ActionScript 2.0 :: One Swf File To Load Different Txt Files?
Mar 19, 2004
They click on the topic and the swf file opens up ( I do not integrate it into my site ) It draws the questions and answers from an external txt file. I want to minimise the amount of storage on my site, so I want to make this one swf file be able to get questions from a different range of txt files depending which topic pupils choose.
Currently in the first frame it says
loadQuestions = new LoadVars();
loadQuestions.load("spain.txt");
Would I need to insert a frame in front of this with a selection of buttons which would refer to different topics. Then on this frame an if else kind of clause ? Hope you can understand the message and offer some guidance. lesley

I can't figure out how to load external swf files(9) into my master.swf file one after the other. This is the Actionscript i have written so far.....(AS2)
var myItems:Array = new Array("swf01.swf", "swf02.swf", "swf03.swf", "swf04.swf", "swf05.swf", "swf06.swf", "swf07.swf", "swf08.swf", "swf09.swf");
var myMCL:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var myListener:Object = new Object();
myMCL.addListener(myListener);
myMCL.loadClip("myItems[0]", this.getNextHighestDepth());
The first swf loads alright into my master swf but i can't for the life of me work out how to load the rest after each one has finished loading. Don't know if i need a for loop or what?

I wrote this script a while ago and it's worked extremely well for me ever since. I use it in nearly every project I do. But the other day I was asked to do a project where I could only use Flash 7.
This is a class I made to easily handle multiple file preloading by passing it an array of files to load. It only has two useful methods. One gets you the current total progress (total of all the files 0-100%) and an onLoadComplete. The actual usage is in the top of the file. It works great under Flash 8, so go ahead and use it.

Structure: There is 1 main file that loads external SWF files depending on what is clicked on.One of the external SWF files loads its text from external text files. This works fine when viewing the SWF applet on its own. But when viewing as a whole site, the text doesnt appear. Very annoying.I made that particular SWF on my mums computer running Flash MX 2004The flash file itself uses the Scrollbar component from MX.Could someone tell me why the text doesnt load in this scenario? It runs fine on its own, just not as an external SWF.

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) . How can I remove / unload an external swf file from the main flash file and load a new swf file, while at the same time removing garbage collection from memory?

what I'm trying to do is make a preloader that will preload about 20 external SWF files before it lets you get to my main file. I want to do this because my main file needs the SWFs to be ready to go once its done loading. I have looked around and i found a few ways to do this with the "if (loadedBytes>=totalBytes)" and the code loops back till the files are done loading... this would be just what i need but i cant seem to get it to work. the file just seems to start loading my files but does not loop and just runs the time-line even once i state what frames i want it to loop.

I have a question about loading external data. When I had all my actionscript export to frame one, it would slow down the preloader and not show up until it was far into the progress bar animation. So I moved everything to frame 2. The problem with that is now my menus which are populated from an xml file are not there when the site starts to play. How can I get my xml data to load on frame one, but leave the .as fils to load in frame 2?

I have a rotaing menu that loads in images from an xml file, I would also like it to load in text info from the same xml file to the left side of the images that load in. In my main .fla have created a movieclip and called it 'textInfo' and inside that I have two dynamic text fields called 'headerText' and 'bodyText' where I want to load the text in. this is what I am using to loading in the text in my actionscript, is this correct?

This is driving me nuts right now! I'm trying to load different swf files, but for some reason the first swf keeps reloading instead of new one. This is my structure: I have a main file main.swf where I can load in 1.swf, 2.swf or 3.swf. Lets say I load 1.swf, that works fine. But When I'm in 1.swf I have 3 buttons where I can load 1.swf over agian, or 2.swf or 3.swf. No matter which button I press I always load in 1.swf!!
I have different names on loaders and functions! So everything is separated correctly. Just don't now whats going on, spooky!

I used to merge the .swf files by a free software named Flash Package. It can merge the individual swf files into a single swf file or .exe file. It will allow you play this single file again and again.Currently I find if the total swf files size are more than 500mb, it will not allow me to merge them together. Therefore, I think if I can write an Actionscript code that loads individual swf files and play them one by one. When it played all the file, it is able to automatically play the first one.Unfortunately, I only know how to load one file. I wrote code as follow:[code]My question is how I can tell flash that the previous swf file has been played and reached to the end then loaded next one?

For some reason my slideshow gallery will not work with specific swf files. I can't find any correlation between the ones that work and the ones that don't work - stage size, length, as3 version, actions, ect don't seem to matter.
I'm tempted to chalk to up to a bug in CS4 and try to install CS3, but I was wondering if anyone has ran into this before.

I'm currently working on a project that contains a lot of data, about 14.000 records. This means an xml file of about 3mb. Now my question is: Should I use the xml file to load all the data at once, or should I use a webservice, that provides the data when I need it? Keep in mind that I'm new to webservices. And if I'm going to use a webservice: How do I store the data, in a mySQL database?How fast is a webservice?

I have a little app that can read and write content that is stored in XML files. As those files get updated and re-loaded quite often I have made the experience that the browser tends to use the old/cached XML-data. Can I somehow flag the URLLoader that I use to load the XML to always load the actual file instead of looking for cached versions?

I was wondering how to embed an swf file inside another swf file, If i simply import it to the stage or the library it will become a symbol but the actionscript interactivity is lost, another question is can I have an actionscript 2 file play within an actionscript 3 file? The actionscript 2 code for embedding is something like this: don't mind the _mc titles

I need some help. I want to use several swf files and have them be called upon in a container file and play them in sequence. It's a presentation that needs to play thru but still have the ability to stop, click on items, open a popup and then continue on in the presentation. I am building all the individual "chapters" and their "sub-chapters" as swf files, with the hope that I can load them in order. I am relatively new to AS3.

I have created a flash game which is about 11 MB in size and i have created the progBar in the first frame of the swf...
But it only shows the loading process after few MBs of data beign loaded...which might take some time and cause the user to close the tab..
I dont want this to happen...How i could tell the user at least that the swf is loading without any percentage and all the animations.
