Call Function In Main Doc Class From External SWF?
Jul 9, 2009
I have a main.swf that loads in an external swf called home.swf. I want to be able to call a function in main.swf's doc class from the loaded swf:
Code:
function loadArtist():void { // my function }
in the main timeline of home.swf I'm calling it this way:
Code:
function timeToGo(m:MouseEvent):void {
trace("button pressed");
MovieClip(this.parent.parent).loadArtist(); }
the home.swf compiles fine but when loaded in the main.swf & the button is pressed i get this error:
TypeError: Error #1006: loadArtist is not a function.
at home_fla::MainTimeline/timeToGo()
It seems that it thinks loadArtist is a property. Ack. I've got 3 objects loaded dynamically using addChildAt(mc, 0) ...

I have a document class called Main.as In the class constructor I have the following listener:
enter code here
var listeningFORModeChangeToStudent:Sprite = new Sprite;
listeningFORModeChangeToStudent.addEventListener(TellAllModeChangeToStudent.STUDENT,exp);
addChild(listeningFORModeChangeToStudent);
[code]....
In a third class I make a call to the despatcher in the previous class:
enter code here
var ThisTellAllModeChangeToStudent:TellAllModeChangeToStudent = new TellAllModeChangeToStudent;
ThisTellAllModeChangeToStudent.tellAllModeChangeToStudent();
I have trace statements in eveything and from this I know the despatcher in TellAllModeChangeToStudent is being called.The problem is that the listener in the main.as is not calling the function exp.I cant see why and I dont know how to check if the listener is actually seeing the dispatch event?

I have some functions defined at the main timeline, and I need to call them from a class, how can I do this?
I've tried object(parent).function();
and object(root).function();
but didn't worked
those functions need to be on the main timeline because they removeChild() of the class

I'm loading from my main page an external js file, with a function.
I have a flash file in the main page invoking the javascript function.
Everything worked very well until when the javascript code was in the main file, but when I moved javascript to an external file the function seems not called anymore.
So... there is no way to move the javascript code to an external file ? Or any other solution ?

It's at the back of my head somewhere, but I can't figure it out.I have a dropdown menu movie clip I need to make _visible = false, but calling
PHP Code:
_root.dropdown._visible = false

I have a function within another function. Is it possible to call the function inside the function from the main timeline. See example code. I want to call the function called sub from outside off the function called main.
Code:
function main():void{
// Do something
function sub():void{
//do something

I've got a movie with a few buttons in it. When you click on one of the buttons an external swf opens. At the same time a large, quare, white movieclip opens at the back of the external swf (the white mc is in the main movie). Okay, so for so good.
In the external swf there is a close button. When you click the button, the external swf goes to frame 14 to show a short closing animation. The last frame contains the following code:
TweenLite.to(_level0.contentback_mc,1,{_alpha:0});
this.unloadMovie();
The first line is to make shure the large white mc becomes transparent again. The second line is - ofcourse - to unload the external swf.
The problem is that the first line doens't work. When I trace the first line from the main movie, the output contains '_level0.contentback_mc;
Oh, and the external swf is loaded in an actionscript generation container (contentback_mc).

I'm not sure that I'm on the right track here. I've got what is essentially a 'gateway' movieclip and depending on the CLICK a corresponding movieclip (form) is loaded -- these all being in their own AS file. There are multiple corresponding pages that will all load/close in their own fashion but the 'gateway' will reload in it's own function-- consequently, I have this function on the main_AS. Can I trigger this function from the sub class or do I need to move the 'reload' function to a 'reload' class.

I am using in AS3 "External Interface ". When I call the JS function that is on the same page as swf everything works fine.
I added a link in the html page to an external JS file, when I move the JS function to the external JS file the website crushes.
I would prefer to have all my JS functions on an external file so I can use them in the future in other project and it also makes it easier for me to update the site.

I am working on AS3 and I have a created a button class which have an off state and on state. I did the class and it works fine, but i need a little fine tuning. Right now I am polling the button state from the root(main timeline) by checking a boolean property in the button class. I feel it is quite inefficient to check the button state on every enterFrame event of the main timeline. Rather I would prefer the button to tell the root time line by invoking a function written in the root, whenever a state change occurs. t should be cleaner , right?? But when I try to access a function in the root which goes like this
