Help Passing Paremeters...

SetInterval Not Passing Paremeters To Function
I am having difficulties with passing parameters to a function when using setInterval. I've done it before but for some reason its not working in my current OOP set up.

the line i am using to create the interval is ::

this["this.fadeInterval" + this.myID] = setInterval(this.fadeAction, this.fadeRGBInterval, this.myID);

the interval name is being generated according to an ID number, "this.fadeAction" is the function and "this.fadeRGBInterval" is the interval. "this.myID" is the paremeter i wish to be passed.

i know that the interval is working cos the function "this.fadeAction" plays at the correct interval, but the paremeter is not being picked up.

why the problems? is it because i am generating the interval name on the fly?

any suggestions / tips much appreciated.

many thanks!

How The Flash Module Can Read Paremeters Embeded In Html
Hello everybody,

I need to load external images into flash movie. The way I'd like to make it is to pass parameters into the flash movie within the EMBED tag. I am wondering how the flash module can read the paremeters within the EMBED tag.

Here is an example of html code. The line in red is about the images I am trying to load. Can this be done?


Quote:




<EMBED src="load_im.swf?img1=images/image1.jpg&img2=images/image1.jpg&img3=images/image1.jpg" quality=medium bgcolor=#FFFFFF WIDTH="570" HEIGHT="445" NAME="load_im" ALIGN=""TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></EMBED>







Thanks for any help.

Passing Property Values And Passing Them Back
Hi,

I am trying to pass property values from one function to another function, let it do it's work then pass it back to original function when called.

Example:


Code:
function displayText()
{
nameCurrentMap.curMapName.text = flashServ.map;
nameCurrentMap.curMapName.embedFonts = true;
nameCurrentMap.curMapName._alpha = 0;
fadeInCurrentMap = setInterval(fadeIn, 50);
}

function fadeIn()
{
if(nameCurrentMap.curMapName._alpha < 100){
nameCurrentMap.curMapName._alpha += 5;
}else{
clearInterval(fadeIn);
}
}
As of right now this code works perfectly. However, I have to hard code my property value. I wish to make it more dynamic so I can use the function "fadIn()" more universally.

The colored (red) text shows on what I wish to make it more dynamic.

I basically want to take the property and be able to use any instance name in place and pass it back.

I hope someone out there understands on what I am trying to explain.

Any Help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

- Alex

Passing
Hello folks,
I have this function: showDebugFields ("false");"
(It can also be "showDebugFields ("true");"

What happen is that I want to do the following:

function showDebugFields (TorF) {
field._visible = tOrF;
}

I want to set the field 'field' to whatever boolean was passed into "showDebugFields" -
so for example if 'TorF' is "true" - the field 'field' is displayed
otherwise it's not displayed.

But the function "showDebugFields" is not doing it's job.

What happened?

Passing The Name Of A Mc
hi all,

i am trying to get in the festive spirit and make a flash advent calendar. i am trying to pass the name of a mc to a function. in the function i want to slice the number out. Hopefully you understand

here is the for loop i am using for the door numbers:


PHP Code:



// set loop to run the function open() onRelease
for (a=0; a<=25; a++) {
allDoors_mc["door"+a+"_mc"].btn.onRelease = function () {
// call the function
_root.openDoor();
};
}




so when door 1 is clicked on i want to pass the name of door 1 to the openDoor() function. then i want to slice the name to extract the number 1, to use further on in the function.

cheers
hope some 1 can help.

Passing A Var Somehow...
Hey guys!


I have a real toe tapper here im just completly stumped on. First lets start with what I'm trying to do:

Im trying to build a little app for a forum that users can put in their sigs that count up from a defined date. Obviously there will need to be some sort of system for users to set this date invidually.

