ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading Array Vars Into A Button With An XML Loop?
Dec 10, 2009
I built this site out in as2 and have to convert it to as3. It appears the same logic flow and coding just doesn't apply since everything has changed on an event level. The idea is to load thumbnails dynamically and upon clicking the thumbnail retrieve the loaded variable (i) in the array per the XML loop. I'm trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong in logic flow as it keeps coming up "undefined" or pulling up the last one after the whole thing's loaded. I'd copy the exact code but there's a lot of variables. So I'll post this basic structure to give an idea of what I'm doing. The bold print is where I'm stuck in terms of getting a trace.

I have a class called FC. I want to automatically put all instances of it on an array. I think the best way to do this would be to use a loop. I would usually use a For Loop to automatically add code to object by having flashplayer run through the display list. However, instances of my class are not added to the display list. How can I automatically apply code to them?

OK I have defined a variable sayPHP Code:test="what should I do?" then I have a textfield with var name "test". Now when I play the movie it will display "what should I do?" in the textfield, but what if I put the textfield inside a button? It won't show! How do I change the actionscript so that it doesn't think that the field is in _.root??I tried this:PHP Code:button1.test="whatwhere button1 is the instance name of the button!ut this won't work

I'm just trying to loop this array, it works, I just can't get it to loop:
ActionScript 3.0 var videos:Array = new Array("videos/movie1.flv", "videos/movie2.flv", "videos/movie3.flv");
var currentVideo:uint = 0;
myVideo.mouseChildren = false;
function playCurrentVideo():void {

I've found a bunch of threads for AS2, but I just can't get anything to work. Not as important, there's a quick gap between the loading of each video when this runs. Can that be improved?

Okay, here goes: What I'm trying to do is create a multidimensional array which will pull text, swfs, and/or images from an xml file based on which button is clicked. What I don't understand is how to pull the swf or image file from the file like I have with the text. Truth be told, I'm completely lost and could really use some help fixing this. I need to pull text and images or the swf file from the xml depending on which button is clicked and I tried to put this together, but I've given myself a headache trying to understand where I went wrong.

I want to make an array that holds objects, each object containing an x- and y-value representing the location of each mc on screen. The mcs will not move. How do I reference each mc using a variable with a loop?
For example, if I have the mcs mc_0, mc_1, mc_2, mc_3, ... mc_49

But when the videos player is initiated, the first video is paused at the start, and a faded black screen overlays the video with a description of the content of the video.Also, there's a for loop that links each video of the array to a numbered button which also sits on the back screen along with the description, in case the user wants to view the second video not the first.Everything works perfectly fine as I want it, but I have next and previous buttons that are always there, so in case the user wants to go from one video to another, they can click next or prev.
I have been struggling with this for a week, and can't get it to work.I tried setting up a _global variable, but the prob is, the results of the XML array, gets stored in the for loop for the numbered buttons, and I don't know how I can get the next and prev buttons to know which video is playing and go through the index of the array to trigger the next or prev video.Here's the code that I have so far:
Code:
var videolist:XML = new XML();
videolist.ignoreWhite = true;

how can I do this trick and keep different vars for each mc?
for(var i=0; i<arr.length; i++) {
var mc[i] = _root.createEmptyMovieClip('mc'+i, _root.getNextHighestDepth());}

I have great difficulties with something that should be rather simpel to solve, but the problem is that I'm out of solutions to my problem.The buttons that are created from an loop that retrieves it's data from array's doesn't load the external swf, instead it gives my an 'undefined' output.I tried several different array constructions found on other threads, defined them differently, but it won't work.
Here's what I'm working with:
[AS]buttons = [m1, m2, m3, m4, m5, m6, m7, m8];
titles = ["BOEDDHA", "GELUKSHOEKJE", "GEUREN", "INTERIEUR", "VECHTKUNST", "PERSOONLIJK", "SERVIES", "VERMAAK"];
swfArray = ["products.swf", "products1.swf", "products2.swf", "products3.swf", "products4.swf", "products5.swf", "products6.swf", "products7.swf"];
[code]...
As you see, I made an Array of the .swf's, put the swfArray in a loop and tried to define them to the buttons with the onRelease function.

I have created a movieclip. This movieclip will have 5 child Sprite's, which will contain an image pulled from xml. I want to create a for loop to create those 5 Sprite's, add the appropriate image into each one (i.e., img[0] into sprite[0]) and then add each sprite to the movieclip.

