ActionScript 2.0 :: Url From External Txt File Not Being Read?

Jul 11, 2005

I've inherited a menu bar (www.ensim.com). You can see that when you hover over the buttons (most of them, anyway) you get a drop down with subnav links.

The way they did it was to populate the movie clip with text from an external .txt file, so you could easily add sub links and change urls and stuff. Nifty idea.

The problem is a new url I'm trying to add apparently contains an escape character that it doesn't like. The new url is "/index.asp?page=solutions&sec=voip". When that goes in there, it won't write the link lable (<a href="borked url">This doesn't show up</a>)

Sort of weird, I kind of assumed that, being a plain old txt file, it would just spit it out and move along.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Read External .as File Without Recompiling?

Dec 21, 2009

Just wondering if flash is able to do this using a 3rd party app perhaps? Im creating a flash application (closed source), and I want it for others to be able to customize the program in the means of changing text colors by editing the actionscript using an external .as file. Problem is, the external actionscript works, but it will only work when I recompile or republish the fla file in flash.

Looking for a way for flash to read the external .as file without using the fla file.

Linux :: Intercept A Request To Read A Particular File And Instead Generate The Apparent Output Of That File Read Programatically

Mar 31, 2010

A friend of mine has a Flash Action script running on a LAMP server that currently reads an xml config file. He's asked me if it's possible to remove the xml file, and replace it somehow with a system (lets call it an 'auto xml generator') that intercepts the request to read that file and generates an output, so it appears to all intents and purposes as if the file still exists and contains the contents that has actually been returned from our auto xml generator'

ActionScript 3.0 :: Cs3 - Create A Glossary That Is Read From An External *.txt File

May 11, 2009

I wish to create a glossary that is read from an external *.txt file. The glossary function like a dictionary in that there is a word, its definition, and a link to a relevent page where the word appears. e.g. <label="apple" def="that thing people eat" url="apple.txt"> The reason I want it external to flash is so that new words can be added and removed manually and flash will simply update. A user can type in a word to search for in the "sorted alphabetically" list within flash.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Refresh Or Loop To Read External Xml File?

Nov 12, 2009

I have a swf with the following script:

XML_var = new XML();
// now load up the url.
XML_var.load("http://www.lick.fm/tracklist.xml");
// when xml is loaded call functon displayXML

[Code].....

This ascript reads an external xml file and picks up the tracklist names for current playing and previous playing songs on my radio station website. It works and looks perfectly fine but i need this to refresh every 30 seconds to read the dynamic xml file and update flash.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Possible To Read Declaration When Loading External XML File?

Aug 16, 2010

When loading an external XML file into flash, is it possible to read the XML declaration and other data such as xml-stylesheet? If so, how?

XML FILE
Code: Select all<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet href="books.xsl" type="text/xsl"?>
<content>
<book>Hello</book>
</content>

AS3:
Code: Select all//Set XML calls
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, xmlLoaded);
xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest("xml/books.xml"));
function xmlLoaded(e:Event):void {
var xml:XML =new XML(e.target.data);
When tracing, the XML declaration is gone, so I am not sure how to read or target it.
trace(xml);
}

Actionscript 3 :: Swf File Can't Read Data From Config.xml File In The Same Flex Directory

Feb 28, 2012

I have a main swf file and config.xml located in the same directory. My .swf file uses config.xml to fetch config variable which it does with success.The problem appears when I put those files into Flex directory. I embed .swf file like this.

<mx:Image id="loading" source="@Embed('/blobs/visualLogo/mySwfFile.swf')"
visible="true" horizontalCenter="0"/>

I also place config.xml into /blobs/visualLogo/

This time I get an error in Flex:

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Change Gallery To Read Php File Instead Of Txt File?

Nov 8, 2006

trying to change a gallery that reads xml file to one that reads txt files and that also has a preloader and centrally resizes automatically. since i got no replies i tried and finally after a few months managed to get it to read txt files. unfortunately, i have realised that i require the gallery to read data from a php file and not a txt file because i dont have the permissions to create a txt file and edit it on the server.

Code:
spacing = 10;
//photo._alpha = 0;
pArray = new Array();

ActionScript 3.0 :: Read TotalFrames From An External SWF?

Sep 16, 2010

I want to create a kind of "video player" that will allow me to move a playhead accross all theses SWF that are playing back to back.  What I need to do is get the totalFrames of all these swf objects that are to be loaded.  I tried loading each SWF (using the Loader class ofcoarse)  and on the COMPLETE event grab the totalFrames and then move to the next SWF to populate an array that will be used to create a UI piece. The problem is that it starts playing the swf once it load and you can hear the background sound of each SWF.  It also slows the program down.  Is there anyway of grabbing the totalFrame property from external SWF's without actually having to load each SWF?

My code to it, is in a frame:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Read From .csv File?

Nov 25, 2009

So lets say I created a simple game with all of the parameters are stored in variables. At any time of the game the user can press save, and these variables will be sent to .csv file using PHP. Each time the user presses save, it will add a new line in the file. This I know how to do.

Here is what I don't know how to do. How would I make it so that when the game is started, I wanted it to load the last line of variables from the .csv file into the game? So basically the last save needs to be loaded when the game is started.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Is It Possible That SWF File Could Read Its Own Name?

Mar 30, 2011

Is there a AS function or another way a SWF file could read its own filename? The reason for that I have a FLASH chess game which can store the position of the pieces in a sharedObject. The name of the sharedObject file as well its path has to be hard-coded. If I need to have several chess-games played at a time on the same computer, to store each game position I need to compile a separate SWF with a different sharedObject filename hard-coded. A user will fill more independent if he could just save a copy of the same SWF under a different name. But in this case how shall I make each copy of the SWF use its own sharedObject?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Zero Is Not Read From Xml File?

Im sure this is really rather retarded, but zeros are not being read from my xml file into the dynamic text boxes. ie. if I have a 10 it reads it as 1, and if I have 101 it reads it as 11.the strings calling the nodes from the xml file look like this:this.ref["pos1"].text = nodes[0].firstChild.firstChild.toString();and the xml file is like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encode="UTF-8"?>
<nodes>
<node>
