public function MMExecute(name:String):String

| Player Version : | Flash Player 9 |
Lets you issue Flash JavaScript API (JSAPI) commands from ActionScript.
In Flash CS3, the MMExecute() function can be called only by a movie that
is used as a Flash Panel, by an XMLtoUI dialog box, or by the Custom UI
of a component. JSAPI commands have no effect in the player, in test movie mode,
or outside the authoring environment.
The Flash JSAPI provides several objects, methods, and properties to duplicate or emulate commands that a user can enter in the authoring environment. Using the JSAPI, you can write scripts that extend Flash in several ways: adding commands to menus, manipulating objects on the Stage, repeating sequences of commands, and so on.
In general, a user runs a JSAPI script by selecting Commands > Run Command. However,
you can use this function in an ActionScript script to call a JSAPI command directly.
If you use MMExecute() in a script on Frame 1 of your file, the command executes when
the SWF file is loaded.
For more information on the JSAPI, see "Extending Flash" at http://www.adobe.com/go/jsapi_info_en.
Parameters
name:String — A string passed to MMExecute(). MMExecute() parses the string and
executes any JavaScript commands.
You can assign the string a variable and then pass the variable to MMExecute(). You can also
separate your JavaScript function into smaller strings;
MMExecute() returns the value of the last function called.
|
String — A string representation of the result, if any, sent by the JavaScript statement.
