Flash :: Global Variable

New Variable = Global Variable Not Working
Could someone please explain why, when I add var newArray = _global.nameA[0], and try to trace newArray, it returns undefined, but returns the correct variable with _global.nameA[0]?

ActionScript Code:
xmlData.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
_root.showXML = this;
var comp = xmlData.firstChild.firstChild.childNodes;
_global.nameA = [];
for (i=0; i<comp.length; i++) {
_global.nameA[i] = this.firstChild.firstChild.firstChild.nodeValue;
}
//var newArray = _global.nameA[0];
playButt.onRelease = function() {
trace(_global.nameA[0]);
//trace(newArray);

};
Many thanks in advance

setProperty ("/door-movie", _x, 327);
counter == counter+1;
trace(counter);
}
if (door == 2) {
door = 0;
counter = counter-1;
setProperty ("/door-movie", _x, -100);
}
if (counter>2) {
setProperty ("/door-movie", _x, -100);

Global Variable HELP
I am trying to use the "if , else" function to get a page to play an audio only once -- just the first time a user opens the page, which is inside loaded inside another movie (a navigation system).

I've looked at trying to set a global variable after the audio is played for the first time which would communicate that it has been played to the script the next time this page opens.

I just can't figure it out.

I hope I have explained clearly enough.

Thanks!!!

Global Set Variable Value Possible?
just a quick one:

is there a way to set a bunch of variables to one value: i.e. instead of having

Code:
var0 = "true";
var1 = "true";
var2 = "true";
var3 = "true";
var4 = "true";
var5 = "true";
just have one line stating that the variables "var0-5" are all true?

just a thought...

cheers

Global Variable Help Please
ok I have a main movie clip (We'll call it index.swf) in that I have a slideshow and for each picture that loads I have an external swf (pics01.swf, pics02.swf, etc up to 14).
Now I also have a navigation that is nested inside index.swf. The movie clip is called "Kitnav" and inside that is a movie containing all the movie thumbnails that can be clicked on, that one is called "Boxes".
What I want to do is to be able to click on one of the thumbnails and have it send a global variable. Then, whatever movie is playing (pics01.swf, etc.) will jump to the part where it closes....finish the animation and then jump to the new pics#.swf.
I've done this before witin one movie without using global variables. How would I do this? please help.

Global Variable
I have a menubar with buttons, and 2 MC's, one to expand a button's menu, and one to collapse. I am trying to set up a global variable so that the menu button will be aware of when it is in an expanded state and when it is not..

My question is, I tried to set a global variable in the first frame of my movie: set (home,0);

The expand MC sits in frame 2 and the collapse MC in frame 3.
On one of the menu buttons, I have the following condition set (just as a test run)

on (release) {
if (home==0){
gotoAndPlay (2);
home=1;
}
else {
gotoAndPlay (3);
home=0;
}

Can you tell what I am doing wrong, or am I going about this the wrong way. Basically both expand/collapse do not work at all.

Thanks in advance,
HankHill

Global Variable Help
I have a button that i would like to enable and disable a function within my game.

the button is called flashBang:

I'm thinking this may need to be done with global variables to make the switch do this procedure.

How would i go about scripting this variable???

Also i want to be able to target this function during gameplay, if this function is enabled do this line of code - (_root.gotoAndPlay("flash");.

The code needs to fit somewhere in here i guess.

//hitTest top + bottom wall
if (_root.ball.hitTest(_root.topwall) or _root.ball.hitTest(
_root.bottomwall)) {
_root.yspeed = -_root.yspeed;
_root.audio.gotoAndPlay("flash_bang");

ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT,

Set Global Variable Except 1?
I have about 90 instances of the same movieclip that, depending on if a variable is A or B... will go to a different frame.

I have set the variable to globally be A on the first frame... but when one of the movieclips is clicked, it goes to the different frame, I set that specific movieclip to be B.

Ok.

So now I have the problem... when one of the other movieclips changes from A to B, I need it to have all the other movieclips that are B to move back to A.

So... I have made the movieclip keep checking itself so see if it's A or B:

Code:
// if its on frame1, set all the other mcs to 0
if (this.mcvariable == B) {
_global.mcvariable = A;
this.mcvariable = B;
play(); // keep checking the next frame goes to frameB again
}

// else go to A frame and stop
else (this.mcvariable == A) {
this.gotoAndStop("frameA");
}
But... I can't make _global.mcvariable =A and then change it again for the specific instance.

I need some help on this urgently, How do I do this?

Thanks.

