ActionScript 3.0 :: Concatenating Variables - End Up With PlaylistArray[0] Containing The String "playlistVariables. Track0"?
Jun 12, 2009I'm having trouble getting the following to work:
I have declared an array "playlistArray" which will hold a series of track names (for an mp3 player.)I have declared a URLVariable "playlistVariables" which loads the data from an external text file.If I brute-force assign values from playlistVariables to playlistArray, everything works fine:
playlistArray[0] = playlistVariables.track0;
If I test this with trace(playlistArray[0]) I get the track name I am looking for. But obviously I don't want to brute-force assign all those values, I want to use a "for" loop:
for (var i:int = 0; i<maxTracks; i++) {
playlistArray[i] = ["playlistVariables.track"+(i)];
trace(playlistArray[i]);
When I do this,I end up with playlistArray[0] containing the string "playlistVariables. track0" rather than the value of playlistVariables.track0.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Concatenating A Class Name?
Sep 30, 2009I have the following function which returns a string: cues.getCurrentCue(); returns: "Definition_1" Definition_1 is the class name of a movie clip. I would now like to do something like this:

def_mc = currentDev;
addChild(def_mc);
But I get the following error: 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method currentDev.
ActionScript 3.0 :: XML Get Node By Concatenating @ With String?
Oct 10, 2011I need to get an XML node by using this syntax:
[pseudo code]
xml.node["subnode"].@string.children();
[real code where _xml is XML]
_xmlList:XMLList = _xml.cases["case"][@id == event.target._id].files.children();
And yes, case is a reserved word - therefore the brackets and quotes.
event.target._id is a string, but I can't seem to figure out how to concatenate the @ (at sign) with a string to get the attribute (or the node that corresponds to the attribute).
I've tried _xml.cases["case"].(@id == event.target._id).files.children();
But it doesn't work. How am I totally off in the wrong direction?
ActionScript 2.0 :: ComboBox Value Concatenating Instead Of Adding?

Is there a way to convert the data from the comboBox to an integer so that when I add .35 +1 I'll get 1.35?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Stop Flash From Concatenating Strings?
Jan 6, 2011I have an external interface call which I need to pass several values to. Each value has an indentifier string and the value itself.
Code: ExternalInterface.call("submitIUR", answers +"promo", promo+ "url", nextUrl); The problem is that when I pass this through to the javascript function, flash concatenates the identifier strings. So for example if promo is 12345 when passed through the "url" indentifier gets tacked on the end so I get 12345url.
Is there an easy way to separate out the variables being passed through to stop the strings being tacked on to the variables?
IDE :: Concatenating Text In Dynamic Field Of MovieClip
Dec 1, 2009I'm writing a menu generating script. It's suppose to display arrays
and any inner arrays.
Ex:["test item",["item 1",["item 2","item 3"]],"item 4"];
These movie clips should be displayed if the actionscript is correct.:
test item
item 1 <---this of course, has a following subarray
item 4
and the submenu should display:
item 2
item 3
I run the script and it see's the inner array items ["item 2", "item 3"] and shows them in the next submenu -FINE---but what I get in the main menu to my surprise is 'run-on text' in the Dynamic field of that movieclip. ex:
test item
item 1; item 2; item 3 <---? seems to concatonate inner items in text field
item 4
I only want to see text "item 1" ....not the items associated with it as well.
(they are already displayed in submenu)
Code:
for (var i = 0; i < menuArray.length; i++) {
var menuItemName = "mc_menu_item_" + i;
if (typeof(menuArray[i]) == "object") {
this["mc_menu_box"].attachMovie("h_menu_middle_sub", menuItemName, tempLevel);

Mar 21, 2012I have an empty SWF that's sole purpose is to call loadMovieNum and start the project. Each loaded movie has a few variables defined within them - unique to those loaded SWFs. Instead of declaring all the variables in each SWF can I declare all of them in one place, in the first frame of the empty loader it all starts from? I'm thinking I can then declare a variable which each loaded movie can increment as needed for me.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Load Data From Different Variables - The New Variables Come Back As Undefined?
Jun 15, 2010I'm writing code that takes data from mysql that's processed by a PHP script. It's actually a bit bizarre, at least to me. Anyway, here's some basic AS3 code that's moving toward what I want to do:
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var urlRequest:URLRequest=new URLRequest("receive.php");
urlRequest.method=URLRequestMethod.GET;[code]....
For some reason, the statement "trace(evt.target.data);" produces a whole pile of garbled text before the actual stuff that it's supposed to show Because of problem #1, I've had to include a throwaway variable at the beginning, otherwise the first variable I try to pass into AS3 comes back as undefined. This causes errors when I run my flash movie in the IDE, but when I run it from the browser it doesn't seem to have any effect.But this is the strangest thing of all whenever I make any changes to the database (and subsequently try to load data from different variables), the new variables come back as undefined. For example, let's say that I add another entry to the database, and decide to load students 2, 3, and 4 instead of 1, 2, and 3. When I do that, any new data I've added comes back as undefined, even though when I view the PHP output in my browser, it looks just fine.
And now for the REALLY bizarre part: I'll copy that output, paste it into my PHP script as an echo statement, comment everything else out, and my flash movie runs fine. Even though the output from the PHP script is exactly the same, it gives me errors.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Array Variables, Variables Not Working Correctly?
Jul 11, 2011There is a bird, and you control its upwards movement with a key. It has thrust, gravity, it works fine. The problem is I have a bunch of icicles that come at the bird that he is supposed to avoid. I tried this first with math random to use as an x coordinate and than move across the screen, but the icicles had the same x-coordinates sometimes. I tried does not equal(!=) but that doesn't work. I made an array and each number that came out of the array I assigned a different variable. This works fine. I put this variable into the x-coordinate such as mc.x=((n)*60)+480. I did this for five different icicles. All their differnt variables have a different value, and I put them into the same function for each individual video clip, but they still don't go to the right coordinate. Here is the test code just for the initial coordinate of each icicle before it moves...////////////////////////////Quote:
