i'm using a php file to send some data fromm db to flash via http_build_query(). The code here looks like this:
Code:
$user = mysql_query ("SELECT * FROM users ", $conn);
if (!$user){
die ("could not execute query: " . mysql_error());[code]...........
I'm working to gain some proficiency in communicating flash and php. I recently found this nice method to feed variables from php into flash. I'm using http_build_query() function in a php file to send some variables like this:

As you see, the code dynamically creates movie clips. The problem is that after I first launch the program (whether it'd be in Flash or the SWF) it loads perfectly the first time but after, it doesn't. If e.target.data.Count equals 1 in the beginning at first launch, any change I make to the database to change the value of e.target.data.Count is not reflected in the program.
Im working with this little sidescroller tile based game, im saving maps to xml file. But got this little problem. I would like to do something like this.
var currentLevel:int = 1;
var myMap:String = "map" + currentLevel;
var myMap = xmlData.myMap.tiles.text();
so i would like to put that variable to that getting data from xml so if my currentLevel changes its getting diffrent data from xml file. so is that possible to put variable to that xmlData.myMap.tiles.text();
I have two classes. See below.
What I want to do is pretty simple but I must not know how to do it. I want the URLFactory to create the Array and store it in the variable "dataArray" and use the Array in the Main class by calling the GetList() of the URLFactory class. What I have returns nothing...
Basically I need to set a variable equal to URLLoader.data (var something:String = URLLoader.data) so I can use this variable in other classes.

we have this variable from the internet, val(0), in a dynamic text field we can see a digit from this variable. but when we use this variable in actionscript and test it with trace, the variable shows as undefined.how can we make this work without it coming up as undefined??

I have a situation where I am reading a wide variety of data from an XML file, and if a particular bit of data is not there, I simply want to hide a button. Before I go further, all my XML data in and out works fine, that's not a problem.
If I have this node in my XML:
Code:
<name1></name1>
read it in, assign to a variable and check that variable in the debugger I get this:
Code:
Variable _level0.assocImageName1 = undefined
This is fine. It has no value, so it's undefined.
Now, if I do the most simple of If statements this check just doesn't work. I've tried something like:
Code:
if (_root.assocImageName1 == undefined) {
_root.linked._visible = false;
} else {
break;
}
Now the odd thing, is that with quotes ("undefined") or without, this doesn't work reliably. It seems to just run right past the If and perform the hiding of the button regardless.
Also, if I put something in the XML like so:
Code:
<name1>data</name1>
I get this in the debugger:
Code:
Variable _level0.assocImageName1 = "data"
And check for that like this it doesn't work:
Code:
if (_root.assocImageName1 == "data") {
But oddly enough, if I take the quotes off it does work. What's going on there? I thought you also had to always use quotes when testing a string?
I've written a class in AS2 that extends the Object class It's an abstract class for debugging purposes. The class is defined in an external .as file. The problem is that in an .fla file, after I assigned a variable to a new instance of the class, and I trace that variable, it comes back as 'undefined' The reason it's a problem is that I want to call methods on the instance of the Debug objectIn the .fla, I have the following code:
//import any external classes
import Debug;
//Create general application properties

How would I make an if statement to check if something is undefined

It monitors the sliders position, however, it doesnt track it. It only tracks it if i change it from onLoad to onEnterFrame.

I have borrowed the code from Tiago's web blog. [URL]. I have noticed a few odd things, and have tried to send off to Tiago himself but have not received any response. The first thing I noticed is the code seems to call for the .php file before it can load, so at times it will generate a "undefined" for both the quote and author. The second thing is, which may tie into the first, there seems to be the occasion where the code doesn't load the php file at all. The author and quote will be blank for a duration. And the third question I have is how do I get the text to fade out again after the fade in after an interval.
Code:
import caurina.transitions.Tweener;
var quote:Array = new Array();
var author:Array = new Array();
var totalQuotes:Number;
var rotateTimer:Timer = new Timer(10000, 100); //rotates the quote every 2 seconds for 100 times

