ActionScript 1/2 :: Parsing The XML Namespace?
Sep 28, 2009
I am attempting to parse some weather information from the Yahoo weather RSS feed.This is a typical XML node;
<description>Yahoo! Weather for Palm Springs, CA</description>
I used the typical XML parsing code in as2;
var text1 = this.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
txt1.text = text1;
I was doing pretty good until I reached a node that was formatted thus;
<yweather:forecast day="Mon" date="28 Sep 2009" low="74" high="103" text="Sunny" code="32" />
This text traced a value of undefined.I have tried to research this and so far all I have been able to find out, is that this is a XML namespace and is very easily handled in as3. Unfortunately I have to use as2.How do I parse out this information into a dyamic text fields?

I am loading multiple rss/xml file. For some of them I have to use namespace (atom feeds)so I write this lines
var atom:Namespace = new Namespace("http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom");var rssXML:XML = new XML();default xml namespace = atom;
I test this in a outside my program but when I integrate this into my main program, it seem like it 's in conflict with all other xml
the problematic line is :default xml namespace = atom
How do I set a namespace only for one xml object ?

When I use FlashBuilder to connect to a remote Java object using BlazeDS, FlashBuilder automatically creates a local valueObject matching the object in the remote server.
However, the package name of the remote object gets lost in translation.
Hence if I have two remote Java objects com.foo.A and com.bar.A, I won't be able to distinguish between them in Flex. So I end up having to name my remote classes com.foo.AFoo, com.bar.ABar.

I was trying to use default xml namespaces, but came upon something strange.
I got the following piece of xml:
<animal type="sheep" xmlns="http://blabla">
<name>josh</name>
<age>2</age>
</animal>
[Code].....
now for some reason, the elements are correctly traversed using the default namespace. But the attribute isn't found. After a bit of debugging, I found that I could only retrieve the attribute when using xml.animal.attribute(new QName("", "type")). Why isn't the attribute in the same default namespace as the element?

With the following code, everything works as expected, and I retain both the default namespace, and the xsi namespace in the trace printout.
var tempData = <objects xmlns="http://www.spicefactory.org/parsley" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
</objects>

I'm writing a flash app to help build timed text files. I have all the captions stored in array, and a function that builds the XML object and spits it out. I start out with a template file, then use insertChildAfter() and copy() to create as many <p> tags as I need to, based on the length of my array. If I manually create the following file, it works fine.

I have this error and cant figure out how to fix it. For me it means that the namesace is defined twice somewhere on the timeline, but i checked everything, and its defined once.I have a drop down menu. If i click on first entry from the drop down menu,it will take me somewhere, load sth,then i go back, and click on the other entry where the error ocures, then its fine, table is loading, no error. But if i load the swf, and click stright away on the entry where this error occurs, then i get the error. What does it mean?

If I Have an XML variable that equals this:
var X:XML=XML("<mx:WindowedApplication xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="vertical" xmlns:ns1="Tools.*" minWidth="684" minHeight="484" creationComplete="Init();" xmlns:ns3="Components.*" initialize="I()"/>");
And I try to list the attributes via:
var AList:XMList=X.attributes();
The three namespaces, "xmlns:mx","xmlns:ns1", and "xmlns:ns3" aren't listed among the attributes! How can I access this information programmatically?

There's some custom namespaces in my Flex project, as well as the usual namespaces like "mx" and "s". I'd like to use getStyleDeclaration on a style that's in a custom namespace, and I can't seem to figure out the proper syntax.My stylesheet looks partially like this:
.WidgetTitle
{
fontWeight: bold;
}
[code]....
If I try the same thing with a custom namespace, it outputs null:
trace(styleManager.getStyleDeclaration("myNamespace|ScaleBar")); // output: null
I've tried all the combinations I can think of: "myNamespace|ScaleBar", "myNamespace.ScaleBar", "myNamespace ScaleBar" etc and I can't find any documentation on how to do this.

I have to build an Adobe AIR application with the Namespace 2.6. The problem is, I recently downloaded Flash Builder 4.6 onto a new computer, and it requires the Namespace to be 3.1. Otherwise, it throws an error. The only solutions I can find online are to change the Namespace in the app.xml file to 3.1. This however causes issues later on when I try to Code-sign the application.The easiest fix would be to make Flash Builder build the application with Namespace 2.6.

I keep running into this problem that I need a solution to. How can I create a display object, that I can write proxy methods for, so I can catch all method calls on the object.asically, the problem is that the only way to implement a proxy is by extending the Proxy class. But what if my class extends Sprite, but I still want to implement the methods from the flash_proxy namespace?

I wrote two projects using the same 3D library but I modified it pretty heavily in one (to the extent that the inheritance is pretty different on one) - now I need to load one into the other and I'm getting some weird errors that look like the child swf is trying to use the same class definitions as the parent even though it should be in an entirely different namespace.
So - anyone have a tricky way of forcing the loaded swf to use the classes it's compiled with rather than the ones already defined in the parent swf (and vice versa) or do I need to refactor all my stuff?

I have a component library. It has a manifest file that looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<componentPackage>
<component id="AutoComplete" class="be.edge.components.AutoComplete" />
<!-- more components left out for brevity -->
</componentPackage>
I compile the library through FlashBuilder with these compiler settings:
When I use the compiled library in other FlashBuilder projects everything works as expected. I get code completion and when I select a suggestion from the code completion a namespace attribute is automatically added to the component, like this:
<s:Skin xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:ns="library://ns.edge.be" >

Word to the Flash Genies-- Heres my wish that hopefully someone else is struggling with an enormously mind-boggling bug in flash cs3-- when I try to create a public class that extends any of the native flash display objects, and I put this in its own package, even after specifically importing the specific class OR the package wildcard .* the fla that I'm compiling returns error 1017-- Base Class Definition not found. The fla is set to the correct classpath. This situation slipped from 'minor annoyance' to 'mind boggling' after I moved the directory to a different pc with cs3, reset the local classpath and it compiled perfectly. So then I moved the directory to a mac, running flex builder, and made a tester file to use the class, which compiled perfectly.
For some wierd reason, this particular computer cannot compile, even though nothing had changed in the actual class. Maybe it is important to note that this machine is running Vista (and perhaps should not be!)? Maybe it is important to note that the package is part of an SVN directory? Maybe it is important to note that after re-saving the same class file, changing only the class name (from BitmapSprite to BSprite) enabled it to compile on this machine, even though both the mac and other pc (running windows XP) could compile the class as BitmapSprite. I'm not sure if the name change or just re-saving allowed it to compile--but maybe it's significant that the new named instance was not committed to svn.

I have come across a variable scoping issue in Actionscript 2.0 that seems rather odd. I create a Game class that has various types of properties:
class Game
{
public var test_number = new Number;
public var test_array = new Array;
[code]....
I can assign the numeric properties for each object just fine:
g1.test_number = 42;
g2.test_number = 23;
However, when I assign values to the array property:
g1.test_array[ 0 ] = 1;
g2.test_array[ 0 ] = 2;
...for some reason this will assign '2' to both of these values, even though they exist within separate Game objects! What's stranger is that they stay in their own discrete namespaces if I populate the arrays like this:
g1.test_array = [ 1, 2 ];
g2.test_array = [ 3, 4 ];
That works just fine- the overlapping-namespace problem does not occur. However, it does occur with the test_hash as well:
g1.test_hash.some_key = 1;
g2.test_hash.some_key = 2;
This code results in both g1 and g2 winding up with '2' in this value! How can this be? Is this a bug in actionscript?

I am fairly new to programming and i have gone through a few flash cs4 as3 tutorials and recently i have started to try and alter them. The one i need help with is a number guessing game where you guess a number between 1 and 10, and i am trying to change it to a color guessing game, where you guess either "red" or "blue".
I keep getting an error in line 5 "var red = true;". The error is 1151: A conflict exists with the definition red in namespace internal. There is also a "Warning:3596: Duplicate variable definition" for the same line. Here is the code:

Is mx.core.* something in the flex sdk / framework? I am trying to get the unserializer from [URL] to work with flash CS4, and I am getting the compiler error: 1004: Namespace was not found or is not a compile-time constant. The lines called out in the package are: use namespace mx_internal and mx_internal static var c:uint;
I don't know the first thing about namespaces, but does anyone know how to get this package/class working in CS4 AS3? It might be something simple I am missing. I have attached the .as package file (uploaded as a txt file) if anyone wants a look... I am having to get a lot of lists from a mySQL database and it is becoming a real pain urlencoding them all manually. If I could just urlencode(serialize($result)); in php and send that file to AS3 to be decode it would be so much simpler.

I am currently trying to move one of my AS2 projects over to as3 for a school project. The problem I am having is that my as2 project declares variables on the keyframe that are used on that frame only, the following frames declare the same variables for their own operations.. IE (Score = 0). The problem with as3 is that I am getting namespace errors and how to stop it. this is a puzzle game created originally in as2.. for the first level of the game the keyframe has this code on it to declare the variables to be used for the first level ONLY

I have a Flash builder project that I am migrating from SDK 4.1.0 to 4.5.1. This has been a relatively easy change (we are using maven for our builds, and were able to get a successful build after updating to the 4.5.1 dependencies).
As said, the project builds fine with maven and flexmojos. The issue is when opening the project in flash builder. The maven project is imported and then set as a flex project by running the maven flexmojos:flexbuilder build command.
The issue lies when certain mx components that are specified with the s: namespace are no longer accepted by the IDE, and result in an error. For example, for the following to compile:
<s:states>
<s:State name="normal" />
<s:State name="disabled" />
</s:states>
s:State must be changed to the mx namespace:
<s:states>
<mx:State name="normal" />
<mx:State name="disabled" />
</s:states>
This is just one example, and only happens for certain spark-namespaced components. Why is this? Why does this compile OK with Flex SDK 4.1.0 but not with Flex SDK 4.5.1, and what is the cause of the necessary namespace change?

I have an xml document that has namespace qualified elements. What I want to do is search the xmlList to see how many namespace qualifier elements and/or attributes there are. So for example
<ns1:root xmlns:ns1="httpL//ns1.com" xmlns:xsi="http://xsi.com" xmlns:notused="http://notused.com">
<child1 xsi:attr1="a">some text</child1>

I have an actionscript 3 library item, "BG", that is linked to the class BGClass. BG contains a Sprite that has an instance name, "bg" and likewise BGClass has a public bg property. So the class looks like this:
public class BGCass extends Base {
public var bg:Sprite;
public function BGCass() {
bg.width = 200
}
}
Everything works fine. But if I wish to move the public bg into the Base class like this I get the error.
public class BGCass extends Base {
public function BGCass() {
bg.width = 200
}
}
[code].....
I have tried using getter setters in Base and overriding them in BGClass and I still get the error. Is this a bug in Flash? Is there a clean solution or do I need to create some sort of proxy variable to finally get bg to Base? I know that turning off "automatically declare stage instances" in Flash will get rid of the error but I need to keep it on for the designers.

I'm pretty dumb when it comes to AS3. I've never really done any coding before AS3, so it's pretty tough for me.
Anyways, this should be easy for someone nice to fix. This is just a simple timer that I can't get to work.
