ActionSpeak™ Object Reference:  ActionScript API

Allows ActionScript to call .NET code via a postback.

Fires an ASP.NET ActionScriptEvent in the ASPNetFlash Object. This Event is created by double clicking on the ASPNetFlash control in Design View, or by adding it using the event editor (lightning symbol) in the Properties Panel.

The commandName and argument strings are passed from ActionScript to the .NET event.

ActionScript XML object containing all of the data from the ASPNetFlash WebControl's DataSource.

If the ASPNetFlash WebControl's DataSource is an SQL or Access database, the DataBinding is available to ActionScript as a RecordSet object.

The RecordSet is accessed using ActionSpeak.Recordset.Records[index][fieldName]

The field names are listed in the array ActionSpeak.Recordset.Fields

Executes any JavaScript expression. This can include function calls, function declarations, getting variables and setting variables.

The return values of the expression are passed back into ActionScript.

This property sets a target ASPNetFlash WebControl to be remote controlled. The value should be set to match the runtime id property (ClientId) of the target ASPNetFlash WebControl e.g. "Flash1"

This property must be set before any other ActionSpeak.Remote functions can be called.

Calls any function in Target movie clip. The first parameter is the function name and path.

Any number of further arguments can be appended to add arguments to the function call.

e.g.:ActionSpeak.Remote.CallFlashFunction("_root.gotoAndStop",1)

Sets the value of any variable or property in the target Flash Movie.

e.g.: ActionSpeak.Remote.SetFlashVariable ("_root.text", "Hello World")

Returns the value of any variable or property in the target Flash Movie.

e.g.: var retVal = ActionSpeak.Remote.GetFlashVariable ("_root.text");

Sets the value of an form field on the ASPX web page. Typically this such as a TextBox or HiddenField.

The id attribute should match the ClientId (runtime id property) of the control.

Sets or creates a named cookie and stores data there for later use.

This data is then available site-wide, and persists on return visits.

Causes the Flash Movie to float above other objects on the web page in a movable, transparent layer. The object will be moved to the top of the HTML page - over other HTML and Flash content.

Possible values of style are:

absolute - MoveTo uses absolute co-ordinates. The page collapses to fill the empty space.

relative - MoveTo uses relative co-ordinates which may be negative.

none - Ends the Float behavior.

Moves the floating Flash Movie to the specified coordinates.
x and y can be defined in "px"(default) or "%".

Saves a ViewState string for the Flash Movie. This string remains constant for a Flash Movie - even after page reloads and postbacks.

The ViewState is particularly useful to save variables such as the current frame of the Flash Movie to allow persistence after the page reloads reload.

Saves a key/value pair into the ActionSpeak SessionState object for later retrieval. This data persists across all Flash movies on the website, even upon return visits.

Sends a trace action to both the Flash output window, and the live Debugger window. Replaces the traditional trace() function.
