I have 3 buttons on the stage, all of them set in the library to have a base class of Btn.
I want to send a url link to each button so it knows where to go when clicked.[code]...Send variable to extended mc on stage?
I'm running into the situation where I can't instance a SubClass in the above SuperClass because the SubClass is extending from the SuperClass.
I get stack overflow. Fair enough, right?
Well, I want to add this SubClass to the display, and the only way I know how to do that is through addChild(). To addChild() I need to instance the SubClass.
I can't put any visual display instance or events in this subclass because it's currently null and extends is keeping me from doing so. It's great cuz I can share all the goods, but now I'm stuck dancing inside functions because I can't use events on the main "timeline" of the null SubClass.
All my custom classes that extend MovieClip simply trace as "MovieClip" when using stage.getChildIndex(i); I'm trying to search the stage to see what objects have been placed and then add them to the correct array. E.g. if I place 5 "Enemies" on the screen, I want to then add them to an array by searching the stage for the "Enemies" class, without naming each one and adding it manually in the code.
Edit:
Code:
for(var i:int = 0; i < stage.numChildren-1; i++)
{
trace(getQualifiedClassName(stage.getChildAt(i)));

I have 1 class (that is extending a UIcomponent) that is representing a component. In that component I create different instances of another class that is also a UIComponent but this class doesn't show up in de first class. I see that it is running and that it has the correct hights but I got the feeling that it doesn't show up with this hights. If I trace I see the width and height is 200 X 200 but there is still nothing visible in my component.
View 1 RepliesI brought a pre-built shopping cart and I'm trying to put some buttons in another MC but when I click them the cart don't update.
The original setup of the cart was:
The 'Add to cart' buttons are on the root and the cart was inside an MC also on the root.
Now I understand that it's not not working due to me moving the buttons into a MC.[code]...
I've got a flash course that needs to pass the current screen number from the course to the mySQL database. The person who built the back-end built a php page that I can pass the number to and it will get written to the db but I'm not sure how to "send" that in the background.He told me that I just need to call the index.php page like: [URL]So, would I use URLRequest for something like that?
Code:
var vars:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
vars.theData = data;
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("www.url.com/index.php/user/bookmark/"+slideNum);

I'd like to be able to generate certain data XML file through PHP based on variable that embedded in html page swf sends or request. I heard that it can be achieved by assigning FlashVars. I created a flash gallery which loads all content based on data from XML. However, I need to load a different content using the same flash gallery based in which html page the swf(gallery) is embedded. I can generate new XML through PHP if swf will send a variable to PHP which can be read as unique. I need to create a mechanism where the embedded swf send this unique variable.

Basically I am trying to send a variable from flash to php, I was trying to do it through the sendToURL function, because this seemed to be the most appropriate way to do this, although I may be wrong. Below is the AS.
var quizVariables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
quizVariables.party = "labour";
var myURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(".../partyhandler.php");
myURLRequest.data = quizVariables;
sendToURL(myURLRequest);
Once this is done it should cause the following PHP to run (which works fine if I manually type in the address eg .../partyhandler.php?party=labour)
$party = $_GET['party'];
mysql_query("UPDATE party SET $party = $party+1 WHERE id=1");echo $party;
however something seems to not be working with the flash element of the code.
i want to make a swf ecard. the swf will include an input text for a message + input text for sender email adress + recipient email adress.the swf will send variable to php with random name + email to recipience with message that inform bout an ecard sent to them + specific url.
View 2 RepliesI have a html form and when submit is clicked, my php processes the data. At the moment its simple, just one field displayed to the screen <?php echo htmlspecialchars($_POST['name']); ?>.Instead of doing this, I want to send the variable name to a swf file, and load the swf file with the name. I will use flashvars to do this. I have seen examples, and I think this one is used to display the swf onto the webpage, and pass the data to the swf.
<object width="540" height="240" title="sample">
<param name="movie" value="card.swf" />
<param name="flashvars" value="var1=here&var2=are&var3=my&var4=flashvars" />
<embed src="card.swf" flashvars="var1=here&var2=are&var3=my&var4=flashvars" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="540" height="240" ></embed>
I am not sure what it is really doing, and what I should change the value to in order for my name variable to be passed.

I've been trying to communicate flash and javascript some time now, but I can't get Javascript to send variables to flash, just the other way around. When the .swf is done loading, it succesfully triggers the "isReady" function in Javascript, but when i try to trigger the "sendToFlash" function in Flash(via javascript), nothing happens.
"thisMovie("myID").sendToFlash(toFlash);" this is the code I can't get to work, as you see I tried these to as well;
document.getElementById("myID").sendToFlash(toFlas h);
document["myID"].sendToFlash(toFlash);
nothing triggers the code.

I have an email form that I'm sending to a PHP script. It's basically two variables, one for the senders email, and one for the message. They are both within a movieclip called 'form', and they are working with this code...
on (release) {
// send variables in form movieclip (the textfields)
// to email PHP page which will send the mail
_level2.form.loadVariables("email.php", "POST");

I use level2 because this whole email form is being loaded onto level2 of my flash site.What I'm trying to do is to send the _global.var_name to the PHP as well. It represents a makeshift radio button selection....and when I trace it, it works.But either it's not sending over there, or I'm doing something wrong with the syntax, or I'm not receiving it properly.On the PHP side....I'm using...
$message = $_POST["message"];
$message .= "

And it isn't working.
