I loaded and then trace my _global variables for three screens and they follow me fine until,. then on the the screen i have tiny bit of code:
[Code]...
Could it be the level 99 I use. I tried using 0 and it did not work? I have tried doing this for way too long,
I am making a jigzaw and when all the pieces are put in the right place, another movie clip will be played.All pieces are buttons placed in different movieclips. The movieclips are then placed in scene 1.
In frame 1, I've written
_global.var1=0;
In frame 2, I've put movieclip1, and in movieclip1 I've placed button1, with the following actionscript:
on (press) {
startDrag ("_root.movieclip1");
}[code]..........
However, when the piece is in the right place, and the if-statement has been activated, _global.var1 is still 0 when I trace it in frame2.
[Code]....
I do not understand why i am getting undefined on the last trace.
I can't understand this stuff. A global variable is a variable I can read from anywhere in the document right? if I make a mc and in the action frame I type:
_global.myVar=5;
After that in the action frame of the main timeline I try to trace the variable with this sentence:
trace (_global.myVar);
and I get this error 1120: Access of undefined property _global.It's just me or the help menu or live doc are really useless?The examples I found are not working. The definitions are not really clear etc etc
var dane:Array = new Array();
dane_xml = new XML();
dane_xml.ignoreWhite = true;[code]....
and this last trace gives me undefined while trace(temp) gives me what I want
Is there or is there not possible to access _global variables between domains? on [URL] i have index.html and index.swf. Index.swf then loads main.swf from [URL].In index.swf i have a _global variable that i want main to use. When calling for it all i get is undefined. The only way to access it is if i call for it using _parent or _root.
I have allowed the domains to communicate using
System.security.allowDomain("http://www.Domain1.com");
System.security.allowDomain("http://www.Domain2.com");
I have also put a crossdomain policy file on both servers..cross domain policys since i CAN access the variables and functions using _parent and _root...or is it?
mailObj = new LoadVars();
//send variables to ASP using POST
mailObj.sendAndLoad("sendmail.asp","this", "POST");
trace(mailObj.loaded);
why does this trace give me a undefined value?
Ive been trying to get this piece of code to work
[Code]..
But the trace always comes out to be undefined. Also, I have searched, and the basis for that code is (working) code from one of the results I found when I searched
I'm writing code that takes data from mysql that's processed by a PHP script. It's actually a bit bizarre, at least to me. Anyway, here's some basic AS3 code that's moving toward what I want to do:
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var urlRequest:URLRequest=new URLRequest("receive.php");
urlRequest.method=URLRequestMethod.GET;[code]....
For some reason, the statement "trace(evt.target.data);" produces a whole pile of garbled text before the actual stuff that it's supposed to show Because of problem #1, I've had to include a throwaway variable at the beginning, otherwise the first variable I try to pass into AS3 comes back as undefined. This causes errors when I run my flash movie in the IDE, but when I run it from the browser it doesn't seem to have any effect.But this is the strangest thing of all whenever I make any changes to the database (and subsequently try to load data from different variables), the new variables come back as undefined. For example, let's say that I add another entry to the database, and decide to load students 2, 3, and 4 instead of 1, 2, and 3. When I do that, any new data I've added comes back as undefined, even though when I view the PHP output in my browser, it looks just fine.
And now for the REALLY bizarre part: I'll copy that output, paste it into my PHP script as an echo statement, comment everything else out, and my flash movie runs fine. Even though the output from the PHP script is exactly the same, it gives me errors.
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.
I'm trying to toggle on key press "m" to trace output appear and disappear. ie - user press "m" trace output "appear". And user press "m" again trace output "disappear". Here is my code -

//
var menuVisible:Boolean = false;
onEnterFrame = function(){

I have my setInterval that is set this way:

I was wondering how I might change this to a "local" function instead of "_global". I've been trying, but my syntax is either screwed up or just just plain doesn't work.
Problem: global variables disappear.I am using CS4 but still coding in AS2. I am on a Mac, latest OS.I loaded and then trace my _global variables for three screens and they follow me fine until,.... then on the the screen i have tiny bit of code:[code]Could it be the level 99 I use. I tried using 0 and it did not work?
View 1 RepliesHow can I trace all available Movie Clip variables and functions?
View 5 RepliesI know that flash use the garbage collection metod to delete variables from memory, however into the official guide I see: When you no longer need an event listener, remove it by calling EventDispatcher.removeEventListener(); otherwise, memory problems might result. Objects with registered event listeners are not automatically removed from memory because the garbage collector does not remove objects that still have references. So, it's exist a method to trace the memory status and know if a variable was correctly deleted?

Why is when I trace my "xmldoc" object undefined after it's loaded successfully? I don't get it???
[Code]...
i have this class...
Code:
package com.Advertising {
public class AdvertisingBlock {
public var troot[code]......
I then want swfDisplayer to extend from AdvertisingBlock But because AdvertisingBlock expects stage,troot,constant, I have to use super in swfdisplay?? Does that sound right?? so something like....
Code:
package com.Advertising.Renders {
import com.Advertising.AdvertisingBlock;[code]....
when I trace advertObject from swfdisplay its empty... "undefined" But tracing from advertisingblock obviously shows it as being the object that was written to it.Is it because "supering" basically creates a new instance of advertblock? but one that you can access?What I have been doing in the past is just not extending at all and just creating a new instance of SwfDisplay that doesnt extend.
why doesn't this work?! first trace gives the correct coordinate, second one returns "undefined",
function create()
{
createEmptyMovieClip("holder", this.getNextHighestDepth());
holder.createEmptyMovieClip("mc_1", this.getNextHighestDepth());[code]....
we have this variable from the internet, val(0), in a dynamic text field we can see a digit from this variable. but when we use this variable in actionscript and test it with trace, the variable shows as undefined.how can we make this work without it coming up as undefined??

I'm sure this is a common problem, but due to my lack of flash knowledge I can't logically work through it as I'm used to windows form development, it makes sense to me that the function could access the variables I have defined but they dissapear after the .onLoad event. Does anyone know the common solution to this problem?

How can I know if the value held by myVar is default false, or someone has assigned false to it? Isn't there an undefined state? How can I achieve such a thing?

I am having issues with a global array. I have an actionscript file called MyGlobal.as at the same level as my main FLA:
[Code]....
I am able to trace that first element while trace is called within the function... but if I try to trace that first element outside of the function it is "undefined". Do I need to return the array at the end of the function? I tried that but I cant seem to get it working correctly.
I've been playing with prototype a bit and I've noticed that either it isn't as static as it should be or that some functions are protected from altering, or that in some cases the prototype actually extends a function. For example, I was trying to modifiy the global trace function to output the current time of a trace action, something like this :
Code:trace("lulu"); // output 12:48:17.286 lulu I DID achieve something close to it, but it seems that I haven't actually modified the global trace function, but rather it's "_root" counterpart,
