I have spend hours searching it over internet but i have found only codes which solves this problem in Action Script 2.0 like this http:[url].........and i want to solve it out with action script 3.0. My problem is that i simply want to communicate between two separated .swf files in one HTML page.

i have made up a php page (you can find here) that retrieves data from a mysql database and well should send it to my flash application using arrays viaCode:loadVariablesNum("get.php", 0, "POST"); (note that at the end of the long string on my php page there is a &maxx=21 (that will be used to show the maximum number of items in the arrays i want to transfer)well then when i try and start debugging my actionscript, i can fugure out that the data has actualy been recieved from the php code because i have _root.maxx == 21 is true but the remaining data i intended to transfer in arrays is not transfered : _root.xpos[1] == 9.5 is false.

View 1 RepliesI'm using a RegExp that finds words with a hash in front such as #example .

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to find if a text field with text seperated by commas contains certain text.
if (myText.text == "three") {
trace("true"); //if myTxt.text is "three"

}
Is there a way to find in the above example, if "three" is contained within the text field?
I need to make something like login component... but only with "number codes" (not USER and PASSWORD). The user must insert a codenumber (let's say: "aHnjk68"), and, if this code number is in a txt file, then go to some frame, ok? Now, I use something like that (without using a TXT file):
on (release) {
if (codenumber eq "YujK3" or codenumber eq "KienK7") {
_level0.gotoAndPlay(215);

is there a way to make flash load or search for 1 of the numbercodes in the TXT? And when flash find the value (or numbercode) then go to some frame.
Im making a game in which you controll some gattling AA guns..you start of with one and can later buy more...the gattling gun itself consist of 3 different movie clips and 1 text box (dynamic)WHen you buy more gattling guns later on , i just want to duplicate the original gattlinggun and let you place it anywere on the ground you want...
Firing is all good and dandy, each gun aims at mouse cursor and spews out bullets.. but for added realism ive made it so that each gun Can Jam (short delay befre can fire again)this does not work however because (as far as i can tell) what happens in 1 movie also happens in the others, so if 1 jams(the dynamic text box changes to JAM) all turrets get JAM in them(sticky i know)... now i want to know how do i make each movie completly separate , so they do not inherit properties from eachother...

View 1 RepliesI'm wondering if theres a way I can turn a variable of strings (separated by commas) into an array?I'm using the loadVars object to import variables from a text file that I'd like to import to flash as an array.For example if the variable I import from the text file looks like this:&myVar=charlie,dog,cat,test&I'd like to get it into an array in Flash like thismyArray = new Array["charlie","dog","cat","test"];

I'm not sure how I did it but I separated the symbol from the white background. but now I have all these bits around the edges left over that are white and I don't know how to clean it up. I tried the eraser, I tried painting over it, I tried selecting it to cut or delete. not one of these things worked.

I've a regex that matches comma separated numbers with an optional two digit decimal part in a given multiline text.
/(?<=s|^)d{1,3}(,d{3})*(.d{2})?(?=s|$)/m
It matches strings like 1, 12, 12.34, 12,345.67 etc successfully. How can I modify it to match a number with only the decimal part like .23?
EDIT: Just to clarify - I would like to modify the regex so that it matches 12, 12.34 and .34
And I am looking for 'stand alone' valid numbers. i.e., number-strings whose boundaries are either white space or start/end of line/string.
find the suitable regular expression to validate a string that has comma separated numbers, for e.g. '1,2,3' or '111,234234,-09', etc. Anything else should be considered invalid. for e.g. '121as23' or '123-123' is invalid. I suppose this must be possible in Flex using regular expression but I can not find the correct regular expression.

I have some files in my src directory, some are .class files (Java class files) and some are .properties files, when I create the Adobe air native installer these files are not included. Why is that? How can I work around that?
Also it excludes .mxml files, but that's good. I'm sure that's related, how to change what it includes or excludes?
I have created a flash file that allows you to click on a thumbnail image and larger image appears ontop of a tshirt. The same way as a gallery would work. The images and thumbnails are pulled in through xml. However I have a problem, I need the images that appear on the tshirts to be .png files or gif files as the tshirt colour can be changed. At the moment my flash file will only display jpegs! I dont knwo why. The jpegs leave me with a white background, so I need the transparency of a png/gif. My actionscript is:

My users upload a certain kind of text file that sometimeshas references to images stored locally on their hard drive. I needto check this file either on the server or within a flash app tosee if it has these references and then grab those images in aflash app to upload to my server.So I can use FileReference easily enough to have users uploadlocal images. But FileReference requires users to select their files with a dialog box. I can't have that. Myusers wouldn't know where to look and there are typically way toomany files, sometimes with the same name but in differentdirectories.
I can also just use URLLoader with a local URL, I guess I canprobably just use Loader too? That works great. The problem here isI can't communicate with both the server and the local filesystemin the same flash application due to Flash's security sandboxrestrictions. So I can get out of those security restrictions byplacing or editing a trust file in designated locations on variousOSes. I then need to install this trust file which is more invasiveand confusing to users then I want to be...Java's method of accessing local files from a web applet bysimply signing the applet with a certificate and having a dialogbox popup where the users grants access is ideal. Is there anything

View 6 RepliesI was messing around with some old examples, and I ran into an unfinished example where several 30k-100k XML files are loaded and stored as a string into an Array. The code looks basically like:[code]Basically, when I trace the 'this', the order of the files that are loaded is off. Out of about 10 tries, about 3 times the order is perfect. The remaining 7 times, the order is a bit off. Does anybody have a suggestion on how to ensure the files are loaded prior to the next file being loaded? I tried placing a while loop that basically delays the clock for a few milliseconds, and that didn't work either. Besides, that is not really a good solution to arbitrarily waste clock cycles.
View 6 RepliesI installed Flash CS4 Professional trial version for school use. It wouldn't install successfully. I deleted the font files the troubleshooting guide said to, tried again, but gave up. (I'm afraid to run regedit and mess up everything else I have loaded.) (I previously had the Fireworks CS4 trial version loaded, then uninstalled it.) My problem is this- I have it running, but it saves files and then they can't be opened, even if I use the save function often- it's worse when I create the file, test the movie and then save.If I try to open it again, it says "cannot open file." Once it opened a copy I had saved, and it appeared blank, even though it was 544 kb file size. I only need it for a few more days, one more assignment and I'm afraid my previous files are corrupt. I have Windows Vista Home Edition.
View 4 RepliesI'm working on making a pretty chunky game engine for games I plan on making, but I was wondering if you make external AS files unopenable such as .lib files, so that if I give it to a friend that wants to use it, he/she cannot change my code. Is there anyway to make external AS files unopenable? Also, obfuscation isn't an option for this problem as it only stops the people who hack the finished product, not stopping people who have access to the actual files.
