I was wondering if there was a way to have an externally loaded SWF file have a button that can communicate to the file that it was loaded into. I have a bunch of buckets that I'm loading in externally that and I would like for each of them to have their own back button that tweens the content in the SWF off stage but also to have a movieclip in the main file tween back on.

wf which loads an swf into a movieclip called content_mc here is the code located in the blank swf
startLoad ("startPage")
var loadedSWF:Loader
var content_mc:MovieClip=new MovieClip();
function startLoad (SWFname:String){
loadedSWF = new Loader ();

I have an external swf called "lakefillpreloader.swf." It works, except when I put it in another swf, called lakefillwireframe. I get Error#1010 for the lines about ButtonMode and the EventListeners that gotoAndStop at different frames. What do I add to my code?
Lakefillpreloader:
Code: Select allclose_btn.visible=false;
buildings_text.visible=true;
//defines measurements, in pixels
const PANWIDTH:Number=10061

I'm having issues with an animation and need to get it functioning properly. I've posted two example/demo files to illustrate desired functionality.The main timeline (testMain.swf) consists of a loader, section/slide one content, and a button (bttnClick) set to load an external swf (external.swf).
external.swf contains two additional sections/slides and two 'next' buttons (bttnEnter with 'bNextOne' & 'bNextTwo' instance names) to navigate. When the second 'next' button (bNextTwo) is clicked I need the loaded external swf to fade out revealing the original main timeline (testMain.swf) and returning/stopping playhead at the 'slideOne' frame label. Does the external swf need to be unloaded even though users will most likely go back to it? What�s the best way to handle this?
If you could assist with the external swf fadeout to main timeline, the return to 'slideOne' frame label, and insight as far as the best way to return to the external swf.
I have a small problem with the security function. I have made a small banner there post a titel from a RRS feed. The RSS feed coms form extern domain. When I run the banner local it's work out perfect, but online it dosent works I use this code to permit the externe communication: Security.allowDomain([URL]);

I'm new on AS3, I'll try to explain what my project consists: Well, There is a main.fla and It loads external movies triggered by button items. The content animation sequence introduction starts with tweenLite and fills the stage with elements from Library (movieClips, buttons) and some sprites. I've built the intro animation through actionscript. Perhaps I'll need to explain how I did it the TweenLite structure, but the code lines are too long
The transitions / navigation:
Each button before load the external movie has a respective animation that removes the other buttons from the stage. It triggers an "outro" animation and then loads the External Swf.
First:
Each external Swfs contains a removeChild action in a MovieClip that CLOSES and removes the movie.. Like a "pop up" with a close action. After closed It should replay the intro animation and replace the buttons in the stage but it's not happening because I don't know how to communicate between different timelines / external movies.
the chat client application is created using adobe AIR, the application should be able to do communication sims like Google Talk and AIM does. If it is impossible is there any other solution to do that?
View 2 RepliesI have a communication problem between to SWF. Here is my code, SwfA is the caller :Shared interface between the 2 Swf :public interface ItfA { // some code} In the second Swf, SwfB, the document class :
public class MainB extends MovieClip { private var a:Itfa; public function start(_a:ItfA) { a = _a; // etc }}
In the first Swf, SwfA:
public A implements ItfA { var mLoader:Loader; [...] public function startLoad() { mLoader = new Loader(); var mRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("B.swf"); mLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onCompleteHandler); mLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, onprogressHandler); mLoader.load(mRequest); } public function

When I test in the fash environment (ctrl + enter), there is no problem, but in my browser it failes and says that A is not an ItfA (TypeError: Error #1034)

View 2 RepliesI recently made a mp3 player in Flash. I have an aspx page that has the mp3 player in it as well as a .net button which is disabled on page load. The .net page tells the audio player waht file to play and the player plays. What is supposed to happen next is when the audio player reaches the end of the file the button on the aspx page is supposed to become enabled. I am not sure how to do this [have Flash tell the aspx page that it is done playing].

View 2 RepliesI am not any kind of network programming pro, but it happened that I have faced necessity to develop socket-server on php (no way for using Java) for flash multiplayer browser-game (standard features like locations, team battles, etc).
The main problem is that TCP is point-to-point protocol and it completely occupies given port.Of course it is possible to create some kind of queue, which will manage connections to the socket, but this solution doesn't seems to be the fittest one.
It seems to me that using interval of "fair" ports (from 2000 to 2200, for example) is more fitting solution, because one request may take a lot of time to execute and players won't be happy to wait in queue.
But how can I implement this "port inteval" strategy?The solutions that I see are:
launcing php-script per every port (he-he, 2 hundreds of launched scripts!);somehow forking the initial process to new processes (2 hundreds of processed? Not nice too), one for every port;additional while-loop, which listens all the ports (looks very bad);using threading or something like that (the problem is that php is single-threaded, as far as I know; pcntl?).But somehow I don't like any of them, or at least don't know how to implement them in the best possible way.
What is the best existing strategy to handle multiple requests from multiple users per time unit without delays, and how to implement this strategy in php? We have our own Debian-server, so it is possible to use any required php extensions.
For example, if we are trying to develop chat application, we need some sort of fixed (I mean persistent) connections for each user. For example, we have 80 users in chat, and then one of them posted a message, which server tries to handle and send to all other connected users, also putting an entry to the history file or something like that.
In this situation polling server for new messages every 10 seconds from each of 80 users is craziness, so the need in persistent connection gets obvious.But I don't know what is the best way to implement something like this, considering that not all requests are handled instanlty.
I always have the trouble that make different classes communicate with each other.
1. using get set methods
2. eventdispatch to dispatch custom event.
Today, I am working on this confused issue again. I still can't get through it.this time what I wanna do is this: I wanna use a button (_zoom) to control a mc (_board) located in different class. Let's me give a simple structure for you:
ProjectAppear.as
|_ _board (mc)
|_ Project.as
|_ _work (mc)
|_ _zoom (mc)
My thought is I add a mouse event listener for _zoom, and then when mouse click it will dispatch a custom event..

View 1 RepliesI have two web applications written in Flex I would like to integrate. I would like one Flex app (let's call it application A) to invoke second Flex app (let's call it application B). Application A has access only to swf file of application B (not source code). When application A invokes application B, it should be able to pass some data to application B. After application B is invoked it should be able to pass some data back to application A. These two applications will be hosted on the same server, but will use different server code.
The easiest way of implementing this (or one of the ways to be more precise) would be to have UI element on app A (button, link, menu item, etc) that would invoke app B. But in that case, two Flex applications couldn't communicate directly (since only one is active at a time), and they would have to communicate through server code, which is something I would like to avoid.
In short application A should invoke application B, pass some data to it. Application B should do it's work, display some content, and have a mean of passing some data back to application A. I'm aware of LocalConnection, and I've seen similar question, but in that case I would have to have both application in the same browser window. This would be acceptable to some extend, but only if app B is contained in app A (not if they are both on the same HTML page). Would LocalConnection work in that case?
Do you have any recommendations on how to implement this kind of communication?
I'm working on a flash MMO with a c# server. I have a simple messaging protocol for the sockets. When a client joins he sends out this:
[Code]...
Im building my first OOP project with classes in AS3, Ive done a lot of tutorials and Im grasping the concepts well. Im just having trouble with the concept of communicating between classes. Whats the best way for a class to talk back to its parent once its instantiated? It seems when your inside a class, you're kinda stuck there as far as scope goes? ie one way street. Or am i missing something? Im used to the days where I was coding on the timeline and could just use this._parent etc. But obviously those days are gone.Or should I not need worry about this If I have planned the structure/heirachy correctly?
