ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamically Creating Separate TextBox For Each Result?
Jan 12, 2006
I'm loading in some data from an XML into Flash then searching a level and returning a number depending on how many nodes are on that level (at the moment is "2") Then I collect bits of info from each and trace the results which works fine, problem is I can't seem to create a separte textbox for each result?
Code:
_root.total = _root.xmlNode.childNodes[0].childNodes.length;
for (i=0; i<total; i++) {
venue[i] = _root.xmlNode.childNodes[0].childNodes[i].childNodes[0].childNodes[8].firstChild;
team_a[i] = _root.xmlNode.childNodes[0].childNodes[i].childNodes[0].childNodes[0].firstChild;
team_b[i] = _root.xmlNode.childNodes[0].childNodes[i].childNodes[0].childNodes[1].firstChild;
kick_off[i] = _root.xmlNode.childNodes[0].childNodes[i].childNodes[0].childNodes[5].firstChild;
trace((venue[i]) + ": " + (team_a[i]) + " v " + (team_b[i]) + ", Kick off at " + (kick_off[i]));
I thought I would just need to write something like:
fixture[i].text = (venue[i]) + ": " + (team_a[i]) + " v " + (team_b[i]) + ", Kick off at " + (kick_off[i]);
But that doesn't work..it just displays the 2nd result

I have made a class that Pops-up a window that contains a panel with a textbox and two buttons, one for accepting, other for cancelling. It should work as a prompt in which you enter some text, and then if you like the changes, you accept, else, you cancel and the text you entered is discarded.
The thing I'm not sure how to handle is how to receive the text, once the user presses 'Accept', from the class I want to receive it from.
So, the approach I took is a bit cumbersome: firstly, when launching the popup, I associate with it a function (called onResult() in the code) from the 'class that launches', which will be called after the user presses the 'Accept' or 'Cancel' buttons; secondly, to get the text that the user inserted in the box, I keep a reference to it public from my class.
have a look at the code here: [URL]
I've also programmed in Android before, and the approach there would be much cleanier, just putting the text result from the popup inside a bundle inside an intent, and receiving it from the launched class. Here, I have to pass functions and such, which I don't like at all (although it works!).

I thought the higher the depth number the closer to the viewer it was? I have created a movie which pulls back info from a database, on the original movie, once all the data was loaded, I created the required number of dynamic text boxes on the _root and everything worked perfectly. I then decided that I would need to display other information on other movie clips. So I decided to turn the movie into a movie clip, so that I could create other movie clips and load these as needed. I created a new blank movie, attached a blank movieclip (depth 0) as a container for the movie clips that will hold the different data.
I then used attachMovie(depth 1) to attach the original movieclip, which holds the database info. I then changed the original movie, so that it would create the text boxes in this movie clip(depth 3), so that when I decided to load another movie, I don't have to clear up text boxes on the root. When I run the movie, I get the background image for the data movie clip, but I don't see the text. I used trace to make sure that the text boxes were being created and the text values were assigned and they are. So why can't i see the text?

I'm creating a timeline structured site where a movie clip on the stage called 'slider' is set to slide automatically according to how far left, or right the mouse position is from the center of the stage. This works. I even have it set it up so that using two variables, i can decide how much or even which portion of the movie clip (or the timeline) the user is allowed to slide around in.I then have a movieclip called 'yearMarker' which is attached at runtime inside the 'slider' movie clip. This is done through a While loop and PHP script which retrieves from the database the field values for "year" (just a string denoting the particular year in question), and "yearXPosition" (which is how far along on the x axis the attached movie clip should be.the string I retreive from php looks like this:
yearOf1=1976&yearPosition1=0&yearOf2=1977&yearPosi tion2=350&yearOf3=1978&yearPosition3=1350&yearOf4= 1979&yearPosition4=1700&yearOf5=1980&yearPosition5 =2050&...ect.

I've created a small application that links various Sound Clips to corresponding Sound variables, and the individual start and stop commands work fine. However, when I try altering the volume, the controls affect all the sounds in the movie. I'd like to refrain from creating separate SWF files to represent each sound, but I will if I have to.

I am trying to load various swfs into a main swf. The initial swf loads in by default, the others load when buttons are clicked. All of the buttons also call a lengthy function called loadpic which appears later in the code - Currently the buttons load in the swfs as required, however the swfs are always behind the initial default swf. Is there a way to add removeChild to the buttons? I have tried creating seperate functions for each button and added the line removeChild(); however doing that means I would also have to repeat all of the later functions as well. If I add removeChild(); without placing it in a function the default swf doesn't show at all.

