View 4 RepliesIs it possible to access a movieclip inside an external swf (.fla file), using data from a vector?
The following code works correctly:
this._graphics.message2_mc.textLabel_txt.text = "Test";
Where as when I loop through a vector and try to replace "message2_mc" it cannot find the movie clip:
for(var i:uint = 1; i <= this._playlistState.subMovieVector.length - 1; i++)
{
var movieName:String = this._playlistState.subMovieVector[i].movieName;
this._graphics.movieName.textLabel_txt.text = "Test";
}
Presumably this is because I am putting a string in the middle of the line of code accessing the movie clip?

I'm trying to read some data in from a sql source, some of which contains double quotes embedded in the text. I know I can strip the doublequotes, but don't want to go that route if I can avoid it.

For example:This is a "text" stringreplace double quotes with hex: This is a x22textx22 stringesults when read into flash: This is a <remainder is dropped>Yet if I type the same text string in a variable in flash, the string displays the double quotes properly:

I am developing movie with AS 3.0. I want to send a big array of data to MS Access using asp. Normally we were doing it with sendAndLoad method for the old action script versions. But now using with CS 5 and AS 3.0. so I have to use sendToURL or NavigateToURL or loader.Load.
But in this case i need to send large data so I can't send it as QueryString, and not want to use navigateToURL since i found that it carry data on its URL.
How could I retrieve the data from asp page and send to MS Access if I am using sendToURL or loader.load method?
