ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash Xml Quiz - Grab A Question / Answers Based On A Variable
Jul 26, 2006
I have an xml doc that has 6 categories that are colors and 4 questions that fall under each category. My question is I'm trying to create a quiz that will grab a question/answers based on a variable between 1-6 from the (6) categories in the xml doc. But the kicker is I want the user to have to choose from a different category if the 1-6 variables are different. And I need to walk down and grab a different question if they have been to blue before or maybe just a random question from the blue or green section.

Anyone know where to start thinking about logic for an XML quiz with multiple correct answers, that when the user gets the question right, that question is removed from the random array of questions so we never need to answer it again?

I'm trying to create a simple quiz that picks questions from an XML file, then checks the answer the user enters against the answers stored in the same XML file. Every time you press blue_btn it should bring up a new question. Right now I'm stuck -- it shows only the last question in the XML file, when I enter the right answer it tells me it's wrong, and when I press blue_btn again nothing happens.

I have this project where I have a quiz template that I am using(as2) and I have everything exactly the way I want it except.that I need for the individual questions to hold a different value from one another.
for example
Question 1 = 10 points
Question 2 = 20 points
so on and so forth
right now I have it so they are an equal percentage of the total (ie 10 questions all are worth 10 points)and I need to change thatunfortunately I am still teaching myself AS but even more unfortunate for me is that I am learning AS3 and this template is AS2 I also have not done much in this vein I have been concentrating more on UI kind of stuff and less on the math side also it makes no difference to me if this is done in AS or XML this file will not be continually updated so it can be a one time deal

I need to put together a really simple flash Quiz for this project I am working on
and I am having a hell of a time figuring out a few key aspects.
1. When working with an array and an xml file, how can I assign the "correct" answer if a user selected the wrong option. Ideally I would love it to say for example " sorry, Egyptians was the correct answer" but would settle for " sorry, 3 was the correct answer" if that is easier to arrange within an array.
2. How can I make it so it marks your first answer and only your first answer (as opposed to how it is now where if you guessed wrong you can keep on guessing until it is right and it will notice the right answer and ignore the wrong)?

I am currently trying to create a multiple choice quiz. Alright, what I want to do is this - I want to create a multiple choice like this, where user click the answer and they will be linked to a feedback page, telling them what is wrong with their answer. Then they can click an "OK" button to proceed to the next scene where there will be the next qns. The reason why I am not putting all in the same scene is because I need to do up a different scenario for each of the qns.
If I were to have ten qns in one scene, I was told it is "no good" by my lecturer. At the end of the ten qns, there will be a grading of points. I want the script to be able to track all correct answers despite all qns being on different scenes. Because I want the grade to show at the evaluation scene. is it possible to capture the answer user has clicked on, store to the array, store in another array as one point if it is a correct answer and click next to go to the next scene for the 2nd qns, not next frame.

For my project i am creating a quiz on the Romans. There are only three questions that the user must answer with three possible answers in frames 3,4 and 5.I want to know the code that would help me to allow a Jpeg (an evaluation of the answer given on each frame) to be placed on frame 6 ready for the user to receive feedback for each answer they have given. So when the user selects an answer, the corresponding jpeg to that answer is placed ready on frame 6 for their arrival after they have answered the third question.

I've got an input field called "question" where you can type whatever you want, an ASK button called "ask" and a response field called "answer". Once you enter a question and hit the ASK button I want flash to randomly reply in the "answer" field with YES, NO, MAYBE, DEFINATELY etc.
Do I need some kind of answers array to store all the answers and then call them at random into the "answers" field? Am I on the right track?

I have an exam which pulls in questions from an XML file and to indicate what the correct answer is you would indicate in the XML as such:
[Code]...
There is one question, that is structured so there are two right answers, but when I add correct="true" to both answers I want as right only one is calculated correctly in the scoring. I thinking I need to make an adjustment in the code that pulls in the XML, but not sure where. Here is the AS code.

I'm trying to access Flashvars that I declare in my HTML from a SWF that gets loaded after an intro animation.
I am able to access one of my Flashvars in the opening SWF just fine, but when the next SWF loads, I'm unable to access my Flashvars.
HTML Code Snippet: Code: Select all<script type="text/javascript" src="js/swfobject2.1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/swffit.js"> </script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/swfaddress.js"> </script>[code].......
Am I not targeting it properly?Alternatively, I've tried storing the flashvars URL in a variable in my root SWF and accessing it from the loaded SWF, but I can't seem to grab it. How would I grab a variable that is declared in my root SWF?

im trying to grab the instance name of something on stage, set it to a variable then remove it.
iv tried:
Actionscript Code:
var something = object1something.removeMovieClip();
that works. problem is im setting variables at runtime depending on a user click.tried this too..
Actionscript Code:
var myvar;object1.onRelease = function() {myvar = this._name;}
tracing this out reveals that it is actually _level0.object1.also tried adding the string "_level0." + object1. still dosen' work.what im trying to do is click on objects. store there instance names into an array then remove them all when i do something else. such as press space.

