I have a problem I just can't seem to solve.I have an FLA .. (augmented.fla)I have a movieclip inside of augmented.fla with a class name of myMaterial that has the following code on it's timeline.
ActionScript Code:
var request:URLRequest = new
URLRequest("main.swf");
[code].....
I am using in AS3 "External Interface ". When I call the JS function that is on the same page as swf everything works fine.
I added a link in the html page to an external JS file, when I move the JS function to the external JS file the website crushes.
I would prefer to have all my JS functions on an external file so I can use them in the future in other project and it also makes it easier for me to update the site.
how to call a JS function that is on an external file from AS3?
I am trying to access a function in a loaded swf that has external class.. I would like to avoid having to put the function on my "Main" Doc class in the external swf and instead access the function directly from the class
This is what ive tried so far and it's a no dice:
private function startLoad(){
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("one.swf");

I have two files, the regular .fla file and an external .as file.Basicly at one point in the .as file I get information of what tag to send the timeline and play and have to use the function gotoAndPlay from the timeline in the .fla file.This is the .as file:
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.IOErrorEvent;
[Code].....
I don't know how to redirect to wherever I want in the timeline from the .as file.
Im going to make a page in flash as3, and now I have build the most of it. I will now load an external swf into the main swf, to save people for too must waiting time... my issue with normal words: I want to have a number of buttons. When you click on button 1 the first external swf load with a fade animation. Now when I would see whats behind button 2, is should animate the first swf out and remove it from the stage, to save wating time.... and the same should happend if i have 5 menu buttons...

I have this situation:
- main movie
- external movie
- 1 mc into external movie
I load the external movie into main movie and i want to put a gotoandplay() in mc of the external movie, to the external, like this:
[AS]on (release) {
_root.gotoAndPlay (45);
}
[/AS]
but it takes action in the main movie and not in external movie..
I have two files
main.swf & nav.swf.
In main.swf I have two frames on Layer1 "s1" & "s2"
On Layer2 I used the following scripts to load nav.swf
PHP Code:
loadMovieNum("nav.swf", 10);
Which works perfectly fine.
But on nav.swf ( external file ) I have two buttons on the stage. On the 1st button I have used the following script to go to "s1" frame which is on the main.swf
PHP Code:
on (release) { _root.gotoAndPlay("s1");}
I have used the following script to go to "s2" frame which is on the main.swf
PHP Code:
on (release) { _root.gotoAndPlay("s2");}
Which seems to be not working fine. I have also attached those two fla files.
The subject title pretty much tells it all. I've got a flash project where a video component plays an external flv file. I've got a different flv file loaded at each keyframe. Right now the flv plays and then it stops and waits for you to click on the next video you want to watch. I want it to automatically go to the next keyframe and start the next video.

Can you have a/s in the external swf that runs a 'gotoAndplay' in the main movie? I want the swf to be halfway through when the picture on my main swf changes.~ Seretha(I can't load the picture in with the external swf because they have to be unloaded at different times and the picture HAS to load on a level under the external swf.)

View 1 RepliesI have tried a number of different suggestions like using eventListeners and cue points embedded into my external .flvs. But, I still cannot get my code written properly to allow for the entire external .flv to play out, before it goes on to my following gotoAndPlay script.
View 5 RepliesI have a main swf that loads 2 external swfs. I click on button to see content of external swf #1 and see stuff. I do something that causes external swf to show other stuff (i.e. not at beginning state)
In the main swf I click on button to see content of external swf #2. External swf #1 content is made invisible and I see content of external swf stuff. NOW, if I click on button to take me back to see external swf #1, I see it's content in current state. I want to force it to start over again at frame #1 which will reset content.
However, no matter what I try, I can't seem to control which frame to go to in external swf using gotoAndplay.

Use Flash CS5 (and AIR, though this does not seem like it would be AIR related) in Win XP 64 I have a MovieClip symbol in my library with the identifier 'Puzzle10Piece10' with the following actionscript attached to frame 1 of the only layer with the following actionscript:
[Code]...
This runs contrary to my understanding of the pre-compiler and code execution order. In my way of thinking, any reference creation and related memory allocation is made when the object is instantiated, and indeed that allocation, unlike C depends not on code order (declaration before use), though this is an order that would satisfy even the C pre-compiler. If I understand the Flash compiler at all, it's not even a question of 'code order'... the symbol is pre-compiled such that for it to exist... for it to be instantiated, the variable would exist before the function would even be 'available' to be called internally or externally. Is my thinking way off, or is this a bug?
I'm overriding a protected function in a subclass.Let's say I have two classes, Apple and Fruit. I have all variables in place, this is just a simplified version.
[Code]...
Example is trivial. The problem is that the type of the getRandom function depends on its own type. One returns an apple, the other returns a fruit.Of course I get errors about override and coercion.
I've tried returning a Fruit instead of an Apple, but then the object is not an apple, therefore it has no Apple-specific properties.The problem is in ducktyping. There's a third class I cannot change, that executes the getRandom() function on each object, and I need the Apples to be something slightly different.
How can I override the getRandom function in Apple, so that it returns apples, rather than fruit?
Is it possible to override a protected function to a public.
View 5 RepliesHere's a coding question for the guru's I've written a simple function that will clear a form. I want to call this function from another function (4 of them to be exact). I could copy and paste code multiple times and everything will work. But where's the fun in that? There's something to be said about clean code.
For sake of explanation, the tween are working 4 layers that are on top of each other (don't ask )

I have an ActionScript program that I want to access some external JavaScript functions. By external, I mean that the ActionScript/swf aren't going to be loaded via the HTML/JavaScript. Everything I see recommends ExternalInterface, but that seems to imply that your JS loads your swf. Is there a way to call a JavaScript function by URL?
View 2 Replies"sayHi()" private methods and it's exposed though ExternalInterface.addCallback.As you know, i can't call that methods directly like below.

I need a function to load and play external swf�s.
I need it to load and play intro.swf into movieclip clip1 , when it is finished load and play about.swf into movieclip clip 2. when this swf has finished load and play outro.swf into clip3. the swfs contains proggressive flv. The function should be as dynamic as possible, cause i need it to control other videoclips in swfs as well.
I have a problem with my preloading. I have a flash file that needs to load 11 external swf's
So i have 11 MC's called Imgbox1 till 11 I am loading the external swf's with the function
imgbox1.loadMovie("1.swf"); This works correct but now i want to add a preloader to the external swf's and this is not working because when i add a preloader to it that i found in this tutorial :[URL]... Then the preloader is not running. I dont know why this is not working. What i also want to make is a custom preloader so not a bar or a percentage loader.
I have a carousel that makes buttons through a xml file.
Here's the xml code
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<carousel>
[Code]...
Now, I didn't write this as completly by myself. its a modified version from a tutorial.. (thats why the xml is formatted the way it is..)
Now it works fine and all. BUT, the thing i want, is instead od opening a url when one of the items is clicked. I want a swf open inside the window where the carousel is displayed..
(this could also be done by just new functions if its easyer that way)
If you press one of the items. A new swf (of a function is called) Which is plached on the position of the carousel..

View 1 RepliesI have a actionscript file and it tells a function in another actionscript file to run.How can I add an event listener to wait for the function to complete in an external file.
View 9 RepliesI have a main movie called "all" inside that I have to external swf's loaded.
1 called "content"
2 called "scrolledContent"
I am trying to communicate between "content" and "scrolledContent". The problem is that when I publish "scrolledContent" it gives me an error.
1120: Access of undefined property animation. animation.play();
This is happening because the mc called animation is in the swf called "content", so it is not there until its loaded into my main stage with "content".
I have an external log file which name changes each session, with the format XXXXX.log
I need to load it inside a swf to show its data, but each time the logs name is different, I need to open the .fla, changing the name of the file and then republishing the swf.
So I have made a simple script to load another .txt, to type manually in it the 5 number of the logs name and load it externally inside the swf:
Code:
var logNumLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
logNumLoader.dataFormat=URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
logNumLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadedLogNum);
[Code]....
While I cannot assign the value of logNum to the last function, the .log cannot be opened.
I have a main.swf that loads in an external swf called home.swf. I want to be able to call a function in main.swf's doc class from the loaded swf:
Code:
function loadArtist():void { // my function }
in the main timeline of home.swf I'm calling it this way:
Code:
function timeToGo(m:MouseEvent):void {
trace("button pressed");
MovieClip(this.parent.parent).loadArtist(); }
the home.swf compiles fine but when loaded in the main.swf & the button is pressed i get this error:
TypeError: Error #1006: loadArtist is not a function.
at home_fla::MainTimeline/timeToGo()
It seems that it thinks loadArtist is a property. Ack. I've got 3 objects loaded dynamically using addChildAt(mc, 0) ...

I have an external swf(s) loaded in a main swf container. I am trying to create templates for non-coders. The main swf loads "pages" based on the currentFrame number. i.e. if on frame 12 load "m1_012.swf"I need the function call to the main swf to be dynamic.The variable function call doesn't work in the following code. The last function call does work. How can I "eval" the variable function call?
var parentObj:Object = this.parent.parent.parent;
var tempFrame:Number = parentObj.currentFrame;
var funcName:String = parentObj+"moreInfo_"+tempFrame;
