ActionScript 2.0 :: Pass Variables Between Movies?
May 29, 2002
I'm trying to do a demo with a fastforward button and a rewind button that will go to the next scene and previous scene...however, due to the format that my predecessor created used...I'm stuck with alot of scenes. The navbar (ff and rewind buttons) is in a .swf file called main. The actual demo is in demo3.swf. I created a loader scene to redirect to the correct scene (when ff and rewind are hit), how to pass the variables needed from the main movie. What would be the correct syntax or steps?

is it possible to pass variables between flash movies...
i.e. if you had 2 (or more) seperate flash movies in an HTML page, can you control one with the other?

I have a main movie, and use the following code to call an external movie:
on (release) {
loadMovie ("http:url....);
}
Fine I've no problems with this, however once I am in portfolio.swf I want to be able to call an ASP file when I click on a button I.e if I click button 1, I get files records for ID 1 and if I click button 2, I get file record for ID 2. The button click happens in the main movie, have I can pass a variable in between seperate movies?

I have been receiving great help for the past few days on many different things, and now I have another issue. I am creating a form in an SWF that pops up in a window over my main site. Is there a way to pass the information that the user submits in that form to my main movie? Or will I have to embed the form movie into my main movie? Is there a tutorial dealing with this? Also, since I'm asking, is there a way to save information to a text file using ActionScript or Flash, or whatever? I was thinking the other thing I could do would be to save the information in a text file, then dynamically load it in a text box on the main site.

I am loading various movies into a "shell"movie as and when they are needed using loadMovie... However I have one movie which I am loading in to the shell "holder" movie which is supposed to load in variables from a php file. Now when this swf file is run in the browser outside of the shell, it loads in all the variables just fine. The loadVariablesNum command loads into "0" the root timeline, but when I run the shell and navigate to the swf file, none of the variables appear.I am guessing I need to load the variables into 'this' movie, but I have tried that by using the complete path...
_root.holder_mc.loadVariablesNum("scorevars.php"," post");
But this doens't pick up the vars. My problem is I am not fully understanding the relationship between swf's loaded into each other and how the timelines interact...

I'm having a bit of a problem with this. I have a class- MiniMap which extends the MovieClip class.This class has a variable which is itself a movieClip, this movieClip is a small window which can be moved around on the map to select which portion of the miniMap will be shown in the bigger map.
How do I refer back a events on the class variables to effect the host class?

I have two movies: m1 and m2. In m1 I set a variable to variable="yes". Now, I want m2 to read the variable and do an action depended on the variable (see the example below).
This is the AS in m1:
on (release) {
docufield = "background.txt";
}
And this is the AS in m2:
this.loadVariables(docufield);

I have a movie which is made up:
Level0= my interface layout with buttons
Level1= the different sections of the site, are loaded into this level (eg. home.swf, aboutus.swf etc.)
Because each of these sections has both an 'in' and 'out' transition, i want to use variables (on the buttons) to control these external movies that are loaded into the main movie (im even starting to confuse myself
basically in a nutshell... can you use buttons which control a movie ,which has been loaded at another layer, using variables....

I'm new on AS3, I'll try to explain what my project consists: Well, There is a main.fla and It loads external movies triggered by button items. The content animation sequence introduction starts with tweenLite and fills the stage with elements from Library (movieClips, buttons) and some sprites. I've built the intro animation through actionscript. Perhaps I'll need to explain how I did it the TweenLite structure, but the code lines are too long
The transitions / navigation:
Each button before load the external movie has a respective animation that removes the other buttons from the stage. It triggers an "outro" animation and then loads the External Swf.
First:
Each external Swfs contains a removeChild action in a MovieClip that CLOSES and removes the movie.. Like a "pop up" with a close action. After closed It should replay the intro animation and replace the buttons in the stage but it's not happening because I don't know how to communicate between different timelines / external movies.

I am trying to load an AS2 swf from an AS3 swf. The AS2 swf which was written long back, expects parameters from the timeline(_root). These were passed to it before from HTML using flashvars. Now I am trying to get rid of the HTML pages, by directly loading the AS2 swf from the AS3 swf. However, when I try to load the AS2 swf using the Loader class, the swf loads fine, but the parameters are not getting passed on.
I tried to add the query string to the url parameter I used in the URL request used for the Loader, but that did not work.(Adding URL variables as data to URLRequest did not work either.)

I want to have a button and when clicked, it does the equivelent of going to this php address and executes the php, as it would by typing into address bar. Simply activates php script with variables.
Code:
