My XML code is this
[Code]...
Now I try to load text from one movieclip, which I call the array test[i] from this movieclip, I call the array but my output says undefined Here is the simply code that I have create inside the movieclip, the instance name of dynamic text is txt txt.text = test[i];
I have a swf file that loads other swf files with an XML file, which are populated by external text on the fly.
Everything works perfectly on my computer. And it all worked perfectly on a previous website.
Now, for some reason, when I load these onto my website, the text fields show 'Undefined'.[code]...
I have a dynamic text box on my main time line with an instance name (NOT var name) of MCtxt. My textfiles have the variable of txtMC. I have a movie clip with a little ease bar on it. When the user mouses over the movie clip the ease bar goes to the mouse and, once it comes close to stopping, it triggers some AS to capture a number. Then I have a switch statement that does some stuff depending on the number.
So here is the code I have on that movie clip:
onClipEvent (enterFrame){
if (_global.stopped == true){
//trace(_global.j);
function textLoad(filename) {
loadText = new LoadVars();
[Code] .....
Tracing j returns the correct number and the _root.date.text works just fine. But the text is not loading and the trace on the success returns an undefined. I have tried moving all of the loading text code inside the case but it doesn't work there either. All variable names are correct (quadruple checked, at least) so it's gotta be something with my code.
The desired affect is simple: I have a single button... with each click I want it to load text into a dynamic text field and load a corresponding picture or movieclip.There are only three unique text/image combinations- after its displayed the third, with the next click I want it to just start over. All the text functions perfectly with each click.
The problem is:I use "createEmptyMovieClip" then use the resulting clip as a loader clip.. With the first click I want a movieclip from the library to load, so I use the "attachMovie" method- it displays the first library fine.With the next click I want to load an external swf- so I call the "loadMovie" method of the loaderclip... The external swf loads just fine replacing the first library clip.The third clip is where I have problems... now I want to load another library item into the loaderclip... so I tried using the attachMovie method again but the external swf remains static... then with the next click, I discover the first library item no longer loads and the external swf remains still playing- it's like once it's been loaded into the loaderclip it cant be moved...
So I tried adding the "unloadMovie" method in the code for the third click.. it successfully removed the swf... but the next line of code immediately after the unload statement, doesn't work. The line calls the attachMovie method for the loaderclip... but the library item doesnt load... Oddly enough, with the next click, the first library item now does load as if everything's fine... It seems like you cant use the unloadMovie and attachMovie on the same executing code? if that makes any sense... the basic idea was that if I couldnt get the attachmovie method to replace the loaded external swf, then I would use the unload method to remove it, then have code immediately after, to then execute the attachMovie method... but it still doesnt load the library clip. and I know it's not a type-o, because when I comment out the loadMovie and unloadMovie statements, it loads both the library items perfectly ? The code is below
var increment:Number = 1;
var verbiage1:String = "Hello World1";
var verbiage2:String = "Hello World2";[code].............
im having problems getting some as3 generated (not drawn on stage) movie clips moving across the screen.

i am using flash, .Net, and MySQL and have elements (text fields) posting in flash.Question is, if the table in the data base is not holding the var char how can I set the text field in flash to not show undefined and just be blank?
View 6 RepliesI'd like to load text into my Flash movie to allow a simple 'Noticeboard' inside the flash movie. I've got it working with loadVariablesNum no probs. The trouble is I load the noticeboard into another movieclip. When this happens the text doesnt load even if I declare the variables, do _root etc.
View 5 RepliesI have a dynamic text field that is loading an external .txt file with html coding in it. I can get the text to load and display properly, however I now want to make a custom scrollbar and I have no clue how to even get it to work.I want to make a custom one instead of using the component one. It doesn't even have to be a traditional scrollbar, I would much rather just use an up and down arrows. In the past I've just used buttons and placed AS directly onto them. However I guess you can't do that in AS3 so I'm lost!
Everything I find online involves converting everything to movieclips, however I can't get the dynamic text to load into a movieclip.The code that is loading the text into the text box is: (I don't know if that will help at all but I'm posting it anyways)

Trying to write a script that load dynamic text from a .txt file.
Everything works fine until i tried to put the dynamic text inside a movieclip. There is a error generated which i dont understand.
Below is my code,
var myLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
myLoader.dataFormat=URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
myLoader.load(new URLRequest("data.txt"));

So on my scene is one button and a movie clip.
and so far i have it that when you click the button the movie clip plays and the cookie breaks and the fortune animates out.
my question, is their a way to generate random quotes or "fortunes" every time you play the movie clip. like can their be dynamic text inside the movie clip that randomly picks one of the fortune to display?
I have got a dynamic text field that has had number placed into it by a using voting. What I'm trying to do is get actionscript to check the number (which I have assigned a variable to) and then based on if its less then 2, equal to 2 or more than 2 to get it to load a frame of another movieclip at a certain frame. Sorry not explaining it very well but heres the code:
[Code]....
votesForBatman is the variable I assigned to the final number in the Dynamic text field, with finalvoteresults being the movieclip that I want to load based on the votesForBatman dynamic text field variable. All are in the same movieclip so should not be an issue with_root or anything like that... Is it even possible to get a variable to load a movieclip?
I'm trying to build an RSS feed reader to display inside a swf on a webpage. I need to figure out how to create the RSS feed reader as it's the last bit I need to create for this website.
Here's the code I'm using:
var rssLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var rssURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://teachercenter.scps.k12.fl.us/education/rss.php?sectiondetailid=69411");
rssLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, rssLoaded);
rssLoader.load(rssURL);

I keep getting an error message that reads:
1061: call to a possibly undefined method addItem through a reference with a static text type flash.text.Textfield.
I have this code:
ActionScript Code:
onLoad = function()
{
trace(_root.sliderPosition)
[Code].....
It monitors the sliders position, however, it doesnt track it. It only tracks it if i change it from onLoad to onEnterFrame.
I am attempting to load an XML file to populate values in actionscript, but Flash returns "Access of undefined property error" referring to my line of code:
companyData = xmlResult.company.toString();
From the following:
ActionScript Code:
var xmlFile:String;
xmlFile = "[URL]";
loadXML();
function loadXML():void {
[Code] .....
My XML file is simply a text file with the following line in it:
<company>My Company</company>
I'm guessing this because it is not getting a value from the XML file, but I am not clear as to why that is.
I'm working on a photogallery and I'm using xml to load names, images.the problem is: I want a button to open a new browser window but something is wrong with the variable, I think it is because of the function, but still don't know how to solve it.

var bytes_loaded = holder.boton.getBytesLoaded();

I have a movieclip with a TextArea inside it with the instance name writeUps_txt.The movieclip is added to the stage with actionscript and I want to set the text inside writeUps_txt after the movieclip is added to the stage.Why won't the following work?
infoPages[i].writeUps_txt.text = blurbs[i];
I've checked everything and all of my arrays contain the right objects so everything is kosher there. To add to the problem, this line:
infoPages[i].title_txt.text = locations[i];
does work and the only difference is that title_txt is dynamic text.Is there a difference between how dynamic text and textAreas behave in this regard?
I have a contact us form (I got with a pre built template)However when posting form data to PHP all the fields in the form show as undefined.When I run the file with trace mode on [code]I have ensured my input text has an instance name (ss)I have tried setting a var for ss This allows me to set the data ok but it is still undefined when I try to load it.I have added a keyframe to this frame as this is on frame 4 of a 4 page/frame timeline.
View 1 RepliesI have a flash with some text linked with loadVars, all works perfectly in my computer but shows as "undefined" when i publish the web...both text are actived by buttons so load time is not the matter, and both .txt files are in same directory as the .swf and the .html, and codded as UTF-8[code]...
View 6 RepliesI have borrowed the code from Tiago's web blog. [URL]. I have noticed a few odd things, and have tried to send off to Tiago himself but have not received any response. The first thing I noticed is the code seems to call for the .php file before it can load, so at times it will generate a "undefined" for both the quote and author. The second thing is, which may tie into the first, there seems to be the occasion where the code doesn't load the php file at all. The author and quote will be blank for a duration. And the third question I have is how do I get the text to fade out again after the fade in after an interval.
Code:
import caurina.transitions.Tweener;
var quote:Array = new Array();
var author:Array = new Array();
var totalQuotes:Number;
var rotateTimer:Timer = new Timer(10000, 100); //rotates the quote every 2 seconds for 100 times

I am using xml to populate my dynamic text boxes... however when i load the web page and sometimes it takes a little longer the text boxes say Level 10 MC or undefined or something until the dynamic text gets loaded from the xml... What i am wondering is if there is a way to not display any text until the xml text is loaded into the file.
