Re: [Flashcoders] onLoadInit running when swf doesn't exist
I've seen issues where a download fails (connection is cut off after
it started) where onLoadInit is called instead of onLoadError. To
detect this I simply check the bytesLoaded versus bytesTotal on the
movie clip I was loading it into.
It's possible you're hitting the same situation (file doesn't exist,
but whatever is serving it is reporting that in a weird way) so it
might be worth doing that check in onLoadInit.

function onLoadInit(tContainer:MovieClip):Void {
stuff here
}
So it tries to load in the .swf, and if this isn't found, it looks for the
XML. Running locally, this is working fine. But running online, it's
failing: despite the fact that the swf file doesn't exist, it's running
onLoadInit instead of onLoadError.
Anyone have any thoughts?

RE: [Flashcoders] onLoadInit running when swf doesn't exist
have you tried defining your listening function before your loadText
function ? Had similar problems when defining the event handlers after the
load() call. Also you could use LoadVars to test the existence of the file
firsthand.
import mx.utils.Delegate;
var fileExists:Boolean = false;
var testFile:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
testFile.onLoad = Delegate.create(this, testExist);
function testExist(success:Boolean) {
fileExists = success;
}
testFile.load(pPath + texts.swf);
Then load either the swf or the xml accordingly.

Subject: [Flashcoders] onLoadInit running when swf doesn't exist
I've got some information that might either be contained in a swf file or an
xml file. What I'm doing (stripped down) is this:
function loadText():Void {
var tSwf:String = pPath + texts.swf;
var tContainer:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip(txt,
this.getNextHighestDepth());
var tLoader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
tLoader.addListener(this);
tLoader.loadClip(tSwf, tContainer);
}
function onLoadError(tContainer:MovieClip):Void {
tContainer.removeMovieClip();
importText(pPath + texts.xml);
}
function onLoadInit(tContainer:MovieClip):Void {
stuff here
}
So it tries to load in the .swf, and if this isn't found, it looks for the
XML. Running locally, this is working fine. But running online, it's
failing: despite the fact that the swf file doesn't exist, it's running
onLoadInit instead of onLoadError.
