Is it possible to call external.js file in templates with out override?

I tried but it will not diplay a result.

I don’t believe you can do that, but I’d recommend asking on a higher traffic list like FlexCoders and see if anybody else has tried something similar.

Sorry,

My questions is that if it is possible to eliminate any script tags in html (so no src=”scripts.js” or inline codes in html), and then have the actionscript to include the scripts.js directly.

Reason I ask is that I am distributing the swf which will be embedded in new owners’ html page and I cannot force people to include the script tag in html.

Sorry I didn’t make it clear in the first place.

You mean you want to move the code from scripts.js and paste the JavaScript into the HTML template directly? Yeah, you can do that. The only “gotcha” would be that if you change your publish settings your changes to the HTML template may be lost.

Is it possible to eliminate in template html, and instead just includes the external scripts.js directly from block?

Then today is your lucky day! Let me dedicate today’s post to you, “Calling ActionScript functions from your HTML templates using the ExternalInterface API”.

If I get time later this evening, I may even try and do another ExternalInterface.call example which is a bit more interesting (not much, just a bit).

so i’m posting this here: i’d like to see an example where you have a combobox, an array binded as dataprovider, select something, change the array (only add elements to it, and sort), and somehow the selectedItem remains the same! so, basically an onDataproviderChanged event or something like that would be lovely. dataChange does not trigger, when the array is updated.

thanks a lot!

You’re in luck, the blog basically is a cookbook, and its free! Plus, it has a handy search and tag/category archives to hopefully make it a bit easier to find what you want.

Thanks for reading,
Peter
