Re: [Flashcoders] Check Problem
I did this by making a radio button MC with two frames bith with stop actions.
When it is clicked I tell it to gotoAndStop(2) (frame 2) and tell the other
radion button to gotoAndStop(1), therefore when you click one it becomes
checked and the other becomes unchecked. There may be a more elegant way but
that worked great for me. Victor

Re: [Flashcoders] Q: passing flash form data with NO server sidescripting

My goal is to simply pass name value pairs from a form...I assume the only way I can do this is using sendAndLoad and a LoadVars object. Since the hosting provider dooesn't support any server side scripting, instead of targeting a specific file on the server, I was simply going to target a directory and then retrieve the name value pairs from the server's log file. Does this make sense? Any other solutions greatly appreciated!

Re: [Flashcoders] Delegating Events and AS2
John, I think so but what I am trying to do it set up a BtnFunc Class that I
can pass an argument to in order to set up the functionality of the button
(argument bein the button instance name). I am pretty close I have this so far:
FLA (with btnOnStage on stage):
import mx.utils.Delegate;
function handleEvent(eventObj) {
trace('handleConstruct')
trace(eventObj.target);
trace(eventObj.type);
trace(eventObj.message);
trace(eventObj.time);
}
var myBtnClass = new BtnFunc(0, btnOnStage);
myBtnClass.addEventListener('click', Delegate.create(this, handleEvent));
--
Class (BtnFunc.as):
import mx.events.EventDispatcher;
import mx.utils.Delegate;
class BtnFunc {
var addEventListener:Function;
var removeEventListener:Function;
var dispatchEvent:Function;
function BtnFunc(id, btn) {
EventDispatcher.initialize(this);
btn.onRelease = function() {
trace('dispatching event');
dispatchEvent({type:'click', target:this, message:btn+'
was clicked'});
};
}
}
It is firing off the event perfectly but my listener is not getting it and thus
not running the handleEvent func. What's the prob?
var myClass = new Timer(1000);
myClass.addEventListener('timeout', Delegate.create(this, handleConstruct));

Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Delegating Events and AS2
I think Delegate gives you what you're talking about Vic - control over your
scope issues. Delegate enables you to manage scope with in your class. So,
if you have an XML object and you want to maintain the response/return in
your class, you do just as Dan has described.
make sense?

Vic, if you've ever used the XML or NetStream classes... it mimics
those types of event updates. For example...
var xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.onLoad = function () {
// gets invoked by the XML instance
}
So if you delegate the onLoad method, you get something like this:
xmlData.onLoad = Delegate.create(this, xmlDataLoad);
... which is essentially what I am trying to do with my own classes.
Another reason I like delegating events this way, is that the
compiler will catch typos in the names of the event functions, so I
am not searching around trying to figure out why a certain event is
not firing.

Hey Dan, I like the way you do it, its pretty simple. But here is,
what probably will be an incredibly stupid question:
How do I capture the event? Thanks, V
I personally use an extremely simplified way of dealing with events.
I've used EventDispatcher before, but it feels like overkill most of
the time. I realize my method has no ability to multicast events,
but it's quick, easy to read and gets the job done.
Here's an example:
___
// WidgetManager.as
import mx.utils.Delegate;
class WidgetManager {
private var _widget1:Widget;
private var _widget2:Widget;
public function WidgetManager (timeline:MovieClip) {
_widget1 = new Widget(1, timeline.widget1_mc);
_widget1.clickEvent = Delegate.create(this, widgetClick); // add event
_widget2 = new Widget(2, timeline.widget2_mc);
_widget2.clickEvent = Delegate.create(this, widgetClick); // add event
}
private function widgetClick (eventObj:Object):Void {
trace(widget + eventObj.id + was clicked);
eventObj.target.clickEvent = null; // remove event
}
}
___
// Widget.as
import mx.utils.Delegate;
class Widget {
public var clickEvent:Function; // event method
private var _id:Number;
private var _buttonMC:MovieClip;
public function Widget (id:Number, mc:MovieClip) {
_id = id;
_buttonMC = mc;
_buttonMC.onPress = Delegate.create(this, buttonPress);
}
public function buttonPress ():Void {
clickEvent({target:this, id: _id});
}
}

