Flash :: Dynamically Writing Script

Dynamically Writing Functions
Ok so I got these buttons being dynamically attached in the movie depending on the value of
code: _global.totalLatest
Each of the buttons text and position is fine. But I wanted to write an onRelease function for each of the buttons added to the movie. I thought the code below would work but it just causes each button to act as "button_mc_4" (the last button created at the moment). Heres the code im using:

code:
create_buttons = function() {
height = 0;
for(i=0;i<_global.totalLatest;i++) {
button_holder_mc.attachMovie("button_mc","button_m c_"+i,i)
button_holder_mc["button_mc_"+i].movie.text = _global["movie_"+i];
button_holder_mc["button_mc_"+i]._x = 0;
button_holder_mc["button_mc_"+i]._y = 0 + height;
height +=button_holder_mc["button_mc_"+i]._height;
button_holder_mc["button_mc_"+i].button_but.onRelease = function() {
_global.clicked = i;
play_movie();
}
}
}

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Harro.

Writing A SWF To A Server Dynamically
OK, I'm exploring whether this idea is possible...here's what I want to do.
I want to create a Flash-based Admin panel for a client that will allow the user to click a button and dynamically create a SWF on the server for the user. In practice, this would allow the user to add a Flash page to their website.

So, is it possible to dynamically create a SWF on the server? thx for your replies in advance!

Dynamically Writing Flashvars
Can anyone tell me how to get a flashvar into flash without using javascript? Is it even possible anymore?

I have a flash movie embedded in an aspx page that needs to dynamically load an xml file based on a parameter in the querystring. Everywhere I look all I see are posts telling me that the only way to do it is to add the flashvar to the AC_FL_Runcontent script, however I can't be certain that all my clients will have javascript enabled and I know at least a few who are not allowed to have it turned on.

When I use the object and embed tags and add my flashvar param and inline tag I get nothing in the loaderInfo object in my movie.

Am I out of luck with AS3 in this regard?

Dynamically Writing To Textfile Locally
I am going to make an editor for my game where anybody can change the variables. I have very many vars so I need some way of saving and loading an unlimited number of vars and arrays into a textfile. I often add vars, so I don't want to change anything inside the php file everytime I add vars.

Is there anybody who knows how this could be done?

Sorry for my bad english.

Dynamically Writing And Loading A Gallery
I have most of this figured out, but I'm stumped on thing. I have a gallery of images that are dynamically written to the stage from an external XML file. All of the images in the gallery are the same height, but not the same width.

I want be able to attach a mc to the stage, add a bit of spacing and then continue onto the next image until all images are loaded.

I tried to add another node in the XML for each image to store the width of that image, but the loop doesn't want to recognize the node as a value to use for spacing.

Code:

var xml:XML = new XML();
xml.ignoreWhite = true;
xml.load("fluxXML.xml");
xml.onLoad = loadXML;
function loadXML(success) {
if (success) {
   nodes = xml.firstChild.childNodes;

   _root.createEmptyMovieClip("tray", 1)
   currentX = tray._x = 5;
   currentY = tray._y = 10;
   numOfItems = nodes.length;

   for (i=0; i<numOfItems; i++) {
      if (nodes[i].attributes.type == "logo") {
         tray.attachMovie("holder", "holder"+i, i+1);
         tray["holder"+i].thumbnailName = xml.firstChild.childNodes[i].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
         tray["holder"+i]._x = currentX;
         tray["holder"+i]._y = currentY;
         var xWidth:Number = xml.firstChild.childNodes[i].childNodes[1].firstChild;
         currentX += xWidth;
      }
   }
}
}

And here is the xml

Code:

