I have one function "Login" and function "_urlSended" inside of function "Login". So i want that sub function returned value as a parent function. I just want that script to work

I'm trying to make a login function that receives the username and password as arguments, does all the proper URLRequest and URLLoader stuff inside it, and retrieves some values from the database. Then, it puts those values inside an object (a little associative array really) and returns them. I've put 'trace' sentences all over the function, and it seems to be working without a problem and is retrieving the right values from the database. However, when I try to assign the returned value with something like:

I am trying to have the function toggleClick return powerData. I need to store powerData in a variable and have it passed to another function to do calculations.
Inside the function toggleClick, I am assigning powerData to houseArray[e.currentTarget.name.toLowerCase()];
var powerData:int = houseArray[e.currentTarget.name.toLowerCase()];
I tried just to write return powerData--but it breaks the program.
// function toggleClick
function toggleClick(e:MouseEvent) {
// Store "Power" Values of House Objects in Array
[code].....
I feel like this should be correct but the trace always returns 'undefined'
PHP Code:
function loadXML(xmlFile:String):XML{ var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); var xmlData = new XML(xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest(xmlFile))); return xmlData;}var xmlData:XML = loadXML("xml/nav.xml"); trace(xmlData.link.image.text() [0]);

I'm developing an AIR app that requires a menu to show only during the first run. In it the user will be able to choose the desired language for the app to run in.
I'm displaying this menu without a problem but I need it to stay visible until the "select language" comboBox is changed and then return the selected choice's data value.
how to return a value only after the combo box is changed.
function promptFRMenu():String{
FRMenu.enabled = FRMenu.visible = true; //when I detect the app is running for the
// first time, the dialog box is enabled

I'm just trying to make a simple function that will return all the data from my SQLITE database as an array. But it looks like when my function is returning the array, the SQL statement is actually still executing... so it's empty... Does anyone have a suggestion? Or am I just going about this whole thing wrong.I know I could just have the event listener functions outside this function, and they could then set the data. But i'm trying to make a AS3 Class that holds all my SQL functions, and It would be nice to have everything for this particular function just in one function, so it can return an array to me.
public function getFavsGamesArray():Array
{
getFavsArraySql.addEventListener(SQLEvent.RESULT, res);
[code].....
I'm having some troubles with the use of interface and inheritance in AS3. I've done lots of OOP in the past and what I'm trying to do seems obvious to me, but doesn't work in AS3. The question is : Is it possible to override a function that return an Object of class A, and make it return an Object of Class B which extends A ? It seems not to be possible, since I'm getting a signature error in Flash, when compiling. For example, the following set of class do not compile (the code in function definition doesn't matter):

I'm using an AMF service that was built by someone else. Basically what happens is that some info is passed to the AMF service and it returns true or false.I want to be able to pass in various info to the a function that calls the AMF service(submitTracking) and then get the true or false value returned in onResultSubmit to be passed back to submitTracking.
var screen:String;

I have an AS3 function that loads and audio file and then plays it. I have the pre-loader for the first audio file working - now I need to run the pre-load function before the 2nd audio file starts.

myMusic.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, playMusicNow, false, 0,true);
myMusic.load(soundFile, myContext); //This code works

I am trying to return an int value from actionscript inside a symbol.
function flytt():void{
var flyttInMb:int=Math.random() * 8;

This is the code I have tried for returning the flyttInMb to the actionscript that is the game, instead of inside one of the symbols, and what I get is this: Return value must be undefined.
I got canvas objects stored in an array. Every canvas has it's name property.Is there a way to return a specific name?Actually I need an index number from that array, where I pass a name property of object inside this array (name is taken from event). Something like this:x = array.indexOf (canvasName=event.currentTarget.name)
View 2 RepliesI am trying to find the index from an array using a loop function, but I am getting an error:

So, in my base flash file I have movieclips playing inside of a container.
They are cued from external .swf files.
When one is pushed another checks to see if that movie is at its "midframe" and then plays the remainder of that movie before playing the movie that was pushed.
ALL OF THIS, works fine. The problems is that I have a button inside of these movieclips that I need to play the remainder of the movie to then return to the main menu.
This is the code on the buttons which cycle through the movieclips:
on (release) {
if (_root.currMovie == undefined) {
_root.currMovie = "illustration";
container.loadMovie(illustration);
[Code].....
If I wanted the movie to only return to to the main menu I could use this code, but it's flawed for two reasons:
on(release){
_root.gotoAndPlay(1);
}
a. This doesn't play the rest of the movie before returning to the main menu.
b. Once it returns you to the main menu, none of the other movies will play again.
I currently have my own class, for arguments sake, lets say it's called User and is for logging into my own system.
I would like to call a function from the user class called, say, login(), which would send the username and password attributes to a service (in my case, PHP), and then get the data back with the response (either successful or unsuccessful).
This would ideally make my code behave like this:
Code:
var user1:User = new User("Jim", "password");
var loggedIn:Boolean = user1.login();
[Code]....
I don't know of a way of getting the login function to return a boolean based on the result of the HTTPservice it sends, so does anyone know of a better way of doing this?
I have done this same thing in ActionScript 3, but am not familiar with ActionScript 2, which I am forced to use for this project. I am loading products into a SWF via XML and attempting to add a click event to each dynamically-created movieclip. Simply tracing the text from a node in XML will do for now. I'd like to assign a property called "desc" or "description" to each movieclip and have it trace that property's value when clicked. Here is the relevant portion of my code as it stands:
ActionScript Code:
var iXML:XML = new XML();
iXML.ignoreWhite = true;
[Code].....
Anyway, I have a function that goes through an XML file, looking for a specific value. If it finds it, it should return the node that contains that value. However, I'm having trouble with the whole return part of it.My code is:
Code:
thisExpando.onRelease = function() {
trace("is this me? " + this._name);

I'm communicating to these movie clips with another program via binary sockets.For the first set of movie clips: when it recieves its instance name, and a second number (InstanceName+#) from the socket, the named movie clip will jump to the frame corresponding with that number. for ex:if the incoming data from the socket is (mc7+3), then movieclip 7 will jump to frame 3.
For the second set of movie clips: when it recieves its instance name, and a second number (InstanceName+#) from the socket, the named movie clip will move location across the screen, by the y coordinate moving to the # given by the socket...thats a little confusing. for ex: if the incoming data from the socket is (mc4+500), then movieclip 4 will move so that it's y coordinate is at 500.[code]...

I basically have a class which loads a set of MovieClip objects and provides accessor functions to return them.[code]Obviously this doesn't work, but it gives an idea of what I'm trying to do. I want to return a MovieClip to the calling code only if the object has been loaded.
View 2 RepliesIt doesn't appear to be possible to get the return type of a function. Is this correct?
View 1 RepliesI've run into a bit of a snag on this slideshow I'm trying to create. My plan involves adding movie clips from the library by attaching them to an empty movieClip. Then using setInterval and a variable as a counter, it increments in the function. When the number reaches "20" the first movieclip is removed and the next one is displayed. Here is my code:
ActionScript Code:
createEmptyMovieClip("canvas_mc", 1);
canvas_mc._x = 75;[code]....
//How do you bring on the second slide when the first is removed? So, my problem is that I'm thinking that the return value from my function should be 20 but instead I get 0 in the trace statement.My plan was if it equaled 20 to bring the next slide out from the library, thus moving forward with the slideshow.
In the code below - fRequest_activate initiates a sendAndLoad - all fine and dandy. Thing is - I want to be able to return a value from this function that indicates whether the server response was satisfactory - and I can't work out how to to it.Because the onLoad function is nested within my fRequest_activate function it has all got a bit messy - and just doesn't work - how do I pass the status from an asynchronous server call - which at the moment is picked up by the onLoad callback, back to my original function? - or should I just approach this problem in a different way? All I want to do is call one function - and know if it has been successful or not in talking to my server.
Code:
function fRequest_activate():String {
var lvEmail_send:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
var lvEmail_response:LoadVars = new LoadVars();[code]...............
I'm trying to define a variable as a function that loads a text file, like this:
ActionScript Code:nouns = loadFile( "nouns.txt" );
The problem is I can't see how to get "loadFile" function to return the value because I have to use that event listener function to tell when the load is complete, then I can't return from inside the listener function... how can this work?
[Code]...
I was just curious if you HAVE to assign the return value of a function to something in order to preform operations on it.
Code:
something.getClip().onRelease = function() {
//
}
Thats probably illegal right? It's illegal in C++, but theres usually a way to get around it like.. (getFocusClip()).onRelease. Or should I just forget it and do it the right way:
Code:
var tempClip:MovieClip = something.getClip();
tempClip.onRelease = function() {
//
}
Ok, I have a function that creates a button, it takes the paramaters
bX, bY, bcColor, bbColor, bHeight, bWidth, bHandle;
here is my function
Code:
function createButton(bX:Number, bY:Number, bcColor:Number, bbColor:Number, bHeight:Number, bWidth:Number, bHandle:MovieClip)
{
[Code]....
some reason when I try to hide Handle, it doesn't do it, & trace's dont do anything either it is suppost to create the button & store it in any handle I give it
