ActionScript 3.0 :: Load Listeners Through For Loop?
Mar 18, 2009
how I would be able to add listeners to the stage using a for loop. currently my code looks like this, it is being called when the document opens.
var i:Number;
for(i=1;i<8;i++){
thumbselect.thumb"+i+".addEventListener(MouseEvent .CLICK, images"+i+");
}
That is not working. I tried quoting the whole thing, that did not work. I did trace it like this: trace(' thumbselect.thumb"+i+".addEventListener(MouseEvent .CLICK, images"+i+")')
and the trace came out with the correct strings.

I have 8 movieclips on the stage: but1,but2,but3,..,but8.How do I use a for loop to add event listeners to each? I am trying this, but i'm sure its not correct:
Code: Select allfor (var i=1;i<9;i++){
but[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,onOver);
}

I am loading a XML of county data for western US states and assigning listeners to movie clips of those counties. The counties have names that are equal to the field named afips in the xml. I am trying to assign listeners to those movie clips as called through a for loop. The counties are children of the parent MC name all_cnt.

Would it be possible for something like this to happen?
Code:
addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, loop);
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, loop);
function loop(e:Event, key:KeyboardEvent) {
//do something
}
I get the error
ArgumentError: Error #1063: Argument count mismatch on Turret/loop(). Expected 2, got 1.

i have an array to load images with a loop, but then i wanted to get the names of the loaded images to add listener to each one... then i remember that all display objects in ActionScript 3 have a name property... then whenever i create a Loader object i can assign a name to it... but it does not work if i try to call the object by his name and add a listener... it only works if i put a conditional with the target name, so if i want to locate any of the other loaded objects for any porpouse it is not possible to me...

I think i am suppsed to use Event listeners or call on the sounds somehow?? Does anyone understand what i am saying OR have any tutorials or links to tutorials that i can look at with regards to calling sounds?

I'm trying to make a program that grabs info from a text file then uses the info in the file to assign where certain balls will rotate (eventually I'll configure it to looking like dots rotating around an invisible sphere)Now, I can do these two things separately, load info from a file and make blue balls rotate around given points... but I've been tripping up hard on making them work together, and I think my problem is in how I handle the events and events listeners to work with the code, you'll need to start a new flash AS3 file Then on the stage create a circle with the oval tool convert the circle to a symbol named "BlueCircle" and name the linkage class as "BlueCircle" then paste this code...
Code:
var longLatLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();

I am stumped. I have tried to load a comboBox with a for-loop to load k school names and can not get it to load dynamically. Here is what works:schools_cb.addItem({label:varLoad.data.school1});It manages to paste the name of school1 into the comboBox k times.Then, when I try:schools_cb.addItem({label:this["varLoad.data.school" + k]});orschools_cb.addItem({label:this.getChildByName("var Load.data.school" + k)});it brings up k blank entries in the comboBox.I am a poor teacher trying to make a signup page for our school's math contest

I am working on a gallery, the contents of which is arranged into categories and sub-categories. So, each category has a folder and sub-folders.
I have an xml file in the root directory which I'm using to create a menu. When the visitor clicks a button in the menu, the relevant set of images will appear (only one set at a time).
But, the thing I'm confused with is this...
If each sub-folder contains an xml list of images, should I
a.)load all the xml files right away? Into an array, for example, which will hold all the data? If so, How can I load xml files in a loop? And is this the right approach if there are a lot of files to include? Or,
b.)Is it possible to load the xml from each button and have it override the previous xml?
The code below loads an xml when the first button is pressed, but after that it does nothing!
Code:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;

I'm making a highscore table in flash using AS3, I have successfully got working code that displays the names and the scores but also part of my high score table it needs to display the users country flag. The images for the flags are stored on a remote server.
Now I know how to load in a single image and add it to my movie clip but things get very complicated when I want to load in 20+ by iterating through a loop. I've looked at many examples and just cant adopt the sample code to work for me. Anyway without a further a do here is what I have so far.

I'm creating a website using Adobe Flash Professional CS5. I'm trying to read the content of a text file with URLLoader.load(path) inside a for loop. The path changes every iteration. When I trace the data from the event handler method, it returns only the last path's text file's content. It seems like it's calling the event handler method only after the for has done looping.
CODE:
var myData:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
myData.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoaded);
function onLoaded(e:Event):void

I am trying to load multiple images by iterating through a for loop. For each image I instantiate a loader and send a loader request. I want to stop the iteration of the loop and cancel all loader requests sent, in case a user navigates out of the screen. How can I do this?

I'm using AS3. I have multiple swf files to load in an array, and then play them from a master swf file. I've found scripts that can do that, but I can't find one to continuously loop through the swf files. I need a script that can load multiple swf files, then loop through them all. This is for a tradeshow display that needs to run all day. They are large files, so memory is a concern.

I've got a weird problem that could probably be easily fixed if I weren't such a novice coder. I'm loading external jpegs into movie clips that are within a movie clip which is within another movie clip (because they are animated as a whole within the other movie clips). The XML loads fine. The "Image" class I've made up is defined. The attributes from the XML load into the array of images.
However, I can't loop through the movieclips to actually load the images. But if I define manually the movie clip loads it loads perfectly. Here is the code that loads the images successfully, but not 100% dynamically:
ActionScript Code:
// Define the Images Array
var ImageArray:Array = new Array();

i'm trying to load a bunch of swfs and attach them to a movieclip from the library which is then placed on stage.I'm able to do it, but for some reason only the last swf in my name is being added into my clip (from the library).Would anyone have any thoughts as to why this is happening?
ActionScript Code:
var swfNames:Array = new Array("1.swf","2.swf","3.swf","4.swf");
var l:Loader = new Loader();

I am currently scripting a Flash application at work which will pull data from an xml file (.jpg's and text) into template swf's created by our designers, for use in online product commercials, realty/property tours, etc. I am creating a loop which will pull data from the xml and load them with createEmptyMovieClip(). Here's the code:
Code:
_root.dynLoad = function() {
trace( "initializing dynLoad function..." );
for( _root.g = 1; _root.g <= _root.featLength; _root.g++ ) {
if( _root.g == 1 ) {
this.createEmptyMovieClip( "dynPic", this.getNextHighestDepth() );
[Code] .....
I am not the heaviest with actionscript and I can get the first two pictures to load, but after that the pics get loaded into the duplicated clip. I tried my hardest to get the else block to dynamically increment the "dynPicNew" ( ex. load it into "dynPicNew" + _root.g ), but I can't nail it! How can I get the duplicateMovieClip() to increment the load target dynamically?

I'm trying to create a slideshow which loads images dynamically from a folder on my server. The number of images in the folder will change on a daily basis, so I'm guessing that this needs some kind of array to predetermine the contents of the folder. The files will not have a regimented naming structure.
Basically, I need to display all of the images in the folder one by one and then loop back to the start.
Has anyone managed to do this before?
