View 3 RepliesI have a flash movie that loads variables from a text file. I need it to be able to display plus signs. Right now they are omitted from display.
For example, if the text file reads variable1=1 + 1; Flash displays "1 1".
Is there a special way to store plus signs in the text file so they are displayed properly?

I have a problem with SharedObject. I created SharedObject using AS2.0 it's working fine.... my question is can it possible to store the variable values in an .txt file where the flash file is saved... basically the SharedObject will store the vallues in localdrive with file extention. not only using SharedObject if any other way to store the vaules in .txt file will be helpfull for me... my requirement is to store the the position of the swf file and when the time it reopen, it should start from previous position.

View 5 RepliesI'm using Flash 8 and I'm trying to load new text into a dynamic text box already populated by a xml file.
I have a home page with 5 different buttons on the top menu.
1. Home
2. News
3. Tips
and a few more.
Upon my home page loading, I have a dynamic text box with the welcome text which is populated by my xml file, here is my code for AS2:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
_root.home = this.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[0];
_root.tips = this.firstChild.childNodes[1].childNodes[0];
[Code].....
What I want to do is load the news and tips text into the same dynamic text box on the home page when the news or tips button is clicked, so I don't have to load a whole new swf for each category thus making the site faster.
What code would I have to use to clear the text from the xml file and how would I load my new text upon clicking the button?
I cant load and external text file into my dynamic text box...when i trace the loaded var it can be found, but when it's loaded inside the text box, the value that appears is really strange.i tried to load the vars into the MC and on a level, the result is the same, it can be traced but does not appear correctly on the textbox..the code i used is here..i made a text box with about_us instance name, loaded the variables and tried to load my text inside it by setting the text property of the textbox but as u will see...
loadVariables("about.txt", "this");
about_us.text = about;

am setting up a webpage with Flash MX. On the homepage I have a dynamic text box with links to the left (currently the links are just typed words). We want it to setup so that when a user clicks a link (such as "HOME") it will access text from a .txt file and load it into the dynamic text box. We want all of the links ("HOME", "PERSONNEL", "RECRUITS", "CONTACT US") to load their text from a seperate .txt file into that same dynamic text box.

I'm going to show a bunch of images in a slideshow.Since everybody hate waiting for things to load, I thought it would be a good idea to load all the images in the background while the user is clicking on other things. - user enters page-- design and menues are loaded--- the page is showed to the user---- images used in other parts of the flash-site is loading "behind the scenes".When the user finally open the slideshow, he/she don't have to wait for the images to load.This is my code:
Code:
function downloadImages(i:uint = 0) {
trace("- Downloading portfolio images");

I just want to load a .swf file withing my current .swf file as per the value the external text file.
I have done few experiments too.
1) I have writter below code on the first frame of my movie. here "myMC" is my target movie clip inside which i want to load another swf file.
loadVariables("myData.txt", "_root.myMC");
2) the code of my external text file is as below sm=one.swf;
Now my doubt is where and how i should write the loadmovie command to load my swf file.

I have an ASP.Net handler which returns to me all the file name of the images present in a folder in the server. Note that I'm an ASP programmer, not a Flash developper. It'll return something like that:
1.jpg|2.jpg|3.jpg|4.jpg
It's the same as if it was written in a .txt file, there's only text in the "webpage" source. The | is the separator in which I'll use a method to return a [] of string. However, the problem is how do I access it.
i followed the tutorial and got some other advice.

I would like to store a FileReference object somehow and load it when the SWF loads again. I tried to use the SharedObject class but it does not seem to work. I suspect that what I want to do is not doable due to security issues (not using Adobe AIR), but I wanted to check. Any way to store a FileReference object please and load it when the SWF is restarted?
View 1 RepliesIn my application I need to load PDFs dynamically and store each page of the PDF. Currently what I'm doing is converting each page to an image using some php code and then importing each image to flash, but I was wondering if there is a better way. Or is converting to images then importing to flash the best option?

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to load a text file and I've run into a wall. So far, I've loaded swf files, image files and XML files without problems. But the text files just don't seem to load. It's not a tough situation. The files are in the same directory as the application. When I run it, I see no sign that the file has loaded, but haven't found the error trapping to tell me what is (not) going on.
The code below was culled from examples on the web, they seem fairly consistent, and they are copied pretty much exactly. and I put them both into a single action to test them. Any clues as to what is not happening? I need to read an old txt data file that was used with AS2, with pairs of names and variables. The first example just reads a couple of variables. The second just reads some random text. I'm just trying to see what
works here, so I can incorporate working code into the real program.
