I get flashvars that I call with php link like this :
"movie.php?id=2"
The flashvar ID is well get in my movie and appear in a textfield, but the code I use to change the combobox don't work:
rssComboBox.setSelectedIndex(id);
When applying text formatting to a comboBox, the text formatting appears perfectly on the dropdown menu items but the textField text disappears.Removing the text formatting from the textField makes the textField text reappear but of course there is no text formatting.
Is there a trick to this.
I need to build an SWF with a FLVPlayback component that gets its FLV source from flashvars pased in at runtime via javascript.
This is the code I am using on the page:

when I compile I get:
1119: Access of possibly undefined property contentPath through a
reference with static type fl.video:FLVPlayback.
I have a textfield, a combobox and a textfield displaying the XML.When I add something to the XML file using the textfield and the combobox, the textfield displaying the XML goes black.
[Code]...
i need to change the text in a combo box to TLF because i am loading data from an XML and it is a rtl language, how can i either make the original text field invisible and add a tlf or simply replace them? i tried to do it through skinning but i cant find the text field???
View 6 RepliesHow can I send a combo box'es labels to a text box? I would just like it to display whatever the user picked in a text box. I tried using a listener:
objComboListener = new Object();
objComboListener.change = function(eventObj){
mon.text = eventObj.target.value;
} mon_cb.addEventListener("change", objComboListener);
mon.text is the textbox, mon_cb is the combo box.
There are two problems with the above code though:
A. It displays my data, and not the labels.
B. It only displays the first selection. E.g.; if I choose something, it will display that thing, but if I choose another choice, it continues to display the first selection.
Im trying to use the selected item in a combo box (aCB) to populate a text field (taLabel) the trace statement shows the correct item but i'm missing something simple to make it work. This is the error I get:
ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property null not found on fl.controls.ComboBox and there is no default value.
var cPriorities:Array = new Array(
{label:"Image Conscious",data:"Image Conscious"},
{label:"Durable", data:"Durable"},
{label:"Dependable", data:"Dependable"},);

I'm trying to move the textField (or the TextInput) part of a combobox up a few pixels... should be easy but it's not. I've tried this:
Code:
cb.textField.y+=5;
and this:

I've viewed the properties of the TextInput, List, and Combobox components and can't find anything that will help me do this. I created the class mentioned in the link, and successfully linked the TextInput library symbol, but when I add a trace statement to the class I get nothing.
I just recently started playing with cs5 and it's new features. I tried to rotate a textfield with the 3D rotation tool, but when you do this, the textfields gets blurry.And it seems like it's not a vector text anymore, because when you zoom in, it still is blurry.Is there a way to prevent that?

View 2 RepliesI'm using Flash CS3 and want to create a custom ComboBox. I've followed the steps outlined in "Editing component skins in a new document" (http:/[url]...), but every time I get to the step where I drag the ComboBox Assets folder from the HaloTheme.fla library into my library, if I test movie at that point my combobox has become an unclickable white rectangle with no label, button or anything.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to set a specific list item in a mx combobox to have a custom item renderer, the problem is that I cannot do this via mxml, it needs to be done via actionscript at a later stage, eg: combobox gets created, combobox gets populated, user does other tasks, combobox needs to set one or more items in the combobox to have icons (via item renderer)..
I can do this via the onChange event, but it only applies the icon when the combobox is opened and there is a slight delay so you can see the icon being added.
I've heard that Adobe Flash CS5 now comes with native support for Arabic (and other right-to-left languages).I haven't confirmed this, but I have two questions:
1) Does Flash CS5 actually natively support Arabic without needing to use the text layout framework URL...
2) If so, does this native support extend to the ComboBox component?
I'm working on a form in Flash that uses the ComboBox component, and I need to verify whether this support is as holistic as I hope it is.
How can I validate there's a selected item in a ComboBox before saving? If there's no selected item, how can I set focus on the ComboBox?

