I want to add a function from an array to my addeventlistener .. so I can add different functions within a loop..
Code:
var ary:Array = new Array(one,two);
button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, ary[i]);
Yes I left out the for loop code :: for simplicity sakes.
I want to use tweenlite to tween a navui_mc onto stage when I rollover another mc. Once navui_mc has completed the tween, I want to ad an MOUSE_OUT eventlistener to navui_mc, so that when I mouse off this mc is tweens out.The function call at the end of the tween seems to work as it is tracing that it has completed, but i dont think I can have the eventlistener in a function?
ActionScript Code:

I have 4 buttons and on release of any of the buttons it will call a function. How do you apply a function to any member of an array?I've placed "any_btn" into my code below to show what I mean
Code:
var btns = Array("btn_1, btn_2, btn_3, btn_4");
any_btn.onRelease = function(){
trace("working");
}
I'm newish to Actionscript and need a lesson. Say I have 4 buttons and on release of any of the buttons it will call a function. How do you apply a function to any member of an array?

I have a set of Cue Points in an FLV I'm playing. It's an interactive quiz, so the idea is that flash will change a variable, theAnswer, to a different letter depending on which question it is. The answer to question 1 is B, question 2 is D, etc. Either the cue point event listener isn't working, or else it is working and Flash isn't declaring the variables. 1120: Access of undefined property theAnswer. I literally can't find a single problem with my code. I have an almost identical Event Listener further down which works.

When the escape key is released, I close the deepest child in a tree-like structure, and then tell it's parent (which is now the new 'deepest child') to close when the escape key is released ... but I do that while such an event is triggered, that causes the whole chain to close.

However when the screen is resize and the thumbnails are repositioned. The tooltips are still referencing to the old position. I tried to 'refresh' the positions by adding the same EventListener again on resize. But didn't work

I am trying to add evenListeners to movieClips that are created by a method in one of my Classes. Creating an instance of my class from the main timeline and then adding that instance to the stage.:
//MY CLASS
var createSlide:AddItems = new AddItems();
var scrollClip:Sprite = new Sprite();
addChild(scrollClip);
//ADDIMAGES CREATES 4 MOVIECLIPS
createSlide.addImages(BG,image1,image2,image3,image4);
//ADD TO STAGE
scrollClip.addChild(createSlide);
So how do I add event listeners to the movieClips created by createSlide?
Reading a book i stumbled on this example:
Here is the class:
package com.learningactionscript3.loading {
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.display.LoaderInfo;
[Code]....
What I deduce from this example is that the swfLoader.contentLoaderInfo and _ldrInfo = this.contentLoaderInfo refer to the same object in the same memory location. So you may think: "well the last added event will overwrite the first one (the internally one added). But it doesn't. The two event listeners will respond sequentially. First the internal listener and then the external listener.
Every time i try to run it i get the following errors.[code]....

View 2 Replies i can't seem to be able to make a EventListener work with a normal number value.my code is very basic, I'm making a game and i want it to update the stats text when the value changed, but when i try to add a event listener to my value it just kills all my code and nothing executes after it.In my Player.as i have:
Code: Select allfor(var j=0; j < stats.length; ++j) {
stats[j] = 0;
stats[j].addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, statschanged, false, 0, true);
}[code]........
when my flash gets to the addEventListener part of the code it just STOPS, nothing executes after it.Does anyone know a way i can make an event listener for a value that's in (or out) of an array?
I'm trying to setup something like Aspect Oriented Programming in Actionscript 3, basically the only thing I need to be able to do is something like this:
SomeClass.getMethod("methodName").addEventListener(afterMethodExecuted, function() {
//run code
});
This way I can run code after (or before) any method in any class has run, allowing numerous new possibilities.
Is is possible to attach an EventListener to a function? Such that if at any point in a function's execution an Event is Dispatched the EventHandler will get fired?

I have an array of 12 buttons on a timeline that when first visiting that part of the timeline, get a CLICK eventlistener added to them using a for loop. All of them work perfectly at that point.When you click one it plays a frame label inside the specific movieClip and reveals a bio on the corresponding person with a close button and removes the CLICK eventlisteners for each button, again using a for loop. The close button plays a closing animation, and then the timeline goes back to the first frame (the one with the 12 buttons on it) and the CLICK eventlisteners are re-added, but now only the first 9 buttons of the array work. There are no output errors and the code to re-add the eventlisteners is exactly the same as the first time that works. I am completely at a loss and am wondering if anyone else has run into this problem.All of my buttons are named correctly, there are absolutely no output errors (I've used the debug module) and I made sure the array with the buttons in it is outputting all 12 at the moment the close button is clicked to add the eventlisteners back.[code]

I have an array of buttons in a public var in _model.btnArray. I want to make a function that i can pass an index number parameter that will add addEventListener to the button at that index and removeEventListener to all other buttons in the array. The function creates a tempArray:Array and assigns _model.btnArray to it. Then it addEventListener to the index passed as a parameter to the function. Then it splices the passed index out of the tempArray and then loops through spliced tempArray to remove all the EventListeners from it. which should be the listeners on all the buttons except for that one spliced. but this isn't working, its giving me an error and i don't know why.should this be working or is it just wrong?
Code:
function addRemoveEventListener(num:Number){
var tempArray:Array = _model.btnArray;

I have 40 buttons on the stage. Their names are contained in the Array musicGrid. What I'm trying to do with this code is attach an EventListener to each button so that it will call the function mgMouseBehavior with a parameter to identify the button. For example, I want the button at musicGrid[0] to call the function mgMouseBehavior(0). I want the button at musicGrid[32] to call the function mgMouseBehavior(32), and so on.
However, if you try to add parameters to mgMouseBehavior in the addEventListener, for example:
Code:
musicGrid[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, mgMouseBehavior(i));
Then you get Error 2007: Parameter listener must be non-null. How would I accomplish what I'm trying to do?
I'm trying to execute a fucntion by calling it through an event listener I can't call it directly seems to be out of scope or un intialized or something. I've had luck calling variables in this manner but have never tried to call a function. Can I do it through the event?

I am trying to make a subclass of flash.display.Loader, which should do something when the loader completes loading the content.
