View 5 RepliesI think this should not be a big deal, but I do not get it to work. I got a "MainFlash" witch loades an XML with about 60 variables (Settings), in base of a paramater then this "MainFlash" loades another "FlashMovie" and this one needs, all, the same Variables too.
How do I properly pass all the Vars in the new/other "FlashMovie"?
U need to know I use LoadMovieNum to Level 0 I do replace the "MainFlash", cause the new loaded "FlashMovie" can have a completly different height and width ( ...I don't think it's possible to change the Document-Setting in a compiled swf, or is it? If this is possible I would not need to load a separate swf to Level 0. the main SWF usually ist about 320x180, the following can be 2x, 3x bigger...
I have to pass some variables to the flash movie (movie.swf?var1=aaa&var2=bbb). never had a problem with using them before.I've read around a lot an tried different coding, but when I export the swf I got the error, that root is unknown...doesn't matter, if I use one of this
var flashvars:Object = root.loaderInfo.parameters;
var flashvars:Object = stage.loaderInfo.parameters; // stage is unknown here..
var flashvars:Object = MovieClip(root).loaderInfo.parameters;
var flashvars:Object = MovieClip(root.loaderInfo).parameters;

i have to separate swf's, and i need to pass a var from one to the other
initially i thought i could write the var to a text file (do this from the first swf) and then load the var in the second swf
is there an easier way? (i.e. i'm using getURL in the first swf to launch the second swf. could i pass it in that?)

ok so i have set up a register user page in my flash document and i'm trying to send the variables to a php document on my server which then puts the vars in a database. trouble is the variables dont ever get to the php. every time i add a user a row of blank variables are stored in my database and seen as i have had the php working with html forms passing the vars i am pretty sure this isnt the problem. here is my as3 code:

I've been trying to pass function variables from one frame to another for awhile now and looked at a few tutorials on how to do but I've had no success. I'm thinking my flash CS4 is bugged..... this will not work even though its supposed to...
(frame 1 on time line)
stop();
var transferText:String;
[Code].....
Even if I use trace in the same frame I cannot call the variable "transferText" while outside the function. It is always null in both frames. Like I said I pulled this from a few tutorials and others have said it works perfect but it won't for me. I've also tried using AS classes but the result is the same. I cannot call variables created or changed by functions.
BTW, I have no problem passing standard vars from frame to frame this works every time:
(frame 1 on time line)
var passThis:String = "I'm passing this.";
frame 2 on time line)
trace(passThis);
I am having a strange problem with my Actionscript not working in PC IE7. Everything works fine in Mac Firefox and safari. I am passing a variable from the html using swfObject, loading it in flash, populating a movie clips text field. However, the field shows "error" in IE7.
Also with the actionscript I am positioning the movieclip to stage right. When I remove that code everthing appears to work fine. However, positioning to the right is a must for my design. Why does IE7 act differently. I have spent way to long googling a solution to no avail. Can anyone shed light on this for me?

I have a bunch of nested movieclips. I set a var "foo" on the topmost clip. A child clip wants to know the value of foo: easy enough, i just call parent.foo.But what if I don't know how far down the tree the child resides in? Worse, what if foo changes every so often on new branches?My first thought was to simply add thisvar foo = parent.footo every clip, but this of course requires every clip have that line, or it breaks, and it doens'tus if a new child is inserted, or if a parent "foo" value changes.I was thinking that I could call a recursive function, where a child asks it parent, then its parent's parent, etc, for the value of foo along its particular branch...
function whatIsFoo(obj) {
if(obj.parent.foo==undefined) {
return whatIsFoo(obj.parent)

Is working fine, passing all the variables into the URL. The question is... why? I can't see any mechanism whereby getURL is given all the variables defined above. Does it pass in all local vars by default?
- in the parent.fla i created a dynamic txt box and var String named 'txt', this initialises the dynamic text box content to say "parent value".
- in the child.fla i tried to assign and send a new string value i.e. "child value" to 'var txt' which in found within parent.fla. At this point if everything was to work fine the dynamic txt box in parent.fla should output "child value".

