how to global variable in function

[kofa]

hello all

onSelfEvent (load) {      
    loadV = new LoadVars();                        
    MyArray = new Array();
    loadV.load("mytext.txt");  
    loadV.onData = function(s) {
        p = s.split('&');              
        for(i=1; i < p.length; i++) {            
            MyArray[i]=p[i].split('|'); 
        }
        n = parseFloat(MyArray[1][0]);
        _global.n =n
}
    trace(_global.n)  // undefined
// here how can i use (n) variable
} 

how can i use variable n outside the function

onSelfEvent (load) {   
    var n:Number=0;//Declare n outside of the function.    = _root.n
    loadV = new LoadVars();                        
    MyArray = new Array();
    loadV.load("mytext.txt");  
    loadV.onData = function(s) {
        p = s.split('&');              
        for(i=1; i < p.length; i++) {            
            MyArray[i]=p[i].split('|'); 
        }
        n = parseFloat(MyArray[1][0]);
        _root.n =n
    
}

 trace(_root.n)
}

Since n is declared in _root.main it will be accessed as _root.main.n .

Line 16 happened before mytext.txt was loaded, you have to trace line 16 after the text file is loaded.

onSelfEvent (load) {   
    var n:Number=0;//Declare n outside of the function.    = _root.n
    loadV = new LoadVars();                        
    MyArray = new Array();
    loadV.load("mytext.txt");  
    loadV.onData = function(s) {
        p = s.split('&');              
        for(i=1; i < p.length; i++) {            
            MyArray[i]=p[i].split('|'); 
        }
        n = parseFloat(MyArray[1][0]);
        _root.main.n =n
trace(_root.main.n)// here true value
   ready();//Call ready after the loaded text file loop.
}

function ready(){//Check _root.main.n after text file is loaded
trace(_root.main.n) 
}

}

i cant use ( _root.main.n ) in another mc

i want make variable (n) global and i use it in any mc

Can you send me the file with the mc? You need to put a function inside of the mc for the loader to call.

Hello,

Inside of the _root.main scripting section, you can loop through each player to call there internal ready() function:

onSelfEvent (load) {   
    var n:Number=0;//Declare n outside of the function.    = _root.n
    loadV = new LoadVars();                        
    MyArray = new Array();
    loadV.load("mytext.txt");  
    loadV.onData = function(s) {
        p = s.split('&');              
        for(i=1; i < p.length; i++) {            
            MyArray[i]=p[i].split('|'); 
        }
        n = parseFloat(MyArray[1][0]);
        _root.main.n =n
        
for(var i=1;i<3;i++){
_root.main["player"+i].ready();//Call the internal ready function inside of each movieclip.
}
}
} 

Inside of _root.main.player1 etc... you can store the internal ready function:

onSelfEvent(load){
h=[];  
function ready(){// << Call ready() from the _root.main text loader, since this movieclip is ready before the loader has any data.
for( i=1;i < _root.main.n;i++){
h.push(i)    
}
h = h.sort(function (a:int, b:int):int { return Math.random() > .5 ? -1 : 1; });
_root.data_field.text+=(h) + "   "
}
}
