Php :: Process Code In Flash As3 Without Adding Event Listener (as Soon As Flash Discovers It)?
Jul 24, 2011
I'm trying to fetch some data from php to flash and print it in a dynamic text field. I know this might be a silly question but i cant seem to work out how to get flash to process the code text_field.text = data.return_msg; without it needing an event listener.So i want the code to be processed as soon as flash discovers it basically.this is what i have at the moment:
var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables("get_blog_info.php");
// Build the varLoader variable
var varLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader;[code]....
a
nd i get this error:
I am loading data from XML and can create MovieClips to hold the images and text data for each node. However, I can't figure out how to add an onRelease Event Listeners to each MovieClip.
I have recently moved from AS2.0 to AS3.0 and I am trying to get to grips with event handling. I am managing for things like key presses and mouse clicks
I am successfully tracing a string as either "login successful" or "login unsuccessful" from a PHP file on a local host and it traces as working in my Login class. Now I want to listen for the "login successful" string, currently tracing in my Login class and if it works, call an EventHandler in my Main class which will execute the next step.
Here's my code so far
PHP Code:
private function onLogin(e:Event):void { var loader:URLLoader = URLLoader(e.target);
I have a button which adds an Event.ENTER_FRAME listener. Once this listener has been added it's quite possible that the user might click the button several times more. Is the same Event.ENTER_FRAME listener triggered again when the button is clicked again? or does Actionscript ignore the command to create the listener again since the listener is already running?
I'm worried about memory leaks, and I'm worried that Actionscript might create multiple Event.ENTER_FRAME listeners with the same name, but it would suit me best if I could allow the user to click the button as many times as they want.
for one of my project I need to recive some x,y data from a socket connection. I recuired do some movement for moveclips those has the x,y in its bounds. kind of mouseover event.
what I fegured out is, if I can dispatach a event and add a listenr to all my movieclips the moveclips will know that new data recived and it will check that the number and do appropriate action.
but the problem is I can dispatchEvent but if I add a listener to my movieClips it doesn't work.
/// this way works /// function readResponse():void { var str:String = readUTFBytes(bytesAvailable);
I feel like I am not 'getting' something very simple here:I have a bit of AS3 which uses a loop to draw X number of circles which are placed as data points on a 2-dimensional line graph:
Code: var circleSize:uint = 10; var line:Shape = new Shape();
I have an interesting problem that I'm attempting to solve and I could use some pointers.Here's a basic run down of the AS3 script:[code]The problem is that the event listener always pulls the url from the last object in the array when you click any sprite (as would be expected).What is the best way to have the event listener only deal with the specific url of the specific iteration that creates it?
im trying to create a separate class so i can create a custom mouse. But i need to make it so that every time the mouse moves then something happens. as in it dissapers and after 5 seconds the timer resets. I have the code and it works in my .fla file, but im not sure its possible to put it in a class file and have it be the class of the .fla.
On the main timeline, I have placed a movieclip (movieclipone) which contains some content. On frame 85 of movieclipone, there is a new keyframe which contains a movieclip that hasn't previously appeared in the movieclipone timeline, (moviecliptwo) which contains four buttons (btnone, et cetera).Is there a way to have code in the main timeline that attaches listeners to the buttons inside moviecliptwo, which, when pressed, trigger a function that increases a counter and tells movieclipone to go to the next frame? This is the code I am using right now:
i have a movie clip named "contact" inside this movie clip made the same object into a 2nd imbedded movie clip named "em_contact" inside this I did a frame by frame animation and added a new movie clip symbol of a piece of paper named contactbtn_mc on this frame, I added an event listener for a click that acesses on the root level a symbol named contact_mc i told it to go to and play frame 2 that plays out an animation of this object moving into the screen.
my problem here is i asked earlyer on how to stop the em_contact to stop listening for the mouse click once it is clicked. I made the code it come up with no errors but it does not stop the event listener the event listener is still there bellow is my code.
what i want to happen here is for the event listener once it is click to stop listening for that event becuase i have a mouse event inside the "em_contact" movie clip on an object named "contactbtn_mc". and that one has a click event on it as well but when i click on the contactbtn_mc the animation above plays out as well.
Finishing off the code for my interactive top trumps game ... Basically I have a few layers for code as there's so much and one of the layers 'InGame Script' is code that I only want to run when the start button is pressed. Only problem is that by putting the code into an event listener it throws up all sorts of errors.
After adding a mouseListener via Mouse.addListener to my flash movie the mouse wheel event is not bubbling to the browser when the mouse cursor is placed over the flash moviePeople all over google are complaining that in AS3 the event is bubbling and it is hard to stop it but in AS2 I wasn't able to find a solution to get the behaviour just as it is in AS3.Some code:
var mouseListener:Object = new Object(); mouseListener.onMouseMove = function() { trace("mouseMove");
I'm trying to use the following code to add a listener to a text field which clears the field, but I'm getting the error: "Parameter Listener Must be Non-Null" This is the code I'm using:
[Code]...
I should add that this text fields starts out on stage as a dynamic text field. In the code above I am changing its type to input, so that might affect things. I am trying to set up the field so that when a user clicks in the text field, a cursor movie clip appears, and the text that was in the field is erased, and that when they leave the text field and click elsewhere, the text is accepted, the textfield converts back to a dynamic field, essentially "locking" the entered text into the field.
I was wondering if there is such a thing as a mouse over listener.So that it would execute code when the mouse rolls over(and maybe also execute code when the mouse moves away again)
anybody knows how to make event listener for flash exiting? By mean exiting is when a tag that hold the flash object is removed so that you cant see the flash anymore...
I have an event listener applied to an xml load and it currently traces out the values it grabs which is fine, but what I want it to do is return an array for me to use. I have the Array creation and return working from "LoadXML" (it returns the array) but I can't get this to work with an event listener.The event listener runs the "LoadXML" function fine, but I have no idea how to take the returned array for use, this is an example of how my event listener works right now:xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, LoadXML());and my assumption of how I would take the array (this doesn't work):var rArray:Array = xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, LoadXML());so instead I tried the following:
xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, function():Array{ var rData:Array = LoadXML(datahere); return rData;
it loads an external .swf file and is supposed to play it. I've added an event listener to run when the file is loaded. The function it calls moves the video to the bottom most layer so the buttons still show and then plays the file. The problem is the event listener never triggers.
I have a method which registers an event listener to each of the MovieClips in an array I have. The method is inside a class, and so is the listener function. The problem is, I'm getting an error that's says "Access of undefined property handleNavToggle", even though is declared.
I am working on a little video gallery sort of app. The list of videos to be played is in html. my player is in flash. I need to have my flash player receive the video url and then play it. I can pass vars to flash no prob using swfobject or params. but I need a event listener for to be triggered when a new var is passed.
I'm trying to return XML from an event complete back to the main function, but can't figure out how to do it.Here's the functions I'm calling:Main File:
public var mySendAndLoad:SendAndLoad = new SendAndLoad(); mySendAndLoad.sendData(url,variables) The mySendAndLoad class:
I'm thinking of making a movieclip which stops itself at certain points (just with stop(); at certain keyframes in the movieclip timeline), then the user is prompted to continue the clip.
What is the best why to listen for the stopping of the movieclip? I think I want an event listener that detects when the movieclip is stopped, but I don't know if there is one.
Is there some way to call a function when the flash window is closing down?I use ActionScript3 in Flash CS3. I need to delete cookies from SharedObject after closing window.
I cant because it runs off a VideoEvent, not a MouseEvent.The obvious work around is to copy and paste the function and rename this part, or alternativly just make a function such as:
Code: button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,callMyVideoFunction); function callMyVideoFunction (event:MouseEvent) { myVideoFunction(null);[code].....
I have a flash file made up of 2 components really.....an image slider at the top and when i click on the images it loads a new set of images into a container below.
What i want to do is go further and when i click on one of the bottom images i want to replace all the bottom images with new ones in the same container
