myButton.onRelease = function() {

Currently, I have a main SWF (shell) that pulls in external SWFs via XML. I'd like to add buttons to the main SWF that allows me to control the content within the external SWFs (i.e. play, pause, etc). I've played around with a few different ways to get this to work, but have come up empty each time.

i'm building a website using flash. i have a external swf file that i want to import into my website. i thought this would be an easy task but for some reason when i load the movie, it flickers. my website (parent swf) was build using 1.0. The external form swf was build using 3.0. My approach:
1.create an empty movie clip called mcForm
2.go to the mc clip page i want to pull the external movie into
3. within my actions layer, I call the following function loadMovie("main.swf", mcForm);
If i write:
LoadMovieNum("main.swf",0);
then the my main.swf opens correctly but closes the parent swf file. I wan the main.swf file to be embeded within the parent file.

So I got two flash movies. A big one and a small one. I want to display the small one into the big one. Additionally I want the ability to resize it, load it at certain frame in the clip and apply some sort of tween/fade in effect to the loaded swf, but first things first.

I am trying to create a global function to reuse repetitively. It worked until I moved the function to the external .as file. The problem is with MovieClip(root) and MovieClip(parent). They do not work and cause errors.

I will be creating a program to use for data entry. I'll be studying zebras in kenya and I won't have the internet there as I'm recording the data. I'd like to be able to send the data I generate in flash to an external text file. I understand I need some sort of script to do that, but is this something I can run just on my machine? (I'll probably make the data into xml format).

I am trying to eliminate the Loader component from a project. Run locally, the Loader is sufficient to load-up the voiceover swf files that exist on many of the frames in the parent file. On the web, the short download delays at runtime due to the Loader are causing timing issues. I'm not sure if there is a way to preload multiple swfs into specific frames of a parent file so that they are available before runtime.

I am trying to control a external swf file with a pause function. The main idea is loading an external file and when I want, pause it and its childs. The loader object is "introStage"

This is a project I'm working on for a simple demo tutorial application in Flex. I am using mxml pages. You can see to the left that I will have my main application and then other mxml files (In the Examples Package) as the examples that will be loaded into the main application mxml. How can I dynamically pull the value from the object in the list to load the child mxml file into the container that I have further down in the application?

I have a parent swf which loads many child swfs (though only one is displayed at a time). My intention was to use the loaded SWFs document class to retrieve an array of objects to be assigned a tab index, combine this with the parent's own array of objects and apply sequential tab indices to them all. But what happens is actually that the parent's objects are assigned an index, but the external swf is unaffected. In fact, the external swf retains its automatic tab indexing, when I would expect that having set a value for InteractiveObject.tabIndex, automatic tab indexing would be disabled.
I've seen similar tales elsewhere. Most posts I've read are wanting to load an external swf, give it focus and loop through those objects, then close the swf and return to looping through the parent. However I would like loop through all objects as one. including manipulating the focus manager(s), and basically fiddling with every tab-related property I know.

how to embed a value into a dynamically created MovieClip within an external file (.as) that I can access in my .fla file when the MovieClip is clicked.
I have created an external file (.as) that draws a series of adjacent boxes with a number in sequence on top of them. That much works OK, but I want to load it into a Flash file that will do math calculations based on the number of the box.
Here's my .as file.
Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.text.TextField;
[Code]....
How, for example, can I get the "slide_number.text" box to say something like "The square of this number is ..." and the square of the figure?

In flex 3 I have a hierarchical data structure. I would like to display the content of it in a tree. My problem is that I have nodes which data calculated from children nodes. How to structure the hierarchy to make automatic changes to those parent nodes, if their children's data changed? For example:
Every node has a warning flag. If some of the children warning flag changed to true, then the parent warning flag should change automatically set to true. A node integer field is the sum of the children integer fields, and if any of the children changes, the parent integer field "calculates" the sum immediately. Is there an easy solution wit good structuring changes happen automatically, or I have to make some custom functions?

I'm running it in actionscript 1 and 2 since 3 wouldn't work when getting data from external media. I'm trying to find out how to post data to a PHP file and getting from that file I'm trying to make the flash for something that works like a game but differently. Since I just found out how to make the HTML stuff show up but a lot of times, some of my text will not appear so I don't know what's going on.
how to send and get data both at the same time from a sample file?
The sample file is example.php
It has to sent information like ID and NAME and it has to get information like Description and userID

I have a simple swf file which loads data from an external XML file.At present, the user types the filename of the XML file they wish to load.Is it possible for Flash to 'read' the filenames of all of the available XML files in the folder and then present these filenames in a drop down list for example? Then, instead of typing filenames, the user would just click on the XML file they wanted to load.

1. How could I make it where some images/text in a flash file is taken from another outside file. For example lets say I have a image and text that would need to change constantly. The image could probably be done by using a url and changing the image set to that url, but I would rather have it search for a images file name on my computer. For the text is there a way I could use a text document, and have it set up to take the text in that document and display it.
2. How can I make it so when I click a link to an outside url it doesn't confirm that I want to visit it.
