ActionScript 2.0 :: Assign Numbers To Each XML Item?
May 31, 2005
I've got an XML document that contains names and images for an image gallery, with a menu on the main page, allowing people to click the menu item to display the corresponding image and name.
[AS]
for (i=0; i<total; i++) {
thename[i] = items[i].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
image[i] = items[i].childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
[code]...
I need to be able to assign each of these items a number. This COULD be done by adding a line to the XML doc with a number, then adding an extra line to the ActionScript like this: number[i] = items[i].childNodes[2].firstChild.NodeValue; The trouble is, it is intended that the XML document will be updated regularly, with new items being added in-between exisiting items, therefore, if I had item number 1, followed by item number 2, then wanted to add an extra item after 1, I'd have to call it 2, then rename the existing 2 to 3, and so on. What I need to do is somehow dynamically give each item a number in Flash as the XML is loaded so number[i] = ?(it needs to be number[i] because [i] is used later to refer to items)

I'm currently just testing a few items in Flash. While I'm in this early stage, it'd be quite handy for this particular project if there were a way to assign events to every item in a certain MC (or on _root).
Here's what I've done thus far:
Code:
for (movieClip in _root) {
movieClip.onRollOver = function() {
this.gotoAndStop(2); };
movieClip.onRollOut = function() {
this.gotoAndStop(1);
[Code] .....
If I trace I can clearly see the instance names of the MCs (which means it works -- sort of), but no matter what I've tried I can't get the events to bind to the on-stage MCs.

I'm working on involving the Flash component TileList.
Essentially, I want Flash to assign a variable to each item in the TileList, so that when a user clicks on the item, the relevant product page is displayed.

Im trying to create a list random numbers from 1-30 but only 10 will appear. but i also need to make sure that the list of random numbers will not have duplicates (eg 1,1,20,14,3,28,4,1,18,21). I had the thought of using an array to store the list of numbers but im stuck with how to properly use an if..then to check if the same number has already appeared.
_scriptRookie
Code:
function randRange(min:Number, max:Number):Number {
var randomNum:Number = Math.floor(Math.random()*(max-min+1))+min;
return randomNum;

how to do this and not found much, so here goes:
I want to generate a variable number of random numbers less than 16 with no duplicate numbers
Ive posted the fla, and what i'm doing is generating a random number and putting it into an array then using a for loop to cycle through the array for each new random number to check if its already there. if it is, then i want to regenerate that number.
if you test the fla you'll see that all i get in my array is some lovely zero's and i sort of know why this is, but don't know how to stop it.

I am trying to convert a string having numbers to an integer.
//15 9's are there
var str:String="999999999999999"
var res:Number = new Number(str);
But it is not able to convert correctly as the the var res now has the value 100000000000000000. I know that the number has 52 bits of memory, then why is it not able to do the conversion?

create a function that picks out X amount of numbers from a set of numbers? So if X=3, then i need this function to pick out 3 different numbers from say a set of numbers (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) and then stored it into X number of variables.
In saying that, X will only =2, and =5. So in the first instance, i'll need 2 random numbers from the set above that are not the same numbers, and second instance 5 random numbers from the set above (also no repeats of numbers). Then i need to be able to store those 2 or 5 different random numbers from the set into variables to call them with other functions.

I am generating random numbers between two numbers by the code bellow:
ActionScript Code:
public function randomRange(max:Number, min:Number = 0):Number
{
return Math.round(Math.random() * (1+max - min) + min);
}
trace(randomRange(3,-31));
But I need a code which will return some times '3' and some times '-31'. Not the number between them.

I have been using Actionscript 3.0 in Adobe Flash Builder for a few weeks,and I really like it! Bare with me because I'm not really good at it, yet. Anyway, I was wondering how would I go by adding up odd numbers from an array of numbers? I know how to make all of the numbers add up, but adding only the odd numbers I'm not so sure how to do it.

I have this datagrid:
<mx:DataGrid id="dgCompetenteN" includeIn="Test" left="10" right="472" top="69" bottom="149"
dataProvider="{colCompetente}" editable="false">
<mx:columns>
[Code]....
What I want to do is, when I select an item in the datagrid, the selected item of the dropdown should be the correct one (the one which has the field idCompSuperioara equal to the third element in the selected datagrid row).

I'm creating a mobile app in which I need to show a calendar with months at the top. The months are part of a component that extends from SkinnableDataContainer (and has some custom scrolling/behaviour - which is why I did'nt use a spark list). I need the months to be shown as a 'trapezium' shaped tab and so I'm using a png image as a mask in the item renderer for the component.
When the mask is not applied, it all works well - the months render, the list/data container selection works when I click on a month and so on.When the mask is applied, it renders well, scrolling and everything else seems to work well - but when I click on a month, nothing happens visually. And from the trace statements in my code, it appears list item selection is not changing. Looks like mouse clicks are not working.
Code:
public class TopCalendarMonthRenderer extends LabelItemRenderer {
[Embed(source="/assets/trapezium_alpha.png")]
private static var TrapeziumMask:Class;
private static var trapeziumMaskInstance:BitmapAsset;
[code]...

I have used states in my application.The thing is I have made the first item in my list to be selected. so I gave like this,
if(itemIndex == 0)
this.currentState="selected";
this works fine.The problem is when other item is selected the first item does not change its state,it remains in the selected state until its clicked.My code looks like this,
<s:BorderContainer id="outerCont" width="275" height="100" borderVisible="false"
backgroundColor.normal="#3D3C3C" backgroundAlpha.selected="0.1"
backgroundColor.selected="{data.color}">
My states are like this,
<s:states>
<s:State name="normal" />
<s:State name="hovered" />[code]........

Everything seems to be a string right now & that kinda ruins the whole xml as an internal data structure thing, I don't need a big tree of string I need typed data :-/ Are there any changes I can make to either my XML files or my AS3 code that will force it to cast ints as ints and Numbers as Numbers? Or maybe some kind of type schema I can impose? Not really worked with XML til recently so chances are I'm just ignorant of the canonical way to deal with this...

If I have several items that move across the screen but the user can click any of them at any time, how do I record the current position of any of the items item in order to use that data to change the position of the item after the user clicks?
This is what I am doing: I have 11 images that slide accross the screen. The user can click any of them at any time. When he clicks one I am scaling the image so it looks like it is comming forward (z axis) and then the rest of the images are scaled down so it looks like they are going back on z axis. So what I am trying to do is get the current position of the image when the user clicks the image so that I can use that to correctly estimate the scaling and moving of the image to make it look like it scales from the center and not from the top left corner. So if have a variable that gets the current position of the image being clicked I'm thinking I can change its position using something like: x = currentposition + -45;

I have a problem with my input text fieldsI to type numbers with commas like "2,5" but flash only allows me to type numbers with dots, like "2.5"
In Sweden where I live we only use commas on numbers.
Now I have some input textfields that I must change so they work with commas instead of dots.

When I worked with Flash CS3 and CS4, you could click on an element (such as a photo or a button) and a URL field would appear within the properties pane. From there, you could assign a URL to this element. I'm trying to figure out how to do this in CS5, but I can't find any way of doing it without actions
Is there anyway to simply assign a URL to an element in CS5?
