ActionScript 3.0 :: Loading External Movie With Scrollbar Component Produces Error
Oct 28, 2010
I have a main movie that contains a series of buttons that load different swf files into a loader component.
Each of the secondary movies contains a series of buttons that when clicked load a movie clip with information specific to that button.
Nothing earth shattering, right...
When I preview the secondary movie it runs as I would expect.
When I bring it into the main movie via the loader component and click any of the buttons to load the secondary movie's movie clip I receive the following errors[code]...

I have a game that loads most of the assets of the interface externally (swfs... pngs... mp3's .. etc). Most of this works fine, however,I'm having problems trying to load a SWF that holds a slider component and a few buttons (MovieClips).
Once I've loaded the external SWF that contains the component into my main game logic, I try to access the slider Component. If I dont specify a class type when I do this I get no problems, but if I try to insert it in a variable of type Slider It says it can not cast it.
This causes a problem:
var mySlider:Slider = externalClip_mc.theSlider;
And this seems fine: (Not specifying a class type)
var mySlider = externalClip_mc.theSlider;
The error message I get says something like this:
you can not cast fl.Controls::Slider@114e4041 into fl.Controls.Slider.
I also get the same thing if I try to dispatch a SliderEvent from my external SWF:
you can not cast fl.events::SliderEvent@114e4041 into fl.events.SliderEvent.Why does this happen when I try to access a component and not a member from any other type (int, MovieClip, Number, String ... etc)... ?

I have a SWF that I am running on a kiosk and the Actionscript is calling a PHP script residing on an internal IP address. As everyone always says, it runs great with the IDE, however when I publish this file and run it, I get nothing. I cannot even output errors and such into a textfield. I'm totally baffled as to how I can debug this.
Code:
//set up request and loader
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://10.25.241.11/custom/test.php");
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();

I have a flex app and I am adding a callback method like this:
private function init():void
{
ExternalInterface.addCallback( "playVideo", playVideo );
}
[code].....
However if I uncomment and run the alert first. I get no error and it works perfectly.My first thought was that the alert was buying time until the script could execute, so i tried to run the script inside a setTimeout() but did not work.

I am creating a full site in flash. The main movie has an empty movie clip in the middle of the movie to load external movies as the user clicks on the links. Everything has worked good so far as the linking has only gone 1 level deep. However, when I created a new external movie, and had buttons on it for another external page, but yet to open in the main movie, I can't get anything to work. Example.... In the main movie, the user clicks on the archive link, and the external archive movie is loaded into the main movie. Now, on this archive movie, there is a button on it that links to a another movie (say text effects.swf). However, when they click this button for text effects, I can't get it to load into the main movie clip and replace the archive movie that was currenlty there.

I am developping a player with Articulate Presenter and Flash. I would like to put thumbnails that are in a special folder in swf, into a scrollPane. The scrollPane itself is in a clip loaded when I click on the Thumbnails Tab.
Here is my simplified code :
ActionScript Code:
// I first preload the thumbnailsPanel containing the scrollPane
var thumbnailsPanelClip:MovieClip = completeMenu.attachMovie("thumbnailsPanel","thumbnailsPanel",completeMenu.getNextHighestDepth());
thumbnailsPanelClip._y = 35;
[code]....
Well, my problem is that the ScrollPane is not scrolling until the end of the thumbnails, so I don't know if all the thumbnails are loaded. And even worse, exactly one time on two, the Scroll Bar is not showing at all ... !is it a scrollPane pb ? I use it many times in other parts of my project without any problem ... or is it because there are too many thumbnails ? I have around 30 - 40 to load ..

Using the MovieClipLoader class, what is the difference between loading the external files into a Loader Component or into an empty movie clip. Will one be quicker? They both worked for me, but I've read using the Loader Component is better. Can anyone confirm this? I would think that avoiding components would make things faster/less file size.

