FlashPaperLoader is not an out-of-the-box Flex Component. Where did you get it, from the Macromedia site? You imply that it is an MXML file so it must be an example somewhere. I'll bet Manish thinks you're talking about mx:Loader.
My guess is that it only has a contentPath variable and isn't written to support run-time changes. However if you have the source, it should be easy enough to do. Basically the contentPath property needs to be a getter/setter pair so that the rest of the code can receive "notification" of a change to that property's value and execute another load sequence. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "jozef_pichler" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > So what does the loader's 'source' property contain once setFile () > has > > been called? > > many thanks for your efforts, Manish. > source is 'undefined' even after changes. > I cant get any 'variable content' going on the FPLoader. > the only way I can see the FlashPaper loaded into flex > is really that line: > > <FlashPaperLoader id="myLoader" > contentPath="http://localhost:8300/.../test.swf" > width="100%" > height="100%" /> > > following the code with the changes: > mySWF declared outside function. > > -------- begin source ------------------ > > <mx:Application > xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml" > xmlns = "*"> > > <mx:Script> > <![CDATA[ > var mySWF = "http://localhost:8300/GPML/test.swf"; > > function setFile() > { > mySWF = "http://localhost:8300/GPML/test.swf"; > mx.controls.Alert.show("Source: " + myLoader.source); > } > ]]> > </mx:Script> > > <mx:Panel> > > <FlashPaperLoader id="myLoader" > contentPath="{mySWF}" > width="100%" > height="100%" /> > > </mx:Panel> > > <mx:Button label="set the file name and look if the flash paper > loader responds" > click="setFile()" /> > > </mx:Application> -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com Yahoo!