Re: [Flashcoders] Delegating Events and AS2
Hey Dan, I like the way you do it, its pretty simple. But here is, what
probably will be an incredibly stupid question:
How do I capture the event? Thanks, V
I personally use an extremely simplified way of dealing with events.
I've used EventDispatcher before, but it feels like overkill most of
the time. I realize my method has no ability to multicast events,
but it's quick, easy to read and gets the job done.
Here's an example:
___
// WidgetManager.as
import mx.utils.Delegate;
class WidgetManager {
private var _widget1:Widget;
private var _widget2:Widget;
public function WidgetManager (timeline:MovieClip) {
_widget1 = new Widget(1, timeline.widget1_mc);
_widget1.clickEvent = Delegate.create(this, widgetClick); // add event
_widget2 = new Widget(2, timeline.widget2_mc);
_widget2.clickEvent = Delegate.create(this, widgetClick); // add event
}
private function widgetClick (eventObj:Object):Void {
trace(widget + eventObj.id + was clicked);
eventObj.target.clickEvent = null; // remove event
}
}
___
// Widget.as
import mx.utils.Delegate;
class Widget {
public var clickEvent:Function; // event method
private var _id:Number;
private var _buttonMC:MovieClip;
public function Widget (id:Number, mc:MovieClip) {
_id = id;
_buttonMC = mc;
_buttonMC.onPress = Delegate.create(this, buttonPress);
}
public function buttonPress ():Void {
clickEvent({target:this, id: _id});
}
}

Hi All!,
wondering if someone can point me in the right direction. I am trying
to find a ASBoradcast / Event Dispatcher light model for my app.
Basically i have a number of MCs that will have to either react to
events being broadcast or broadcast their own.
I have Essential AS2 by Colin Moock. Trying to find something i can
import and maybe pass scope to it, vs have my main class extend it.
I've googled, searched the archived and exausted my more talented
flash developer friends.
Thanks,

Re: [Flashcoders] Delegating Events and AS2
Danno, that is really cool, I will try that but I have done it, I made a site
template that, when a button is clicked it dispatches an Event...but I had the
hardest time doing it. I am looking for a simple way to do it that works in a
Class. without worrying about scope. Mine relies heavily upon scope. Anyone
have any example? Thanks, V

Vic, if you've ever used the XML or NetStream classes... it mimics
those types of event updates. For example...
var xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.onLoad = function () {
// gets invoked by the XML instance
}
So if you delegate the onLoad method, you get something like this:
xmlData.onLoad = Delegate.create(this, xmlDataLoad);
... which is essentially what I am trying to do with my own classes.
Another reason I like delegating events this way, is that the
compiler will catch typos in the names of the event functions, so I
am not searching around trying to figure out why a certain event is
not firing.

Re: [Flashcoders] embedded font not displaying
I have been having font issues with Flash for the longest time. First, I want to say hello to you all, I am brand new here and really impressed by the level of programming. I came from actionscript.org where I almost always help people out but I dont think that is going to be the case for me here for some time. Anyway, I was working on this international site that had to display different languages depending upon an HTML querystring. The copy is pulled from XML. So what I needed to do was to use actionscript to embed the font but when I did that I could not format it as HTML. Does anyone have the solution...it could be myText.htmlText = 'foo' but I am not sure.

Re: [Flashcoders] embedded font not displaying
But if ido this wont i have to embed fonts for all fonts (Chineese, arabic, english, etc.)? Doesnt that make the movie huge? -- Original Message -- From: John Grden [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: Flashcoders mailing list flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Date: Mon, 25 Sep 2006 14:27:47 -0400 also, depending on the what sytles you apply to your html (IE: bi), you'll have to embed that part of the font as well. to do this, 1. create a dynamic textfield on stage and select the font you want to use 2. Click the render text as HTML button in the property inspector 3. Double click to enter text 4. type: r b i bi 5. select the b, click the bold button. Select the i, click the italic button, select bi and click the bold then italic button. 6. what you should have is something that looks like this: r b i bi 7. Click the embed... button - select Uppercase, Lowercase, Numerals, Punctuation - click ok to close put this textbox off stage somewhere and hide it. It's only job is to include the normal, italic, bold and bold/italic font outlines. Create another dynamic text box that will recieve your HTML formatted data and you should be good. hth vic!
