[Flashcoders] Reloading Dynamic Text

2008-04-19 Thread Scott Wilhelm (HireAWebGeek.com)
Hello:

 

I'm trying to update a dynamic text field that is being loaded with
variables brought in from a php file loaded in within a setinterval
function...for some reason though, it will not update the text field, even
though I have the it in the function...I'm, using AS2...

 

This is the script I have so far:  

 

setInterval(updatescoreboard(), 1000, ); 

 

function updatescoreboard() { 

loadVariablesNum(live_flash.php?mid=+mid, 0, GET); 

_level0.t1s.text = t1s; 

}

 

Any ideas/suggestions to get this to work?

 

Thanks,

 

Scott

you may need to include a random digit to prevent caching especially  
if mid is the same value each time the function attempts to load the  
php page.


var rand:Number = Math.floor(Math.random() * 100)
loadVariablesNum(live_flash.php?mid=+mid+r=+rand, 0, GET);

RE: [Flashcoders] Reloading Dynamic Text

2008-04-19 Thread Scott Wilhelm (HireAWebGeek.com)
I'm starting to get somewhere.  The problem I'm running into is that the
script will reload so fast for a while, and then it seems to timeout.

Here's my code.  Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?  

~~
rand = Math.floor(Math.random() * 100);
fl_url = live_flash.php?mid=+mid+r=+rand;

time = 1;
counter = setInterval(reloadPHP(), time, ); 

function reloadPHP(){ 
clearInterval(counter); 
sendAndLoad(fl_url,GET);
loadVariables(fl_url, _root); 
counter = setInterval(reloadPHP(), time); 
}
~~ 

Thanks!

Scott

The variable  textbox are both named t1s.  The value of t1s is a number.
You can see it at
http://www.thextremepaintballleague.com/live_beta/live.php?mid=434 (it's the
team on the left's score).

What does the variable t1s look like?

I notice that the text box is also called t1s.

somehow i don't think your sendAndLoad is correct. does the value for  
mid change at all when the interval is reached?
until then, this code should be able to update the textfield as the  
output from the php changes.



function reloadPHP() {
 loadVariables(fl_url, _root);
}

rand = Math.floor(Math.random() * 100);
fl_url = live_flash.php?mid=+mid+r=+rand;

// set the intervals for calling the php page
counter = setInterval(reloadPHP, 1);

// continuous loop to update the textfield from the _root value
this.onEnterFrame = function():Void {
  _level0.t1s.text = t1s;
}
