ActionScript 2.0 :: Using A Variable To Avoid Repeating Code Over And Over?
Apr 8, 2009
I've been trying all morning to figure this out but I'm really not the best when it comes to actionscript. I've looked around and I just simply don't have a clue how to adopt other code to fit my own .I have the following code
Code:
function reActivateTopMenu() {
_root.top_nav.btn1.gotoAndStop(1);
_root.top_nav.btn1.enabled = true;[code]....
I just can't figure out the exact way of writing the code in "flash" talk and not "dave" talk!

I have the following code for the button over/out effect. It is nice but instead of writing the same code for function for each button (I have 15 buttons), how to shorted the code by modifying it?
Code:
Button1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, navOver);
Button1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, navOut);
function navOver(e:MouseEvent):void {

I have a movieclip called myButton,inside of myButton i have a textfield called buttonLabel. I have 16 instances of myButton placed on the stage with instancenames myButton1,myButton2, etc.I want the textfield inside of each button to display the same number as the one in their instance name. ie myButton1.buttonLabel.text = "1".instead of repeating that line of code 16 times, is there a way i can use a loop? something like
for (var i:int = 1; i < 17; i++)
{
myButton(i).buttonLabel.text = i
}

how to use if/else and setInterval statements on the cross fade slideshow. I am trying to edit the code to have the xml slideshow loop back to the first image and play continuously. I am ok following existing code, not great at writing/editing my own. I thought I needed to work within the nextImage function, and add a slideshow (); function. I haven't been able to get it right. Here is the code minus the xml loading part:

I'm trying to repeat a function that basically will attachmovie on a "tileset", an image depending on the parameter. It's called AddID(i), and currently there's only 2 valid options, 0 and 1, images showing, X and O. There's a Button, and theres an array and a function that shows an image of the tile depending on its ID value loaded from the array.
My problem is: Everything works just great as if you repeat the function by clicking again, but... When repeating the function by code, all the tiles will have the Image of the last tile added.

I want to load an XML file and access one node value. I decided to store it in a variable(var addedNumber).
The problem is I want to access this variable in a new function (loadURL)"outside" of the scope. Is there a clearer way to do this instead of using nested function?
PHP Code:
var XMLLoader:URLLoader;
var XMLPath:URLRequest;
var XMLDoc:XMLDocument = new XMLDocument();

I want to have several buttons however load a different xml file, not just use one file. Would this mean I would have to recreate the above code for every button, or is there anyway I could reuse it?

I'm trying to pass the contents of variable playnoyes to the long line of code below to decide whether or not to autoplay the flash movie, but doing it as I have below, the resultant line of code has the variable in quotes and therefore the code doesn't execute it as expected. My question is, how can I pass the variable so that the resulting line of code doesn't have the quotes around the variable value.
var playnoyes='true';
var testtext = "<script type='text/javascript'>AC_FL_RunContent ('codebase','http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.[code]....

I was wondering how you can make variable code within code, for example, normally, you can use this["blabla"+variable]; to make the code say blablavariable. But now i want to make new variables by using this code, within a for loop [using teller1 as the increasing value] this["var ringsegment_mc:Ring_"+teller1+"=new [Ring_"+teller1+"]()"]; which i basically want to have say:var ringsegment_mc:Ring_1=new Ring_1();
but this doesnt work, it doesnt make a variable called ringsegment_mc. why I want to do this, is because i need to make an add child which makes 16 parts, from 16 different movieclips.

Well basically what I want to do is have my code figure out that a variable has changed value and then call a function to store that value in my class.I have a component with a text box in it that displays a value gotten from either typing in the box or moving a slider. I then need the last value (where they stop sliding or typing) to be stored in my class

Flash CS3, AS 2.0 so I have an XML file containing the number 72, and this script:
Code:
var imageNumber = new XML();
imageNumber.load("imageNumber.xml");
Then later, this script:
[Code]...
The problem is, the variable doesn't carry into my second bit of code. I can add a button and use trace to display the correct variable in the output box, so I know it's getting into Flash. The problem is that it's not applying itself to the second piece of script. Triple checked that the code with by putting in the number manually and using a normal variable, only when I use the XML file as a variable does it refuse to work. I'm very new to Flash so sorry if I've left any important information out, but can anybody shed some light on this?

I am having a big problem with some drag and drop code I am trying to write. Basically I have two lists of draggable components, the components and their symbols. The user has to drag the correct component with its matching symbol on drop area which are labelled.When the user gets the right component in the right drop point it has a counter which keeps track of which single part is in the right place.I am having trouble in making a counter which increases when two matching components are placed correctly and to decrease when either of the components are taken out of their correct place...my problem is that it will decrease when a components is just picked up and dropped back into the correct place.If anyone understands my problem and can have a look at the code below Code fr one drag object (in this case a off switch)
Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
this.dropped = 0;

Is it possible to add code (...html or php?) to an html link (i.e the link will be featured in an html website) that passes a variable into the flash site it links to (just something simple like '_root.pageChoice = "home3" '? So when the site opens the swf turns to a certain page?This will be necessary as there will be links to the site from different html sites and each will need to see a different version of a certain page.

By the way I'm still really new to Flash and AS3.I'm writing this quiz that gets questions and answers from an xml file in the same directory and displays the question in a TextArea, the available answers in a list, and additional text in another text area.Most of it was working the way I wanted and I noticed the apostrophes weren't coming through the XML so I thought I'd try escaping it with a not thinking. I did a publish preview and saw that my list loop became infinite populating my answer list. I took the out and still had the same problem. I backed out as far as I could in the AS3 and couldn't find anything that would cause it to continually loop like that. I traced a statement at the beginning of the script and realized it was actually looping the whole app not just an event or function. I'll reply back with the code.

I have a simple mp3 player, with PLAY PAUSE PREVIOUS and NEXT buttons. the problem i have is if you click the play button more than once, the mp3 clip will start to play itself as many times as you clicked. this sounds really bad..u could have the clip playing over itself 5 times.
Code:
if(play button is clicked ONCE){
(deactivate play button until next song);
}
in other words, only one PLAY-button-CLICK allowed per song...