I am having a problem in adding and removing the the email field text boxes dynamically. I have an add button beside an email field. On clicking it a new email field is generated below it dynamically with a remove button beside it(this too dynamically). The problem is if I have added 5 email fields and I want to, say remove the third email field, then i have to reset the 'y' position of the subsequent email field text box; i.e; I have to reset the 'y' position of 4th and 5th email fields. This problem becomes serious if I have 10 instead of 5 email fields. I have learn that in Javascript we can do this use of a container that automatically resets the position of the text fields. Is there any way out in Flash for this?

I am unfamiliar with Flash and actionscript and I need help to dynamically change the font of a textbox based on the value of a flashvar. I have a flash template whose content I can edit through XML. The flashvar value specifies the language and points to a different XML file. This works without problems, and I have found online a way to change the font via actionscript. However I need help on how to get a reference to that textbox.
There are two files an .fla and Main.as file. Within the fla file there is a single Scene and when the textbox is selected the properties display "thisLogo" as its name and "Dynamic Text" in the combo box below. Within the Main.as file I have attempted to add the following code:
[Code]...
1119: Access of possibly undefined property thisLogo through a reference with static type Main.

What I need to do is assign 5 separate dynamic text fields to 5 seperate buttons and at the same time to those same five buttons i would like to add 5 images that i would be able to change merely by swapping out the images in the file theyre in on the server.I would also like to get a nice transition between the images...ALSO i want to dynamically load the images for the buttons that will be used for switching from picture to picture(which im thinking i will be able to do after i know the how to do point the aforementioned things.)
Through tutorials I've found around the net I've been able to get most of the parts together... but i get lost because what they show you for AS2 they don't for AS3 and vice versa, at least that ive seen.so... I guess my question is... would i need to set up 5 seperate dynamic text fields on the stage and then set each one of them to one of the corresponding button. If so what AS code would i need to use to do so. And if not what would i need to do?
The other part of the question would be I know about the UILoader... would i be able to use it as my buttons and images, if so would i need 5 seperate ui loaders for both the Thumbnail buttons and the images or is there a way that would be better to do it? and once i do that would i do the transitions using frames and tweens like with AS2?

If I create a new flash AS3 file and create two blank keyframes in my actions layer I can add actions to each keyframe separately no problem. I can then easily switch between the actions frames from the menu bar on the left of the actions input panel. However if I try and do this on any of my projects i've been working on for a while when I create a new blank keyframe in the actions layer and try to add actions to it, I get sent straight back to my first actions keyframe and not a nice blank page. Can I even apply seperate actions to seperate keyframes?

This is NOT the same as my last thread as i am after three and NOT ONE as last time. In the attached movie there are three seperate movies loading into three seperate tweens. Please note that i am happy with this movie as it is, and do not want to change anything about it except for the script itself. It refurs to three seperate clips "b.a","d.c" and "f.e". What i want is for the script to incorperate all three clips under one name of "mc" And instead of have three seperate widths, "width 1","width2" and "width3" i want the script to also incorperate all three widths and heights into just one name of "width" and one name of "height".

I have some button code on frame one. that looks like this:
[AS]on (release, keyPress "<Enter>") {
mylogin = new LoadVars();
mylogin.password = password;
mylogin.username = username;
[code]....
basically sending and recieving variables from a php page. I want to be able to specify what my textbox on frame 5 says in the onLoad statement. Is this possible?
Currently the only way I have been able to get the text to display is either to use the textbox variable and declare that in the onload statement, or to put textbox.text = mylogin.message; on the actual frame.I doubt there is a way to do it, because the actual textbox hasn't be created yet, but if there were a way, that would be nice.

My game is initialized by calling the newBall function below. Every 10 seconds a new ball is created to increase the difficulty by calling the same function. The function works and creates the new ball movie clip, however the previous ball object gets destroyed for some reason. I have an array called ballArr that is supposed to keep track of all of the ball movie clips. I thought that by concatenating the name of the instance with an incrementing number that it wouldn't overwrite the existing object... what am I doing wrong?
Code:
function newBall() {
var ballNum = ballArr.length + 1;
var ball = this.attachMovie("ball_mc", "i" + string(ballNum), 0, {

I would like to be able to create and call an Array dynamically. So to pass a name through a function and create an array based on that name.Then to store values into sections in the array. I got the creating the array dynamically working, but I can't seem to store into it.
Code:
Sort = function (numOfVars,Name,toSort){
This works
_global[Name] = New Array(New Array (),New Array());
This does not work

This does not work
_global[Name + "[i][c]"]= 3
This does not work

I have two MCs classesThe first one is put on the stage. Then, from the first MC class (inside the class), i put another MC. So i created a MC inside the first MC.I can see both MC when i test my movie.I put the second MC when the mouse cursor is over the first MC, and i remove it when the mouse cursor is out the first MC.My problem is that when the mouse cursor is over the second MC, the movie behaves like the mouse cursor goes out of the first MC, so the second MC is removed, so i can't click on it.