I've created a loop to define onPress functions for a group of movieclips. The code is here:
Code:
var select:String = "none";
var elist:Array = ["dappled", "panda", "red", "blue", "green", "gray", "fire", "earth", "water", "garden"];
[Code]....
All the mcs now have an onPress function. However, they all define the "select" variable as the last item in the array. Is this because every mc is referencing the new curs? I'm not really sure... Is there a way I can fix this so select is given the correct (unique) value every time?

ok I have a load vars function that looks for a txt file and grabs data from it, right now they have to be in the same dir. I'd like to have the txt in the root of my server and then be able to link from any dir in the site...I have: ("dataValues.txt")what should I add before it, I thought maybe a full URL, but no, is it something like ("../dataValues.txt"), basically I want to make the link global for the site - I dont have access to the files right now so I cant just try a bunch of stuff myself.

i'm trying to fill out dynamic text fields by adding to my url like so:url...if the url could link to the html in which the swf was loaded instead of to the swf directly, that would be even better... but that might or might not complicate things (i don't know)

Someone here recently helped me immensely with a question I had about creating a previous button in my flash file that would allow the user to click on the button and view the previous swf file. I'm hoping someone can help me with making the Next button now, too.
I have a movieclip that loads an array of external swf files. I thought making the next button would be as simple as changing just a select few things to the previous button.However, that's not working. When I try that, the movieclip doesn't even load the swf files. Below is my AS2 code for my file. I bolded the part at the end that is for the previous button. Does anyone know how to make the previous button?

and a dynamic textbox called "myHTML". If I name 'var' on this textbox everything works fine, but I want to write it in actionsscript instead. Where do I write that? (I have 3 different vars in the text-file)

I have tried repeatedly to sendAndLoad variables from/to flash and php. The problem actually comes when passing the variables from php to flash, here is the flash code:
var dataOut:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
var dataIn:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
dataOut.username = _level0.usuario.ss.s1; //passing the value of textbox
dataOut.pass = _level0.contrasena.ss10.s10; //passing the value of textbox

I have omitted some mysql code, but it would still work this way. Which is most odd is that when I test the movie in my computer it works perfectly, but when I upload it to the server it doesn't work anymore.

I have it when the user clicks on a link it loads the php ?page=portfolio, in portfolio.php i have a peice of code that writes "var=portfolio.swf" to a .txt file Actionscript loads the text file and grabs the var, which is sent to the preloader which loads portfolio.swf. The problem with this is the Flash cache, you have to open a new window to see the portfolio.swf loaded and the second problem would be clients fighting over the .txt file.
What I want to do is, eliminate everything on the client side (the txt file) and make it so flash picks up the vars from ?page=portfolio and directly passes that to the preloader.
I heard this can be done with FlashVars, its kinda hard for me to understand could some direct me to an example code of FlashVars that I can play around with.

I have defined two variables,
Example
x = 2;
y = 3;
I then want to load both of these variables so that they will look like this
(2/3)
/ is just a separator not a divide operator!
I want to load these two vars into a dynamic text field called loadText:
_root.loadText = "WHAT DO I PUT HERE";

i am having trouble loading multiple variables into a multline textbox. I am using asp which will output a recordset into flash. For testing purposes var0 should equal three names in my array. Flash is only reading 1. How do I set flash up to read that whole array(3 variables in one textbox)? I know Flash won't output var1 or var2 because I don't have those textfields with those variable names.
Here's what var0 outputs

Here's my Flash code

I have a flash file which loads in vars from director. It then adds the values to a graph. The amounts from the string are inputed into text fields. the fields are named energy, waste etc. I want a textfield to output whichever sections that are over 5 saying "well done, you have excelled in water, energy...... I have got this working but am stuck on this bit: I am wanting to add an "and" before the last item, so it outputs as "well done you have excelled in water, waste and energy". Also if only one item is over 5 it wont add the "and". This probably doesnt make any sense, heres my code anyhow:
Code:
var summary_results = "2000,6,3,10,8,6";
var txtFields:Array = [Total,Energy,Waste,Water,Food,Transport];
var excelledItems:Array = [];
var theValues:Array = summary_results.split(",");
for(var i=1;i<theValues.length;i++){
