when doing something like passing an array of movieclips to a function then trying to access the name of the movieclip (a[i].name) why does it give instance names instead of the names passed in.
Here is example code from a function I'm trying to use to enable whatever navigation movieclips i pass into it:
ActionScript Code:
function enableNavButton(a:Array):void
{
for(var i = 0; i < a.length; i++)

i can load xml, get what i want out of the nodes, attach mc's accordingly, etc. but i'm having trouble figuring out the best way to build a function for a button inside each dynamic mc that works correctly.I can build the function (which should load the corresponding variable's value for the array's position) but when the button is clicked it actually loads the variable associated with one array index position up.so if i'm clicking on the button that's supposed to load [0], I get the value for [1]'s variable. make sense?ode:
Code:
stop();
holderMc._visible=false;

I want to have an array, where each value is a function, where each function also has a set of arguments.
What is the correct syntax for setting a value of an array as a function?
Lastly, how do I pass arguments into the array's value?
Code:
var funcA = new Function(a:Number, b:Number){return a + b};
var funcB = new Function(a:Number, b:Number){return a - b};
var funcC = new Function(a:Number, b:Number){return a * b};

Plus, my movie is taking ages to submit, even though there is nothing on the stage. There are components in the library though. Would this cause it to take about 5 seconds to export to swf?

I'm trying to take a variable from a php page and send it to flash to then use in a link.I'm having problems just selecting ONE variable from the print function, the code will help explain:
PHP page
<?
print"fbook=facebook";
print"tweet=twitter-test";[code]....
It collects all the data fine but it does not print it out correctly, it prints out all the variables in the php in one link. For example: If i click the facebook icon, i will be taken to http:[url].... This also happens with the other icons (Youtube and Twitter).

i've got a scenario that i'm working thru on paper first and wanted to run it by everyone to see if i'm doing it correctly and most importantly, efficiently so, here goes...the situation | an instance of the DateChooser component reads an xml file which houses info for homework assignments and their due dates. if there is a due date, make sure that date is highlighted on the DateChooser component. from what i've been told, the xml file stores urls which will tell if there is s/thing due on a particular date.
[code]...
What needs to happen as soon as the xml file is loaded? i.e. do i call a function which parses the xml data and puts it into an array? then the DateChooser component iterates thru the array looking for boolean values noting if there is an activity or not and if so, on which day. if it finds one, it sets its highlight property to true for that particular day.

Im trying to use dynamic SQL tables on my PHP server so I need to pass the table name to the PHP script. I don't understand why the Data Management system that sets up CRUD won't allow this extra parameter. It says it can only have one input: item. I can get all records, but when I try to create, update, or delete I get an error.
Or is there another way I can pass the tablename variable to the php file before I call any functions?

We have implemented a Flash photo slideshow on our site and it works just fine for most of our users. Whenever the xml.load(success) returns false I have the Flash email me a debug report. For the life of me I can not find a common thread between all of these people having problems with the Flash. I don't think it's a cross-domain issue because it works for most people, and I have the crossdomain.xml files where they should be.

anyone knows how to pass an array values from an HTML into flash? Well, to begin I'll discuss what am I doing. I edited a twitter widget javascript which search tweets based on the hashtag I needed then passing it on an array per tweet and then displaying it using a <div> it updates once every 5 minutes. Now I want to display those tweets on a dynamic text on Flash. Let's say I will have 5 dynamic text placed on my flash file then; I want each of those dynamic text to have the tweets I have based on on my HTML arrays to be displayed in random.

I have problem with moving bitmap array on second timer loop. I think this problem is related to the loop addchild was in, not sure how to solve it. The current code does create 14 images in a strip, the problem was I couldn't move them with another timer or just outside the completeListener function.
Code:
import flash.display.Bitmap;
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
[Code] .....
TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.

I'm using this timer code for my game.
It should play 10 seconds and then go to the next scene.
PHP Code:
function timer(){
seconds=seconds-1;
if (seconds < 0) {
[Code].....
Well that works, but when I click on the play-again-button in the next scene, it won't play for 10 seconds (but less). I think the timer goes on without stopping. How can I stop the timer function when I move to the next scene?

Currently creating a game and having a problem with the enemy's shooting.Having a problem with a function which allows the enemys to periodically shoot at the ship. At the moment I have got one ship firing and the other 2 wont fire at all. I have done some edit's to the code and I have managed to make it so all 3 ships fire but there is no gap inbetween the bombs being fired (which eventually makes the game crash.)I have the variable defined at the top:

In my game I've got a scene where you get 3 seconds to click a button otherwise its Game Over, only problem is my code only works if I press the button straight away.
During some testing I was waiting 2 seconds then pressing the button, but when I go to the next part of the game, it will carry on to GameOver as if the Timer has not stopped.[code]...

have images play automatically when you don't click on PREV or NEXT buttons in a gallery for a certain amount of time.
I've used the TIMER function, but found that, when I click on PREV or NEXT, the timer would be activated again on that picture, which messes up the entire browsing experience.
