[Flashcoders] swfaddress help needed
Hi Friends.
I have seen the tutorial for the swfaddress in gotoandlearn.com, but
I want to use it on a project I have which is a quite different
situation,
1. the website is dynamic the parts of it are me on runtime, are not
present on the stage at the moment, are just called and assembly
depending of the name of the button that click the call.
2. the swfaddress works good when it comes to show the address in the
address bar of the browser, but when I try to use the directional
arrows of the browser I'm shooting at the dark totally.
Because I don't know how to make it work, since he tutorial never
mention about this particular.
here is the code to create the different parts.
//the part of the import the swfAddress is here, no problem at all
//the part of the set value//
switch(e.value){
case /contact
//here I don't know how to going forward since all my past intents
were so frustrating...any ideas?//
}
this.contact.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, newClick);
function newClick(e:MouseEvent):void{
//here is the swfAddress//
swfAddress.setValue(e.currentTarget.name);
var newWindow:NewWindow = new NewWindow();
newWindow.name=e.currentTarget.name;
an so on the structures that are in the windows
///the part of the addchild that works good//
}
I hope someone could help me...any advice welcome.

[Flashcoders] SecurityPanel events?
Hello. :) Is there any way to detect when the user has finished using the Settings Manager to change their security settings? - user right-clicks on the Flash - selects Settings to open the Settings Manager - changes their settings - clicks Close to close the Settings Manager I want to be able to trigger code in my Flash when they click the Close button in the Settings Manager.. but the SecurityPanel class that you use to open the Setting Manager panel and the doesn't appear to throw any events. I've also tried putting a Mouse event listener in the app's main class and that doesn't trigger when the Close button is clicked in the Settings Manager panel. Thank you.

You should not create your NewWindow in the newClick function. Do so on SWFAddressEvent.CHANGE
event instead.

Re: [Flashcoders] swfaddress help needed
Hi,
Like Kenneth said - you need to pass all your navigation from Flash
through SWFAddress and don't directly create windows when someone clicks
a button in Flash, but you listen for the changes to the SWFAddress
value and open windows based on the value. That way, when someone
clicks the forward back buttons in the browser, the history changes
the SWFAddress value, so your Flash will keep up...
//Somewhere in your init, you listen for changes to SWFAddress
SWFAddress.addEventListener(SWFAddressEvent.CHANGE, _changeHandler);
//Do your normal setup for buttons.
this.contact.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, newClick);
var internal:Boolean = false;
function newClick(e:MouseEvent):void{
//here is the swfAddress//
//You only set the value in here - you wait for SWFAddress to tell
you something has changed before doing anything
swfAddress.setValue(e.currentTarget.name);
//You might want to set a variable here like internal = true if
you want to know whether clicks are from inside Flash or from the browser..
internal = true;
}
//Handle changes in
function _changeHandler(event:SWFAddressEvent):void {
var newWindow:NewWindow = new NewWindow();
//The path value of the event contains the new SWFAddress path in
your history.
//On first load of the page you will get / as the path so you need
to handle this.
var path:String = event.path;
if(/ == path) {
path = /home;
}
//Maybe do something if your internal variable was true.
if(true == internal) {
//Do something different maybe if someone clicked in Flash?
}
//reset internal
internal = false;
newWindow.name= path;
//...
}

