ActionScript 2.0 :: HTML Tables In Flash?
Sep 3, 2009
I need to create a 3-column 10-row (sometimes up to 12) table in Flash. I don't need any sorting or resizeable colums or anything like the DataGrid component offers. I'd be happy with 30 dynamic text fields, but that doesn't seem like the right way of doing it.I can make an XML document or an HTML page (although flash can't load HTML pages/tables if I understand correctly? Only basic html). I think XML would be easiest. This is for data that is reloaded every 15 seconds, so it needs to be somewhat efficient.Currently I am just loading htmltext using loadvars, but the problem is that I can't align the 3 columns.[code]

How does one go about putting a table into a flash document, that is controlled by an html page on the server? I've searched everywhere but I've only found a few that charge for the service. I know there must be a simple way of accomplishing this.

is it possible to get <tables> from a external HTML file to load in flash? I've searched google like crazy and everywhere I see they say it can't load the tables from the external HTML file..
Is there maybe a way to cheat in this? or make something that will look the same?

I can't figure out for the life of me why I can't get this to select all tables. If I select a specific table it works..
[Code]...
It seems like this should be working because in the documentation it says, "If a result expression is * then all columns of all tables are substituted for that one expression. " here is the docs. [URL]

I am using a html parser [URL].. to render several tables into a movieclip.My problem is: as it takes some time to render, the only one actually being added to the movieclip is the last one. I would use a timer, but that means I would need to call a function, and I am using a "for" loop to build the movielips. Is there a way to say "wait for x seconds before continuing processing" in ActionScript3?

I want to basiclly create a spot the differance game but instead of the user being able to just click on side of the pictures to get the answer, i want them to click on one picture and than the other picture to get the answer. So basiclly they have to click on the picture on the left and than on the right to mark something as a answer which would link both pictures. Or another example, is linking two tables. If i had two tables up and the objective was for the user to link one line of the table to another on the other table, it would link and draw a link from one side to the other showing the link.

I have a flash project that connect with a server. I get all data from the server as raw tables as XML. So I have to do the server logics client side. (Don't ask why!)
I have looked for a framework or some code base that have solved this. A framework that can do mapping of keys asf. Basically a frame work that stores the data and handles retrieving of the data like SQL.
Ie. I can get user with the userid without iterating through all the instances. This gets more complex when you have more id in the same table.
So is there a data framework for flash out there?
(the HTML 5 sqlLight would be great if more browsers supported it)

I'm using a font that has a kerning table with a TextField object to display text. However, it appears the kerning table is never being used.[code]I figured kerning=true would force the text field to abide by the font's kerning table. If I use the same font with the new Flash text rendering engine it seems to respect the kerning tables as expected, but at this point we can't switch to the new rendering engine.

I have an action script that reads a map and the information on it and then allows me to search by name and returns the coordinates of that name.The script is compiled and executed via a local web page that I open and the map is on a web site.Anyway, I am trying to figure out where the action script is storing the information so that I can dump it to a flat file to share.If I close the web page, the information is gone and I need to re-scan the map which can take up to 4 hours.I looked in the cache directory on my hard drive and the infomration is not being saved there that I can find which leads me to believe that it's being stored in my computers memory or a temporary table.My experience is with VBA, not action scripts, so I am not sure if theres a way to locate where the information is being stored and retrieve it to write to the flat file since I can't write it into the code to export the flat file for me.

I'm loading an XML file into a dynamic text field. The information needs to look like a table, meaning that there are distinct columns. Here's basically what I need:
Code:
Item 1 Some Info Time
Item 36 Some more Info Time
Right now, I'm accomplishing this by inserting the correct amount of whitespace like this:
ActionScript Code:
for (i = 0; i < maxLength - myString.length; i++){
myTextField.htmlText += " ";
}
This works fine, but only with mono space fonts which are ugly. Is there another/better way to accomplish this?

I'm building a Flash website with database information with php>mysql>xml>Flash mx 2004. I'm having some major problems!I need to retrieve information of different tables in mysql, and was worried about performance issues.The first query gets the whole model list...The second query will be performed after a model is clicked. Something like: select * from modelinfo where modelID=modelIDinFlash.
The third query is what I have a lot of trouble with! This has to run on the same time or immediatly after the second query. It reads the picture urls and id's from that particular model. I need the filenames for the picture viewer.But everytime I try this third query, the site becomes very slow and have problems displaying the model info.NOW I have a temporary solution: in the first table I have a field which states how much pics each model has, and this number Flash uses to build the nr buttons. But this is not a very solution since I want to keep everything dynamic. I also want to build a drag and drop function... something like a shopping cart. For that to work, every picture must have an unique ID.

This article on Livedocs says you should add the database name in front of tables.[URL]..My question is, should I do that everywhere where a table name appears or only once?In this query: select T1.col,T2.col from T1 left join T2 on T1.id=T2.id order by T2.order;
Should I add main.T1 and main.T2 everywhere or just after for, the first time: select T1.col,T2.col from main.T1 left join main.T2 on T1.id=T2.id order by T2.order;

Using FMX:I have a scene in which a robot runs around an "arena". It has two bump sensors. When a bump sensor comes into contact with the arena, it registers a collision with that sensor, and backs up and moves accordingly.
I already have code for precisely locating the position of the sensor when it hits something.What I want to do is:Have the robot run through the arena for a while, and everytime it bumps into an object (there are "rocks" in the arena), to write that exact location (x,y) to a list of some sort, or perhaps an array. Idealy I would like to write each value to an external text file.
This is where the cool stuff comes in. I am going to use the newly created "bump map" to tell the next robot where not to go.I just can't think of a good way to make a giant list of variables like I would need here. If only I could save the traces for these variables...

1. Dynamically resizing screen elements to fit dynamic text: I've been loading data into Flash via XML files and dynamically populating Movie Clips with the data. How can I make the movie clip expand to match the size of the data loaded? Maybe there's a different approach to this as well?2. Stacking Movie Clips: When I load data into movie clip elements, I'd like to be able to stack them, one on top of the other, i.e. creating a table and filling the cells with the data elements. How do you tell Flash to start the next movie based on the lower left corner of the previous clip? How about if they were dynamically sized?I don't ask for much do I?Also, I'm in the Chicago, IL area and I'm looking for a tutor.

I am trying to save the information for a layout of movie clips on my stage. I am using the sqlite functionality in order to be able to save the layout to the local database. Each layout consists of several movie clips. My plan was to store pertinent information regarding these movie clips (such as x and y position) in order to be able to reload some new clips in the exact same place.
My problem here is that I want to create just one row in my database for each layout, but I want one column in that row to store the information for each of those clips (in a single row). Is there some kind of nested table functionality in sqlite?6564

We've got a green screened video playing in a flash movie over top of our html content.when the movie ends, flash uses external interface .api to call a javascript function which swaps the flash movie out with a 5 x 5 pixel flash movie (rewrites the <div>).this works and you can interact with the html content after the flash movie in all browsers except firefox.anyone know of any work-arounds or is there a better way of handling flash over html in this fashion?

I was wondering if anyone has came up with a way to float html elements, with some content, over .swf without triggering any flash events.
In my case the problem is I have flash map, and drop down menu on top of it.
I simplified this into the following example:

If you mouseover any elements in gray box, you will see that stuff behind it, in a flash file, triggers hover effects.

I was wondering if it is possible to create a flash movie that rotates values that are stored in HTML. For example if i have these 3 containers:
<div style="display:none">
<img src="someimage1" />
<span class="text1">text1</span>[code].....
I want to have some flash movie rotate these values every 10 seconds. I don't want to program it hard into flash, it has to be variable. It has to display the first set, then after 10 sec the second, and so on.Maybe if it is possible something that stops the toggle, and skip to just the second, or just the third.I also don't want to use javascript to do this (jQuery etc.), because this conflicts with another timer on the website.Is there a way of doing this?

I have a piece of Flash on an HTML page that when you hover over it, it expands out to reveal more information.There are text links that it expands over, however in everything but IE, when it's not expanded those links are still covered by the Flash making them unclickable.I have the Flash piece in a separate DIV wmode set to transparent.

when you go to the home.html page an animation will play from start and then stop at the end of it. However, for all other pages i.e contact.html aboutus.html we need the animation to skip to the end straight away and not to play the whole animation through. I was thinking this would be controlled by a variable or some kind of external text file ect. Basically in the first frame the actionscript needs to basically say
"if this html page is aboutus.html then go to the last frame and stop" and with the index page it would say "if this html page is index.html then keep playing"

I have HTML + CSS text. I need some lib with simple function like "Render String Var conteining HTML" So no external files (like in flash lib called HTMLwraper you just have to play your SWF on top of HTML). dinamic! I give it string it renders It into some conteiner (not as a bitmab but as if it was real HTML dynamically rendered in flash). (And I need real HTML + CSS support not what normal rich text block gives us)I am going to use it in with Flex (Flash Builder) so I like MXML component model but even pure flash AS3 will workout.It should be Free and Opensource (any license like GPL, LGPL etc will be ok).So Is out there such flashflex library for HTML + CSS dynamic rendering (rfom given String or XML)?
