ActionScript 2.0 :: Passing Flashvars To A Loaded Swf In A Target_mc?
Dec 25, 2008
I have a flash mp3 player that loads its info from an xml file and it works great. Im trying to load this same player onto another website and have changed the domains, xml info, etc to load new songs. I want to have this swf be integrated into a larger site and not just loaded at the bottom of an html page. Heres the player working: [URL] On the new site, I have a target movieclip named mp3player and is the same dimensions as the loaded swf is supposed to be. On frame 1, I have a loadmovie() and then a loadVariables() and I have copied/pasted the flashvars from the working html page into the loadVariables(). The site is loading the swf, but not seeing the flashvars. The swf is loading way zoomed in on the image that is supposed to be 120 120

My swf requires the path to an xml file in order to run. Currently this is passed in from html as a FlashVar using swfobject.But - in certain situations, the swf will be loaded by another swf. How do I pass in FlashVars using a Loader?

I can call this external swf when i use loadmovie on a button function
Actionscript Code:
ytLoadBtn.onRelease = function(){System.security.allowDomain("http://www.reverbnation.com");videoLoader.loadMovie("http://cache.reverbnation.com/widgets/swf/40/pro_widget.swf"); };
However i can't seem to pass the flashvars as variables within the url string or as loadvariables

I just saw a flv player that was done in AS2.I wanted to know whether it's possible or not and how I could pass the needed flashvars, params and attributes to the flv player (swf file) once I load this flv player in a movie clip with the method loadclip.

I used almost two weeks to search the Web how to pass some variable/parameter/Flashvar from one swf to another.I have a main swf file, let's call it "main.swf" and here in AS3 I'll call "comonent.swf" with some parameters.All this is easy if I call the component.swf from HTML, but I have to call it from another swf file.[code]My problem is that this doesn't work of course - the method in "getSwfParam" is only tuned to get the parameters if it's coming from the URL string from the HTML page. I can't use "component.swf?age=23" in my call from the main.swf, because it'll confuse AS3 to think that the wole string.IS THE flash file.I tried localconnection and sharedobject too, but I just can't get the sender and receiver part to work together.I only need to send some short codes to my component.swf to tell what it should do.Now I begin to question if it is possible it was in AS2, but now the _root is gone and everything got so d.

We are using a flash video player. In that we are passing an xml URL as Flashvars which contains the path of the flv video to be played in that player. This works fine when we are uploading to the test server. But we have a development sever which is accessed by an ip address. Whenever any ip address xml URL is sent to the flash, it is not playing the video.When we use domain_name/video_player it is working fine and xml file is loadingBut when we use ip_address_of_domain/video_player, XML is not loading Seems to be really strange

I'm unclear on the proper format for passing a QueryString Value using FlashVars, this is what I'm trying <param name="FlashVars" value="part=<%= Request.QueryString["part"] %>" /> but this causes a parse/encode error and the swf doesnt load, same if I use single quotes ie <param name="FlashVars" value="part=<%= Request.QueryString['part'] %>" />

I needed to write a very small SWF that would load a second SWF, passing all FlashVars to it. In searching for how to do this, I found bits and pieces, but nothing complete. So, in case this is useful for someone else:
ActionScript Code:
public class MyPlayerLoader extends Sprite
{
/**
[Code].....
Basically, this packages up all passed in FlashVars into a URL and loads it. There is one FlashVars that isn't passed, and is identified by SWF_TO_LOAD_PROPERTY. If in the FlashVars, that identifies the SWF to load. If not present, DEFAULT_SWF_TO_LOAD is used instead.

So I'm building a Flash/HTML hybrid website that uses a Flash navigation. Within the index.html file there is an Iframe that loads the different pages of content. I used this method so the whole page didn't have to refresh only the content being loaded.
Well I have some buttons on the inner pages that will redirect to other inner pages. The problem with this is the Flash navigation is still stuck on the old page. The Flash nav says you're on the home page while the content being displayed is the about page. Get it?
I've looked into some articles on using FlashVars but it doesn't really apply to my site because of the Iframe.

I am in the process of building a site for an Architect... Jamie Fobert Architects (projects) I am useing transitions between the projects and am loading details/text and images externally through flashvars, php and a mySQL database. Within my transitions I have a a preloader on the forst 2 frames the code is as follows (taken from a Voetsjoeba tutorial):
[Code]....
This works pretty well if the content is within the .swf, but when it is loaded externally it doesnt preload it at all. Does anyone know how I can adapt/improve this preloader? or somehow ensure that all the content being loaded externally is loaded before the transition plays?

