trace(_global.loadFile_str). I also noticed that if I define the global on the main movie (it maintains the global variable, the navigation fla will not overwrite it).

Does anyone know the code for finding the global positioning of X & Y co-ordinates of a click of a button which is constantly rotating, and then secondly the code for when you click on the button it displays a movie clip on top of it -(position of x & y when clicked) at the angle that you clicked it,so underneath the buttons are still rotating so other people can click them where they are?
to explain the context, I'm trying to design a mock up of a circular interactive table Dynamically placing movie clip at the angle and global position of a mouse click (button) which is constantly rotating.when someone comes up to it and clicks on one of the buttons that are moving, it reads where the person clicked it and opens up a new box (movie clip) where they clicked it (at the angle) so its not upside down if you are at the top.
I've included my .fla file which shows the four buttons moving and a little diagram explaining what I'm trying to do.

im going through colin moock's book, "the definitive guide", and im learning about global variables. so in his lesson he says to do this:
1. create a movieclip called square, with a square inside of it.
2. in the square mc's timeline, on frame 1, place this code :
_global.day = "tuesday";
3. go back to the main timeline and on frame one put this code:
trace(day);
no according to moock, when i run the movie, it should output "tuesday", but all i keep getting is "undefined"

In my project are pages of text with each word having a button that when pressed will display a movieclip presentation about that word (its pronounciation and spelling etc..). In the project I am working on now I have over 450 unique presentations of words to deal with. I don't want to have all of these hundreds of movie clips on the stage and tell them one at a time to stop and rewind and then have one play each time a word button is pressed. That seems to be very inefficient to me.
add movieclips to the stage using addChild(movieclipname) and remove them using removeChild(movieclipname) but there is a problem. I have hundreds of unique movieclips and I don't want to have to manage hundreds of variables containing the indivudual movieclip instancess. It is a real pain having to figure out what instance is still on the stage before i delete it.In Adobe Director all I have to do is this:

I have 2 movie clips, one being loaded into a container MC via "loadMovie();"In the main movie there is a variable with no value, in the external movie there are 5 frames, each with a value to update the variable in the main movie.
IE: if on frame 1, global value = 1 / if on frame 2, global value = 2 / etc etc I'm familiar with passing variables INTO an external swf, but am stumped on how to do it the reverse way.

I'm trying to get a movie clip to automatically load up another external clip, after playing an embedded flv.
This is what I've tried so far:
var holdFrame = setInterval( holdFrame, 5000);
gotoAndPlay(
_root.mc_holder.loadMovie("swf/library.swf"));
clearInterval (holdFrame);
Although it throws no errors, the setInterval is ignored and it just loads direct into the next mc clip.

I have a page with 8 photos that are movie clips. I'm attempting code that allows the user to click on each photo/movie clip and this loads a movie clip inside which is a larger version of the photo.
how to do this and then allow the user to click the photo to close?
I realize this is a strange way to organize photos but they laid out over a detailed photo album background.

What I'd like to do is have a checkbox, that when it is checked it loads a movie into an empty movie clip, and when it is unchecked, it loads a different movie into the empty movie clip.Also if possible I'd like to find a way to output to a variable whether the same checkbox is checked or not. And send the info from the variable in an email.

I have FlashVar sending variables from php to Flash, and that part works fine, flash gets the variable.BUT I have a gallery, that should load an image, and the image path is in the variable. So basically, the part of the URL field in loadMovie should be the variable's value.. That just doesn't work I'm kinda stressed out because I have a really short deadline and I was stupid enough to assume this will be doable.url..Is there any way to achieve getting the image to load into the swf using the variable?

On frame 1 of the main timeline I have a movieclip. The 1st frame of the movieclip stops, and requests a password. When the password is correct, the movie clip plays and stops again on frame 2 - where the user enters their name. I've named this variable 'name_txt', and the submit button will only continue if the variable is defined.
The problem comes when I try to get a dynamic text box in the main timeline to show the user's name - it just stays blank even through i've experimented setting the var / instance names to 'name_txt'. I think I have to set the variable to global or something, but cant seem to get it to work.

I am trying to duplicate a move clip and then set some of it's properties with actionscript. What's the notation to do this?
Here is my guess:
Code:
duplicateMovieClip(_root.event, ("event"+i), i);
[event+i]._y = ([event-i]._y)+([event+i].height);
[_root.event+i].eDate = ("4/2"+i);
