I have a script that loads a movie clip at a different location every time on the stage:
photo1._x = Math.random() * 600;
photo1._y = Math.random() * 600;
This works fine. All I would like to do now is add a minimum and maximum of some kind so that my clip never load hanging half off of the stage. I tried this among other things:
photo1 = Math.min(stage.width - 100, stage.width - 100);
photo1 = Math.max(stage.width - 100, stage.width - 100);
I tried a number of other ways to add x and y parameters but never got the result I wanted.

Actionscript Code:
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,mousePressed);stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE,mouseMoved);function mousePressed(e:MouseEvent) { if(editMode != null){

want to make a sfw that receives parameters from the html tag. for example, when you embed youtube videos, in the <object> thingy you set the video you want to show. i want to do exactly the same, have a 'projector' (though not exactly videos), the swf knows what to do from the html tag params, and displays the right content. how do i red html params from the sfw (and how do i test it?).
also, is there any doumentation/examples on how to connect php/mysql to a flash movie?

I need to dynamically pass 2 parameter to an swf movie to make it work properly, they are a number and a boolean. To do this I've changed the html page which contains the movie to php, I pass to the page the parameters' values through GET. The values are correctly passed to the page, I've tried to print them.
I build the call to the swf in this way collpreloader.swf?connid=<?php echo $_GET['connid'] ?>&animazione=<?php echo $_GET['animazione'] ?>
collpreloader.swf correctly reads the connid parameter, but animazione results always true.

There seem to be many of these players free and otherwise, but they seem to all publish for HTML, not from anothe SWF..

I am a Flex developer and I am trying to load an AS2 swf in my AS3 code.The load itself works, but the parameters are not transported for some reason.
This is my code.
var urlrequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest();
urlrequest.url = "Pres.swf?test=test1";
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.load(urlRequest);
In the handler function for the complete event, when I checked for the parameters in contentLoaderInfo, there is just an empty object associated with it(I guess, there are no key- value pairs in it atleast).I cannot make any changes to the AS2 swf, because I don't have any tools to build it right now.
I am using php to read a file (specified by a cookie on the users machine) with the function readfile(). The file I am reading is an actionscript 3 flash file that depends on a configuration file appended to the url to function properly. Ex: [URL]. When I use readfile - the headers are set properly and the swf is returned to the browser which then runs it. I have discovered that using this method the config file (CONFIG_URL) has to be appended to the php file's url to be read properly by the swf - as the swf considers the path to the php file it's own. This is fine when these are the only two elements involved - but when loading the php>read(swf) combination into another swf - the 'read' swf returns a url that is null (using this.root.loaderInfo.url) and therefore fails to execute properly as there is no config file (CONFIG_URL). How can I load in a swf file from a php page (using readfile, fopen, whatever) and pass in $get parameters?

I'd also like for the "image_loader" to load inside a container with certain size constraints. I found code that does the resize but I don't know how to make the bridge between the image_loader, a possible movieclip container and the resize function as I might use the loaded image in more then one place of different sizes. If I atleast pull it off with 1 I'll just use more swf's to pull off the effect if its otherwise too complicated.
So I have an MC that has 6 labels and 6 buttons all with different names. When you click on a button, it needs to direct you to it's appropriate frame label in the MC. Now, since AS 3.0 has done away with inline functions, how the heck do I code it so I don't have a function with a bunch of if statements inside of it in addition to all of my eventListeners that I have to add to each of my buttons? In AS 2.0, I would have done it like so:
Code:
function movePlayhead(whichOne:String):Void{
this.gotoAndStop(whichOne);
} button1_mc.onRelease = function():Void{
movePlayhead("label1");
};
button2_mc.onRelease = function():Void{
movePlayhead("label2");
};
Etc...
With AS 3.0, you have to add eventListeners to each of your buttons where each eventListener calls a function, but how can I write it so I don't have to write a bunch of if statements inside the function the eventListeners are calling in order to test for which button is being clicked? Like so:
Code:
button1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, movePlayHead);
button2_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, movePlayHead);
button3_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, movePlayHead);
function movePlayHead(event:MouseEvent):void {

I've been browsing lots of forums lately regarding the issues involved with passing parameters into functions called by event listeners. I think I may have come up with a good solution using anonymous functions but I'm not sure yet if its "safe" to do.
Code:
this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, function(e:Event):void {
myFunction(e, arguments.callee, "hello")
});[code]....
The code prints "hello" once, which is what I wanted. I believe I have deleted the anonymous function, but I need some thoughts from those who may be more knowledgeable about flash garbage collection and such to be sure.
I'm passing in a variable from my FlashVar parameters: gameToken, which will control the visibility of several objects through out my movie. The objects are in different frames and all have different labels: review_btn, introReview_btn, endGame_btn. gameToken is being randomly generated by the clients 3D environment, and then passed in the embed code. gameToken would look something like this:
[Code]...
I had some success using this method before, but only for a single object. Now when I try and repeat the method with the various other objects all I'm getting is a headache. At no point in my movie does gameToken ever get set to anything other than null (I'm not testing within my webspace yet).

I've got a zoomable map within a frame, and of course I don't want it to be dragged out of view, right?
So, how do I set the startDrag (L,T,R,B) parameters when it's a different size when it's enlarged (zoomed)?
Would it be advisable to somehow set multiple conditions to do something like this? (if so, how would I do it?)
if ( between Size>100 AND Size<200) {
startDrag(this, false,400,150,600,250);
}
if ( between Size>200 AND Size<400) {
startDrag(this, false,500,250,500,150);
}
Would it be advisable to do something like that? If so, how would I code it?
If not, what would be a better idea?
...I swear, adding this zoom feature added a whole level of complexity to this map that I've never imagined.

I've created a very simple video player that I want to use with many different FLV files on my site. Rather than packaging SWF files with each FLV, I'd like to just design one SWF file and have the corresponding HTML file pass the URL of the FLV as a parameter to the SWF. I've read a lot about passing in parameters from HTML to SWF using AS3, and it seems pretty straightforward. Here's an example of the code I created using Flash CS3 and ActionScript 3.0:
this.loaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,loaderComplete);
function loaderComplete(evt:Event):void {
//traceText.text = "Loaded";
[Code]....
Note that I'm using the variable "userName" to pass the parameter. Eventually I'd use a variable like "movieURL" to convey the actual URL of the FLV file. In any case, when I run the code, I get ... nothing! Nothing but a blank text box. Both the HTML and SWF files are on my local machine.
If I uncomment the "//traceText.text = Loaded" line, the text box says "Loaded", which would indicate that the event listener is functioning properly.
How can I get access to the parameters that are passed into the swf, such as My.swf?xyz=123 ? How can I get the value of xyz?
