I have an array of loaders loading .jpgs. After the Event.COMPLETE fires, I trace the content at the current page and it tells me the content is null, BUT on testing the images appear just fine. Here's my code:
Code:
for (var i:uint = 0; i<pages.length; i++){
pages[i].contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener( Event.COMPLETE, loadImg, false, 0, true );
[code].....
The title describes the problem: Loader.load() is firing the INIT event, but in my listener it's reporting loader.content as null. The description for INIT event is "Dispatched by the associated LoaderInfo object when the properties and methods of the loaded SWF file are accessible."I'm loading a lot of JPG images, and 95 percent of the time it works fine; the init listener fires and reports valid loader. content.I absolutely need loader.content available because I need to set the bitmap smoothing property to true.I've tried using Event.COMPLETE and it has the exact same problematic behavior.
View 13 RepliesI have a Loader class which I'm using to load an image:
Code:
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest('https://some website path to .png');
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, error);
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, done);

The code above works when I run it from FlashDevelop but fails when it runs from a website. The domain is protected by a crossdomain file which allows the website I'm calling it from. I've tried other https requests to the same domain using URLLoader and those work fine. This code never calls Event.COMPLETE or IO_ERROR and no alert error comes up.
I made a test where I download a file using URLLoader - something like this:

in the middle of the downloading process I physically disconnect the internet connection. the download stalls - but after aproximately 30 seconds downloadSuccessful is invoked, although only half of the data was downloaded. how can I make sure that the data to be downloaded is complete and correct?

It doesn't work because "updateNumCsrLoaded" is firing 6 times (twice per image) instead of 3. I could just change the if statement to "if (numCsrLoaded == 6)" but this is not
I load successfully an external image using a Loader class but every time i trace the loader.content property is found null.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to get a loader working in a flex web application, but it isn't responding to the complete event. Is there a change I should make to the code here, or some way that I can handle an error event to get more information?

I'm loading in a jpeg and sometimes the Event.COMPLETE is never fired. I have a ProgressEvent that traces out the bytesTotal and bytesLoaded... and it goes all the way up until the bytesTotal equals bytesLoaded... but randomly, the Event.COMPLETE is never fired!
View 3 RepliesI have a really simple class that loads in some XML and splits it into an array, but for some reason the URLLoader wont trigger the COMPLETE event.
Code:
package com.georgecrabtree {
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.net.URLLoader;
[Code].....
I've got a loader that I put an event listener on for Event.COMPLETE. I then add it as child of the stage and call the load method. The swf it's loading appears on the stage, but the Event.COMPLETE listener is never called. I can attach a MouseEvent.CLICK event to the loader and that works just fine.
[Code]...
I've one loader which load a png file. I used contentLoaderInfo to intercept COMPLETE event like this:
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.Complete, handler); The problem is that at the complete event I want to push this object into an array, like this:
function handler(e:event){
var array:Array = new Array();
array.push(e.target);
}
E.target is the reference to the contentInfoloader, while I need the reference to the loader itself. How can i resolve this issue?
I have confirmed to my satisfaction that the following code never triggers the Event.COMPLETE of var loader:
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest(contact_url);
var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
loader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
req.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;

However, it does in fact send the emails it is designed to send! Why doesn't it complete when in fact the work is done?
So, I'm trying to load resources, add them to a dictionary, and have a drawing method search through that dictionary and draw based on certain predicates. I have a function that iterates through an Vector of Strings, calling on an instance of Loader to load them instantiated as a URLRequest.
private function loadImages(urls:Vector.<String>):void
{
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
[Code].....
So the issue is: Only the first images in my Vector are drawing. Upon further inspection, I found that the completeHandler was only being called once (I put a trace in the complete handler to check). However, the Loader is invoking load everytime the loop iterates. I tried instantiating separate loaders for each resource, just to see if it would work, but I had no luck with that. Do I need to make separate loaders and event handlers? Or am I just not using Loader correctly?
I've got a custom Thumbnail class that reads in an image path, a label, and an index. The class simply loads the image and and onComplete it pulls the bitmap out of loader.content, assigns it to a public variable and then dispatches an event saying its completed.
I use these thumbnails in a thumbnail gallery and I don't build the gallery in until all thumbnails are loaded and ready. The problem is the COMPLETE event doesn't always fire for every thumbnail, therefore not allowing the gallery to build.
I used a ProgressEvent.PROGRESS to make sure the files were being loaded, and found that when the loads failed the loader still loaded the totalBytes.
I've also tried Event.INIT and its the same issue.
INIT and COMPLETE just don't seem to be either caught or dispatched.
Code:
public class Thumbnail extends Sprite
{
/******************************************************************************************