I've been working on webdesign for some years now, having worked mainly in full flash websites with a lot of actionscripting. Thus I consider myself quite familiar with actionscript but only AS2 as I've still haven't made the cross to AS3 (I know i'm almost 5 years late...).I've been recently hired to convert interactive points on some museums that were working with dvd menu's to flash. I've constructed and programmed everything with no trouble at all using some programing to use a circular menu and the flvplayback component to load external 720P HD movies on f4v format. Everything was working perfectly until I was faced with the real PC's that were being used on the museums. Some of them are okay PC's and so I just had to reduce the quality of the videos a bit (a 20 mb bitrate was too much... lol).
However some of them are the equivalent of netbooks (like the Asus EEE PC) and that's where my nightmare begun.So the real problem is this: the computers can run the HD videos perfectly through the VLC media player. However, using the flash presentation either on flash projector or an swf running through an html on internet explorer results in an unwatchable video all sloppy and with buggy sound.I've even tried loading the videos inside a totally empty flash project which still resulted on the same problems.What happens is that when the flash loads the videos the system usage of the processor results in 60 percent with peaks reaching the 80 percent.The weirdest part is that sites like youtube that run HD movies work on those pc's but my presentation does not.Do you have any suggestions on what might be happening?? Is this a problem that has to do with the FlvPlayback component and that I could solve using the Open Source BetterFlv component instead?

I've got a few container SWF's that I"m trying to load a navigation and a content area into. Very simple, nothing fancy about the code -
ActionScript Code:
var bodyLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var bodyRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("./sub/games.swf");
[Code]....
And when I run it, I get the following error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
But the confusing thing is that I saved this from the same file that works PERFECTLY with the './sub/intro.swf' file, throwing no errors ... all I did is change the file name.

I am creating a relatively simple 10-12 minute animation. I've broken the animation into 34 different movie clips that I control on the timeline by using a timer delay.When I try to export them all together I get the error: ",Line 1: Error 5005: Unknown Error optimizing byte code."
However, when I split the presentation into two halves with the same exact frames and code I don't have the problem.I thought loading an external SWF at the end of the first movie would be a good way to connect everything. However, the SWF continuously loads and won't play through the way it looks when you open the actual SWF file.This is my code for the external loading:
var xpos:Number = 0;
var ypos:Number = 0;
var swf:MovieClip;[code].....

I would like to set height after I load an external movie into a movie clip.
For example,
this.body_mc.loadMovie("body_about.swf");
_root._height = this.body_mc._height;
I always get height as 0, because body_mc is an empty movieClip.
how to access the body_about.swf height as soon as loaded the movie into the empty movie clip?

I have an index called allproducts and I want users to be able to click on an element and load a new SWF (with several external .as files) that has specifics about that element.When I run JUST the element (SS_glutenfree.swf), it works great. When I run allproducts.swf and click on the gluten free button, I get: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at Handle()
at flash.display::Sprite/constructChildren()
at flash.display::Sprite()[code]....
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at Gallery()
allproducts.swf is in the folder above SS_glutenfree.swf and all of its .as files (which are Gallery, Handle, and Img).

I have a site that will load an external .swf for each menu button to display the content for each page. I have found tried several methods to do this and all at least create a loader and display the default .swf without problem.
Heres the code...
***start code***
stop();
var xPos:Number = 0;
var yPos:Number = 125;
[Code].....
Anyway I have no idea what else to try and cannot seem to find anymore information on the subject. Every description of the error just tells me that I haven't nammed something right but I have tripple checked every button and it looks right.

I'm trying to load data from an external text file into an array. I created an array and am able to load the data into an array if I explicitly say something like
ActionScript Code:
array[0] = event.target.data.uid1_name;
I can then do a trace statement on array[0] and it will output the correct name from the file. My problem is I'm trying to iterate through the variable names in the text file in the file by using an index variable. This is the code I'm using after doing all the URLloader, URLRequest, and so forth stuff:
ActionScript Code:
for(var i = 0; i<20;i++){
fArray
= event.target.data.uid_name;
}
This produces a syntax error. I've tried several other syntax variations but haven't been able to figure it out. I've also tried the following:
fArray
= event.target.data["uid"+i+"_name"];
fArray = event.target.data.["uid"+i+"_name"];
fArray
= event.target.data."uid"+i+"_name";
All three of those also give me errors. For the first one the trace statement outputs "undefinded" instead of "Doug". For the second I get "syntax error. Expecting identifier before left bracket". And for the third I get "syntax error, expecting identifer before uid.":
syntax to iterate the number after uid(uid1_name, uid2_name, uid3_name, etc)?
