ActionScript 2.0 :: Referring To Variable LoadVar Dynamically?
Mar 31, 2004
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 am going to have a button that when you click on it it creates a movieclip and adds a certain child to it (In this case, its linkage is set as "Rifle"). Each time you click on the button I need to give the new movieclip a different instance name then the last, such as "Riflemen1", "RifleMen2" etc.. I will need to be able to refer to each movieclip seperatly in my code, such as for example:
You spawn three Riflemen.. You click on one of them, which selects it, you then click on an "Attack" button which makes only him start firing (in my case gotoAndStop(2)), you then decide you want the third one to attack and so forth..

I'm creating a DDR style game. The 'moving graphics' are being randomly and dynamically created with the default instance name (instance28, instance 30...) I want to be able to refer to these different elements according to another movie clip I press (in this case, they look like piano keys).
So, if a 'C' moving graphic is created, I want the C movie_clip with a listener attached to check the 'C' moving graphic.

I'm trying to access an instance by using a variable but when I try to manipulate a property to the instance (by referring to it with a variable) it only recognizes it as a string... for instance... (pun intended??)
public var prevbutton:String = "btn1";
trace(["page"+prevbutton]);
// which traces - pagebtn1
trace(pagebtn1);
// which traces the instance class - [object btn1pageclass]
I want to call the instance by using a variable... how do I do this?

I have found a tutorial which shows me how to create a class. It also shows me how to construct an object in the main code. What I want to do is to access a variable from the object that I made. Heres the code...This is the link to the tutorial:http:[url]....
Code:
package
{
public class Car [code]....
Then I use this code to construct the object, which in this case is a car (the code is in my main flash file):
Code:
var mycar:Car = new Car("Porche", 3.2, 4, "Normal doors");
I understand all of the code, but how do I reference a variable like the engine? I have tried lots of things like "trace(this[mycar] .engine)", "trace(mycar.engine) but nothing seems so work. I just get error messages of property undefined.

i have a swf that is a email form. it works great if you just load this swf on to the server. but i have another swf that loads the email form swf into it. all of it shows up and seems to function except that it doesnt actually send the email. im guessing the problem is that the code on the send button isnt working with the new pathway. I cant figure out the path. heres the code that works in the email form

I'm building an array of JPEG files from an XML file. I need a way to verify that the file exists on the server as it build the array. If it's not there I want to substitute another file name in it's place: default.jpg. Using loadVars I came up with this code.... which won't work:

I posted this on the FLASH forum but the only answer I got was that it can't be done and I should use a server-side script. Flash should be able to tell if a load failed or not..yes.

im just wondering for the best way to read variables of a .php page into flash
[Code]...
but that dident work either the real problem is, i guess that i need it to read in the variable array[0,0]=1 just like that and not use sumthingrather=(myVars.varname) because there will be a hell of alot of variables, and the variable ammounts will switch and i cant do a sumthingrather=(myVars.varname)

How to add a child to the stage dynamically? I can get a child to add to the stage but not using dynamic variables. Is it possible?
Example:
var firstRoundWinner:String = "Redsquare";
var mc:MovieClip = new firstRoundWinner();
// want it to say = new RedsquareaddChild(mc);
With Redsquare as one of my movieclips and the linkage is working. I can add it if I hard code it. But I want to load the variable dynamically through xml.

So, if I need to give a custom variable name to an object how would I do that?
For instance, if I have a gameID that is 12345 and its rating is 3 I want to save a variable called gameRatings_12345 thats value is 3 in my shared local object.
//share object
protected var mySavedData:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("mySavedData");
I have the game id in a string
var gameID:String = "12345";
Then when I try to assign the value like this...
mySavedData.data.gameRatings_gameID = 3
I think it's literally reading it as "mySavedData.data.gameRatings_gameID" instead of "mySavedData.data.gameRatings_12345"
How can I give the variable a custom name?
