ActionScript 2.0 :: Pull Back A True Or False Value From An Associated Javascript File To A Flash File?
Aug 23, 2005is there a simple way to just pull back a true or false value from an associated javascript file to a flash file? here is what i have:
Code:
var bincheck:Boolean = fscommand("eval", "parent.check_bins(\'"+img+"\')");
if (!bincheck){return false;}
return true;
check_bins(img) is a function in my javascript file that simply iterates through an array, returning false if "img" is found. im simply trying to get the true or false value back into flash, but its not proving that simple. i added a couple alerts so that i could see what the "bincheck" value was, and i keep getting an 'undefined' value for "bincheck" in flash.
CS4/AS3 - Pull Text From A File?
Jan 7, 2011EDIT: New problem, post #5 Say I have a flash website made, and to allow for minor information changes to be easily made by someone without flash, they can simply open, edit, and reupload to the webserver a text file that contains that page's info.So, how can I have flash pull text from a file, and always do that every time it's ran (ie, not have to republish a new swf)?

Creating A Pull Down Menu?
Apr 22, 2010I'm trying to create a pull down menu. Not one that drops down when rolled over but one that drops down when clicked and stays down until an item is selected. Once an item is selected or the menu is clicked out of it retracks again.
My strategy is to create a movie clip for the initial menu that when clicked jumps to another movie clip where ther menu is extracted and houses movie clip buttons that hightlight when rolled over and when clicked redirect to another movie clip related to the button that was selected.
is this the proper way to do this? And second: can you offer some direction for the action script?

View 3 RepliesDynamic Text In Pull Down Component?
Sep 11, 2009I am using flash CS4, AS2 and have had a client request for something that I'm not sure is possible.
I have created a calculator that calculates the cost savings that my client offers their customers. There are many options available in the calculator and it is quite in depth. At one point there is a pull down menu where the site visitor can choose their product, then enter the amount they pay for it currently. If their product is not listed, the site visitor can choose "other" from the list.
Is it possible that when the client selects "other", the text IN the pull down component for that option could be dynamic, so that the site visitor can enter the name of their product? The product they enter does not need to be submitted anywhere, nor does it need to remain upon that visitor's next visit. It simply needs to be there for the duration of their current session, to help the client keep track of what product they are comparing.
Make A Draggable Pull Down Button?

Also, as the button reaches halfway, it needs to go all the way automatically as well, so the users don't have to drag all the way down themselves. Is that something I need to do in actionscript

Jan 23, 2009I'm using Flash CS4 as my IDE with Actionscript 3 and Flash Player 10. I'm working on a bigger project but the area I'm struggling in is dynamically pulling an image from the flash library (already loaded). I've been finding the same answers to my question all over and they seem to keep producing the same error so apparently I'm just not getting some little detail. I have an image loaded in the library called test1.jpg. I've right clicked on it and selected 'Export for ActionScript' and 'Export in frame 1'. The class is 'MyMc' and the Base class is 'flash.display.BitmapData'. My code is attached.
and it produces the following errors:

View 4 RepliesActionscript 3.0 :: Pull Up A Particular Xml Node Based On An Id Value?
Apr 23, 2010I've got a section in my code where I am trying to pull up a particular xml node based on an id value I have. When I try to pull it up via the method shown the code stops executing at that point. In other words, the "got here" is traced but neither of the two lines after it or any code below that point in the function seem to get executed. If I take that line out the code executes just fine. I'm using this same xml object in many places and the xml data is fine it is just when I try to use this syntax that it gets confused.
I'm also a bit confused as to why the code just stops. I realize that flash doesn't generally display errors at runtime, but if it doesn't show up as a compile error or warning what is the best way to avoid the code hang up? Also is this the correct way to access the node? I actually am trying to retrieve the team attribute on the same node with an id that I'm using in the xml search query. Should playXML.players.(@id == '18431').@team get me that value? It seems to cause the same behavior any time I try to use that syntax even with other attributes from the player nodes and if I use something like playXML.players.@id it returns all the nodes id attributes.
Code: Select alltrace("got here");
trace(playXML.players.(@id == '18431'));
trace("also got here");
Here is the xml:
Code: Select all<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<play>
<players>
<player id="18431" pos="LOT" realpos="OT" name="TT1 Tackle 4" team="1509" number=""/>
[code]....
Edit:I dropped a try/catch statement around this block and that solves the code execution issue but I still can't access the node I want with a given id using the playXML.players.(@id == '18431') style syntax.
