Actionscript 3 :: Use The Underscore Character In A URLVariables Variable Name
Jan 9, 2012
Is it possible to use the underscore character in a URLVariables variable name? For instance, the following code outputs "my%5Fusername=foo" instead of "my_username=foo".
import flash.net.URLVariables;
var variables : URLVariables = new URLVariables("my_username=foo");
trace(variables.toString());
Just as in the trace, the "%5F" shows up instead of the underscore in the request. Is there some way I can get the underscore character to show up instead?

In the following example (yes, I am coding on my timeline while I try to work this out - I know, I know) I am loading an SWF in an HTML page and then directing the SWF to get the query parameters from the current URL. The query parameter will contain the source for the video to play.
This seems straight forward to me but I cannot get myURL = urlVars.videoloc; to work. More specifically, urlVars.videoloc seems to be undefined rather than holding the query parameter from the URL. All other variables are correct; both wholeURL and urlVars are defined.[code]...

Is it possible to check a TLFTextfield for any underscores "_", then replace all underscores with spaces? I have looked around the web a bit, though sadly only found very few websites detailing how to create such a function.
I recently began using this function to gain the currentURL of the swf:
ActionScript Code:
var currentURL:String = String(ExternalInterface.call(" function(){ return document.location.href.toString();}"));
It appears that this function works in Firefox, but in other browsers seems to fall flat, would be useful to know why.

I am having a strange issue where I have created a MovieClip in the IDE and given it a class name ( MyObject ) and exported for actionscript...this object is created in an external class. This object has a few MovieClip symbols inside, ( MyButton ) and ( MyOtherButton ). After creating a mouse-over event for MyObject and catching the target ( either MyButton or MyOtherButton ), in the listener function, I trace the event.target in hopes that it will output "Object MyButton" or "Object MyOtherButton" but instead, I get "Object MyButton_6" and "Object MyOtherButton_2"...

sample codes. In those codes they are using a verticalChange variable for the time-based character movement.But I can't figure out how this code works and why we needthose calculations - char.dy*timeDiff + timeDiff*gravity?So here is the code:
Code:
// assume character pulled down by gravity
var verticalChange:Number = char.dy*timeDiff + timeDiff*gravity;

I am trying to make a game to learn actionscript. my game is going to have multiple keyframes, ie one for dungeon, 1 for a large map yadda yadda yadda. Things like the character i would like to be available to all keyframes. i am assuming i put the character variable and info in the first keyframe and refer to these via _root in any frame. However if i want to make a dungeon and use the dungeon scene variables i would use this.
right now since i am only on the making a dungeon part i can refer to anything using this or _root. Case: my dungeon scene consists of walls and paths. right now i can do something like if(_root["path" + yPos + xPos]) _root["path" + yPos + xPos].removeMovieClip;
i can also call the same code using this instead of _root and it works. when i add a main new main frame and move the dungeon scene from frame 1 to frame 10, will i still be able to inter use _root and this and have the same effect, or once i move the dungeon scene from frame 1 to frame 10 i will no longer be able to use _root. also i only have 1 layer.

I have a 9 frames image of a character.In other language generally i used to make character animation by looping the array consisting of different frames and drawing each frame when pressing key.What i want to do is when i press left or right key, i want to draw each frame that makes character movement and update x coordinates of frames, and it will appear as character is moving.

I was actually watching a tutorial about how to make a highscore table. The problem is it was done in AS2 and I'm using AS3. I've been searching tutorials for 2 days and so far I've converted what I could. In the AS2 tutorial he uses loadVariables which works for him and I've successfully used URLVariables to pull in my php variables in AS3. But, when he pulls in his variables for instance name1="happy",score1="100", he uses the set command and these variables can automatically be referenced by var1 and var2 respectively and can populate the dynamic text fields of his score board.
Set works differently in AS3 and using URLVariables I see the string of name/value pairs and I've split them up with an array, but, when I try to display them AS3 treats these name/value pairs as a value of the array instead of name/value pairs. I understand that you can load URLVariables as name/value pairs, but, how do you get AS3 to treat them as name/value pairs once the string is loaded?Sample code:
var sumString:String = event.target.data;
var sumArray:Array= sumString.split("&");
trace(sumArray); //this shows the whole array string

