Random Name With Text File?
Nov 1, 2010
I want to make a random name selector for choosing pupils in class. The below works, but I was wondering if there was a way that I could set it up so that I could just copy and paste a list of names to the text file, ie have the " &name2 =" in the actionscript or in a different file. It would be so much quicker and useable for non IT staff.This is what I have:
Action script:
loadVariablesNum("names.txt", 0);
count = Number(random(numvars)) + 1;
[code].....

I'm using the following script to load a random quote from a text file:
ranQuote = new LoadVars();
ranQuote.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
RanNum = Math.ceil(Math.random()*25);
ran = this["quote"+RanNum];
quote_txt.text = ran;[code]..........
quote_txt.text = "The text failed to load due to an error";[ode]........
Is there a line or two that I can add to this that would prevent it from choosing the previously pick number again?I mean it can use it again, just not twice in a row.

I have been making a memory game, where words are shown to the user. Once they have memorised the words they go to the next screen where the words that they have memorised are shown. They then have to drag each word into a "correct" place and a "wrong" place. I now want to edit it so that I can use two arrays one for correct words and one for wrong words. I want to generate random words from each of these arrays. I have sort of worked out how this is possible to do but using dynamic text, but am I correct in thinking that the whole dragging the words thing is not possible with dynamic text. (I may be wrong though, I am quite new to flash).

When a user enters the website, it will pull text from some location (possibly an XML file) and load it into a text field. The trick is that I want it to randomly load a different chunk of text in each time the user opens the site. There are about 25 different small pieces of text I want to randomly load.
I'm thinking of using XML to store the 25 different text sentences, but am open to other ideas.

How can I save data to a text file and also append a record to data in an existing text file? I've used Authowrware previously and it was quite easy to create a large string of data (a comma separated list) and export that to a text file (and create the text file if it didn't already exist). I could then easily append additional rows of data (records) to the text file. We want to build a questionnaire that will store the data locally on the computer in a text file. Each record may have a few hundred data points in a comma separated list.

I'm found the site with the monkey on the the flash thing and all it shows is a name, email and something else and I used it and it works by including a txt file and displaying text from that file as putting down this information
name.text = this.name;
and I can't find the site anymore to get help.I want to know how to include a PHP script that shows this information like this
text=something I need&username=My Name&email=something@website.com
I want to show this stuff on the flash but every time I execute by using it as localhost/test.php, it will show a syntax error.

i got an XML File with a set of variables which should be chosen randomly. Of course, if one data set has been selected, it should not come up again. to solve this, i created an array called blacklist, which keeps track of all the xml indexes which have allready been selected. so, what i'm doing in f_newtarget is randomize a number between 0-42 and check if it on the blacklist. if it is, i trace "double" and want to restart, and if it is not, write the randomized index to the blacklist and move my target to the coordinate given in the XML.
whats not working is when i get a double event. it traces the "double" but does not start to randomize again. i think i know why, cuz the action is only triggered by pushing the button. but in the case taht the randomized number is allready in the array, i want it to automatically re-randomize r until it finds a value which has not part of the array. what do i have to write in order for the code to jump back to where it randomizes the variable r?
or should i write like a whitelist array from which i randomely deduct the indexes? i have a button which holds the code for selecting a new question. it looks like this:

I would like a flash header on my Wordpress blog that will load images at random by way of XML list from a folder on my server. I'm undecided as to whether I would like it to just randomize on refresh, or actually be a slideshow of sorts that would go through several images on one page load.Alternately, instead of a list of files in the XML file, I would prefer the flash movie to be able to pull the images without having to specify them by name, so that I could ultimately continue to add images to the folder without affecting the script.Also, if it does work as a slideshow, I would like to ensure that no one image would repeat itself back to back, or possibly before it went through all the rest of the images

I want to have a background image that randomly loads from a list of *.jpg files in a txt file. The txt file is to be edited by user (to add a new image) without accessing the code contained in the .fla, and the txt file gives the location of the images.

Code:
filename = ["header1.swf", "header2.swf", "header3.swf", "header4.swf", "header5.swf"];
path = "[URL]";
i = filename.length;
k = Math.floor(Math.random()*i);
loadMovie(path+filename[k], movieTarget);
That is the code that I am using for the container swf. I know the code works because I used it for static images and it worked fine. When I take a look and the HTML file, this is the error I get.
"A script in this movie is causing Macromedia FLash Player 7 to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive."
Each of the header swf files are about 40k, and they each load AS from a single AS file. Do I need a preloader?
