Run Child Function From Swf Loaded To Image Tag Options

[tfcenturion]

Hi Everyone,

Yes another problem to resolve.


This time what im trying to do is run a function from a swf file that has been loaded into a imge tag..

mxBody is the <mx:Image> tag.

mxBody.source = "images/avatar.swf";

the function id like to run would be colour.

So im thinking it would be something like mxBody.source.colour(); but this gives me an error.

Anyone able to help on this issue.

Paul..

Hi all,

I, with help from another forum, was able to resolve this issue too.

OK, heres how i did it.

The Child SWF had to have a document .as attached to it and the actionscript placed in there, it was so the parent would see the class bit probs.

then in me Flex App i had

CODE

mxBody.source = "images/avatar.swf";
mxBody.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, swfLoaded);

and yes, swfLoader would have worked here too.


and the swfLoaded Function was

CODE

private function swfLoaded(e:Event):void
{
    // SWF file has completed loading, Run functions from it. //
    Object( e.target.content ).colourSkin( 0xFF0000 );
}

Hope this help others..
