Ok, this is a flash question.... I've got a class I'm using in an app - it's really simple, just is a 'slideshow' type class; it gets a list of images and cycles through them as a slideshow with an interval between.
Now it's being used in a movieclip that is in turn being loaded in a Window component. When a user clicks the window component close button, I've got it unloading the movieclip instance; but the slideshow class still tries to continue cycling through it's images array -- ie it's 'instance' is still going even though the movieclip that birthed it is gone. For example: the slideshow class, upon birth, gets it's 'owner/parent' movieclip upon it's birth. It then creates a new movieclip (myBack) and starts attaching jpgs to the myBack instance. When the main screen movieclip in the Window instance is removed, myBack no longer has a _url because it doesn't exist. I thought I could use the fact that myBack==undefined to clearInterval() and stop the phantom slideshow, but it doesn't stop. So how does one 'unload' a class, or really, a class instance? _______________________________________________ [email protected] 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
