ActionScript 2.0 :: Identify An Object Passed Into A Function?
Oct 13, 2010In my case I have 6 movieclips and 6 corresponding text fields (all 12 objects are on the main timeline) and the movieclips are named thumb1_mc, thumb2_mc, etcetc, and the text fields are named text1, text2, etcetc.I have a method:mcl_mcl.onLoadProgress = function (targetMC, loadedBytes, totalBytes)in which I need to change the appropriate text file's text depending on which movieclip is targetMC.The trouble is I can't find a way to distinguish which mc it is, so I can't pick which text file to change.I tried using properties but that doesnt work because everything about the movieclip gets obliterated the moment I load something into them.

ActionScript 2.0 :: If Function In Javascript, Variable Passed To Flash?
Jan 24, 2006Basically I want Javascript to pass a variable to Flash according to resolution. I realize my syntax might be off, but something like:
HTML Code:
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
if (screen.width <= 800) {
expand = "false";
[code]....
Trouble is, I'm not sure what to do from here. I don't know exactly what I need to put in the <param> and <embed> tags, and how Flash would detect if the variable was true or not.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Variable Not Being Passed Into Function?
Sep 8, 2005why is my variable not being passed into my function?
Code:

the webAddress variable is from the exact same timeline making it one level up from this function. it traces out correctly too so I know the variable is there... just not getting passed!
ActionScript 3.0 :: Function Variable Not Passed Down?
Jul 26, 2009My code seems to produce an error (7 times - same code) "1120: Access of undefined property xmlMarker." This appears on all occasions where the variable 'xmlMarker' is called outside of the function ('showData') where it was first produced.
Code:
stop();
var placesXML:XML =
<places>[code]............
I have a feeling that I shouldn't refer to the variable as a 'MovieClip', but I am unsure what else to pu thee if that is where the fault lies.On the stage there are several buttons relating to the place names attributes (works perfectly), dependent upon which button is pressed, the scene then jumps to a frame (again this works well), however within that frame there will either be 'myMarker_mc', or myMarker_mc2' (this does not work!).

Actionscript 3 :: Anonymous Class Passed As Variable To Function?
Jun 20, 2011In c++ if I have a function that takes a class I have defined elsewhere as a parameter like so:void moveto(CPoint2D point) { ... }I can invoke it and pass along data to it like this:moveto(CPoint2D(0,0));basically creating the object and invoking it's constructor to be passed to the functionIs there an equivalent to this in AS3?if I have a function like this:function initialize(min:Point, max:Point): void { ... }how do I do something along the lines of :initialize(Point(0,0), Point(10,10))This throws an error im assuming because it thinks I want to cast something to a point and the notation I found earlier to do something similar only seemed to work if using the basic Object class.

Expire Shared Object After Certain Amount Of Time Passed?
Jul 27, 2006I have a flash movie on my index page but as the user navigates through the site and then goes back to the home page, I don't want the intro to replay. I have fixed that using shared object so that if it has already played, it skips to the end of the animation...here is my code:
function VisitCheck() {
var myLocalSO = sharedobject.getLocal("visitRecord");
if (myLocalSO.data.visited == null) {
myLocalSO.data.visited = 1;
gotoAndPlay(3);
trace("visit 1");
} else {
gotoAndPlay(2);
trace("visit2");
}}
VisitCheck();
Works great, except now, the intro animation on the index page NEVER plays again; I would rather have the cookie expire after the user closes the window or a certain amount of time has passed (say 30 minutes).
ActionScript 3.0 :: DOM Object ID Update Not Passed To ExternalInterface.objectID
Jan 13, 2010regarding DOM object name/id updates by JavaScript, and accessing them from flash. Let me explain.
I have made an actionscript that tests if externalinterface.objectid is null. If it is, I call a JavaScript that gives names/id to all unnamed shockwawe-type <EMBED> and <OBJECT> tags.
My problem is that, although the Javascript does what it is supposed to, the SWF's ExternalInterface.objectID property remains null.
In other words, although the DOM is properly updated, that update is not propagated to the ExternalInterface object.
- Is this normal ?
- Can I "reconsctruct" the ExternalInterface object to have it updated too ?
- Could I have my SWF reload itself, and how?
- More generally, what should I be doing to be able to access the newly JS-modified id from my SWF movie ?

Creating Quiz In Flash With Questions Passed Through Flashvars
Oct 13, 2011I am getting questions from the database (just text) and then passing them to flash via flash vars.I want one question to be displayed then the user will answer (text) and click a button and then the next question will be displayed for them to answer and so on.I am not hoping for overly specific advice but as I am very new to flash/actionscript am just looking for broad advice (or links ?) on how to approach this. Can I do it all from one frame just using actionscript?I think what I am really after (assuming I am not way off track) is if all the questions should be handled at once which I guess will require some kind of loop that listens for some buttonclick event to move to the next question ..... or be 'reloading' the flash movie and dealing with only 1 question at a time.
