ActionScript 2.0 :: Multiple Instance Of Buttons Loading Same Data?
Jun 27, 2009
I am pulling data and attempting to assign it to multiple buttons on the _root of my project. Currently, the buttons are positioning themselves really nicely in the proper position, all with the EXACT SAME value.
Here is the script... OMG I am going nuts trying to get this to work.. I mostly do PHP, so AS is... well, different.
HTML Code:
function loadBookmarks() {
// Return the number of items from the text field variable NumItems (it's in the myData object).
[Code]....

I have a flash component that is an image gallery. I want to have multiple image galleries on my site, but instead of multiple instances of the component, I want to have multiple buttons that can be clicked that will load in different xml files to populate the component.
Would code like this do something like that:
var eventListener = new Object();
eventListener.button_click = function (evnt){ trace("Button clicked");} myGallery.addEventListener("button_click", eventListener);

I've got a problem when loading a particularly large XML file, and then loading a CSS file after. I get data overflowing into the CSS file from the XML file.
However, after testing, it seems to only happen if I load a file that's rather large. When I load a smaller XML file, then load my CSS, the CSS data is clean of the previously loaded XML.Is there another way of loading files (other than URLLoader)Here's an example of some test code.
ActionScript Code:
package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;

I have this array that contains the names of various images I want to load into Flash
var imageArray:Array=["image1","image2","image3","image4","image5","image 6","image7","image8","image9","image10"];
Now I want to create 10 different buttons with each button loading in an image. I know there's a way to do this with a for loop without having to make 10 different buttons and writing 10 different functions. Not sure how to correlate the members imageArray with the generated btns.

I am trying to have one single loader for different buttons to load their specific target. lets say I have btnOne and btnTwo, each of them have their page to link to, btnOne to pageOne, btnTwo to pageTwo, page one and two are external swfs. so can I load them into stage by sharing one single loader?
this is simply my script:
ActionScript Code:
var swfURL:String = ("external.swf");
btnOne.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, startLoad);
btnTwo.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, startLoad);

I have a problem when making flash applications with more than one frame that has symbols placed on it in that I can't declare all of the event listeners for the objects at the same time and I have found that even if I put them all on the first frame, add the event listeners, then click through to the next frame then the buttons won't work on that frame.
Does anyone have any idea how I could solve this? I did consider myself a fairly competent AS3 programmer until I realised I had no idea how to handle this sort of thing. Solved: I initialised the clips from my external class and then addChild'd and removeChild'd them as I needed to and placed their x and y on addChilding.

i have an if statement, an object will go to a new frame if multiple buttons are pressed
PHP Code:[code].....
now i want it so that if one condition is met the mc will goto frame 2, if 2 conditions are met, frame 3 and if 3 conditions are met, frame 4.i know i could do this with a lot of if statements but i have a lot of movie clips to use this code on, so is there any way to write an if statement that will trigger different options if multiple conditions are met?

I am using Flash CS4 with ActionScript 3 and I am fairly new at it. I am struggling with two things.
1. How can I start a movie clip while scrolling over a button? I know how to start a movie clip when a button is clicked.
2. How can I use multiple movie clips for seperate buttons?

I want the list to work as buttons and highlight both the button and the particular image on the map... and when you click you link to a certain location.I also want to be able to MouseOver the map, have both the image on the map and the corresponding 'button' from the list highlight - but when you click, you go to a different location than if you would have clicked from the list.I have it set up - but something is conflicting. Here is how I have my code set:

I have a group of 16 images that I would like to load 1 of each into each movieclip. I want image1 to be inside of visual1, image 2 inside of visual2, and so on. the images are named like, 1960s_(1).png where the 1960 (year) part is coming from the rangeNum variable. The above gives me this error: 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addChild through a reference with static type int.

i have been building a library that has thumbnails which you click to view the full image. i have built the application it works but i want to change the way the image on the actual thumbnail loads using code instead of manually adding the value to the url loader component.
var myX;var instanceN:String;trace(instanceN);var currentLoad:uint = 0;// current loader and image loadingvar thumbnailURL:String;//Thumbnail URLvar thumbReq:URLRequest;// Thumbnail url requestfor(var k:uint = 0;k < iL_btn.length; k++)[code].....
the loop runs fine without the last line of code which i've commented out.the make up of these thumbnails are a uiLoader component which are each inside there own movieClip.what i wanted this to do was every time the loop runs it currentLoad adds 1 to its value then that value is subbed into instanceN:String and thumbnailURL address that bit works the trace statements read correctly.but my issue is using the instanceN value as the instance name path which then loads the current thumbnailURL value which is the URL address for the thumbnail picture.when i try to load the url address using the commented out code above i got the error .TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.the trace statements correct values below
the first value is the currentLoad value.
the second value is the instance name path.
the third is is the URL address for the thumbnail.[code].....

