loadvars?


q)i confused between loadvars , loadvariables? see 1 loading movie clip why load data movie clip anyway?

q)why use actionscript on using flash ide, speed reasons?

to frank, don't know start second question, i'll begin first. (strange introduction guess ;-))

loadvariables method of movieclip global function wrote: loading (and sending) variables , server side script or textfile.
the loadvars class same lot more controll on do, e. g. can decide load or send or both simultaniously; gives methods monitor arrival of data requested.

there milloin or more use-cases that. example if have game highscore, might want load scores @ moment when user has finished playing game have results recived while playing in addition on server when started playing.
an other case recive date , time @ end of game server time on users machines aren't set right. or have guesbook, want load entries stored dynamically on server show in application etc...

concerning second question:

a there things cannot timeline only, start simple if -> statements steering objects throu 3-dimensional space via mouse, calculation shopping carts etc.

if refering cases can both ways (say animatiing along straight line) in cases question of personal liking way go, performance matters are, if @ not siginficant in case can think of now.
if have highly interactive, actinscript ladden application might lot more pracical animation only, while in timeline generated intro animation might suite more same thing timeline tweens - dont have switch between coding , animating time.

i hope answers question.
