Re: [Flashcoders] loading XML as string via parseXml: how to avoid "undefined"? (onParseComplete??!
Hello Ken,
As you don't LOAD anything, menu_xml.getBytesTotal() will return
undefined - it's OK.
You can either set interval or onEnterFrame function to check the ned
of parsing and then delete/clear onEnterFrame/interval.
Also, check spelling of mymenuxml (quotes, ";" etc)
Also, I'd suggest to use just:
//=== code
mymenuxml = "your xml string";
menu_xml = new XML(mymenuxml);
menu_xml.ignoreWhite = true;

Re: [Flashcoders] Cannot stop loaded movie
What Marc said, plus use onLoadInit instead of onLoadComplete. From the
help docs:
"It's important to understand the difference between
MovieClipLoader.onLoadComplete and MovieClipLoader.onLoadInit. The
onLoadComplete event is called after the SWF, JPEG, GIF, or PNG file
loads, but before the application is initialized. At this point, it is
impossible to access the loaded movie clip's methods and properties, and
therefore you cannot call a function, move to a specific frame, and so
on. In most situations, it's better to use the onLoadInit event instead,
which is called after the content is loaded and fully initialized."

If I run the SWF inside the standalone player (or inside a browser

keeps looping and there seems to be no way to stop it.
I cannot make sense of this. I've tried searching through the list,

Re: [Flashcoders] loading XML as string via parseXml: how to avoid"undefined"? (onParseComplete??!)
xml.parseXML is not an asynchronous event like xml.load, so like
jesse said, you have no need of a loader,
so, after you call parseXML, you can start using the xml object to
read your data on the next line.
On Mar 17, 2006, at 8:37 PM, JesterXL wrote:

You aren't downloading anything. You are building the XML object
by hand in
Flash. Therefore, since you never loaded anything, you never
started a
download. Since you never started a download, you'll never get a
valid
result from getBytesTotal/getBytesLoaded, nor do you need to.

I'm attempting to manually load an XML object via a string. I
appear to be
successfully completing this process: my XML is well-formed, and
myxmlobject.toString() returns a result, as do attempts to traverse
the
attributes and nodes.
What isn't working is the XML object itself when I attempt to use
it to
build a kirupa.com-style XML menu, or when I attempt to run the
.getBytesTotal() method on the object. My menuing and code works
just fine
when I load the same XML from an external file and set up an onLoad
event,
but it breaks when I use the XML as a string and attempt parseXml.
The code
copied below returns "undefined" on the trace.
What I think I may be running into is Flash attempting to use the
object
before it is parsed and loaded into memory, and I need the
equivalent of
"onParseComplete". Or maybe it's something else. Can anyone help on
this
puzzling problem?
Thanks in advance for any assistance you can offer.

To add to the weirdness: this problem only presents itself if I create
the project in Flash 8, so I wonder whether I'm hitting my head against
the new security model. Again, any help would be much appreciated.

This code, placed in the actions panel of the root, works with the

instance of a movie clip symbol (with no code) placed on the stage. The
loaded movie is just a collection of frames, with no actions associated
to it.
The really bizarre thing is that this works just fine if I run the code
from inside Flash: the movie loads and then it jumps to frame 10, where
it stops.
If I run the SWF inside the standalone player (or inside a browser
plugin on Windows, but not on a Mac), the external movie loads but keeps
looping and there seems to be no way to stop it.
I cannot make sense of this. I've tried searching through the list, but
either this is so obviously wrong that nobody ever had the problem, or I
just don't know what to search for :)
I'd appreciate any pointers!

Re: [Flashcoders] loading XML as string via parseXml: how to avoid"undefined"? (onParseComplete??!)
getBytesTotal is only used for tracking the downloading of a large amount of
XML.
You aren't downloading anything. You are building the XML object by hand in
Flash. Therefore, since you never loaded anything, you never started a
download. Since you never started a download, you'll never get a valid
result from getBytesTotal/getBytesLoaded, nor do you need to.

Subject: [Flashcoders] loading XML as string via parseXml: how to

I'm attempting to manually load an XML object via a string. I appear to be
successfully completing this process: my XML is well-formed, and
myxmlobject.toString() returns a result, as do attempts to traverse the
attributes and nodes.
What isn't working is the XML object itself when I attempt to use it to
build a kirupa.com-style XML menu, or when I attempt to run the
.getBytesTotal() method on the object. My menuing and code works just fine
when I load the same XML from an external file and set up an onLoad event,
but it breaks when I use the XML as a string and attempt parseXml. The code
copied below returns "undefined" on the trace.
What I think I may be running into is Flash attempting to use the object
before it is parsed and loaded into memory, and I need the equivalent of
"onParseComplete". Or maybe it's something else. Can anyone help on this
puzzling problem?
Thanks in advance for any assistance you can offer.

Re: [Flashcoders] File Exists - a better way?
Ian: "There's no Flash native hack as far as I know."
You can check (and cache while you're at it) any file by using LoadVars:
var file:String = "anyFileType.exe";
var fileExists:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
fileExists.onLoad = mx.utils.Delegate.create(this, doCheck);
fileExists.load(file);
function doCheck(success:Boolean) {
if (success) trace("File "+file+" exists.");
else trace("File "+file+" does not exist.");

Re: [Flashcoders] File Exists - a better way?
I backtracked on this thread...
I guess the questions are:
1) what are you trying to load?
2) what onLoad(success:Boolean) are you using?
Are you using the XML or LoadVars?
Assuming you are using the LoadVars, a more reasonable "timeout"
approach would be something like:
// code --
function fileExists() {}
function fileDoesNotExist() {}
var timeout:Number = 1; // 10 seconds...
var app:MovieClip = this;
var lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
lv.onLoad = function(success:Boolean) {
clearInterval(app.interval);
if (!success) {
app.fileDoesNotExist();
} else {
app.fileExists();
}
};
var startTime:Number = getTimer() + timeout;
lv.load(url);
var interval:Number = setInterval(function () {
var total:Number = app.lv.getBytesTotal();
if (total > 4) {
clearInterval(app.interval);
app.fileExists();
} else {
if (getTimer() >= app.startTime) {
clearInterval(app.interval);
app.fileDoesNotExist();
}
}
}, 25);
// code --

What about the MovieClipLoader Class?

loadListener.onLoadError = function(target_mc:MovieClip,

trace(">> loadListener.onLoadError()");
trace(">> ==");
trace(">> errorCode: " + errorCode);

var mcLoader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
mcLoader.addListener(loadListener);
var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth());
mcLoader.loadClip("http://www.fakedomain.com/images/bad_hair_day.jpg";, mc);

_gloabl.fileExists = true;
_mc.loadMovie (url);

This is not tested, but should work. The only penalty is the the time you
have to wait to be sure.

I think because if the file exists, you will have to wait till the file has
loaded completely before you know about it.

It stands to reason that if onLoad fires with success==false no file was
loaded anyway, so i don't see why you'd need a separate handler for
wether success is false NOW or success is false a little later.
onLoad(success){
if(success){
//handle file load

I don't see the downside to this approach. Then again, i'm tired and

Re: [Flashcoders] Compile using an "older" version of a given class
If you have a compiled swf that imported a version of the class and it gets loaded before your swf with the new version, the new version will be ignored. Also delete your Flash cache Ron Wendy Richardson wrote: I came across this problem yesterday: I have some flash code with lots of external .as scripts.

Re: [Flashcoders] File Exists - a better way?
There's no Flash native hack as far as I know. The only obvious solution I can think of is to call a server script - for example in PHP something like: Then use LoadVars to call the script, passing in the parameter 'file' - which is a filename relative to the PHP script. Once LoadVars returns, if the 'exists' parameter is false, the file doesn't exist - and so on.

Re: [Flashcoders] File Exists - a better way?
If onload fires immediately with success==false then you know that there's no file, so why don't you wait for a reasonable interval and then if it's not fired than assume the file exists. not the best of solutions but should work.

RE: [Flashcoders] File Exists - a better way?
Do you have access to a scripting language on the server where the file resides? If you do, get that to do the check for if the file exists and interrogate that instead. Maybe.

Subject: [Flashcoders] Question for XML Style Junkies
My XML file takes the following form:
...etc. ...etc.
However, after I load it into Flash, it gets truncated to:
I am assuming the way I am using CDATA tags are throwing it off somehow.
For example, I have a CDATA tag inside an attribute value under the
Home/Panel/Panel[0]/Title attribute value and this is where it seems to
break. Is this bad form and/or causing Flash to choke? If not, what
could be causing this? If this is bad XML form, how would you
reorganize it to work in Flash?

FYI - FWIW:
I am loading the XML in a standard way:
var xmlObject = new XML();
xmlObject.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlObject.onLoad = Delegate.create(this, loadSuccess);
xmlObject.load("home.xml")
and the delegate function just moves the playhead once the file is
loaded - when I get to the frame after it's loaded, I do a trace on the
XML and see the truncation as described.

Re: [FlashCoders] remove BitmapData

I changed my code and now I keep a reference of the

There is no getDepth() method for bitmapData Objects.
What's the problem with keeping a refrence to your bitmapData Objects? I
would argue that it's better practice to refrence them anyways, and as of
now, if you do not call dispose() and just remove MovieClips with bitmapData
attached, the bitmapData, as I know it, will remain in memory.

Re: [Flashcoders] Position objects evenly around ellipse
Would anyone have a function, class, formula, idea whatever that would allow me to calculate X and Y values to place an "n" number of movie clips evenly spaced around an ellipse/oval shape? The number of clips can vary based on external data. The ellipse would also have to be calculated I suppose, but not actually drawn - the representation of it would be a separate graphic. 'evenly spaced' is a slightly ambiguous phrase. It could either mean that they are spaced with even angles (meaning that physically the clips at the 'pointy end' of the ellipse would be closer to each other) or that they are spaced with equal arc lengths, or various other metrics. I always find it easiest to think of an ellipse as a circle transformed by a stretch and rotate. So I'd do it something like this: for an ellipse with short radius (semiminor axis) a and long radius (semimajor axis) b, centred on c, pointed along the unit vector v: first place your clips evenly spaced around a unit circle: if there are N clips then place clip i at (sin(i*2*pi/N), cos(i*2*pi/N)) then stretch the positions: multiply the x-axis by a and y-axis by b: (a*sin(i*2*pi/N), b*cos(i*2*pi/N)) then rotate: move to i[2]*v+i[1]*normal(v) then translate: add c to each point.
