does anyone know of a script that will take up to 500 words per conversion, or does anyone know a application that will be able to do this? unlimited amount of words would even be better.
For a rather complex search function I need to get the first letter of each word entered into an input field. At first glance this may not seem like a big problem if every word is neatly seperated by a space.
Although people can enter whatever they want into the field I only want to work with the words that start with a-z or A-Z.
I'm having a bit of trouble figuring out how I can determine if a character in the string falls into this selection. One of the possibilities is to use charCodeAt(), but that's rather rough. I can walk through the string using indexOf() but I may have trouble finding the next word if characters other than a space come into play.

Say I have a string like: Super "big hamburger"notice the 'accidental' double space after super) What I want to get out of it is: Super big Hamburgerhich I later decrease to: s b h
I am making a game where random letters and words are generated into movieclips, thats the background. I built it using arial as my font, however I then decided to go with a fixed width font to make sizing the movieclips to the words much more straightforward. Yesterday this worked fine, the font i am using (Liberation Mono) is installed on my computer, all the textboxes which use this font have the character embedding on them, and I have not changed any of the movieclips, only non-relevant code. So I run it up again today and none of the words appear. Thinking it might be some code changes I made I go thourhg tracing out everything, only to find the wrds are being generated, and written to the textbox absolutely fine. I switch back to Arial just as a check and bang it works again.
Need regular expression that will verify if all the letters in the word "cat" were also in the word "coating" in the proper sequence? So for the word "coating", the RegEx will test true for "cat" but false for "act".
I'm trying to create a function in FMX that validates a field for numbers and letters only, i.e. no special characters. I know how to check for number strings and so on but trying to check for letters in a string?
I used to have a PHP function that did this for my password field (below) and I would like to do something similar in Flash[code]....
is it possible to script in flash so that you can have smoething like the enigma machine?ike have an input text box where you input a letter or words then have another output box where the translated work or letters would come out? and if so, can anyone provide me with the actionscript?or would i have to venture into Dreamweaver?
I have an Array of objects that each have a Name and a Score. I can sort the Array with '.sortOn()' by the object's Name or the Score, but when I sort by the Score, if some Names have the same Score, they don't list Alphabetically within that Score. The following code shows what I mean. The Names with a Score of 50 are together when listed by Score, but they are not Alphabetical. How do I combine both ways of sorting?
I would like to restrict user input to numbers only between letters. for example: the user is allowed to input "a2b", but "2ab" or "ab2" isn't allowed.
What would be the best way to simply take a string like
var myString:String = "Thi$ i$ a T#%%Ible Exam73@"; and make myString = "thiiatibleeam"; or another example var myString:String = "Totally Awesome String"; and make myString = "totallyawesomestring";
how to make Flash MX process numbers or letters written in a textfield one by one? For example, if you write 2463 into a textfield, it would make a calculation like 2+4+6+3 and print the result on screen.
I'm doing the finishing touches on my games. I want to keep track of and display the level (waveCount) and display it in a dynamic text box. However, AS isn't allowing me to convert the number into a string.

I am currently trying to make a financial calculator that will calculate loan payments. However, I am having trouble converting the final product into a currency format.
I have seen that tutorial on Flashkit, but it has to be one of the hardest-to-read tutorials I have ever seen. Has anyone tried this, and if so, do they know a good way to handle this problem?
if the title of this post is misleading.I have a slider that outputs a number from 0 to 10 which is backwards from what i need. so when its 0 i need it to be 10. when its 1 i need it to be 9. when its 8,2. ect is there a function in as3 for converting these numbers?

I get this out put (each row is a different element) and I don't know how to convert it in to a readable value.
it should be number with 9-10 digits. from what I have seen in other sites regarding this specific data (this is the value of the tempo in a midi file) - it looks something like this: "tempo is 06 96 27 (in hexa format)"
these values are ByteArray type. how do I convert them to the readable numbers (or perhaps they contain text)?
Or... how do you XOR doubles without getting integer results? I am using Actionscript 3.0 and found the following:
var a:Number = 3.000000004; var b:Number = 29.999999999; trace ("a: " + a); //3.000000004[code]..........
Clearly, the XOR operation is converting my Numbers into ints. I am a bit surprised by this and don't exactly understand the reason behind it. But I do know that other bitwise operations will also change Number into int, so I am not that surprised.Be that as it may, is there a way to XOR doubles (aka Numbers) without having them get truncated to integers?I used the above XOR originally for performance optimization (these number switches are executed millions of times in an array).I assumed if I skipped the temporary variable, I would see a speed increase.Alas, if the Number data gets changed to int, it is all for naught.
public static function reversePairs(values:Vector.<Number>):void { //1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 -> 5, 6, 3, 4, 1, 2 var l:int = values.length;[code].........
What i want to do is to allow a user to input a time of when the alarm should sound. However, when i press like "2" or any number i get "22" instead of just "2".Also, is there a way to stop people from entering letters along with this piece of code?[code]
I'm working a project for school in which I'm using the sound spectrum. Only problem is, I only know Action Script 2, which does not use it. I'm currently using this code to create sound waves and it works fine.
var url:String = "[URL]"; var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url); var s:Sound = new Sound(); s.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler); s.load(request); var song:SoundChannel = s.play(); [Code] .....
How to turn the sound into numbers (which are then usually used to draw waves).
In the order listed above, I get the following trace when I export via Flash CS3 (9.0) on my PPC mac: number
boolean true true
[code]....
The same exact FLA file, unmodified, gives the following trace output on 2 different intel macs (one mac pro, one imac) using Flash CS3 (9.0).
number boolean false false
[code]....
have a clue why this is giving falses for statements such as "(Number(435/100)==4.35))", "(435/100==4.35)" or "(Number(input_txt.text)==4.35000)" but ISN'T giving a false for (Number(input_txt.text)==(435/100)) (NOTE: input_txt.text is an input field which contains the string 4.35) I'm expecting the latter since they're generally intel chipsets too??
Note: once i compile the code on my PPC mac, intel macs that run the SWF (but don't recompile the FLA) do return the correct booleans that match the PPC output.
so i search for keywords ofc, but...doing this isn't really my thing:input.text.indexOf("spam") != -1 && input.text.indexOf("more") ! -1 && ... etc I'd like to make it some what like:input.text.indexOf(<database>) != -1
im going through ASDG, page by page, and learning everything from scratch. he's explaining datatypes, i.e. strings, numbers, booleans, arrays, etc...i get that. then he goes into explaining how to convert datatypes from numbers to strings using "toString" , and then strings to numbers using "Number()"...and then later, strings to booleans and stuff. My question is this. where someone would want to turn a number into a string or a string into a number? and how would someone even turn a string into a number? i dont understand how that works.
I want to generate a variable number of random numbers less than 16 with no duplicate numbers
Ive posted the fla, and what i'm doing is generating a random number and putting it into an array then using a for loop to cycle through the array for each new random number to check if its already there. if it is, then i want to regenerate that number.
if you test the fla you'll see that all i get in my array is some lovely zero's and i sort of know why this is, but don't know how to stop it.
I am trying to convert a string having numbers to an integer.
//15 9's are there var str:String="999999999999999" var res:Number = new Number(str);
But it is not able to convert correctly as the the var res now has the value 100000000000000000. I know that the number has 52 bits of memory, then why is it not able to do the conversion?