What i have so far is this


ActionScript Code:
oldDate = new Date(2006,10,25);
newDate = new Date();
elapsed = newDate - oldDate;

day.text = Math.floor(elapsed/(1000*60*60*24));
hour.text = Math.floor(elapsed/(1000*60*60)-(day.text*24));
min.text = Math.floor(elapsed/(1000*60)-(day.text*1440)-(hour.text*60));
sec.text = Math.floor(elapsed/(1000)-(day.text*86400)-(hour.text*3600)-(min.text*60));

and all corresponding text fields on the stage and it works fine counting just as i need it to do
*sidenote*(though it uses 2 frames (frame 2 says "gotoAndPlay(1);" how do i make it just auto update the first frame continually?)


My issue is i have defined the start date in the above variable in the flash movie which is why it works. If i am going to have multiple users putting the same SWF into their sigs, how can i get it to use different date(var).


Now, there are 2 ways i could possibly think of to pass the SWF the variable, the first being in the URL (www.someURL.com?oldDate = new Date(2006,10,25)) something of the sort, which i know would work, except i have to put it into sigs by using the direct SWF url which doesnt allow a variable to be passed along with it. The second way was for each user to login somewhere, enter a date and hit generate and it will code the var into the SWF somehow based on the date they provided. I know its not possible to publish an SWF from inside a SWF so i think this idea is out.

I had 2 ideas for getting the info from the user. Now, our forum is a dotnetBB forum for starters. One method i was thinking which i think would be best, would be for somehow adding a field to users profiles where they can store a date and pull the var from that somehow which thinking about it now is pretty much impossible, but anyways. Secondly (and more likely possible) would be to have a page where the users can login, set a date, hit a generate button or something, and it spits out the url to the SWF, which they then copy and place in their sig.

Now again, my issue is this: (especially with the second method) how could i possible get a variable passed to the SWF when its sitting on the forum! its great if somehow sets a date from a few combo boxes in a little flash app with a generate button and a text field where the code gets spit out, but how could i somehow in between the press of the button and the code being spit out attatch the date they specified to the SWF (or the SWF URL) there being given?

I dont know if people have seen these things before, i know there out there - they are like "13 days until my birthday!" or "16years, 2 weeks, 1 day since i was born!" little flash things that are doing what i am trying to recreate! (sorry i dont have a URL to a site that does them, if anyone did that would be super)

so guys, i could REALLY use some help here, im going crazy!!!

SOS!

Cheers,

Passing... Out
Why doesn't the text output work?

If trace returns "lb2txt" then shouldn't this work? Isn't this[btnOntxt].text = 'Hello'; the same as lb2txt.text = 'Hello';

btnOntxt = "lb2txt";

this[btnOntxt].text = 'Hello';

trace([btnOntxt]);







Attach Code

btnOntxt = "lb2txt";

this[btnOntxt].text = 'Hello';

trace([btnOntxt]);

Passing A Var In URL

Code:
var oldDate = new Date(2005,10,25);
var newDate = new Date();
var elapsed = newDate - oldDate;
How on earth do i pass a date with multiple entried (2005,10,25) via a URL variable? I NEED to send the var oldDate = new Date(); in the URL. i know i cant go "?oldDate = new Date(2003,9,21)"

So how do i pass a variable like that???

Passing XML Into AS
Hey People...

Not sure if this should be in this forum, or in the HTML forums, but I think you guys would know the answer

I am working on designing a "flyer" type of advertisement at the moment... and I have pretty much everything working... everything except for this, that is...

I need to be able to pass a string into flash that would basically be XML into flash. I know how to pass strings in, but where this has many "'s and /'s I am wondering if that would be a problem... "FlashVars" looks like this as an example...


Code:
<param name="FlashVars" value="items=<?xml version="1.0"?><flyer><flyer-item index="1" shortDescription="small car" longDescription="a small car" price="1000" image="http://www.images.com/image.jpg" /><flyer-item index="2" shortDescription="car" longDescription="a car" price="2000" image="http://www.images.com/image2.jpg" /><flyer-item index="3" shortDescription="big car" longDescription="a big car" price="3000" image="http://www.images.com/image3.jpg" /></flyer>" />

Quite a mouthful, eh?

I also have this in my embed tag and for some reason, this is what I get on my page when I try to load it up...