[Flashcoders] assigning variable to a movie clip and a MOUSE_DOWN event
Hi All,
New to AS3. I'm enjoying it, but occasionally I run into issue where I
don't know even what to search for to learn more.
The short of it is this:
//The first line is using an object o to store the loader info.
//This was need because I had loaded an external swf and am loading
//assets from it's library into the main container.
var asset_class = o.loader_info.applicationDomain.getDefinition(linkage
name) as Class;
var asset_mc:MovieClip = new asset_class() as MovieClip;
addChild(asset_mc);
asset_mc.my_variable = some value;
asset_mc.buttonMode = true;
asset_mc.useHandCursor = true;
asset_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, loadGame);
function loadGame(e:MouseEvent):void
{
trace(e.target.my_variable);
trace(e.target)
}
The trace will give me the expected value if I click on certain parts of
asset_mc.
If I click on a nested movie clip it will trace as undefined.
So, it seems that e.target changes depending on what I click on within
asset_mc.
I had a similar problem when I used MOUSE_OVER instead of ROLL_OVER.
Anyway, that target gives me a different value depending on what I click on.
Sort of makes sense, but how do I drill down to get to the variable I
assigned to asset_mc? I can think of ways, but it seems awfully convoluted.
I think what I'm looking for is the root of asset_mc. How do I find it?
Any ideas?
Hope I'm making sense.
Thank you,
Kurt

[Flashcoders] Query String + Loader odd issue
Using Flash CS3 pro, trying to load a Flex based swf into a non-Flex swf and pass a query string to the Flex application. Simple enough in theory, using a Loader just point at the file and load. Add the loader to the stage and all is good. Now for the query string. Add it to the path .. var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(path+?data=true); and launch. Error #2035: URL Not Found. Ok, well lets launch this in debug mode... wait, that works? Yep, launching with the debugger and my file loads, gets the data and all is good. Just to add to this, I have a Captivate widget that basically does exactly this and it also works fine running in a published Captivate project. It has the same code with the query string and all. Note that I also tried using URLVariables instead of the string with no change.

[Flashcoders] ReferenceError: Error #1065 issue
Hi list,
This should be simple, but for some reason refuses to cooperate. I'm working
in AS3, CS3.
I've got a super class (HsSegment) and a subclass (HsSegment_qtd1), both are
public. In the super class are the definitions for many methods, including
this definition:
protected function mthGetPDataTag(stgInput:String):String
{
//...Do stuff and return a String...
}
In the subclass I've got the call to this method:
var stgEg:String = mthGetPDataTag(stgInput);
When testing in the IDE this works fine. When testing in the browser I get
a runtime error,
ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable
hs.segments.classes:HsSegment_qtd1::mthGetPDataTag is not defined.
I've googled and found plenty of questions around this, but no answers,
other than 'make your classes public', which they are.
The other methods in the super class are defined and called essentially this
same way and work fine in both IDE and browser. What makes this one special?
What am I missing? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Bob

Re: [Flashcoders] blip.tv api?
From developer wiki that I referenced in my previous post... You may be particularly interested in the main blip.tv API, which is built on the back of open standards like RSS and JSON. Blip.tv has a RESTful JSON API which you can call from Flash. To do this you would setup a URLRequest and URLLoader to make a call to get the desired data you want. Then using something like JSON Parser included in the as3corelib (http://code.google.com/p/as3corelib/), you can parse the results. A great tutorial of this technique can be found here: http://www.cakesgood.com/2009/04/flash-cs3-actionscript-30-json-keep-it_3277.html That being said... I don't believe anyone has written a library which makes use of the blip.tv API yet. You can be the first!

Re: [Flashcoders] blip.tv api?
To try and make this a little more clear. You're basically requesting the information from their webservers using a customized url. A RESTful service you can actually use from a web browser, for example... on Twitter Search you can get your results in JSON by doing this. http://search.twitter.com/search?q=iPhone turns into this: http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=iPhone Which will return the data your looking for in a format called JSON (JavaScript Object Notation). So to clarify on what I said earlier. You can get this data into your flash application using URLLoader. Just set the URL to where the JSON data is and then request it. When you get a result back, you will have a REALLY long String of data that you want to drill into. That's where as3corelib and it's JSON.parse() method steps in. You pass JSON.parse() a String and it returns an Object. You can then drill into that Object to get the relevant data that you need. Those Java and Ruby files are just wrappers for making calls to Blip.tv web services. Unfortunately there isn't a wrapper (library) for ActionScript. Hopefully that makes it a bit more clear, I wasn't trying to be rude earlier, after re-reading my emails I may have come across that way. I apologize.
