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.

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'm working on a portfolio. Right now theres two buttons that both expand and close the box which contains my content. The only problem is once the box is expanded (viewing about me for example) and you clicked the contact me part, the box would just close and not re-open. So what I need to know how to do is to close the box and have it re-open with new content.This has to be done in actionscript because that was my challenge so please do not give me other solutions such as making more MovieClips,
View 5 RepliesI've made an external preloader (loader.swf) that loads another file (test.swf) - it works fine. However, if I change the test.swf-file with a new version, I have to clear my browsers cache to "update" the new version.
CTRL+F5 only seem to check for a new version of the loader.swf - i cannot force update the file which the loader checks for.
So to the question, is there an easy way to have the preloader check for a new version of the test.swf?
I would like to have menuItems with checks that show what element of the menu has been selected. I know it is possible to have checks with XML. But is it possible to have variables in XML because the elements of my menu are variables. If there is a component on sale that has exactly the design of the flash component menuBar + menu and that is more easy to program,
View 0 RepliesI have inherited a website - http:[url].... and I will need to edit the first page from time to time (Flash). I have the original .fla files and I only have Flash CS4. Not sure which version of Flash the originals were built in, but opening in CS4 I can only see 35 frames - not enough to go through the whole thing. If anyone cares to have a look at the site there's a stopwatch in front of a garage door. This quickly fades in and out, then a car and other stuff appears. I can only get as far as the stopwatch. I can see the whole lot in Flash player though.what I am not doing right?

how to write this script with the checks?
finishing a function that checks 6 positions (indiciesOfInterestShape) in a dynamically updated array (productCode) for two types of values; the number 0 or any number between 1 to 8 .I need the result of this function to update the finalNumber variable to a number between 0-6.If a 0 is found at any of the 6 indicies it will mean the final number does not increase.If a number between 1-8 is found at any of the 6 indicies then the final number increases by 1. And seeing as there are only 6 indicies to check the maximum number will only ever be 6.This is what I have so far
// indicies that are dynamically updated 10 19
public static var productCode:Array =
[C,A,1,A,1,A,A,1,A,A,0,0,A,0,0,A,0,0,A,0,0,A]

I have a MovieClip that when the update(); function is called, it checks the cells (on a grid) around it to see if there is an object there. If so it updates it's image to reflect that.
How i'm doing it now is something like 40 if/else/else if statements..
I thought I might have had this answered before, and my question is just below, which I marked as answered, but really it's not, so, apologies for asking again. I inherited a site to maintain [url]... and I've just got the original 'fla files (I only had .swf previously). However, while I can get the file to play in it's entirety, I only get to see 35 frames, so I get the impression I'm not able to import the lot.

I would like to have it converted so it will work in Flash Player 10, AS 2 (not 3!), for CS 4. I am using a Mac. would be willing to pay a reasonable sum of $ via PayPal for this work. I do not think it should take much time (it is a small file).
I'm trying to get a custom flash gallery going by using the loadMovie command with Jpeg's. I must use this method as it's what is required by our project. I am trying to figure out some way to make an array to keep all of my image names and then detect which button is being pressed and have it call the corresponding number within the array.Currently I have some code that is working quite well but not fully
Code:
stop();
var thumbArray:Array = ["i1", "i2", "i3", "i4", "i5"];[code]........
I have two buttons currently instanced named i1 and i2.The trace is working and calling "i1" but for some reason even though i set i1 = "thejpeg.jpg" it isn't calling the jpeg.I can upload my file if necessary.Also i'm going to need to be able to unload the opened jpeg by clicking anywhere off of the jpeg's area, .i know how to unload a jpeg but I don't know how to detect when you click any surrounding area of it.
