I am working on a project which loads several external swfs into a container and I was wondering if there�s a way to give the container an action, for example:
GotoAndPlay or loads a different swf, if the file can't be found.
I'm trying to load an image found in a xml file into a movieclip but am not having much luck... I get this error (I changed the path to shorten):
Error opening URL 'file:///Cpathonmycomputer/myflashproject/undefined'
the code I'm using looks like:
Code:
var _imgme =_xml.firstChild.childNodes[_currSong].childNodes[3].firstChild.nodeValue;
imgholder.loadMovie(_imgme[_currSong], 1);
imgholder is the MC on the stage, _currSong is the current xml child being read.
I am compiling my css files to swf files and loading them at run time. I have no problem compiling these and using ClassReference statements most of the time:
[Code]...
Does not work. The difference is that the HeaderBackground is a class in the same project as the css file. That does compiel fine if I move the style into my mxml file though.
I wonder if the compiler uses different source paths when compiling the css fiels or something. This is in FlashBuilder 4 build 269271 SDK 13963

I'm attempting to compile a Flex application from an ANT script, inside of Eclipse (CFBuilder, based on Eclipse), and I've run into this error:
Could not load definitions from resource flexTasks.tasks. It could not be found.
I haven't been able to find anything that gives directions on where this file (flexTasks.tasks) should be copied to, if it's needed at all. Some places indicate that it should be part of the flexTasks.jar file. I've tried two different things:
Copy the jar file into the ant/plugins/lib folder (and restart my CF Builder instance)Specify the path to the jar in the classpath attribute, as suggested by the comment on this page Neither helps me get past this error.Here's my build script, for reference:

I need to be able to trap if a sound file has been found or not. At the moment Im using loadSound to load in the file, and onLoad to set the movie running when the sound has been loaded. I have 2 outcomes in the onLoad, one that saves a varaible saying the sound is there and one that says it isnt, if the file cant be found. The probelm is that onLoad doesnt wait to detect that a sound file is defintly there before firing off the failed to load command.
It does this several times while loading in a large mp3 as well. I need to check if the file is there or not as I have a onSoundComplete function that tells the movie to go to the next point when the sound completes. I still need the movie though to push on to the next point even if the file cant be found, which onSoundComplete wont. The outcome variables are my current way of telling the movie to move on if the file cant be found. But with onLoad so quick to jump the gun it reaches the code to move on to the next point before it starts to load the sound. Heres the code im currently using:

I have a loop that is running to display images of all my clients.So, the image names are client0.png, client1.png,client2.png and so forth.I have a movie clip that is duplicated and uses the Loadmovie command to call the images. The code I'm using looks like this.
var position = 0;
for (i=0; i<50; i++) {
emptyMC.duplicateMovieClip("emptyMC"+i, i, {_y:+position});
var position = position +150
loadMovie ("http://www.url.com/client"+i+".png", "emptyMC"+i);
It's working great! But I don't have 50 clients, so I was wondering if there was a way to terminate this loop once it was unable to find a file. Does it already terminate once the file isn't found? Every time I test, the output unfortunately tells me "file cannot be found blah blah blah" or whatever. And all I want to do in order to update this page is to upload another image to the server without going back into the .swf and changing the i<50 to the exact number of clients I have.
I am using a PC and my consultant is on a Mac. I have sent her my working files along with a folder of referenced .as files. For some reason, when she goes to compile her movie it gives an error that the referenced .as file cannot be found. It works fine on my machine.
I have double and triple checked to ensure she has all the correct files within the correct local directories so I am completely stumped. I am using Flash CS4 and she is on CS5
Searching in Google for ways to gracefully degrade Flash naturally yields many results relating to the lack / disabling of browser support for Flash.In Firefox it seems to work as expected whereby the alternative text kicks in - e.g. "We could not load this content (the file may not exist, or you may need to install Flash)". In Internet Explorer the element (e.g. 500x500px) loads but it is empty/blank instead of displaying alternative text.[code]

Also, it doesn't say in the tutorial, so I created a new layer first and then dragged the snowflake symbol onto the stage and then added the script to it. (now there are 2 layers on my timeline). Although it doesn't say to make a new (2nd) layer. Surely you can't do everything on the same layer, because you need to add 2 different scripts which you can't do to one layer.

I can't seem to remove / unload the external swf files e.g when the carousel.swf (portfolio) is displayed and I press the about button the about content is overlapping the carousel (portfolio) .

View 15 RepliesWe're trying to add a simple link to an existing Flash file. There looks to be at least 7 separate .as files and a separate swf that loads the main swf which all seems overly complex for what is essentially a page with six buttons on it.However, we need to add a URL to some of the text. So we converted the text to a button, added an instance name of <ssbpurchasetickets_btn> then added the following Actionscript into the actions layer on the frame the text/button appears:
ssbpurchasetickets_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, ssbButtonPurchase);
function ssbButtonPurchase(event:MouseEvent):void
{[code]......
When we publish the file we get the following error which seems to cascade into a whole bunch more errors:Description: 1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: MouseEvent.Source: function ssbButtonPurchase(event:MouseEvent):void
We added "ssb" onto the button and functions to ensure there were no conflicts but the same thing occurred. If we copy the button into a new file everything works so it must be conflicting with something in the main files.
Randomly on Sunday night the FMS Admin Console which you can access via [URL] stopped working, as in it would not load. It times out and Firefox says 'Server Not Found' It was working fine on Sunday morning and has been doing for a year now, I rebooted the server and that did nothing. I have no idea why it will not load as the server runs fine and I can still stream and everything.
