my xml file is as such:
Code:
<menu txt="THIS ITEM FIRES A FUNCTION IN FLASH" txtcolor="0xFFFFFF" menuaction="myFUNCTION" />
myFUNCTION is a function inside of flash, how can i possibly trigger this?
i did some searches but i can't find the sollution:
i read upon asfunction:myFUNCTION, but it simply doesn't work
this is my relevant flash code
Code:
myFUNCTION = function()
{
trace ("am i called?");
[Code]....
In short: how can i call a function in another .as file? Is there a way to make header files or forward declarations in AS3?

View 1 RepliesThe Situation: I have a main.as that has a function that is worth 400 lines.
What I want to happen: I want that function to be loaded from another .as file so that my main.as does not look too long. Also, I have a lot of variables that was instantiated on my main.as that is called on that 400 line function.
The Question: How do I do this?
My client says make this, and use XML so it's dynamic and easy to update:A text box with scroller holding news headlines, and a more link that will open an MC with the entire news article. Like:11/28/05 - X-Raided Celebrates 3 Years in Prison Folsom Correctional facility officers report that imprisoned rap artist X-Raided threw a party in his cell (with his cellmate) to celebrate his third anniversary in prison. Officials state.[code]
how to make that "more" link in the XML tell flash to run a specific function.I already have a function that makes whatever mc I want visible and I can write some code to fill in dynamic text boxes with the proper nodeData.But what would that "href=" have to be in the XML in order to call that function inside of flash. Is there a way you can turn XML data into executable commands?

How can a function in main timeline be called from class file?
View 4 RepliesI'm loading from my main page an external js file, with a function.
I have a flash file in the main page invoking the javascript function.
Everything worked very well until when the javascript code was in the main file, but when I moved javascript to an external file the function seems not called anymore.
So... there is no way to move the javascript code to an external file ? Or any other solution ?

those functions need to be on the main timeline because they removeChild() of the class

I'm trying to use ExternalInterface.Call to call a JavaScript function to launch a lightbox window. So far I have this:
AS3:
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("launchLB", "" + aUrl + "");
JavaScript:
function launchLB(url) {
alert(url);
[Code]....
I get the alert but I can't get the lightbox window to display. When my as code makes the ExternalInterface call I get what looks like a page refresh and a blank browser window.
I have an enterFrame action that I use on a graphic:
[Code]....
Because I want to use the above code more than a few times, I tried to make it a function.
[Code]....
But for some reason the function call does not work when I call it via an action on a graphic where initially the code worked when it was explicitly written and not called as a function.
Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
fadeOut();
}
why this is not working.I have an application with a new class I just created. The class loads, but will not call it's own internal function.
package com.parkerandkent.components.classic.photogallery {
import caurina.transitions.Tweener;
import flash.display.MovieClip;[code]....
"Test 2" will not fire here.And I get this error message:
CallTag.as , Line 10 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method init.
I need to get a javascript var in my Flash application. I like to be able to just set a variable in the javascript (client constraints) rather than define a function.
Can this be done? I am trying to use the ExternalInterface.call()
AS:
ExternalInterface.call("function(){return window.someVar}", null);
JS:
var someVar = "Test";
This does not work and I suspect it is because the ExternalInterface.call() does not like the anonymous function.
I have a function defined in JavaScript like so:
function fadeBack() {
alert("fadeBack called");
};
I call that function from my Flash file like so:
import flash.external.*;
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("fadeBack");
This works in both Safari and Chrome, but for some reason Firefox won't ever call the function. Still, I can't figure this out. How can I fix it?
Does anyone know if there is a way to call a dispatchEvent call from inside of a static function?
