Professional :: Disabled Combo Boxes Don't Display Properly After Loading Movie
Mar 16, 2010
I have a main movie that contains some combo boxes. Some of them may be disabled.By pressing a button I load another movie using loadMovie. The loaded movie also contains combo boxes.When the button is pressed, the clip that shows the combo boxes is removed from the stage and the loaded movie is displayed. By pressing another button, the loaded movie is unloaded and the clip with the combo boxes is displayed again.Well, once the other movie has been loaded, when I go back to the clip with combo boxes, the disabled combo boxes have a small gray button covering the black down arrow.I have determined that so long as the loaded movie contains combo box in the library, the problem occurrs, even if there is no actual instance of it.The combo boxes that are not disabled are not affected. The combo boxes are disabled by setting "cb_name.enabled=false".If the combo box is enabled, it displays correctly, but if disabled again, it goes wrong again.My project is targeting Flash 8, so it uses AS2.I'm using Flash CS4.

Environment: Flex/As3/Cairgorm/composite component.I have two comboboxes and two datagrids such that the selection of combobox 1, inserts data into combobox two and the fist datagrid.The selection of combobox 2 inserts data into datagrid 2.I have setup the change event so that the user selection on each of the combo boxes do the right thing. The problem is that on the initial load of the comboboxes, the change event does not fire and subsequent synchronization data loading does not happen.Is there an event for getting the itemselected (1st item) after the combobox is initialized?

What i need to do is, In Flash (FlashMX, CS3 or CS4) I need to place 2 combo boxes. by default the 1st one will be enabled and the 2nd will be disabled. First combo box will have country names and the 2nd will have state names. when a user selects the country name from the 1st combo box, the 2nd shuld then get enabled. and when a user selects the state from the 2nd combo box, there will be button next to it for clicking. on clicking the button, the values in each combo box shuld be selected and the user will be taken to a specific URL which will have the contents on current selected state in the current selected country.

I'm looking for an example of having the selection that a user makes for one combo box determine the options the user sees in a 2nd combo box.For example, if combo box 1 is State and combo box 2 is County, then if the user selects Wisconsin for State, combo box 2 will display only the counties that are in Wisconsin.Assume that the values for State and County are coming in from an xml data file.

Right now, I have a successful combo box that loads an external jpg to flash from a folder where I store all my images. However the information that is given about the pictures are all in the flash code. I have an xml document, and I was wondering if there's any way I can load information from the xml file rather than supplying it in the flash code,
this is currently the flash code:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
combo_cb.addItem("0001 The Assasain", 1);

I am trying to populate a component combo box using an urlloaded xml, the xml has been "escaped" and the spaces replaced with +.
How do I populate the combo box as when I unescape the xml and replace the +s it is now in string format.
When I have the combo box in need to be able to select an option, which reflects in the next urlrequest...e.g.
TextLoader.load(new URLRequest(" http://onedev/one/Query2.asp?Cat=THEvalueFROMmyCOMBOBOX "));

I'm currently using the change event handler to detect any changes made to the combobox selection, however, I would like it to ignore when the arrow keys are pressed as I am using them elsewhere.

I'm trying to insert some data into my DB from two Combo Boxes in Flash. I'm not quite sure how to go about it. I have no idea how to give the combo box a 'var' value like we do for a regular textfield. I have other pages where I have regular text fields that work fine as I can specify the 'var' value in the properties but not for combo boxes. I'm new to actionscript so please bear with me.
Action Script for my button:
Code:
on (press) {
loadVariablesNum
("http://localhost/Test/acadForm.asp",0, "post");

So I made a flash that uses a preloader, then once finished loading mc1 should be visible and playing along with a couple buttons. It loads properly most of the time, but maybe 10% of the time mc2 loads instead of mc1, no buttons are visible, and mc2 isn't even playing (refreshing the browser makes everything work properly btw). Is there some way I can make it load properly 100% of the time?

I decided to use a loader method for a flash project. When I load swf files from a folder on my computer into my main movie, it loads just fine. However, when I try to load the same exact swf files from a remote server, the script fails on me giving me an error like this: TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert Com@2f949bc9 to Com.I had imagined that this was due to security domains, so I had tried something like this:[code] SecurityError: Error #2142: Security sandbox violation: local SWF files cannot use the LoaderContext.securityDomain property. file:although everywhere states it should work.I even have makeshift class files for those SWF's on the server with Security.allowDomain(["*"]);

I'm making a VERY basic Jeopardy game, and I need buttons to be disabled after being clicked on once.
Oh, and I'm working in CS3, but I'm using AS 1&2 because that's what I learned... I have no idea how to use AS 3...
example: frame 1 has btn11 in it. btn11 when clicked takes the person to frame 2. when done with frame 2, they click on return.
the return button (btnReturn1) has the following AS
on (release) {
gotoAndStop ("Round1",1)
btn11.enabled=false;
}
the problem is that it works at first - the button disables when I get back to frame 1, but the next time I click a different button then return to frame 1, the first button I disabled isn't disabled anymore.
my actionscript so that my disabled buttons stay that way no matter how many times I come and go from the frame? or if you have a better way to do it, that'd be great. basically, it's like the jeopardy screen, and after "songs" for 200 is clicked, I don't want it to be clickable again at all.

I am trying to find the code I need to display all the Countries in a combo box component that I need for a form for when you "Select your Country". I want to try and save time and not have to insert all of them into the Parameters of the component. Is there code out there or a source file I can grab to quickly create this selection box.

I want a combo box to display a description of the information in the combo box. The name property is a good way to do this in my opinion "comboBox.name = This is what I named this Box". I have a text field ("textDescription") set to display the name of the comboBox on MOUSE_OVER, but only on the edges does the actual name of the comboBox appear. When in the middle, the textDescription displays "instance #" where # is an actual number. Is there some kind of container placed over the combo box or something??

I'm working on a flash thing that just has three boxes, each with a different # in it. By clicking the box it will turn red or green, and below it will display the sum of all the green boxes. This is really just a test kind of for a bigger project that I have to do for work. Basically it all works except for the summing part, which I believe has something to do with the fact that it is in a function, but I could be way off.

I've downloaded the Flash CS5 trial and am trying to use the software, but a lot of buttons and symbols are greyed out for me and I don't know why. Here's a typical use case for me:
- Open Flash CS 5
- Create a new Flash AS3 Project
- Try to use the buttons on the right-hand toolbar, but they are greyed out
Also, I can import images to the stage or library, but I cannot click anything or edit their properties.See attached image for a screenshot of the buttons in their disabled, greyed-out state.I can even open an old project made in CS4, but again, I cannot edit any symbols that I've already made.Is there something I need to do to enable the buttons?