I have 50 images that need to be on stage, which will be embedded into 50 different movie clips. I named the movie clips image1-image50 and the images are in an external folder named 1-50. Every freaking article or tutorial I have found clearly explains how to upload one image, or just one at a time. I can do that, and spend 2 days renaming all the functions, but I do not want to do that. Is there a better way to just load all 50 images, place them accordingly?

I'm following a tower defence tutorial and part of the code is set up so I can build towers on the "grass" movie clip. I wanted to add more patches of "grass" and gave them all the same instance name so I can be able to place towers on them, but I have the problem that I can only place towers on the first item I placed and has the instance name of "grass". I can't seem to place towers on the other patches of grass.I removed the instance name of the first patch of grass and it let me build towers on the second patch, but the second patch only.

It might sound confusing so let me explain the situation. I made a movieClip. And in that movieClip I have a dynamic textfield set. I called this textfield "AmmoCount".I dragged this movieClip onto the stage several times and each time I called on the AmmoCount varible in each movieclip and gave it a different value. I get the following error TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.[code]
When I trace these objects, weapon1.AmmoCount works, but weapon2.AmmoCount shows as empty. Yet they both contain a value in them. Ive used the weapon1 property and weapon2 property countless times and there is no doubt that it works. so why doesnt it work for weapon2. but for weapon1. Below is some code that I called on earlier that shows they work.[code]these worked! but when I called on the AmmoCount text box within them, I get the error. The following image you can find within the weapon1 movieClip

Got 9 MCs which I want a rollover effect for. I made 1, copied it and it's instance name 9 times. And made this script:
Code:
function menu_btn_over() {
myTween = new mx.transitions.Tween(_root.main.menu.btn.btn_parent, "_x", mx.transitions.easing.Strong.easeOut, _root.main.menu.btn.btn_parent._x, 0, inspeed);
[code]...
But it only works for one of the buttons. The one I made the copies from.I figured you could do this since it's the same MC? I could be wrong though. If that is the case, is there some way I can make the same action for every button without having to make a bunch of calls for each one? for example:
"_root.main.menu.btn1 <and> btn2 <and> btn3 <and> etc.onRollOut = function() {"

I am trying to make a game where I am going to have different "Tiles" for each type of terrain. in my code I am calling on "Tile_GOLD" like this for a hit test:
[Code]...
and so my problem is that Multiple instance names don't really work, so I tried exporting for actionscript and that didn't really help either. So is there a way that I can call the tile in the characters code or is there a way that I can determine the hittest in the tile? Not necessarily for all of them to go to the next frame but to maybe have them make the character not be able to move. Also if anyone could give me a hittest code for making a mc not be able to go through an object

i would like to add multiple copies of one instance "mytocka_mc" to stage using ENTER_FRAME
here is the code that does all i need except leaving multiple copies of myTocka_mc on stage
I was googling and found it got something to do with arrays i think i should create an array and on every ENTER_FRAME copy my original instance, push copied instance to array and at the end add whole array to the stage but i really dont know how to do that
Code:
kreni_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, kreniClick);
stani_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, staniClick);
var go:Boolean = true;

I have three buttons on my stage, each with an instance name of USA_btn, Canada_btn, and Mexico_btn. I also have corresponding text with instances names of USA_txt, Canada_txt, and Mexico_txt. When file opens, you see all three buttons on stage and USA_txt. When the user clicks Canada_btn, the USA_txt should fade out, and Canada_txt should fade in. I need to accomplish this with action script as I will eventually have 10 combinations.
I can determine the instance name when a button is clicked with event.CurrentTarget.name. How can I use the instance name to:
1) Fade out old text?
2) Fade in new text?
I assume I will set opacity=0 but I keep getting error #1056: Cannot create property alpha on String.

I am trying make a button that plays a movieclip whose instance name is in an array.
for example my array (named "current") consists of an movieclip instance name:
ActionScript Code:
current = ["instanceName"]
Using the trace command, I know that the array definitely contains the name.
Now, I want to insert that instance name from the array into a gotoAndPlay command on a button like this:
ActionScript Code:
(((instanceName from Array here))).gotoAndPlay("2");

I have 6 movieclips on the stage, each with a unique instance name. I just want to put them in order determined from an external xml file.I can get the name and order of each instance name evident from a trace, but I can't use that xml variable name to position the x on the stage.Seems simple, but it won't let me use the variable as an instance name:
//begin AS3
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xml:XML = new XML();
