View 2 RepliesI'm trying to import some variables set up in a .txt file. However the variables that I would like to behave like numbers are not doing so.
I have a variable in the text file called "&middleimg=1" when I pull this in and say do the following:
Code:
var numvar:Number=0;
numvar = _root.myvars.middleimg+1;
I get "11" rather then "2" as the result. I tried setting up my text file as such: "&middleimg:Number=1" but get an "undefined" result. Is there anyway to get imported variables to behave like a number instead of a string?

I'm not a real actionscipt person as I usually only code simple buttons and the like. I have a scrollbar that I grabbed off a resources site. (code below) I want it so that whenever I put the cursor on the scollbar to move it that the graphical information under the scrollbar comes on (either reveal or opacity to 100%). At the moment the little thumbnails under the scrollbar are on all the time and area bit of a distraction (they are meant to assist in the use of the scrollbar by minimising searching behaviour).

I'm designing a platformer game, in which the code is all held within the character MC. I want to pause the game using something like 'delete this.onEnterFrame' as a start point to terminate code. The code layout within the character is like so:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
...
this.onEnterFrame = function(){ //within clip event
...
if(btnon == 1){ // when button pressed(on stage)) global value of 1 is true
delete this.onEnterFrame;
}...}}
Due to the fact its within a clip event structure, it doesn't pause it, instead it slows everything down. Would I have to construct all my code in a frame layer or can I still use an MC to terminate this?

! I just did the Kirupa XML tutorial (for Flash MX) and ... I actually understand! But now I need to change a few things.. and I haven't got a clue. Right now, I know how to import text from an XML file into different text boxes. But, what I need to do, is be able to import text regardless of how many text boxes my FLA file has.

The desired affect is simple: I have a single button... with each click I want it to load text into a dynamic text field and load a corresponding picture or movieclip.There are only three unique text/image combinations- after its displayed the third, with the next click I want it to just start over. All the text functions perfectly with each click.
The problem is:I use "createEmptyMovieClip" then use the resulting clip as a loader clip.. With the first click I want a movieclip from the library to load, so I use the "attachMovie" method- it displays the first library fine.With the next click I want to load an external swf- so I call the "loadMovie" method of the loaderclip... The external swf loads just fine replacing the first library clip.The third clip is where I have problems... now I want to load another library item into the loaderclip... so I tried using the attachMovie method again but the external swf remains static... then with the next click, I discover the first library item no longer loads and the external swf remains still playing- it's like once it's been loaded into the loaderclip it cant be moved...
So I tried adding the "unloadMovie" method in the code for the third click.. it successfully removed the swf... but the next line of code immediately after the unload statement, doesn't work. The line calls the attachMovie method for the loaderclip... but the library item doesnt load... Oddly enough, with the next click, the first library item now does load as if everything's fine... It seems like you cant use the unloadMovie and attachMovie on the same executing code? if that makes any sense... the basic idea was that if I couldnt get the attachmovie method to replace the loaded external swf, then I would use the unload method to remove it, then have code immediately after, to then execute the attachMovie method... but it still doesnt load the library clip. and I know it's not a type-o, because when I comment out the loadMovie and unloadMovie statements, it loads both the library items perfectly ? The code is below
var increment:Number = 1;
var verbiage1:String = "Hello World1";
var verbiage2:String = "Hello World2";[code].............
I'm almost too embarrased to ask about how to import a text (.txt or .doc) into Flash but how?I've been working on the computer too long since 8:30 this morning or maybe I've worked in Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop for 20+ years and know them inside and out but am still learning the different ways that Flash handles things.
View 7 RepliesI'm working on someone's Flash project and my task is to add roll over text to all the buttons in the project. The problem is I can't use the actual buttons because the are underneath some other animation. What I want to do is to add roll over text using the coordinates of the button but not the actual button.

View 3 RepliesIm trying to make a game, but want to use specific text input to get points, this is probably simple but it doesnt seem to work for me. Essentially I have a text input area on the screen and if the user enters the right value and then clicks continue they get points. I have a text input area named numgame and have attached this code to the continue button:
on (release) {
if (numgame = "343"){
_root.score = _root.score + 100;
gotoAndPlay(536);
}
}
Currently it seems like the if statement isnt even doing anything, the score is added once continue is pressed no matter what is entered. Is there a better/ correct way of doing this.
my client wants to be able to edit copy on his site, i have made a flash file for the text how can i take care of this so he can edit an extrenal text doc and it can show up on the site ?
View 1 RepliesI have a loop which duplicates a MC ('news_list')on the stage and places it underneath the most recent clip...
code:
for( i = 0; i < total; i++)
{
var news= news_list.news_item.duplicateMovieClip("news_item" +i, i);[code].........
I have a text box inside the MC which autosizes depending on how much text is inserted from an xml file. This should then obviously increase the height of my 'news_list' movieclip.What I want is for the next instance of the 'news_list' MC to be placed directly underneath the current one,no matter the height of the clip.Currently,I can only get it to position a specified distance below the current instance.The code above is what I've currently got,but I can't quite grasp how to grab the height of the current instance, and then use that in the code to place the next instance below it...
this post references the files listed at:i've implemented a dynamic text box that calls a txt file into it. it uses a scroller that i found a tutorial on:i've got everything working splendidly - everything EXCEPT the scrolling bar... as you can see, it scrolls up and down just fine, but doesn't control the text.i've pretty much exhausted my search through the actionscript to locate the problem and i can't find it.
View 1 RepliesI have a dynamic text box that loads different external html files that scroll with buttons. When I load a new html file, it starts at the same point that the previous file was scrolled to. I need to reload the text box so that the new file starts at the top.
View 1 Repliesmy problem is that I have made a scrolling text. Now I want one word inside the scrolling text to be a link to another page.
I tried this with an invisible button on a second layer above the word, but the button does not stay on its place on different screens. Is there a solution. Looks to me as a basic thing every web designer ought to know.
I had a form working fine at [URL] and then I edited something that made it screw up. I have been poring over the code but I can't figure out what I did wrong.look at the Contacts page and tell me if you can discern what would cause the lettering in the dynamic text boxes.
