Bought CS3 But Haven't Read My MX Actionscript, MX2004, Books. Should I Read Them?
I just bought CS3 and I am now debating whether I should read my Flash MX Actionscript bible, Flash 2004 Bible. I should have read them, but It's just hard to fit the time in.

Would I benefit from reading these books when CS3 is Actionscript 3? How much functionality is lost when scripting in Actionsript 2 and 1 as compared to Actionscript 3.

Would it be wiser for me to just learn Actionscript 3 properly and get a book on Actionscript 3 than waste my time on reading old scripting and technology?

Also is MC tween compatible on CS3, actionscript 3.

Ok I Have Read And Read, But I Am Getting No Where. Please For The Love Of God Help
Ok I have developed an interactive map, by which the user clicks a button and information pops up into the dynamic box taking this from nodes in my XML file.

The client has requested the availability in typing information into the dynamic box (area), so really I need to change this into an input box, fine.

But then to click a save button, for the xml file to be passed the information, thus next time the information is presented on click of a button, as many buttons are applied to many nodes in the xml tree, i.e cw1, cw2, cw3 and so on.

I CANNOT DO IT!

I stress this because I am at my end, its taking me ages to get the data into a flash window from each node, and there are many. But now I am attempting to undertake the impossible. I have looked at tutorials from sencular, who really does know his stuff, but cannot do it.

It would be really kind if someone could help me for a simple approach dispite it not being simple as I dont have much time, and I am rushed.

So I am in desperate need right about now, so please help me.

So my aim is for the client to input data into the area after clicking a button, as currently I just have bogus text in each field, but they will be able to overwrite this in real time.

I am sure that asp, xml and flash are required to achieve this, thats fine, but I need help.

Tell me with it being an internal thing could we pass the information in holding into a secondr swf file.?

This is not for the internet, but an internal intra net.

Kindest regards for anyone willing to reply

Address Bar.
Hey,
I'm trying to make an address bar like that of the one in internet explorer, so that when you type in an address it's displayed, for example if the user enters 'www.mypage.com', then it should take the person to that website.

Thank you.

Is It Possible To Know What URL Address You Are On?
Pardon my ignorance, but is there a way to find out what URL the page is on? or am I missing a fundamental stop(); and something else?

I have a menu that I use in my htm documents for a web site to navigate through it. When a page is selected, an animation is played and it graphically indicates the new page being viewed.

The problem I have is that as soon as the page loads, the movie plays from the begining as the swf gets loaded again. I have tried a stop(); at the first frame, but then the movie doesn't go to the frame where it is supposed to graphically indicate what page the user is on.

My tought is that if I can somehow read the URL I am on, then on my first page I can do some if statements to take me to the frame for each particular page so the user has the right graphical display.

Your help is much appreciated.

Is There A Way I Could Get The IP Address....
Hi you all!!!

Is there a way to get the IP Address (from within the movie) of the machine the Flash Movie is playing on?

Here's the scenario: I have multiple Flash Movies playing on remote machines, and each one has to validate against a SocketServer I have running on the Server from which the movies where downloaded from. Now the validation "UserName" has to be the IP Address.

I need to send this IP to the SocketServer so it (The Server) can look up each machine on a DB.

As always, I'll appreciate any help.

Thanks,

Francisco

IP Address
I was wondering if anybody can help,

I have only just started using flash/dreamweaver....... I have made up a contact form in flash that posts to a CGI script. On the form itself I want to display the users IP address, this is to stop people abusing the form.

I have no problem using something like shtml to get the ip but I do not know how to pass that variable into flash or if there is an easier way just using action script itself

Thanks for the help in advance

Get IP Address
Probably silly Q here but am going to ahead and ask. I basically need a way to obtain IP address in flash. What I have so far;;

In PHP:

<?
$ip = getenv('REMOTE_ADDR'); //~ get ip address
$ip = "&ip=".$ip."&"; //~ make it a flashable variable
echo $ip; //~ spit it out
?>

In FLA with dynamic text box named "myTextBox" and on the first frame- the actionscript is:

myLoadVars = new LoadVars();
myLoadVars.specificvariable = "Value";
myLoadVars.sendAndLoad("http://www.mysite.com/ip.php", this, "GET");
myLoadVars.onLoad = function() {
myTextBox.text = this.ip;
};

Now it's not working. Can anyone help me out to get this fixed? Thanks!

Swf Address
the sample code that swf address comes like this:
but as you can see, in the line below it uses timeline to switch pages
gotoAndStop('$/error/');

my question is what can i replace gotoAndStop with so i can build the pages dynamically

thanks

ActionScript Code:
// Custom utilities
function replace(str, find, replace) {
return str.split(find).join(replace);
}
function toTitleCase(str) {
return str.substr(0,1).toUpperCase() + str.substr(1);
}
function formatTitle(title) {
return 'SWFAddress Website' + (title != '/' ? ' / ' + toTitleCase(replace(title.substr(1, title.length - 2), '/', ' / ')) : '');
}

// SWFAddress actions
function btnClick(e:MouseEvent) {
SWFAddress.setValue(e.target.deepLink);
}
function btnRollOver(e:MouseEvent) {
SWFAddress.setStatus(e.target.deepLink);
}
function btnRollOut(e:MouseEvent) {
SWFAddress.resetStatus();
}

// SWFAddress handling
function handleSWFAddress(e:SWFAddressEvent) {
try {
if (currentFrame == 2 && e.value == '/') {
play();
} else {
gotoAndStop('$' + e.value);
}
SWFAddress.setTitle(formatTitle(e.value));
} catch(err) {
gotoAndStop('$/error/');
}
}
SWFAddress.addEventListener(SWFAddressEvent.CHANGE, handleSWFAddress);
stop();

MX ADDRESS ERROR
Everytime I open the actions panel in Flash MX I get the bomb and restart with the message 'address error' .

I have talked to customer and tech support and Macromedia and think it is the worst support program I have ever dealt with in my entire life. I am personally offended by how I am being treated as a customer.

Any help would be grateful.

I am running OS 9.2.2 .

Movieclip Address
I have a movieclip(a) which can be loaded from any other movieclip, which could be anywhere in the main movie. When movieclip(a) unloads, I want to continue playing the movieclip that called movieclip(a). Is there an easy way of doing this? The only way I can think of is to somehow find the absolute address of the movieclip which called movieclip(a), but I dont know the commmand for doing that? Can anybody either tell me an easier way of doing this, or the command for reading absolute addresses of movieclips. Thanks
