I am reading a file with certain user defined variables like &x=30&y=50&z=100
Lets the variable is caught in a function as argument myVar
now depending on the variable the user passes I need to fetch the value. ie if the user passes x i need to read the value of x. how the user has named his/her variables.
What i need to do it get the value of that variable by using loadVar.
this.myVar; As such it gives me undefined. There is text present in 'this' myVar represents 'x' I have tried eval(this.myVar) as well as this.eval(myVar) but in vain

I have 2 methods in a actionscript class.[code]I get duplicate variable warning. Is the local variable scope not limited to the method. Can't I declare same name variable in multiple methods?
View 3 RepliesThis is suppose to be an error I overlooked, but when I saw that I have forgotten to declare weekDayLabels right below the class, shivers travel down my spine that it works.[code]
View 3 RepliesTake a look at this code:
Code:

class Test

[code]....
Well... Doesnt work at all... In the class, there isnt a instance of i, so, how may i access this property inside a class function? But i still have an way to access the class.
I could do this way:
Code:
class Test
{
function Test(mc:MovieClip)
{
[code]....
But this way, doesn't sounds good
I've been having trouble with scope in subclasses, where variables that I would like to be local to each instance of a class are instead global. For example:
Code:
class Prototype extends MovieClip {
//Various functions all clips have access to
}
class Ship extends Prototype {
[code]....
I've found that if I instantiate more than one ship, the hitboxes array is populated with clips from every instance of the class, instead of staying local to each instance as I'd like. Is this because I'm attaching them with a constructor?
My code:
Code:
onClipEvent (construct)
{

I'm trying to make a Class for a slideshow. I have a problem using the setInterval and clearInterval methods.See my code below. In the showPic function I have a conditional clearing the interval (repeating the showPic function). At least, it should do so, but it's not working. The interval continues. I'm using "this" so that's not the problem. Maybe it has to do with the scope of the variable to which I assigned the interval?

I'm working on a sliding gallery like Hulu. Setting it up and the sliding slides in and out is working fine. However, I need to add and then remove a button to each slide as it comes in and goes out. (I initially tried including the button on each slide, a mc, but this proved problematic for the event listeners). So when the file loads up, I add a mc to the first slide of the group like so (features[] is an array of movie clips - my slides):
Code:
var goBtn:MovieClip = new FeatureButton();
features[0].addChild(goBtn);
goBtn.x = 350;
goBtn.y = 230;
So I add the button/mc to the first slide - works just fine.
So there are two handlers, next and previous. So I started with the next handler. The first thing I have to do is kill the button on the panel that is sliding out, so I do that like so:
Code:
features[featureCount].removeChild(goBtn);
goBtn = null;
(featureCount is a counter keeping track of the slides). This works fine. I click the next button, and the button on the slide disappears and we move to the next slide - perfect.
So then I add the following next - exactly like I did in the beginning:
Code:
var goBtn:MovieClip = new FeatureButton();
features[featureCount].addChild(goBtn);
goBtn.x = 350;
goBtn.y = 230;
This time adding it to the current slide coming in - but this generates the following error:
Code:
TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter child must be non-null.
at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/removeChild()
at featuregallery_fla::MainTimeline/nextFeature()
How I'm getting an error on the removeChild() when that is already gone. I assume "parameter child" means goBtn - yes it is null because it's been removed. But I'm not trying to do something with that. I can only guess this is a variable scoping issue with goBtn - but I'm not seeing how to resolve it. Flash file attached.
I'm binding an array of items to a data grid using ItemRenderer. I use the data variable to control the bindable data. I also have someComponentVariable that need be inserted into every row but its declared at the component scope, so the data grid doesn't seem to reconize it (compile error). How can I use this variable (someComponentVariable) inside the ItemRenderer?

You will find enclosed a ".zip" file in wich there's a ".fla" file, a ".txt" file and 6 ".jpg" images. Frame 1 of the FLA only has a "Preload" class/constructor found on another site and works well. Frame 2 launches the graphic interface construction. The file "externalVar.txt" has one variable "maxVin" with a value of 6.
I would like to know WHY i can't acces this variable from outside of the loadVars object's scope (i would better say from outside of its ".onLoad" methode scope). In fact, when i trace my variable "maxVinNum" from outside of this function, flash player return "undefined". Even if i declare "maxVinNum" on the _root (_root.maxVinNum). For information, at the start of frame 2, i have let an instruction in comment: //var maxVinNum = 6; When we activate this instruction, then the variable is directely declared and everything works well. This test allow us to verify that scripts are not bugged. Here is the script of frame 2, some of you may understand quickly what's wrong :

In the code below, I'm looping through nested xml structure of an unknown number of levels. GenMenu is (or will be) a recursive function that will build each level of the menu. My problem is that I can't figure out how to reference the variables from an eventlistener function. I need to pass the children node_xml[i] to the next recursion, as well as set hover styles on the menu links, etc...
Code:
function GenMenu(container, name, x, y, depth, node_xml) {
// variable declarations
var curr_node = new Array();
var curr_menu:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
addChild(curr_menu);

I'm not an experienced Actionscript user so I'm not sure what the normal way to associate a custom class with a movieclip that has been designed in the Flash IDE is. I made a class called Window to control a movieclip called TestWindow. There are some buttons in the movieclip whose
functionality I would like to assign the instance of class Window. How is this supposed to be done? Here's a representation of what I mean. I hope it is sort of clear. My actual problem is that the local variables are outside the scope of the onPress function but I also think there must be some other way of associating classes with movieclips that have been designed in the IDE.
I have a Debug class I've written, and I'd like to include a static trace() method in there, unfortunately I have no idea how to then access global / top level trace as effectively I've blocked it with the local static scope.[code]
