Dynamically creating ActionScript cue points from FlashVars loaded using the HTTPService tag

In a previous post, “Dynamically creating ActionScript cue points from FlashVars received from the HTML container”, we looked at how to create ActionScript cue points based on variables passed in to our Flex application from the HTML template’s “FlashVars” parameter. In this post we look at a similar approach, although using the <mx:HTTPService /> tag to load cue points from an external file of name/value pairs. This example could easily be extended further to pass a variable to a server-side script which would grab cue point information from a database and pass it back into Flex either as a string of name/value pairs, or as an XML document.

Dynamically creating ActionScript cue points from FlashVars received from the HTML container

In a previous post, “Creating ActionScript cue points with the VideoDisplay controlEdit”, reader Florian asks how you can set cue points dynamically from FlashVars.

Well, here’s one method of passing a single name/value pair from the HTML template into our Flex application and having Flex parse the string and dynamically add the ActionScript cue points to the VideoDisplay control.

Hope that helps.
