Let's Say I Have This Class:

trace(getAverage(1,2,3));
trace(getAverage(1,2,3,4));

is it possible to store a list of params needed for a function in an array and then use that in a funciton call?
[Code]...
or something like that?? Prob have to iterate the array but how do i get the params into the function call? Is this even possible?
I'm having a problem with a menu that is loaded from a xml file. I want to control the onRelease action for every button in the menu from one XML file, but I can't seem to get it to work... The buttons in the menu each have to call a different function with parameters which are declared in the flash file. The trace output shows the right function call, but it just won't fire the function.
This is an example of one of the nodes from my XML file with the function as node attribute:
PHP Code:
<locatie menu="LOCATIE )" label="LOCATIE" functie="showTextpage(myObj.locatie, CurrentProject)"> <image></image> <text></text> </locatie>
And this is my AS which loads the XML and sets up the menu:

I am creating some sort of interactive background and at is current state of development the master constructor function have like 15 parameters that need to be put in. I can add at least 6-8 more and make it really flexible, but I start to wander if this will be such a good idea. I am not sure that the general people that I am developing this class would like to type so many parameters before using it to full potential. So there is only 2 must enter parameters and like 13 that you may want to change or leave the original values. My question is if there is some common practice about this? Is it to many or no? Just for idea this is the function at this point (working ok):
Code:
new Maker(textTest,15,150,200,2,8,3,5,0.3,1.5,4,360,0.003,30);
I have a project that uses a lot of remoting calls and I'm hoping to abstract the process. I've hit a problem with passing parameters to the final call...[code]...
I know how to loop through the ...rest param to obtain their values but I'm struggling at how to construct the final gateway.call() which could have 1 arg or 10.
i have one movie clip named one_mc.And i have one function named thisFunction.to add an event listener, i would code:
one_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_SOMETHING , thisfunction);
1) I want to show a box containing some text when the mouse is OVER it. Of course, when its not over, the box should not appear
2) I want to give parameters to thisFunction in order to use it, the way i prefer!
I must make one eventlistener for MOUSE_OVER and another for MOUSE_OUT? How do I pass parameters for the function when i call it?
I have this custom right-click menu. I need to call the reactOnClick() function with a specific parameter when clicking a specific right-menu item. I want to avoid multiplying the function for each right-click item.
Code: Select all//set up the custom right-click menu
rcnMenu = new ContextMenu();
//the value below is here just for testing purposes,
//the actual value could be anywhere between 3 and 13
var numberOfItemsTakenFromXml:Number = 5;

I'm trying to pass a variable through a function, but I'm getting it's value 0. Here's my code:
thumbLoader.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goToCategory);
function goToCategory(e:MouseEvent) {
trace(c);[code]....
this trace gives me value of 0. Normally I would do goToCategory(c) and inside that category I would get it's value, but in this case I'm calling this function with an event, how can that be done?
var c is declared globally, so I'm using it above this code in different place... is there smth like global $c like in PHP.. or there's some other way to do it?!

What's the proper way to write this line so I can replace the "j" variable with a number and be able to call up the proper mc (i.e. product1_mc)?
I want to monitor a variable. Whenever the variable value changes I want to call a function. In actionscript 2 I can use "watch" but in as3 what can do ?

I need to call a function every number of seconds or so.. I'll just show some code:
Code:
image0.folder = "folder1/";
image1.folder = "folder2/";
[Code]....
basically, what it does is when i click, a block box (textholder), fades in, then after a few seconds (in this case, 2), it fades out again.. it works fine on the first click, but after more clicks, the interval duration seems to be getting smaller, up to a point where it is zero, and nothing happens.
and I need to use another setInterval() function (to call the changeTxt() function), will that affect the setInterval function i have up there now? i've linked an swf, to better show what i mean. [URL]
This would be the code to call a movie:
var fo = new FlashObject( "Movie1_controller.swf",
"Movie1_controller.swf", "591", "480", "7", "#FFFFFF", false,
"best" );
--------------------------
Is there a way to modify that call (maybe using ASP Javascript) so you can call different movies calling the same page with different parameters?. I haven't been able to get this
working. It seems to be that the "FlashObject" call cannot have any variables on it.This is the way I'm trying it:
1. The call to the page would be: http:[url]....
2. Add javascript to get value passed:[code]....
It just doesn't work. The FlashObject.js doesn't seem to like that call.
1) Using the number keypad, the user pushes a series of numbers to an array.
2) Lookup() is called to identify which "code" has been entered.
Code:
myArray:Array= new Array(1,2,3,4);
lookup();
function lookup() {
switch (myArray) {

I'm just getting the hang of AS2 OOP, after avoiding it for all this time, and I have set up my first couple of classes.
One class generates an array, and the other class takes this array, and uses it it to place MC's on the screen, and gives each mc an onEnterFrame function. I have a stack of these onEnterFrame functions, named 'avoidIt1()-avoidIt11()'[code]...
I need a way to call a function from a function. It's not that hard, I know, but the name of the nested function is a variable passed into the first function. Like in setTimer() and other functions in flash, where you have the name of a variable to call. I'm going to have a lot, so doing some cheap if(funcname == blabla){blabla();} won't work.
View 1 RepliesI have to call a .swf having parameters from another flash file. I made this using:

But now I have the need to embed the .swf, not dinamically load from an external url.

I'm currently doing a board game, in which you get asked questions and answer them for points. the questions get loaded from a .txt file. what I'm trying to do is that the questions appear in a random order everytime the game starts. 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:

I have a movieClip named MC, and it's enabled with action script, with the class name MC_Rectangle and a Stage.I override the MC_Rectangle class file in a mc_rectangle.as external file.here is the code:
package{
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;[ code].....
I have new a object in the main stage var
mc_rect:MC_Rectangle = new MC_Rectangle()
in main stage:
1. how can i access the variable "sequence" in "mc_rect"
2. how can i pass parametre from main stage to mc_rect via function setSequence(data:int)?
3. how can i call the function in addSequence() in mc_rect.
in asp.net, i usually use mc_rect.sequenct,mc_rect.setSequence(data), mc_rect.addSequence() to achieve my goals......btw, can function in mc_rect return out result to main stage?
I need to get a javascript var in my Flash application. I like to be able to just set a variable in the javascript (client constraints) rather than define a function.
Can this be done? I am trying to use the ExternalInterface.call()
AS:
ExternalInterface.call("function(){return window.someVar}", null);
JS:
var someVar = "Test";
This does not work and I suspect it is because the ExternalInterface.call() does not like the anonymous function.
I have a function defined in JavaScript like so:
function fadeBack() {
alert("fadeBack called");
};
I call that function from my Flash file like so:
import flash.external.*;
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("fadeBack");
This works in both Safari and Chrome, but for some reason Firefox won't ever call the function. Still, I can't figure this out. How can I fix it?
