flex3/air calling functions in embedded swf problem

Asked by ben_ek in Adobe Flex, ActionScript

Tags: , ,

i'm a newbie to flex so i'm hoping there is going to be a simple answer to this problem. it's caused a massive headache so i'm rewarding the maximum number of points to the solution provider.

i have been using a swfLoader to load a swf, then triggering function calls within the swf from flex by using the following in the script tag of my mxml

var mc:MovieClip = MovieClip(myMP3player.content);
 mc.loadMP3Player("file:///"+path, artist, title);

where loadMP3Player is the function in the linked swf and myMP3player is the id of the swfLoader.

this works great, no problems... but when i change the code so that the swf is embedded, rather than loaded at runtime the code above gives a

"ReferenceError:Error #1069 Property loadMP3Player not found" error

when i try to trigger the function.

i have tried many different ways of referencing and embedding the swf, all have the same result. i.e. swf loads fine and the flex project compiles without errors, but i am unable to call the function. see the code snippet for my details.

any help will be really appreciated.

btw: i need to embed the swf as i am distributing the finished article as an air app.Start Free Trial
