The Meaning Of _root
Let's say you have three scenes: main (scene1), scene 2 and scene 3. Does "_root" refer only to the timeline of main, or does each scene have it's own "_root" - which can then be referred to by a mc within it.
Or another way: if you say "_root" within a mc within scene 3, is it going to look at the main(scene1) timeline - or the scene 3 timeline?
a basic question but thanks...

What Is The Meaning Of _root
I knew that _root is refer to the root of a flash document.
however I read some actionscripts written by others , I saw for example
_root["xxxxxx"+i]
_root["xxxxx"].img
_root["xxxxx"].tt
what are the meaning of these statments ?
what are the .img , .tt ?
a _root array ? (I guess and seems they are not)

What's The Meaning Of This: /:
Recently I downloaded an fla. file from flashkit that had the following actionscript (part of Flash 5 I believe, dunno.)
loadVariables("scenic.txt", "/");
/:sectiontext = "HOME";
/:sectnum = "1";
subtext = "SCENIC FILM ON THE WEB";
play();
What does the forward slash + colon mean?
Like this: /:
(and why is forward slash a parameter in the
loadVariables method shown on the first line?)

What's The Meaning?
Hi, could you explain me exactly what does this mean:
loadMovie(_parent.ihost + _parent.brand + ".swf", "brand_mc");
And, maybe how to make it work through my site
Is it possible to asign a default url like (www.site.com/movies) and then load some variables to load the category and the movie file number?

$ Before Variable Name... Meaning?
Hi,
I've noticed in a couple of examples scattered around the web that some developers use a "$" character before some class variables.
e.g.:
Code:
class blah {public var $myVar:Number;...rest of class here...
}
Does this actually mean anything? or is it just some strange PHP stylie nomenclature? It might be a really stupid question, and I've got my coat ready to make a sharp exit if it is...

What Is Meaning Of Resolution Versus Size?
Would someone please refer me to a place where I could learn about the relative meanings and relationships of resolution and size and what they mean in the different media?
I need a lesson in the basics. Questions I have keep surfacing, and sometimes a little knowledge is a dangerous thing. A pixel is one dot; a screen size may be said to be 600 x 400. So that means what?
It is 600 pixels across by 400 verticle? And what does that have to do with resolution? Does the 600 x 400 display the same on a 15" monitor, a 19" monitor, a TV screen, in a flash movie, on a photograph, a CD, etc...?
Thanx,
Brian

The Meaning Behind Root, Parent, This And Global
Hey guys.
Having been at this forum for a while now i've noticed many times that the use of _root is not recommended. instead its recommended that you use this instead.
My understanding of "this" is that it refers to the object itself....
could someone please explain the meaning behind root, parent, this and global as i am not sure and at the moment i am simply using _root for everything...
cheers guys :)

PreLoading Movieclips In The Background (meaning They Aren't Seen)
Hello all,
I was looking at this website: http://www.magwerk.com/
and I noticed that when you click to read a magazine it loads ALL the pages of the magazine one by one in the background.. until the magazine is fully loaded. That way the user won't have to wait for the WHOLE magazine to load before being able to read it.
I basically want to do the same with my project. I want to load the movie clips from an XML file and load them one by one in the background.
Can someone point me in the right direction.
PS. I'll be using FLASH 6 Player.
PSS. But I'll be upgrading the site to FLASH 8 player in a few months.

