I am trying to make a website that you can press a link in flash that opens up a external swf file within the same area but in a overlay effect... similar to lightbox image viewer.
I have linked in already with the requestURL function but that just opens in a browser window.
My code doesn't work.I use flash 8 (AS 2.0). When I click a button, I want it to load another flash file but not into the same parent/web page. I need the file to load in it's own window.
on (release) {
loadMovie("MyAccountPage.swf", "_blank");
}
After this, I still do not get a respond when I test run the script.
I've been searching around trying to work this out for a while now. There's been various ideas popping up, like dispatchEvent etc but nothing that seems to be a clear, simple way of doing this.What I'm trying to do is call a function from a class seperate (but in the same folder as) my document class.Specifically, I want to 'spawn' an object and run a function within that object's class from my Main.as.The snippet I have at the moment is as follows;
In Main.as:
var object:class_Object = new class_Object();
object.spawn();

How do I call a private function from an external ActionScript3 document? I'm working in Flash Builder 4, and I need to call a private function from an external AS3 document. I think I've imported it correctly....
import myapp.utils.WebcamFaceDetector;
import myapp.utils.FaceDetector;
But I want to call a function from "FaceDetector". Here's the part of the code in FaceDetector...
public class FaceDetector
{
private var detector :ObjectDetector;
private var options :ObjectDetectorOptions;
[Code]....
I want to call "private function FaceDetector()" to initiate at a certain point in another AS3 file. How do I properly declare it and get it to run?
Can anyone help me in this regard? I have Actinscript file in which I have defined a function like below:
actionScript.as (file name)

I've got a flash file that reads some links from an xml config file. These links look like:
<url target="_blank" method="GET"><![CDATA[http://www.google.com]]></url>
Instead of a link, I'd like to call a javascript method that opens up a modal dialog with a list of items. I've tried the following based on some things I found, but I can't get it to work.
<url target="_self" method="GET"><![CDATA[javascript:loadAsModal(#modaldiv, ajaxmenu.jsp?gid=3)]]></url>
and
<url target="_self" method="GET"><script type="text/javascript"><![CDATA[loadAsModal(#modaldiv, ajaxmenu.jsp?gid=3)]]></script></url>
loadAsModal() takes in an empty div that i put on the page, and then the menu.jsp which builds the menu given the group id. I made sure to import all of my js libraries on the page.
I have a menu and when I click I want to add a new swf on top calling from a seperate xml doc. it seems to be calling the airplanes.swf underneath the first MC.any ideas why? Is it because I am using xml to populate the swf.[code]

I am very new to ActionScript. I have a .fla file which contains the AS2 code for the frames. What I need to do is that I have to export this code as a separate file. There may be a separate file(or class file) for each frame code. Is it possible to me do it automatically without losing animation interactivity and functionality? Or is there any other way?
View 1 RepliesIs it possible to export text from a text field, which has been created in Flash and export it into an external file such as a text file or Word document?The idea is that information will be collected by the user into a text field within the swf. Hopefully, this information can then be exported into an external file which will allow the user to work on and edit at a later stage. It needs to be a separate editable document. Is this possible? I'm using Flash 8.

I am wondering why is there a seperate as file in a zip I downloaded? There are the files slider.as and slider.fla. There is only one frame in the fla file and I was wondering if I can combine the fla and as file to make it work, since I will be combining it with another file. This is the Slider.as file:

I'm trying to get this one function to be able to call many functions (not at once, but call many possible ones)In other words, I'm trying to get this variable to be named as a function. That way, this one variable can create multiple functions.example:
actionscript Code:
class Thing extends MovieClip{ var funcvar; var othervar; function onLoad() funcvar = "YYY"; othervar = "ZZZ"; function onEnterFrame()

Using Flash CS4 Pro (version 10.0)I am using a timer function to pause a text effect in a movie clip (textEffects).I also have a separate movie clip (Bfind) that when rolled over, it controls the textEffects movieclip. On roll out of Bfind, textEffects is restarted at frame 1.Everything works great until i hover over and out of the button target a few times. The bug I am having is that it seems the timer function is ignored after textEffects goes back to frame 1.[code]and the following is how i call the function on 4 separate frames in textEffects:[code]

I am refactoring some code. I have a PHP page that contains a MySQL query and stores the result in a PHP variable $my_result. This result is then echoed to a Flash SWF during embedding with SWFObject. I now want to call this PHP page that makes the query from a javascript function like so - one change I have made to the PHP is that instead of storing the result in a variable $my_result I am echoing the result.
