I have a class set up and it looks like this:
package scripts
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Stage;
[Code]....
This works fine and I am able to get the string, but how would I modify the class to be able to return FlashVars?
I am setting the FlashVars using this:
<param name=FlashVars value="var=test" />
I wan the name from PHP send the value to flash Class.
PHP Code: flashvars='u_name=<?php echo urlencode($name);?> I had tried the code on the stage timeline, it works. But i do not know how to pass it to class.

I am having trouble getting an flv dynamically into a swf file and then getting it to play in a browser.
The objective seems simple enough but I've hit a brick wall. A movie file is to play in the entire browser window (100%) and preserve aspect-ratio when the window is resized.This is done using this code, which is loaded as the document class (Vid.as) in an empty .fla project using CS3

I am trying to pass FlashVars into public class EventDispatcher to set the path to data.xml. I need it because the name and path of the xml file will be dynamically created. I need to use Flashvar in order to access the correct path.I was able to pass Flashvar from html page on timeline this way:
Actionscript Code:
var Flashvars:String = LoaderInfo(stage.loaderInfo).parameters.xmlfile;
Then, I was able to use it with new UrlRequest;
Actionscript Code:
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(Flashvars);
This method works really good, but this solution only works on timeline.I need to implement this technique in the class. Before I setup a static var for with the path to xml file. I'd like to be able to get FlashVar withing this class and assign this string to 'public static var DATA_XML_URL:String' I have there. This way I can pass Flashwar to the project I already have.

I'm trying to figure out how to use FlashVars in ActionScript 3.0. I'm familiar with _root in AS2 but I've learned it doesn't work in 3.0. I've played around with LoaderInfo that I know should do the trick but I can't seem to get it to work. And I can't seem to find any help in any of the many threads and forums I've visited today.
So I'm putting my trust in you guys. I want my button ("button2") to open a link in another frame ("rightFrame") through a FlashVar. I'm quite new to flash and after much banging my head in the wall this is what I've come up with (obviously the _root doesn't work but if replaced by a hard coded url with http:// it works like a charm):

View 5 RepliesI used almost two weeks to search the Web how to pass some variable/parameter/Flashvar from one swf to another.I have a main swf file, let's call it "main.swf" and here in AS3 I'll call "comonent.swf" with some parameters.All this is easy if I call the component.swf from HTML, but I have to call it from another swf file.[code]My problem is that this doesn't work of course - the method in "getSwfParam" is only tuned to get the parameters if it's coming from the URL string from the HTML page. I can't use "component.swf?age=23" in my call from the main.swf, because it'll confuse AS3 to think that the wole string.IS THE flash file.I tried localconnection and sharedobject too, but I just can't get the sender and receiver part to work together.I only need to send some short codes to my component.swf to tell what it should do.Now I begin to question if it is possible it was in AS2, but now the _root is gone and everything got so d.
View 6 RepliesI am loading a child swf inside a parent swf, and need to pass variables from the parent into the child. I don't have control over the source code of the child, so I can't have the child pull data from the parent; the data needs to be passed to the child swf in a standard fashion, so that the child works just as if it were embedded in a page using flashvars.I've tried passing variables to the child as parameters on the URL:
var ldr:Loader = new Loader(); var urlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://mysite.com/child.swf?var1=aaa&var2=bbb"); ldr.load(urlReq); addChild(ldr);
This seems to work ok, but apparently Internet Explorer doesn't allow URLs longer than 2083 characters [URL]. I need to pass a fairly long string of parameters to the child which will likely exceed 2083 characters. So I'm trying to avoid passing the parameters directly on the URL, and wondering if there is any other way to populate the child swf with the variables that it will expect. Is there any other way of passing flashvars to a swf-in-swf?
I have a task where a user fills in a form and uploads a photo. As a result a HTML page is generated that pass the form data to SWF file using FlashVars.
What i want is that the SWF movie loads the uploaded image and show that at frame no. 400 till 1000
I want to know what steps I have to take and what Code i have to write in order to achieve what I want.
I went through many articles and tutorials and I can't get the FlashVars working.
I'm using the SWFObject to insert the Flash movie into HTML:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

But the aname variable doesn't exists in the Flash. Even if I loop through all the param values, there is nothing. I tried to add the "aname" into query and it's working. But I really want and need to use FlashVars.

In my application I often call to different web services, and because I don't want to hardcode urls to them in my code, I am passing urls to the services as flashvars.Currently I am doing it this way:
public var siteUrl:String;
public var gameId:String;
public function main():void[code]....
Where main is a function, which is called on application's creation complete event.This way I can call both variables from main file of the application but I want to access them from other files. (other as classes).So is there a way to create class with constants and init values there with flashvars so I can use them everywhere (after importing of course)

View 2 RepliesRecently a client was concerned that their SWF was "insecure" because the XML path was coming from Flashvars. This seems to me to be something that isn't really a concern as the SWF is only displaying images / text and a few button links. I can understand how someone could path to the swf and add a remote XML path in to add javascript to the button url targets, but really what damage could this do? Eg. they could change [URL] to this [URL] Obviously they could build a fake wrapper html file around this but I still don't see how they could do anything harmful with this. Am I missing something? My next question is what is the best way to go about preventing this from happening? So far I have in my XSS checking class:

I've got a weird problem with loading Flashvars into my flash application. I tried to isolate the code and try it in an other document, but the object returned is still empty.This is my HTML code:
<div id="Div1">
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="630" height="671" id="testApp" align="middle">[code]......
It show begin nicely in the console window of Chrome, but it does not print the flashvars.
I wrote a simple flash loader that loads external swf and then calls javascript function to show div containing flash. I need to pass flashvars to loaded swf. I have read that I just need to use query string when loading to pass variables: externalswf.swf?var1=val1&var2=val2
BUT there is a problem. External swf can be very big and I'd like it to be cached by flash engine. It seems it's impossible in case of url parameters ?var1=&var2=& because those vars often change.Is there other ways to pass vars into inner swf. (I cannot change inner swf and I know only one thing - it use vars passed via flashvars mechanism
I've been following tutorials on using FlashVars and they all seem really simple but as yet none have worked!

I usually deal with flashvars on the html page, but in this case, i have no access to the html page. All my search results regarding passing querystrings all have some reference to the html so I'm trying to see if this is even possible.
I've been searching everywhere and I can't find a solution. I use swfobject and flashvars and whenever I use flashvars the dynamic text color won't change. If I put my variable inside the fla timeline, the text color changesHere is my setRGB code:

I'd like to be able to generate certain data XML file through PHP based on variable that embedded in html page swf sends or request. I heard that it can be achieved by assigning FlashVars. I created a flash gallery which loads all content based on data from XML. However, I need to load a different content using the same flash gallery based in which html page the swf(gallery) is embedded. I can generate new XML through PHP if swf will send a variable to PHP which can be read as unique. I need to create a mechanism where the embedded swf send this unique variable.
