Close, do: snd = new Sound(this);
----- Original Message ----- From: "Tom Fitzpatrick" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, July 05, 2005 5:13 PM Subject: [flexcoders] embedded sounds I'm trying to embed a number of mp3 sounds and play them back in various ways. The first way is to select the sound names from a comboBox. It's not working. So, for an embedded sound defined as: [Embed('beki1A.mp3')] var beki1A:String; I've defined the following function; var snd:Sound; function startSound(currentSound) { snd = new Sound; snd.attachSound(currentSound); snd.start(); } If I call this function with a button click, like this: <mx:Button label="Start" id="b1" click="startSound(beki1A);" /> it works fine. If I pass the value of "currentSound" from a comboBox, with the following function specified as the change event of the comboBox: function playSong() { var currentSound= songComboBox.selectedItem.label; startSound(currentSound); } it does not work. When I trace the value of "beki1A" in the buttonclick version, it has a resource prefix - and this appears to be "lost" when it's assigned to another variable via the comboBox. Or is it something even simpler?
