Component variable to allow access to a frame

[Edwin Merced]

Hello

Trying to create an password to access a frame.

I have an Animate component with an instance name of "TextInput_cmpnt".

I also have a custom submit button with an instance name of "submit_btn".

The following code is in the Actions layer:

_this.submit_btn.on('click', function(){

_this.myVar = "Name";

function checkPassword(){
if(TextInput_cmpnt.myVar="Paul" ){
_this.gotoAndPlay(4);
}else{
_this.gotoAndPlay(3);
}

}
checkPassword();
});

Any ideas on what. am doing wrong here will be much appreciated.

Hi.

There is at least one problem in this line:

if (TextInput_cmpnt.myVar = "Paul")

- The equality operators are == or === (triple equals are mostly used in JavaScript);

- Also, do you have a property called myVar in your TextInput component instance?

Or maybe what you want is something like this?

var _this = this;

_this.submit_btn.on('click', function()
{
	if (TextInput_cmpnt.value === "Paul")
	{
		_this.gotoAndPlay(4);
	}
	else
	{
		_this.gotoAndPlay(3);
	}
});

Please let us know.

Regards,

JC
