ActionScript 2.0 :: Concatenate A Name And Variable Number?
Nov 20, 2007
I'm trying to concatenate a name and variable number. Then trace it, so answer3 should output from my loaded xml data "water". Instead all I can get to trace is the word "answer3". If I type "answer3" in the trace I get the variable im looking for. If I type [this.getCorrectAnswerNumber()] in the trace I get number 3. How do I go about concatinating the word answer and a dynamic number.
Heres my code...
Code:
trace("answer"+[this.getCorrectAnswerNumber()]);

I'm starting out with AS3 and migrating some old code. I have several dynamic variables in AS2 but they are using _root which isnt available in AS3.How would I go about switching the following variable to AS3? I have at least a dozen different variables similar to this one.
Code:
for (i = 0; i < (k-1); i++) {
pivot = _root["AI"+i][i][i]; // existing AS2 code

When I use the code below the "!" never appears in the output text field. I tried removing nameInput.text and then the "!" will appear. But with nameInput.text in the code, any string I try to add after it does not appear.

I'm trying to make a function which ideally you tell it to go to the next level and it sorts everything out to transition to the next level for you. Currently I use this to get from level 1 to 2...

Also I need to make it so it checks if levelText == whatever on press of the Enter key, as well as the mouse click on GoButton.

I have this code to push "Variable1" in to MyArray:
ActionScript Code:
_root.MyArray.push(Variable1);
Note:
"Variable1" is a number stored as a string.
When "Variable1" changes, the code above is called upon to add the new "Variable1" value in to MyArray. Then I have this code which is called upon to find the sum of all the values within "MyArray":
ActionScript Code:
for (i=0; i<=_root.MyArray.length-1; i++) {
_root.MyArray_Total = _root.MyArray_Total + MyArray[i];
}
My problem is that rather than adding the values contained within MyArray (as if they were numbers), the values are being concatenated instead.
Example:
If MyArray values were 1, 2, 3
I want the MyArray_Total to = 5
But instead... MyArray_Total = 123
I tried making a new variable named "Variable1_num", declaring it as a number, making it equal to "Variable1", and then pushing "Variable1_num" in to "MyArray"... but that didnt seem to work either.

It is possible to reference an array inside of an image file name, here's the scenario.
I have a list of images that only differ by the number at the end of the name (for example. orangeimg1.jpg, appleimg2.jpg, strawberryim3.jpg, etc. Is it possible when referencing the image that I could somehow reference the array in the file name rather than repeating the same code over and over again?
I have two different arrays set up one for fruit which has (orange, apple, stawberry) and I have another array with the numbers (1, 2, 3). I have jpg images for each of these combinations but how to I reference that in one line when I'm trying to refer to these images. I thought something like source = "[fruit].img.[number].jpg" would work
Again I've found some information on the web but it doesn't refer to how it would work if I was coding a source for my images.

The course contain ten chapters that all have to report that when a user completed them. When they all are, the status is set
to "completed" for the course. First off the theory behind it:
1. I just completed a chapter.
2. Load a string with then numbers "0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0", one for each chapter. All 0's, no chapter is completed, all 1's, all chapters are completed, you get the picture.
3. Add a 1 for, lets say chapter 5, would look like this "0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0".
4. Check if the course is complete, like this: "1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1", or not.
5. If complete, set status to "complete", if not, set to "incomplete".
In practice:
import flash.external,*;
String(ExternalInterface.call("LMSGetValue, "cmi.suspend_data, TheCourseStatus"));
String(ExternalInterface.call("LMSSetValue, //..add the number "1" to
[code]....
So, after this rant. How do I,
1. Get the string.
2. Add the course number/value to the string
3. Then update the string, and..
4. ..set the appropriate status.
I found out that "I need to concatenate them together with a delimiter so I can separate the string on re-entry", but I don't know how to do that.

I have a submit button that I'm pulling in from XML.
It needs to be XML because it is translated.
Therefore... the length is varying depending on the language.
I simply want to add an arrow to the end of the word using Webdings #4 (it looks like a solid arrow, not like > but solid)..

I have the following code in actionscript 3:
var async:AsyncToken;
async = bridge.retornamenu();
The bridge is a remote object, instantiated. The retornamenu() is the function that I want the remote object open in amfphp.
However the retornamenu() is a dynamic function, which turns another function, but I can not run it at runtime,
example
var stringfunction:String = "retornamenu()" // this name is dynamic.
var async:AsyncToken;
async = bridge.stringfunction;
But this way does not work, not perform the function retornamenu();

Im having an unusual problem tracking the value of a number variable....I have a number stored in a variable that changes up and down from 0 to 1 i.e. 0, 0.1, 0.2, etc, etc. This variable serves as an audio volume that is used with the soundTransform class.Im using the .text property for a text box:
ActionScript Code:
trackVolText_txt.text = Math.floor(_trackVolumes[1] * 10).toString();
And here is my volume down code, there is a volume up section that does the same job but reverse:
ActionScript Code:
function volumeDown(e:MouseEvent):void
{
if(_trackVolumes[1] < 1)[code].....
If I manually type in "10" in the text box to represent full volume so as soon as the .swf file loads it says "10" in the text box, I only get the readings: 10, 1 and 0. If I leave the text box blank, it will then increment and decrement 10,9,8,7,6,etc,etc.
My question is: can I somehow have a value manually typed into the dynamic text box without the above problem happening?

Im running AS2 on Flash CS4 for this: I've found a million posts on similar topics, but none seem to do what I want, even though I feel like its very simple. I've tried a ton of different codes and can't get anything to work. All I want is for Flash to pull a number variable from an external file, lets just say a txt for now. I then want to be able to use this variable for calculations within flash. The only thing I can get to semi-work is having a txt file that says MyNum=5 and then putting the following in flash: loadVariables("Test.txt" , _root);
If I trace the variable "MyNum" it will output the right value, but its as a string no matter what I do. My most recent attempt to get it to be a number is to put the following on a later frame:
var NewVar:Number = MyNum;
var NewVar2:Number = NewVar + 1
trace(NewVar2);
Despite hardcoding multiple variables to be numbers, the output I get is 51, which means its still displaying as a string. My other issue is that you have to wait several frames before the variable is recognized. Do you have to wait numerous frames to use these loaded variables? If so, is there a way I can code it so that flash will just wait until it has the variable before moving on? I can't seem to get any loading function to work for it, but I don't just want to pull my next action down the timeline some arbitrary number of frames and hope its enough for flash to pull that number from the file.
