ActionScript 2.0 :: Loadvars To Load Integers?
Sep 18, 2009
I've been busting my head forever on this... I'm trying to load variables from an external txt file in the same folder as my SWF file to be used as normal variables in _root and not in Text Fields, every method or Tutorial I found and tried with both LoadVars() and LoadVariables() only works with loading into Dynamic Text Feilds but there is no way I can copy those values into normal variables to be used for other purposes like integers and normal strings...
I've read over a dozen tutorials and tried more than 30 different lines of code but there seems to be no way to get the values into normal variables, the list of things I've tried is way too long to mention, so I'll just ask, anyone here know how to load values into normal variables and perhaps an Array? my text file is called "Strings.txt" but again I do not want to load those strings directly to a text Field I want them to be used in a different area...

Is there a way of making a normal loadVars.load load a url depending on a variable you set in the swf?
var reciever = new LoadVars();
loadurl = "test_onload_3.cfm?propertyID="+MY_VARIABLE_GOES_HERE;
reciever.load(loadurl);
so that I can set my variable and then load the variables with the propertyID that I choose in the swf??

I have a pre-made solution I purchased. But it only works when it's variables are all loaded from a #include .txt. Here's a sample file: [URL] It's all in the form of an include rather than a loadVars. Is there anyway to load this file with a loadVars?

I'd like to load a .txt file containing HTML with LoadVars, and have a link within the HTML code perform a Flash action. I'm sure I've seen this before but I'm not sure of the syntax, and I can't seem to find the documentation. If anyone could provide information or links to information on this, I would appreciate it.To clarify--let's say I've already loaded my HTML into Flash. I want a code kind of like this:
HTML Code:
<a action="myFunction();">Start this movie</a>
where myFunction() is defined in the Flash movie already.

Is there any workaround to load in complete html pages with LoadVars ?
I have this client that wants to update some pages (just adding and removing text and pictures), but I would love to do it in action scripting and have him update an external file.
Now I could tell him to remove the tags from <html> to <body> and from </body> to </html>, save it as text file and add a variable (like myText at the top of his file, but that wouldn't make things much easier for him.
He'll probably start to complain that it would have been easier if I'd made it in html instead of flash
how to display an html page inside of flash ? (except for opening browser windows and loading the page in that window ofcourse - that isn't good enough)

I am trying to control the visibility of a movie clip using a boolean variable contained within a text file.
The mc i want to make invisible is in a swf which is loaded into a 'master.swf' using a MovieClipLoader object.
I have managed to get text to display across various boxes in my loaded (child) MC using a loadvars obeject defined in the masterMC and used by the childMC. I just cant seem to be able to get the value of my Boolean variable to go with the text variables and therefore control the visibilty of my MC.
This is my code - (in the master movie):
var myLV:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
myLV.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
[Code]....

I've stumbled upon a strange thing in Flex. I created an integer variable:
var foo:int = 1;
And in the debugger it says foo is a Number with a value of 1.It wasn't a biggie for me but seems Numbers are being sent instead of integers when doing remote service calls. What's happening here?

Code:
var result:Number = int(driven.text) / int(mpg.text);
result1.text = String(result);
var result:Number = int(driven.text) / int(mpg.text + 3);
[Code].....
for some reason it doesnt work properly...the correct equation should work like this:
12000 (milesdriven) / 20(mpg) = 600
12000 (milesdriven) / 23(mpg + 3) = 521
600 - 521 = 79(gal.)
79 x $2.75 = $217.25
what im having problems with and what i need to function is that the MPG input has a +3 to any number inputted (i.e. 20 becomes 23)

I'm loading an XML file into flash, one of the fields is an ID of them item in the database the XML file was made from.I can load everything fine and have put all the data into a multi-dimensional array, but for some reason the ID is a string. I've tried using Number(myID), to covert it to an integer but nothing seems to work.So how can I load an Integer into Flash using XML and have Flash recognise it as an Integer?

i want to choose one of these randomly, I have a loop way in which there is a loop searching for the index number which is inside an array like M1[1]=1 , M2[1]=2 and if I have a random number between 1 and 20 I can loop the arrays [1] element.
But is there another way with directly get the random array buy name. For example I have the random number 14 which directs me to M14. how Name of the array help me to choose M14 when I have the number 14....

I heard that dynamic Object() properties, when looped through via a "for in" do not preserve their original order they were added to the Object.However if I use integers as object properties like this:

I'm getting a millisec timestamp in ActionScript as a Number object which can return a primitive double. I'd like to cast it for a backend that expects a primitive long long millisec, however the language does not provide long long. Am thinking a double can be converted to two ints and submitted together. Any encounter something like this and have a solution?

Is there anyway of changing an integer of 100, into a 1, 0 and another 0?In context, I've got game with a score. Every time you pick up a coin, it adds 10 to the score, there's 20 coins (so a max score of 200 possible). I've got numbers 0-9 as seperate images. The score currently is a single three digit integer, and I need it to be represented as three single digit integers so I can assign those to an image.

I have created a site that calls in text from an external .txt file. The text file is a flat file that is updateable using PHP. What I need is for the Flash site to reflect the current contents of the text file each time it's updated through the PHP interface. I'm using the standard:
myData = new LoadVars();
myData.onLoad = function() {
text_txt.text = this.blog;
[Code].....
I did get it to 'kind of work' at one point, but the output text would flash 'undefined', then show the contents of my text file, then go blank then start that loop over again. Not acceptable.

I want the file 'text1.txt' when I load frame 1, then when I move to frame 2 it will load 'text2.txt' etc etc right upto 20.
