I have this code here to count down every 10 seconds and load an external random movie clip. It works once, but I would like to have it start the timer again-
code:
displayTime = 5;
function countDown() {
displayTime--;

I am running a sweepstakes like thing and want my users to all be able to load the page and have the exact same countdown and number generator running. I tried this in AS3 but each user caches their own swf file and gets a different result from the random number generator, and the as3 countdown is a few seconds off from each user. How would I go about making a countdown that is the exact same for each user looking at it at the same time and then a random number generator where every user will see the same result it gives? Is it even possible?
Sorry I wasnt clear on this. I would like to have it where the viewers could see the number being generated when the timer runs out. Kind of like watching the lotto on TV. Again, not sure if this is possible. I have looked around, I know as3, some php, and some javascript. I have given up on doing this in flash.
is there any timer function in flash to load a movie clip after a certain time elapsed? like we can adjust the time when it will load and when it will disappear

View 5 RepliesIm trying to design a countdown timer, with the ability to set the countdown time through buttons.I would like to have the dynamic text field to display the countdown numbers in HH:MM:SS format.I would also love to have a 30 minute button, and a 15 minute button which generates the time in the text field.Then a start and stop button to begin or end the countdown sequence.

I am getting an unexpected behaviour when using the onRollOver event with a movieclip.The onRollOver behaviour is initialised after some animation. This allows me to hold my cursor over the movieclip. When the initialise function adds the onRollOver event function to the clip, it triggers, even though my cursor is already over the clip and a nice animated glow is added to the movieclip. This is good and the behaviour I want.
onRelease the movieclip I call a disable function and this sets the onRollOver event function to null. After some more devestatingly good animation, I reuse the initialise function to reset the onRollOver event function to react again. This time, if my cursor is already over the clip when the onRollOver is initialised, the onRollOver does not fire.
Code:
function wsInitNodes():Void{
wsCurrentNode.onRollOver = function(){
// Do groovy animation stuff
};

im developing a match game for our website..i want to have about 6 external swfs for the cards that will be flipped over, and one main movie shell with 12 target clips that the 6 external files will load into. (each card needs to appear twice in the movie so that people can flip them over and match them)what would be the best way to randomly load in the cards into each of the 12 positions and make sure that each card gets loaded twice and no more.
View 1 RepliesLike the description says. I have six buttons, I want it so when you click any of them the movie clip plays once then when it is finished a specific url loads.

Code:

View 8 Repliesif I put a TLF in my FLA, doesn't matter where, the project compiles but as soon as it runs triggers errors that are not related to TLF at all.It doesn't find a linked class apparently. A class which has nothing to do with TLF. I remove the TLF (in root, anywhere I put it no difference) and the project runs again.

I'm trying to make a countdown timer, but I haven't really learnt all about actionscript. (not yet anyway), but I need a timer that can count down the hours, minutes, seconds and milliseconds from a given time to an other.
I need the start timer to say:
01:31:53:70 (hour:minutes:seconds:milliseconds) and then it should count down so the timer stops at:
01:30:00:00

I want to add a moving background loops of clouds moving left to right ( or vice versa). I made it last night with regular tween but only at 1800 frames which made the counter stop at that. I need the AS2 script for making the motion loop background which wont affect the existing 30 minute counter. I have a stable image of the church on one layer and plan to just add a new lay with separate moving clouds.

View 3 RepliesI am learning actionscript. I browse through the internet and this is the code that I have come up with for a timer to countdown from 11 mins.(subject title a mistake)However, I have a slight problem. When I click on teh start button to come down, I expect it to show 11:00, 10:59, 10:58 and so on.. But once I click the start button, it goes to 10:58 or 10:57 or some time before 02:00.
var start_time = getTimer();
var countdowntime=660000;
var countdownTimer:Timer=new Timer(1000);
