i wasn't using loadvars with xml...i need to get some stuff out of xml and hten send it to the server using loadVars.....ie get a form variable name from xml......but that's okay...i figured out that solution anyways...is there any other way to submit data to servers using forms other than using...

Hi, I'm passing in the name of a variable through xml.And that variable will be used with loadVars to pass stuff to the server. Is there any way in which I can get the name from xml and use that directly? This is what I mean. xml <var name=&quot;cat&quot; /> flash variable =...

thanks bill.

i followed the exact instructions and it doesn't seem to work. I created a movieclip. did a movieclip.load(url);(which didn't work..then i did a load movie and that actually went into the as file) and then wrote the onload and onloading eventhandlers ( that didn't get called).....but it doesn't...

hey Bill, I'm unable to go to the URL. btw, do you want me to toss whatever I wrote in the on enter frame(see your 3rd reply) into the on load method? Thanks.

I'm still a little unsure...... So I want a few hidden fields and on clicking something I'd like set a fewe of hte members and submit the form to a server. Any simple sample solns please....

sure. I'd like to take a look. I didn't know some of the classes could be extended in flash. Even if I don't use it I'll atleast learn something cool. Thanks for all your help .

Hi, I was wondering if forms were possible like in javascript. IF they could be done entirely from the actionscript side and if they could be submitted in a method similar to form.submit(); or something like that all from actionscript....if so could someone type up something really simple...

Also, if i remove the delete statement, it works. But the thing is onEnterFrame gets called over and over and over again. Is there any way to delete it at a later time? BTW, do you have any articles on Flash's garbage collection/ memory management Thanks

Great Thanks Bill.... But there is yet anotehr problem :-( So i tried doing this for N images. SO I had a loop within the onEnterFrame created an onRelease for all the image buttons. But what happended was that the results were really sporadic. Sometiems the images were clickable, sometimes one...

Thanks...that makes sense....But how then can I load a picture using loadMovie and make it clickable?

Hi, I'm trying to create a button dynamically. I'm trying to use a createEmptyMovieClip method to create a &quot;movie clip&quot; and then giving it an onRelease event handler. But this doesn't seem to work. But when i make a movie, add it to the library and then attach it through...

i got this example but i wnat the behaviour to be reversed. where the function is called in the flash side, but defined in the xml side.......does that make sense? Thanks for the help so far.

thanks, but you explain that a bit more...i don't think i completely follow you.

nope...what i was asking was more like. <page> <func> foobar(){ trace(&quot;foobar&quot;); } </func> </page> then in flash bar = page.childNode.nodeValue; and then using bar all over the place to print foobar.

This is prolly not possible in flash, but I thought i'd ask just for shits and giggles. Would it be possible to write a callback in flash, where the funtion is defined in xml and is assigned to a variable when read into flash, while that variable acts as a place holder in flash. So say i have a...

Hi, I have a movie clip which essentially contains an image. And each time someone rolls over the image I'd like to replace that image with another image in the same spot. So I tried making the image a movie clip and on rollover I removedMovieClip and then I attached the new movie. The only...

Bill, But the images don't have a linkage name. Should I go through and convert each image into a movie with only that image and then do this? Thanks,

Hi, I am trying to make a menu with thumbnails and if you click on the thumbnails then the corresponding image shows up on the screen. All the images are loaded in the library. I just don't know what command I need to use to tell flash to display the image i want in the screen and remove the...

I guess I should add that most of the work is done through action scripts. That is I have a mc which has one frame and frame 2 has a goToAndPlay(1). And the _root time line doesn't have much stuff to do..it's just a little animation created by repetition. Thanks.
