RE: [Flashcoders] Accessing FlashVars
Hi Kerry,
Digging a few years back, I unearthed some code.
Here's the html:
object data=main.swf id=main
type=application/x-shockwave-flash
width=980
height=600
param name=movie value=main.swf /
param name=menu value=false /
param name=quality value=best /
param name=bgcolor value=#ff /
param name=flashVersion value=9 /
param name=flashVars value=product=test/
/object
And this is from the Main Class constructor:
product = root.loaderInfo.parameters.product;
For the life of me I can't remember why I used root in a Main constructor
(copy-pasta from another class or maybe the movie was loaded by another?),
but it worked.
Maybe you could try this combo with a bare-bones test movie.
(Note: This wasn't done in FlashBuilder, though - Flash IDE compiler with
FlashDevelop for code editing)

That's one way of doing it, but the embed tag has been deprecated. Well,
maybe not officially deprecated, but it's considered obsolete.
I've done some more digging, and it may not even be related to the
FlashVars. There are some other things in the HTML that aren't working, so
there may be a deeper, or prior, problem.
Thanks, Karl.

Re: [Flashcoders] Accessing FlashVars
Kerry, See if you can find the stage from any stage-member instance and get its loaderinfo parameters. Otherwise, you could test with the barest-bone HTML code possible to see if the embedding code is the culprit.Google flash sate for the simplest object code, losing the classids and conditionals. I can't copy/paste code or test any of the theories right now, because I'm nowhere near an actual computer, but I'll do it in the morning if you're still stuck (maybe best to do something else for a while). Actually, why am I still awake? It's 2 am! Karina On 1 May 2012, at 01:00, Kerry Thompson al...@cyberiantiger.biz wrote: Thanks, Karina and Jason. Jason, I've traced out the url, and it's not in that. For the time being, I'm running locally, and the URL just points to the swf. Karina, I've tried it the way you suggest, with no luck. I've looked at loaderInfo.parameters in the debugger, in the constructor, and parameters is an object, but it has no properties. It should have at least one parameter--I'm declaring 5 parameters in the HTML, but it's showing none of them. I'm wondering if the problem has to do with the object's parameters, and not specifically FlashVars. Cordially, Kerry Thompson On Mon, Apr 30, 2012 at 7:27 PM, Karina Steffens kar...@neo-archaic.netwrote: Hey Kerry, I think it's because you assigned the event to loaderinfo - not the Main class instance, and then you're asking for the loaderinfo's loaderinfo, when it's the Main's loaderinfo that you need. Also I don't think you need any event at all. You should be able to access the flashvars from the Main function's constructor (loaderinfo.parameters) Cheers, Karina On 30 Apr 2012, at 23:46, Kerry Thompson al...@cyberiantiger.biz wrote: Flash Builder 4 AS3 project, Windows 7, Firefox 12.0.

Re: [Flashcoders] Accessing FlashVars
That's one way of doing it, but the embed tag has been deprecated. Well,
maybe not officially deprecated, but it's considered obsolete.
I've done some more digging, and it may not even be related to the
FlashVars. There are some other things in the HTML that aren't working, so
there may be a deeper, or prior, problem.
Thanks, Karl.

var flashVars:Object = new Object;
..and your just missing,

Re: [Flashcoders] Accessing FlashVars
Oh, yeah sry. Just showing the difference with the object and embed.
There still are AS2 devs out there... :P
But more so, I was also showing that the name=FlashVars is in quotes
for the object tag.
Best,
Karl

That's one way of doing it, but the embed tag has been deprecated.
Well,
maybe not officially deprecated, but it's considered obsolete.
I've done some more digging, and it may not even be related to the
FlashVars. There are some other things in the HTML that aren't
working, so
there may be a deeper, or prior, problem.
Thanks, Karl.
Cordially,

I can't access the FlashVars in the HTML file. I've been working
on this
all day, and it's driving me crazy (crazier). Do you see anything
in the
following code?
In the constructor of my default AS3 file, I have this:
this.loaderInfo.**addEventListener(Event.**COMPLETE, init);
and in the init() function:
var flashVars:Object;
flashVars = this.loaderInfo.parameters;
When I look at it in the debugger, flashVars is an object, but it
has no
parameters. The relevant HTML is pretty straightforward:
object classid=clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-
**11cf-96B8-44455354
width=100% height=100% id=RMK_Beta
param name=movie value=RMK_Beta.swf /
param name=FlashVars value=appUrl=test /
param name=quality value=high /
param name=bgcolor value=#ff /
param name=allowScriptAccess value=sameDomain /
param name=allowFullScreen value=true /
!--[if !IE]--
object type=application/x-shockwave-**flash
data=RMK_Beta.swf width=100% height=100%
param name=FlashVars value=appUrl=test

param name=quality value=high /