BIG EMPTY WHITE SPACE

" /> " quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="550" height="400" name="temp" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />


It's like the XML is terminating the string or something. I can't for the life of me get this to work. Does anyone have an idea how I could get this to work?

Thanks,

--D

ps. I can't set up a webservice to do this, which would probably be a best option... don't ask why... thanks again...

Passing XML To Another Swf
Hey Guys,

Here is my problem - I have my thumbnails loading into one swf and I have another swf on the same page which I want to display the larger image from the thumbnail which is clicked.

I am trying to use local connection - but I am getting stuck on passing the xml or allowing my larger picture swf access to the function which displays the larger image.

It all works fine both larger image and thumbnails in the one thumbnail swf.
But this is what I want to break apart into two swf's if possible??

Any ideas on how to pass xml functions which displays images through local connection.

Cheers,
George

Passing XML
hi all, im looking at the big spaceship preloader in AS3. The preloader loads an external SWF and XML file. What im looking at it passing the xml from the preloader through to the loadedSWF.

I cant seem to access it, any ideas?

The files can be found here: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/actionsc...eight_as3.html

The preloader AS is as Follows;


Code:
package
{
// as3
import flash.net.URLLoader;
import flash.net.URLRequest;

import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.display.MovieClip;

// bss
import com.bigspaceship.utils.Out;
import com.bigspaceship.frameworks.site.PreloaderClip;

// events
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.ProgressEvent;
import com.bigspaceship.events.AnimationEvent;

public class Main extends MovieClip
{
/* i like to define my class variables at the top of the page, so i know what i'm working with.
* private variables are variables only accessible inside this class. if another class tried to access _swfLoader, flash would display an error message.
* these are useful because now i know that the only place these variables will be used or manipulated is in this file.
* if i wanted to open them up so other classes could manipulate them, i'd call them public instead of private.
*
* at big spaceship we use a standard for variables: underscore before private vars, nothing before public and dollar sign before arguments.
* this helps us figure out what variable is of what type without having to go up and down the code.

Passing Variable
Hi,


I want to have a movie in level1 write variables to level0. I have tried several ways and none of them have worked. I'm not sure I know the proper syntax and have had trouble finding a complete reference on it. Here is what I'm trying right now:

In a frame script in level1 which is loaded into level0:

_level0.module = "netbas";

Then I have a button script in level0 use it this way:

on (release) {
loadMovieNum (+module+"_c.swf", 1);}

I want the button to load the following file into level1: netbas_c.swf. When I test and click the button I get an error that says it can't find "_c.swf" indicating to me that it isn't getting the variable value. It works fine when I set it within level0, but not from level1.

Can you please tell me why this won't work and what I need to do. Is there a better way to have links in level0 use variables that will be set in the current movie in level1?
Where can I get complete help on this?

Additional info: I have several movies that will be put into level1. A button in level0 will load a movie in level1. Once that movie is loaded, then I want all the navigation
buttons in level0 to have "netbas" in front of them so that they only load the swfs associated with the current movie in level1. Then when the user clicks on Advanced
Networking from the main menu and loads that movie into level1, I want all those buttons in level0 to have "netadv" in front of them. (i.e. netadv_c.swf). I hope this is
clear. I've made parts work, but I cannot get the variable to level0.

Thanks,

Brian

Passing Variables
Is it possible to pass a variable from a buttonpush that is in an MC that needs to control the _root movie? In other words: rootmovie/MC/button -->variable assigned to control main (root) movie. For some reason I cannot get flash to recognize my requests....here is the code that I am using in the button:

on (release) {
var x = 5;
_root.gotoAndPlay ("monnonego");
}


Here is the code that asks the question, assigned to a keyframe (later down the root movie):

if (x == 3) {
gotoAndPlay ("profile", 34);
} else {
if (x == 4) {
gotoAndPlay ("portfolio", 34);
} else {
if (x == 5) {
gotoAndPlay ("contact", 34);
}
}
}

Any ideas?? Thanks in advanced!!