<data>
<item type = "logo">
   <image>gallery/model1.jpg</image>
   <xWidth>200</xWidth>
</item>
<item type = "logo">
   <image>gallery/model2.jpg</image>
   <xWidth>393</xWidth>
</item>
<item type = "logo">
   <image>gallery/model3.jpg</image>
   <xWidth>200</xWidth>
</item>
<item type = "logo">
   <image>gallery/model4.jpg</image>
   <xWidth>402</xWidth>
</item>
<item type = "logo">
   <image>gallery/model5.jpg</image>
   <xWidth>199</xWidth>
</item>
</data>

Note: If you change the xWidth var name to a number, like this
currentX += 100, then the spacing works fine. "100" Needs to be dynamic to accommodate for the varying widths.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Dynamically Duplicating Buttons, Dynamically Adding Code To Them... HOW?
I spent many hours on this, but still i can't figure out how to do it.

I want to create (or duplicate) a button,
each button has to be separated from each other by some pixels and the buttons could have many rows.

then, once i got the buttons i wan't to assign each of them an "unique" code

b1.onRelease = function() { // <-- but i don't want to write a

Loading Pictures Dynamically To A Dynamically Loaded Clip
Here's the issue. I'm creating a video player and EVERYTHING is working swimmingly except for one thing. On my list of available videos (which is XML driven) everything reads in correctly and the movie clips are added correctly, but I can't get the thumbnails to add to the stage. Someone help!! Here's the code I'm using:

EDIT: Oh yeah, the thumbs are located in a separate directory and the location is indicated in the xml file. the "vidList" variable is my XML list.

PHP Code:

function loadPics():void //this is the first function called...{ for(var i:uint = 0; i < vidList.length(); i++) { var picLoader:Loader = new Loader(); picLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onPicLoaded); picLoader.load(new URLRequest(vidList[i].thumb)); trace(vidList[i].thumb); picLoader.width = 72; picLoader.height = 54; picLoader.x = 0; picLoader.y = 0; picLoader.name = vidList[i].title; } populateList();}function onPicLoaded(e:Event):void //this should be called after each pic is loaded, but the trace statements have yet to appear.{ trace("________________________"); trace(e.currentTarget.name); trace("________________________");}function populateList():void //everything in here works fine{ for(var i:uint = 0; i < vidList.length();i++) { var lItem:ListItem = new ListItem(); lItem.title.text = vidList[i].title; lItem.caption.text = vidList[i].caption; lItem.x = 5; lItem.y = 7+(79*i) lItem.filters = [dsf, bf]; lItem.name = vidList[i].title; list.addChild(lItem); lItem.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickVideo); }}

Can anyone give me any kind of suggestion on how to do this?

Basically, after all the foundation stuff for the video player is done, it calls the loadPics function. That is supposed to load each pic and then upon the pic being loaded, it was going to call the onPicLoaded function and I was going to (somehow) pass them to some type of array. Then, in my populateList function I would just use "i" to put the correct pic with the correct video.

Please help! I can give you more if you need it. I just don't know what else to post.

How Dynamically Change The Image In Dynamically Created Row Of Images?
Hi everybody,
I am wondering if someone can help me to find out on how to replace the images in row of dynamically loaded images. I need on Press of an icon from the row of images replace the image of this icon to new one. Below is the code of creating the images row based on array and XMl data. I create an array based on data taking from XML.

Code:
var numOfImages:Number;
var thumbHeight:Number = 8;
var thumbSpace:Number = 100;
var thumbTotalDistance:Number = thumbHeight+thumbSpace;
var xCounter:Number = 5;
var thumbsCollectionHeight:Number;
var currentImage:Number = 0;
var moveOutDist:Number = 10;
//-------------------------------------------------------------------------
//-------------------------------------------------------------------------
var IM_Img:Array = new Array();
var IM_Title:Array = new Array();
//==================================================================================================================
//=============================== THUMBS IMAGE LOADER ==========================================================
//==================================================================================================================

var thumbImgLoader2:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var thumbImgListener2:Object = new Object();

thumbImgListener2.onLoadProgress = function(target:MovieClip):Void {

};
thumbImgLoader2.addListener(thumbImgListener2);
thumbImgListener2.onLoadComplete = function(target_mc:MovieClip):Void {

