Could someone help me with this? I'm unclear as to why this bit of code won't work and my eyeballs are about ready to pop Is it not possible to assign a URL to a variable and then pass that variable back to the URLRequest? I'm getting two errors:1151: A conflict exists with definition movieURL in namespace internal.Warning: 3596: Duplicate variable definition.[code]

how to pass a variable from FLASH to PHP?I'm trying to upload an image through the URLRequest and pass a unique name for each file.( I want to store the name elsewhere and need flash to know the name of the file.)
Since I'm using the request.data for the ByteArray of the image, I read that I can't use the URLVariables to pass any other variables.
It is almost working, except for the filename.AS3 function calling the request and query string:
Code:
function uploadTheImage(GuidName:String):void
{
//create image
var stage_snapshot:BitmapData = new BitmapData(imgprev.width, imgprev.height);
stage_snapshot.draw(imgprev);

I'm using AS3 to get variables from a plain text file. The variables are loaded, and assigned as a variable in Flash.
Code:
var checkNew:Timer = new Timer(2000);
checkNew.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, reConnect);
checkNew.start();
[Code].....
So basically as you can see here, the gamertag is loaded from a plain text PHP file and converted into a variable. What I need to be able to do is tell whether or not that variable has changed (ex. 1 changed to 2).
Quite simply what should the code look like to include four URLRequest buttons in the same Actions keyframe. I'm working on a slideshow so the actions layer spans four frames. I've tried using four separate keyframes but no luck.
View 1 RepliesSo, i've got an request that returns variables count i0 i1 i2 etc.
I'd like to put them in an array.
var imagecount = evt.target.data.count;
for(var i = 0; i < imagecount; i++) {
image[i] = evt.target.data.["i"+i];

I'd just like to use the i loop number as the variable name. What is the syntax in doing so?
I this code a setup a button that calls a url request from another variable and that works fine:
var venue_www:String = "http://www....1";
var venue_url:URLRequest = new URLRequest(venue_www);
function venue_Click(event:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(venue_url);
vInfo.highlight1.alpha = 1;
} vInfo.venue.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, venue_Click);
But later on I have a function that changes the venue_www variable among other details. But my button won't update with the new url variable. I've actually also already removed the event listener and re-added it through the script, for whatever its worth.
function setInfo1() {// one for each venue
if (currentVenue=="ATL") {
venue_www = "http://www.....2";
}}

lately i've associated a class file (.as) to my movie and immediately after, when publishing the movie i got the following error message: 1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: URLRequest. as well as a couple of other related error messages: 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method URLRequest. 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method navigateToURL. when i remove the link to the class file, the problem goes away. also, i have checked the class file for mentioning of "URLRequest" and nothing is there.
I have a flash file that has an XML driven menuing system to select and play various FLVs. I want to be able to craft different URLs to open the swf and start playing different FLVs. (The others will be accessible from the menu once the sfw is opened, but I am looking to control what plays on opening, dependent on what link a user click.) Not really sure about the best way to get the selection into the swf.

I'm trying to pass the file name of an image upload PHP script into Flash's UILoader component. So when a user uploads their image, the file name of the file is passed to flash so that the image displays within the Flash UILoader application. Here's the PHP variable I'm trying to pass: $filename= ''; And here's where Flash's UILoader gets it's source (ActionScript 3.0): uiLoader.source = "freshly uploaded file.jpg ($filename)?";

I am using SWFObject2 and passing in a flashvar to the movie it is loading (preloader.swf). I can retrieve the flashvar in preloader.swf no problem at all.The issue is that I am loading another swf from the preloader.swf (lets call it loaded.swf) and I want to get the variable from preloader.swf into loaded.swf - but for the life of me I just can't work out how to do it.If I try and access the variable from the preloader.swf via loaded.swf I just get compiler errors because the variable I want in preloader.swf doesn't exist in loaded.swf

i have a "campus map MC" that is an attachedmovie clip linked from the library to a scrollpane on the main timeline. there is a "info balloon MC" in the "campus map" with a "close" button on the info balloon that hides the balloon.

I have several movies (movieA, movieB, movieC) that have a button in them that loads another movieb into the same level thus replacing them. My problem is that i need the movieB to start playing from a particular frame depending on which movie, a, b or c loaded it.
I'm trying to find a way of using variables to make it work or maybe just a simple gotoAndPlay function but with no luck. Can you send a variable via loadmovie function?
I am trying to send a value from one of my xml nodes (<marker>) by declaring it in a function 'showData' as a variable 'XMLMarker'. If I trace this value (XMLmarker) it returns the right data found in the node <marker> (which is 'myMarker_mc'). However, I need to tell the stage that myMarker_mc is a MovieClip...please see the 'PROBLEM' stated in the code below.
Code:
stop();
var placesXML:XML =
<places>
<place name= "Yogyakarta">
[code]....
why do you want a variable to hold the value in the node <marker>, when that value is identical for each node, ie. it is always 'myMarker_mc', so why not just directly declare the variable 'xmlMark' as myMarker_mc. The reason is; the value in some of the <marker> nodes will soon be changing to 'myMarker_mc2' - a slightly different movieClip which I may need to call depending upon which place @name is chosen.This is the new output thrown up by the variable XMLmarkers
Code:
<marker>
myMarker_mc
<myText>

I have a movieclip on the stage, and in that clip I have a button that is supposed to turn a global variable from true to false, but the compile tells me:

When I use this code:
Code:
function closeMSN(event:MouseEvent):void{
this.visible = false
Stage.MSNOpen = false
}
I know how to reference the movieclip itself by this, but how do I change the value of a variable on the main stage, from inside the movie clip?
