ok, im about to pull ALL my hair out trying figure the tree model for accessing xml nodes in flash. just when i think i have it figured out...i don't.my XML file...
A web service return to my flex3 client this custom exception: <SOAP-ENV:Fault xmlns:ro="urn:Gov2gLibrary" xmlns:SOAP-ENV="[URL]" xmlns:xsd="[URL]" xmlns:xsi="[URL]" xmlns:HNS="[URL]" xmlns:SOAP-ENC="[URL]" xmlns:v1="[URL]"> <faultcode>E2gError</faultcode> <faultstring>abc</faultstring> <detail><HNS:ROException> [Code] .....
This is obviously a part of the FaultEvent object I get when the remote call fail, so I'm trying to access "T2gMsg" subnode values like this: protected function onFaultEvent(e:FaultEvent):void { var obj:Object = e.fault; var err:XMLList = obj.element.detail.children()[0].children(); // now I have in err the "Messages" list, subnode of ROException, // so I should cycle to read one message at time: for each (var x:XML in err.children()) { //? }
How to read ID, Severity etc values. I think something like "x.ID" should work but it's not, while x.child("ID") or x.elements("ID") return null. What can I do?
I seem to have an array scope issue. I have a global variable; var itemConnect:Array = new Array(); Which is initialized at the start. I then have a function to populate it as a 2-d array:
[code]...
It seems to have scope access to just one of each of the [i] nodes, so [1][2], [1][3], [1][4] are missing - only the last [j] element appears. What is the correct way of doing this? I also don't know the exact size of the array at the start which may be an issue.
I need to loop through every item within my XML. It's pretty big and subdivided and I can't re-do the system.Is there a way to access items without using the names of the tagsSomething like:_myXML[i][j][k][l][m].name ?instead of:_dockXML["tag1"][i]["tag2"][j]["tag3"][k ]["tag4"][l]["tag5"][m].namei, j, j, l and m all being nested loops to access all the items? :/The problem is that if use the name I have to use more conditionals and the like because of the way it's structured.
I can access the attribute, but if i am selecting "Thread Works" i want only access <product catalog="Thread Works"> with children node , for additem to array collection
What I need is for each of the nodes highlighted in green to return the child Nodes. Example: when I move the mouse over the menu Indoor lighting, the results should be: Indoorlighting | LED 10W> 3W LED> LED 6W
For those unfamiliar with tree structures, tree structures are usually dynamic lists where every node has a pointer to two other nodes. They are arranged so it makes for faster searching and stuff and are very useful in programming languages that offer direct access to heap memory. Although I don't know if there would be benefits of making tree structures in AS would be of any help but I decided to have a go at it anyway. Since there are no pointers in flash I tried to just replace pointers to nodes with nodes themselves. Such things usually work in java I think because the language just automatically makes pointers for variables.
So, I have a Vbox names isThisVBoxAwesomeOrWhat that contains another VBox that containst two text fields.Now, further in the code I make a plane out of it so I can make a 3D object out of it, here is the snippet:[for i in totalPlanes] ...
var material:MovieMaterial = new MovieMaterial(isThisVBoxAwesomeOrWhat, true, true, true); ... plane = new Plane(material, isThisVBoxAwesomeOrWhat.width, isThisVBoxAwesomeOrWhat.height, 10, 10);[code].....
So now I have my scene filled with planes made out of VBox composite as I wanted. I also have those planes in a linkedList, and what I would like to do now is to "SOMEHOW" access each individual VBox and it's composites for each individual plane.Something like this (obviously doesn't work! Just an example):
linkedList.node.data.VBox.VBox.Text[0]
so I could modify parameters on the fly. Or maybe I'm totally wrong on this and I should have as many Vbox'en as I have planes and id each individually. Whatever the case I can't figure out how to access children of the parent in this mxml example.
I have a simple search form on my site. It allows users to pull data from a database and then display that data. So the user would select the data set they want, a PHP script queries the database, and then puts that data into a XML file. This part is working fine. However I can not seem to get the data to display correctly in Flash. I tried the tutorial on this site for Flash and XML, and it works, but only displays one result. The problem I believe is that all the child nodes have the same tag. My XML file would look something like:
Basically I pulll xml data into flash and most comes in, but only the first set will show the name, after that it goes to "undefined". Secondly, I can't pull in the info.
Here is my XML. I have removed A LOT of what is actually in the XML file I am working with, for simplicity: PHP Code: <State><Center ID="BOCC"> <Dispatch><Log> <LogType>Traffic Collision - Ambulance Responding</LogType> [Code] .....
I need ONLY the text of the LogType's (FROM CENTER "BOCC" ONLY) to show up in a list component or trace the output.. doesn't matter.. I can formulate it myself.. I just need to only grab this specific data. I do not want to see any other results (e.g. from SOMEOTHERCENTER). Like show: Traffic Collision - Ambulance Responding Traffic Hazard Pedestrian On A Highway The actual file I'm working with (and can not alter) is [URL].
I've been following tutorials for reading in xml data, but I'm having trouble referencing the different nodes. In the following example I'm just trying to view.[code]No errors or anything.I don't get it. The xml loads in the first place, (trace(xml)), but I can't access the individual nodes.
this is supposed to return an XMLList of Groups anywhere in the xml. This works fine if I have more than one , but fails if there is only one .Am I wrong in my assumption that it should return one? I trace xml..Group.length() and it is 0, but the Group is definately in the xml.Any ideas on how you can get one or more Group nodes from my xml?
I'm using the weather.com web service to request current conditions for a location, and am parsing the current temperature, feels like temp and current condition icon to my Flash application. The Current Temperature and Feels Like Temperature nodes are nested within NowItems -> NowItem while WeatherToday is further along in the feed. I've written the following in AS3[code]...
I know this has been asked right before im doing it, but i have a slightly different problem. I have read all the tutorials and stuff out there, but i cant figure this out, call me stupid if you want i have an xml structure like this:
I have a flash ecard that I am working on and had one of those "wouldn't it be cool if..." moments!
I would like find out if it is possible to:
1) load in an xml file that contains several names 2) Load each one of those names into a predefined movie clip which would display the name 3) randomize the placement of each name in a given shape area so that the Movie clips with names would randomly fill in to make a specific shape.
Flash 8 duplicating movie clips and setting 3 nodes from XML. I am trying to read in an xml with 3 parameters; 2 links and one text field for a caption. What am I doing wrong this time?
[Code]...
I am trying to have "bMC" load into and repeater for however many XML props there are. within "bMC" are two MC's that on click would open window or grab file and One Text field which would load in caption. For some reason the "bMC" isnt even loading at all. Attached is the .Fla
Is it possible for Flash or possibly Adobe AIR to have access to a local Access database?
I will have either a Flash EXE or AIR application running on a local PC (WinXP). The PC will also have a local Access database. I need my Flash application to get the data from this Access database. How would I do this?
I doubt it can be done with Flash or AIR alone (someone prove me wrong or right), but is there an option for some middle-man application to access the data base and send it on to Flash? How would this work?
Or could I read the MDB file into Flash and parse it myself? is there a library for this?
I'm trying to work with XML in flash here and ran into an issue. I need to collect all the nodes in an XMLList that contains a certain childnode with a certain value. For example, from the XML below I just want to get the ''product'' nodes that have 1 as a value for ''amount'', i.e product 3 and 5.
