how do i display data dynamically? I already refered to the tutorial for displaying XML data in flash from Kirupa.com and the amound of data that i want to display varies and i want to display all of them at any given time. Currently what i am doing is adding the set amounts of text areas statically but if the amount of data exceeds that maximum amount, then i wont be able to display the rest?

This is the edit to my question. There is quite a bit of code here, but the problem area is below the second set of three line comments. I stuck the rest in just in case I'm completely wrong about where the problem is. With the "if" statement I can display fine in a run, but not in debug. If I get rid of the conditional it runs fine in debug, but not in a regular run. These errors only occur on the first run of the quiz. In either mode it runs fine fi I take a second quiz.

I'm trying to deploy flash e-learning with dynamic content on a content management server. The xml will not display, no matter how many different approaches I take. So I need a method of encapsulating lots of text within Flash and referencing it from say, an actionscript window.
I seems that referecing any outside content, be it an external actionscript file or text file is out, so I'm left with the option of encapsulation.
I'm having a slight problem getting XML data to read out in dynamic text files. I'm doing a pretty small experiment here. The XML file loads fine. I just must be making some small error in how I assign the value of the text fields to the values in the XML file. Can anyone please tell me my error? I am using Flash CS3 and ActionScript 3.

I had to create a non-component slider for a project. I am new to actionscript (and entirely self-taught so bear with my probably poor programming style) and have no idea how to display the value as the thumb moves. Is there a way to use the sliderevents outside of the slider components, or is there a way to update a text box as the slider moves outside of the sliderevents. Here is the code for one of the sliders:
function getPercentageA() {
return Math.ceil(((slidera.thumb.x-slidera.Track.x)/slidera.Track.width)*100);
}

Below is sample code from a Module I have in my Flex app. I want to dynamically create mx.controls.Image objects and add them to the display. I want the user to be able to move them (this works as below) and be able to change their z-index as well as record new X and Y coords after moving back to the database. How do I determine which object in this.getChildren() is the 'selected' item the user is working with? When I add a MOUSE_OVER event, for example, it does not work.[code]

View 6 Replieshow do we remove object( sprite which has an external swf as it's child ) from display and more importantly from memory yet we still can use the same variable to add another object (yes another sprite like the one we removed yet has different content).., "
i did tried the removeChildAt thing it did remove all the child from the display list but i still can hear sound from video running.

basically i would like to dynamically display and preload an image onto my main movie clip. this image would be the first item in my xml file. on my main timeline i would like to have a few buttons that a user could click to change the default image on the page.
when they select a new image, i would like to have the preloader appear above the default image and then tween between the old and new image (one fading out and one in kinda thing).i sourced some code but i've been having problems preloading the first image. the image loads but the preloader doesn't do anything. it seems like the preloader doesn't seem to recognise that i'm trying to load an image. it thinks it's fully loaded and carries on before the load can begin!i would also like attach a different preloader for the first image displayed than the ones being loaded via the buttons.
Here is part of my code in short:

I realized that if I do addChild, I can't really see the dynamically added component, since flex did not reserve space for my List to display. So I do parentDocument.addChild, and then it appears no problem. My question is since it's being added in the parentDocument, so it is suppose to be a component belong to parentDocument, so is that component still be able to call this handleMouseDown? From my experience, it's still able to, but which doesn't make sense to me. Can someone explain a little about why it can still work, or any better approach other than parentDocument.addChild

View 4 RepliesI have been working with this script for a few days now and have gotten to a near completed point, but I can't seem to script the final step. I have an xml file that is being parsed into my .fla file. There are 3 buttons which are dynamically created based on a tag called <navItem>. The function 'displayContent' should be displaying the appropriate chunk of xml in various text boxes, but instead, it only displays the last chunk (the 3rd chunk) no matter which button I click on.

View 8 RepliesIn my application, I am using a BarChart to display data. However, the text in the category axis can be too long to display on the chart, so flex adjusts the font size automatically to the point that the data is either unreadable, or the text is partially visible.The length of the text varies every time new data comes in, so I can't set the gutterLeft attribute to a static value at runtime.Two things that come to my mind are:Change the gutter dynamically according to new data/Have a scroll bar on the categoryaxis so that if any text won't fit in the space, the user can scroll to see it.[code]
View 1 Repliesdatagrid won't display data. Evidentally it captures the correct no. rows because the scrollbar appears.

Debug tells me there actually is data in the ResultCollection but I'm really struggling to find out why it wont display and will be really. I've searched the web for AS 3 examples of coding a datagrid - all pointers welcomed.