I'm trying creating a flash navigation bar that can be edited via a simple text file. I'm able to load my different variables properly but i also want to give the user the ability to remove links. I can simply leave the variable from the text file blank and and have the text in the swf disappear but i also want to be able to set the alpha of the movieclip behind the text to zero when the variable is left blank. Alternatively, even if the user could simply set the variable to the string "Blank" and both the alpha of the dynamic text and movieclip would change to zero that would be functional as well. Here is the code i have so far.
NavLoadVar = new LoadVars();
NavLoadVar.load("navigation.txt");
NavLoadVar.onLoad = function() {

I have some xml and I am trying to filter it using e4x. My e4x statement looks like this:
model.config.source.fees..fee.(@min<amount).@amount
My xml looks liks this:
<flex><fees>
<fee type="credit" min="0.00" max="200.00" amount="6.00"/>
<fee type="credit" min="200.01" max="370.00" amount="10.00"/>
</fees></flex>
When the e4x statement is run, I get an error message:
Error #1065: Variable @min is not defined.
But if I change my statement to model.config.source.fees..fee.@min it will return an xmllist of all the min attribute values, so min is defined, at least in that statement. Why doesnt the original statement work?
why I am getting undefined every time I trace the following:
Code:
c = currentCount; //current is 1.
trace (eval("mcSlide" + c)._x);
trace (this["mcSlide" + c]._x);
I would think these would output, if I incrementally go through 3 slides, the correct _x for each slide e.g. mcSlide1._x , mcSlide2._x
without having to make my movieclip (from a swc) a global variableThe code works perfectly, but i'm guessing it's redflagging it because it's not a waterproof method.

The success variable traces fine but error_message is always undefined. Is it because the underscore is not allowed?
im pulling in an xml document. Ive pushed all the nodes in to arrays and have successfully performed calculations on some variables. Now, i have the arrays defined as _.global arrays, but when i try and trace them outside the function they are undefined. They trace fine inside the function.Is ther anyway of accessing these variables outside the function?this is my file, as you can see at the botttom i am trying to trace the variables but it wont work?[code]

A flash application in flash builder is currently throwing this error:
ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable is not defined.
Not telling me which variable it is that's not defined, but note there are two spaces between 'variable' and 'is'. and it gives me some more feedback as to what lines of code are having trouble, but those lines are all within the actual flash/mxml packages and not any of the files in my own project.
I suspect it's related to my php data/services, but I don't see what variable would not be defined. I'm not very familiar with debugging, so I'm not sure how to determine with it where the problem is cropping up.

I'm trying to change a static variable in the class's constructor. At the start I have:
public static var mainReference:Main;
public static var timerReference:Timer;
public var timer:Timer = new Timer(1000);
This is so my static functions can access main and timer. At Main's constructor I have:
mainReference = this;
timerReference = timer;
The problem is, the first gives no error when I compile it, but the second tells me Access of undefined property (timerReference).

Trying to augment the Kirupa tutorial "ActionScript Text Animation" [URL] to take an external text file. When I switch out the line:
text = "There is only one..."
with:
myLoadVar = new LoadVars ();
myLoadVar.load("davetextdoc.txt")
myLoadVar.onLoad = function (success){
if (success == true) {
output.variable = "text"
output.text=myLoadVar.text;
}}
I get the word "undefined" repeatedly loading itself. The text file is properly formatted (text=dave's text here...) I've tried untold permutations to self-solve.
I'm working with three files. Main.swf which contains navigation.swf in a blankmc, empty mc called mcContent where navigation sleclected materials are loaded.

trace("global defined as");

When I do a trace of loadFile_str in the first frame of monthlyreports I get a undefined. I have tried trace(loadFile_str) and trace(_global.loadFile_str). I also noticed that if I define the global on the main movie (it maintains the global variable, the navigation fla will not overwrite it).
