ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading Object From File Directory?
Nov 24, 2009
C:UsersPublicMusicSample MusicKalimba.mp3
A preferred solution would be with actionscript alone (I know some things like this are possible with php etc.) and without prior knowledge of where the SWF file is saved at author time. And the finished product will not be in a browser because I know that there is no way around it like that, maybe an AIR application or something
I've tried some stuff such as
Code:
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(new URLRequest("C:UsersPublicMusicSample MusicKalimba.mp3"));
etc, but the problem is obviously that it cannot find this directory in the folder where it was saved

The web designer on a project is using Flash Gallery which loads a images.xml file. The SWF expects it to be in the same directory as the .html file. So if I am at the action /Public/Home/Gallery, it would expect the images.xml to be in at Public/Home.
How do I allow the Flash SWF to load the file? I have no access to the source code, so I cannot change the behaviour of the SWF.

When I have a class linked to a MovieClip in my library and that class takes an argument in its constructor method. That class will compile properly ONLY when it's located in my top-level directory (same dir as the .fla and Document.as files). If I move that class to a deeper directory, say com.place, and update the package statement and symbol link appropriately, the compiler will generate error "1136: Incorrect number of arguments. Expected 0."Create flash project and put a rectangle on the stage. Covert it to symbol and assign it to class TestPanel - or whatever you choose. Also configure the fla so that is uses a Document (Main) class.Create Main.as and TestPanel.as in the same folder. In the Main class, instantiate a instance of TestPanel and add it to the stage. Flash will, predictably, add the rectangle symbol and everything is fine.Now modify TestPanel so that its constructor method takes a Number and have Main.as pass some number to TestPanel.[code]You now get the error: 1136: Incorrect number of arguments.Expected 0.When I move the TestPanel.as into a deeper directory, Flash somehow is looking elsewhere for the base class for Symbol, even though I'm mapping that Symbol to com.place.TestPanel.

I have a main swf file and config.xml located in the same directory. My .swf file uses config.xml to fetch config variable which it does with success.The problem appears when I put those files into Flex directory. I embed .swf file like this.
<mx:Image id="loading" source="@Embed('/blobs/visualLogo/mySwfFile.swf')"
visible="true" horizontalCenter="0"/>
I also place config.xml into /blobs/visualLogo/
This time I get an error in Flex:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

I am doing some testing with various methods of deep linking in a flash site and have created a test site with the following structure:
/index.html
/simple.swf
/two/index.html
three/index.html
The index.html file located at the root of the site loads the simple.swf file using an absolute reference to the file (view the source of [URL]). The index.html file located in directories "two" and "three" are exactly the same as the index.html file in the root directory with the exception that I have added a defined a "base" parameter pointing to "../". [Right now, I am passing the same "flashvars" parameter in each of these files, however, once I resolve this issue, I will change the flashvars value.]
For some reason, the simple.swf file loads in the root level index.html file but not in the index.html file located in directories "two" or "three". I am confused why this is not working since I am using an absolute reference to the file. The only possible meaningful difference I can see is that the simple.swf file is only located in the root directory.

i'm trying to make a Top Score history for a flash game, which i load from an XML file. The problem comes to when i want to update the XML file. how do i do that automatically without prompting the user (ofcourse). I want it to be saved automatically to the same directory as the flash file.
here's my code right now, but it prompts the user where it wants to be saved, which i don't want to happen:
var xml:XML = <XML>
<topScoreList>
</topScoreList>

without having to hardcode a username / password in my .swf file (very easy to decompile!), is it possible to send a URLRequest for some file (perhaps .php?) to a loader object which can load assets that reside in password protected directories?my PHP skills are weak at best, so if calling a .php script is the solution.

My insuffiecient knowledge about AS2 craves some teaching: I want to know how to add an action to a button within my scene to make it download a file, which is located in the same folder as the .fla and exported .swf. In this case its going to be a .pdf, but I guess my main point is that I just want it to download the file. It should work in both Firefox and Internet Explorer (I don't know if the script has to be different or not?).

Trying to fix other peoples bad coding and I can not change the file structure but I would like to add a class directory and be able to reference it for buttons and variables. The problem is that the directory needs to be up 1 directory so that it can work with all the other files.
Also I need to be able to set it as the symbol property "linkage" class file so I can apply the class to all the buttons.
File folder structure:
Main folder
New class files
FLA files
Folder holding more FLA files
More FLA files

The powers that be have decided a project I'm working on shouldn't go on a website after all, but needs to be on a CD for Windows users instead and of course I only have a couple of days to made the "relevant tweaks" as they call them.It needs to run directly from the CD so I presume AIR isn't a good option.I've got all of it working by publishing to a Windows Projector executable. The bit I'm stuck with is allowing users to click buttons to open various directories which will be on the CD. These are source files for following tutorials from the main part of the CD. I've tried playing around with the various options in the FileReference class (namely browse() and download()), but they seem to be set up for use online only.

I have this function that loads an specific .log file:
function loadTracks():void {
tracksLoader.load(new URLRequest("/Users/Me/127.0.0.1,"+_logNum+".log"));
}
The logNum variable gets its value, writing it by hand in a separate text file, avoiding to open and editing the .fla each time the new .log has a different name:
logNumLoader.load(new URLRequest("/Users/Me/trackLogNum.txt"));
Some application creates in each session a new .log file with this file name pattern: 127.0.0.1,NUMBER.log // Being NUMBER the 5 digit changing part of the name, each time a new .log file is created. The newer the file, the higher this value is. how to make this script to autoload the last .log file, as it has the highest value in its name.

What methods could I use to save a xml generated in flash into the same directory as the swf file?
I know I can use "FileReference.save()" for flash player 10. But this has prompt window that appears and lets the user choose where to save. I just want it to automatically save in the directory of the flash file.

I have a bit of code that I want to change to make it save to the application directory. (the directory the application is installed at). While currently the bit of code I have works it just brings up a browse window for me to pick where to save the file. I want it to default to the application directory though.
How do I change it to do just that.
