ActionScript 2.0 :: Difficulty Loading Text From External Sources
Jul 27, 2004I have been working on my first site which is my personal blog and I am having trouble getting my external text files to load in my dynamic text field.

View 2 RepliesFlex :: AS3 :: Loading Bytes From Multiple Sources
Jan 2, 2010I am loading multiple images into a class instance and I would like to keep track of how large the complete amount of loaded data is at any given point.I have grabbed the totalbytes from my directory of images via a PHP script... but collecting the new bytes from the ProgressEvent on each image seems tricky for some reason.Let's assume that the totalBytes variable is correct and that I am totally unfamiliar with the way that ProgressEvent works.Does an event get fired every time ProgressEvent gets a new byte? If not, how do I keep track of the current total bytes?[code]
View 2 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: MP3Player - Variables And External Sources
Sep 30, 2004I have an mp3player that loads an external mp3 file and plays. It works just fine if the url/location is hardcoded in the swf file. However, I need to be able to have the url passed to the flash externally so that a number of users may utilize this single swf build.
Example:
Current location need to be filename.mp3 or [URL]. However, I need this location to be edited per use of the swf. In php i know I could call it such as:
$myLocation = "123";
[URL]
or
$myLocation = "[URL]";
(The "123" is what changes for each page use)
Here is the code i have that is working just fine. Until I need to use a full url that changes for each page the swf is use on.
onClipEvent (load) {
if (playing!=true) {
playing=true;
soundIsLoaded=1
myMusic=new Sound();
myMusic.loadSound("myMusic.mp3",true)
}}
Limitations:
1. Because of the server set up, I am always required to call items using full absolute urls/paths.
2. php, cfm, xml etc are not available for use with this. -- the goal is to be able to give an webmaster a copy of the swf and the code to embed it on their html page... and that's it.

Nov 29, 2009I have a class that loads data from a text file and puts it into an array called tdv.importedTxtArray (public var).In a separate class i have written [code]The infoArray does not then contain the imported text however because tdv.importedTxtArray is not given its popper contents until about 1/2 a second after the tdvLoader class executes (i.e: when Event.COMPLETE is run and the array is populated with strings from the external text file). Subsequently in the code above infoArray is set to a blank array.How can i get the code in my separate class to ''wait' until tdv.importedTxtArray is properly populated before accessing it.

Apr 29, 2009I'm loading some external text dynamically. Before I've always added the text to a textbox which is already on the stage. Now I'm adding the textbox with actionscript too but it's cutting off the exterally loading text at the height of the textbox (I know this because I am scrolling the text). There must be some property of the textbox which I haven't setwhat it is?Btw, I don't want to just change the height of the textbox as I am loading in many different texts of different lengths and this is affecting the scrolling.
View 3 RepliesFlash - Preloading SWF From Multiple Sources
Apr 22, 2010I have a rather big (34 MB) Flash CS4 AS3 swf being loaded as a whole into a preloader like
l.load(new URLRequest("sample.swf"));
What are my options to minimize loading time? Can I split the swf and load from several servers? I'm dynamically loading images from the library:
var myBitmapDataObject:myBitmapData = new myBitmapData(100, 100);
var myImage:Bitmap = new Bitmap(myBitmapDataObject);
addChild(myImage);
Right now I'm declaring/referencing every single image in order to get it included in the compiled clip. Any better way? Haven't got round to using Flex yet.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading External Text Via XML Or Other
Sep 5, 2010Alright. I currently have a site where I need to have daily specials load into either dynamic text fields or tfl which ever is easier. Right now I am using as files loading into dynamic text fields but to update it I have to open flash move that days .as files into the same directory and publish, I have to do this everyday. Whats an easy way for me to set the code to automatically load the files everyday. Like on monday the code goes to /monday/specials.as and then tuesday does the same....or would it be easier to have an external file where all I have to do is edit the text and not have to open flash move files and re publish everyday.
