How To Get Text To Fade Out / In After Interval - Undefined Variable
Apr 5, 2010
I have borrowed the code from Tiago's web blog. [URL]. I have noticed a few odd things, and have tried to send off to Tiago himself but have not received any response. The first thing I noticed is the code seems to call for the .php file before it can load, so at times it will generate a "undefined" for both the quote and author. The second thing is, which may tie into the first, there seems to be the occasion where the code doesn't load the php file at all. The author and quote will be blank for a duration. And the third question I have is how do I get the text to fade out again after the fade in after an interval.
Code:
import caurina.transitions.Tweener;
var quote:Array = new Array();
var author:Array = new Array();
var totalQuotes:Number;
var rotateTimer:Timer = new Timer(10000, 100); //rotates the quote every 2 seconds for 100 times
[Code] .....

Update: I have this working now and have adjusted the code accordingly. Still can't use buttons to tell it what frame to go to though?
I am trying to write a script that will take an image in a Movieclip fade it in wait for a specified amount of time and then go to the next frame and do the same thing with the next image in a movieclip,so they will act as a slideshow or there will be buttons to tell it to go to the specified frame and fade in to the image.I am able to get it to fade in show the image for 5 seconds then it doesn't fade out just jumps to the next frame.I am using MX04. This is my code so far for each frame. Its kind a mess now as I am lost but here goes.
var frameNumber:Number = 2
var myMc = golfmc;
stop();[code].....

I have the following actionscript which is working fine, but I would like to wait for some seconds each image once has reached the alpha in 100, if you see the example in the headerwhat it does is that the image fades in and when it gets to 100 starts fading out, and I want that when it gets the alpha in 100, keep it for let's say 5 seconds and then fade it out.
square._alpha = 0; whichPic = 0;
_root.onEnterFrame = function() { if (whichPic<4 && !fadeIn && !fadeOut) { fadeOut = true; whichPic++; } else if (whichPic>=4) { whichPic = 1; } if (square._alpha>10 && fadeOut) {

Trying to augment the Kirupa tutorial "ActionScript Text Animation" [URL] to take an external text file. When I switch out the line:
text = "There is only one..."
with:
myLoadVar = new LoadVars ();
myLoadVar.load("davetextdoc.txt")
myLoadVar.onLoad = function (success){
if (success == true) {
output.variable = "text"
output.text=myLoadVar.text;
}}
I get the word "undefined" repeatedly loading itself. The text file is properly formatted (text=dave's text here...) I've tried untold permutations to self-solve.

I am trying to make a simple game where there are five balls that bounce around the screen and speed up at set intervals. You have to dodge them for as long as possible. Right now I have the game set up so that you dodge for 15 seconds and you win - but I can't delete the balls that are bouncing around, and I don't know how to put in a reset button. I have also tried increasing the variable this.speed inside my interval statements but it doesn't work.

I this file: It's Here (FLA) and it's made me completely lost. When you download it, you can clearly see my intentions, I was trying to get each text box to fade out and then another one to fade in when a button was clicked but for some reason the home text box has a little bit to much fun and keeps appearing every third time you click a button, by the way, I haven't set up the last button yet,

I have a situation where I am reading a wide variety of data from an XML file, and if a particular bit of data is not there, I simply want to hide a button. Before I go further, all my XML data in and out works fine, that's not a problem.
If I have this node in my XML:
Code:
<name1></name1>
read it in, assign to a variable and check that variable in the debugger I get this:
Code:
Variable _level0.assocImageName1 = undefined
This is fine. It has no value, so it's undefined.
Now, if I do the most simple of If statements this check just doesn't work. I've tried something like:
Code:
if (_root.assocImageName1 == undefined) {
_root.linked._visible = false;
} else {
break;
}
Now the odd thing, is that with quotes ("undefined") or without, this doesn't work reliably. It seems to just run right past the If and perform the hiding of the button regardless.
Also, if I put something in the XML like so:
Code:
<name1>data</name1>
I get this in the debugger:
Code:
Variable _level0.assocImageName1 = "data"
And check for that like this it doesn't work:
Code:
if (_root.assocImageName1 == "data") {
But oddly enough, if I take the quotes off it does work. What's going on there? I thought you also had to always use quotes when testing a string?

I've written a class in AS2 that extends the Object class It's an abstract class for debugging purposes. The class is defined in an external .as file. The problem is that in an .fla file, after I assigned a variable to a new instance of the class, and I trace that variable, it comes back as 'undefined' The reason it's a problem is that I want to call methods on the instance of the Debug objectIn the .fla, I have the following code:
//import any external classes
import Debug;
//Create general application properties

I'm trying creating a flash navigation bar that can be edited via a simple text file. I'm able to load my different variables properly but i also want to give the user the ability to remove links. I can simply leave the variable from the text file blank and and have the text in the swf disappear but i also want to be able to set the alpha of the movieclip behind the text to zero when the variable is left blank. Alternatively, even if the user could simply set the variable to the string "Blank" and both the alpha of the dynamic text and movieclip would change to zero that would be functional as well. Here is the code i have so far.
NavLoadVar = new LoadVars();
NavLoadVar.load("navigation.txt");
NavLoadVar.onLoad = function() {

I have some xml and I am trying to filter it using e4x. My e4x statement looks like this:
model.config.source.fees..fee.(@min<amount).@amount
My xml looks liks this:
<flex><fees>
<fee type="credit" min="0.00" max="200.00" amount="6.00"/>
<fee type="credit" min="200.01" max="370.00" amount="10.00"/>
</fees></flex>
When the e4x statement is run, I get an error message:
Error #1065: Variable @min is not defined.
But if I change my statement to model.config.source.fees..fee.@min it will return an xmllist of all the min attribute values, so min is defined, at least in that statement. Why doesnt the original statement work?

why I am getting undefined every time I trace the following:
Code:
c = currentCount; //current is 1.
trace (eval("mcSlide" + c)._x);
trace (this["mcSlide" + c]._x);
I would think these would output, if I incrementally go through 3 slides, the correct _x for each slide e.g. mcSlide1._x , mcSlide2._x

I'm using loadVars in AS2 Flash 8 and PHP returns this string
success=false&error_message=xxx
The success variable traces fine but error_message is always undefined. Is it because the underscore is not allowed?

i want to make the current page of a website, fade out, using the Transition Manager.
Best i can come up with is
Code:
TransitionManager.start(VARIABLEtoCurrentMovielip, {type:Fade, direction:Transition.OUT, duration:1, easing:Strong.easeOut});
and obviously before that, have it declare the variable, something like
Code:
if { current position = "home"
VARIABLEtoCurrentMovielip = "home_mc"
}
i just have no idea on the syntax. how do i access the current frame, namely the label? (ie how we have a layer that goes "Home" "About" etc) and then take that varaible and drop it in the transition manager string?
