ActionScript 3.0 :: Get The File Name That Has Been Loaded?
Dec 13, 2010
I'm using this code to load a file...
Actionscript Code:
var swfLoader:Loader = new Loader();swfLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadProdComplete);swfLoader.load("MyNiceFile.swf");function loadProdComplete(e:Event):void {trace("Loaded File: " + ????); // I want to see: "Loaded File: MyNiceFile"}
How do i get the file name that has been loaded? How do i get "MyNiceFile.swf" -- or even better "MyNiceFile" .
I have tried this...e.content.name, but all i see is "instance32" which must be the temp name of the loaded file.

onRelease
_MOVIE-1.SWF.gotoAndStop (4)
or:
onRelease
gotoAndStop (MOVIE-1.swf, frame4)

I'm building a flash movie for something at work and im loading in some images using an XML file but when i use a preloader it only preloads the XML file (as in just the text inside) and not the images.
This causes the movie to start playing without having the images loaded.Does anyone have any ideas about how i could get it to preload the contents/images being called in the XML file so it doesn't run as soon as the XML file is loaded.

I am doing this so I can rollover the viewing window and have it appear. I cannot get any code to work to control the timeline (which is broken down into sections with individual MC's in each section.
What I am looking for is the code to apply to the buttons on the external swf file that has the controls to control the playing of the movie.

I have a flash file that is 1.5mb in size. As it takes about 6 minutes for someone on dialup to load this file, I have created a smaller swf file and loaded the larger one from it but I don't want the larger one to begin to play until it's fully downloaded. How do I set this up? I have set up the action script 2 as follows: loadMovieNum("top2.swf", 0);

I load a "cal" swf file in another swf files mdi_window. So the window is moveable inside the application. The issue is with the x y axis for the popups that open up in cal swf. The code for the function that opens popup is:
[CODE]...
The x & y axis of the popup act wired based on the location of the mdi_window in which the Cal.swf is being loaded. The x & y axis work fine if I move the mdi_window all the way on the top left corner of the application. The first image shows how the popup opens when I double-click on the 10:00 AM purple color event on my calendar.
and now when I move my window the popup moves to the side as well. I clicked on the same 10:00Am purple event again here: How can I solve this issue.

I have a folder containing some images named 01_image_name.jpg, 02_image_name.jpg, 03_image_name.jpg, ... wich names I read with a PHP script. Then I loop loading each image and waiting until all are loaded to display them
1. The PHP script reads file names and returns a string with names separated by a "|" char, then I use the split method to store them in imagesNames array and sort it2. I loop trough imagesNames array loading images3. Anytime a new image arrives I push it in imagesContainer array and check if all images are loaded to show them
The problem is there's no guarantee they arrive in the same order they were requested. So, how I sort the imagesContainer array by file name, i.e. in the same order they are in imagesNames array?

I'm loading data into a Flash application via XML, which is in the same directory as the swf file on the server, and would like to prevent the XML from being viewed in a browser. I was assuming I could set the XML's permissions to allow Owner and Group read and prevent Others from reading (UNIX 770), but when I do that the XML won't load.
I thought about using an .htaccess file but I don't want a password dialog to pop up when the swf requests the XML. Is there a way of doing this via permissions?

I am currently writing a site and one of the things it does is read variables from a database (by using the following code to access a php file which does the database lookup): loadVariablesNum ("loadvariables.php", 0, "POST"); This works perfectly, however following this I load a number of images based on the variables that are returned. i can't work out how to put an eventlistener, or something similar, so i can tell when loadvariables.php has finished loading. Then i can just load the relevant images in the oncomplete section (or the equivalent).

I am using the following code to load a SWF file into a Flash animation. The SWF file is nothing more than a short flv video (10 seconds). Users have the option of clicking a "HOME" mc if they want to return to the main menu before the flv video is completely finished playing.
[Code]....
When I click the HOME mc the lipStop.swf disappears as I intend and the animation returns to frame 1, but somehow I can still hear the SWF file playing in the background. I tried the samething using a FLV playback component and the same thing happens: timeline returns to frame 1, the image diappears, but I can still hear the audio track in the background.

I am trying to place a condition statement so that it will only do an action if the swf loaded into the varaible is the same or empty. I start of with loading the sample1.swf into the movieclip swf_holder
Code:
var loadSwf:Loader = new Loader();
swf_holder.addChild(loadSwf);
loadSwf.load(new URLRequest(sample1.swf));
loadSwf.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadComplete);
In order for me to get the sample1.swf to play, I create a variable so that I can just call on it

The main swf file of my site loads other swf files into it. Nothing hard there!But one of these loaded swf's has a number of buttons and what I need it to do is load aditional swf's into 'levels' of that file (not the main swf).I just can't seem to do it. Everything works fine but the swf's load into the main swf meaning they overlap areas that I don't want them to appear inYou can load into levels within a loaded swf.2) Does each swf have its own levels or do we have to use only one set of levels that are in the main swf.3) And if they do have their own levels, how on earth do I tell it to load into them.My AS is as simple as this;loadMovieNum("quail01.swf", portvar);portvar is a variable.As I say it works fine when testing it within this swf, but as soon as I use the 'main swf', it loads into that files levels.