};

//==================================================================================================================
//=============================== XML ==================================================================================================
//==================================================================================================================

var totalXML:XML = new XML();

totalXML.ignoreWhite = true;
totalXML.onLoad = function(success) {

var TNnode = this.firstChild.childNodes[1].childNodes;
numOfImages = TNnode.length;

//---------------- ATTACHING THUMBS -----------------
//===========================================================================================================

for (i=0; i<numOfImages; i++) {
var mc:MovieClip = imCollection_mc.thumbs_mc.attachMovie("mcThumb_IM", "thumb_" + i, i);
mc._y = 0;
mc._x = xCounter;

xCounter = xCounter+thumbTotalDistance;
thumbImgLoader2.loadClip(TNnode[i].attributes.thumb,mc.loader_mc);

IM_Title.push(TNnode[i].attributes.title);
imCollection_mc.thumbs_mc["thumb_" + i].mc_title.title_txt.text = IM_Title[currentImage];

mc.id = i;
trace (mc.id);

mc.onPress = mc_im_onPress;

mc.xx = mc._x;
mc.yy = mc._y;

}
};

//-------------------------------------------------------------------------
totalXML.load("images.xml");
Here is onPress event where I was thinking to add this functionality:

Code:
function mc_im_onPress() {

mcToSelect = this;

if(this.id==8){
//here I need to tell to replace the image from mc8 to new image from array to image#34 from xml
}
}
Any advice is highly appreciated. Thanks.

Dynamically Loading Images Into Dynamically Loaded MovieClips
I'm read through many of the posts and found several on this topic, none, however, that addressed all that I need addressed. I've tried several of the suggestions but so far nothing seems to work.

What I want to do is alter the width of images loaded dynamically into a dynamically loaded set of movieclips. all of the widths of the images are different, but i want them set to the same width. The width seems to stay at zero, however, and I cannot seem to change it.

Here is my code:

for (var i:Number = 0; i < 8; i++){
var mc = attachMovie("rect_mc", "r" + i, this.getNextHighestDepth());
mc._x = 90 + (i * (mc._width+5));
mc._y = 375;
mc.img_txt.text = "image" + (i+1);
mc.img_mc.loadMovie("myPic" + (i+1) + ".jpg");

mc.img_mc._xscale = mc.img_mc._yscale = (50/mc.img_mc._width) * 100;
};

The last line is the one that does not function properly.

I'd appreciate any help anyone can provide. thanks.

Problem With Loading Jpegs Dynamically Into Dynamically Created MC's
hey all. I got a problem with loading jpegs dynamically into dynamically created MC's. I've been using NEIL WEBB's tutorial on dynamic creation with event handling through the LISTENER component, which you can see here http://www.actionscript.org/tutorial...MX_2004_Part2/

I have slightly altered the script to accomodate the fact that I want to attach a movieclip with text fields and image holders within it, but the code aint too different I don't think.

Code:
stop();
myMCL = new MovieClipLoader(); //define MovieClipLoader
myListener = new Object(); //define listener
myListener.onLoadComplete = function(targetMC){ //set the onComplete function on listener
trace("targetMC = " + targetMC._name);
targetMC.onPress = function() { //define onPress within function

}
}
//****************************
function initClips(){
//trace(_global.gallery_cnt);
for (i=1; i<=_global.gallery_cnt; i++){
//trace("Attaching Clip - " + i);
this.gallery_TN_holder.attachMovie("TN_Holder", "TN_Holder" + i, i); //attach the movie
this.gallery_TN_holder["TN_Holder"+i]._x = (i-1)*90; //spacing
this.gallery_TN_holder["TN_Holder"+i].TN_Text.text = _global.gallery_array.description;
[i] [i]myMCL.loadClip(_global.gallery_array.main_thumbnail ,this.gallery_TN_holder["TN_Holder"+i].TN_Image);
//load images into clip
}
play();
}
//****************************
myMCL.addListener(myListener); //associate listerer with MCL object
initClips();
The first line ("trace") in bold outputs

Quote:

targetMC = TN_Image
targetMC = TN_Image

which you can see is resulting from the second bold line.

