Im working on a site with influences from this tutorial[URL]..It is basically a tutorial how you can make a 3D rotating carousel witch picturens from an external xml-file.
Although in the tutorial he makes the "buttons/pictures" go to an "output". I whould like it to go to another movie (loadMovie)
I'm teaching myself ActionScript and the book I'm reading just got into input text capabilities. The book shows me how to link input text to a variable and output that text to the output window using trace. My question is: how can I display the text that the user input onto the actual movie. For example... if I wanted the visitor to type their name into the input text box and click Submit and then a phrase shows up with their name such as "Hold on Name, my site will be done soon." How do I reference that variable and have it actually display in my movie?
I have set the PHP header for XML output, and changed lots of other things but could not make it work.The $match->getId() part is just returning an integer but IE always shows this value as 0. If I set <fan_id> and <match_id> manually, IE shows the values correctly. By the way, I am using this XML output in Flash (AS3) and this also shows the same result with IE.
alright, i want the output to be one after another, but right now it just overwrites a previous output in the loop. how would i get it to output one after another?
How would I go about compiling just AS3 in CS3? I tried having my .as files in a folder then creating a new .fla from within CS3 in the same folder but I cant seem to get any output.
I am still running Flash MX (04). Because I find flash a little more useable than other progs, I am using it to create a presentation. I am creating a project that I intend to only use as a standalone SWF (not uploadable to a site or anything). I intend to play the SWF full screen on a laptop and output to an LCD projector as a presentation. I have the stage set at 1024 x 768 and am using movie clips imported/embedded (which arent the full 1024x768 but slightly smaller ), text, photo's and audio. I am nearly 2/3rds the way through and the SWF file size is growing (currently at 16 meg). I expect it to be in the region of 90 meg + or so as some audio yet to be loaded and still photos are quite size heavy. Is there any way i can get the audio to sound a little clear as when the SWF is published the sound seems to lose a little quality in the compression. Also, what is the maximum size you would recommend a standalone SWF in this scenario should/could be?
if it's possible to dynamically output a swf from a playing swf? For example, if a user was running a swf movie and clicked a button, a swf could be dynamically published of a particular area within the swf.
I try this code... Bt when i render fla file through flash it shows output but when i jst play swf file it shows nothing
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN,KeyMovement)function KeyMovement(event:KeyboardEvent):void{ var myStr=String.fromCharCode(event.charCode) output.text="key is Pressed="+myStr}
i put an textbox on stage output but it is showing nothing...
I did a picture slide show in flash CS5 where I used actionsript 3. I added a button so that when you click it will go to the next picture. Then on the last one it will go from the last picture and reset back to the first picture. I even added some music with a stop and play button so if you are playing some music and say you get tired of it while looking through the pictures you can click the play/ stop button and it will stop.[code]...
This error occurs when I go to test movie about half way through my photo gallery this message will pop up. The thing about it is that despite the error all my images load and play correctly as they should and my sound plays and stops as I ask it too. I guess I could ignore the error seeing as how everything works 100% fine despite the error but I was just wondering if this error is something serious or if I should be concerned?
Does anyone know if it is possible to randomize assets in Flash. Basically I am creating a flash based application which when the user hits a target button the preceeding screen should show a completely random asset (which would be an SWF), at the moment each button is simply tagged to a particular swf, although i need it to be more random than this?
I'm new to flash but I have over 15 years in software and 20 in IT.In everything I have worked with so far in Flash I've used trace( message ) to put a message in the output window. Then it just stopped.
URL...returns some html that I want to parse in Actionscript.How do i call this page from Actionscript while getting back the response in a string variable?
I am trying to load an external XML file and then output select pieces of data (location data) based on mouseover events on different objects (images of provinces). Something is wrong with my attempt to put data from the XML into the text objects I created. I think it is finding the file because when I remove the file, it balks, and when the file is present, it stops balking. But it keeps saying "Access of undefined property" or other things along the lines of "This thing is empty". My guess is that the syntax is wrong in the area below which I marked with an "ERROR HERE" comment.[code]...
I am trying to trace a fairly large 2d array (many thousands of elements) to copy in some other code. The code obviously takes a while to run but this doesn't matter to me since it's a one time thing. I used to be able to do this no problem in Flash CS5, but now Flash is truncating the text somewhere in the middle so I don't see all of it. Is there a way to disable this?
i have a flash document that contains two wav file in the library with ID name "soundloop1" and "soundloop2". and there is no other stuff except for the following code on the first frame:
_root.mySound1 = new Sound(mc1); _root.mySound1.attachSound("soundloop1"); _root.mySound1.start(0, 50);[code]....
how come the output is 100(and it sounds like 100 too...pretty loud ) ?? what did i do wrong?
Is this even possible? (well, I guess anything is possible) I tried doing it manually, but it would be really cool if there was some way to do it dynamically. Couldn't find anything on the subject.
can I use PHP to create an XML file called AGConfig.xml on a server? AGConfig.xml is a file that is used by 2 different applications there is a config swf and a main app swf...initially you run the config swf which takes in MySQL Login information...and a event name.when you load the config swf all the fields are blank (whether or not the AGConfig.xml exists)...what I want to do is write an XML file on the server.I am wondering if its possible to do this using PHP? What I have found is that you can definitely save it to your local drive.but is it possible to output an XML file on a server? For example.my php file and flash app files are at www.somesite.com/test/ and if i run.[code]
What would be the best way to output a multidimensional array so that later on I could input it (through user input) and it won't be to hard to read it?
I made a button with an instance name 'go', then i made an input text box i named 'amount' (variable) and in the input text i put the number 33. Then i used the trace command in actions to see if i can make connection between them. And it seems to work fine except that a lot of scripting comes with the number in the output box. I'm using actions 2.0 in flash CS4 pro. I've never tried CS4 before and in the old versions this never came up.
This is my Actions(i like doing all in layers to get more organized):
I've just installed CS5 on a new laptop using Windows 7. I was running it before on my Windows Vista machine and CS3 on that same machine before that with no problems.However on this install, the 'Output' window isn't scrolling properly. I commonly use a trace on an enterframe event so I can track exactly what is happening to a variable and when changes occur. The Output window scrolls so it is constantly at the bottom and the most recent trace is visible, except when it gets to about 50 it just gives up and stops scrolling. This obviously isn't very useful because I can no longer see what the trace is saying unless I scroll down manually (and then it is instantly outdated considering a new trace is produced each frame).Anyone know why it won't scroll to the most recent output? It always used to on my other installs.
I have built a little piece of software w/ FMX2004. I have Flash writing all of my desired output to XML. I was wondering is there a way that I can have Flash write this to an XML file and eventually append that file w/o some server side script. I want the software to work on a local computer and not need Internet access. Basically I want it to be able to write to an existing XML doc on the users computer for future use w/ the software.
i got the source from Jerry Jasuta to build a Drawing API, everything works perfectly it draws and saves the images into jpg. I have a little problem, how do i make it load images to the same file, I want to be able to load pictures and draw on them then save them into jpg.Actionscripting in the frame,
I'm making a chat bot for my flash chat.But on the computer that is sending out text to the mysql database... instead of a space it outputs %20 and for a colon %3A.
