Need Flash AS help for Blackwell movie
I am using a learning interactions quiz at the end of an animated movie. Because it is entertaining I would rather not launch as a standalone quiz. Everything works perfectly when the quiz is on its own timeline that starts at frame1, but whether I use loadMovie or use the quiz as a movieclip, or start the quiz on frame 1460 on the scene1 timeline the calculate score control doesn't work. It is called mc, frameNav and it comes with the Flash quiz templates. The AS associated with that mc is below. The movie without scoring can be seen at http://bushcheated04.com/blackwell/

It has occured to me that perhaps I should be using (_child._totalframes-2) but I am still unclear as I am primarily an AS newb who uses other's AS.


onClipEvent (load) {
curQuest = 0;
if(_parent.Options.QuestionsToAsk < (_parent._totalframes-2) && _parent.Options.QuestionsToAsk > 0){
totQuest = "/ " + (_parent.Options.QuestionsToAsk+1);
}
else{
totQuest = "/ " + String(_parent._totalframes-1);
}

function updateFrame() {
curQuest++;
}
updateFrame();
}

1. You might get more help at the Computer Help & Support Group
here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=242
Sorry, I'm hopelessly 20th century (at best) and have no more constructive suggestion.

4. No but I certainly see lots of empty MCs in some of the FLAs I've
collected. Could I send you the 2 FLAs the Blackwell movie and the quiz?

5. You may have to degrade your files first.
I'm running MX 2004.

But sure. I can look. I'm actually going over some files right now so I'll be working with Flash for a bit. But don't hold your breath I'm no AS guru. A flasher yes but not quite the master of code I would like to be. PM me.
