ActionScript 3.0 :: Can't Get The FlashVars Working
Aug 8, 2011
I went through many articles and tutorials and I can't get the FlashVars working.
I'm using the SWFObject to insert the Flash movie into HTML:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en">
<head>
[Code]....
But the aname variable doesn't exists in the Flash. Even if I loop through all the param values, there is nothing. I tried to add the "aname" into query and it's working. But I really want and need to use FlashVars.

I've been searching everywhere and I can't find a solution. I use swfobject and flashvars and whenever I use flashvars the dynamic text color won't change. If I put my variable inside the fla timeline, the text color changesHere is my setRGB code:
Code:
var c:Color = new Color(button4.txt);
c.setRGB(0xffffff);

I created a flash menu that highlight the current page button reading a variable coming from HTML. I've set a variable in the OBJECT and EMBED tag using the query string syntax, but I get identical results using flashvars. This menu is working perfectly in firefox, but it doesn't in opera or IE 6. In opera it only works if all buttons are vector objects (?!?!?!?):it doen't work if I import a PNG in the buttons. I've put an IF statement (I already tried to use the SWITCH statement with same results) on the very first frame in the menu movie.

i have a file named: 394354.html. In it is the following code:
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/s...ersion=9,0,0,0" width="900" height="900" id="LoaderExample" align="middle">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="false" />
[Code]...
That is part of the source in the LoaderExample.swf. And all I get is a "Parameter text must be non-null" error. I've alternatively tried the FlashVars method using additional <param> and <object> tags but i get the same error. What is going on with Actionscript 3? is this a bug? What am I doing wrong? Do the 5 or 6 tutorials i've read leave some important detail out ?

I created a same script of calling my flashvars in actionscript 3. But when I tried to display my flashvar in actionscript 2, its not working. I did the same thing in calling and embedding the swf. But it's displaying undefined..
Here's the block of code...
import flash.external.ExternalInterface;
import flash.events.Event;
var xmlFilePath:String;
try {
var keyStr:String;
[Code] .....
I was just trying to display the value of the flashvar. I tested it in the browser but it's still not working.

I have a flex app that I need to pass FlashVars into. It works great on desktop browsers(chrome, firefox, ie) but for some reason the flashvar is always undefined when i load it on my Android browser(webkit on a droid incredible).
Has anyone successfully passed flashvars into a swf on an Android Device?

I'm trying to figure out how to use FlashVars in ActionScript 3.0. I'm familiar with _root in AS2 but I've learned it doesn't work in 3.0. I've played around with LoaderInfo that I know should do the trick but I can't seem to get it to work. And I can't seem to find any help in any of the many threads and forums I've visited today.
So I'm putting my trust in you guys. I want my button ("button2") to open a link in another frame ("rightFrame") through a FlashVar. I'm quite new to flash and after much banging my head in the wall this is what I've come up with (obviously the _root doesn't work but if replaced by a hard coded url with http:// it works like a charm):

I used almost two weeks to search the Web how to pass some variable/parameter/Flashvar from one swf to another.I have a main swf file, let's call it "main.swf" and here in AS3 I'll call "comonent.swf" with some parameters.All this is easy if I call the component.swf from HTML, but I have to call it from another swf file.[code]My problem is that this doesn't work of course - the method in "getSwfParam" is only tuned to get the parameters if it's coming from the URL string from the HTML page. I can't use "component.swf?age=23" in my call from the main.swf, because it'll confuse AS3 to think that the wole string.IS THE flash file.I tried localconnection and sharedobject too, but I just can't get the sender and receiver part to work together.I only need to send some short codes to my component.swf to tell what it should do.Now I begin to question if it is possible it was in AS2, but now the _root is gone and everything got so d.

I am loading a child swf inside a parent swf, and need to pass variables from the parent into the child. I don't have control over the source code of the child, so I can't have the child pull data from the parent; the data needs to be passed to the child swf in a standard fashion, so that the child works just as if it were embedded in a page using flashvars.I've tried passing variables to the child as parameters on the URL:
var ldr:Loader = new Loader(); var urlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://mysite.com/child.swf?var1=aaa&var2=bbb"); ldr.load(urlReq); addChild(ldr);
This seems to work ok, but apparently Internet Explorer doesn't allow URLs longer than 2083 characters [URL]. I need to pass a fairly long string of parameters to the child which will likely exceed 2083 characters. So I'm trying to avoid passing the parameters directly on the URL, and wondering if there is any other way to populate the child swf with the variables that it will expect. Is there any other way of passing flashvars to a swf-in-swf?

In my application I often call to different web services, and because I don't want to hardcode urls to them in my code, I am passing urls to the services as flashvars.Currently I am doing it this way:
public var siteUrl:String;
public var gameId:String;
public function main():void[code]....
Where main is a function, which is called on application's creation complete event.This way I can call both variables from main file of the application but I want to access them from other files. (other as classes).So is there a way to create class with constants and init values there with flashvars so I can use them everywhere (after importing of course)

Recently a client was concerned that their SWF was "insecure" because the XML path was coming from Flashvars. This seems to me to be something that isn't really a concern as the SWF is only displaying images / text and a few button links. I can understand how someone could path to the swf and add a remote XML path in to add javascript to the button url targets, but really what damage could this do? Eg. they could change [URL] to this [URL] Obviously they could build a fake wrapper html file around this but I still don't see how they could do anything harmful with this. Am I missing something? My next question is what is the best way to go about preventing this from happening? So far I have in my XSS checking class:

It show begin nicely in the console window of Chrome, but it does not print the flashvars.

This works fine and I am able to get the string, but how would I modify the class to be able to return FlashVars?
I am setting the FlashVars using this:

I wrote a simple flash loader that loads external swf and then calls javascript function to show div containing flash. I need to pass flashvars to loaded swf. I have read that I just need to use query string when loading to pass variables: externalswf.swf?var1=val1&var2=val2
BUT there is a problem. External swf can be very big and I'd like it to be cached by flash engine. It seems it's impossible in case of url parameters ?var1=&var2=& because those vars often change.Is there other ways to pass vars into inner swf. (I cannot change inner swf and I know only one thing - it use vars passed via flashvars mechanism

Is it possible to pass flashvars via querystring to your swf file without having access to the html? Something like [URL]
I usually deal with flashvars on the html page, but in this case, i have no access to the html page. All my search results regarding passing querystrings all have some reference to the html so I'm trying to see if this is even possible.

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.
