im having problems with a nested loop. i found some post here, but they didn�t help me. i need to extract the individual values from a nested xml node. i simplyfied the xml.
this is the code:
[Code]....
I want to extract each individual node from and XML file. I want to preserve the node data AND the attribute name and the attribute data. In short create a new XML that is a copy of the complete node.
I am sure this is pretty simple but whilst I keep getting close I seem unable to get it to work!
Here is an example to illustrate:
If my XML file is like this (just an example)
Code:
<X>
<O A='1' Z='22' Q='13'>DataX</O>
<O A='54' B='25' C='16'>DataY</O>
[Code]....
My nested loop works fine, but I don't know how to call out a node or set of nodes in my code. Here is what I have
knobCC = [];
knobCCC = [];
var hardware = this.firstChild.childNodes;
[code]......
I have a pretty simple question, how do I reference an individual word in an XML node. For example PHP Code: <tag>word1 , word2 , word 3, word 4, word5</tag> where I want to refer to all these tags individually instead of as a whole string.

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 am trying to set variables from an array. I want my variables to be named Pic1, Pic2 etc. (according to how many values are in the array).This is code from the "parsing external array data" tutorial**
files = new Array();
lv = new LoadVars();
lv.onLoad = function() {[code].....
I have Flex 4 DataGrid, what I would like to do is when an cell has been edited, I would then like to walk through the values of that column and preform math on the values, e.g., I want to total up certain values.
1) How do I reference individual values of a specific column so that I may set them.
2) How do I then set those values or should I create a new column array and pop it in place of that column.
I have piece of ActionScript code which is supposed to evaluate a string of HTML and break it up into individual pieces. So a string like <p>Hi</p><span>Hi</span><a href="index.php">Hi</a> would be translated into:
1. <p>Hi</p>
2. <span>Hi</span>
3. <a href="index.php">Hi</a>
...
However, when I run a test version of this code, I get a value of null in return. I'm pretty sure my regexp string is good, but I'm doing something wrong in ActionScript. My code is below:
var evaluatedInput:RegExp = new RegExp('/<([A-Z][A-Z0-9]*)[^>]*>(.*?)</1>/');
var output:Object = evaluatedInput.exec("<p>Hi</p><span>Hi</span><a href="index.php">Hi</a>");
trace(output);
I'm trying to access an XML file (that I cannot rewrite) in Flash.
[Code]...
I can access the first "title", but I can't get to the node nested in <item>. What am I missing?
[Code]...
Example: xml - <price> 2.00 </ price>
flash - for (var i = 0; i <total; i + +) (
var mc_val = _root.scroller.content_val.check_list.duplicateMovieClip ( "list" + i, i, _root);
$ var P: Number = new Number (xmlNode.childNodes [i]. childNodes [3]. firstChild.nodeValue);
show = P $ + P $ / / /
Here I can not make the flash back we added up all he gave me Retron only the last.
I have colour values from a Flash application that are ARGB format(A being the alpha/transparency value). I have to convert that long decimal number to a RGB/Hexadecimal number in Javascript. Do you know how I can extract the individual R, G, B & A values from a long(8 digit) number? Here's my function which converts a number to hexadecimal BUT its not good enough because it needs to convert the values individually(R,G,B,A):

