ActionScript 2.0 :: Passing Variables Inside A For Loop?
Jan 21, 2009
I'm using a few for() loops to populate my game. Now, I have 2 versions of each function, one that executes when my variable "debug" exists, and the other that activates only if "debug" does not exist.Looks kinda like this:
ActionScript Code:
// first, if debug exists, the script will execute for the single instance of my movie clip "myBox_0".
if(debug){
// assign a value to the string "myTarget"
[code]....
Now, on the line I starred*, if I enter "images/0" instead of what you read there, then it works. But when I try to use the variable "i" then it gives me the error "Error opening URL 'images/undefined.png'" I ran a trace statement to track "i" through the code and it works up until I enter the tellTarget statement... how can I get my script to pass that variable through that statement?

How can I make a bunch of variables from a for loop. for example for (var i=0; i<total; i++) {var bunch(i);}. that i make a bunch of variables named bunch1, bunch2, bunch3. I keep getting errors. I program and use so many different languages that I dont know if that can be done with AS3. my only other alternative i can think of is to create some sort of event dispatcher object array. but I dont know how to get them all to send events to one listener with there index number.

I have done this same thing in ActionScript 3, but am not familiar with ActionScript 2, which I am forced to use for this project. I am loading products into a SWF via XML and attempting to add a click event to each dynamically-created movieclip. Simply tracing the text from a node in XML will do for now. I'd like to assign a property called "desc" or "description" to each movieclip and have it trace that property's value when clicked. Here is the relevant portion of my code as it stands:
ActionScript Code:
var iXML:XML = new XML();
iXML.ignoreWhite = true;

var xmlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("xml.xml");

It dies every time on that last line. How do I refer to that vidThumbn instance so I can add the imageLoader? I don't know what I'm missing. It feels like it should work.

I have a swf with an input text box and a button. When the button is clicked, I need it to open another swf in a new window on a different domain and pass the variables to a dynamic text box in the new window. I looked at local connect but I wasn't sure it would work because the two windows wouldn't necessarily be loaded at the same time and they are on different domains.

I am loading images into a movie clip dynamically from an XML file. Based on what image the user clicks, I would like to be able to open a separate window, displaying a different image. Ideally, I'd pass the variable of which image was selected to the new open window.I've done some research online, and am thinking I'm making this harder than it needs to be.
Actionscript from main movie
Code:
chosenImage.onPress = function() {[code]......
I've also seen where I could possibly pass a variable through ASP.NET, but am experiencing the same errors when trying to pass the variable. I suppose I could embed the popup.swf file in a new .aspx page, that would probably be acceptable.

var urlVars:URLVariables = new URLVariables();

I'm trying to develop a site map, which draws a tick over the sections of my app that have been completed. I've figured out how to draw the tick and how to pass variables from root to the MovieClip that the function is in.
To make the tick appear only after an mc has been watched, I tried setting a variable equal to 1 ino the last frame of the MovieClip, and telling the function to run if that variable was 1.
I'm not getting compiler errors, but I'm also not getting the tick. And I'm definitely completing the Movie
Here's what I've got so far: In root
Code:
var xcoord = 125;
var ycoord = 300;
var WaterComplete = 0;

Creating a flash project where users can visit the site, and turn off/on objects in a house (ie. lights, tv, computer, etc.) The next user who will visit the house in the website, will see what lights or house appliances were left on. Flash variables are passed to PHP, and those variables are saved in an XML file. (For testing to see what is being saved to the XML file, on each click --vars.xml opens.) In the vars.xml file, I see that the house objects that were last turned on--are saved in the XML file- But in the SWF file, only one of the objects that are listed in the XML are turned ON. Only the last object that was clicked on would show ON--not all the objects in the XML file.)

This php script displays the top 20 users from a database based on their hit count. The script passes their avatar (image), username and link, as well as total hits.
I wanted to create a flash file with one movieclip that would parse the php file and display the results in an i++ fashion, so that I could make changes to only one mc instead of 20, when needed.
I have tried making a dynamic text field an mc, and assigning the loadvars object to that mc... but can't get any information to display... and I know the php file works like a charm.

I have a flash file that I made that displays a scrolling newsfeed (I'll call it newsfeed.swf)... I published it to an SWF. Now, I created a new flash file that I would like to use to show many instances of newsfeed.swf. In my new flash file, I have the following code:
this.onLoad=function(){
mcNewsfeed.loadMovie(http://www.whatever.com/newsfeed.swf?s=MSFT);
}
In theory, when newsfeed.swf starts up, the ?s=MSFT variable should be passed in at the _root level such that I should be able to reference it and build the newsfeed to be displayed dynamically. I've tried several different things, but no matter what I do, the following code (the _root.s part) in newsfeed.swf returns "undefined":
newsfeedURL = "http://finance.yahoo.com/rss/headline?s=" + _root.s
I would prefer to not have to pass XML files between the swf files or use system objects as that would add a level of complexity I'm not ready to deal with (I'm a total noob at this stuff)...

So, I read the tutorial about passing variables by changing the url of the .swf with the following code:
Code:
if (movie==1 or movie=="") {
trace("default");
}
[Code]....
My question is, is there anything special if I want it to respond to the url of a .php page? So, if I have a page that ends in "?page_id=2" could I do the same thing or does it have to be an .swf?
Code:
if (page_id==1 or page_id=="") {
trace("default");
}

I have been trying to pass a variable to a SWF. From the research I have done it seems pretty straight forward, but I cannot seem to get it to work. I am wondering if it has something to do with the way the SWF is added to the HTML page. Would someone take a look at this for me?