I want to know which is more effective to use in terms of passing values to flashvars.I have a dynamically created XML on the fly that will be assigned to a flashvar.I am planning to assign a whole xmldoc to the flashvar..it basically includes all the tags as in the whole xmlobject..and then i'll use this var to be able to display it on a carousel like image gallery.. Basically the content is all dynamic.Is it more preferrable to accept the XML PATH or the whole XML DOCUMENT for the flashvars?

I am working on creating a Flash menu that, depending on the page calling the swf file, will show a specific frame just for that page. It works almost perfectly except for the very first time you access the swf during a given browser session. If you refresh the browser window, it will start working just fine after that as long as you stay in that same window.Incidentally, this is only for IE. It won't work at all in Firefox. It pulls the first set of frames, which is a template menu for one of the departments.The HTML code providing the variables:

I hope someone can help me with my dilemma. I have built a video player in ActionScript 3.0 which consists of a FLA file which has the video player on it and a separate AS file that contains all my ActionScript 3.0 code for the video player. I have moves (FLV & MP4 files) stored on my Flash Media Server 3.0 server. If I hard code the name of the movie in the AS file and publish the FLA file, it creates an SWF file that will actually play the movie on the FMS3 server. That lets me know the video player works.

I'm trying to do a Christmas Calendar in Flash. I'm using buttons for the 24 days, that I want to activate depending on the date. Since I can't count on clientcomputers having the correct date set I want to use the date from the server and pass it into Flash. Now I found out on the Macromedia website, that you can use FlashVars as a ActiveX Parameter to pass values into Flash. So far so good. How do i address the variable in Flash then? Using a syntax like this PHPode:FlashVars="datum=DAY_OF_MONTH" //DAY_OF_MONTH holds the date I get from the serverin my html file, that's calling the .swf I should be able to simply use datum as a variable in Flash. However that doesn't seem to work

what the proper syntax is for passing flashvars thru Shadowbox to the JWPlayer (wanting to reskin it).
I have no problem doing this in conjunction with swfObject or via an embed.
Unfortuanitly my posts on the Shadowbox forums have gone unanswered. Their docs discuss this only in principle - no details provided for this specific need.
There are multiple posts on their forums and the developer mentions the ability to do this but provides no practical example showing how it's done with multiple variables and multiple parameters.
If using js to embed it would look like:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
var s1 = new SWFObject("/scripts/shadowbox-build-3.0b/libraries/mediaplayer/player.swf","ply", "580","326", "9","#F3F3F3");
s1.addParam("allowfullscreen","true");

I am trying to pass FlashVars into public class EventDispatcher to set the path to data.xml. I need it because the name and path of the xml file will be dynamically created. I need to use Flashvar in order to access the correct path.I was able to pass Flashvar from html page on timeline this way:
Actionscript Code:
var Flashvars:String = LoaderInfo(stage.loaderInfo).parameters.xmlfile;
Then, I was able to use it with new UrlRequest;
Actionscript Code:
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(Flashvars);
This method works really good, but this solution only works on timeline.I need to implement this technique in the class. Before I setup a static var for with the path to xml file. I'd like to be able to get FlashVar withing this class and assign this string to 'public static var DATA_XML_URL:String' I have there. This way I can pass Flashwar to the project I already have.
Actionscript Code:
import flash.events.Event; import flash.events.EventDispatcher; import flash.display.Sprite; import flash.display.LoaderInfo; import flash.display.MovieClip; import flash.display.Stage;public class ConfigManager extends EventDispatcher {

I'm modifying someone's old AS 2 Flash application and I need to pass numeric data in as a string OR have a properly formatted USD currency string in the end.
Currently, I might pass something like Data1=$34,000.00&Data2=$12,344.18&etc...
in via FlashVars. Assuming I show Data1 in a dynamic input field, I'd get something like "$34,0"
I'm not too concerned whether this is a super clean, proper solution or a functional hack-like solution with this application. It's needed, but only for a short time.

Game.swf, which needs to access FlashVars from Game.html... easily done withLoaderInfo(this.root.loaderInfo).parameters;It turns out that Game.swf is heavy enough to require a preloader. The onlyeffective way of doing that in AS3 is to loadGame.swf intoPreloader.swf, which is embedded in Preloader.html.The question is, where do the FlashVars go (in Preloader.html??), and how can Game.swf access those variables? I've tried
LoaderInfo(this.parent.loaderInfo).parameters;
//and
LoaderInfo(this.root.parent.loaderInfo).parameters;

I have an AS3 swf which loads and external AS2 swf. Inside the AS2 swf i have the following code which fetches the flashvars passed through html.
flashpar.text = "Params: " + _level0.name;
When i run the AS2 SWF independently passing the param through HTML. It works fine.But when i load the AS2 swf inside AS3 swf. It is not able to fetch the flashvars, which is strange cz if i load the AS2 SWF inside another AS2 swf it works fine. how should i fetch the flashvars inside the loaded AS2 SWF.
