View 2 RepliesI'm trying to load data from an external textfile, called "config_flash.txt". It works perfectly if applying the fetched data is done within the same function where the loading is done. However, I would like to use the fetched variables in other parts of the script.
Here's what works:
Actionscript Code:
var varLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(new URLRequest("config_flash.txt"));varLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,

So, basically I want the variables/values defined inside the function to be available anywhere in the script. The error that the second code snippet causes is as follows: "1120: Access of undefined property text1/text2".
I am trying to pass a variable from a text file into a variable in flash and trace it to screen. This is what I have done so far, but its not working. I have created a text file in the same folder as my flash. In the text file I have this:
loadedtext=hello
flash code:
function myFunction(){
trace("Data is loaded");
} var container:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
container.onLoad= myFunction;
container.load("demo1.txt");
trace(container.loadedtext);
Wanted to know if it is possible to make a bool-variable in flash that is set to 'false' by default. It then checks if a file exists at a certain location, and if so, the bool-variable is set to 'true' ?
Something like:
if (c:/myTextfile.txt == true){*do stuff here*;}
What would be the correct code?

I'm using this after my file has preloaded the swf: mcLoader.loadClip("sceneAll_1.swf", holder_mc);
what I want to do is set sceneAll_1.swf inside holder_mc to _x = -500 _y -250 to get it in the center of holder_mc than the default 0,0. I tried the usual technique with attachMovie but it didn't work for this.
I can't figure out how to set a boolean variable to 'true' if someone clicks a checkbox. Help, please. I'm working on AS2, btw.

I am trying to load an external swf (which, come to find out, does not include the background color of the loaded swf) into a movieclip. It seems to be pretty easy. But the movieclip I am loading it into is smaller than the swf I am loading. Is there a way to specify size parameters? In other words, is there a way to scale the swf down so that it fits into the movieclip?
