how to make a count down set to a static date? Like Aug. 1st. at 12:00 p.m. ?
I found a tut. on this site about a count down, but it only allows for Christmas 03.
I want to do a thing where a number is displayd, and it represents the number of days that has passed since I started the date.Or to put it in another way, I put the certain date in the actionscript, and it displays how many days had passed since that date, on the main stage, inside a text box
View 8 RepliesI'm trying to create a counter that will countdown to a date and time.I seemed to be getting lost with my coding.I've got some simple code that counts down.But, I'm having trouble trying to figure out how I can have a counter count down to a specific date.(ALSO... if the date has passed... a different message should be displayed.)Ideally, I'd like to do this in Flash 5 code to guarantee that the end user will probably have the Flash plugin.
View 1 Repliesok, i am modifying the "date countdown timer" tut by Sen. to cound up from a specific date. However it hates me.
Would you not just subtract the eventMillisecs from the currentMillsecs?
and that should give you the amount of milliseconds that has past since the event date. My brain hurts, it seems like it should be so simple.
looking for an AS3 way to define a date in the past and count from then until the present moment in increments of a second in an interface stating years, months, days, hours, minutes and seconds..

View 1 Replies[URL] how to make a date countdown. I now want to take it a bit further. On my site I have three gears that just continuously turn; now what I want to do is that over a period of time, these symbols change. Like say every 2 hours the symbols change to a different colour or something, and at pacific dates more gears will appear.

I'm trying to make a volume button for my site and it looks something like this:
- ||||| +
i want the volume bar to start filled and when the user hits the minus button it lowers the volume and when it hit plus it takes the volume up well when I go down and up the volume bars start to get crazy...it just works when I go down the whole way and after it goes up the whole way, when I change direction on the midle of the path it jumps some bars...
Code:
volDown.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, menosVol);
volUp.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, maisVol);
var cliques:uint = 0
if (cliques == 7){

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 would like to make an .exe file that shows a starting number (that I would designate in the code), and then every 30 seconds, it adds 1 to that number. So for example, the exe begins by showing "11,057" on the screen, and then 30 seconds later, that number changes to "11,058", and so on. Is this possible? How do I do this? I wish I could find an .fla that does this so that I could understand everything from setting up the text box to show the number to assigning the actionscript code to make that number change.
PS - I need this counter to run as an .exe file on a Windows 7 computer that will not be connected to the internet, so code that requires PHP or running on a web server won't work. But an XML file called from the .fla would work, because I could keep the XML file in the same folder as the .exe on the computer.
I was trying to make a count up for an url. its an image i want to change the url of every day. in that i mean its just a number in the url i want to change every day at 01.00am, how can make that stuff?

View 6 RepliesI need a simple counter (in Action Script 3) to tell visitors to a website, since you opened this web-page... X number of babies have been born worldwide.
Where X is simply an ever-increasing number. Say that there are 200,000 babies born everyday throughout the world, then I want the counter to increment...200,000/(24X60X60) = 2.315 per second

I've recently started a project in Flash cs4 and I was trying to (for sake of ease) incorporate the use of the enter key as an alternative to pressing a submit button with the mouse. Now, I know how I could go about calling the keyboard event and linking it to a function, but I need to use the enter key for two separate instances (and yes they correspond to two separate functions) of a button.
In Flash MX, there used to be a way to set a property field in a button to a key to have it register as that key. If the buttons were on two separate frames, the key would only activate the button that was showing currently.
way to make the enter key count as pressing two different instances of a button (with two different functions) in the latest incarnation of actionscript?
Im trying to make a dynamic textfield count from 0 - $number (lets say 50) in 3 seconds. So that when I hit 3 seconds then I hit 50.So what im basically doing is calling a function with setInterval and im calling the function every 60 milisecond (3x1000 / 50).
The textfield is following a movieclip (percentagebar) which im tweening from one position to another in the same amount of time - 3 seconds.What im seeing is that the movieclip reaches its end position before the count on the textfield is done.Is this because the mc tween relies on the FPS and will therefore end quicker?And what can I do to make my textfield count end the same time as the tween?
ActionScript Code:

View 1 RepliesI made this simple AS3 game that generates a random amount of stars on the stage. The user has to count the number of stars, punch that number into the input box and hit submit.The problem is that if the user wants to play again, he/she will have to go through the hassle of closing and re-opening game. That's why i'm now wondering how to make a reset button that re-generates the stars for the user to count again.URL...
View 1 RepliesI've found a simple count up script over on Actionscript.org
var count:Number = 0;
var maxNum:Number = 1250;
var num:Number = 1;
this.createTextField("txt", this.getNextHighestDepth(), 0, 0, 100, 50);
[code]....
This works great for my use, but now I am trying to figure out how to make it count down. I've tried changing everything to opposites like count=1250 and maxNum=0 (I think this would be the minNum instead), count+=num to count-=num, and count>=maxNum to count<=maxNum.

View 2 RepliesI got a Problem with my DateChooser. When clicking the control directly it highlights the date as it should. When selecting the date programmatically it won't show.
var date:Date = notification.getBody() as Date;
_view.dcMiniCalendar.selectedDate = date;
trace tells me, that date and _view.dcMiniCalendar.selectedDate carry the correct values. I already tried to use _view.dcMiniCalendar.invalidateDisplayList() (and some other invalidate functions as well) but neither with nor without them I get that date to be shown selected in the control.
