ActionScript 2.0 :: Passing Variable On Loadmovie?

Apr 18, 2009

I have several movies (movieA, movieB, movieC) that have a button in them that loads another movieb into the same level thus replacing them. My problem is that i need the movieB to start playing from a particular frame depending on which movie, a, b or c loaded it.

I'm trying to find a way of using variables to make it work or maybe just a simple gotoAndPlay function but with no luck. Can you send a variable via loadmovie function?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Trace LoadMovie With URL As Variable

Mar 20, 2006

a) thumbURL is a variable loaded from an XML file. The value is being passed correctly into Flash, as I have traced it and it outputs fine. thumbLoc is a number which increases through a for loop. So thumb0, thumb1, thumb2 etc. are the movie clips I want to load thumbURL into. The thumbURL I'm trying to load is in the format [URL] I have the following code:

ActionScript 2.0 :: LoadMovie Fails When Path Is Passed In Variable

Mar 14, 2009

Oddly if I use a quoted string, like

loadMovie( "http://www.miniclip.com/games/cube-buster/en/cubebuster.swf" , 1);

it works fine

But if I pass in a variable:

var fullpath:String = "http://www.miniclip.com/games/cube-buster/en/cubebuster.swf"
loadMovie( fullpath , 1);

it fails ???

Can't find anyone else's comments on such an issue.

Using flash 8, as2 on Mac osx

The example above remote domain example works fine within flash IDE

My actual application using a relative path to a sub directory, for a little obfuscation.

Basically this script works just fine and loads the appropriate movie. The transistion exit frame also works correctly.

ActionScript 2.0 :: LoadMovie + OnClipEvent(load) - Attaching Variable Number Of MCs Dynamically(not In The Library)

Mar 16, 2006

taken from this link:

[Code]....

My problem: I am attaching variable number of MCs dynamically(not in the library), and i have to do so using flash6 or older. How can i use then loadMovie+onClipEvent handler to invoke something, if i am attaching MCs dynamically, and onClipEvent works only on MCs attached on the Stage(actions "on" those mcs, not "inside" them). Probably using classes. Any other option? and if not, can anybody guide me through assigning such class to such mc? EDIT: Ok, i also have done following:

[Code]....

and although the movieClip IS in library, and it DOES have MovieClip class assigned, onData event handler is NOT triggered and nothing is traced. Can the reason be "attachMovie" function?

EDIT2: aha. well, again it happened that attachMovie's methods are not yet initialized, so it was not yet "the proper time to assign" handler onData on those MCs. [only sen knows why ]. So that even trace(mc.stop()); at this point traces undefined, where it should trace [type Function], since stop is MovieClip's class method. Stupidstupidstupid.. relax...

f you know PHP...then you know that you can create a string variable...and then use the value of that variable to declare another variable. like this:

PHP Code:

<?php$foo = "haha";$i{$foo} = "success";print $i{haha};?>

and it would display "success"...or like this:

PHP Code:

<?php$foo = "haha";$$foo = "success";print $haha;?>

LoadMovie And Preloader - CS3?

Jul 23, 2009

I am really stuck with a loadmovie action that I cannot find the solution to. I have a website that I had to split up as the loading time was too long. I have used a loadMovie function and it loads the external movie but the problem is that the external movie requiring a little bit of time to load I want a preloader to come first.

I have attached screenshots of this (wssmain liks to the arch_mc1) . The problem is that the movie loads but the preloader doesn't play. Anybody has any ideas why?

The first screenshot shows the wssmain whereas the second (preloader2) shows the arch_mc1. If the fla files are required I will make them available for download.

LoadMovie Mc Keeps Unloading

May 2, 2011

I load my external image into emptymc which is inside mc_container:loadMovie("myimage.jpg", mc_container.emptymc); //placed on main timeline.This works fine. However when I go to a different frame within mc_container(specifically a frame without an instance of "emptymc") emptymc gets unloaded. As soon as I go back to a frame containing "emptymc" it no longer has the jpg.Is there a way I can keep the jpg loaded in emptymc without having to load it again?

IDE :: LoadMovie Is Being Resized?

Jan 30, 2009

I am working on my first flash website and have been working on loadMovie & unloadMovie. The commands have been working for me and it will load & unload the external .swf in a contentHolderMC. The problem that I am encountering is the loaded .swf width is correct but the height is being reduced, I would guess to about 75%. Is there a way to maintain the external .swf's size? Even if I need to put the code into the external .swf.

I have tried creating a mask inside the contentHolderMC to match the size of the external .swf. When I have looked around for clues to the resizing, I am finding tutorials on how to resize the external .swf into a smaller Movie Clip. That's not what I am trying to do.

I also don't want load waits between each level.Is there some way to do all my loadMovie's at the start, loading them into some place where they wont actually be on the stage, and then calling them out one by one as you play each level of the game?

ActionScript 3.0 :: LoadMovie From Php Data

Jul 20, 2010

I'm not much of a flash programmer, and am a bit lost. What I want to do is the following. I'll have a SWF with two layers, which is being called from a PHP page on my site. The top layer is just an invisible button, and I'd like it to link to a URL that I provide from the PHP page. The bottom layer I would like to load a separate SWF file, whose path I can also provide from the PHP page. I have the URL and the SWF path working just fine in PHP, but I don't know how to pass those values to flash, or how to get loadMovie to work like I want it. Can anyone provide some guidance?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Preloader For LoadMovie?

Jun 4, 2011

First things first, please don't recommend I change to AS3 for this. I know, but It's far too late for that and not my project to be dictating..So I'm loading some external swfs in with the loadMovie command, in the normal manner with a button:

Code:
on (release) {
loadMovie("swfs/example-1.swf", _root.container);
}

But what I need, is to wedge a preloader in there somehow. As the swfs are around 1mb each.I'm already using the following as a preloader for the main file, so an adaptation of it would be very welcome so I can co-ordinate the graphics.With this on frame 1:

Code:
var amountLoaded:Number = _root.getBytesLoaded() / _root.getBytesTotal();
preloaderText.text = Math.round(amountLoaded * 100) + "%";
And this on frame 2:[code].....
