ActionScript 3.0 :: Use A Link To Execute A Function In A SWF?
Nov 24, 2009
In the Actionscript 3.0 Language and Components Reference > All Classes > TextField Class > Properties > htmlText HTML tags supported table, the description of the anchor tag has this sentence: "You can use the link event to cause the link to execute an ActionScript function in a SWF file instead of opening a URL." I don't understand how to do this. Can someone tell me how to do this? Or, can someone point me to an example or reference that explains how to execute an ActionScript function in a SWF file using the link event?

I have a Flash application that receives data from a php application in xml format. Would it be possible for me to call functions in flash that it receives in xml format?
Let's say the php application sends this:-
<data>
<command>gotoAndStop(15)</command>
</data>
Would I be able to get that function executed in the Flash application?

make function execute only once per second in ActionScript 2.0? As always I'll start from example to explain my problem...I have aprox. 15 buttons on my stageand all of them are calling the same function, but with different arguments. This function executes some effects, that lasts for 1 second. If someone will click on that buttons more often, than once per second, that will look horribleI can disable that button, what was pressed, but this will not solve the problem, be cause someone in a hurry can click another button

I would like to download a function as a string from my server into a Flash swf-document on the computer of a customer. So this download would be executed client-side. Then I would like to 'execute' the string, just as I do with the 'eval'-function in php/javascript.The important thing here is that the function is not stored client-side on the harddisk (like the swf-document) and that the function only remains in the computer memory.

I am struggling trying to put together two or three tutorials in order to make a photo gallery with numbers as the navigation to work. I am almost there, the problem is that in addition to the numbers as navigation I also wanted to have the option to change the images using a previous and next button. Here is a link of what I am trying to do:
[URL]
The reason the previous and next buttons don't work is because their functions are within a main function that is called onRelease of one the number buttons. Once you click the numbers, the previous and next start to work.
My question would be if there is a way to auto execute the function DisplayInfo as the XML file loads. See code Below:
Code:
var item_spacing = 20;// how far menu items are spaced vertically
var item_count = 0;// counts menu items as they are added from the XML
function loadXML(loaded) {
[Code]....

I was wondering if you can make an eventlistener to trigger to execute a function when the window/tab viewing the swf is closed. I searched around, and there seems to be a way to do this with flash.external class and javascript, but some users have javascript disabled, so is there a way to achieve this without javascript?

I have some code that calls multiple functions for a single movie clip during a single event. For example:
portfolioButton.onPress = function()
{
redClip.easeX(180, speed);
redClip.easeHeight(194, speed);
}
The problem is only the first function call works (redClip.easeX(180, speed)). Is there a way for both function calls to execute?

I've always wanted to figure this one out. If I have a dynamic text field with HTML text or even without, can I create a link that executes a function within Flash? I know I can create a link to itself with a variable and pass that variable through javascript and have it run, but that requires refreshing the browser. Is there a more seamless way to do it?

I have an input text box with the instance name of input_txt and a dynamic text field named output_txt. I'm trying to do something with the dynamic field when the user has entered text into the input field. So far, this is what I have:
input_txt.addEventListener(TextEvent.TEXT_INPUT, update);
function update(event:TextEvent):void {
output_txt.text = "foobar";
}
I don't know if this is valid ActionScript 3.0. I am getting an error that says "the class 'TextEvent' could not be loaded."