I've got a multilevel node structure that looks something like this
[Code]...
I want to do a search for the first node that matches an id. I usually use this syntax:
xmldata.*.(@qid == "a2")[0]
but it looks like it's not working for multiple nested levels. Is there a way of finding the node without looping through and archiving the content?
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?
From Pro Adobe flash can I export an animation's data? like the x and y coordinates and rotation values for individual images in a sequence
View 1 RepliesI have populated a comboBox dynamilcally from an xml file. When a user selects an item from the comboBox, I want to search the XML nodes and retrieve an attribute of that node.At the moment I had this working correctly by storing the value in a _global variable and using the info in a function.
Code:
// Create Listener Object.
var cbListener:Object = new Object();
Assign function to Listener Object.[code].....
This technique won't suffice as we are changing languages around.How would I use eventObj to target the desired node value?
I couldn't find a better title to describe my problem. I want to achieve this:
[Code]...
My problem is that mc always referrs to the last mc created in the for loop so the first mc created causes the last one to move on mouseover. Maybe I could use something like "this" or "self"
I am loading an xml file and some of the node attributes do not have values:
<books>
<book id="qq" description="test1"></book>
<book id="nn" description""></book>
</books>
I get a null object reference when I try to run the second book line because of the missing description. Can I check for this in code and skip accessing the description for this line?
Something like if (xml_book.@description is null) {do nothing}else{do something)?
Kirupa's tutprial "Using XML in Flash CS3/AS3" when filtering the node values, how can I match a text string say "Stephen" with "Stephen E. Ambrose"
var authorList:XMLList = bookInput.Book.(author == "Stephen E. Ambrose");
Using the above code it only searches the node which author value is "Stephen E. Ambrose" but I want to search only "Stephen" and want to get this node returned.
From this AS3 code I expect 500 lines of trace outputs that contain "2048". But instead I get only some lines containing "2048". The rest of the traces print a "0" which shows me that the extract() method did not return any data.
Why is this the case? I would like to iterate through the soundfile with a specific amount of steps to extract 2048 bytes of the sound at the respective position. Extracting the entire soundfile at once would freeze the flashplayer for seconds and is therefore not a good solution for me.This behaviour can be found as long steps is smaller than samplesInSound/2048.The closer it comes to that value, the more lines with a "0" are printed compared to those with a 2048 in it.
var sound:Sound = new Sound();
sound.load(new URLRequest("soundfile.mp3"));
sound.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, soundLoaded);[code].....
I had the idea that the extracted part of the soundfile is cut out of the rest of the soundfile after extracting it (like at Actionscript 3 - Sound.extract method empties sound object data), so I tried out another for loop:
for(var i=0; i<samplesInSound - steps * 2048; i += Math.floor(samplesInSound/steps) - 2048) but this didn't work out either.
Basically, I have data organized by date in an XML file. I'm trying to make a website application that will allow the user to click on a date (in a text field) to see another textfield populate with all the data under that particular date. So far, all the information loads into the textboxes at the same time. How can I get it to only load information under a particular date when somebody clicks on that date?
Before I started this project, I was convinced I could do this by manipulating the [j] (see code below) in the myFunc2 function. Currently, it's set up to increment blank_mc._y by whatever value is returned by [j]. But for some reason this doesn't work. I feel that if I could atleas get this part to work - I could probably do the rest.
AS code:
Code:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
var nodes = this.firstChild;
[code]....
var node:XML;
In flex/actionscript 3, I can call node.attribute("somename") and get the value of the "somename" atribute of the node. I can also call node.attributes() and get the VALUES of ALL the attributes. But how the heck do I know what attributes to look for?! The application I am creating does not know the format of the XML file in advance. I need a way to know the NAMES of the attributes of the nodes, before I can access them by name!
have this code that's supposed to return the an array that holds the values that were contained within an XML node.
[Code]...
for some reason, the code won't return anything. the output just says "undefined". Would a good workaround consist of putting the return function within a setInterval method?
It's been a about seven years since I have done any work with Flash but now my employer is asking me to create a custom online magazine tool (we're publishers). I've been immersed in PHP and AJAX and building Mac apps with XCode so I've got a bit of a relearning curve to go through.
Anyway, I'm pulling in some XML into a Flash file and want to display some of the various node values in a dynamic text box. That was easy enough, AS3 makes it a charm compared to the dark old days. The problem I am running into is displaying the values - its kind of a runsheet for a magazine - num of pages, ads, features, etc. etc. and I want to display that in one text box in a list type format. So I have something like this:
[Code]....
I have need of loops / nested loops that pick different figures depending on where you are in the loop. The whole function needs to run through 'ml' times. 'ml' is a dynamic figure. Loop 1 = While the loop is within the first 12 iterations, 'exconemp' must equal 100. For iterations 13 - 24, 'exconemp' must equal 102.5, for 25 - 36 it will be 105.06, for 37 - 48 it will be 107.69. This needs to change every 12th iteration until it has reached 'ml'. The calculation takes the value of the previous 'exconemp' and then multiplies that by 0.025.
Loop 2 = While the loop is within the first 120 iterations, 'abc' must equal 0.015 and any further iterations must use 0.01. This must also work in a way to figure out whether 'ml' is higher or lower than 120 and work accordingly. My main issue is this - how do I get the loops to run through as this: While the iteration is < 12, do this, THEN take the final figure (12th iteration) and start on 13 - 24, do this THEN etc etc. How do I produce a THEN statement? I can get the code to pick up the final values, but not change along the way.

Trying to loop though my XML data and assign to text fields. Not get a specific error but I am pretty sure it has something to do with the way I am referencing the data and assign it to the .text box. I am also having issues with getting the length of my xml so I know how many times to loop.first a summary of my XML:
<Worksheet>
<Row>
<Data>Last Name</Data>[code].....
I have an AS that reads a PHP generated xml file. I've got it to get mysql db info just fine. Only problem I'm having is it keeps getting the <item> field from the first node.
Here's my XML:
Code:
<birthdays>
<month>January
<item>ronnie7211 - 01st</item>
[Code].....
As you can see the output is all wrong. I should be reading the <item>s under the <month>February</month> node.
I'm having an issue grabbing xml node attributes through a multidimensional loop.Here is the Actionscript:

im loading in a xml doc and it loop in the xml doc depeneding on how many node are in it. and attaches the nodes to a mc. the mc has three text fields in it. im trying to move that mc called t over 50px on _y.Code: as of right now they load on top of each other. does anyone know how i would go about doing that?
View 12 RepliesI'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