Passing Variables
I have some actionscript that doesn't work. I don't see what's wrong. Can anybody help me? It's about the towers of Hanoi. Here is my script:


var intaantal = AantalSchijven;
var intstart = 1;
var inteinde = 3;

function hanoi (n,intstartstaaf,inteindstaaf) {
if (n == 1) {
van = intstartstaaf;
naar = inteindstaaf;
trace(van);
trace(naar);
} else {
inttussenstaaf = ((6 - intstartstaaf) - inteindstaaf);
hanoi(n-1,intstartstaaf,inttussenstaaf);
van = intstartstaaf;
naar = inteindstaaf;
trace(van);
trace(naar);
//trace(inttussenstaaf);
hanoi(n-1,inttussenstaaf,inteindstaaf);
}
}
hanoi(intaantal,intstart,inteinde);
stop ();

I made a program in VB in the same way and the program works. In the program I use byval for the variable n. Maybe that's the reason why it doesn't work but what can I do?

PASSING VARIABLES TO CGI
I know this may have been answered before, but I cant seem to find it.

I need to know if anyone knows how to get Flash to pass variable info WITHOUT shifting the characters to their ASCII code... (i.e. a comma becomes %2C)

I have a cgi script (free, of course) that is looking for this:

data_order = "news,newscontent,tips"

whereas when i submit it from a flash form, it becomes this:

data%5Forder=news%2Cnewscontent%2Ctips

I'm sure someone out there has gotten this also.

Thanks in advance for any help or pointing me in the right direction.

Passing Variables Instead Of Gas. Is This Possible?
I have a single frame movie as my start movie that I want to use to establish a variable. It's pretty much just saying

var exno = 2;

and then I load a movie.

When I trace it in the first movie, it's fine. It works. Great. But now I want the newly loaded swf movie to recognize this variable as well. How can I do that?

Any help would be appreciated.

Passing Variables
Movie1 (_level0) loads Movie2 to the same level. How can I pass a variable from Movie1 to Movie2? I know that it can be done by loading to a different level but is it possible when loading to the same level?

PLEASE HELP - Passing Vars Through MC
Hi!

Simple question.
I have MC that is called by this:
<param name=movie
value="/images/navpanel.swf?what=destination&whatID=1&lang=EN">
embed tag is the same.

Now, I have in the MC Action script following
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (menu.done == undefined) {
menu = new Object();
tree = new XML();

tree.load("/assets/navpanel.cfm?what="+what+"&whatID="+whatID+"&lang= "&lang)
;
menu.done = false;
}
if (tree.loaded && menu.done != true) {
makeFlashVars();
menu.done = true;
}
}

The problem is - MC is not passing the parameters through.

If I change all '+' in URL query string to '&' - then the movie content is
not showing
And if I put all '+' then parameters are not shown.

HELP!

How to define variables so that they are loaded from HTML and then passed
through to another XML.

pos = pos+102;
_root.p.duplicateMovieClip("p"+n, n);
_root["p"+n]._x = pos;
n += 1;
}


\\\\frame 2:

for (n=1; n<5; n++) {

Passing Variables ((HELP))
I'm having trouble passing a variable from one text field to another. I have a password protected site where the user must put in his/her userName and password. If the password is correct, I want it to read "Welcome, userName.

userName is the variable name for my input text field in frame 1.

user is the variable name for my dynamic text field name in frame 3.

frame1:
var userName = "";
var user = "";
user = "userName";
stop ();
//this is my latest attempt to pass the name the user puts in to an empty text field called user in frame 3. Needless to say, its not working.

Anyone have any suggestions????

HELP - Passing Variables
Can anyone tell me how to pass a variable from the main limeline (level0) to a variable in a movie?

I've tried targetting the movie directly, but that isn't working.

Here's the code I have:

In my text file i have the following:
url=movies/slow.swf

On the main time line:
loadvariables("url.txt", 0)

In the movie:
x = level0.url

It keeps telling me that x is undefined.
