ActionScript 2.0 :: Get _root Array Data From Inside A Deep MC Hierarchy?
Aug 8, 2002
I have some global Arrays defined and loaded with data at the _root level. Data is OK cause I checked it with the List Variables option. I cannot address any of my arrays from within my MC hierarchy (not from MC2, MC1 or Component MC), BUT I can address variables defined at the root level correctly?
MC Hierarchy: ComponentMC-->MC1-->MC2-->Various MCs
I placed trace(_root.MyArray[0]); at MC2 level, then at MC1 level and finally at ComponentMC level but the sentence still reads "undefined". Is there a way to actually get my Arrays data from _root ?

var send_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
var broj:Number=0;
var logo = new Array();

At the beginning of my Flash game, I do some fairly heavy-duty calculations to figure out path-finding and visibility and that sort of thing. The result of the calculations are a few large Arrays and a Tree datastructure. It takes about 10 seconds on my computer. Is there a way I can do this calculation once and for all, and then just package up the final datastructures right in the the SWF, so that no one ever has to do the calculations again?

I have an array, crewPositionsAC that contains a list of position abreviatations - EP, PR, DR, WR, and so on. These positions are read in through an XML file each time my flex application loads. Also being populated from an XML is a project. Within a project, there are positions (a student assigned to a type of position listed within crewPositionsAC). These positions are not necessarily in the correct hierarchy order dictated by crewPositionsAC. I have all the positions within an ArrayCollection (positionsAC) with the following structure:
positionsAC (arrayCollection)
[0] = Array
[0] = startOffset
[1] = numDays
[code].....
Then, the user can click a button to add another position. When the "Add Crew Member" button is pressed, the user is presented with a list of possible positions to add. Currently, I simply add another array to positionsAC. This results in the recently added crew member to placed on the bottom of the list. I need to take positionsAC and reorder it based on it's [2] item (role) based on the hierarchy defined in the crewPositionsAC. crewPositionsAC has the following structure:
crewPositionsAC:
[0] = EP
[1] = PR
[2] = DR
[3] = WR
* continue until all possible position types are listed

Just wondering how this is done within an "if then" statement. I need a code like
if (_root.frame = "home") then {
this.quickHome.onPress = function () {
_root.gotoAndPlay ("homeToContact");
}
}
I know the first line isn't going to work, but just wondering if someone knew of a code that would?

If I have a movieclip on the main timeline, is there a way to put this movieclip inside another movieclip on stage (ofcourse during runtime) ? I know that one of the methods of doing this is using bitmapdata class to capture an image of the movieclip (draw method), then attaching the object it to another movieclip that can be anywhere, but this will make the movieclip lose it's interactivity behaviour, and vector quality.

The probem is I have an external swf file that loads a mailer. everything works fine apart from the fact that when the data is sent to the php file this command wont respond. It works on my local but once on the server it dont go.I think that the problem might be that MC (goin) is the MC that this code is located in?
onClipEvent (data) {
_root.goin.gotoAndPlay(12);
}

I just recently began migrating from AS2 to AS3, and I have of course realized that I can no longer move the "_root" by changing the _x and _y positions of the _root (which no longer exists in AS3). How can I do this in AS3 (specifying _x, _y, _z possibly of the "_root")?

I have an xml file (externally saved) that is similar to the following:
[root]
[main]
[title]...[/title]
[Code]....
What I like to do is to get what's in [title] tag using HTTPservice, import it into Flex, and save it as array objects, and do the same thing for [content]. This way I can later refer the array object saying title[0] or content[2].

I have bought Learning AS 3.0 (O'Reilly) but I have been having difficulty getting one of the tutorials to run. The tutorial shows how to record data from a microphone to a byte array, playback the saved data and save as a WAV file. For some reason, I can't get this working. When the swf runs, the Flash Settings screen doesn't pop up to request permission to access the microphone but I can still trace properties such as gain.
I've uploaded a zip containing all the classes and an FLA - just use RecordMicrophone_Example.as file as the document class. Here is the problematic area of the code:

I have No problems inserting data from flash to PHP into MySQL,it's sendind them back properlly.All I'd like to see happen is for one row of data to be inserted into a dynamic text field. here's what i've got if i access this php file, it prints out a vertical list from
a single MySQL row,I was happy.
$query = "select row from table";
$result = mysql_query($query, $db);
while($row = mysql_fetch_row($result))[code]...
and Instead of the vertical list (which i would love to see)i get an unparsed data array.