i'm loading in multiple images using the same loader using a for loop. what i'm trying to figure out is how can i tell when the first 4 images are loaded. is there away to attach and index to each loader and then get it from the event in the on complete function? below is the code i'm using:
[Code]...
I want it to return a MovieClip but only after a Loader has triggered its COMPLETE Event.
like so;
Code:
static public function loadBitmap(URL:String):MovieClip {
// create MC
// create Loader
[Code].....
but it isn't fool proof because the MC is returned before the Loader finishes loading.
I am having an issue with a class I'm working on. I currently load an image as a bitmap and store its data into regState:BitmapData so that I may make new instances of that image later on. When I test if I can use the loaded data at a later time with my newBitmapIntance() function, it says that regState is null. I'm lost as to why this is the case, since it works flawlessly to create an instance of itself in my loadContent() function.
Class so far For reference:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;

I was having an issue with a Flash AS3 SWF Preloader stalling in Google Chrome only, Mac or PC, when JavaScript is disabled. It's fine with JavaScript. I diagnosed that the contentLoaderInfo Event.COMPLETE was not being fired. The successful workaround was to use the ProgressEvent.PROGRESS to check when the bytesLoaded >= bytesTotal. This worked OK in a relatively simple Flash application, however I also have an MP3 player, using a loaded XML file, MP3s, a thumbnail and other images. I am reluctant to plunge into the same workaround without first asking the question - when the bytesLoaded >= bytesTotal IS THIS THE SAME AS Event.COMPLETE? Or could I be faced with an error when trying to access either the event.target.data or event.target.content (depending on using loader or URLLoader class as required) to get the object in question?

As you see from the code above I have a loop that loads images on each pass using the same loader. This works, however, it is looping too quick (I believe) and as such the "addBook" function that handles pushing these into an array is pushing them into the array in the wrong order. Two questions: (1) Am I approaching this incorrectly? (2) If not, is there a way to listen to the loader event so the loop proceeds only after the load of that image is complete?
I am using the VideoEvent.COMPLETE trigger to return my user to a selection screen once a video they have chosen to watch has finished... but for some reason the trigger fires 2 or so seconds into the video(45sec videos).

I am loading in binary files with the url class which can be quite large 10mb + and it works fine on my server but another server I am testing on it can sometimes not work. Sometimes it will not load the file and other times it will only load about 20% and it throw a complete event??? Then of course other times it works fine. This server is https maybe that has something to do this it?

I have a block of code that I want to execute directly after a url is known to be valid. What I mean by 'valid' is that the program has checked to see if that filepath actually exists. This could be accomplished by a COMPLETE listener, because after all, a loader couldn't finish loading its content if the referenced file didn't exist, but I want it to happen before any of the bytes begin to get sucked in. I have also tried the HTTPS_STATUS event, with a conditional saying "if the status is this [some non-error status number], then run this block of code." This would have worked great, except that different environments produce different network codes, and some even can't distinguish between errors and non-errors, just returning 0's no matter what. Because of this, I can't write a conditional that works no matter what browser....
View 1 RepliesI have created a player that loads video FLV files and plays them in a sequence. On loading the videos I retrieve the total video time by stream.client.onMetaData = ns_onMetaData;" and in an EnterFrame event I check whether the video playtime is equal the totaltime. If the video playtime is equal to the totaltime then the player loads the next video. Sometime, even if the video ends, the playtime and total time doesn't match. So to fix the issue, I decided to put an event cue point (END) at end of each video FLV. So whenever the FLV fires the END event, the player removes the current video and loads the next one.
Suppose the video total time is 44:00. The cue point is also at 44:00 in the FLV. So whenever the player gets the END event from the FLV then it loads the next one. Now the issue is, if I pause the video at 42:00 and wait for 2 sec, the player gets the END cue point and jumps to the next video. When I paused the video the timer says "42:00 of 44:00". The timer doesn't increase, that means the video has actually paused. But I still don't understand that why I'm getting the END cue point where the video has not reached the time.

View 1 RepliesVariable called "switch" has a boolean value of "false".Event.ENTER_FRAME event listener method fires, and calls method "onEnter()".Within the "onEnter()" method, the "switch" variable is set to boolean "true".My question: What is the best way to make sure "switch" variable is called, and set, only once during the ENTER_FRAME event?
Is it as simple as checking if "switch" is false, and then setting it to true... Does it matter that I would be doing the if() for every frame of the Event.ENTER_FRAME?
How can I access to an object who fires an eventListener event?
Let's say I have a mc:
var element = new MovieClip();
which has an eventlistener:
element.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, elementEventHandler);
[Code]....
So that is what I want to achieve... Recover the object who fired the event and then do crazy things with it (in this example, add another object in it).
pd: yes, I know I can directly use the var element in this snippet, but in the real code I'm generating the mcs in a loop, according to a xml file.
