Loading Child Swf As3
Mar 18, 2010
I've been given an fla to make some changes too. Basically its a fairly long timeline animation with sound. So far I've successfully added a few button functions for sound etc.. but one has got me stumped.One of the buttons needs to load a child swf. I'm using the code below but I'm recieving an error - 'Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference'. I believe this may be refferring to an object that isn't set yet but I have no idea which one it is:[code]

I have a picture on the stage that has multiple items that have hotspots/links over them that should open a child swf on top of the background and show details about the items. then have a button in the child swf itself that removes the child from over the background so the user can click on another item etc.I found this code in someone's post and I am trying to modify it so that works for multiple swf files...it currently works for a single swf.I wan to pass the name of the button in front of the .swf in the URLRequest to have the same name as the instance name of the referring button. But I can't figure it out. Here is the code I am using on the stage

I have a.swf, which is the SWF file for my main application, and it's trying to load in b.swf, which contains some additional resources as well as some Actionscript. a.swf lives on sub1.my.domain.com and b.swf lives on sub2.my.domain.com (both on the same domain, just different subdomains.) In a.swf, I've loaded the crossdomain.xml from domain.com and also added the following code into both a.swf and b.swf:
Code:
Security.allowDomain("*");
Security.allowInsecureDomain("*");
Do I need to load the crossdomain.xml in b.swf as well to prevent a security error or is having

I'm confused on the parent/child thing. Seems like the "child" statement would refer to the file I'm loading, not the file I'm in? I want the file I'm IN to kill ITSELF when it loads the next swf (it's child?)And then there are other times when I want them to stack one on top of the other. I've added comments above each set of button code to explain./This code is in home swf. Handles portfolio buttons. I do not want to unload Home.swf, so this works fine.
scene1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, myRequest);
scene2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, myRequest);
scene3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, myRequest);[code]...............................................

I have a portfolio page with several trailer thumbnails (a portfolio list). If you click on each, the page changes and you see the trailer in a video player, plus more info about the film. I used two frames in the timeline: the first frame has the clip with the thumbnails (port_list). The second frame has a movie clip container and the video player. The idea is that pressing the respective button from port_list will load the details of that movie and the movie into the video player. I am using this script:
ZSQ_but.onRelease = function (){
_parent.gotoAndStop("por_details");
myplayer.contentPath = "videos/ZSQ.flv";
por_details_cont.attachMovie("ZSQ_details","ZSQ_de tails",0);
}
Even though the script looks alright (and works alright if at the root level), it will not work from the child clip. What am I doing wrong??

I have a Main.swf that loads an external Child.swf, also the Child.swf loads some external files. My problem is that once the Main.swf loads the Child.swf. The paths that Child.swf reads (for it's external files) are no longer normal and it reads the paths from the Main.swf. (Main.swf is in another folder). Is there a way to lock the paths of the child.swf dynamically from the Main.swf?

I'm getting a bald patch on my head from frustration with the following problem. I have a parent AS3 swf which loads in a AS2 swf like so;
stop();
var ldr:Loader = new Loader();
ldr.load(new URLRequest( "as2child.swf"));
addChild(ldr);
contained in the AS2 file is the following script which loads in jpegs when the user clicks the next button, etc.
[Code]...
however when you view the AS2 swf via the AS3 swf it does not seem to load in the jpgs when requested.
I need to retain the AS2 file so cannot rewrite in AS3 as the image loading thing is only a small part of the AS2 file.

I have a class that creates a navBar with some buttons. Each button loads an external .swf and everything is working just fine BUT the code is really awkward. I also wanted to use TweenLite to add transitions from section to section.I also wanted to handle the "section change" process from yet another Class (SectionChange) but whenever I try it I fail miserably. Here's what I have (including the vars), without the SectionChange Class, that's working.
private var _app:Sprite;
private var _navData:Array;
private var _loader:LoadDisplayObject;[code]....
I don't know what I'm doing wrong here but I get tons of errors with this code.
edit: Now that I'm adding the _sectionChange to the display list I only get the following error: TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter child must be non-null.

I have an issue where removechild won't infact remove a child. I think its something to do with my dropTarget.parent issues. The concept of the code is that you drag a source onto a destination. When you drop the source onto the destination you will get a text field that says "Hello" or "Goodbye". The objective i want to achive is that once i drop a source onto the destination, removechild will remove any previouse textfields added. This is proving difficult.

I have a parent swf with three buttons: next button, back button, ticker on/off button.I have three child swfs, each with a ticker mc. When I click on ticker button on parent swfit dispatches a custom event which brings ticker MC on stage and thus ticker becomes visible (ticker off button displaces it out of stage by changing the value of ticker_mc.y).
the problem I am facing is when ticker is on and I click next or back button to load next or previous child swf, the ticker goes off. How can I make sure that ticker is on all the time and closes only when I close it. How can a loaded child swf 1 communicate to next child swf, child swf 2, which is currently not loaded, that since the ticker is on on swf 1 so you please keep the ticker on on swf 2 as well?!
I think I know the problem. I have put a default value of ticker_mc = 160 (makes ticker inactive) on every child swf. So, the ticker becomes inactive everytime I load a new child swf. If someone could guide how can I do this, my problem will be solved: When first child swf is loaded, the default value of ticker_mc.y should be 160. I want to hold this value in a variable. When I click ticker active btn, position of ticker_mc changes to 194 so the value of variable should change to 194. When I click next btn, the variable value (160 or 194) should be sent to next child swf and ticker_mc.y should be equal to variable value.
This is the code so far
"Next button"
go_mc.next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playNext);
function playNext(e:MouseEvent):void {
if (swf_no < (clips.length-1)) {
