Loading External SWF into Movieclip on stage but enable to trace currentFrame

[Jatin Dembla]

I have total 4 exter swf naming 1.swf, 2.swf. 3.swf, 4..swf

able to load 1st swf, want to load all the swf in sequance.

var swfNumber:int=1;

var totalSwf:int=4;

var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();

var myRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("swf/"+swfNumber+".swf");

myLoader.load(myRequest); 

addChild(myLoader);

myLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,loaded);

function loaded(event:Event){

    trace("Loaded");

    var extSwf = myLoader.content as MovieClip;

    trace (extSwf.totalFrames)

    trace (extSwf.currentFrame)

    if (extSwf.currentFrame==2) {

        trace("a")

        }

}

Here I am not able to trace a on where I am checking 2nd frame however able to trace a when I checking on 1st frame using below mentioned code

if (extSwf.currentFrame==2) {

        trace("a")

        }

Any Idea.

Your loaded function will execute only one time immediately after the file as loaded, before it starts playing.  Chances are when it does the currentFrame will be frame 1 since the file has yet to do anything.  You would need to continuously check for frame 2 if you want to catch when it reaches there.

Below is the correct code..

I have done it.....

var swfNumber:int=1;

var totalSwf:int=4;

var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();

var myRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("swf/"+swfNumber+".swf");

myLoader.load(myRequest); 

stage.addChild(myLoader);

myLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.INIT , loaded)

function loaded(evt:Event):void

{

var extSwf = myLoader.content as MovieClip;

trace (extSwf.currentFrame)

trace (extSwf.totalFrames)

trace("Loaded")

extSwf.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, onFrame);

function onFrame(e:Event):void

    {

if (extSwf.currentFrame == 2)      //you can take any frame number where you want to trace I have used it to check last frame which totalFrames

        {

            trace("a")

        }   

    }

}
