ActionScript 3.0 :: Image Map Linking - No Compiler Errors?
Apr 9, 2009
I've made an image map in Flash using AS3, however it does not seem to be working properly. The links only work in a strange succession. In order to click all the links you must first click the last link followed by the first link, then the second link. After that the image map behaves as it is supposed to. I'm not sure why this is happening. It complies without error and aside from the little quirk mentioned above, it works beautifully. I've checked and double checked the AS, even copied and pasted some code from one button to another to see if it would make a difference, but to no avail. I am using the code listed below:
[quote] button1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, callLink1); function callLink1 (event: MouseEvent) :void { var url:String = ("http://www.google.com"); var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest (url); try { navigateToURL (request, "_parent"); } catch (e:Error) { trace ("Error occurred!"); } [/quote]

I have been given an SWF to edit a link in the AS code. The fact is the SWF uses some XML that is generated (actually retrieved) by PHP code from a database. menuXML.load("/sub/page/dynamic.php?genre=" + genre); so the point is we can use the same SWF 'mainfraim' and fill them with different animations/sources based on the link provided in dynamic.php?genre=### Now, I've used Flash Decompiler Gold to extract all files in the SWF and can open it again in Adobe Flash to edit it. When done I enter CTRL+ENTER and there are immediately 4 compiler errors!! Errors:
1x < Unexpected 'if' encountered >
2x < Statement block must be terminated by '}' >
1x < Ecpected a field name after '.' operator. >
How can these errors be present, when the original SWF works perfectly??! If I don't manage to solve this, I'll have to find out how to create an .php file the SWF tries to use which can select the proper resources (from a database I guess) to show them (using ?genre=###)

I am having a problem that I cannot figure out. I have searched the internet, describing as best I could and I could only find one other person with the same problem as me and no one replied to his post. Here's to hoping someone knows what is up.My App was working fine yesterday, then I added a few lines of code to a class file. When I tried to test the movie, it wouldn't compile. It would just run through all of the frames flashing each control. It does not output anything to the Output window nor the Compiler Errors window, which is odd because even when it would compile before it would output some warnings to the compiler errors window.
So I went into the class I changed and commented out the changes I made. Still will not compile.Also, when I try and go and Debug the movie, it tells me "You cannot debug this SWF because it contains no Actionscript". I've tried researching this problem as well, but it seems that this problem occurs when people are using the Document Class. I am not using a document class. My actionscript is on the frames.This same problem happened for the first time on Monday, but by tinkering with files/settings, it was fixed. That is until yesterday when i made that change.

I have been lurking here for a while. Whenever I get stuck I usually search through forums and find my answers. This ones not returning any results... So I've joined up. USING: Flash 5.0 in Windows, no flex [b] Here's my issue:[/b] I am working through Lee Brimelow's [b]Click and Zoom 3D Carousel[/b] video and I got to the first time he goes to preview his movie at about 23:50 and I get nothing. No compiler errors and no images, just a black screen...
So I figured the XML didn't go through correctly. I tried playing with the code but to no avail... If anyone could point me in the right direction that would be awesome! My tutorial document is located in the Carousel folder on my desktop, files and images are all there.

Flash cs3 on Vista computer - Using Actionscript 3.0. When clicking the check syntax in Actions panel. I am getting a message that "This scripts contains errors. The errors encountered are listed in the Compiler Errors panel." But there's nothing in the panel. The script was working fine before I added a mask but stopped working after I added it.. Not sure even where to look as even when I publish the movie I'm not getting any error message to point me in the right direction. Anybody know if there is some way to have Flash tell me where the error is? The weird thing is if I create a new flash document and just put stop(); in the actionpanel, I'm getting the same message.

I have created a MovieClip with a custom class that has a dynamic text field (called "textArea"), which I want to modify by the Component Inspector, as well as via a custom method using: textArea.text = newText;
It works fine in all cases and there are no problems, but the compiler still wants to give me the error: 1120: Access of undefined property textArea.
The error doesn't appear when I remove the component parameters (so that it's just a normal MovieClip). It still works, even with the error, so I'm not sure why it wants to complain. Am I doing something wrong or is it just being bitchy?

In flexbuilder 3 for some mxml files I can purposely put in syntax errors and the compiler will seem to compile the specific page(but actually not compile it) or report any errors for that page. Is there any way that you know of to get the compiler to report the errors to me so I can get it to compile the page. I've tried rebuilding all and cleaning the project already.