Basically I need some direction with this as to how to reference the clip target for the loaded JPEG, as my output in the movie shows the attachMovie works, as does the text change within the individual "TN_Holder" clips. What the hell am i doin wrong, cos my eyes are kinda starting to go kinda funny looking at this stuff!!!!!

Thanks for any help!

Removing Dynamically Added Movie Clips Dynamically
I've been looking for a long time, but I cannot find anything on removing dynamically added movie clips. I really need to remove these movie clips dynamically since they are being placed by xml and I can never be sure how many clips will be added. Here is my code:

Code:
function callText(e:MouseEvent):void{
for (var k:Number = 0; k < my_total; k++){
var words_url = myXML.list[k].@videotitle;
var textRollDwn:ThumbText_mc = new ThumbText_mc();
galContainer.addChild(textRollDwn);
textRollDwn.name = "textRollDwn" + k;
textRollDwn.x = k%3*200;
textRollDwn.y = Math.floor(k/3)*150;
textRollDwn.words_txt.text = words_url;
textRollDwn.alpha = 50;
btnArray.push(textRollDwn)
}
}
Now this code works but I'm trying to write a function that when I roll off of this movieclip it goes away. I pushed them into an array thinking that I could also make them go away, but they wont. I tried:

Code:
for (var m:Number = 0; m < my_total; m++){
galContainer.removeChild(btnArray[m])
}
with this i get: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller

and this:

Code:
for (car m:Number = 0; m < my_total; m++){
galContainer.removeChild(["textRollDwn"] + m)
}
I get a type coercion failer saying that flash can't convert "textRollDwn0" to flash.display.DisplayObject. But that's what I named the movie clips...according to the name property anyway!

Thanks for help in advanced! Gosh I need it....

Dynamically Masking Dynamically Created Text (MX)
I am having trouble dynamically masking dynamically created text... It just doesn't seem to work!! This is what i'm doing.

First i create a movie clip dynamically using attachMovie. On the first frame of that mci create a bunch of text fields, one after the other. When that finishes, i call a function in another mc that creates another mc and draws a box in it and then sets it as the mask of the first mc.

The result should be that only the text that is within that mask should show up, right? Well, the text doesn't mask at all, even if it is entirely beyond the bounds of the mask.

I read that it might be a problem with fonts that aren't embedded, so i set the TextFormat.embedFonts to true...

anyone have any idea??

Writing To Txt With Php
I have been trying to make a simple hscore table but for some reason I cant get flash to write to the .txt.
In flash I put this code in.
code:
Submit.onPress = function() {
SendScore = new LoadVars();
SendScore.n = Name;
SendScore.s = Score;
SendScore.f = "Scorelist.txt";
SendScore.sendAndLoad("SendScore.php", SendScore, "POST");
};

Then in the php file I have this code.
code:
<?
$n = $_POST['n'];
$s = $_POST['s'];
$f = $_POST['f'];
$o = fopen("$f", "a+");
if(fwrite($o, $n, $s));
else
fclose($o);
?>

The problem is most likely with the php as I have not used it much and although I know to use the php code I am unsure what it means. Thanks

[F8] Writing To An SWF
Hi, this is driving me crazy and I'm afraid I don't even where to start looking (or even how best to ask) for help. What I'd like to be able to produce is the following:

'User-bookable time slots' (or however else they might otherwsise or more appropriately be termed).

I'd like to create a table indicating time slots (10am til 11 am; 11am til 12; 12pm til 1pm etc) which, if not already taken - i.e. someone else's name isn't already displayed in a slot - will allow the user to type his/her name in, then hit a submit button whereupon the his/her name will be shown in the slot rendering it unavailable to subsequent site users.

