Is there a way to call a function inside a loaded SWF file?
Basically, I have a .swf file (A) that loads another .swf file (B)...I would just like to treat B as if it was any other instance added to my class .swf "A"...
Have to recast "Loader" with the name of your .swf file class:
Loaded .swf class:
package src {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class LoadedSWF extends MovieClip {

i load in ActionScript a swf file. So far no Problem, but I didn't found a way to access one of it's functions, the best thing would be if I could access the main function in the mxml part of the swf.
Here is the code of the main-mxml file that belongs to the swf that should load and access another swf[code]...
Is it possible to access a function within a function in a parent swf from a loaded swf?
View 6 RepliesI have an AS3 swf which loads and external AS2 swf. Inside the AS2 swf i have the following code which fetches the flashvars passed through html.
flashpar.text = "Params: " + _level0.name;
When i run the AS2 SWF independently passing the param through HTML. It works fine.But when i load the AS2 swf inside AS3 swf. It is not able to fetch the flashvars, which is strange cz if i load the AS2 SWF inside another AS2 swf it works fine. how should i fetch the flashvars inside the loaded AS2 SWF.
I have two swf, one loads the other using a Loader class, in the loaded swf I have a NetConnection object which I need to access from the host swf, but I can't, if I debug the app, I see the obejct is there, but I can't access it, if I try to set a variable likeloadedSWF = connectorLoader.content (connectorLoader is the Loader object)loadedSWF is always nullIf I debig the app, I see the NetConnection in the loaded SWF, but I can't have access to it, I have try to use Security.allowDomain("*") in both swf to be sure, but nothing, I thought that only doing the allowDomain method I will have access to the loaded SWF objects

So I am loading an SWF like this:
ActionScript Code:
public function layoutLoad(e:Event):void
{
FlashConnect.trace("Display.loadLayout()");
[Code].....
It will compile but I get a "Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference." So I am not targeting right. I did double check my instance name is correct and in the root of the loaded SWF
I am trying to have the function name from itself.It will be really cool to automate something like this:
obj.addEventListener( Event.COMPLETE, myFunction );
private function myFunction( e:Event ):void {
e.currentTarget.removeEventListener( e.type, currentFunction ); // where currentFunction should be myFunction}
I want Access to value of a variable from inside of Function like this simple example
function test() {
a = 10;
}
trace(a);
// return undefined
i am trying to access a variable from inside a function like this:
ActionScript Code:
var X:Number=1;
function hello(event:event){
trace(X)
}
or something like that... does anyone know why i don't get "1" in the output panel when i run the code?
I have difficulty accessing a function inside a child object from parent.I've created an object named "dot" which has the following code in it:

I'm using loadMovie to load in an external SWF file. I'm looking to call a function called setText() inside of this swf. I can get to the function by doing this:
ActionScript Code:
toolTip = _root.createEmptyMovieClip("toolTip", _root.getNextHighestDepth());
toolTip.loadMovie("ToolTip.swf");
[code]....
but it's not working like this:
ActionScript Code:
toolTip = _root.createEmptyMovieClip("toolTip", _root.getNextHighestDepth());
toolTip.loadMovie("ToolTip.swf");
toolTip.setText(aTxt);
how I can do this without an enterframe?
My problem maybe a development problem is that i've a preloader file.This preloader with bulkloader load and external swf that is the index file.Now because of i'm using the preloader every stage reference in the index class like stage.stageWidth will generate a #1009 error. So my question is how can i access to the an index class function so that when the preloader's stage will resize some index sprites must will assume the new width of the stage?

View 3 RepliesI have a simple quesiton about class, method and functions inside a method and class properties. I created a new class form my custom component.. But upon developing it I found out that you can not access a property inside the function which is also inside a method..
Example
Code:
class myClass{
private var myProperty:Number = 1; //default is 1
//constructor
public function myClass(){
}//Method
[Code] .....
What I want to do is to access the property inside the method.. I also have a work-around still i cannot point a certain variable to a property of my class inside the method's function..
I have followed the tutorial on gotoandlearn that builds a preloader swf to load an external swf. The problem I am having on the main timeline is that I now cannot access a function in the final external loaded swf. This worked fine when I just loaded the external swf into the main timeline but with the preloader I think I have my loader instances confused and I don't know how to fix it.
[Code]...
Like I said this worked perfectly before I tried cleaning things up with intermediate preloader swf and now its all gone pete tong (again!!) When testing this by reviewing the main timeline it cannot recognise the function killStream
I'm loading website by using htmlLoader.loadString(someHtml). There are included JS sources.Is there any chance to get access to functions which are inside this JS file?
I also set property placeLoadStringContentInApplicationSandbox to true.
I have searched for this everywhere but it seems like every answer is either overcomplicated or simply does not work, and I know for sure there should be a more simple way of achieving what I need. So, until today, I have always coded from within the timeline. But now I realise why I should code in separate class files. However, I still want to include snippets of code in the timeline for simplicity's sake.

I'm trying to use a loadMovie function inside a loop to load external PNG files when my game is loaded. Unfortunately, I can't get even a single loadMovie to work correctly, much less execute a bunch of them.The code is on the root time line, and is targetting an empty movie clip that is nested inside about 3 levels. There is a button, with a movie clip on it, and the empty clip I'm trying to load into on that.so the full target path is myBox_00.smallBox.myLogo(myBox_00 is the button, smallBox is the movie clip, and myLogo is the empty)[code].I even tried using a JPG image instead of a PNG and still no luck. The best I could do was number 4; and that didn't work, all it did was SOMETHING instead of NOTHING... unfortunately that something was to make the button (myBox_00) disappear entirely T_T.I've never had much luck with loading external images. What am I missing here?
View 9 RepliesI can't seem to access anything from a loaded swf file. I can, however access parent variables/methods from inside the loaded swf file.
var ldr:ProLoader;
function loadExternalSWF():void {
ldr = new ProLoader();

This just gives me the error:
TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.
EDIT: wrapperMC is just an empty movie clip instance that I've created and positioned on the stage to load the external movie into.
i don't know why the calling of the "currentFrame" function is not working

View 1 RepliesI am trying to access a button inside an external swf file that I loaded. Problem is every time I try to access this button I get an error saying that it's null!
Here is my code:
public class DocumentClass extends Sprite
{
public var loader:Loader;
public var swfFile:URLRequest;
[Code].....
Now this should work, code-wise I think its correct. The problem is that loader cant find the required button. There is indeed a button in the loaded movieClip with an instance name of "button", I double checked that.
[URL] basically i was just a layer too high and this is why i couldn't access anything..
I need a bit of assistance in a game making.Basically ve got the mysteryNumber inside thefunction working but I need functions in the other ActionScript files to access themysteryNumbe.So basically I have a:

I already have the shuffle function working, it shuffles 51 numbers (the number of questions in the game) between 51 variables, so each variable is assigned a different number and they don't repeat. My problem is that I can't figure out how to apply those numbers to the variable that get loaded from the text file. I could make many IF statements but that would be a lot of code, so I tried doing a function, but it didn't work. this is the function:
