This is my case
1: I have two swf : a.swf n b.swf
2: I can't do any coding on a.swf but I can code on b.swf
3: b.swf loads a.swf
4: a.swf takes some params from html
5: Since b.swf now loads a.swf,how can I set loaderinfo params of a.swf from b.swf?
So is there any way I can set loaderinfo params from loading swf to the loaded swf.

View 1 RepliesI have a flash banner and embedded the flash swf the usual way. The flash banner has an xml file that loads in images.when published it views and works fine. But when I incorporate into my site it doesnt load the xml file. I believe it is because on the site i have friendly URLS. so when you are on the home page it looks for the file in home/images.xml.when you are in about page, it looks for the file at about/images.xml.I believe that i have to pass a param giving the absolute path to the flash file so that it loads.
View 6 Repliesis it possiable to make a condition in the flash params like wmode = transparent, but I want to do something like playback = "option1" then in the flash file it will play the frame label "option1" and so on, so i could use the same flash on multiable pages in differnt states.
View 1 Replieshave a movieclip on the stage, whose Class is "com.nestor.elements.letterKey". The class funcKey extends "key" which contains a "public var val:String". I have many instances of letterKey(asdfghj.... a full keyboard), so I'd like to use the IDE to arrange and pass variables. SO, within the Flash IDE/Library, I rightclick the symbol to access its component definition, and add a parameter for the var in the baseclass name:value,variable:var,default:whatever,type:Str ing).Now, in the constructor function for the baseclass, if I trace my variable: it is null.
View 1 RepliesI'm developing a flash file that that will be uploaded to dozens of websites which I have no control over. I found out that one of them seems to be gzipping the swf, which is causing loaderInfo.bytesTotal to be zero. This screws up the loading animation. I tried a workaround of just testing if bytesTotal is zero, if so simply proceed. That doesn't work because, as expected, not all the necessary data has loaded yet. Alternatively I can put a timed delay of whatever the expected load time is, and hope that it covers all the bases.
Does anyone have any other suggestions? Ideally there's an alternative way to define bytesTotal, but I haven't found one. FYI this is somewhat related to this question: Why loaderInfo.bytesTotal is Zero But I can't do the htaccess suggestion because I don't have control over the other websites, some of which may be on windows servers anyway.

View 1 RepliesI have a map of the US acquired from here (called U.S. Map). I am currently generating XML from inside an ActionScript file, and would then like to display this map using my generated XML as the argument. According to this, to do this in html would require the following declaration:world.swf?ata_file=pathname/filename.xmlHow can I replicate this behavior using the Loader from ActionScript? Right now I have:
var ldr:Loader = new Loader();
var url:String = "us/us.swf?data_file=senate.xml";
var urlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);

View 1 RepliesFor example: I have a function with MouseEvent.CLICK.Well.. Then I have two another functions with CLICK functionality too and I would like to pass params from these two functions to the first (and main) one.I am asking it because i am projecting a webpage which contains 3 buttons and two arrows.The 3 buttons functionality is done, it works perfect. But when I try to pass the actions triggered on the MAIN function (3 buttons) to the arrows functions (next and previous) I don't have NO IDEA how build it.

I have a parent swf that loads a child swf and attempts to pass some data into the child.
The process works fine if parent and child are located in the same domain (lets say domainA.com).
As soon as I place the child swf into domainB.com and try to load it, it will load in the parent, but it is not loading the values.
Crossdomain policies are in place (the child does load!), but the params are not sent.[code]...
I have an interesting problem that I'm attempting to solve and I could use some pointers.Here's a basic run down of the AS3 script:[code]The problem is that the event listener always pulls the url from the last object in the array when you click any sprite (as would be expected).What is the best way to have the event listener only deal with the specific url of the specific iteration that creates it?

View 0 Repliesi have a swf and i send parameter to this from html. when i load this swf directly to the html page, i can take paramters by using 'this.root.loaderInfo'However, i load this swf into another swf and i load second swf to the html. by this way, i cant take paramters using 'this.root.loaderInfo'. what should i do for this? what is the root and parent relationship between swfs that one within the other one.

As a part of a class I have been asked to place a preloader in front of my projects. I can't believe how tough this is. I get the best results when I use an URLRequest, but I want to understand the timeline.When I put a working preloader in front of my movie it doesn't start "ticking" until some middle point like 20%, or 70% depending on the file size of the movie. When I trace the bytes.Loaded it doesn't start counting until 700K or so.I have looked at several different preloaders and none seem to work as well as the tutorial. Can someone direct me to an "easy to understand" source that explains the loaderInfo / contentLoaderInfo class?
View 3 RepliesI'm loading an image with Loader class, adding a listener to its LoaderInfo object like this:
ActionScript Code:
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, ioErrorHandler);
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("myUrl.jpg");
loader.load(req);
Then of course I have a function ioErrorHandler. How can I get the url within that error handler?
The IOErrorEvent doesn't have something like a url property, nore does the LoaderInfo has one. Well, I just though of getting my Loader object back within the error handler like this:
ActionScript Code:
function ioErrorHandler(event:Event){
trace(event.target.loader);
}
But well... I get runtime error #2099. The Loader object is not available in ioErrorEvent. Do I really need to parse the url from IOErrorEvent.message?
how to use LoaderInfo.getLoaderInfoByDefinition(obj)??? Docs say it wants a "SWF File Object"... I tried feeding it a loaded movieclip. hoping to get the clips loaderInfo, but it simply returned the loaderInfo for the stage, not the loaded clip...

View 1 RepliesI have built a music community website, obviously members can sign up for an account, and upload mp3 files to their accounts.Once registration is complete, the php script creates a folder in the members directory on my server with their unique id, then when they go and upload an mp3, it uploads it to their folder and automatically creates a playlist.xml file for the song(s) I have a prebuilt flash mp3 player that I got from developphp.com, his as3 code calls for a static directory for the audio and xml, now since the flash player will live in the root, and the xml and audio will live in the members/$id folders, I am told to use flashvars and loaderinfo.parameters to do what I need, and that is to load the xml and mp3 files into the player for the profile that is being viewed at that moment, so lets look at what I've put into the html object and embed.
lets use profile #7
<param name="movie" value="flplayer.swf?<?php print"$id/playlist.xml" ?>">
<embed src="flplayer.swf?<?php print "$id/playlist.xml" ?>"> (please tell me if I have done this incorrectly)
now if we go to the profile.php?id=7 page, thius is what the page source looks like:
<param name="movie" value="flplayer.swf?7/playlist.xml">
<embed src="flplayer.swf?7/playlist.xml>">
now here is where I am stuck, as I said the flash mp3 player urlLoader and URLRequest, and I have been searching for days to figure out what I am supposed to do to get the player to pick up on the flash vars, here is the top part of the as3 code where it calls for the mp3 and the xml.
stop();
var myFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
myFormat.color = "0xFFFFFF";
list.setRendererStyle("textFormat", myFormat);