Does any of this make sense? I'm having trouble getting my head 'round how to achieve it, despite having successfully added guestbooks and all manner of other 'read/write' sort of stuff to various of my sites.

Sigh... I think I might be having a 'senior moment'! Please, please help!!!

Many thanks,
Fran

Writing XML With AIR
im trying to open an existing XML document and then write to it with AIR using flash..

ActionScript Code:
import flash.filesystem.File;

import flash.filesystem.FileMode;

var appDir:File = File.applicationStorageDirectory
var dskTopFileStream:FileStream = new FileStream();
var fileString:String = appDir.nativePath;
var dskTopFile:File = File.documentsDirectory;
trace(dskTopFile);
dskTopFile = dskTopFile.resolvePath(fileString+"\bankroll.xml");
//trace(dskTopFile.toString());

// LOAD XML
var xmlString:URLRequest = new URLRequest(fileString+"\bankRoll.xml");
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(xmlString);
xmlLoader.addEventListener("complete", init);
var defaultXML:XMLDocument = new XMLDocument();
defaultXML.ignoreWhite = true;

function init(event:Event):void {
var xml:XML = XML(xmlLoader.data);
defaultXML.parseXML(xml.toXMLString());
//var myString:String = defaultXML.firstChild
var existingData = defaultXML.firstChild.childNodes
trace(existingData)
var i = 0
for (i=0;i<defaultXML.firstChild.childNodes.length-1;i++) {
trace(i)

}

dskTopFileStream.openAsync (dskTopFile, FileMode.WRITE);
dskTopFileStream.writeUTFBytes ("<BankRoll>"+ existingData+existingData+"</BankRoll>");
dskTopFileStream.close ();

}

problem is, it keeps inserting weird charecters and placing commas etc between my childNodes.. this effect seems much like an old php problem i use to encounter having something to do with a setting in the php server..

any ideas?

Writing To PHP
So I am still new to AS3 and I need some direction for a school project and was wondering if I could get help here. I am creating a website all built in Flash for my family website (It is kind of like a family newsletter website). It has letters that my family writes each month. Before the would email me the letter and I would replace it. I want to be able to have the letter be displayed in a dynamic text field then they hit a submit button and a write letter area pops up. They then write their letter and then it automatically replaces the old letter with the new one. Now I have created the lay out and the text field that pops up and I have got it in AS3 just to replace the text but when I leave that page and come back, it does not keep any of the new text. I talked to a few people saying that I would have to have it be an xml file (Which is ok, I can figure that much out) But then I would have to use PHP to write to that file to have it switched on the server. Anyone know where to find some help with that? Or do you know of anything? Thanks for your help.

If you look at the flash file, and login using username "a" and password "b", you get to the write screen. General idea is that when people write something here, and press the sned button... this info will be saved in the supplied .xml file before the other inputs.

Writing Txt File To Cgi
Hey all!

I have in my website http://www.brucekey.nl a dynamic txt box that loads from my cgi-bin. If I want to change the txt file, which happens weekly, I just change the textfile and upload it again into the bin.

Is it possible in flash to make changes to that textfile online?

So let's say make a special page where the text loads in the textbox, editable, make changes and save it again, so I don't need to ftp it over and over??

I read about php, but I am not really into that, especially since my txt.cgi works good enough...

I've seen many times the cool effect as if someone is writing a text in flash.You can see how the letters are written. Can anyone tell me how I can do that? It has to be realistic though :-)

Thanks in advance
Greetings

Writing To ActionScript
Hey guys and gals- I am curious to know if there is a way to write to ActionScript... via the flash movie... As in ... Being able to enter text in an Input Text Field, clicking a button, and have it save that information in the ActionScript. Or, would you have to write it to an alternate file, and have the ActionScript read from there?

I am working with Flash MX, any hints or ideas would be great, I know that the advice from you guys and gals is excellent. Thank you for your time.
