I am looking for a quick and easy way to store variables in a text file, rather than use amfphp to connect to a database all I need to do is increment values every time a button is clicked. Would be better if all the vars were in the same text file but if I have to have one per var that would be ok.

View 9 RepliesI am working on an app, where the server time needs to be displayed on a Flex app.
The idea is to make a BlazeDS remoting call getServerTime() once during the app intialization and then use a local Timer class to keep updating the display.( I don't want to bombard server with getServerTime() for each second). My question is, once I have a AS3 Date object. How do I increment it by seconds?

View 2 RepliesI am building a custom shopping movie for a client. He sells wine and champagne glasses with customizable bracelets. He wants customers to first choose either a 2,4, or 6 pack of glasses, and then individually choose bracelets. My problem is I don't know enough AS to code the functions.
For instance, when a customer first orders 2 glasses, it adds them to the cart, and then sends them to a new frame of the movie, with pictures of the 4 possible bracelets and a text field below for quantity, each with a default value of 0. They can choose 2, and only 2, bracelets by adding a "1" to their desired text fields.
First off, I want nothing to happen until they add a "1" to 2 separate fields. Once they have done that, a specific 'add to cart button' needs to pop up, that will getURL the proper link to add that bracelet combo to the cart.The code, which is wrong, that I am using so far is this:
ActionScript Code:
on (release) {

im making a project to select a fuel tank capacity and want the default to be 0.0 gallons and have the user increase the number or decrease the number by clicking and up or down arrow button... If they hold the same button that function would ideally increment faster, perhaps by multiples of ten until it reached a max / min number.

View 6 RepliesI've got about 6 buttons laid out, one on top of the other in a list format. In their normal state the buttons are grey in colour, when I rollover them, the buttons flash and turn to orange. Now, what I need to happen is this: I want the buttons to stay orange once clicked and only roll out back to grey when the user has clicked on another button in the list. I've been told that the best way to do this is via adding a listener, however I am a little unsure as to how to go about this. I've checked the flash help file and have a basic understanding of how listeners work...but can't really wrap my head around applying it to this situation. Perhaps I will need to have all the buttons as separate broadcasters?
View 2 RepliesI have a menu with five nav buttons (atcually MovieClips). Each has three frame labels: "on", "stay", and "off". The rollover and rollout animations play flawlessly, but I'm at a loss as to how to give each button a sticky "active" state. I'd like the button to stay in it's active state until another button is clicked, then I would like it to play it's "off" animation. Each MC has this code:

I'm making a simple game to accompany my murder mystery interactive website and I'm having some actionscript issues. The idea is that the user will be able to click on objects around the room, and recieive clue, find keys etc. One of the problems im having is when the user clicks the lamp, it brings up a box over the screen to resemble nighttime, however, when the screen reverts to normal, none of the other elements, i.e the book, are clickable - again, im sure this is a simple solution that I am just overlooking, here is the full code;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
book.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,getBook);

I have some text that is scrolling across the page like a news ticker you would see at the bottom of your TV screen on a news channel.This scrolling text has anchor tags on it (clickable links). It is a dynamic text box inside a movieclip. Problem is, I'm using the build in AS3 Tweener to animate the text across the page and 99% of the time I cannot click the links. The mouse cursor turns to a hand when I hover over the scrolling text but clicking does nothing. If I click really fast and randomly it just might work but it hardly ever does.Do I need to apply a 'display: block' type style to it?Should I use a different tweener?
View 9 RepliesFlash 8 Im very new to AS and I hope this don't seem stupid. All I want to do is double the height of an object every time its clicked. Here is what I have so far and it works, but only one time. I want to be able to click it again and have it double again.
function changeBox(){
myBonus._height = 19 * 2;
}
myBox.onPress = changeBox;
I�m trying to send variables when a movieclip is clicked and use some frames later.
Code:
function langFr(e:MouseEvent):void{
var language = "fr";
play();
}
When the button is clicked, the movie plays until frame 10, where there�s the code:
Code:
if (language == "fr"){
trace ("French")
}
but it�s not working. I imagine that because I�m creating the variable inside the function and trying to read it outside. But how can it be done?

I got a slideshow class, and in here I have a Number variable named "currentImage". This is changing(with the method currentImage += 1 when you click to the next image.
The problem is that when I trace currentImage (Event.ENTER_FRAME), it gives different values on odd and even frame numbers. On frame number 1 trace is 0, on frame number 2 trace is 1 and so on, on frame number 3 it is back to 0 and so on.
The slideshow works, but I got a function that resets the slideshow and this function is also using currentImage, this function doesn't work because of the changeing number.
