Working in Flash CS3 Actionscript 3.

I have a flash doc. with a 6 scenes.
Each scene has an animation at the beginning but I only want the animation to play once as people with click around in it.
This is housed on an internal server so I am using shared Objects.

this is what I have:
ACTIONSCRIPT Code: [ Select ]
var my_so:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("visited", "/");
if (my_so.data.newVisitor != undefined) {
    this.gotoAndPlay(1,"promoter");
} else {
    my_so.data.newVisitor = "no";
    this.gotoAndStop(220,"promoter");    
}
 
  1. var my_so:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("visited", "/");
  2. if (my_so.data.newVisitor != undefined) {
  3.     this.gotoAndPlay(1,"promoter");
  4. } else {
  5.     my_so.data.newVisitor = "no";
  6.     this.gotoAndStop(220,"promoter");    
  7. }
  8.  

Promoter is the scene name.

The first scene will run fine but when I add it to others I get this error:
1151: A conflict exists with definition my_so in namespace internal.

I think what's happening is that variables actually do exist across scenes and so the same variable code is fighting across scenes.

Try giving each shared object a unique name in each scene. It might also be having problems with your reference to SharedObject. How are you creating the SharedObject the first time?

ACTIONSCRIPT Code: [ Select ]
var my_so1:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("visited", "/");
var my_so2:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("visited", "/");
var my_so3:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("visited", "/");
 
  1. var my_so1:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("visited", "/");
  2. var my_so2:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("visited", "/");
  3. var my_so3:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("visited", "/");
  4.  
If at first you don't succeed F1... If that doesn't work try Google!