How Do I Handle A HTTP 301 Status Code? Meaning, How Do I Detect A Redirect?
i posted another thread similar to thi, but i know the problem now and need more specific help.
i have the following URL:
http://stereogum.com/mp3/Giant%20Dra...h%20Father.mp3
i try and call a URLRequest on it to play it in the mp3 player like so:
Code:
theURL = "http://stereogum.com/mp3/Giant%20Drag%20-%20Oh%20Father.mp3";
newSong:URLRequest = new URLRequest(theURL);
theMP3.load(newSong);
theMP3.play();
and it does not work. why? enter the URL into your browser. it gives a 301 redirect code and brings you to this URL instead:
http://download.stereogum.com/mp3/Gi...h%20Father.mp3
ok, but.. AS3 seems to have absolutely no idea this happened. furthermore, if trace out the data i get from the original address in AS3 using this code:
Code:
var pageLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(theURL);
pageLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, traceData);
pageLoader.load(request);
function traceData(event:Event):void {
trace(pageLoader.data);
}
i dont even get the 301 with the correct redirect URL. or maybe i am, but it's in the HTTP header? if thats the case, how the hell do i view that?
basically, if you perform a basic GET request on that original URL in telnet, you get a perfectly nice looking 301 code with the redirect URL to downloads.stereogum.com. obviously firefox and any browser handles this automatically.
how can i handle this from AS3 so that if i get a 301 code, i can parse out the redirect URL and access that instead? ugh.

I am working on an interactive movie, the movie consists of a number of small movie clips. I need each clip to play and when it reaches it’s end stop and tell the main time line to move to next frame, on that frame the next MC will [play and do the same.
I am trying to use this script for the last frame of the movie:
_root.play()
I also tried “_root.gotoAndPlay()” and “_root.nextFrame()
It doesn’t seem to work.

This _root And That _root, Parents, Children, LoadMovie...
I'm building a showcase to show a bunch of my work. Let's call my work "children" and the showcase file the "parent".
A lot of the children files have some actionscript that references functions and variables on the root level. However, when those files are loaded into the parent file, the root is now the root of the parent file, not the child file.
SOME of the stuff, I've been able to remedy by opening each flash file and copying and pasting all that crud into the shell flash movie.
Unfortunately, not all of my wizardry is working, and hey, who knows what's wrong. Since the individual files each have functionality that works on it's own, is there some way of telling those children files to look at the root ONLY on their own file, or, as soon as the swf is loaded, the root is changed?
How can I avoid this in the future?
ALSO, is there some way to globally override the "getURL" function call so any and all clicks are now dead links?

_root._root.testbox?
I have this small problem.
I have 2 swfs(main.swf and links.swf)
I then load links into main. In links I loadvar using php and sql.
I fetch links from my sql databas and print it in php.
But it doesnt work when I load links into main.
It only works when I view links.swf directly.
Example:
links.php
databas connection etc etc
mysql query etc etc
print"&name=$name";
print"&link=$link";
print"&status=DONE";
in flash(links.swf)i then have this:
status = "LOADING";
loadVariablesNum("links.php", 0, "POST");
if (status eq "LOADING") {
gotoAndPlay (_currentframe-1);
} else {
gotoAndPlay (2);
}
I have 3 dynamic boxes called:name,link and status.
and a stop() on frame 2.
So how do I get this to work? I´m sure you guys know the answer to this.
I also have another question.
When I look at the links.swf directly only the first post appears and I want the whole list so that the user/visitor can scroll the link list. How do I loop that in flash or is it in php/sql It should be done and if so,, how would the php code look like.
Would this work?
$query="select * from links";
$result=mysql_query($query);
$name=mysql_result($result,"name");
$name=mysql_result($result,"link");
print"&name=$name";
print"&url=$link";
print"&status=DONE";
How do I then make the name linkable?
I can only have one dynamic box in the flash right?
So that the name flashkit is the link to flashkit.
Please help me with the above,, really need to get this to work.

