I have a nested array that contains an image and a string like this;
[{image:"images/image1", text:"one",}, {image:"images/image2", text:"two",},
Is there a way that I can have a sound (mp3) in each part as well?
I needed to convert a string representing an array , like :
Code:
var a:String = "[u,[[a,b],[l,m,r,a,f,g,h],[u]],[c,q],d]"
into a real Array, so I started looking in forums, but I couldn't find it, so I wrote my own

In the below code, "sector" is an indexed array.fsector1, fsector2,fsector3 are Associative arrays.The "gotoAndStop" command doesnt work properly.The last trace command, "curTerr" returns the same value as "curSec",leading me to assume i did not define "curTerr" properly.
Actionscript Code:
function loadmaptest(){ sector = ["fsector1","fsector2","fsector3"] fsector1 = new Array(); fsector1["terrain"] = "grass"; fsector2 = new Array();

I've been putting data into an array via XML, and then selecting at random an image string to load in a pic at random. But whilst doing this, I wanted to remove the String from the Array that I have just used, so I don't get repetition of the same image in the output. I initially thought that pop would remove the string I had just used - But of course it Removes the last value in the Array instead, which doesn't really help.
Ok - so how about randomizing the data once inside the Array, after it has been pulled in from XML!? That way I can load in the 'last' image, and then pop it out! Keeping a randomized selection of images each time 'it' is loaded

How do I join two strings into a movieclip so that it works out to string1_mc.string2_mc i.e.
var monthID = "monthCal"+newMonth
var dayID = "day"+monthArray[newMonth][e].eventDate;
trace(this[monthID]._name) // this works and traces the correct name
trace(this[monthID].calendar_mc.this[dayID]._name); // this does not work.
the dayID is in calendar_mc, which is in the monthID
I am looking for a way to check if any sting of the Array is matched to the string that in the TextField. In the code it should be something like that:

function LookStringArray(){
if (TestArrayTextfield_txt.text == (anyString.TestString)){

This should be fairly simple but I understand why it doesn't work. I am hoping there is a clever way to do the following: I have a string 'movieclip1.movieclip2' I have a container movieclip - Container. Now to evaluate the string normally I would look something like: this.container['movieclip']['movieclip2']
Because clip2 is a child of movieclip. But I would like to parse or evaluate the string with the dot syntax to read the string as a internal path. this.container[evaluatedpath]; // which is - this.container.movieclip.movieclip2 Is there a function or technique to be able to evaluate that string into an internal path?
referencing sound from a nested clip.In my first frame on the root level I have this function:
function snd(iSnd:Sound):void {
var sndV:SoundChannel = iSnd.play(0, 0, sndTrans);
}
On the second frame of a nested clip I have this:
MovieClip(this.root).snd(MovieClip(this.root).loca tionSound);
I don't get any errors, but my sound doesn't play either. The function works fine when I am referencing it from the root level, but unfortunately I can't do that with this particular instance.
I have a very general requirement that seemed very simple: Step 1: Load a new external JPEG image into a MC with a string var encoding a string caption in the URL link (VALUE="../fadeTest.swf?someTextVar=TestCaption") within the EMBED / OBJECT sections. I know how to do this and it semed to work fine. STEP2: When the JPEG is loaded I would like the substituted Text to Fade In over the JPEG. The JPEG should also fade in before the Text. The fade rate should be programmable.

This is nested inside another for loop which creates an array of the movieClip rows. Problem I see them drawn and positioned correctly on the stage but I cant reference any other than the top row in order to change the alpha for example.

I've got a nested array containing a series of 2 element arrays containing an object name, and text related to that object.I've set it up like this:public var names:Array = [["instance name 1", "text for first object"],["instance name 2", "text for second object"], ...]];What I'm trying to do is to have the text related to the object appear in a text box when the object is moved.This is all set up within a class containing code for the drag and drop functions.If I set the text box to show a specific element, such as:MovieClip(parent).text_box.text= names[2][1];it works fine. But I can't get it to create the value for the first bracket from the this.name attribute.I had it working for 2 arrays - one with the name and another with the text where the code was;MovieClip(parent).text_box.text= texts[names.indexOf(this.name)]; (arrays named 'names' and 'texts', text box named 'text_box')I'm hoping there's something similar that I can do for the nested array, but everything I try gives me the #1010 error - term undefined.Is there an easy way to sort this out - or am I better sticking with the 2 array version?
View 6 RepliesI'm trying to access a nested json array
var jsonResponse:Object = JSON.decode(response);
var foo:Object = JSON.decode(jsonResponse.nested);
var bar:Array = foo as Array;
When i inspect foo - its an object with about 50 children objects.I can read the properties of the children objects. However, when i cast foo as an Array it comes back null.I'd prefer to not iterate over each object and push it into an array.
How would I go about sorting an array of nested arrays, based on the contents of one of the nested arrays elements?
var nestedArray1:Array = new Array(0,0,1);
var nestedArray2:Array = new Array(0,0,9);
var nestedArray3:Array = new Array(0,0,7);
