Can you explain that code a little to me? You could try using loadVars and return a status in xml rather than loadVariablesNum... var myVars:LoadVars = new LoadVars; var xml_results:XML = new XML(); xml_results.ignoreWhite = true; xml_results.onLoad = function(success:Boolean){ if (success){ } else { } } myVars.sendAndLoad(yourfile.asp, xml_results, POST); Sincerely, Loren ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

[Flashcoders] Missing Pixels???
Hi: I am having issues with screen clarity at run time. Background: SWF A is loaded into movieclip Screener in SWF B. Both SWFs are set for 30 fps. SWF A and Screener measure 922x530. SWF B is about 100 pixels larger all the way around. The target screen resolution is 1024x768. SWF A contains a screenshot of a software interface that takes up the whole 922x530. Problem: When the presentation runs and SWF A is loaded and is playing in SWF B, we've noticed a slight blur (in some cases). In others, it appears that some of the words (which are on the software interface screenshot) appear to be missing pixels (i.e. parts of some letters are missing). Efforts: We've tried resizing Screener and have had some success, but for some reason, we cannot get it totally clear. Any ideas?

[Flashcoders] Styles in Flash
Hi: Is creating or importing HTML rendered text and then using CSS the only way to really have styles in Flash?

[Flashcoders] Controlling an Embedded SWF
Hi: I have a SWF (SWF A) that I'm loading into a movieclip (Movieclip C)which is part of another SWF (SWF B). Basically, SWF B functions as a player, with play and pause controls. These controls control Movieclip C where the external SWF A is loaded into. Normally, I have had no problem with this and it always works. At run time, when you click the pause button on SWF B, a stop() command is issued to Movieclip C, which stops the play of the external movieclip (SWF A) loaded into it. However, I did a screen capture with Captivate and published it as a SWF. I loaded this SWF (SWF A) into Movieclip C in SWF B at run time. However, clicking the controls on SWF I created has NO EFFECT on the SWF I created in Captivate. It just keeps playing. I guess all SWFs are NOT created equal. How can I make this work?

[Flashcoders] HELP STILL NEEDED, PLEASE!
Folks: I still need help on this. I know there are some really, really smart folks on this list (smarter than me). Can you please help me? I am beginning to work with screens and slides. I understand how to load external swfs into my slides or screens. Here's the question: How do I write code such that when my external swf that is loaded into the current slide or screen finishes playing, the application will automatically move to the next slide (or another slide or screen)?

[Flashcoders] Slides/Screens Question - Help!
OK. I am creating this in a Flash Slide Presentation, NOT the normal Flash document. I have two buttons (play and pause) on the Master Slide (Presentation). These buttons need to control the external content (external SWF) that is loaded into each slide of the presentation. For example, when Johnny clicks the Pause button (located on the Master Slide), content1.swf which is loaded and playing inside Slide 1 stops. I can't figure out the scoping on Slides and Forms. Can anyone help? If anyone knows of any really good web tutorials on Flash Form Applications and Flash Slide Presentations, please let me know.

[Flashcoders] Scoping Issue with a Function - Help, please
Hi: Can someone help me with a scoping issue? SWF A is being loaded into SWF B. Currently, there's a function located in SWF A that is triggered by a user clicking on a movieclip in SWF A. Basically, I am trying to make it trigger from a button in SWF B, instead of triggering by a button in SWF A. When a user clicks Button B (located on SWF B), I would like it to call the function located in SWF A. This function cause a menu to slide from the left side.

[Flashcoders] eLearning Standards Guide?

[Flashcoders] SourceSafe??? Recommendations needed.
Hi: We are slowing building our eLearning group in our company. We are finding that we really need a system like SourceSafe. The question is, does anyone know if SourceSafe (or some other system handles): FLA, SWF files BMP, GIF, PNG, JPG files WAV files DOC files PDF files FM files (Framemaker) files PSD files Corel files We are looking for one system running on a server that would be able to house all of these file types (maybe more) and provide versioning, check in / check out, etc. Also, it would be nice if the system could do comparisons. (Although this may be asking for too much). For example, it could compare 2 docs and tell what the differences are. However, this is a nicety, NOT a requirement. I appreciate any advice.

[Flashcoders] PDF to Flash
Does anyone know how you can put a PDF into Flash? The only thing I can find is FlashPaper, which is basically a print driver that converts whatever you send to it into a SWF file.

Hi: I don't recall seeing an answer to this. If I missed it, please let me know. See below: Message: 4 Date: Sun, 15 Jan 2006 00:38:01 + From: Stephen Ford [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Flashcoders] Listener objects vs event handler functions ... To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed If this is an example of the listener object approach: myObj = new Object(); myObj.onMouseDown = myFunction; function myFunction() { trace(tracing something); } Mouse.addListener(myObj); ... and the listener object approach is favored over the event handler function approach, what would the above code look like if it were written with the event handler function approach. Where you can use one approach, can you always use the other ? (trying to understand the difference and where to use one instead of the other). Apparently, the main reason the listener object approach is favored is because multiple listener objects can receive events from the same component/movieclip/etc. Does anyone have an example of this so I can see the advantage in action. Thanks in advance for any assist, Stephen. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
