ActionScript 2.0 :: Individual Listbox Items Linking To Individual External Text Files?
Jun 20, 2004
I've gotten as far as getting a listbox with a list of articles to display the articles in a dynamic text box, only i can only get it to work if i use one huge external text file that contains all the articles. what i want is to have each item on the list open up its own external text file, i.e. for each item on the list, there exists a separate text file. I'm about ready to put my fist through the monitor, and that would suck because this is a really nice monitor

I have 5 text files that contain a list of 50 items in each file.
I want to bring that information into a datagrid; 1 column per text file. I'd also like to extend the code to add more columns when new files are created.
I was able to bring in one column, but maybe an approach with xml, an xml connector and dataset would be better.
Here is the code so far:
Code:
var PATH:String = "10-12-09.txt";
var extIndex:Number = PATH.lastIndexOf( '.' );
var extless:String = PATH.substr( 0, extIndex );

I trying to load indivual strings of text from an external file. example: I have a movie that navigates from frame to frame. on each frame I'd like a line of text to load into the movie. When the user navigates to the next frame the text loaded vanishes and is replaced by another line of text. This can be done with separate txt files, right but I was wondering if and how it could be done using one external text file.

This is driving me crazy, it seems like it should be simple but I haven't been able to find any documentation on it anywhere. I have a List() that I've created and populated with a DataProvider. I want it so that when you click on a list item that item becomes disabled (in the same way you set list.enabled = false). Since I haven't found out how to disable the list, I have something like this which just removes the entry:

I am trying to create a combobox where the items listed in the combobox are font names and each item will display using the font of the item label. For instance, one item label in the list is "New Times Roman" and I want that particular row in the combobox to have the text AND font of "New Times Roman". For some reason, inside of my custom CellRenderer class, I cannot seem to find a way to get the item label that corresponds to the CellRenderer and the CellRenderer.data item always appears to be null!
This is the code I am currently using:
//From the main class, I am creating an instance of the
CustomizableComboBox and adding in the font names I am interested
in.
var comboFont:CustomizableComboBox=new

Have built a gallery that holds animation files (60 fps) and flash video files (30 fps). The gallery file speed is 30 pfs to match fhe video files. in this configuration my animation files play very slow while the video files play good. When I change the speed of the Main Gallery file (the one that holds the animation and flash video files) to 60 fps. The result is inverted. The animation plays OK while the video plays very slow.
How do I change the speed of the animation files so they play at the correct speed. I have a hint but do not know how to script it. Animation files ( playSpeed X2 or something equivalent).

I want to identify specific strings in a text box from user input to add to a score variable, like so -
[Code]...
The example given adds 1 to the score, but if a user adds a space then a second word the text box views it as a whole and not individual words, resulting in no values added to the score variable.The problem lies with the whole text box being viewed as one entire string. Instead, I want to split it up so word1 will add 1 to the score, word2 will add 1 to the score, etc.

I created a 3D carousel in CS5. It works wonderfully. For now, I have it set up so that if someone clicks one of the menu items, the output window say "commited suicide after being cyberbullied", what I want to do is either have different text (that shows in the window) for each of the eight menu items when clicked, or 8 different URL links for each of the menu items, when clicked.

make an interactive flash simulation of a display that has several different settings. these need to work individually so that the user can set the different indicators to the number they want. the picture shows the two main functions; a number indicator and a status bar (kind of like the reception bar on a phone).i have tried to get .swf files to load on top of each other, but they keep erasing previous settings in other indicators. is there a way to get this to work? or maybe a completely different approach that would be smoother? or can someone point me in the direction of a tutorial or a template that has this function?

I'm trying to create a little linking menu, for that I want to use items and then have some text within those items. When the user then clicks on the item, it's supposed to link. It all has to be loaded externally from an xml file. Now, I can get it to work half the way, the items come up, but it doesn't load the text, and it doesn't link either.
My AS:
[AS]var item_spacing = 50;
var item_count = 0;
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild.firstChild.childNodes;

With get- and setTextformat I can set the individual color of a section in a TextField. There is a problem with getting and setting a textformat from and to a TLF (set- does give an error message when putting the TextFormat back to the TLF).Now if I have two strings and want them to have different color and size in one TLF what would be a good way to do that. I don't want to programm all TextFormat propertys for every different Text in my application.

I have figured out a way to change the style of tabs at run time with following logic:
var cssStyle:CSSStyleDeclaration = StyleManager.getStyleDeclaration(".MyTabs");
cssStyle.setStyle("borderColor", "red");
But here ".MyTabs" class is applicable to all the tabs between first and last tab. As per getStyleDeclaration javadoc, it only accepts "class selector" and "type selector" not the id selector.
How can I change the individual tab style at run time?

I need a way of recognizing what weapon is currently being held.The way the weapons works is it is a movie clip, with multiple frames, each with a different weapon, and each weapon has a different minimum/maximum damage they can do. How can i make a code that recognizes which frame the weapon movie clip is on?

I have two buttons without names and I'm trying to have the same exact code on each so that you can click the button and it will turn white (or look like it), and click it again and it will turn back to blue (alpha at 100).This is the code I'm using on each button:
Code:
on (release){
if (_alpha == 100){
_alpha = 1;
[code]...
Unfortunately it causes both buttons to change their alpha to 0, not just the one that the code is on.Could anyone tell me why this is and how to make it so that only the button clicked is the one that has the alpha change? The reason I'm doing it this way is that I am going to end up using over 600 buttons like this, and I would much rather be able to copy and paste them in rows instead of naming them (I've already spent upwards of 45 minutes naming them A1, A2, B1, B2 and changing the code to fit).

I been trying to find this but no luck so far. Is it possible to get different soundmixer values for two different sounds that are playing at the same time?
At the moment it seems to me that the soundmixer takes the combined sound output for analysis, which si not what I need.

Let's say I have and HTML page that contains lots of small SWFs: example: Code: [URL] Let's say each of those SWFs has also assigned method STOP(); which stops it from playing further and PLAY(); which starts playing it(ex: u can see "PLAY" btn in example attached). Now what i want to do: I want to be able to controll ANY of those SWFs from ANY other SWF inside that HTML file. Ex: i click 1 SWF to PLAY(); and ALL other playing SWFs will be STOP();-ped, so that only 1 SWF plays at a time.

in a actionscript file, is there anyway to have different codes target different movieclips? For example, if i want one movieclip to tint to red and another to tint to blue, can I do that in the same actionscript file or do I need to do that in separate actionscript file?

I've created a loop to define onPress functions for a group of movieclips. The code is here:
Code:
var select:String = "none";
var elist:Array = ["dappled", "panda", "red", "blue", "green", "gray", "fire", "earth", "water", "garden"];
[Code]....
All the mcs now have an onPress function. However, they all define the "select" variable as the last item in the array. Is this because every mc is referencing the new curs? I'm not really sure... Is there a way I can fix this so select is given the correct (unique) value every time?

I started creating a simple navigation bar: [URL]
But decided to make individual buttons: [URL]
As you can see the latter repeats, however the code (after about an hour checking it seems to be identical:
Actions for frame one:
_root.buy_mc.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (mouse_over_buy_mc) {
_root.buy_mc.nextFrame();
} else {
_root.buy_mc.prevFrame();
}};
Actions for invisible button:
on (rollOver) {
_root.mouse_over_buy_mc = true;
} on (rollOut) {
_root.mouse_over_buy_mc = fstartlse;
}on (release){
getURL("[URL]");
}
