Hi I have a flash app that is embedded in an html document that pulls in variables from a few javascript functions. I need these variables to be updated in flash. I have it functioning to where it checks for externalinterface’s availability and such, it’s even on a timer of 3 seconds to run the function that actually does the pulling in of the variables with a call to externalInterface.
My issue is that I need this apps info to update without having to refresh the html page it’s contained in.
ie; If I upload the js to the server and then launch the html page, then while I have it open in my browser i upload a new js file to the server with different variables, I need flash to read and bring in those variables without the need to reload the entire page. Essentially accessing the actual js file each time the externalinterface is called.
Is this possible? how? and can anyone point me in the right direction?
A friend told me that Ajax or web services is what I need, however I have no knowledge of them and would prefer to steer clear of dealing with them at this point, but if someone could point me to a tutorial or something that demonstrates exactly what i need, I’m willing to give it a shot.
Thanks in Advance these forums have never failed me!:goatee:
