ActionScript 2.0 :: Access A Variable In Html / Swf Parameters?
Aug 8, 2008
So I'm trying to do something like this....<param name="movie" value="comp.swf?rootDomain=3" />where I have a variable called 'rootDomain' in my html, as a parameter.I want to be able to call that from my flash, but whenever I try it comes up as undefined.I'm using this code in my flash..
on(release){getURL (_root.rootDomain + '/news/'), "_self"
}
I don't know if I'm just wrong, if it's syntax or what, but how do I reference that variable in the html with my code?

I've created a very simple video player that I want to use with many different FLV files on my site. Rather than packaging SWF files with each FLV, I'd like to just design one SWF file and have the corresponding HTML file pass the URL of the FLV as a parameter to the SWF. I've read a lot about passing in parameters from HTML to SWF using AS3, and it seems pretty straightforward. Here's an example of the code I created using Flash CS3 and ActionScript 3.0:
this.loaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,loaderComplete);
function loaderComplete(evt:Event):void {
//traceText.text = "Loaded";
[Code]....
Note that I'm using the variable "userName" to pass the parameter. Eventually I'd use a variable like "movieURL" to convey the actual URL of the FLV file. In any case, when I run the code, I get ... nothing! Nothing but a blank text box. Both the HTML and SWF files are on my local machine.
If I uncomment the "//traceText.text = Loaded" line, the text box says "Loaded", which would indicate that the event listener is functioning properly.

I am using fancybox within a html page and I am calling an flv file via a swf file, plays fine locally and works via the web, the problem is that I need to link all of my assets with remote urls as I need to host the html elsewhere. So html hosted on server A and assets on server B. So my thoughts turn to adding the flash parameter to the query.fancybox-1.3.4.pack.js file and this is where I get stuck.url...I've located the object tag in the query.fancybox-1.3.4.pack.js file I just need to add the allowScriptAccess parameter.[code]

I've recently been having a few problems generally relating to retriving URL information. I've overcome most of these errors at the point of posting this thread, however one still eludes me:
ActionScript Code:
trace(loaderInfo.parameters.variable)
Within the application, the parameter is being refered to in an if statement.
In all tests, including those on a web server, this code returns an "undefined" value. The only time at which I can get the code to work is when the swf is by itself, as soon as it is embedded into a HTML or other page it appears that the parameters cannot be picked up from the URL.
The URL could be example.com/app/?variable=123. The variable would be returned as "123", however it is not picked up.

No matter whether you embed a flash video using Flash Satay, swfobject, or some other method, there are a number of parameters that can be passed to the embedded video. I'd like this to be a community wiki for the following questions: What parameters can be used to embed a flash video? How can the parameters be accessed via ActionScript?

ActionScript Code:
for (var v = 0; v <= 10; v++) {
var flv = attachMovie("FLVPlayback", "my_FLVPlybk" + v, v+1, {width:20, height:20, x:100, y:20});
}
With this code I have created 10 flvplayback components and inserted in the screen. How to access to each of this components i have created and change parameters like pause() them stop() play() add contentPath etc., I need that only after the loop is finished not while the loop is still on. Something like
findComponent("my_FLVPlybk1").stop();

var params = {};

I have a .swf file that is not looping although I have added the parameter to do so. It plays just the once, and at the end of the video it stops instead of looping.
<div id="video">
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="211" height="316" id="FLVPlayer" style="visibility: visible; ">

It's like this: I got this .swf which takes a variable in the url, like: myswf.swf?id=1. I put it on my server and I embed it in a html-file on my server and it works fine. The swf takes the parameter(id) and it uses it correctly. THOUGH.. When I let some other person embed it in a html-file on their own server (you know, like you do with Youtube videos) it seems as if the swf doesn't get the parameter. If I run the html-file locally on my computer and links the <embed> tag to thesite.com/myswf.swf?id=1 it doesn't work neither, though if I link it to the local swf in the same folder it works fine.

Is there a way to look at each variable passed into the paramaters of a function. For example, taken the given code.
Code:
package {import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Shape;
public class Dot extends MovieClip {
color:uint;
dotSize:uint;
[Code] .....
So in this instance it would loop through color, dotSize, doughnutSize, and doughnutHoleSize and set the paramaters of the class to be the same value.
Example for each loop:
Code:
for (var key:String in object){
trace(key + ": " + object[key]); // object[key] is value
}
So, is this possible?

I know this should be very simple, but in following the examples I can find on passing parameters from HTML to my Flash App I have not been successful. I would like to find a relatively current example using AS3, Flash CS4. I need to pass the url of an XML file off to the flash app so that it can go pick up instructions on what it is supposed to be playing. We want to do it this way because we don't control the web site so we can't just leave the XML file on the server and maintain it as needed.

I have a project where I need to keep track of where the user is at a certain point of a flash training orientation.
Flash application needs to accept a parameter which contains a unique ID for the user running the flash application. This ID needs to be stored throughout the session of the flash application, from page to page. Once a user travels from page-X to page-X in the Flash, the next button needs to call an aspx page in order to send that ID and the page position so the aspx can write to an XML file this information. If the user does not finish the flash, once they return, the aspx needs to read the correct XML file and send 2 parameters to the flash application. These 2 parameters will be the user's ID and the page the user was on the flash can load the correct page. Instead of passing 2 parameters so the flash can dynamically load the correct section, the aspx can call the correct flash file (i.e. flash_file2.swf) but still pass the user's ID as a parameter.

I am sending variables from my html page:
Code:
<param name="FlashVars" value="nameCheck=boo&imageCheck=image01.jpg">
...in the parameters section of the flash object code.
I know that to extract the info I need to basically use:
Code:
var paramObj:Object = LoaderInfo(this.root.loaderInfo).parameters;
...in my as3 code but I am wondering what would be the syntax to return a text field containing the sent variable 'boo' and fill an image area with the file name from the variable 'imageCheck'?

is it possible to create custom event with variable arguments count? I ask this because currently I use anonymous functions on events with variable parameters count to pass arguments to appropriate function, i.e:
Code:
addEventListener( MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, function(evt:MouseEvent):void{mTBGp( pX, pY, l_w, l_h, isDone )}, false, 0, false );
addEventListener( MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, function(evt:MouseEvent):void{mTBGe( pX, pY, l_w, l_h )}, false, 0, false );
and I don't want to do that because of weakReference.
1. From what I know if I set weakReference to true with anonymous function on in addEventListener GarbageCollector will delete them (and indeed I can see that my code stops to work on random, due to GC "kickin in")
2. When i delete my Object with addEventListener( weakReference = false ) the memory used by addEventListener is not freed ( unconfirmed, please elaborate on that subject also)That's why, from My point of view, usage of custom event is best, but unfortunately I use many addEventListeners with variable parameters count so (in above example 2 listeners. one 5 arg, second 4 arg) is there a way to do something like this? To write event that will take x parameters of any type?

I have a button in a movie that I want to set a global variable to a new value when clicked. I want it to access a parameter of a movie clip that this same button loads onto the movie for the new global variable value. I have the final line under this button's onrelease script with something like this:
globalvariable1 = movieclip.parameter;
Everything is on level 0 and I've tried prefixing everything with _root. but it didn't make a difference, the global variable still wasn't changed. I'm a newbie so don't laugh if this is a really dumb question!