I have tried several different ways, but it seems that it never sends the empty array value to the server
_vars["myObject[array_list][]"] = null;
_vars["myObject[array_list][]"] = [];
It only seems to work if I provide a value (which I am trying to avoid). What I would like for it to do is send the url param: myObject[array_list][]=& (i.e. an empty value)

I have a URLVariables object (variables) that I'm setting its properties this way. [code]But the properties differ so I want to just pass an object in the following format and have it set the property names and values correctly.{fname: "fname", lname: "lname", address: "address"}I tried a forloop like this, but it's not working. Not sure exactly how I achieve the same thing as setting the properties manually.[code]

I am currently trying to write a simple class that handles form validation with a backend script, how the backend script works is that you POST a variable type and it's value and an XML is returned with any errors. The problem is, I want to be able to dynamically generate the variable names so that they don't have to be hard coded into the class. Is this possible?for example:instead of
ActionScript Code:
var urlVariables:UrlVariables = new UrlVariables();
urlVariables.first_name = "foo";

I am attempting to make a flash object that receives name/value pairs to a swf that resides inside a LCMS. There is some documentation on the topic from the lcms, but very little support. The documentation says to instantiate the flash class called URLvars (which doesn't exist, so I'm using URLVariables) and says to use this code with the following example if the name/value pair is baseColour = 0x1c617D (essentially, then, the value of the variable baseC would be 0x1c617D):
var thisURL:String = _url;
var vars:URLvars = new URLvars(thisURL);
var baseC:Number = vars.data_obj.baseColour;
I tried to do this in a very simple object, but it will not pull the name/value pairs from the LCMS

Is there a way to return URLVariables from a function
eg:
function varsLoaded():URLVariables {
var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
variables.var1 = 'string1';
[Code]....
Now what I would like to do is assign "variables" to a variable:
var theVar = varsLoaded();
trace(theVar.var1);
Obviously the code above isn't correct; just to illustrate what I'm hoping to accomplish.

I got a problem with URLVariablesprobably better to show by example
Code:
for each(var foo:String in fooArray){
variables.foo = foo;
}
this unfortunately doesn't work as intended as the old foo variable in the URLVariables get overridden each time.Thus when I output the variables as suchTried looking around the net for it but couldn't find anything. Also it seems logical enough that the variable gets overridden and I wouldn't really question it if it wasn't that ive been told the querystring should contain multiple definitions of the foo variable...

ActionScript Code:
//request is made to PHP script
function completor(evt:Event):void {
var getor:URLLoader = URLLoader(evt.target);//works
var vars:URLVariables = new URLVariables(getor.data);//doesn't work!
}
getData.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completor);
The first line outputs something like "&var1=something&var2=something_else". I just can't get why when I try to parse the data from the loader object into variables (second line) Flash simply stops and all the code after doesn't get executed.

Does anyone have a way (or an alternative to) to get code below to work on local, windows if that matters, files (so not served on a http server)?If I use code below, the IOError eventhandler is triggered (it appearantly cannot deal with the ?testing=true trailing the filename)If URLRequestMethod is set to POST, the external file loads but its loaderInfo.parameters do not contain given parameters from the URLVariables object.
Code below does work on localhost so in essence it's OK, right?I can have the loaded file poll the parent or whatever to retrieve variables or push variables after Event.COMPLETE but that does not seem as elegant...
var l:Loader = new Loader();l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener( IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, onError );var u:URLRequest = new URLRequest( "somefile.swf" );u.method = URLRequestMethod.GET;var d:URLVariables = new URLVariables();d.testing = "true";
u.data = d;
l.load( u );addChild( l );
function onError( e:IOErrorEvent ):void{ trace( e );}