Help About Global Variable
hi,
I'm just a flash beginner and having some trouble when developing a flash application.
Basiclly for this part of the application, everytime you you press the Space key, one more human figure will be added to the screen. To control this human figure by keyboard, click the mouse over it to activate the keyboard control. If a human figure is activate then the rest will remain at its current position until it is click again.
i created a button within the human movieclip so that i can activate it when clicking by mouse.
The code below works fine for the above description, but then i need to retrieve all the intances names of the human moveclips created on screen to refer to them in a hittest function where i need to detect if these human movieclip is collided with another movieclip. I'm not sure how to work that out...Does the description make sense? I'm sorry for my bad english. please check the code for me. Is there any other way to do this?

Please please help me out
Thank you ^____________^

In the main Timeline i have this code

// duplicate the human figure
keyListenner = new Object();
keyListenner2 = new Object();
a = 0;
keyListenner.onKeyDown = function() {
if (Key.getCode() == key.SPACE) {
a++;
_root.human_mc.duplicateMovieClip("human_mc"+a, a, {_x:780, _y:320});
}
};
Key.addListener(keyListenner);
//move figure
keyListenner2.onKeyDown = function() {
l = 25;
if (Key.getCode() == key.UP) {
var oldCo:Number = getProperty(b, _y);
newCo = oldCo-l;
setProperty(b, _y, newCo);

} else if (Key.getCode() == key.RIGHT) {
var oldCo:Number = getProperty(b, _x);
newCo = oldCo+l;
setProperty(b, _x, newCo);

} else if (Key.getCode() == key.LEFT) {
var oldCo:Number = getProperty(b, _x);
newCo = oldCo-l;
setProperty(b, _x, newCo);

} else if (Key.getCode() == key.DOWN) {
var oldCo:Number = getProperty(b, _y);
newCo = oldCo+l;
setProperty(b, _y, newCo);

}
};
Key.addListener(keyListenner2);
And in the human figure i have this code
on (release) {
_global.b = this._name;
}
I'm just wondering if i can access this variable from the main Timeline...i tried to use
trace (_global.b);
and
trace(getProperty(b,_name)) on the mai Timeline...but the result is undefined..

Global Variable.
hi everyone

I am a new to actionscript and I have the follwowing problem.

I have on the first frame an input box and a dynamic box.

The variable name of the dynamic box being "mytext_tel"
the variable name of the input box being "mytext_eng"
and also a stop();

whatever is typed in the input box i catch that (keylistener)
and place that in the dynamic box.

now when a button is clicked, the movie goes to frame 10 and has a back button also in it.

The movie works fine on the first frame. When it comes back to frame 1 it still remembers what was there in the variable "mytext_tel" and "mytext_eng"

i need to empty then before it comes to frame 1.

I NEED TO MAKE my variables such that THEY CAN BE SEEN IN ANY FRAME ANY LAYER. so that i can give on frame 10.

mytext_tel="";
and mytex_eng="";

I hope you for my question.
Thanks in advance.

Global Variable Help Seriously....
Hi all, I got a global variable that I want to see the output for using trace.
The problem is it comes out blank when I do trace. It gets it data from an xml file. I don't see how it could not get data. If I put the trace inside the function it outputs a value but not outside the function. Must I make the function global or something? Please help! Thanx guys

Code:

_global.xValue;
_global.userInfo = new XML();
_global.userInfo.ignoreWhite = true;
_global.userInfo.load("http://localhost/gBook/userInfo.xml");
_global.userInfo.onLoad = function(success) {
if(success)
{
var root = this.firstChild

nodes = root.childNodes
for(var i=0; i<nodes.length; i++) {
subnodes = nodes[0].childNodes
subnodes2 = nodes[1].childNodes
subnodes3 = nodes[2].childNodes
_global.xValue = subnodes[0].firstChild.toString()
_global.xValueOne = subnodes2[0].firstChild.toString()
_global.xValueOne2 = subnodes3[0].firstChild.toString()

}
}

}

Global Variable Help
Im trying to load variables from an XML file and then use those variables to attach a video to a netStream. The problem is netStream doesnt work inside a function (at least I cant get it to) and I cant access the variables outside of the function.
What I need is a way to either define or alter a variable inside an onLoad function and then be able to call that variable outside of the function.
Something like this:
quote:var myVariable="hello";
onLoad=function(){
myVariable="goodbye"
}
trace(myVariable);
^When I trace I want the output to be goodbye rather than hello

I have tried using _root.myVariable and _global.myVariable but when I trace either I get undefined or I get the original value of the variable and not the new value.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Global Variable?
Hey kirupians, really struggling with this - have got so far - think have cracked it and SLAM brick wall... *groan*..

I have an array holding 'image' and 'name'

name loops fine and populates a load of movie clips underneath each other...
i need for when this name is clicked to load an image in another movie clip (image name comes from the array)..

the code i have works but it only pulls throught the last item of the array which points to a problem with 'i' not being carried across the functions..?

that is the result of my investigation *smokes pipe* - any help would be appreciated!.

