pass variables from one flash file to another? Basically there's a flash navigator that has multiple links in it. Once clicked it needs to pass a variable to go to another keyframe in another flash file. I'm guessing the receiving flash needs to be able to receive a variable and if variable == a certain variable it goes to and plays a specific keyframe.

View 1 RepliesI've created a Flash Animation (CS5, ActionScript 3) and converted it to SWF. The flash animation needs the values of 3 variables (defined in the swf timeline) BEFORE it starts running in my Flex application. I've embedded the swf file using swfloader in Flex, but I need to pass the parameters from Flex into Flash before the animation starts. How do I do this?
The way I have my flex code setup below, the variables are not being updated. I get an exception every time it gets to the changeParams function because it can't find "Type", "Num1", etc.
Part of My flash code:
//These 3 variables need to be populated via Flex BEFORE the animation starts...
var Num2:int;
var Num1:int;

View 2 RepliesI've read a variety of pages that describe how to pass a variable into a flash movie (AS3, player = v9) from the html in which it is embedded. This page describes AS3 but neglects to mention what to do with the object and embed tags in the noscript section. Furthermore, I'm not sure the javascript I see generated in my page looks like the example there (the js in my page doesn't check AC_FL_RunContenta against zero)This page is quite long and appears to deal mostly with AS1 and AS2 approaches which I have used before and neglects entirely the newish javascript approach which appears to be used to embed flash these days (i.e., the javascript function AC_FL_RunContent).I was wondering if someone could spell out the proper way to pass in a variable from HTML so that flash can see it in such a way that works even if javascript is disabled, in all browsers, etc., etc.

I am importing some flash vars from my html into my swf.
html: <param name="FlashVars"value="caption1=abc&text3=abc&url3 =xyz/>
and in my flash file i do this to load caption1 etc...
var caption1:String = String(stage.loaderInfo.parameters["text1"]);
It works, but im having trouble with special characters. how to import all my flash vars at once?
I have basic knowledge of Flash and AS3.0. Suppose i have a flash swf file(main.swf). In this main.swf file, i loaded another swf file(sub.swf) by writing the following code snippet in main.swf file as shown below:
var textLdr:Loader=new Loader();
var noteUrl:String = "AddNote.swf";
var noteUrlReq:URLRequest=new URLRequest(noteUrl); textLdr.load(noteUrlReq);
addChild(textLdr);
Now, how to acess the data present in main.swf into sub.swf.Note: Here data represents values/data stored in variables/objects of main.swf file.
I need to pass multiple flash vars into my swf -- I see multiple places in the adobe-generated HTML in which to put the flash vars. While I can do this successfuly for one flash var, I can't for more than one (I'm using something like this at the moment, which works, but cannot be extended URL

View 4 RepliesI am developing an air application where I have to drop an image and save the Image path, width, height to variables and pass those variables to external swf. I load the swf like this:
var myLoader:SWFLoader = new SWFLoader();

myLoader.load(url);
I am getting this error: the way I am passing the URL of the swf is incorrect and not supported in AIR.

I am trying to load an AS2 swf from an AS3 swf. The AS2 swf which was written long back, expects parameters from the timeline(_root). These were passed to it before from HTML using flashvars. Now I am trying to get rid of the HTML pages, by directly loading the AS2 swf from the AS3 swf. However, when I try to load the AS2 swf using the Loader class, the swf loads fine, but the parameters are not getting passed on.
I tried to add the query string to the url parameter I used in the URL request used for the Loader, but that did not work.(Adding URL variables as data to URLRequest did not work either.)
i am trying to load vars from a text file into a load vars object.

but i am having trouble doing this.
i have a textbox called displytext.
_root.displaytext.text = kitchentext.name;
doesnt work

I'm trying to pass variables representing name and email address to a swf file. The swf takes a picture with the users webcam and sends the image to save.php for further processing. Currently I have text fields for the user to enter name and email, but I'd like to eliminate them and add the info behind the scenes. Basically this is what I'm trying to accomplish:
1.Page loads and stores name and email address in variables(index.php).
2.I'd like to pass name and email address variables to flash to be included with the image the swf sends to a php file for processing (save.php)
3.Page loads flash content(take_picture.swf) and does it's thing.
I've got this working in a similar situation using Zend AMF, where the swf gets all the info passed back from another page accessing the database. Here I have the data I need without accessing the database. I've tried many variations using FlashVars, but nothing has worked yet. One thing I seem to be missing is when I publish the fla, there is no ac_fl_runcontent in the html code Flash publishes. And there is no <embed src=... either. This div is the body of the html file Flash gives me:
<div id="flashContent">
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="760" height="1000" id="take_picture" align="middle">
