Some People It Updates, Some People Not...
Hey guys -- mainly oldnewbie...I'm having a connection problem -- Heres my code so far...


//Create the LoadVars object and load data into it
ind = new Array();
name = new Array();
team = new Array();
hp = new Array();
ap = new Array();
x = new Array();
y = new Array();

ih = new String()
nh = new String()
th = new String()
hh = new String()
ah = new String()
xh = new String()
yh = new String()

nh = ""
th = ""
hah = ""
xyh = ""

myData = new LoadVars();
myData.load("http://68.59.134.62/live.php");
myData.onLoad = function(succes){
    for(var i=0; i<33; i++){
        ind = this["ind"+i];
        name = this["name"+i];
        team = this["team"+i];
        hp = this["hp"+i];
        ap = this["ap"+i];
        x = this["x"+i];
        y = this["y"+i];
        // A few traces to check...
        
        nh = nh + name + "<br>";
        th = th + team + "<br>";
        hah = hah + hp + ", " + ap + "<br>";
        xyh = xyh + x + ", " + y + "<br>";
        //trace("ind"+i+": "+ind);
        //trace("name"+i+": "+name);
        //trace("team"+i+": "+team);
        //trace("hp"+i+": "+hp);
    }
        NamesTxt.htmlText = nh;
        TeamsTxt.htmlText = th;
        hpapTxt.htmlText = hah;
        xyTxt.htmlText = xyh;

};
myData.unload
myData = null


Now, my problem, I have 2 layers, 1 with the actionscript in like 15 frames (not 15 keyframes), and the text boxes in a 2nd frame -- now the problem is...some people see it refresh, others dont.

What would be the best way to be refreshing this php in flash?? -- if the people go to live.php in IE -- and hit refresh, it takes no time at all to refresh all the data.

Why are some people not getting the refresh and others are?

Oldnewbie, if you want the files to look at email me at tktiger@tkwired.com -- I will send them to you...I need to have everyone that sees the flash document to be able to be getting these refreshed values pretty quickly.

Help Me On This, People.
Hey there fellow actionscripters,

If ever you have any samples which you can show me, thanx.

Do You People Even K Now?
Do you people even know what I am talking about with my flash movie file?

I altered the code I had before to:

on (release) {
if (MYvar == ya) {
stopAllSounds ();
MYvar = na;
} else {
gotoAndPlay (1);
MYvar = ya;
}
}

but for some reason it still doesn't work...

on the main timeline I have 1 frame... Then on the movie timeline I have one frame.. So.. the gotoAndPlay is calling the frame from the main timeline...

Can someone please Help me???

- Thanks in Advance..

People
Does anyone have any animated flash people that I can have for a tutioral project ?

I Eat People
Hopefully my stupid subject got some attention.

Is there any way to use the _loadmovienum so that MC's will always load on top of themselves, while the current mc stays in the background. I have 6 MC representing different pages, and when a new MC is loaded I want the current MC to stay in the background until the new preloader is done.

Any ideas?

I Wonder If You People Can Help.
Hi folks, i wonder if you people can help.

This could be a easy question but it's a swine for me.
Background:- Set a variable called -Key- to False. If you pick a key up then the variable -Key- will then be set to True.
If you try to enter a door and the -Key- is true then you my open the door.

How do you set a Variable as i've tried with no luck and could you tell me an If statment saying if -Key- =True then goto and play ?.

Thanks for reading this and your help...

Posted in wrong catorgory please can you go there but comment here thanks Link to post.

Why Do Some People Use Var?
I've noticed that a lot of people(esp those who seem to know what they are doing) use the var statement when executing a function as opposed to just calling the function directly.

ie.

var tw:Tween = new Tween(t,"_xscale",Strong.easeOut,t._xscale,0,1,tru e);

instead of just

new Tween(t,"_xscale",Strong.easeOut,t._xscale,0,1,tru e);

is there a good reason? (I suspect there must be)

Chat console project

I'm making a chat console with text fields. I'm having diffculties getting the chat boxes to "talk" with eachother. I need the user to be able to type into the bottom text field & it to display in the top text field.I need this to happen when the user presses the enter key, but 4 now I can use a button to attach this action to just get it to work. This is what i have so far(inthe object actions, of the button)...

on (release) {
gChatHistory.str = gChatHistory.str+gChat.str;
}

When I test, the result is that the bottom text field displays the text, BUT it dosn't transfer the typed text into the top textfield. I'm a begginer in programming, but I'm ready to try almost anything. Pls dish out the ideas,
thank-you

Anyone with any great ideas???

This Could Help A Lot Of People If Someone Has Answer
Ok I have this project I am working on which you can find here http://www.rustygeorge.com/instructions.swf Please allow a minute to download for I don't have a preloader on it. This flash project is to go on a cd presentation so no need for one at this point.

So my question is, and please reference the link because I'm not too sure how to explain. But, on my menu I would like to have it so that people working through the presentation can only go as far in the menu as they have completed. For example, someone completes "section 1" and then can move on to "section 2". But lets say they want to reference something in "section 1" and then go back to "section 2" without letting them go to "section 3 without completing everything before that. Is there some kind of actionscript that says if this adds up to this then allow them to go there or somethign to that effect. Also, I want to show that they have completed certain sections by keeping them highlighted.

Hope this makes sense and please reference the link to see what I'm talking about. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Why Are Some People Not Able To View My Changes?
Hi, bit of a strange one this so bare with me:

I have a .swf file that uses an external .xml file

The problem is that I had to put a "closed for maintenence" sign instead of my content for a couple of weeks. I gave it the same name as the original .swf content.

I have reverted back to my original .swf file but some people are still getting the old .swf (the "closed for maintenence" one.)

This has happened a couple of times, it's like their computers don't know that there is a more upto date version of the file.

Has anyone seen this and do they know what is going on?

Thanks in advance.
