    string stored in shared object on media server

    i'm new to media server, so it's just a simple noob question. i'd like store a string in a persistant shared object using media server. i don't really know what the limitations of media server are, but it sounds like it should be quite simple. i guess i'm looking for something like: ////on...

    Javascript "listener"

    i usually make a spare movieclip (in the shape of a 'c' for code) and place it off the top left of the stage. in there i can place things that need to control the movie as whole, and need to do work on every frame UNTESTED onClipEvent(load) { var oldVar:Number = _root.jSVar; }...

    AS2 to Rotate a Wheel?

    you can move the registration point with the free transform tool (press Q), or go into the movie clip, and just shift everything over slightly.

    automatic country (or similar) detection

    toggling between two button states in actioscript?

    put the two images on different frames in the same movieclip, and make the button code do this: on(press) { if(images_mc._currentframe == 1) { images_mc.gotoAndStop(2); } else { images_mc.gotoAndStop(1); } } if you don't like using frame number, use a boolean to record what picture is showing.

    if (Key.isDown(65)). No error but not working. Any help

    you wouldn't normally use Key.isDown inside onClipEvent(load), that means 'is the key being held down as it loads?'. perhaps you mean onClipEvent(enterFrame).

    Get Images from a directory

    you can't read the contents of a folder with actionscript, the swf doesn't run on the server, it runs on the client machine. i suggest you create a web service, or other server app, that returns list of the relevent files. if you create something that returns text that looks like xml (.net web...

    load a .swf into level 2 at a specific x and y point?

    load it into a movieclip, like you would a jpeg, then move the movieclip to the correct position. nb - loadMovie, loadMovieNum and layers in general are out-dataed now. they still work, but there are better ways of doing all these things

    Generator alternative(s)

    now that generator isn't supported, what else can i use to make a gif dynamicly server side? i heard flash remoting can do it, but i can't find any details on this on the macromedia website.

    XmlNode attribute - probably quite an easy one this

    i just found another solution a before lunch (which just finnished a few minutes ago in my country), but frankly if your solution works (it looks good), then i'd rather use that, so probably will next time. i ended up using XmlTextReader, and basicly coming up with a whole new solution (which i...
