Unload SWF

[ATGB]

Hi Community, 

I am creating an app in AS3.

One of the things I am doing is I am loading several swfs from outside my app. 

I can load and unload them using the action scrip:

tourdoc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToLoadUnloadSWF);

import fl.display.ProLoader;
var fl_ProLoader:ProLoader;

var fl_ToLoad:Boolean = true;
function fl_ClickToLoadUnloadSWF(event:MouseEvent):void
{
	if(fl_ToLoad)
	{
		fl_ProLoader = new ProLoader();
		fl_ProLoader.load(new URLRequest("swfs/tour.swf"));
		addChild(fl_ProLoader);
	}
	else
	{
		fl_ProLoader.unload();
		removeChild(fl_ProLoader);
		fl_ProLoader = null;
	}
	// Toggle whether you want to load or unload the SWF
	fl_ToLoad = !fl_ToLoad;
}

and it works fine, although I need a close button to unload each swf.

Is there any easy way to do it?

Thank you all

Best Regards 

Ana

It would help if we could figure out what you're asking.

what's wrong with the unload() method?

[ATGB]

Sorry, if I am not explaining right. I will try better...

So, I would like to use one button to load the SWF and a diferent one to unload the same SWF, like one button to open a window and a close button. Somehow it is not working the way I am doing it. I am not able to unload the SWF unless I press it twice. Probably I am doing something wrong...

Sorry for bothering you with my nonsense...

import fl.display.Proloader;

var proloader:Proloader=new Proloader;

var urlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("swfs/tour.swf");

load_button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,loadF);

unload_button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK.unloadF);

function loadF(e:MouseEvent):void{

proloader.load(urlReq);

addChild(proloader);

}

function unloadF(e:MouseEvent):void{

proloader.unload();

removeChild(proloader);

}

Thank you for your answer.

It makes sence to me, just getting this two errors:

Scene 1, Layer 'Actions', Frame 1, Line 13, Column 49 1119: Access of possibly undefined property unloadF through a reference with static type String.
Scene 1, Layer 'Actions', Frame 1, Line 13, Column 49 1136: Incorrect number of arguments. Expected 2.

Thank you for your patience.

there's a typo in line 2.  the last period should be a comma:

unload_button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK.unloadF);

should be

unload_button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,unloadF);

[ATGB]

YES!!!

Working now!!! 

You can't imagine how many times I looked at the code to see if there was something wrong...

Thank you very much
