What is wrong with my basic action script

Hi guys. I'm new to flash but have managed to create a
slideshow movie.
Here is my flash file.
http://www.thechallenge.net.au/FlashSlideshow.fla
I am having trouble with the get url action attached in layer
10
on (release) {
getURL("
http://www.thechallenge.net.au");
It does not open the url.
Can anyone help?

ok - there plenty of problems here. first you can't just
place code all over the place and expect it to function, it has to
be placed in the correct spot. there are also tons of changes going
on throughout the movie, and none of the items on stage have
'instance names' - a button or MC symbol must have an instance name
to be able to 'point' at it with your code. the code that operates
for that instance (like for a button click) must also be able to
'see' that instance, so your codes can't be placed before the
instance is 'on' the timeline. so with so many changes happening, i
think what you are looking for here is that if someone click on
your ad, at any time, it will go to the link correct? so what you
need is what's known as an 'invisible button' that sits on 'top' of
everything and isn't seen but responds to the click.
to make one, make a new layer called button above all other
layers jsut below the 'actions' layer, (lock all you other layers
before doing so) select the first frame, using the rectangle tool
draw a box that fills the stage size completely, color doesn't
matter. next right-click and convert the box to a button symbol
give it a name maybe 'linkBtn'. you should now have that button
spanning the entire timeline. next with the linkBtn selected, open
the properties panel, in the textfield on the left type 'linkBtn'
(no quotes). now back on the stage, double click the linkBtn, this
takes you into 'edit mode' for the symbol - grab the first keyframe
which will be the only one with anything in it, click it once, then
click and drag it to the 'last' keyframe which says 'hit' - now the
only thing showing should be in the hit frame, double click outside
the symbol to return to the stage. now you should see a 'blue tint'
over the stage - this indicates that the button is 'invisible' -
lock the layer. select the first keyframe of the actions layer
(before you begin this, remove all other codes and clear all the
keyframes in the actions layer) with the frame selected open the
actions panel and reenter the code above - but now in place of
'byButton' (which i miss typed myButton) replace it with the
instance name of the button... ... ... yes, 'linkBtn' (no quotes) -
test your file and click anywhere on the stage - you should nav to
the site.

What is wrong with CS4 and post script printers?

I just upgraded my cs2 to a cs4. It's great except it won't function with my print driver. I use LD Lanier 160c, an okay printer for non-professional grade. Every time I try to go to my printer options, I get a warning that says: "If the desired print setting is available in InDesign's Print Dialog Box, please set it there to avoid conflicts". Well, there is no duplex options or a lot of other options available in my dialog box. Does anyone know what to do so I can actually use my printer. The crazy thing is that it still allows me to go to my print options and select what I want, but it will not record anything I do in the printer options. Someone please help.
Thanks,
joboyd

You should probably get ahold of Lanier to see if there is a conflict resolution somewhere in the workflow. I have an HP Designjet 10ps printer that shipped with a standard "Office" type driver and an additional RIP software application which is Postscript 3 compatable. I often find it interesting that the printer itself is not recognized as a Postscript output device and the RIP only interprets the Postscript data and converts it to printer language. It sounds like you had success with CS2, whether you used a RIP or not. But, typically, Postscript data streams usually require a RIP to process the data. So, Lanier may have an updated driver and/or a RIP solution for CS4.
It's getting to be a real dance with recent OS software releases vs. recent CS updates vs. hardware vendor application updates and/or the lack of. As I understand it, Apple offers updated printer manufacturer drivers. However, having looked over the list at the apple.com/support site, they only update new or fairly new printers. In my case, the closest update driver would be an HP Designjet 30 or 130. This gets to be a real situation because printer software will only work in certain OS versions and neither HP or Apple support my HP Designjet 10ps. You are simply expected to trade-up and pay-up.

What is wrong with this basic line?

This line doesn't compile for me:
assert true : "y";Here is the message:
warning: as of release 1.4, assert is a keyword, and may not be used as an identifier
assert true : "y";
^
not a statement
assert true : "y";
^
';' expected
assert true : "y";
^
I am just trying to learn how to use assert. Some Java tutorial http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/lang/assert.html
makes me think my statement should work.
Thanks.

You didn't look at a single one of those items in the search, did you?
Ok, here's another link. You will have to read it for yourself though

Script debug - what's wrong with this picture?

I wrote a script a while back which shrinks and saves out images in png format. Nothing fancy. It works fine. I am happy. However yesterday, I discovered that it baulked at a certain file. Initally I thought it was a problem with the script (and that may be the case - i'm still new to scripting) but it worked with every other image I've thrown at it. Ergo it must be something wrong with the image.
Now here's the thing: I also noticed that adding a new layer underneath the existing single layer and then merging down allowed the script to work fine. So what is wrong with the inital image before it's had a new layer added and merged? Or what does adding and merging do to an image do to fix as I can't see any visual difference?
Here is the bare bones of the script:
// Set filePath and fileName to source path
filePath = "C:\\temp" + "/" + 'debugme' + '.png';
// save out the image
var pngFile = new File(filePath);
pngSaveOptions = new PNGSaveOptions();
pngSaveOptions.embedColorProfile = true;
pngSaveOptions.formatOptions = FormatOptions.STANDARDBASELINE;
pngSaveOptions.matte = MatteType.NONE;
pngSaveOptions.quality = 1;
pngSaveOptions.PNG8 = false;
pngSaveOptions.transparency = true;
activeDocument.saveAs(pngFile, pngSaveOptions, false, Extension.LOWERCASE);
I would include the two psds (one that works and the one that doesn't) only this forum doesn''t seem to allow .psd files - and saving them out in another format is the whole problem.

A quick test and this resolved the issue for me…
#target photoshop
filePath = '~/Desktop/Testing.png';
// save out the image
var pngFile = new File(filePath);
pngSaveOptions = new PNGSaveOptions();
pngSaveOptions.embedColorProfile = true;
pngSaveOptions.formatOptions = FormatOptions.STANDARDBASELINE;
pngSaveOptions.matte = MatteType.NONE;
pngSaveOptions.quality = 1;
pngSaveOptions.PNG8 = false;
pngSaveOptions.transparency = true;
clearLayerStyle();
activeDocument.saveAs(pngFile, pngSaveOptions, false, Extension.LOWERCASE);
function clearLayerStyle() {
     function cTID(s) { return app.charIDToTypeID(s); };
     function sTID(s) { return app.stringIDToTypeID(s); };
          var desc01 = new ActionDescriptor();
          var ref01 = new ActionReference();
          ref01.putEnumerated( cTID('Lyr '), cTID('Ordn'), cTID('Trgt') );
          desc01.putReference( cTID('null'), ref01 );
     executeAction( sTID('disableLayerStyle'), desc01, DialogModes.NO );

What's Wrong With This Script

A couple of years ago I was using an AppleScript file (thanks to someone else's assistance) but it no longer works.
I have an extra internal drive, that is partitioned, and used for sequential daily backups. When the computer starts up, of course all the drives mount - but I prefer that they are off the desktop until neded.
Rather than selecting the volumes and then dragging to the Trash, I found it easier to have a script run at startup which then asks if the drives should be unmounted.
Things were great - until I upgraded to Tiger.
I am hoping that someone can tell me what's wrong with the script so that I can start using it again. As you can probably tell, I don't have any experience in AppleScript. At the moment the script runs - it presents the dialogue box - and then just ends after a response, but the drives do not unmount.
The partitions on the drive are called Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Saturday
The existing script is as follows:
on run
display dialog "Unmount All Backup Drives?" buttons {"Yes", "No"} default button 1
set x to button returned of result
if x is "Yes" then tell application "Finder" to eject "Monday"
end run

This relates to another (current) thread in AppleScript discussions.
Your script works with Panther as that operating system allows INTERNAL drives to be "ejected" (and, if you eject one volume on a partitioned drive, all the volumes on that drive are ejected -- this explains why ejecting "Monday" actually ejected Monday through Friday).
With Tiger, you would find that your script works exactly as expected with EXTERNAL drives, but INTERNAL drives need a different approach.
To get behavior exactly as you had before, try this script:
--BEGINNING
display dialog "Unmount All Backup Drives?" buttons {"Yes", "No"} default button 1
set x to button returned of result
if x is "Yes" then set driveName to "Monday"
set driveInfo to do shell script "diskutil list | grep \"" & driveName & "\""
set driveID to last word of driveInfo
do shell script "diskutil unmountDisk " & driveID & ""
--END
For reasons that aren't entirely clear to me, this approach, while it works reliably, is very slow -- on my fast machine, the unmount process takes nearly 20 seconds. (Using UNIX directly in Terminal, with the same command, is very quick.) (In the AS, the delay occurs in second "do shell script.")
Another puzzle that has cropped up is described in the related thread "Applescript to Mount/Unmount a Disk . . ." (current). While the above approach works for Justin Surpless, it often prompts for a password -- unacceptable in his application. I've not seen this on my PPC (and I tried 10.4.7, which he's using); his may be an Intel Mac, if that could be the difference.

