Is it possible to control one loaded SWF File eg.(MOVIE-1.swf) from another loaded SWF file eg.(MOVIE-0.swf) on a different level? eg. with a syntax like:
onRelease
_MOVIE-1.SWF.gotoAndStop (4)
or:
onRelease
gotoAndStop (MOVIE-1.swf, frame4)
I have flash player version 8 files(AS2) and Flash Player 9 file(AS3) as main clip - can I load these AS2 files into AS3 file and have them working as they should?
View 9 RepliesI have four buttons in flash and only one of them work. I have attached the fla file and an index page in a zip file. It seems only one button will work at a time.

I changed a layer entry of my Flash file by moving around various elements within the layer. I sitll have the original file, too. I'd like to put it back exactly like it was in the original file. How do I replace the changed sprite element from the new file with the original from the old file?
View 5 RepliesLet me give the context first. A user opens a local html file which has a reference to a network url of an swf file to embed.
(1) If the embed swf requests a local image file , will Flash allow the request?
(
2) If the embed swf requests an image file on a non local url other than one of the swf file, will Flash check a crossdomain.xml file on the url?
I have a SWF that loads and plays an FLV. There is additional functionality like pause and mute and some animation that plays when the video is done. It works perfect, but when I load this SWF into a container SWF, most of it stops working and I don't know why. Maybe it's the NetStream code.
Here is my entire script:
Code:
_root.videoPath = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.flv";
_root.playingVar = 1;
_root.panelVar = 0;

I've only been working with flash for about 3 weeks and I'm fairly new to programming soI'm using Flash CS5 with AS3 btw.

I have a swf in which I load another swf, but when I do so, the buttons to enlarge a picture (large_btn) or to pause (pause_btn) or start (start_btn)the slideshow won't work. When I test the last swf only, everything works normally.
The code is in an AS-file.
Here's what I got sof ar:
ActionScript Code:
//Buttons
_root.large_btn.onRelease = function() {
var enlarge;
var frame = mainloader_mc._currentframe;

What I did:1) created scroll.fla of document size 200px by 200px>> exactly the tutorial posted by Jesse Stratford at when ctrl+enter (preview), text can be scrolled. It works!2) created main.fla of document size 400px by 250px>> contains a movie clip (a box of size 200px by 200px) with instance name = 'box' and a button>> once clicked on the button, scroll.swf is loaded into a "box">> works perfectly fine, except, when scroll.swf is loaded, the text inside scroll.swf cannot be scrolled.
View 1 RepliesTried to load one .swf file into another using loadClip method:
var MCL:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
MCL.loadClip("1.swf", "loader");
The .swf file is loaded but controls inside it won't work (I have some buttons and stuff in it). Separately everything works just fine. Also, what is the difference in loadClip usage between AS 2 and 3? The code above generates some compiler error messages in AS 3 mode, like
"1180: Call to a possibly undefined method MovieClipLoader" and
"1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: MovieClipLoader."

View 7 RepliesI try to make a dynamicly loaded menu.I load four buttons to the stage and applie code to each of the buttons. But it's only the last button loaded, that responds to onRollOver/onRollOut If I roll over the other buttons it's the last buttons that reacts all the time.I just can't see what's wrong. Here's the code:
Code:
buttonCount = 4;
for (var i:Number = 0; i<buttonCount; i++) {
btnRef = "button"+i;

I have a Game swf that uses keyboard Listeners. They workjust fine when the swf's played directly. HOWEVER, after the Game'sbeen loaded into a parent Preloader swf - which is playing from anhtml - , the keyboard Listeners don't function at all.In the Keyboard Listeners do I have to reference the parent?
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to create universal loader of flash games on one entertainment site. What I want is to make some kind of container (SWF A) which will load another flash to it (SWF B) (by some params).
SWF B could be anything - AS1 / AS2 or AS3 flash. SWF A is programmed with AS3. Problem is that not all SWF games, which I try to load, works fine. Some games lost their click events, some games does not load at all, some games are corrupted. When I run that games separately (not using my loader), games work just fine. Why is this happening? Why some flash games are not working properly after loading by another flash?
I'm using Loader object to handle this, without any special settings - same as on examples on AS3 Bible book...
I have an issue with an Mp3 player that I've built. The volume controls work fine in the original mp3 swf, but then when I load it into a movieclip in a different movieclip, it no longer works. I've tried the lockroot function, defining the sound class to "this". See the last function for the vol controls. Let me know if it's more convenient to get the original .flas, I can give a link to the source.
see my code below:
this._lockroot = true;
function getSound(url:String) {sound.stop();delete sound;sound = new Sound(this);sound.onLoad = function(success:Boolean) {

I've looked around and tried various examples that I've seen, but none of them seem to work with "simulate download".It doesn't seem like the swf does anything before it's completely loaded. It doesn't even display the background, just plain white.It also doesn't execute any code, so the event listeners I've seen used for preloaders don't work until the swf is completely loaded.Do I need to somehow designate a section of code to execute before the swf is fully loaded? How do I do that?
View 5 RepliesI made a wedding website for a friend of mine and it went well until I stumble accross this Guestbook problem.
The GuestBook.swf I made it as a separate file & whenever I run it in the server it works well but if I load it into my Main.swf it didn't work...
I am still trying to get comfortable with AS3 so I kind of understand the problem, but can't figure out how to go about fixing it. I am developing a flash site where there is a main container swf which basically contains the site's navigation and a blank movieclip into which external swfs are loaded when the user selects a section. Loading the swfs is not an issue, but getting the actionscript in the external swfs to work is. They work fine standing alone, but when loaded into the container swf they do not.I'm assuming the issue is that the path to the eventlisteners, functions, ect. are broken when loaded into the container. I tried adding the instance name of the blank movieclip to the path but that didn't seem to work
i.e. if my blank movie clip is called "swfContainer_mc" then
Code: Select allexampleMC.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, testRoll);
gets changed to:

I want to use this magnifying glass as a feature in a slideshow I'm making. magnifying glass I am loading swfs into an empty mc using
on (release) {
loadMovie("3.swf", "_root.textframe");
}
The magnifying swf works just fine by itself, but when loaded into the mc in my main swf, it doesn't work. I figure it has something to do with parent/child relationships in the code...and I tried a few permutations. to no avail.
why my MC actionscript with loadVariablesNum("submit.php", 0, "POST"); don't wanna work if I loaded into other _level...
If i don't loaded it work well... but not useful
I am going to make one contact form with Combobox with some input fields in it. The problem is when I tested the contact.swf it works fine and I can easily select any item as I like. But when this contact.swf loads in the main swf by clicking the contact button in the main swf the combo box does not work at all. I attached these two flash for your look. [URL].

i am using Kirupa's Transitions Between External SWFs tutorial to design my site. One of the external swfs i am using has a pic scroller with thumbnails, but when a thumbnail is clicked, nothing happens. When I load the pic scroller movie by itself, it works fine.
check out these links to see what i am talking about... (only the first two thumbnails of pic scroller have actions)
movie with transitions
pic scroller alone
The actionscript that is actually on the thumbnail button is:
on (release) {
loadMovie("detective.swf", "_root.content");
}
i am guessing there is something wrong with that _root part? Also, you have to click on 4 movie clips before you actually get to the button, so that might be causing some problems.
I have created a main swf file which holds a movie container which other swf's load into. One of the sections has a form in it. When I preview this section on its own the form works, but when I preview through the main swf file (or online) the text fields cannot be typed into. How can I fix this?
