How can I pass a string to an array?
What is the difference from doing:
Code:
private var myArray:Array = [{option: "MAR11 100 C", contracts: "-10"},{option: "APR11 100 C", contracts: "10"},{option: "MAR11 90 P", contracts: "-10"},{option: "APR11 90 P", contracts: "10"}];

How can I assign that "text string" to another variable and then pass it into an array?
I've got an XML file that I get the URL for my server from and also get the names of videos to populate a list.I can get the URL into a string in my program (it traces fine). when i try to pass that string in my nc.connect(string) it doesn't work. Everything loads fine, but when you click a video, it can't connect to it. If I manually enter the URL into the connect field like this:nc.connect("rtmp://url") it works fine.Why can it take the URL manually entered and not from a string?

How can I pass a string from PHP to Flash?
I need to pass this to flash[code]...
I am using Flash CS5, never touched Flex. Also the SWF that is doing the loading will be a client SWF, so hoping for a solution that could work with a simple couple of lines.
Basically inside the SWF I am working on contains just a simple string:
var theString = "theString";
trace("theString = "+theString);
Now I've been working on a test loader SWF that will load my String SWF and get the variable in the simplest way. Any thoughts? Below is my current broken code:
function loaderComplete(event:Event)
{
trace("... in loaderComplete");
getString = loader.content.toString();
[Code].....
I've searched on Stack and found similar questions, but none are exactly what I need:
tracking video files - embedding flv to swf
^ Basically what I'm trying to do as well, no answers yet
to pass variable from one swf to another swf in as3
^ sounded just like my problem, but answer was a Flex application example
pass var values from one swf to another swf who is loaded inside the firts one in AS3
^ This was close, but am not sure how to implement the chosen answer, also seems a bit more intricate then I need
Is there any way that you can pass a string to a function and use its value as the variable name you wish to change. For example.
Code:
var text:String = "Goodbye World";
function myfunction ( varToChange)
{
varToChange = "Hello World";
}
myfunction("text")
I created 4 buttons with 4 animations each, one for each state (using tweens), so I have that imense list of 16 "addEventListeners" (don't know if there's another way to do it). But everything is working as I would like.
The problem is that I'm trying to create only 4 functions to take care of all the 4 buttons and those 16 eventListeners.
This is part of my AS3 file (still with the "traces", 5 secs of animation to check the animations and all).

So, I want to pass a string variable to a SWF so that I can specify a XML file to load without republishing the SWF. When I assign the string variable to a textfield it is correct. But when I use that variable in the loader it does not display the XML from that file. You can see below that I commented out the string "lesson_11/images/0301_objectives.xml". If I put this string in the loader it works, if I use the string variable in its place it does not work. Can anyone see what I am doing wrong
Code:
var xmlFileToLoad:String;
var myQueryString:Object;

View 5 RepliesI'm creating a webpage where all the content is within the same swf. In order to get things to work I have all my different content in different MC's. Each of those separate MC's have two frames inside. One where it's empty and the other where the content is displayed. To make this work I have a variable name 'page'. My menu is supposed to pass a string to this variable and at the same time trigger a transition to be played ('doors' sliding over and hiding the stage).
Then the transition sets all my content MC's to the hide position. Then it checks what the page variable is and sets the corresponding content MC to show before the 'doors' open again. At least that's how it's supposed to work in theory. But I haven't figured out how to do all this. First off I don't know how to get my menu to pass that string to the 'page' variable. Here's my menu with the problem area marked:

I've made several comboboxes, and what I am trying to accomplish is add those values to an url and pass it.Example: In the first combobox I select year: 2009, second one I select genre: horror, third one I select language: us, which then should string those together and give me this url for example, "file.php?year=2009&genre=horror&language=us"I am working with an array, filling it with values and then stringing it together, but several problems arise, first one, I don't know how to skip the "&" for the first value.
