ActionScript 3.0 :: Use The FlashVars To Embed/place A Variable (a URL) In The Swf Before It Even Starts?

May 27, 2009

I had to convert an AS2 clicktag script to AS3. It complies and works locally, but I was told I need to use the FlashVars to embed/place a variable (a URL) in the swf before it even starts.This is something I haven't experimented with (yet)I've seen examples and I kind of understand it, but I was hoping on some clarification
 
var flashVars=root.loaderInfo.parameters;
 
I understand the dot synatx (enjoy using it), and the root is probably the begining (where it will place the sting) Im a bit confussied on the loaderinfo and the parameters what are here functions in the command.
 
var clickTAG = flashVars["clickTAG"];

then using the flashVars Im unsure on the use of square brackets (instead of using curly braces)Best guess:This will take the string passed to it "a url" clickTAG and use the flashvars to embed/place it in the root/begining tagged as "clickTAG"?

Flash :: Checking For FlashVars Value In Embed Code AS3?

Feb 3, 2011

I thought it was a problem with my Try / Catch statement, but in reality my issue is really just trying to do a check in an If / Else statement to see if my Flash player can obtain any data from a flashVar. If flashVar VID = great, Else read from an XML file.Basically this is what I need to have happen:

Check to see if there are flashVar values

If so then load the other Class files and DO NOT get the XML file

If not then run the code in the Catch statement and load the XML file

UPDATED CODE I put a lot of comments to explain what I'm trying to do :(

public function playerLive():void
{
// Attempt to load from HTML EMBED[code]......

ActionScript 2.0 :: Embed The Swf And Load A File Via Flashvars?

Aug 10, 2009

I'm using the following code to embed the swf and load a file via flashvars. It works fine in firefox...but does not work in IE. I'm convinced that the issue is in my html syntax. Can anyone spot the problem?

<script type="text/javascript">
swfobject.embedSWF("myflash.swf", "banner", "300", "300", "9.0.0", false, {}, {wmode: "transparent"},{flashvars: "xmlfile=http://www.mydomain.com/directory/file.xml"});
function closeAd(id){
document.getElementById(id).style.display='none';

Flash - Get Flashvars In Firefox Using Object Embed Tag Only To Work?

May 11, 2010

I am trying to generate an <object> tag only embed code and cannot get Firefox to pass Flash along the FlashVars values. This seems to work everyplace else that I've tried it but fails in Firefox. Here is a sample of the embed that I'm using:

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=10,0,0,0" width="550" height="400" id="Main" align="middle" data="Main.swf">
<param name="movie" value="Main.swf" />

[code]....

note that the Flash experience does show up in Firefox but when I do traces and actually run the application this fails to read the values.

ActionScript 3.0 :: String Variable In Place Of Int Variable?

Jan 2, 2012

This is sort of difficult to explain but I'll do my best. I've got 6 score variables that go up over time.

[Code]...

Each corresponds to a different color of "Monster" class I reated. "GreenMonster", "BlueMonster", etc. are all custom classes. Each class has a string property called "MonsterColor". So "Blue1.MonsterColor = "Blue".

To save lines of code, and learn, I'm trying to use a local string variable to take the place of whichever of these 6 int variables I need. So inside a for loop, I've created a variable called "colorscore".

ActionScript 3.0 :: FlashVars - Send A Variable Value From Swf To PHP?

May 18, 2010

I'd like to be able to generate certain data XML file through PHP based on variable that embedded in html page swf sends or request. I heard that it can be achieved by assigning FlashVars. I created a flash gallery which loads all content based on data from XML. However, I need to load a different content using the same flash gallery based in which html page the swf(gallery) is embedded. I can generate new XML through PHP if swf will send a variable to PHP which can be read as unique. I need to create a mechanism where the embedded swf send this unique variable.

Flash :: Pass PHP Variable As FlashVars Via SWFObject

May 24, 2010

I am trying to take a PHP variable and pass it along to Flash via Flash vars. My end goal is to pass a string formatted as XML to Flash, but because I'm struggling I've stripped everything down to the basics. I'm just trying to pass a simple PHP string variable to Flash via FlashVars with SWFObject but something isn't right. The page won't load when I try to pass the variable inside of php tags, but it will load if I just pass a hard coded string. The basic structure of my page is that I have some PHP declared at the top like so:[code]How do I pass a PHP variable using SWFObject and FlashVars?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Pass Variable From Parent To Child Swf Via FlashVars?

I'm passing a number in my HTML through FlashVars to a swf, I load an external swf into that parent swf which needs the variable that I passed.

I can use the variable passed in the parent, but I just can't understand how to attain that value in the child swf.

I've been looking into dispatch event but it seems way overkill. Haven't seen any examples dealing with something so simple.

ActionScript 2.0 :: LoadSound Starts Fine, Then A Second Starts Replaying Again?

Apr 8, 2006

I've got a site that is using loadSound to play some mp3s and it works fine. however, the sound starts to stream, and then replays itself like a second later. my guess is that its playing faster than the load is going and when it gets to the point where it hasn't loaded enough, it starts to replay it, but i'm not sure that that is the exact problem. my code:

[Code]...

now, i tried making a playTrack function that i can call with setTimeout and i put that in the onLoad in place of track.start(), but that didn't work either (i was hoping to not start playing the track for 3 seconds to give it some time to buffer).

Can someone pls. educate me on if there is a difference in the way the image files are looked up, in a CSS file, on windows vs linux.

Actionscript 3 :: Embed Dynamic Audio File(s) / Use Variables In Embed?

Feb 10, 2012

Making a piano/keyboard application and trying to figure out the best way to set this up .I plan on having a directory of sounds for each 'instrument' in my assets folder (piano1/C4.mp3,piano1/D4.mpg,...)Is there a way to import/embed all of these as an array? Also is there a way I can pass a variable to this class to indicate which folder I want to import these from? Something that would be ideal

var type = "piano2"; //passed from class being called by
foreach(notes as note){
[Embed(source = 'assets/sounds/'+type +'/'+note+'.mp3')] private const C3:Class;
public var c3:Sfx = new Sfx(C3);
}

Or would it be a better idea to have a class for each of these "types" that pulls all notes?
