Hi everyone!
If you saw my last posts, I was having trouble unloading an externally loaded swf. Everything is peachy now on that score, so I’m all aflutter.
However! I have a new problem which I’m hoping you can help me with. In the same project, my externally loaded swf is a little window that can be dragged around. Within that window is a text box and five buttons. Each button loads the text box with new information via a URLLoader. Here is the code for the URLLoader:
var myURLLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
myURLLoader.load(new URLRequest(“bio.html”));
myURLLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, dataLoaded);
function dataLoaded(e:Event): void {
myTfield.htmlText= myURLLoader.data;
myTfield.scrollV = 1;
}
Okay. Now, let’s look at two buttons:
main_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, albumText);
function albumText(e:MouseEvent): void {
myURLLoader.load(new URLRequest(“bio.html”));
}
anth_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, lyricsText);
function lyricsText(e:MouseEvent): void {
myURLLoader.load(new URLRequest(“anth.html”));
}
Everything looks fine, right? And the mechanism works at runtime, BUT, there is an annoying glitch that for the life of me I cannot fathom. Sometimes, and usually after I drag the clip around a bit, I get this error:
ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.
at flash.text::TextField/set htmlText()
at bio_fla::MainTimeline/dataLoaded()
at flash.events::EventDispatcher/flash.events:EventDispatcher::dispatchEventFunction
()
at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEvent()
at flash.net::URLLoader/flash.net:URLLoader::onComplete()
Can anyone help me figure out why I’m getting this crazy error? What supplied DisplayObject is the Flash Player saying is not a child of the caller??
Thanks. I’ve attached the files for your parusal.
