ActionScript 3.0 :: If Statement Or Function For Embedding Xml Files?
Oct 22, 2010
so I am trying to embed xml files for a game based on the button I select. I assume I would need an event listener, however I do not know how the function should look.
Code:
[Embed(source="folder/jonesy.sng", mimeType="application/octet-stream")]
[Embed(source="folder/markysng", mimeType="application/octet-stream")]
[Embed(source="folder/John.sng", mimeType="application/octet-stream")]
The instance name for the button is "jonesy", "John" , "Marky". I would like when the user selects the button jonesy, the above code is activated.
If the user selects " John, or Marky" the corresponding embed code for those are loaded.
I have
Code:
jonesy.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, whichxml);
John.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, whichxmljohn);
function whichxml (e:MouseEvent):void
[code]....
this isnt' working though. Not sure what is missing, or if it just needs to be an IF Then statment.I guess embeds have to go on the intro frame, or first frame? But, the problem I have is that, I have so many embeds it is freezing the whole game.

So I'm trying out Ogmo Editor with FlashPunk and I've worked out how to load and display XML-based levels. What I want to do next is simplify the process of adding new levels.
Instead of embedding each individual XML into the source, what I want to do is create a single "World" XML file that'll include all the XML levels, embed that, and use it to store all my level data. That way, whenever I add a new level, all I have to do is add it to the world file.
I've done my research and I've found that there are ways of doing so - such as the !ENTITY keyword and XInclude - but I can't seem to get either to compile in FlashDevelop.

but the error I'm getting is that swfsrc is a relative URL.Is there a way to embed a relative url?

In the past I embedded several (with makers permission) youtube clips into a html web page (with the file stored on my server - mainly because I think it looks nicer). It worked fine. Now these were the old plain .flv low quality ones. But now I am trying to embed the newer higher quality youtube version, again, with the file stored on my server, and the embed code I used previously doesn't work. Now the new higher quality file is still called flv but it has a codec: mp4a
My old coding:
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="704" height="546"
wmode="transparent" data="mediaplayer.swf?file=xxx.flv&autoStart=false ">
<param name="movie" value="mediaplayer.swf?file=xxx.flv&autoStart=fals e" />
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
</object>

I wanted to know if there is a way to embed a pdf file into a flash document to be downloaded by the customer. I want them to be able to click on the thumbnail version of the file to start the download of the high res version of that file. I am making an interactive cd so the files would be stored on the cd itself. I know I could do it by storing the files on the internet but I would like to keep everything local

The Flash IDE is capable of embedding many types of uncompressed sound files, including wav, and offers optional compression when publishing.However,the [Embed] tag, only seems to allow embedding of mp3 files.Is it truly impossible to embed an uncompressed wav file,or am I missing some magic, undocumented mimeType?I was hoping for something like:
[Embed source="../../audio/wibble.wav" mimeType="audio/wav"]
...but I get no transcoder registered for mimeType 'audio/wav'.It's possible to embed wav or other format as an octet-stream and parse at runtime,but that's pretty heavy handed I think. I'm surprised that even though the Flash IDE can embed uncompressed sound data,[Embed] cannot, given that the swf spec can contain uncompressed sound data.

I'm wondering if there is a limit as to how may if else you can put in a function. I have a form that never seems to fire the last if else on the first load. It will work once I've run through the form, and all of the times after that, but never on the first try. In other words, when I test the form for the first time, if # 5 never kicks in. But after the form has sent, I can run the form again and if # 5 will work like I want it to. I did add .tabIndex to the form because it wouldn't originally tab the way I wanted it to and I wondered if this might be part of the problem. I also tried moving the if else statements around, but that didn't seem to make any difference. Does it only read 4 if's at a time?
Here's the code:
// add evenlistener for submit buttonsubmit_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, ValidateAndSend);
function ValidateAndSend(event:MouseEvent):void{
// if #1
if(company_txt.text ==""){
company_name_mc.gotoAndPlay("red");

[code]...
now when you first look at this code.. it looks perfectly fine right? .. well if you use this exact code and place a clip on the stage with an instance name of 'mc' .. publish and rollover 'mc'... the trace statement does not show.. is there something I never read about with respect of creating functions inside if statements??
I would think you could use the function name(){ syntax.. and not be forced to using variableName = function(){ syntax in creating functions inside if statements..

I am trying to make a dropdown menu where the user hovers over a bar it gets larger with more links then when they roll off it disappears. I am struggling to get my links to only appear when the menu is extended.. atm they show all the time. I thought it might be possible to have the btn function inside of the mouse event but it doesn't work.
Code:
import com.greensock.*;
import com.greensock.easing.*;
var emptyMc:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
function mouseMove(event:MouseEvent){
if(mc.hitTestPoint(mouseX, mouseY, true))
[Code] .....
I also would like to call an array at some point to go to the dynamic text field for my links.

In the main timeline I have this onEnterFrame function. I also have this movieclip and in it's own timeline stops at frame one. When this movieclip is rolled over it plays and then stops at frame 9. I'm trying to make an if statement in the onEnterFrame function that says when that one movieclip is on frame 9, delete the onEnterFrame function.
I tried to do this code, but so far all I have is
if (movieclip._currentlabel = "framenine") {
delete this.onEnterFrame;
}

I'm just trying to make a simple function that will return all the data from my SQLITE database as an array. But it looks like when my function is returning the array, the SQL statement is actually still executing... so it's empty... Does anyone have a suggestion? Or am I just going about this whole thing wrong.I know I could just have the event listener functions outside this function, and they could then set the data. But i'm trying to make a AS3 Class that holds all my SQL functions, and It would be nice to have everything for this particular function just in one function, so it can return an array to me.
public function getFavsGamesArray():Array
{
getFavsArraySql.addEventListener(SQLEvent.RESULT, res);

I have a bunch of event listeners that refer to different movieclips but trigger the same function.I have an if statement within this function that I need to trigger if the function is triggered by a specific movieclip.
ActionScript Code:
//movieclip stuff....
addChild(backgroundPoint);
backgroundPoint.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, animateBall);

I know I could just create two separate functions but the code within the function (not shown here) is fairly long and I dont like repeating code.

I can't quite figure out the small problem with the code. It seems to just bypass the first requirement of the if statement when I do type in the proper input and go straight to the else statement.

I dont want to copy the code from the first into the second and the first and second into the third.
My mind isn't working and there is probably an extremelly simple way to get this working.
I know I could used functions but for some reason it stops the instance referencing working: _root["bullet"+j] doesnt work in a function.

The Flash movie contains 2 Text files, one Component button, and 1 component checkbox.The purpose of the application is to load an XML file(works)Populate 2 text fields with information from the XML file(works)Compare the two text fields, if they contain the same information then the checkbox, via AS is told to be selected. (Heres the problem);
Heres the code:
Code:
runCode_btn.onPress = function() {
data_xml = new XML();
data_xml.ignoreWhite = true;
data_xml.onLoad = function(success) {
[code]....
The idea behind this app is that its an electronic form. The user fills it out, the information is then sent to a newly created XML file, months later the open the XML file in flash, and Flash fills out text fields and check and or unchecks Checkboxes based on the XML data.CheckBoxes are mandatory.But I don't see how I'll be able to use them if i can't create and condition statements based on the loaded Data.
