I cant seem to find a way to dynamically change the rangeStart of a DateField component.
I have two DateField components, check-in and check-out, and I want to restrict the SelectableRange rangeStart of the check-out so that it is equal to check- n.rangeStart + 1, one day after the check-in date.
I have been working with Flex and ActionScript for a few years now, but am just now getting into switching locales dynamically in one of my applications. I have set up locale bundles and have everything working well except for one thing I can't seem to get to change...the internal labels and date formatting on a DateField component.The DateField component is defined statically in MXML, but I am trying to change the dayNames, monthNames, and dateFormat attributes dynamically when a user changes locale, and it doesn't seem to work. have bound variables set up in the MXML that I am trying to change for all 3 of those attribute values, but they don't seem to change when I change the variable values.
I've tried making invalidateDisplayList() and invalidateProperties() calls after changing the values, but that doesn't seem to matter. I even added a call to "initialize()" after the 2 invalidate calls thinking maybe that needed to be called, but nothing seems to make a difference in getting the labels updated within the componentwhat I could be doing wrong? I've verified that the newDaysArray and newMonths array are getting set up properly from the bundle that they are being read from in the actionscript below.I should add that I've also tried editing the appropriate array variables in theSharedResources.properties file within the appropriate locales' framework_rb.swc library in my Flex sdk, and that hasn't seemed to do anything either.Here's code snippets:
MXML:
Code:
<mx:DateField id="dayChooser" formatString="{formatString}" dayNames="{daysArray}"

View 1 RepliesI am making a form that pass's the Variables over to php. I am using Input text feilds and also a combo box. The text fields were a breeze and the combo box took a little bit of research but I got that working by assigning it a instance name of cBox and then using the following code to pass it through:
Code:
cBoxVar= cBox.getValue();
Now I want to add a DateField using the AS2 DateField Component. How would I pass it over to a variable so when the form collects at the end it will go over to the php?
I have a form in which i add two dates
Start date
End Date
I want to know how i validate that the selected start date is always less than end date(actually an expiry date).
I' m trying to use the DateField control.I can set the current value using the selectedDate field.Adobe says: "Selecting the currently selected date in the control deselects it, sets the selectedDate property to null", so when user selects other date the selectedDate = null. How do I can get the current selected value? I only saw in the debugger that DateField's text property contains the string with selected date? Do I need to parse it back?

I've got an Adobe Captivate file which is pulling through an SWF which I have created. I am not sure exactly how the CP file is importing this SWF but it is.I'd like to ensure that this SWF is on the uppermost layer when the file is published as at the moment it is placed further down the order - which leaves it obscured by other elements on screen. Is there any AS3 code like onEnterFrame or something like that in AS3 which would lift it to the highest depth?

I'm involved in a project that is pushing the limits of my AS3. Right now I am trying to use the throwSlider to dynamically change a circle MovieClip so that the slider starts at the left and when dragged to the right it increases the size of the circle. When dragged back it decreases. I am getting some interactivity but nothing great or smooth. I know I have to connect the code to the x boundaries but I am not sure how to go about it. The circle would give the user some notion of size the real change would be lineStyle(). My goal is to use this slider to increase the line thickness in a simple drawing app I am making for my students.

View 2 RepliesI have a swf file that displays data from an external text file, alongside a bunch of buttons that link to html pages. What i would like to achieve is to somehow use the external text file to alter the URLs of the buttons.
The swf i am building is getting used as a 'what's new' section, so it will be updated almost weekly, hence it reading the external text file (so i can update it without using the fla). And because the whats new section changes alot, so too does the button links. Hence, the buttons need to be updated aswell, and ideally, that can be done from the external text file.
Why don't i just use the dynamic text to <a href> to the new page you ask? because that would be sucky.Besides, i think that something like this could open more opportunities to the way we (well at least I) construct our fla's.

I�m making a full Flash site, and it would be bilingual. I m making the text parts with external xml files. And I just want that only the text change when the site user changes the language.
I�ve found a great example here [URL], but it appears that only works great in one single SWF file.
What I want is that this function works in the whole site; at any time de site user could change the language for all the text contents.
I �ve the site with this organization:
1- there�s a main.swf with the menu about/services/etc�etc� and it �calls� about.swf, services.swf�. ;
2- the services.swf file contain a sub-menu serviceA, serviceB, serviceC� and serviceA calls serviceAdescription.xml, and so on�
And I want that the language switcher on the main.swf works for the various xml�s that are in different swf�s.
How can I do that?

View 1 Repliesaccording the documentation borderThickness is an applicable style, but when I try to set it to anything (would prefer '0') it says "The style 'borderThickness' is excluded by type 'mx.controls.DateField'."I could style the background color to be the same as the background, but I have an image behind so this will not work.

I making a flash contact form for reservations. I dragged the DateField component onto the stage, gave it an instance name of rDate_txt and it works great in picking a date and sending to my php emailer. Its formatted like 10 Apr 2008.Now, Im trying to calculate the day of the week based on the date. I can calculate todays date with...
Code:
myDate = new Date();
daytext = myDate.getDay();
switch (daytext)
{

get the date chosen from the DateField component?Once I get the day of the week, I need to make a different ComboBox visible if its a Friday or Saturday. So I would think I need to set up an onchange listener?
