Hey guys, been polking around this for awhile.
i’ve got this mc component i’ve created and reuse on some sites i’ve made. It’s a real simple shoutbox that grabs info from a database using a php script.
What i’d like to do is have this component refresh every 200 frames, which means, grab most current msgs and post them in the database.
so for example, i have a movieclip called MC1. there’s a function in MC1 that goes like :
grabdata = function() {}; this basically calls the php scripts, loads the info, and so on.
i wanna call this function from the root or even a parent MC. How do i go about doing this??
thanks guys.
I have considered using prototypes or a class, but i dont think it’s really necessary for something that seems basic enough.
