In flex 3 I have a hierarchical data structure. I would like to display the content of it in a tree. My problem is that I have nodes which data calculated from children nodes. How to structure the hierarchy to make automatic changes to those parent nodes, if their children's data changed? For example:
Every node has a warning flag. If some of the children warning flag changed to true, then the parent warning flag should change automatically set to true. A node integer field is the sum of the children integer fields, and if any of the children changes, the parent integer field "calculates" the sum immediately. Is there an easy solution wit good structuring changes happen automatically, or I have to make some custom functions?

View 2 RepliesI am using an mx:DateField in Flex and it works nice with the date picker, but I also need it to be editable, so I set editable="true". The problem is that now the user can enter anything they want - even though I have a formatString="YYYY-MM-DD" set. The date picker honors this format, but if the user enters in the format MM/DD/YYYY they can - or they can even enter garbage data.
I realize I can set up a data validator to check that it is a valid date and in the appropriate format as per the flex docs, but I was hoping to have something I have seen in other languages where the text field would show something like "0000-00-00" and the user clicks in to the field and it allows them to change only the digits (the zeros) and can not type any alpha characters or add/remove any length.
I want to have data called up when a certain number is entered, like a html page with text and pictures. If the correct item # is entered, the information is pulled up. Is this a good application for flash and actionscript? or for something like javascript and ajax? I'm brand new to both, but i'm very willing to learn.
View 4 RepliesI am trying to get an answer from Input text Field and compare it to the correct answer.here is how my code look like:
//I have a confirm button here
confirm_button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, ConfirmFunction);
//I have a correct answer as a String here
var correctans:String = "July";
[code]....
This will check if correct answer contains words in the answer from input text field.But that will result on if I key in "July is great", it will still link to the correct answer frame instead of wrong answer frame.I want the answer to be exact same as the correct answer.
I have a grid with 12 movieclip buttons. When a button is pushed a answer is displayed and on the answer frame, there's a button "click for more information".
That button points to information in a frame within the mc button. However, when I test it all the buttons on the root timeline appear on top of this information, covering it up.
Also, when you move the mouse while in this "further info" area, it disappears

View 1 RepliesMy Flex application does a remote call to weborb to save some data from Flex. When this data is saved, a service is called on another server. All this time Flex is waiting for an answer. Is it possible to call this service (on the other server) and not wait for an answer. I have tried to call the service asynchronous but all this does is calling the service in a different thread. Flex still has to wait for both threads to be finished... So when the data is saved, flex should get its answer. (while the thread handling the service is still running).

View 5 RepliesI am rendering a TextField (Flash CS5) with the following css and html properties :
css = "a {font-weight: bold;} fu {color: #00A0A0;}"
wordWrap = true
multiline = true
html = <![CDATA["Phoenicians were pioneering artisans and ingenious craftsmen...
They developed the technique behind the production of transparent glass...
Their innovation spread around the globe throughout the past centuries...
<fu>WE AIM TO CARRY ON WITH THE INNOVATION</fu>"]]>
The last QUOTE is rendered in a line BELOW "WE AIM TO...". It's rendered like this :
WE AIM TO CARRY ON WITH THE INNOVATION
The ONLY way to render the quote in the same line with "WE AIM..." is to :
a) Either put it INSIDE <fu>
b) Or remove <fu> altogether.
Is this a Flash bug? Am I doing something wrong with css or html?

View 2 RepliesThis is for a website with seven frames (one page per frame)
I can load the gallery .swf in background but I only want it to show up on frame 7 (gallery button). Then if the user goes anywhere else (eg. home button - frame 1) the loaded gallery .swf disappears.
I can load it and make it invisible, and can make it visible on frame 7 but then it's visible when you navigate anywhere else.
This is the load code on entering frame 1:
stop();
//make gallery invisible in this frame
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, invisible);

I'm trying to allow ascii codes to be entered into a textField, using num codes (ALT+Num), and am seeing some very strange behaviour. If I enter: Alt + 14, I get a charCode of 9835, and ♫ is displayed in my trace output, but a placeholder square is entered in the textField. If I enter: Alt + 0014, I get a charCode of 14, placeholder square is displayed in trace, and ♫ is displayed properly in the text field.
View 3 Repliesso im makeing this wheres waldo type game and I have this code timer where when 15 seconds go by it goes to a keyframe where it says "you lose"and I have this other code where when you click a button it goes to a different keyframe where it says "you win"now the problem is if you click on the button in say 13 seconds you'll go to the "you win" frame but when 2 more seconds go by (makeing it 15 seconds) it'll take you to the "you lose" frame so i was wondering if theres a action where you can delete another action once you enter the "you win" frame or something like that

View 2 RepliesI have an .swf file that is going to serve as a login for a new website being built. The .swf will contain a movie symbol and two text fields underneath it. The idea is for the movie symbol to play at different points on its timeline based on what is being typed in the text fields below. For instance, when someone is typing in their user name, the movie file will start at a certain point on the timeline and when they type in their password, it will jump to another point in the timeline. I figure thats the easy part and I would settle for just that.
The complicated part is this: Ultimately, I want the movie symbol to jump to those points on its timeline based on how many characters have been typed into the text fields. For example, if someones user name is "christoper", I need the file to play the movie once someone has typed in "chri" and then jump to the next section of its timeline after they've typed in "stopher", and so on down through the password.
I want to know how to display a name which was entered to input text field on a frame which exists in another scene.
I can do it on the same frame, but cant find a way to use the data in two different scenes.
I have made a form and want to check valid data i.e if alpanumeric value is req. user cannot enter numeric value and vice versa. I found no inbuilt fn. in flash which could detect whether the entered value is string or numeric.
