Is it possible to ad more than one parameter to an eventListener? And if so, how would one go about doing so (syntax-wise). Here's what I'm trying to do:[code]I want to be able to tell the gotoNextFrame function which movieClip to control.

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 am trying to to attach a function with parameters to the timer but it says "unrelated type function" is there any way to get around this??
code example:
var redoTimer:Timer = new Timer(50);
redoTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, saySomething("helloo"));
redoTimer.start();
this wont seem to work but is there a way to pass on arguments???
i have couple of videos that i want to play in succession. my theory on how to do this was to add an event listener that would call function to change the source of the FLVPlayback component and play once the initial video finished playing. The problem is that i don't know what parameters to pass to the eventlistener and the acting function. I just need someone to fill in the blanks to the following code

I am trying to add an event listener to my BitMap. Tile extends gameProps, which extends BitMap. I try using addEventListener. That doesnt work. but the Adobe docs say that Bitmap has an addEventListener object.

I have coded a map that when a province object is clicked on, it should move to the center of the screen and grow a percentage of the width, along with displaying a number of different things.
The problem is that in order for the image to resize it needs to be clicked on twice. It moves, and all of the children display just as they were designed to do, but the resize doesn't work on the first click.
menuItem4_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
public function onClick(mc:MouseEvent):void {
menuItem4_mc.width = width * .65;

First i used to work on AS2 but i have converted to AS3 to benefit the new features .
And here is my problem : i have a function where i will create in it several buttons each one do different task but each task is so small that can be only one statement like changing the value of some variable.
Do i have to make an EventListener and a handle function for each button !! i have tried that and it made my code very messy , can't i just make something like that : button1.onClick = function(){} like AS2 ? Or is there a class i can use to make something like ?
I've got as far as adding multiple buttons to the stage with AS3 and giving them unique instance names, but now I have a problem. There is no limit on the amount of buttons that could be present, there could be one or one hundred so I can't hard code.
How would I go about creating event listeners for each button? I tried pushing each instance name into an array then looping through but that gave me an error about how the buttons didn't exist, so it can't listen.
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]
View 2 RepliesI have class ShowCase that inherite from my class ContentMC (that inherite from MovieClip). In the class ShowCase I have an EventListner that calls a function in the parent class ContentMC. But I get an error that says "Access of undefined property restoreMenuItem".
This is my eventlistner in ShowCase.as.
showcaseItem.addEventListener("CONTENTMCCLOSED", restoreMenuItem);
Here I get the error, it doesn't find the function restoreMenuItem.
The function restoreMenuItem is in ContenMC and looks like this.
public function restoreMenuItem(evt:Event):void
{
}
How do I call this function that's in the parent?
In my Flash program, I am trying to run a function within an object. The object uses a class called "SkullDemon.as."

Within that file I create an instance of the Skull Demon class like this:

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 am trying to load data using flash remoting from a mysql database via php using amfphp, i have an event listener that waits for a combobox to be used and changed, once it does, the data in there should be sent to the backend part of the system via flash remoting using PendingCall and once done should retrieve the data and place it into a second combobox. but it doesn't work.

I have a clip where, on my main timeline, there's a bunch of eventlisteners. It freezes & crashes flash all the time... tho the exported swf file runs smooth. Im removing them when the playhead reaches a different frame, adding new ones at that frame as well.
View 12 RepliesI'm loading images via a URLRequest and Loader classes and I want to manage the image when the request is complete. The example below doesn't fire the event when it is complete. The same code would work find for a URLLoader, but not a Loader object. Basically the image loads and the event listener is never fired. Can anyone tell me how to get an event to fire when Loader finishes loading an image.

I just started using TLF text and it's interesting. I have this issue however. I made an swf to demonstrate the problem and you can try it here: [URL] But this is the problem: I have an input textfield (type input) and output textfield (dynamic not selectable) and eventlisteners on the input fields. It seems like the TLF does not register the enter-key. Try it for yourself via the link above.My code is:

What I want to do is to pass parameters from the browser to flash. I searched and seems like the best way is FlashVars. However, I have tried different codes and can't get Flash to detect the parameters. I decided to follow the example here and just copy and paste the whole thing (just changing the "main.swf" to my swf name): [URL]. The flash loads, but it only shows "param:" without anything else. I gathered that it probably is a more fundamental problem. (e.g. the way I am debugging, or some settings, etc.) I am using CS4 trial version AS3.