I am trying to create a email form or a button that will send an email to the users email address that they enter. I want to send them a different email depending on a variable that has been set? For instance I have five backgrounds, and earlier you were asked to choose a background. Once the background was set, so was a variable. Depending on this variable, I would like a different email, with content relative to the chosen background to be sent. How can I go about doing something like this?

I'm trying to send a variable from an HTML into Flash in order to modify it based on the value. I generally know how FlashVars works in AS3, so I did some quick reading for AS2 and made a test swf.
[URL]
In my swf, the first frame only has this code:
Code:
if (_root.tester == undefined) {
var passed:String = "Nothing Passed";
} else {
var passed:String = _root.tester;
}
texty.text = passed;
According to what I've read and what my code is, this should work. It should read the value of video as the value of _root.tester (check the HTML code), yet it's always listed as undefined.

For a site I'm developing with a user login that uses cookies to store the session ID, a separate section of it uses Flash to provide content and such. Is there some way it can access the cookies that were set the by login? The name of the cookie will not the be same every time, as it is randomly generated, as well as its value. I then need to send the name and value of the cookie back to a page on the server to do additional stuff. Anyone know how to do this? Note that I didn't write the Flash interface, an the person who did doesn't know how to do this.

I need to grab values from the querystring and inject them into a getURL(""); snippet that's in the on (release) {} for a button.So if the URL that contains the embedded swf is
[URL]
I'd like to get that otherdomain.com and inject it. Something like
var returnUrl = "";
// do magic querystring getting
getURL(returnUrl);
*Edit: I need to snag the querystring because I don't have access to the embed code. It's being rendered by a third party (Articulate) and loaded into a frame. I do have access to the code that renders the frame html, which is why I figured query string would be the best route, and one button that's used in the presentation.
Note, I live in C# land, not ActionScript land so I most likely butchered the syntax. I just need to get this button working as a one off and I'll probably never deal with it again.BTW, I've seen the abdulqabiz QueryString object that's floating around out there but it kind of seems like overkill, like there should be something baked into the framework for this. I also lack the knowledge of how to incorporate this into my little button on (release) {} event

When I run this code now (with the full code), the Alert box is blank.When I run the application in Flex Debug mode, this is what Flex sees: http:[url]....Below is the Flex and XML code (edited to only show what's not working):

Is there a way (using flash) to grab the raw html from another browser frame? I'd like the following sequence:
Launch my window from [URL]...Launch window from another site [URL]..which has content I want to grab.Let my window grab the raw html content from the other window.
I doubt this is possible because it could be used for dastardly purpii, but just wanted to check.

I just discovered impure.com and was very impressed by what can be achieved in terms of visualizing data using their workspace. Although the platform is free to use, but not open source yet. This causes a few problems because the API section works with .com sites for eg. for ebay, so I cannot visualize ebay listings for regional sites such as ebay.in because the link to ebay.com is hardcoded.I searched around, but didn't find other projects that offer a similar way to work with site APIs and other data sources with the kind of user interface and detail that impure.com does in a realtime way within a browser window.This brings me to the questions:
-What technologies would be involved in creating a similar kind of project
-What are the open source tools that can help develop a fullscreen UI to render the workspace. Are there any alternatives to flash for this, and how do they compare
The goal would be to use standard python data structures, python scripts to do some processing on these data structures, scripts to gather data from csv, json and API sources such as google yahoo, wikipedia and flickr, and scripts to render graphs, tag clouds, network visualizations etc. Then bring them all together into a visual interface that supports drag drop and simple type checking.How would the python backend integrate with the UI.

Is it possible to grab an event, hold it in a class property, do some action, then, when that action is complete, dispatch an event and then retrieve the original event.target in the listener?I am trying to avoid using a custom event for now, as it is giving me massive amounts of heartburn when dispatching it from a loaded SWF.Here is some code (that doesn't work)what I am attempting to do:
package
{
import fl.transitions.easing.Regular;
import fl.transitions.Tween;[code]....
I am able to stash the event in a class variable, and then access it later, but the cherry on the icing would be to get it from the event fired withing tweenHandler() in my example above.
Edit: Well,it doesn't look possible.I am currently storing the retrieved event in a property _event and then getting it at a later time when I need it.This seems to work, but isn't wonderful.

I am building a very long and detailed flash training program. I need to get a MovieClip to goto a certain frame based on the value of a variable that is defined on a keyPress.
Here is the code:
fscommand("trapallkeys", "true");
trace(nmhho);//show the value every time this frame loads
if (nmhho == 1){
Nav_Mode_Hdng_Hold_Override.gotoAndPlay(2);
}else if (nmhho == 0){
Nav_Mode_Hdng_Hold_Override.gotoAndPlay(1);
[Code] .....
The MovieClip in question is "Nav_Mode_Hdng_Hold_Override" "nmhho" is a number variable that is already defined and set to 0 initially, on keyPress of 9 it changes to 1, and when u press it again it changes back to 0, the problem is that when the page loads the "IF" statement at the beginning does not tell the movieclip to go to the proper frame.

For brushSize values of 3, 13, 23, 33, and 43 I'd like to display 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 respectively. I'm not really sure where to begin here, but I have tried and failed with something like this:
