View 8 RepliesI need to call the function onClick before or after the eventListener is enabled. I tried just using onClick(); but I get error 1136: Incorrect number if arguments.
The eventListener is inside a for loop if that matters.
Code:
onClick();
for(var i:int = 0; < labelArray.length; i++){
typeButtonBack.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);

I'm pretty new to AS3 and am getting my feet wet as fast as I can. Currently I have a fairly simple thing I'm trying wherein I will have a button_mc that on ROLL_OVER, it triggers a function that will make another MC move. That part I can do- my question though is how can I have multiple button/movieclip "sets" that are able to call the same function? As an example, I'd have "button1_mc" trigger "shape1_mc", "button2_mc" trigger "shape2_mc", and so on. I want to avoid having to have separate sets of functions for each button/movieclip pair. I hope that makes sense.
Here's where I'm currently at with the first eventListener and corresponding function. You can see how in the function I have a specific MC (shape1_mc) named, which of course I'm trying to avoid, as I will likely have 5-10 similar buton/mc pairs like below. Is there a way to call the movieclip (shape1_mc) in the event handler itself without having to name it in the function?

In short: how can i call a function in another .as file? Is there a way to make header files or forward declarations in AS3?

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.

The Situation: I have a main.as that has a function that is worth 400 lines.
What I want to happen: I want that function to be loaded from another .as file so that my main.as does not look too long. Also, I have a lot of variables that was instantiated on my main.as that is called on that 400 line function.
The Question: How do I do this?
My client says make this, and use XML so it's dynamic and easy to update:A text box with scroller holding news headlines, and a more link that will open an MC with the entire news article. Like:11/28/05 - X-Raided Celebrates 3 Years in Prison Folsom Correctional facility officers report that imprisoned rap artist X-Raided threw a party in his cell (with his cellmate) to celebrate his third anniversary in prison. Officials state.[code]
how to make that "more" link in the XML tell flash to run a specific function.I already have a function that makes whatever mc I want visible and I can write some code to fill in dynamic text boxes with the proper nodeData.But what would that "href=" have to be in the XML in order to call that function inside of flash. Is there a way you can turn XML data into executable commands?

View 4 RepliesI'm loading from my main page an external js file, with a function.
I have a flash file in the main page invoking the javascript function.
Everything worked very well until when the javascript code was in the main file, but when I moved javascript to an external file the function seems not called anymore.
So... there is no way to move the javascript code to an external file ? Or any other solution ?

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:
