basically sending and recieving variables from a php page. I want to be able to specify what my textbox on frame 5 says in the onLoad statement. Is this possible?
Currently the only way I have been able to get the text to display is either to use the textbox variable and declare that in the onload statement, or to put textbox.text = mylogin.message; on the actual frame.I doubt there is a way to do it, because the actual textbox hasn't be created yet, but if there were a way, that would be nice.

Im trying to make a simple pacman game and im relatively new to as3 but I have found its very similar to java.What I'm trying to do is build a class that will control everything my pacman does, so if I create an instance of the class I would want to be able to set the position of my pacman by doing something like this:[code]Then I would like this code to call the setXPos function to update a "pacman" movie clip inside the Pac class. DocumentMain.as - the class file for pacman.fla, this file will instantiate the Pac.as class and tell it everything it has to do to the movie clip (created in the Pac.as file) on the stage.Pac.as - this is the class that creates the "pacman" movie clip, controls it via input from DocumentMain. as, and shows it on the pacman.fla stage.

I have created some functions to manage timed pause/play in an animation and I am trying to make a class from them, but it does not work, the play() and stop() functions I use have no effect. The functions work as intended when not in the class.

package anim {

I checked that the functions are executed with the trace() and it is the case, so the problem really comes from the play() and stop() functions, and I do not receive any error at compilation or runtime.

I'm doing my company website. When a mouse event sends you to my services page I have 4 seperate blocks of text that fade in. So far I have the first 2 texts blocks fading in at the same time. I want to stagger the timing so the second block of text starts its fade in a fraction of a second later, and so on with the remaining text blocks. Below is the code I've used to fade them in at the same time. Is there an easy way to adjust this code to achieve the desired effect.[code]....
View 0 RepliesI am working on a card game.When the game initializes, 2 cards get dealt to the dealer and 2 to the player. Each card MC is created dynamically. When you hit the deal button, the cards are dealt, but all appear at the same time. So i figured i would try using the Timer class in order to delay each card so they are dealt one-at-a-time. Seemed easy enough, but evidently i am missing something obvious and probably embarrassing. The short, simple code, which i expected to be a no-brainer, doesn't seem to want to work. My ignorance with the Timer class isn't helping where i am going wrong or if i am way out in left field? I created a Timer that repeats 4 times(repeatCount). I was thinking that i could target e.repeatCount with a case statement and fire off each card. I can't seem to get it working though.
Code: Select allimport flash.events.TimerEvent;
import flash.utils.Timer;
var dealTimer:Timer = new Timer(200, 4);

I've been trying to switch from AS2 to AS3 by forcing myself to use AS3 on every project and never revert to AS2 no matter what the problem may be. Doing this, I've learned a lot so far, and it has shown me that AS3 has the potential to be much more logical and easier to manage, but every once in a while I run into a problem in which research doesn't prevail.
At the moment I'm working on a project that uses the Union Platform. My goal is to make all control over User1's "Reactor" API managed by a single class.
Anyways, I've ran into a very limiting problem that I can't seem to get by. I can't figure out a way to call the root object and be able to call it's functions from a class!
Here's one of the methods that I've tried (No errors were reported, but it did not work) -
main.as:
Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import net.user1.reactor.Reactor;
[Code]...
As you can see, I tried to pass "this" as a MovieClip in hopes that I would be able to use the MovieClip's class functions. (Which is most likely very nooby and completely wrong since it's probably not considered a MovieClip reference, but what do I know?) Everything is fine, except the swf does not go to frame 2 when readyListener() is called. No errors are outputted either.
Also, when I go to load another movie/audio from a button click, do I need to do anything with the old instance, or will flash take care of that??
Here's the class:

I am creating a text input control on top of the native TextField class. I am trying to make the input text field itself behave in such a way that hitting Enter when focused and typing, instead of adding a line feed, produces a kind of "submit" event from my control, clearing the "submitted" text input. The described above works quite well. My problem is that I currently rob the users of my control the simple line-feeding ability - instead of a line-feed, a "submit" event is dispatched.
Obviously my control is designed for sending text rapidly, but it is also multiline so I want people to also be able to insert newlines. Think of this as a chat text input control. What I thought about is, somehow capture Shift+Enter and make it behave as Enter usually does. This has proven to be absolutely impossible, and I know a thing or two about Flash Player.
Part of the problem is, Shift+Enter by default does not itself produce a newline (even though pretty much everything else that types in any OS, does) and I cannot patch the event - f.e. by setting 'shiftKey' property to false at capture phase so that the event moves on as if Enter was pressed instead. How to do this, sort of replicating a TextField entirely down to a caret and all?
