It's slower to call a function this way than calling it directly?
What I'm wondering is if the function names are all hashed, so calling it with bracket and string would just be a hash look up or is flash actually iterating through all the function names (and maybe all variable names) and doing string comparison to find the right function to call.
I have a variable in the _root called section.Now I want to call hemmaAnimation(); within a the global function (see below).So I set the section variable to hemma & tried these:
_global.sectionAnimation = function(){
this[section+"Animation"]();
};

but no luck.

I am running into problems with a custom class I have written. I did a search on the error message here, but didn't find a solution that quite fit what was going on. I think my problem is in how I'm tying the class to the movie script in the library, but I'm not sure.
I have a MovieClip symbol in the library named nav1. It is set to export, with the class name being nav1, and the base class being the custom class I created. In the base class I have a function:

Say I have a class B that extends class A.In class A, I have a variable that I've declared to be a function, which gets defined in the constructor. Now, in class B, is there any way to reference that function with the use of super.functionName()?

TypeError: Error #1006: functionName is not a function. at MethodInfo-147() I'm basically getting this error message everytime I try to call a function from another SWF. I followed FrodoBaggins example to Access a loaded SWF, I have two files. In the first one (lets call it a.FLA, there's a function called functionName in the first frame of the timeline. The second file is a class (lets call it b.AS, which taget is b.FLA), from where I want to call functionName from a.FLA... this is what I did:

I'm trying to use ExternalInterface.Call to call a JavaScript function to launch a lightbox window. So far I have this:
AS3:
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("launchLB", "" + aUrl + "");
JavaScript:
function launchLB(url) {
alert(url);
[Code]....
I get the alert but I can't get the lightbox window to display. When my as code makes the ExternalInterface call I get what looks like a page refresh and a blank browser window.
I have an enterFrame action that I use on a graphic:
[Code]....
Because I want to use the above code more than a few times, I tried to make it a function.
[Code]....
But for some reason the function call does not work when I call it via an action on a graphic where initially the code worked when it was explicitly written and not called as a function.
Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
fadeOut();
}
why this is not working.I have an application with a new class I just created. The class loads, but will not call it's own internal function.
package com.parkerandkent.components.classic.photogallery {
import caurina.transitions.Tweener;
import flash.display.MovieClip;[code]....
"Test 2" will not fire here.And I get this error message:
CallTag.as , Line 10 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method init.
I need to get a javascript var in my Flash application. I like to be able to just set a variable in the javascript (client constraints) rather than define a function.
Can this be done? I am trying to use the ExternalInterface.call()
AS:
ExternalInterface.call("function(){return window.someVar}", null);
JS:
var someVar = "Test";
This does not work and I suspect it is because the ExternalInterface.call() does not like the anonymous function.
I have a function defined in JavaScript like so:
function fadeBack() {
alert("fadeBack called");
};
I call that function from my Flash file like so:
import flash.external.*;
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("fadeBack");
This works in both Safari and Chrome, but for some reason Firefox won't ever call the function. Still, I can't figure this out. How can I fix it?

I have an AS3 program that calls a function multiple times. The function must return multiple variables, so I created a class for the function to declare an object containing all of these variables. For example, here's my class:
package
{
public class PER
{
[Code].....
Let's say the calling program calls the function, which returns the variables into data_set1 (where data_set1 depends on input variables arg1, arg2, arg3) using:
var data_set1:PER = function_name(arg1, arg2, arg3);
The calling program does some stuff, then calls the function again, but returns the variables into a new variable name, data_set2:
var data_set2:PER = function_name(arg4, arg5, arg6);
My intention is that data_set1 and data_set2 are different (e.g. not linked together).
My question is, given that arrays are passed by reference, will data_set1 be modified to agree with data_set2 upon the 2nd function call? Why or why not?
