I'm having troubles activating the HitTest, passing the objects name as a parameter through a global function. Let's say there is the following function on the main timeline:
Code:
_global.fallIntoBasket = function (fallingObject) {
if (_root[fallingObject].hitTest(_x, _root.basket_mc._y+(_root.basket_mc._height/2)-7, true)) {
trace ("teste");
_root[fallingObject]._alpha=0;
}}
I then call this function passing the this._name of the object as a parameter in a onClipEvent (EnterFrame) on each of the falling Objects action box. The whole detection thing doesn't work though... but if I place the hitTest code on each of the object, and change the _root[fallingObject] to this it works. Can I not pass hitTest through a function?
After having recently just discovered the delights of actionscript, I am at a loss to work this out. I'll explain:I have a series of buttons which, when each one is clicked, need to grab their instance name (this._name), strip the first three characters from it and send it to a global function in another mc within the swf.Instead of stripping the characters, I am happy to do:
if (this._name == dot1) {
dotVar = 1;
} else {

I'm trying to do something like this and it doesn't work, but I get no errors.
callback = function(){
//bla bla bla

I am connecting to a web service that I know has a method named getAddy.However, in order to work properly I need to provide this method with a paramater named sessionToken. I'm having difficulty with this, my code currently looks like this:
ActionScript Code:
var WS_URL:String = "http://somedomain?wsdl";
var addy_ws:WebService = new WebService(this.WS_URL);
[code].....
for(var i=1;i<=2;i++)
{
var mc=attachMovie("mc_name","obj"+i,i)
mc._x=200*i;
[code]....
this code places two objects obj1 and obj2 and two buttons button1 and button2
button1 is expected to return _level0.obj1
button2 is expected to return _level0.obj2
Instead they both return _level0.obj2. Obviously, each button is passed the object corresponding to the last "i" in the loop. How shall I sort this out? One of the obvious solution sis to attach each button to its object
mc.mc=mc.attachMovie("button","button"+i,i+10);
but this is not acceptable for some other reason I also have to use this for(var i=1;i<=2;i++) block because in the final application the number of objects will be variable and set by the user at the run time.
I am using the asfunction to call a function and passing a parameter. The problem is in the parameter. I can give a parameter that is over 104 characters. What ever is after that 104th character doesnt pass into the string of the function.
View 4 Replieshow to pass a constant into a function, and then for that function to make use of that constant in its constant form (not the string form).
Some code snippets:
Code:
// make call to play ad, passing a constant value defined in a separate AdType class
// in the AdType class, AdType.PREROLL = "before_content"
[Code].....
I realize this is because the value of AdType.PREROLL resolves to a String value ("before_content"), which is then getting passed into the function as such (a String), but is there a way I can make use of that same constant in the playAd function without having to check its string value directly?

View 4 RepliesI have a custom function with parameter. I'm trying to pass the parameter to the gotoAndPlay as follows. This is where the function is called...
Code:
myButton_btn.onPress = function() {
myFunction("Apply");
}
This is the function...
Code:
myFunction = function (fLabel) {
trace(fLabel);
gotoAndPlay(fLabel);
}
Basically "Apply" is a frame label that I'm trying to send the playhead to. The fLabel paramater traces out properly, but the gotoAndPlay doesn't send the playhead to the appropriate frame label. It sends it to 4 frames before the end. It's really weird. Even if I add frames to the timeline, it still sends it to 4 before the end. I can get it to work perfectly in a "new" flash document, but not in my existing document.
I want to make a hitTest functions that detects if a object is hitting any of several objects. Is there a way to do this? I thought I could do this with a array and for loop. But I think that will use to much CPU when this is loaded every frame. Is there any other way?

I have a movieclip on the stage, and in that clip I have a button that is supposed to turn a global variable from true to false, but the compile tells me:

function closeMSN(event:MouseEvent):void{

I know how to reference the movieclip itself by this, but how do I change the value of a variable on the main stage, from inside the movie clip?

How can I put a variable into a string like this, so the variable is actually the variable and not the strict text?
View 5 Repliesi have 1 PHP page in which i have a Flash animation. this flash swf file, display 2 fields and 1 button.
this php page is called "test.php".
i'm able to send data from Flash to a PHP page, but i would like to send the content of those 2 fields to the "test.php" and display them. however, i do not know how to do it.
i see that it works but i'm not able to display or refresh the PHp page to display the result.
as walkaround i was thinking to collect the webpage address where is executed the flash and to send it to another PHP page. and this 2nd PHP page, will reload the test.php with parameters...
how to get under flash, the address of the actual executed php page ?

The problem I am currently having right now is the inability to send variables loaded from the LoaderSWF to the SWF that has been loaded.
Concretely speaking, I have an embed script on an HTML page that contains several variables in the FlashVars line. The embed script loads a file called loader.swf. Loader.swf's main responsibility is basically take those variables from the flashvar, load the game URL and pass along the rest of the necessary parameters to the game that the loader is loading. However, I've been working out several solutions and none of them worked the way I wanted to.
The embed script is as follows:
Code:
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="550" height="450" id="game-player">
<param name="movie" value="/shockwaves/loader.swf" />
[Code]....
how can I load the game SWF file and send along additional parameters with that request? Is there someway I can punch in variables into the myLoader object?
The code I came up with sends along the authenticity token just fine, however, it is not sending score_url correctly. I'm not sure if that is the correct behavior, but please enlighten me with any insights you may have.
I have also considered trying LocalConnection, but the problem is that I do not have the necessary source code for the games to set up LocalConnection on the receiving end.
Also, the game files are using AS2, while the loader is using AS3. The game files read variables by utilizing _root.score_url, etc.
