Hi Presy,

FlashVars are extra parameters added in the HTML, that you can read from within flash. On your site above, you would add them by adding an extra line in the HTML after:

                    'salign', ''

So it becomes:

                    'salign', '',
                    'flashvars', 'myvariable=myvalue'

You can the myvariable and myvalue to whatever you like.

Hey.. I’m working on an html site with an swf navigation bar, the thing is everytime we click on one of the buttons of the navigation, the html page refresh and the button regain its initial state.
Here is the site : http://www.madeforbeirut.com/
I’ve been told to use “flashvars” but i don’t know how to do it coz i’m not developer.

Plz if anyone can give me the code for AS2 and tell me how it’s done.. it would be soooo helpful !!
I hope my explanation is clear.
Thanks for ur help!!! and hope to get an answer asap.

Hi! Thanks for sharing!

What would be your approach to simulate FlashVars using this class when outside HTML? (inside FlashDevelop for example)

Thank you + happy 007 :)

Yes, that would be possible, but I’m not sure if it makes it better. At least that would separate the two singletons completely thus creating nicer code, but I’m not sure whether a separation is desirable.

Thx, nice idea!

You could overwrite the instance-variable too:

private static var instance:SomeSettingsClass;
public static function getInstance():SomeSettingsClass {
return instance ? instance : instance = new SomeSettingsClass();
}

So you can omit the SomeSettingsClass-cast.