PHP Code:

function loadceleb() { for (i=0; i<total; i++) { this.contentMain.attachMovie("chold", "hold"+i, i, {_x:xPos, _y:yPos}); yPos += this.contentMain["hold"+i]._height+5; this.contentMain["hold"+i].text_hold = clname[i]; // at this point textboxes are populated and set up on the stage imagename = image[i]; // tried tying imagename to the image array so i can then use in the function below this.contentMain["hold"+i].onPress = function() { _root.image_cont.gotoAndPlay(109); this.celeb.img.loadMovie(imagename); // this works fine but only pulls through the last image in the array - argh! trace(imagename); _root.image_cont.celeb.lineani.gotoAndPlay(1); }; }}stop();

Global Variable
Hi,

I'm trying to set a global variable so that when I mouseover on a certain movie clip (B) another movie clip (A) will go back to frame 1 if variable is 0.
This is what I wrote on the first frame of the root (where A and B are):

Code:
_global.quienes = 0;
Whithin C, there is a script than theoretically sets the variable to 1 on press. This is:

Code:
on (press) {
_global.quienes = 1;
}
Then, in actions for B I wrote:

Code:
on (rollOver) {
if (_global.quienes = 0) {
_root.A.gotoAndStop(1);
_root.C.gotoAndStop(1);
}
}
But nothing happens. This is the first time I use variables so I am probably doing something (or everything) wrong. Any hints?

Thanks
Laura

I made the stupid mistake of designing frame wise--I have six frames with different games in each one--instead of nesting between movie clips. I don't want to start over however. My problem is, I have a global variable that needs altering if you win a game and then go back to the original frame 1...problem is, when I go back to frame 1, my global variable resets to 0 and loses the value from frame 2 or 3...so on. How can I keep this global variable in check??

I have a navigation built so that when one button is clicked it jumps to another frame in the timeline. Now I have a rollover on those buttons which flash or do whatever, now when I click on another button, the timline jumps to that frame, but still leaves the previous button still flashing. I'm wondering if a global variable called upon which says turn off the previous button would work. I don't know how to go about it. OR I coud just be looking at this wrong.
Thanks for any help.

Global Variable Hell
Wassabi....
Heres one. I understand the functionality fully, I think I need help with syntax.

Movie1(_level0) loads Movie2 (_level1). In Movie2 there is a button.
I want that button to hide Movie2 and set a variable (flag) on the main timeline to "1".

on (release) {
setproperty(Movie2,_visible, false);
_root.flag=1;
}
That part is OK I think. My problem is below....

When the movie loads, the (flag)variable is initially set to "0". When it is set to "1" from a click on the button in Movie2 I want this variable on the main timeline (Movie1) to load another movie (Movie3) into (_level3)

So on the main timeline I have the following:
flag="0";
if (flag=1){
loadMovieNum(Movie3, 3);
}

Of course..it doesn't work. I have even tried to set this variable to "1" manualy in Movie1 and that wouldn't even work so I know the button wont. Help please!

How Do U Declare A Global Variable?
Hi all,
Please help me with this one.
1.How and where do you declare a global variable in action script?
The declaration is going to be followed by the action:
On(release){

}

2.Also, If there are two scripts attached to two different
buttons (in the sane movie),
can variables and functions defined in one be accessed from the other?
I wud be grateful if u can include a sample script illustrating the above.

Global Variable In Movieclip
Hi.
I've been working on this for ages, and have run into a problem I just can't figure out. It seems like a bug in Flash to me, what do you think?
I've stripped the project down to the basics to describe this problem. Here goes......

I have a simple movie with a single layer in the main timeline and a single frame on that layer.
I have 1 button and 2 instances of the same movie clip on the frame.
One instance of the movie clip is called 'Target_11', the other is called 'Target_12'.

Here is the actionscript I have on the frame in the main timeline:
Stop
Set Variable: "Block" = 0

Here is the actionscript I have on the button in the main timeline:
On (Press)
Loop While (Block < 2)
Set Variable: "Block" = Block + 1
Trace (Block)
Begin Tell Target ("/Target_1"&/:Block)
Go to and Stop (2)
End Tell Target
End Loop
End On

Each movie clip instance has a single layer with 2 frames.

Here is the actionscript on frame 1:
Stop

Here is the actionscript on frame 2:
Trace (/:Block)

When I run the movie I would expect the output window to show this:
1
1
2
2

But what I actually get is this:
1
2
2
2

Can anybody tell me how I can get the Trace statement in the movie clip instance to show variable 'Block' as '1' then '2' as it should do.

Thanks in advance for any help you can give. I've been working on this for ages and can't figure out what is happening.

If you would like me to email you this test movie, let me know.

Regards.
Damian.