Both of my ComboBoxes has the same identifier.I could not change the identifier through the properties tab because it is greyed out.
how i can to know if the value of a FlashVar (in as3) has changed. For example: if i inicialize the flashVar with "1" and after set the flashVar to "0", everyOne knows that this flashVar has changed. the problem is if i have the FlashVar value setting in "2" and i set the flashvar value to "2", again.
There are any way to know if this flashVars has changed his value for the same value?

View 2 RepliesWe need a second parameter added that sets the destination/target for the link. The default/current is _blank but we also need to be able to set this to nothing so it opens in the same window. Can you try adding the second parameter to the flashvars list and use this to set the target for the link.
my html is:
<object width="296" height="88">
<param name="movie" value="../soccer_homepage_AM2.swf" />
<param name="FlashVars" value="url=/mainpage_gif.html" />
[code]....
How to I add that second parameter of opening in same window to the flashvar?I believe you separate the additional one by using a & but am unsure exactly what to put?Do I also have to change the ActionScript in the original fla file? This is set to _blank but I believe they want it to stay that way but have the option of adding _self or whatever it needs to be in the Flashvar when needed.
My ActionScript 3.0 is:
btnLink.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonSymbol_click);
function buttonSymbol_click(evt:MouseEvent):void {
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest(stage.loaderInfo.parameters["url"]);
navigateToURL(req, "_blank");
}
I'm passing in a variable from my FlashVar parameters: gameToken, which will control the visibility of several objects through out my movie. The objects are in different frames and all have different labels: review_btn, introReview_btn, endGame_btn. gameToken is being randomly generated by the clients 3D environment, and then passed in the embed code. gameToken would look something like this:
[Code]...
I had some success using this method before, but only for a single object. Now when I try and repeat the method with the various other objects all I'm getting is a headache. At no point in my movie does gameToken ever get set to anything other than null (I'm not testing within my webspace yet).
I am trying to embed a variable title into flash by way of flashvars. It works great in Firefox and Opera so I know it works, but for some unknown reason I just cant get it to work in IE8

I've just completed a flash banner for our site and my boss has just informed he's bought some bannerad software to manage clicks, etc. Originally my flash was passed variables from the HTML via Flashvars which I accessed using something like this: var manid = root.loaderInfo.parameters.manid Which worked great. But now that the variables are getting passed like this (which I have no control over):

I have been grappling with this problem for days now. I want to set two variables in a SWF and have them passed to FlashVars PHP page. I can get it to work when I just send one variable with this code:

I'm trying to call my flashvar and load it in my xml.
but i'm getting an error:
TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter url must be non-null. at flash.net::URLStream/load() at flash.net::URLLoader/load() at test_3d_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()

Below is decription of the file
1. I have a flash file which is loading php variable through flash vars.
2. The flash var variable contains the .txt filename in which data is kept.
3. When I open the php page the swf loads with variable having .txt filename and value containing swf path.
4. I have created timer in flash which check for change of value.
5. When value changes the other flash file loads.
6. All this works fine in all browsers except IE 7
Is it possible to retrieve flashvar parameter in mxml code and if so how? Up to now i have been using Application.application.parameter.name to get what i need.
View 2 RepliesIs it possible to load xml as a flashvar? Basically I want to pull information from a server for a news ticker, but I want the info to be available as or before flash loads so that it appears to be instantaneous. Can xml be passed in as a flash var or do I need to break down the feed into individual vars that get passed in?
I'm not talking about passing a URL to flash, I mean that actual XML. Basically I just want all the data there and loaded on the same page as the flash so there's no load times.
Is there something I can do to make it so that a flashvar can contain any sort of punctuation and not break the html code? Like some sort of encompassing brackets or something? Right now if I try to include some long strings that have quote marks or other characters that could have some sort of meaning in the code, then it tends to interpret it as code rather than a string. Anything I can do?