Qi,
You can try passing in -username and -password arguments. If you don't
like the idea of storing username and password in plain text in a
script, as well you shouldn't ;), you can create a user config file.

What is wrong with as3

this is not a question about 'how i do X'. is rather a 'discussion' (flame or whatever, but to defend or argue about aspects, not people) about 'what is wrong with as3' and what aspects whould be taken into consideration for updates. right now i am using as3, and since i paid for this license, i choose this tool over some alternatives and i am using it to do stuff for other people who pay me to do it, i think it can be helpful for all of us if some actions are started in the right direction. i have already posted about 'all people in adobe are dumbasses that do not know how to make a scripting tool and are messing up my work', but i was pissed at the time (i still am pissed) but i believe this is not the right aproach. instead, if this goes to the right people in adobe, we all may get something in the future, like better and easier todo apps and web presentations.
pre: not only about the as3 specification, but COMPLY with the specification that you set. for example, some time ago there were problems with matrix transforms. this was corrected later with a patch. but this means it is not even doing what is is supposed to do
1. scriptable masks and movement, sprites and child sprites: there is a sprite with a mask, the mask is a shape drawn via script, something like
somemask=new shape();
somemask.graphics.beginfill();
(...etc)
somesprite.mask=somemask;
just like that. now add some child sprites to 'somesprite', and make 'somesprite' move, scale and rotate. there you will have something like a kaleidoscope, but not what you expected to do with your script. as the child sprites move in the parent mask, you will see that the child sprites appear or dissapear kind of randomly, and if the child sprites are textfields, it may be that the text is rendered outside the mask, or partially rendered outside the mask (as in only part of the text), rendered with the wrongf rotation or in the wrong place. some child sprites are clipped correctly, some dissapear totally when only a part should dissapear (clipped) etc.
way around: have not tried it yet, but i have the impression that bitmaps have different criteria for clipping, so i am thinking of trying this: appli an empty filter (a filter with params so it does not have any effect on the sprite or in the textfield) so the sprite is rendered as bitmap before doing anything else with it. as i said, i have not done it yet, but it may be a way around this problem, to avoid all this inconsistency with clipping
1-b. inconsistency between hierarchy and coordinates, specially masks: you apply a mask to a sprite, yet the sprite has a set of coordinates (so 'x' in the sprite means an x relative to its container), yet the mask applied to the very same sprite, as another reference as reference for coordinates (like the stage)
2. painting via script: in any other languaje, in any other situation, something like:
beginFill(params);
(...stuff 1)
endFill();
beginFill(params);
(...stuff 2)
endFill();
(...etc)
means: render region of block 1, then render region of block 2 etc, and no matter what, it should be consistent, since there is noplace for ambiguity. if you read it, you may think what that means, even if you dont run it you may have an idea of the picture you want to draw, but not with as3. as3 somehow manages to screw something that simple, and mixes all the blocks, and somehow uses the boundaries of one block as boundaries for other block. is like all blocks are dumped into whatever, and then uses all lines defined into it as boundaries for a unique block. it changes all boundaries and generates inconsistency between what is shown and redraw regions of the resulting picture, like lines that go to the end of the screen and then dont go away in the next frames, even tough the beginfill endfill block should prevent it
3. event flow: i dont know what was the policy behind as3 event flow design. it is in no way similar or an extension to previous event flow, neither with any event flow in any other plattform. i dont know how most people start with as3; in my case, i unpacked, installed and when i tried to do something with what i already knew i could not, so i started reading the as3 docs, and since is like 800 pages long, i just read the basics and the rest i would 'wing it'. in the part of the event flow, there was something about bubbling and stuff, it was not clear at all and when i tried to do what is was said in the documentation (like preventing events to 'bubble', as is called in the documentation), i could not see any effect but i could see it was a mess. flash is not the only thing out there to work with pictures or to work with mouse events, but is the only one that deals with things like 'target' and 'currentTarget'. my first experience on needing this was when i was dealing with my own event handlers (so the only thing that had control over mouse was the stage, and i would admin everything via script). there were events generated everywhere, the stage got events that were not genrated directly over the stage, but got there not with stage coordinates but the coordinates relative to the sprite that generated the event. so if i hover the mopuse over the stage, and the stage has some things on it how does it work? i get multiple event calls, like it was hovering multiple times over the stage in a single frame, but in each call with different coordinates? and what if i set all child sprites as mouseenabled=false or compare like 'if (event.target != event.currenttarget)', what if i move the mouse over a child, does it prevent the move mouse event at all? or does it filter only the event call with only stage coordinates? in my case, every time i move over another clip (with mouseenabled = true), the stage gets it as 'mouse up', even tough there was never a mouse release, what the hell? do even the people at adobe know how to handle events with their own tool when they require it? why does an event 'bubble' when i have not specifically tell it to do it? mi thought is that this event flow was very poorly conceived, and tough the intention may have been that there were different cases and it shopuld cover all cases, they actually introduced new problems that were not present in traditional ways to handle it, and it is neither the easier way to handle things, and this way, a very simple problem turns into a very ugly thing because it must handle things that were not neccesary to handle, or were implicit in other situations.
4. legacy: since as3, all interaction is different, and if you want to do things in the new plattform, using the new features, what you already knew just goes to the garbage can. when a new tool arrives, it should be an extension to previous tools (which is a reason to update instead of just buying a new tool from a different vendor). if everything i had or knew just means nothing from now on, then i can not say 'i know flash script', and my previous knowledge gives me no advantage when aproaching the new version. as3 is a new aproach that requires doc reading and stuff, even if you knew something about previous as specifications or other oo languajes. if you decide to change things from now on, like the things mentioned in this post, instead of just throwing away everything the users alerady knew about the tool, do like in java releases, they mark some things as 'deprecated', they keep working as they should, give a warning, but also a message saying this feature is deprecated, we suggest you use this library instead.
5. lack of previous functionality: if you 'update' something, it meand all previos functionality is still there (probably improved, but not with bugs if it was working fine), plus something else. now it seems backwards, there are some things that could be done in previous versions but not in this one, like 'duplicatemovieclip'
6. inconsistency with scripting/programming paradigms: (ok, fancy work, but fits perfectly here): as3 proposed ways to handle things, but the people who designed it got 'too creative', and they did something that is not consistent neither with previous versions of as or with other languajes. the documentations is full of things like 'it looks like x languaje or languaje family, but instead of using XXX word, you must use YYY'. great, what is this? namespaces 'work like', but 'differently' for example from java, .net, .c. its got the idea that a namespace means a grouped functionality but there are rules about where should be placed the file (ok, java has this also, .net takes care of it automatically if all files are registered in the project), but what you got is a mess that 'if you know other languajes you got the general idea, but nonetheless, even if you knew this or previosu versions of as, you still have to read whatever we decided arbitrarily just to be different'. namespaces, event handling, vars definition which is not like previous scripting neither like fully typed languajes.. is just a mess.
7. lack of scripting and graphics integration: unlike flash and adobe tools that just got on the graphics side leaving all the scripting integratuion apart, most tools from other vendors integrate very well interacton with what is on the screen. the script editor: very poor. autocompletion? a drop down list that does not heklp at all, appears in the wrong places, and when you need it to go, it does not go (so if i want to move away from the uncalled drop down list, i have to click somewhere else, making developement slowewr instead of helping, so the drop down list does not capture all events when i dont want to). in other ides you double click somewhere and it will go to the part of code relevant to that event or whatever. for example microsoft tools, ok i am antimicrosoft, and one of the reasons was that when windows 95 got to market proposing itself as the ONLY pc os you could use if you wanted to keep useing the apps you already had, it was a lousy product full of flaws but you had to keep using it because you had no choice. what is so different from what is happening with flash just now? yet the ide of c# is awesome, works very well and seems reliable.
adobe people: not all user are designers that just make pretty pictures. if it is not intended for scripting then why is it there. and if there are corrections to be done, they should patch all versions, not only the last one. previous version users also paid for their versions.

Well, there is no point in arguing.
I personally believe AS3 does exactly what it promises to do within limits (read: reasonable limits) of ECMA type of language. And sometimes it doesn’t do what we expect it to for it cannot possibly emulate everyone’s thinking process. The task, I guess, is to learn to think in terms of AS3 – not to try to make AS3 think like us. No language covers all the grounds. And no, it is not Java - with no negative or positive connotation. It is what it is. Period. I just hope that AS5 will be more Java like.
You are right about the fact that it is not necessary to know all the aspects of language in order to perform the majority of tasks. But it is paramount to have a clear idea about such fundamental concepts as display list model and events. For instance, depth swap has no meaning in terms of AS3 because display list object stacking is controlled automatically and there is no need for all these jumping through hoops one has to perform in order to control depth in AS2. There no more gaps in depths and one always know where to find things.
Similarly, there is no point in having duplicateMovieClip method. More conventional OOP ways of object instantiation accomplishes just that and much more. Just because OOP object instantiation needs to be learned doesn’t mean past hacks have place in modern times. duplicateMovieClip is a horse carriage standing next to SUV. What one should choose to travel?
Events are implemented to the tee in the context of ECMA specifications. I consider Events model as very solid, it works great (exactly as expected) and never failed me. True, it takes time to get used to it. But what doesn’t?
By the way, speaking about events, contrary to believe in Adobe’s inconsideration to their following. Events are implemented with weakly reference set to false although it would be better to have it set to true. I think this is because there are smart and considerate people out there who knew how difficult it would be for programming novices to deal with lost listeners.
I think AS3 is million times better than AS2. And one of the reasons it came out this way is that Adobe made a very brave and wise decision to break totally loose from AS2’s inherent crap. They have created a totally new and very solid language. If they had tried to make it backward compatible – it would be a huge screw up, similar to how our friends at Microsoft are prostituting VB and VBA – extremely irritating approach IMHO.
Also, Flash legacy issues shouldn’t be overlooked. Flash did not start as a platform for programmers. Entire timeline concept in many ways is not compatible with the best OOP practices and advancements. I think for anyone who is used to writing classes the very fact of coding on timeline sounds awkward. It feels like a hack (and AS2 IS a pile of hacks) – the same things can be nicely packaged into classes and scale indefinitely. As such I wouldn’t expect Adobe to waste time on hacking timeline concept issues by making smarter editor. They have made a new one – FlexBuilder – instead. Serious programmers realize very soon that Flash IDE is not for developing industrial strength applications anyway. So, why bother with channeling great minds into polishing path to the dead end?
I would like to state that all this is coming form a person who knew Flash when there was no AS at all. And I applaud every new generation of this wonderful tool.
I believe Adobe does a great job making transition from timeline paradigm to total OOP venue as smooth as possible. And no, they don’t leave their devoted followers behind contrary to many claims. They are working on making developing Flash applications as easy as possible for people of all walks. Welcome Catalyst!
Of course there is not enough information about AS3 capabilities and features. But, on the other hand, I don’t know any area of human kind activities that does.

Flash Newbie needs help with Movie Clips/Action Scripting

Hi -
I'm having a problem with my movie clips playing
simultaneously and cannot, for the life of me, figure out what I
have done wrong. I'm new to flash, so I may have set something up
incorrectly, but here's what I have so far:
11 layers, total: 1 layer with 10 control buttons, each
button with the following actionscript:
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay(85);
Where the number changes in relation to which keyframe the
next movie is on.
I have 10 movies, total, but they are only movie clips,
essentially photo slide shows with audio, made all in the library.
The problem happens when I click on the second or third
button. Not only does the movie that I have selected begin to play,
but all of the previous clips do as well, so it all sounds quite
garbled. I don't know what I am missing in the action script, as my
Action Layer has a stop command on it at each keyframe where there
is a new clip to play.
I have tried to add a stopAllSounds command, but I'm afraid
that doesn't do anything because it is not a "sound file" per se,
playing in the timeline.
I'm at the end of my rope and really need some help in
figuring this one out. My project is hanging in the balance on
this, as I have scripted everything else correctly and it runs
beautifully.
Please help!
Thanks,
Caroline

Each layer has a blank keyframe before and after each
movieclip. Each movie clip is at a different frame. Even with the
blank keyframes added, the second video starts to play and then the
first video begins to play. Same happens if I click on the third
button. Third plays, and starts 1st and 2nd shortly thereafter. Is
there an action script I can put in that will tell the timeline
that, when a button is clicked, no matter where the movieclip is,
it will stop and start the newly selected movieclip?

