I have been able to successfully build an xml video player that can play videos that all have a unique description attribute but I would like to have the user click on a title and it play through multiple videos while that one title is highlighted. Here is the code that I have so far:
var xml:XML = new XML();
xml.ignoreWhite = true;

View 1 Replies My plan for my website is to have music tracks pulled from an XML file which act as the background music for the various .swfs loaded by the menu buttons. I.e. hit 'Home', and it takes you back to the home .swf and plays the appropriate music. I want to do this through XML rather than attaching the music directly to the .swf to cut down on load time (syncing isn't a concern), as I can't seem to retain audio quality without bulking up the .swf significantly.
I'm encountering two problems: one is that with the current code, the music only plays once, and doesn't loop. The other is that I want the functionality to play one song as an intro, and then continue to loop another. I.e., hit the home button, intro plays, followed by the looping section, and never returns to the intro unless you hit home again. I can't seem to figure out how to manage either of these things short of creating a unique function for every single button.
Here's the code I'm using:
var my_songs:XMLList;
var my_total:Number;
var my_sound:Sound;
var my_channel:SoundChannel;

I'm trying to cut down the amount of code I type to complete a project. Using things like ?: and &&= over the typical if statements. Is there a way to compare a single variable to a group of variables? example...

is there a short way to check if var1==var2,var3,var4?

I have an array being generated with numbers from an XML file. Then I have the function 'maxF' that returns the maximum number inside that array. I need to get programaticaly other nodes inside the same XML file [where all these numbers are coming from] to print the date [which is a node on top of the number node]
var a:Array = []; for (var i = 1; i<=15; i++) { var RootNode = getXml.firstChild; eval("price"+i).htmlText = ""+RootNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[4].childNodes[2].firstChild+"
i get this error when i retrieve an XML that only has 1 node (no repeating nodes) and i try to store in an ArrayCollection. -When I have MORE than 1 "name" nodes...i do NOT get an error. My test show that XMLListCollection does NOT work either.
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert "XXXXXX" to mx.collections.ArrayCollection.
this error occurs as the line of code:
myList= e.result.list.name;
Why can't ArrayCollection work with a single node? I'm using this ArrayCollection as a dataprovider for a Component -is there an alternative I can use that will take BOTH single and repeating nodes as well as work as a dataprovider?
code:
[Bindable]
private var myList:ArrayCollection= new ArrayCollection();
private function getList(e:Event):void{
var getStudyLoungesService:HTTPService = new HTTPService();

could anyone help me modify the code for these checkbox components? right now, the SUBMIT button checks which ones of the checkboxes are checked and gets their label, then writes the appropriate labels in a dynamic text box.[code]For the program I am doing, I need to have a maximum of 6 checkmarks and each one of the checked label must go into its own variable. (see gray part of the swf) I would also like the labels to appear in the right order, right now it's inversed.

I have an AdvancedDataGrid tree with a ArrayCollection as its dataprovider. Now, for instance, i drag a leaf from one node to another node. To catch the event I'm adding a Listener to dragComplete.

My Problem: I want to know the new node where the leaf was dropped. Actually i would have expected that in the event there is a property like dropParent. This is not the case.
I have a tree im my mxml that uses a XMLListCollection as dataProvider. Itīs XML is like:

I thought this was going to be easy! I would like to search an XML file for a particular data set i.e. set of nodes depending on a passed variable. However, storing a subset of my XML file via Code:var gallery = this.firstChild; and then searching 'gallery' as you would an array-using a for()-doesn't work since this.firstChild isn't returning an array

View 9 RepliesThere will be a "pool" of SWF files- I would like to create a "shell" swf that will load an external XML file that will determine which of the files in the "pool" the shell will play. I guess this would be called an XML-driven SWF playlist.Forgive me if my terminology is rather primitive- again, I'm new to XML (I'm an animator by trade.)
View 1 RepliesI followed along with Lee Brimlow's video playlist tutorial utilizing the list component and XML - easy enough. I'm looking to add another level of complexity to a playlist which would involve some sort of checkbox or radio buttons associated with each item in a playlist. You could then choose to display only 2 or 3 videos of a 10 video playlist, for example.I'm not expecting anyone to write the script out for me. However, I would be very appreciative if anyone could steer me in the right direction to get started. I've been searching for things like "selectable playlist" but that of results in a playlist that allows you to select which item to display.
