ActionScript 2.0 :: Get The Day, Date And Month Values And Switch Them To Get The Text Equivilent?
Aug 6, 2003
I have this huge thing of actionscript (See below) which I wrote my self and unsurprisingly it has some problems, it is meant to get the day, date and month values and switch them to get the text equivilent of that integer. Well not exactly it gets the day right at least but then it gave me the 3th (Try to pronounce that) of " " month. I am stuck? Here is the AS
setInterval(dateSet,250000000000000000000000000000 0);
function dateSet(){
var day = new Date().getDay();[code].....

I need to be able to compare the number of whole days between two dates in ActionScript, is this possible? I'd like to test if one date is 7 days or less after today, and if so is it one day or less (if it's before today this also counts).The workaround I have in place is using the .time part of the date field:
// Get the diffence between the current date and the due date
var dateDiff:Date = new Date();
dateDiff.setTime (dueDate.time - currentDate.time);[code].....
As I say - this is only a workaround, I'd like a permanent solution to allow me to check the number of whole days between 2 dates. Is this possible?

I was hoping you could help me with how to get the 22nd day of the previous month based on the current month you are in. Then, I would like to create a DataChooser and set it's start date to this date.

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.

I've got a little script that scales a video to the stage. The scaleing function has a switch statement to indicate what kind of scaling to apply.
If I declare the case value of the switch statement internally all is fine. However if I load this value from an XML doc, even though the trace indicated the value has loaded, the switch never fires.
ActionScript Code:
/stage variables
var sH:Number;
var sW:Number;

Is there a way to detect if a dynamic text field that has basic english characters embedded can't display some foreign text, japanese for example?
So I can then switch the text to display in an arial device font text field.
Sorry if this has been answered b4, but I can't find it if it has.

I need to replace some text - it's actually a bunch of textInput area data captured and placed together {inputArea1.text}{inputArea2.text} style - and have it placed in an mx:Text text="{inputArea1.text}{inputArea2.text}".So I have the smart idea to pull a switch case, where the case condition is the id of the canvas and it's pulling from the textInput areas.My output from the aforementioned string into my text just yields: Code:function Function() {}I complete this, I can sleep.

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 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?
