ActionScript 3.0 :: Best Way To Pass Values Into Flash?
Aug 13, 2009
I need to ask your advice, I am developing a site where music is uploaded by unsigned bands.I would like the player to be developed in flash.I would want an area where you can search for music and also would like the user to be able to generate play lists when they are logged in.I was going to put the filenames into the database and use PHP to grab them and display them and then use JavaScript to pass the values into the flash player.But I think this will not work on the play list.So should I get the list of tracks using PHP and use Flash to display them?Or should I be using XML and not put the filenames in the database or even both.I have spent a bit of time Googling this and thinking about how I am going to attack this so my question to you guys is what would be the most efficient way of doing this.

I've created some dynamic movieclips. When I click and hold on one of them, I'd like a different library linked MC to appear, and the new MC to be draggable.
I can make the new MC appear, and I can make it draggable. However, I'm a little lost when it comes to telling Flash to forget about the old clip, and make the new one the 'live' one.
In other words - after a click-hold, I want the new movieclip to be movable without the user having to mouse up and then click again.

How do I pass values by reference inside a for each construct in AS3? Basically, I want something equivalent to the following code in PHP:
foreach ($array as &$v) {
$v = $v + 1;
}
This would allow me to change all elements of the collection $array through a single loop.

I am wondering if it's better to pass an instance of a whole class to another class or just specific properties of that class. For example if I want the height property of class A in class B do I pass just the height value into class B or the whole instance of the class and use classA.height in class B?

HOW can I have a value shared between multiple classes? For example.
Code:
public var test:int = 3;
This works fine for the "main" class, but in the "animal" class, it can't access this variable. So if I wanted to set a rate of movement for an object, say animal, and I want to change it later in a different function, well, how? Any good guides to passing variables between functions and classes that are easy to understand? HOW can I pass values to ENTER_FRAME events, err...any events really. Example.
Code:
public class animal extends MovieClip{
public function animal(){
trace('crazy stuff happening');[code]....
Lets say I wanted to pass the Y value from the main class and not from within the animal function.

I am creating a game in Flash 8 with AS 2 and i have few questions to ask.First of all, i am stuck for 2 days at creating a Laser Beam from tower to the target.I searched all internet for solutions but i can't really find one, so i'll try posting questions myself..First i tryed to create and effectHolder into which every laser beam was created, because it seems i can create only one line in each movieClip.[code]This was triggered eveytime it had a target.With every tower that fired a laser i created it was getting more lag, so i tryed selfdestructing after few time.[code]The problem is that i didn't know how to pass the coordonates of the tower and the target to the MovieClip so it knows where to create the line.[code]how to create that line ("laser beam") for each tower, without lagging so much.

I have a program that uses a document class. The preloader.swf calls the main.swf. Problem is, the main swf uses FlashVars to set certain parameters. If I use preloader.swf to load the main.swf, FlashVars will no longer work.
So I need some way for preloader.swf to pass the FlashVars to the rest of the program.

Im having a little problem making javascript communicate with actionScript, Here is the problem, i have a application that uses javascript to communicate with SWF and pass it some values, and the code was working in AS2 with the following:
[Code]....
in this example the aplication would pass key to the javascrip function and the function would put the value in the swf variable called _root.valor. So the problem is (as you already know) _root has gone in AS3. And every thing i tryed so far seems not to work. every thing i read so far was to embeb the swf in the js and use
root.loaderInfo.parameters.valor, well i dont want to use the embedSWF because i need to get the activeX cotnrol from my document. Is there any _root replacement? is anyway to get this to work at all ?

I'm having to pass data (originally read via an XML file loaded by the parent class) to a child class upon instantiation, and I can't decide which is the better method.I could parse the XML in the parent and throw the data into an Object and pass that object to the child class....or just pass the part it needs as an XMLList and let the child class do the parsing.Seems like a trivial decision, yes, but I'm not sure of longer-term implications.

Trying to pass a variable as well and cant seem to escape to pass it. How can I pass using window.open as such: Trying to pass (pid) all i get back is (pid) and not actual pid.How to on a jscommand?
Code:
something.onRelease = function () {
var jscommand:String = "window.open('http://www.someform.php?proj= + (pid)','win','height=200,width=300,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes');"; getURL("javascript:" + jscommand + " void(0);"); }
I can do a standard getUrl("http://www.someform.php?proj=" + (pid), "_blank"); works fine but no control over window properties.
