ActionScript 2.0 :: Date Object With If/else?
Mar 15, 2004
i'm using the date object to pull up different movies at different times of day. but can't figure out the syntax for the if/else statement to allow for time frames. this is what i want in english.
play movie A between 8am-1pm then play movie B between 1pm-5pm. then
play movie C between 5pm-8pm then
play movie D between 8pm-midnight etc
I actually want 5 different time frames for 5 different movies.here's my actionscript attempt.
on (release) {
now = new Date();
now.getHours()[code]...
this only works for two different time frames. greater than/less than.

I've got a php backend which delivers a time (e.g. '07:00:00'). This time is recognized as a string but I need it as a Date. So what I need is: Convert a string '07:00:00' to a Flex Date object. Is there a way to do this (without using regular expressions)?

Do you know any way to compare a date to a range of date using the Date class in as2.
For example i want to know a given day (11-12-2009) is among the start and end date of a given range (11-01-2009 to 11-20-2009).

I could be overlooking something, but Flash / AS3 seems to be missing basic date formatting functionality. How do I get a formatted string from a Date ? There's a few options like .toLocaleDateString() and .toUTCString(), but that a bit limiting, to say the least. So, how do I format a Date object in AS3?

I am trying to find a way to use the date object to check the day of the month. If is the 23rd then play if not, do nothing. I looked at the date countdown tutorial, but I don't need to display the information just check the date. even if I hid the countdown info, once I hit the 23rd I am out of luck till the first of the next month, the "alarm" stays. Think of what I need as a date alarm, if it is the 23rd the alrm goes off, if it is not, then it is business as usual (this is tied into an analog clock that is supposed to have a monthly reminder for the 23rd). Getting the clock to work was cake, but I just can't get this "alarm" to work for me.

My FMS client is calling a function (simplified) which gets the offset time in milliseconds of an flv file.According to the docs for creationTime, it should return a Date object containing the time the file was created.I cannot access any properties of the date object in the server script.
Client.prototype.listFiles = function( folderName ) {
var testFile = new File('/streams/folder/fileName.flv');
trace("creationTime: " + testFile.creationTime);

I have a date object and I want to listen to any changes made to it. The changes can be made by either directly assigning another date object
var newDate:Date = new Date(2009,10,9);
date = newDate;
and by using
date.setTime(timeInMilliSeconds)
I tried using BindingUtils.bindsetter:
var myWatcher:ChangeWatcher = BindingUtils.bindSetter(updateDate,date,"time");
private function updateDate(value:Number):void
{
trace(value);
}
but this doesn't seem to work. I wish to know what am I doing wrong or if there is someother way to do this.

I'm trying (and struggling) to get my head around AS3 and am building a flash webpage. I have 2 layers in the timeline, each containing a movie clip matching the page size with instance names backgroundDay and backgroundNight. What I'm wanting is for the background to change for the day and night, so that from 18:00 to 06:00 the alpha of backgroundDay becomes 0 to show backgroundNight behind.

I have a XML file with a few concert dates. In my flash/AS3 file, I would like to show only the up coming event, relative to current date. Like this:
Event 01: 30-05-2010
Event 02: 02-06-2010
Event 03: 05-06-2010
Today is 28-05-2010, so I need to list Event 01. On 01-06-2010 I need to list Event 02. I have the basic AS3 code for listing the XML working, but I'm having trouble filtering the result.

I'm using flash CS4 and actionscript 2.0. I have a situation where I need to locate and check the date of an external file (either .exe or .swf) and return that date string to a variable in flash. I then need to display that date to a piece of dynamic text within the flash file. Is there a function within action script that will check and retrieve the file date of an external file.

I'm trying to determine the difference in time between todays date and a future date. I only need to determine how many months and days it is between todays date and this future date. Anyone know of any prebaked scripts anywhere for determining what todays date is and subtracting it from the end date would be? [code]So if today's date is less then the end date I'd like to determine how many months and days are left until the end date is reached and display the number of months and days until that end date.

I have an mx:DateField in my Flex UI that has a formatString="dd.mm.yyyy" attached to it. However, the initial value for that field may not be in the format specified/defined for the DateField (due to legacy reasons). So, currently, if I just set that value (text) on the DateField, the field is shown empty. I think because it fails to accept the value in a format different than what's configured.
