Php :: Use SWFObject To Embed A Flash Object In Page And Pass Variables
Feb 28, 2011i am wanting to know how much I can be sure that users of my website will not be able to pass bogus variables to my Flash movie. Basically I will have some features available to certain users and I realise that for the average user they will not know anything about how to send spoof vars but is it possible for someone to change the variables sent using SWFObject when a page loads and thus be able to use the functionality that I am trying to disable for them.I have a PHP (my_flash_movie.php) page that calls a function from an included globals.php file to determine if the user can see the restricted functionality is_ user_a_subscriber($_SESSION['user_id']); which returns 1 or 0. This 1 or 0 is then passed to Flash which enables or disables certain features. I dont want someone to be able to send a 1 instead of a 0 basically. This isnt a site where security is critical and the functionality that is disabled is not really critical either so wouldnt be too bad if this happened but im just curious about this and wondering if I should think of another way to pass these vars that might be more hidden.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Should "local" Variables/object Ever Need To Be Marked For Garbage Collection
Jul 1, 2011If I have a variable that is declared within a method of a class, should that variable EVER need to be marked for garbage collection (set to null).
for example:
Code:
public class MyClass extends MovieClip
{
public function MyClass():void
[code]....
I am making a 24/7 kiosk app and am noticing that the "pages" I load from the library using the above technique continually increases the memory usage (using Monster Debugger 3 and testing the SWF from within Flash Pro CS5 on a Mac.)
As I understand it "myVar" are the only references to each "SomeObject" object that gets instantiated. Shouldn't the fact that myVar is local mean that SomeObject should be available for garbage collection after each new page is loaded?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Getting Variables From Within An Object?
Feb 19, 2011There is the code that makes up the major part of the game, and then there is an object for the game board which I kept separate because it required a lot of code of its own to handle pieces on the board, change perspective, and so forth. From the main game code I have no problem accessing information in the game board. I can get the information about an object of apiece on the board, for example, by addressing it astrace(gameBoard.aPieceObjects[x][y].visible) BUT if I want to get information about the main game from the gameBoard object I can't seem to do it. For example, to remove a fog of war I need to know how far a player can see which is information that is kept in the main code in an array of possible players. addressing it as trace(parent.player[i].adVision) gives me an error that there is no such property. The same is true if I use "root" or "this.parent" instead of just "parent".
I know that I could set it in the main game code, but this would mean making duplicate copies of lots of variables which I would prefer not to do. Especially since my program is already not very efficient due to sloppy planning (this is my first real programming project in quite a few years).

Actionscript 3 :: Use MouseEvent For Getting Object`s Public Variables?
Sep 5, 2011I have a simple problem which is not easy at the moment. this is a text field class which add a text field to a movieclip (passed from root class) and also save(buffer) some data (like xml file name) in it`s public variables:
package src {
import flash.display.Shape;
import flash.display.MovieClip;[code]............
.. now I use a for loop to add instance of that class to a movie clip on stage:
for (var i:int = 0; i<Bunker[0]["trans0size"]; i++) {
menuData[i] = new menuitem00(i, menu_mc, Bunker[0]["transfile0" + i]);// pass i , a movieclip named menu_mc and an xml file name
menuData[i].name00 = Bunker[0]["transtitle0" + i]; // pass text
menuData[i].activateFlag = true; // set actveFlag to true
menuData[i].init(); // run init() inside the instance. it adds textfield to the menu_mc and also set name00 as Text for the textField
}[code].........
I want to get "xml00" var from that instance on the stage by mouse click but, trace (evt.target.xml00); is not working .. also trace (evt.target.name00); is not working. I can get everything like .alpha or .text from txt00 but not other variables in my object.

