I need to strip a string from another and get the remnants. The string I need to strip is a Twitter username, so it can be variable length, but always starts with an '@' and can only contain alphanumeric characters or underscores.

For example, the original string might be "@username: tweeting about stuff" and I need to get out of that ": tweeting about stuff".

Regex :: Use The String.match Method To Find Multiple Occurrences Of The Same Word In A String?

May 25, 2010

In Actionscript and Adobe Flex, I'm using a pattern and regexp (with the global flag) with the string.match method and it works how I'd like except when the match returns multiple occurrences of the same word in the text. In that case, all the matches for that word point only to the index for the first occurrence of that word. For example, if the text is "cat dog cat cat cow" and the pattern is a search for cat*, the match method returns an array of three occurrences of "cat", however, they all point to only the index of the first occurrence of cat when i use indexOf on a loop through the array. I'm assuming this is just how the string.match method is. I want to find the specific indices of every occurrence of a match, even if it is of a word that was already previously matched.

how the string.match method is and if so

ActionScript 3.0 :: Find The Unicode Character?

Feb 7, 2010

I'm working with IPA Character embedding in Flash CS4. I can get almost all the characters to display properly, but "U+2C71" is giving me a problem.This works:

ActionScript Code:
txt.text = "u0294";
This displays "u2C71":
ActionScript Code:
txt.text = "u2C71";

It's like it's not even trying to find the Unicode character. Adobe says that everything up to uFFFF is supported, so I don't have any idea why it would be doing that

Flex :: Find Out The Character Pressed Key In Languages?

Dec 27, 2010

I can't use charCode, or keyCode in KeyboardEvent to find out the character pressed, because even if I change the keyboard layout, charCode and keyCode are not change (if press the same key).So, how to find the presssed character, following to the current keyboard layout?

The charCode property is the numeric value of that key in the current character set (the default character set is UTF-8, which supports ASCII).is not correct.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Separate String By Character?

Dec 29, 2011

What I am after, is taking a string, then taking each character in that string and making it a variable, then displaying each character by itself. My problem is figuring that out. I thought I would try using a for loop and creating each character variable like that, but it doesn't work. I doesn't display anything. Here is my code so far, it seems like the closest thing I've gotten to:

for (var i:Number=1; i<=myString.length; i++)  var letNum:String = myString.charAt(i);  var let:String = letNum;
}

ActionScript 3.0 :: Inserting Character Into A String

Oct 29, 2009

I am attempting to write a utility class that, when fed a camel-case class name, will return it as a String with spaces inserted before uppercase characters. Basically, if I pass SomeClassName into it, it will return "Some Class Name".At the moment, the way I envisage it working is to loop through the String, comparing each char with an array of uppercase characters and, if it finds an uppercase character, I'd like it to insert a space before it.Have experimented with a variety of String methods but can't seem to get anything to work

Actionscript 3.0 :: String Replace Character At Position X?

Feb 13, 2012

I have a string of 0:'000000' named stringtest I need to replace the 0 at the position x with 1. My code in flixel(a free library to create games)

Code: Select allif (FlxG.keys.justPressed("X"))
{
stringtest=stringtest.replace(stringtest.substring(1,2), '1');
}

it doesn;t replace the second 0 with 1., but it replaces the first one. However if the initial sting is 'let's go' if I press x the letter e is replaced with 1. if the string is 'eet's go' if i press x the first e is replaced with 1 and if i press x again the second letter e is replaced.

Does anyone know what the character limit for a string in AS3 is? I'm generating a rather large XML string in a flash app which I'm sending to a php script to parse and save to a DB. I was stepping through the code and it looks like after a certain period that my XML string is going to blank. I'm assuming that this is because it's going over a limit. I don't really want to change my design but I suppose I'm going to have to if this won't work.
