loop this how the F....

[Psyme]

how do i loop this mess after it finishes . it also contains a looping flv video plus a song .

And would be nice if some genius out there could tell me to boil all this ****e down - but first of all i like to know how to loop it - loop it All ?

best regards psyme

Now, just to be clear it sounds like you want to build a much more modular function that will handle the functionality in order? The below is a bit of a mess, I would write a funtion and pass in the elements you want to modify when you call it...

and to write a loop, you do the following



ActionScript Code:

var noOfLoops:int = 20; // number of times to run the loop
for (var i:int = 0; i < 20; i++)
{

trace (i); // will output 0 - 19
}

ty so much for your reply - "I would write a funtion and pass in the elements you want to modify when you call it..." <---- Got to look into that

I'm making a banner for a film company where I work - they promote their films on 8 different sites (in my banner) - b4 I did more then one frame movies - now i keep to one frame. so till I get a hang of the new coding style it is messy.

well... the looping it say 20 times ? - I like it to be infinty since its on a site - how do i do that ?

thankful for your reply already - I'm not hoping I'm sqeezing the lemon too much X)

[Psyme]

erm... ****e - i cant get it to work . after the banner finishes It just finishes... any idea ?

There are numerous violations of AS3 best practices and naming conventions in your script.
(these are probably not causing errors per se, but they do make your script far more difficult to evaluate)
for example:
var AWARD1:award1 = new award1;

should probably be something more like:
var a1:Award1 = new Award1;

You are using "setInterval" and "clearInterval" in your AS3 script.
This has been replaced with the Timer class.

The function "loop" is called in the following eventlistener, but the function does not exist.
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, loop, false, 0, true);

The cascading functions nested in "setTweenaw()" seems like it would be potentially problematic.
My first impression is that you are attempting to simulate a switch statement or something to that effect.

Overall, I think your problem is mostly the apparent commingling of AS2 and AS3 methods.
Also, change the naming convention to conform to AS3 best practices; it'll be far easier for others to read the script.
A few examples:
STATIC_CONSTANT is all caps.
Classes are capitalized.
instanceNames and variables usually begin with lowercase alpha character.

Looping the script is as simple as using a recursive function call (function calling itself), but I think you need to simplify the script first.

[Psyme]

ty for your advices - its really appriciated - though it dosen't get me closer right now and here - to get the dang actionscript to loop :( - and since the deadline is soon I'm desperate for a solution.
