pass variables from one flash file to another? Basically there's a flash navigator that has multiple links in it. Once clicked it needs to pass a variable to go to another keyframe in another flash file. I'm guessing the receiving flash needs to be able to receive a variable and if variable == a certain variable it goes to and plays a specific keyframe.

View 1 RepliesI've created a Flash Animation (CS5, ActionScript 3) and converted it to SWF. The flash animation needs the values of 3 variables (defined in the swf timeline) BEFORE it starts running in my Flex application. I've embedded the swf file using swfloader in Flex, but I need to pass the parameters from Flex into Flash before the animation starts. How do I do this?
The way I have my flex code setup below, the variables are not being updated. I get an exception every time it gets to the changeParams function because it can't find "Type", "Num1", etc.
Part of My flash code:
//These 3 variables need to be populated via Flex BEFORE the animation starts...
var Num2:int;
var Num1:int;

I have basic knowledge of Flash and AS3.0. Suppose i have a flash swf file(main.swf). In this main.swf file, i loaded another swf file(sub.swf) by writing the following code snippet in main.swf file as shown below:
var textLdr:Loader=new Loader();
var noteUrl:String = "AddNote.swf";
var noteUrlReq:URLRequest=new URLRequest(noteUrl); textLdr.load(noteUrlReq);
addChild(textLdr);
Now, how to acess the data present in main.swf into sub.swf.Note: Here data represents values/data stored in variables/objects of main.swf file.

View 4 RepliesI have created an external actionscript file, which is called from Flash with the command#include "my_script.as"
The question is: how can I pass variables from Flash to the external actionscript file?
I am trying to load an AS2 swf from an AS3 swf. The AS2 swf which was written long back, expects parameters from the timeline(_root). These were passed to it before from HTML using flashvars. Now I am trying to get rid of the HTML pages, by directly loading the AS2 swf from the AS3 swf. However, when I try to load the AS2 swf using the Loader class, the swf loads fine, but the parameters are not getting passed on.
I tried to add the query string to the url parameter I used in the URL request used for the Loader, but that did not work.(Adding URL variables as data to URLRequest did not work either.)
i like to know how do u pass variables from flash to another html. mine is just one simple variable.what i get from flash Help is using GET and POST(after declaring the variables)
getURL("http://www.macromedia.com", "_blank", "GET");
getURL("http://www.macromedia.com", "_blank", "POST");
is there another way where i can pass variables? like using:
getURL("http://wwww.macromedia.com?fid=",);
*fid is the variables.
I am generating a url from another application that looks like this: I am trying to pull the variable "mark" into a swf and display it in dynamic text box. The URL will change depedning on the user and I plan on adding additional variables to the string as well (lastname, state, age, etc).

View 4 RepliesI'm trying to pass variables representing name and email address to a swf file. The swf takes a picture with the users webcam and sends the image to save.php for further processing. Currently I have text fields for the user to enter name and email, but I'd like to eliminate them and add the info behind the scenes. Basically this is what I'm trying to accomplish:
1.Page loads and stores name and email address in variables(index.php).
2.I'd like to pass name and email address variables to flash to be included with the image the swf sends to a php file for processing (save.php)
3.Page loads flash content(take_picture.swf) and does it's thing.
I've got this working in a similar situation using Zend AMF, where the swf gets all the info passed back from another page accessing the database. Here I have the data I need without accessing the database. I've tried many variations using FlashVars, but nothing has worked yet. One thing I seem to be missing is when I publish the fla, there is no ac_fl_runcontent in the html code Flash publishes. And there is no <embed src=... either. This div is the body of the html file Flash gives me:
<div id="flashContent">
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="760" height="1000" id="take_picture" align="middle">

View 5 RepliesI have a flash movie which is a registration form for new players for a league. When I submit the information to the PHP file, the PHP file writes the data to a mysql database.
The problem is that it is writing the variable with HTML tags, it's not just the variable like firstName, lastName.
If I change the AS code to to write "text" instead of the variable it inserts properly into the database, just the text, no HTML tags as you would expect.

how to pass variables from the HTML the Flash is embeded to the SWF, but can I send text to a SWF from another HTML page?
Here's the setup:
On page one.html there is a SWF with a dynamic text box in it with the instance of "txtBox".
On page two.html, the only thing on the page (including code) is "hello".
I'd like the SWF on page one.html to say "hello" in the text box.
I have searched the forums and internet and nothing seems to work. It sounds so simple but the variables are not passing into flash. Here is the scenario:
On frame one of my flash file I have:
stop(); var sendLV = new LoadVars();
var recLV = new LoadVars();

I am trying to make a flash file open a specific xml file from a URL that is set in the php file. when a the page is loaded, the php file is called for the variable. you must use a query line in the URL....example : [URL]
the php file should see the 'folder' variable and use it in the url that i want to load the xml file from. Once the variable is set in the php file, i want to transfer it to the swf file without having to change the url that the user types.
Here is basically what i want to do....
i want to be able to type in www.mysite.com/test.swf?folder=MyFolder in the browser. the php file will check some stuff in the mysql database and make sure that the user's space is not used up.....i can do that part with the space. If the user's space is not used up, it will post a variable to the swf file to load the xml file with the 'folder' variable in the url.. example :.com/TheFolderVariable/thexmlfile.xml Once the variable is passed to the swf file, it will load properly.
I was trying to use the loadVars() and the loadVariable() commands but i cannot get the php file to post back to the swf.

This is a re-opened case because some goblins entered my house during the night and sabotaged my script Everything was fine last night. Everything ran as it should.
import flash.net.URLLoader;//------var myVariables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();myVariables.gallery = "nature";var myURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("xmlGenesis.php");myURLRequest.data = myVariables;var ulLoader:URLLoader= new URLLoader();ulLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,xmlComplete);ulLoader.load(myURLRequest)//---------------
now doesn't work. The php script is not being run. I have checked the following:
1. server is ON
2. no file names have changed
3. the php script works when I run it manually
The above code just isn't passing the value "nature" to the script. On the php side I have:
$gallery =$_GET['gallery'];
My question is not like the one I read because the context is different: Let's say instead of embedding a flash inside an html page with some flashvars, I want to embed it inside another flash or flex. How to set the flashvars in this case (using ActionScript 3)? So how to embed Flash in another flash and set same variables as it was embedded in html by passing querystring or flashvars.