View 3 RepliesI have 2 HTML files with embedded flash movies. One HTML file is the main area (main.html) with a flash movie called gallery.swf which has a grid of thumbnail pictures, and the second HTML file (popup.html) is a pop up chromeless window for enlarged images depending on the thumb's the user clicks. Essentially I need to pass variables to popup.html and ulimately its embedded movie enlarged.swf. These variables will basically be id's of the clicked thumbnails which I will use to locate the correct enlarged images on the server to load into into a container clip within enlarge.swf.
View 3 RepliesI'm struggling with my XML thumbnails gallery. The gallery itself is set up without a problem, nice grid of images created, including a listener etc. But then... In my mc.onRelease function, I can't the the node ID to pass through. And I really need it to so I can create the enlargement of the image. Here's my full code so far.

View 2 RepliesI have a very classic website with Flash built menu and HTML content. Now what I need is the menu buttons( which are Movie Clips actually) to maintain in their pressed position when a particular button from menu is pressed (which actually I did inside flash, but everytime new hyperlink is followed, the website is refreshed and new SWF loaded without button being pressed obviously).
I know this can be done either by Frames which I do not want or passing an argument in URL string from HTML when we call for an SWF object.
Sounds great, but I how do I pass different arguments to several menu pages, when i have only one SWF object and therefore only one hard-coded place of data or value where i can pass the argument in string ?
Do I need to divide my flash object to as many swf's as i need buttons and links ?
i'm passing vars from flash to php and trying to edit a mysql row from the db. anyone know php and can spot something going awry with my code here?

Why isn't this working as I am thinking it would:
var i:int=-1;
for each(obj in myData)
{

If I add i to an array (like myArr.push(i)) it will have 3 elements, 0, 1 and 2.
Is this possible? I have looked around but I can't really find anything.
View 3 RepliesI try to make a simple login. I use the code
Code:
function sendVars_login(event:MouseEvent):void
{
var scriptRequest_login:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://******.aspx");[code]...
when i send the vars i get back that user doesn't exists although i have checked that it exists.A funny thing is that when i change the following
Code:
scriptVars_login.u_pass = "somePass"
scriptVars_login.u_email ="someEmail"
I get correct results. So the .aspx script works and the way i'm sending the variable works. when i trace
scriptRequest_login.data
i get a url encoded string, so i tried to unescape the value
Code:
var unescapedString = unescape(String(scriptVars_login));
scriptRequest_login.data = unescapedString;
scriptLoader_login.load(scriptRequest_login);
now when i trace(scriptRequest_login.data) i get an unescaped value but it still doesn't work
I have a game here, and I would like to add event handlers to my buttons to change the time. I know how to do all this, I'm just having troubling actually adding the event listeners to my buttons in my .as file. I have a button named "btnEasy" with the Linkage as "btnEasy" as well.I am getting this error: "1061: Call to a possibly undefined method AddEventListener through a reference with a static type Class".[code]
View 1 RepliesI am writing a program that needs to go to a random frame after clicking a button. However, the program also needs to start on a random frame. When I call the function at the start of the program it gives me an 1120: Access of undefined property event error. The function is originally written as followed:
function randomMatchedTrial(event:MouseEvent) {
... lots of code that probably doesnt matter, but let me know if it does...
}
the program starts by calling the function as followed:
randomMatchedTrial(event)

I want to make a tooltip box , when I mouse over an object it will appear with the object color and some other data
how can I send the color param and other param to mouse event?
I have isometric tiles that are put together to form a map. Because the graphics are isometric, and the images themselves are rectangles (with transparent corners) I was wondering if there's way to pass a mouse event through image being clicked if it's being clicked at a point that is transparent onto the object that is layered below it. Using the bitmapData class I already know how to check if the position being clicked is transparent or not, just not the second part.
View 3 RepliesI would like to pass Parameters to a functions from a button click. Currently I need to call a function that in turn passes the Parameters.

This has been driving me nuts. The short of it is that I have a main movie that loads smaller swfs. In the main movie, there is a textbox that holds descriptions of the smaller clips.What I am trying to do is this: When the user clicks a button in the loaded swf, a string variable "feedback" replaces the text in the description text in the parent clip.Here is the code I have. I have been searching this for a while now and have tried various things, so this may be way off base. The clips load fine and everything, I just can't figure this one piece out.I am only showing the relevant code because there is a LOT of other working code.

Code:
clipLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener( Event.INIT, onLoaderInit );
