lets say that I call my flash that way
Code:
[...]/myFlashWithTwoArgumentsThatIWantToUse.swf?argOne=34&argTwo=someString
I've been trying to figure out how to retrieve them from the flash (in a class).
i have some actionscript that makes a
ExternalInterface.call('someFunction');
call.is it possible to reference the html object that made the call to someFunction directly using the ExternalInterface.call call?
Assume that the object that makes the call also has some Callbacks (via ExternalInterface.addCallback) that are accessible via javascript.
Currently:
Actionscript source
ExternalInterface.call("someFunction");
ExternalInterface.addCallback("someCallback",someASfunction);

I have a component that I hand over a function
public var func : Function;
Now the function is a function that has parameters in its signature
public function myFunction(s : String) : void {
doSomething(s);
}
from my component I can call the function with
func.call();
how to invoke the function with its parameters?
Way to call a function that DOES NOT accept arguments.[code]...
How about the SHORTER way to call a function that ACCEPTS arguments?
Is there any way to pass an argument to a function being called by a ContextMenuItem?The effect I want would be what one might expect from this pseudocode:
Code:
var cm = new ContextMenuItem("Start Alt", set_row_style('start_alt_here'), separatorBefore=true, enabled=true, visible=true);
Which obviously doesn't work, or I wouldn't be asking.So far I've tried using the captions as a basis for a switch condition, which works.
Code:
function set_row_style(obj, cm) {
switch (cm.caption) {
case 'start_alt_here' :
...
But I'd rather not use an arbitrary string as part of a function.The only other option I see is using a listener for each ContextMenuItem, then calling the function with its arguments from there.Is there any more direct a way to pass an argument to a function from a ContextMenuItem?
I need to be able to communicate between two applications that reside on the same machine. One is using Flex and the other is in C++. I would like to be able to call functions and pass arguments to each other. What is the best way to communicate between them?

How can I cancel the switch and make it work for any number of arguments?
1) Using the number keypad, the user pushes a series of numbers to an array.
2) Lookup() is called to identify which "code" has been entered.
Code:
myArray:Array= new Array(1,2,3,4);
lookup();
function lookup() {
switch (myArray) {

Is it possible to read HTML headers in AS3? The header contains the following meta tag:
Code:
<meta name="language" content="en-GB" scheme="rfc1766" />
The idea is to extract
Code:
content="en-GB"
into a variable (to control the language in the swf).

View 3 RepliesI have a text file containing html formatted text which I try to get into a textfield. All works fine locally and even on my localhost test server, but when uploading to the real server - I get a blank.
[Code]...
Basically, I have alot of text that needs to contain underlines and all that good formatting stuff that flash text can't do. So I created a dynamic scrolling text box, loaded in an external txt document containing all the right HTML tags for flash. But for some reason the flash cuts off the text. It won't show all the text I have. I noticed that it seems to be cutting it off in SOME (not all) areas where I have a hyperlink.

[Code]...
I don't want the spaces or the new lines that show in the text to show in Flash. In HTML there is no new line character between the two lines either.

I am doing an Actionscript 3.0 project which involves introspection. I am wondering if there is a way to get all the classes within a given package structure.
[Code]....
I try to perform calling of a javascript function from actionscript 3.0 thru ExternalInterface.call().I've seen a lot of online examples where the method works perfectly. But all downloaded copies of the examples don't work. Flash player can't call javasript due to the swf-html container security problems. I've already tried to set allowScriptAccess value from "sameDomain" to "always". It hasn't solved the problem.PS: browsers: firefox 3.6, IE 7.0s; flash player: v10.0
