Lets say I have a movieclip on the stage.
On the stage on frame 1 I define a variable. Lets say its a string that reads "hello".
Now in my movieclip on stage I am trying to trace that string I defined on frame 1 on the stage. How can I make this happen?
I have tried a few things but I can't seem to get it working right.

This is probably a fairly easy answer, but I can't figure it out. I have a dynamically added child, and I have a dynamic text box on the parent. I'm thinking that it should be possible for me to add to the text box from the child timeline, but I don't know how to target the text box.

ActionScript Code:
function createMaskBox():void {
var maskBox:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
galleryContainer.addChild(maskBox);
}
creates maskBox under the function therefore not accessible form outside of this function from what i understand. Is there a way to create a var WITHIN a function which would exist as if defined outside of it, directly in code?

I'm also relatively new to programming with actionscript, so my code might look quite messy to you Here is my function. It loads the contents of an .xml file and creates a playlist for a video player. Now my problem is that i want to set the "onRelease" function dynamicaly for each playlist item. but inside the onRelease-function i cannot access the variable i. do you have a hint / workaround for me?

access a variable in a parent movie from a child you use:
Code:
(this.parent as MovieClip).my_variable
but what if you wanted to access a variable from a string?EX:
Code:
var varString:String = "myVar";
(this.parent as MovieClip).varString ?I have tried:
Code:
(this.parent as MovieClip).this[varString]
but it doesn't seem to work.

I'm trying to take a variable from the parent movieclip and use it in the child movieclip inside of a dynamic text field.
The variable has a value that is taken from a php file.
I'm completely lost at the moment and know that my code is probably completely wrong.
here it is:
parent movieclip:
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,onLoaded);
loader.load(new URLRequest("../SC/FLA_cont-btn.php"));

I'm working in flex, but using as3. I have two components, and need to communicate between vars. I have my main app, and two components. I declare "newsDB" in the main app like this.
[Code]..
This gives me an error like so TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. I get that it is trying to touch the var before it is implemented. How should I go about this?

I'm trying to access a variable from my main movie in a loaded movie. I can't get it to work however. The movie loads into the main movie but I can't access anything from that main movie. I see that there a few write ups out there about this, but I just can't get it. I attached a zip as well as the source below.
here is the main movie script
function mainTimeline() {
trace ("Just friggin work already");
}
var myNumber:Number = 5;

PHP Code:
package {import flash.display.MovieClip;public class Main extends MovieClip {public va demoString:Strin = "TEST";public static var newClass:SubClass;public function

I'm trying to access the AchievementScreen's textfield from a medal object. Point being to have a mouseover event of the medal, change the content of the textfield shown.

I've been using greensock classes in a parent movie, but am now looking to use the same classes from within some child movies, but it doesn't work (I presently have to import them into each child movie - what a waste).
Do I need to create the classes as a shared library object perhaps? If so, how would I go about it? as I've only ever done this for MCs or MP3s.

What's the strategy for getting a child to access variables in a parent.I have a Main class.In that class I create instances of a Unit class and save those to an array.In the Unit class, I want to access the x and y coordinates of other instances of the Unit class.So I'd like to access that array I made in the Main class.I tried:this.parent.theArray[i].xbut that doesn't work. I tried using the get command, but I don't really know how to, so my efforts failed.

i am trying to make a basic preloader for an AS3 site. I followed the tutorial on this site (Preloading actionscript 3 the easy way) where its similar to AS 2 - create a Preloader movie and load the whole .swf into it.
only problem is i need some variables that i pass to the movie via QueryString parameters in the Object and embed tags. Is there any way to get this in my loaded movie?
i have tried
root.loaderInfo.parameters
and
stage.loaderInfo.parameters
and
parent.loaderInfo.parameters
none of them work. Can i create a variable in the prelaoder and just go "parent.thevariable" ? or does parent even work when something is loaded into a loader?

Wondering how to do this:
Parent swf has a class loaded, lets call it 'GlobalUtilities'. Parent swf loads in child swf. Child swf wants to use some of the 'GlobalUtilities' class that is in the parent.
How can I accomplish this? The problem I'm having right now is, when I export the child swf, I'll just error out since it can't find the reference (obviously, since it's not loaded into the parent yet).

how to access a movie clip/s in a parent swf from a child swf. for example:Interface swf has buttons as mc's (home, about, services, portfolio e.t.c.) and loads in a swf when one of the buttons in the interface swf is pressed. When a button in Interface swf is pressed none of the other buttons can be pressed until the swf of the button that was pressed has loaded.
The reason for this is so that if the user tries to press the buttons quickly lets say the user pressed services button but changed thier mind right after pressing it and wanted to press lets say portfolio button they couldnt press the button until the services swf has loaded. Ive seen websites that dont do this and is makes it all mess up. Ive been able to do this in the past in AS2 but i cant figure it out in AS3.This is the code i would use in AS2:
Interface swf code is:
ActionScript Code:
_level5.btn_1.enabled = false;[code]...........
