Naming a Movie

The NAME property designates the movie's name. You can both get and set this property. The NAME property is no. 13, so you get its value by going:

  mySwf.TGetProperty(timeline, 13);

And you set it in a similar way:

  mySwf.TSetProperty(timeline, 13, value);

Play the following movie by clicking the Play link. Get the NAME of the movie by clicking the Get NAME link. Name the movie as "foo" by clicking the Set NAME link:

Here is the source code:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="flashcheck2.js">
</SCRIPT>
<A href="javascript://" onclick="javascript:mySwf2.
 Rewind(); return false">Rewind</A> |
<A href="javascript://" onclick="javascript:mySwf2.
 Play(); return false">Play</A> |
<A href="javascript://" onclick="javascript:alert(mySwf2.
 TGetProperty('/', 13));
  return false">Get NAME</A> |
<A href="javascript://" onclick="javascript:mySwf2.
 TSetProperty('/', 13, "foo");
  return false">Set NAME</A>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
  var mySwf2 = Flash_embedSWF("opener.swf", "opener");
</SCRIPT>