Data Integration :: Adding Variables To LoadVars Object?
Apr 27, 2007I have an application that reads a PHP script and populates the Flash applets using the following on frame 1:
[Code]...
A combobox (created with the returned data) is created on frame 61. When a selection is chosen in the combobox I need to add the value returned from the combobox to the variable catvar, add this variable to the LoadVars object and run the script again. It seems to set c.catvar initially but when I use the 'sendAndLoad command the second time c.catvar isn't included. Is it possible to add variables to a LoadVars object created
on frame 1 from frame 61?
ActionScript 1/2 :: Object Variables (arrays), Persisting To A New Keyframe?
May 4, 2009After unexplainable problems with external class files, I'm trying another way of doing what I need to do: an Object variable declared in the fla file. Well, this has its own set of problems. The big picture is: I need to get user data and populate fields in their profile when they sign on. Then save changes to their profile during the session, add new users and make changes to their profiles. Pretty normal stuff.
Here's the problem I'm having with the object.
Frame 1 Script:
/* Define the object to use as an associative array.*/
var Person:Object = new Object();// Define a series of properties.Person.HomName = "Joe";Person.HomEmail = "joe@gmail.com";
Then go to a new keyframe, where I have my fields that need to be populated
Script:
EnterName.text = Person.HomName;EnterEmail.text = Person.HomEmail;stop();
When I compile, I get this error twice (once for each field) "The property being referenced does not have the static attribute."
What does the mean and how do I fix it?
Here is a link to the source file if you care to look.
[URL]
The only way I've been able to get variable data from one script to another is through a _global.variable. Is this the only way? No arrays or objects vars?
Thanks in advance for all who assist. Some day soon I hope to be able to return the favor!
Flex :: Object Doesn't Look Up Scope Tree For Variables?

Actionscript 2.0 :: Combine Strings +variables To Be Read As An Object?
Feb 3, 2010I have these movies already existing in my actionscript code: inner_mc AND gallery_mc.So - I attach my library movie clip: called "link_box", and name it link_box0 and so on through the loop.
-->
for (i=0; i<numimages; i++) {
inner_mc.gallery_mc.attachMovie("link_box", "link_box"+i, i);
Now I want to create a new movieclip called thumbnail0 and so on, to the newly attached movieclip.
This is my attempt: this.movieHolder = inner_mc.gallery_mc.link_box+i.createEmptyMovieClip("thumbnail"+1, i+1);
When i try:trace(this.movieHolder ) it says undefined for all times it loops through.
Whats the syntax to combine strings and variables so that the result is seen as an object name ?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing Stage Variables From Class Object
Oct 11, 2010I was wondering if there is a simple way to access variables from a class object, where the variables are not actually a part of that class. So if you had an array defined on the first frame of the stage, and added some elements to it, you could use the methods of the custom class to manipulate the array's data.
Stage Frame 1
Code:
var myArray:Array = new Array( "apple", "banana", "pear" );
var myClass:someFunctions = new someFunctions();
myClass.addValue( "orange" );
myClass.sortValues();
[Code] .....
It might not seem logical as to why you would ever want to do that, but it's a very simple example, and it's the means I'm after, not the result. I'm creating a list of functions available to execute by a user via an input field. To keep things simple I made them the methods of a class. The issue, however, is that these methods need to manipulate objects which are on the stage, added and removed by a separate controller class. Passing the objects by reference to the class as a parameter would not be viable with what I'm trying to do either.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Send Off Multiple Variables In An Object (from A Class) To The FLA File?
Feb 13, 2009I have the livedocs wide open and I still can't figure out how to send off multiple variables in an object (from a class) to the FLA file...[URL] The setup: I have a class that extends EventDispatcher. I created an Object called _pass, public var _pass:Object;. In my last function (everything is cool up until now), I have four variables that need to be passed to the main fla. Let's say they're param1, param2, param3, param4.
It was explained to me that I could use the public var _pass:Object; by first creating an instance of the object like so, _pass = { param1, param2, param3, param4 }; (each param is available in the function). Having setup an object instance, I could then dispatch the object to read from within my fla: dispatchEvent(new Event(Event.COMPLETE));.
But I get these errors:
1084: Syntax error: expecting colon before comma.
1083: Syntax error: rightbrace is unexpected.
As the livedocs show, you can use an associative array (with braces and a colon), but I don't need that. I just need to pass my variables that are pre-made to the FLA.

Jun 15, 2010I'd like to easily convert a string of say "dog=Sam&cat=Garfield&mouse=Cheese" into an object of strings.
The object would contain the variable "dog" equal to "Sam", its variable "cat" will be "Garfield", and of course "mouse" the string "Cheese".
There are a number of ways to parse this, but what is the simplest way? I know when you use a URLLoader object, you can give it a dataFormat of URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES and then it automatically converts the data into an object.