I am following a code example in a book and have the final fla and as files, so I know the project works when fully coded.In the book, it tells me I can test the movie to make sure that it is working so far. When I do that, I get the error 1120: Access of undefined property.
The "property" is a component instance. If I take the example completed code and remove everything up to the point I am at, I receive the same errors, so I know it's not a spelling/syntax mistake.I have a feeling it is the Compiler in Strict Mode. But, when I change it to Standard Mode, then I get error 5001: The name of package 'com.foundastionAS3.ch12' does not reflect the location of this file. etc.
note:: attached is a file of the compiler when it gives me multiple 1120s.

using action script...
stop();btn001_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,showimage1);function showimage1(event:MouseEvent):void { gotoAndPlay(10);}btn002_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,showimage2);function showimage2(event:MouseEvent):void { gotoAndPlay(20);}
however movie is playing without stopping to "Listen" for a Mouse CLICK. Images placed at frame 10 and 20 should appear only when CLICK'd.
This code is straight out of Classroom in a Book CS4.

Its stated in adobe site that the Flash Builder 4 compiler is indeed 25% more performing than the previous Flex Builder 3 compiler.
How can I confirm that?
For example if I make a simple application on Fx3 and the same on Fx4, then how would I compare the compiler performance using my project?

[code]Whenever im preloading images, i get a NaN Error everytime. Sometimes all i see is a NaN error, not even load numbers like 89% or so. I got the swf online at url...If you go to any section in the designs menu (3d design, 2d design or webdesign) and click a image you get the script that gives the NaN.I only get NaN in Firefox, Internet Explorer just gives 0. But either way i would like to see percentages rather than 0 or NaN.

Yesterday I spotted what seemed to be a minor issue with having a linked image in a dynamic textField. Basically, this doesn't work as expected:
HTML Code:
myField.htmlText = "<a href="[URL]"><img src="image1.jpg" /></a>";
You get the hand cursor when you mouse over the image, but clicking does nothing, unless you inadvertantly click an invisible 1px border around the image.
I've tried:
Loading an external image (<img src="images/image.jpg" />)
Loading a bitmap in the library (img src="myImage" />)
Loading a movieclip from the library (img src="myMC" />)Using textField.getImageReference:
myField.htmlText = "<a href="[URL]"><img src="image1.jpg" id="myImage" /></a>";
var imageButton:DisplayObject = myField.getImageReference("myImage");
imageButton.buttonMode = true;
But absolutely nothing works. All of the data being loaded is from a database, and I've got a couple of lengthy methods in mind that I could use to dynamically attach movieclips with link references, but it involves edits to MySQL, the XML output and a couple of PHP files, as well as the AS.
After a creating a new test file from scratch, it seems that the real culprit is when you embed a font into the textfield. I initially tested a new textfield with absolutely no formatting and the linked image worked perfectly. As soon as I added a font to the library and embedded that into my textfield, the link stopped working.

For the music player that I've designed and am making come to life in actionscript 2.0, I'd like to have a custom made image be shown for the entirety of the song that it corresponds to. I've already made the images for each of the three songs, but now I just need to figure out how to make them show inside the player every time it's matching song plays. I should add, that I've made a default image for the player as well, that I'd like to be shown, whenever a song is not playing.
Additionally, there is a "Play All Songs" button that is already operational on the player and plays 3 songs in succession. How would I go about adding the 3 images to be shown consecutively, as each song plays? The way the button is set up, I joined all 3 of the songs together with a 3 second space in between, as a single music file. So the button contains only one file that plays all 3 songs, not a separate one for each of the them.

the project im working on is all database driven, there are no html files and all coding that is created is made by php then stored within a db to be called later on. now because of this i can't use relative links at all with anything i.e. images, videos and swf files.
so.....i am using swfobject to link to a swf file using absolute linking as shown in the coding below. but what i need to do now is link an .as file in my swf using absolute linking so i can call some arrays from the file.i have doubled checked to make sure my vars can be passed by local testing and it works but now i need it as absolute....is this possible?

I was wondering if anyone knew of a tool I could use to compile a swf from the command line.I got a project on my plate right now that calls for a game to be altered every day with a new configuration, features, etc.Thing is that the list of possible things that could be in there on any given day is quite large, and the assets each will need are big as well.So I'm trying to find a solution that will load the AS files, images, etc. for just the features that will be enabled everyday...without having to spend each day compiling a new swf from the authoring tool.

You know them flash decompilers - can they read your comments you leave in your code?Also, is there anyway to remove the comments if they can -- and can you somehow remove all whitespace and compact it so the swf runs faster, better, and is a smaller file?

I'd like to run the Flex SDK compiler toolchain on our FreeBSD integration server to get around some nasty things like having to check in compiled Flex artifacts (yuck, I know!).It's worth noting that we have and use the data visualization components under license, so we'll need support for building with those as well.
