RE: [Flashcoders] onLoadComplete, but no onLoadInit
Hi Michael,
I address the problem of testing cache-busting code in the IDE in my blog:
http://blog.neo-archaic.net/2006/08/02/nocache-for-javascript-and-flash.htm
Basically, what you need to do is check for System.capabilites.playerType
before adding the cache-buster to the url.
var loader:MovieClipLoader;
var viewLoader:MovieClip;
var url:String = images/catalogue/collection/cat1.jpg;
if (System.capabilities.playerType == PlugIn
|| System.capabilities.playerType == ActiveX){
url+=?nocache=+new Date().getTime();
}
loader.loadClip (url, viewLoader);
This, of course, won't prevent the other problem you mentioned, large files
downloading multiple times, but it can be quite handy for often-updated
content.

seems that MovieClipLoader events do not fire correctly
when content
is loaded from cache. if this is your problem, would appended a
cache-killing query string to the url work? something like:
mcl.loadclip(someswf.swf?d= + new Date().valueOf(),
targetMc
);
Apparently this is a problem, as well as onLoadInit not
working correctly all the time when publishing using the
Flash 9 alpha. (And in that case, it fails sporadically in
Firefox and the IDE as well.)
Cache-busting is not a great solution, since 1) it makes it
impossible to test anything anywhere except from a server,
and 2) it could cause some large-ish files to download
multiple times. I think I'll just have to come up with a
customized solution and, in general, learn not to rely on onLoadInit.
Suck.