Hi, everyone:

I always got an error like;

but I can't find anything wrong, who can tell me why?

For starters, an insert select does not have a values clause.

...and why are you doing a UNION on the exact same two queries?

Hi,
thank you for your answer, but the problem is, if I deleted "values" as you pointed out, and then execute it again, I got error like "ERROR at line 3:
ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel", and I was then disconnected with server, I have to relogin SQLplus, and do everything from beganing.
so what 's wrong caused disconnection, I can't find any triggers related. it is so wired?
I wonder if anyone can help me about this.
thank you very much

Hi,
acturlly what I do is debugging a previous developer's scipt for data loading, this script was called by Cron work, but it never can be successfully executed.
I think he use union for eliminating duplications of rows, I just guess.
thank you

Scratch the VALUES keyword then make sure that the select list matches the column list in number and type.
1 insert into marktest
2 (fld1, fld2, fld3, fld4, fld5)
3* select * from marktest
UT1 > /
16 rows created.

try this - just paste the code and give me the error- i mean past the entire error as it is if error occurs
INSERT INTO xhealthcall_script_data
(xhc_call_ended, xhc_switch_port, xhc_script_id,
xhc_fax_specified)
SELECT TO_DATE (hh_end_date || ' ' || hh_end_time, 'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS'),
hh_switchport, hh_script, 'N'
FROM tmp_healthhit_load
WHERE hh_script != 'BROCHURE'
UNION
SELECT TO_DATE (hh_end_date || ' ' || hh_end_time, 'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS'),
hh_switchport, hh_script, 'N'
FROM tmp_healthhit_load
WHERE hh_script != 'BROCHURE';

Hi, Jagan:
thank you very much for your answer.
but when I execute it, I still can get error like:
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel
so wired, do you have any ideas?
thank you very much

And this one,
Aother question about SQL?
I thought I already told him to deal with
ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel
problem first.
There's nothing wrong (syntax wise) with the query. (of course when no "value" in the insert)

You email address has been removed from your post.
You wouldn't want bad people to send you spam messages for the rest of your life, eh?
Moderator Advice:
If this is the same E2900 that you have mentioned in every one of your other forum posts, then it would seem you need to contact Technical Support and open a proper support request. These forums are NOT techsupport and that system seems so poorly configured that it needs deep analysis. Such investigation cannot be done by using an online forum.
The immediate solution is to log on to the SC of that box and power it down, then boot it back up. At least it will be running after that.

What's wrong with my syntax?

I'm getting an error with this. What's wrong with my syntax?
Error: Scene 1, Layer 'actions', Frame 1, Line 21 1084: Syntax error: expecting rightparen before semicolon.
// Line 21
holder.load(new URLRequest("Interactive_StrategyMap.swf" + "?random=" + Math.random();));

Hi Ned,
I'm trying to force my preloader to load the .swf every time. I do not want it stored in cache (because I'm trying to solve the issue where the dynamic text doesn't load on refresh)
So, I've added this math.random to the end of the string... but now the preloader .swf apparently can't see the .swf I want it to load because the path is Interactive_StrategyMap.swf?random=123 instead of Interactive_StrategyMap.swf
The error I get is:
completeHandler: Interactive_StrategyMap.swf?random=123
Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL Not Found.
My full code is:
//THIS IS THE PRELOADER CONTAINER THAT LOADS THE INTERACTIVE
//STRATEGY MAP (Interactive_StrategyMap.swf).
// CREATE A NEW LOADER OBJECT TO HOLD THE LOADED CONTENT
var holder:Loader = new Loader();
var myString:String = "Interactive_StrategyMap.swf" + "?random=123" + Math.random();
addChild(holder);
// CREATE EVENT HANDLERS TO TRACK THE LOADING PROGRESS
// AND TO TRACK THE COMPLETION OF THE LOADED CONTENT
holder.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, onLoading);
holder.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete);
function onComplete(e:Event):void {
this.loadingClip.visible = false;
function onLoading(e:ProgressEvent):void {
var pcent:Number = e.target.bytesLoaded / e.target.bytesTotal * 100;
loadingClip.loadingText.text = int(pcent) + "%";
// LOAD THE EXTERNAL CONTENT
holder.load(new URLRequest(myString));
trace("completeHandler: " + myString);

What is wrong with my basic action script