_root._parent.? Problem With "_root" Etc
I have been using flash for some time now and understand basic actionscript. However only just recently(last few days), i have gone onto more advanced stuff like cursors (advanced for me )
Well i am making a flash movie that incorporates all of my testings for people to see.
I am current;y working on a movie where the cursor is a knife, and when the cursor goes over this picture of someone, the knife (cursor) should go to and play the second frame of the knife (cursor) which has added blood.
I.e, when the mouse goes over the picture, the knife becomes a picture with blood, so in effect you are stabbing the picture. (don't worry, i'm not a sadist!)
At the moment my movie is like this...
drag drag2
(pic) (knife)
^ ^
| |
<<drag_mc>>
^
|
Scene 1 -----> navigation...
(root?)
Description: The scene one has two movies in it, "navigation" (which is OK) and the "drag_mc". The "navigation" is fine so i won't go into that. The "drag_mc", then has two movie clips in it, "drag" and "drag2".
I assume that to make the "drag2"(cursor) go to frame 2 when it hovers over "drag"(picture) that the "drag" should have a on(rollover)
command. I've put in the command, but i'm having troubles linking that to the "drag"'s frame 2.
I have just messed about with _parent and stuff, but never understood it.
Please could someone help me here, and/or tell me exactly how the _root and stuff works??
P.S. the on (rollover) is actionscript for the drag movie, and not in the movie if you get what i mean....
---newbie in distress---
EDIT: the picture did not come out as planned, but it is still readable. Just remember that the two movies ("drag" and "drag2") are placed in the "drag_mc" movie

A Button In A MC In Frame 1 Of _root Hiding An MC In Frame 2 Of _root?
Hi. I have a button, "auroraB" in a movie clip "startupMC" which is in frame 1 of _root. There is another MC, "scenic" in frame 2 of _root.
The button "auroraB" is clicked and takes the user to frame 79 of the MC in frame 1. From there the user clicks another button to go to frame 2 of the _root.
How do I get it to hide MC "scenic" in frame 2 of _root when the button "aurroraB" is clicked? Thanks

Both send1.text and total3.text are input text fields in Flash! When I test this out it works fine but when I get it up online it doesn't work! The information in total3.text doesn't get sent to send1.text!! Also note both have Var titles asigned to them! Let me know if you can figure out what's wrong! Thanks!

"_root.MCname" + "_root.MCvalue"

how can I grab the value contained within a MC name, e.g.:
Code:
duplicateMovieclip(_root.myMC, "_root.myMC"+someIntegerVariable, level);
_root.myMC+someIntegerVariable._x = 100;
It happens that the parser cannot parse the second row, since
"Left side of assignment operator must be variable or property".
My target is to make the sum of two instance names as a single instance name.
thank you very much!

_root
Help I've got some flash 5 code that I have to edit yet I don't know flash 5 code well enough.
The problem is that all the code is referencing the _root directory, but I need to put it into another file. Now when I was using flash 4 code I would simply use relative references, but I don't know how to move outside of a file in flash 5. For Flash 4 I would go ../blah.
How can I do this???
Please help

If _root ?
Hello friendly flashers,
I have a new problem.;-)
Here is the idea.
It has to be a check for a button. And then goto the correct frame.
if it's onframe 1 goto frame 40
on (release) {
tellTarget ("_root") {
gotoAndPlay (40);
if (_root) {has to check frame 2
tellTarget ("_root") {
gotoAndPlay (41);
}
}
}
}
Hope you understand my question.
Thanks in advance

_root Help
i'm desiging a website for my friend. on request, i made all buttons in a movie clip that have pull down buttons. a nifty trick, but i cannot get the buttons to work properly.
i use normal mode, and it hasn't worked properly. i've heard that to function, it needs the _root. command, but i have fooled around with it and am better off asking for some real help. if you could get one button to work, i could copy/paste/edit for the others.
i'd like the buttons to work when pressed. the content is on scene1.
please help

_root. What? Please Help
hey flashers,
ok, i have a movie clip, inside the movie clip is a button that when clicked, is supposed to load a movie into a blank movie clip on the main timeline. its not working as you probably figured. I gave the blank movie clip on the main timeline an instance name of "dtext". the action script i have for the button is this.
Code:
on (release) {
loadMovie ("dynamic text box.swf", "dtext");
}
i know it has something to do with that .root command, but i cant figure it out. where does the root command go, and is there anything else i am doing wrong? please help.
Jacob
