I'm loading some text data from XML (short numbers) and I parse this data in thumbs with text field. Now I want to tile them max 400px in width. After that, they must start to tile in second row at x=0 and after 400px _width they strat with third row. How to make this? This is the part of the code:

I have three dynamic text boxes. variables respectively
(caption0,caption1,caption2).
My xml file is structured as:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<captions>
<caption>Roll over this</caption>
<caption>This is the first Caption.</caption>
<caption>This is the second Caption.</caption>
</captions>
I am trying to create a rollover where when you rollover caption0; caption1 and caption2 are displayed in sequence. Everything works except though only the first caption is ever displayed. For the other two I get "level0.caption1" and "level0.caption2" instead of the text in the xml file above. How do I parse the data so that each of the variables are assigned the text in the xml file?
I have a sensor that sends data as text file. Data format as follow: dat=110405120000+000.00+000.00+005.65+000.00+040.71+000.00+000.00+000.20.
How can i parse this data? The output i want is:
date: 05-04-11
time: 12:00:00
ch01: 000.00
ch02: 000.00

I was able to parse one "column" from a CSV file but when I tried to parse another "column", it shows in the dynamic text as "undefined". I wonder, maybe my code regarding the levels is incorrect.[code]...

This will parse child elements of the <text-block> but will not work with <ul> as it has its own child elements <li>. I guess this could be accomplished with yet another loop but I wanted to check to see if there was another simpler way.
I got a music portfolio web site running PHP, MySQL and Flash. There's a page showing all the artists my client worked for and when you click on a song title, this title is passed as a variable to a PHP page then to a Flash page. The Flash page contains an actionscript music player which then looks for the right audio file in the database and plays the song. Everything works great except for the dynamic text field which displays the song title. If the song title contains an apostrophe or a single quote, the Flash dynamic text field then shows the apostrophe.[code]

On that frame, there is a movie clip (instance name: scrollbox_frame), and in that movie clip there is a four-layer animation.

I'm experimenting with the XML help files provided on the LiveDocs website and I was wondering how you would display XML datas in a dynamic text string.For instance I have a Dynamic Text Field called "textfield". This is my code.
import flash.text.TextField;
var xml:XML =
<foo>
[code].....
i have this code:
import flash.net.URLLoader;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.events.Event;
[Code]....
It works, in the output it tells me the tweets. but i need it to be displyed on the app, i need to no how to do this, someone pointed me in the direction of using a item renderer extended from sprite? But really all i need to do is display it in a text field, all i want to do is display the data.
I am trying to load xml data into a dynamic text field. I am able to load, and trace the data but cannot display it into a dynamic field. Here is what i have:
Code:
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader()
xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest("directory.xml"));
xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, showXML);
[code]....
What I am trying to achieve, is to produce what I've traced into the dynamic field. Also if there is a way to do that when a button has been clicked. I tried making the function showXML a mouse event, but it didn't work.
I've got my XML file loaded and parsing correctly with a trace statement.
I want to have each text identified as marketLocation1, marketLocation2, etc up to 150 and I wanted to use a 'for loop' to place the value of that XML node into each labeled text field, and each individual text field is buried inside a button so that the button displays on mouseover an associated XML fields data. Each button would also be corresponding labeled market_1, market_2, etc.
Meaning, I mouse over a dot on a map (button) and it pulls up a statistics balloon about that location specific to our companies needs. I'm a total AS3 noob, so I'm not sure if I can preload the data for that button into it's specific text fields.
Specifics are for the xml/flash file
Code:
<market MarketID=1>
<marketLocation>Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill, NC</marketLocation>
<marketPopulation>2,600,000</marketPopulation>
<marketArea>100 sq. miles</marketArea>
</market>
I have markets divided up into regions. I have the base map, which when you click each region goes to a new labeled scene on the root timeline. The scene shows a closeup version of the region. On that region are the dots for the markets. Each dot would have an up state and over state (displaying the pop-up balloon with data) etc.
I'm working on the first 'button' as the initial test and what I want to do is make is that i can use a For loop to cut down on the code, using the variable i in place of the "1,2,3..."
The first button, market_1 is in a labeled scene SERegion on the main timeline. While the code I'm using to parse all the fields is in frame 1.
When I try to place the value of marketLocation located inside the button market_1, I am trying to do this when I parse the data
Code:
function parseData (marketInput:XML):void {
market_1.marketLocation1.text = marketInput.market.(@MarketID == 1).MarketLocation.text();
}
When i compile, i get the error 1119: Access of possibly undefined property marketLocation through a reference with static type flash.display:SimpleButton
MarketLocation is also in just the Over state of the button.

i have a dynamic text field which is filled by a list of attributes pulled from an external xml file... this is working fine... i would like to now turn each of these text attributes into a 'button', essentially giving them all event listeners but have no idea where to start for this...? can you turn text field data into interactive objects? or is there a better way to turn xml data into links?
View 2 RepliesAll I want to do is have an input text box where the users type a number, then Flash to perform a simple calculation and then display the answer on screen. For example; output = input *2 so if the user entered "5" the value displayed on screen would be "10".
I found this tutorial which is exactly what I am trying to do: [URL] but cant get it working correctly for some reason and just gives a "NaN" result (looks like an old version of flash)
I'm encountering a problem I did not think of. I have a single textfield, that oncesubmitted via "Get" method, sends the data to the site (Think of a google search field in a banner).In any case, I have some default text in the field. But when someone clicks on the submitbutton, the default text gets submitted as the search string. Is there a way to get the result from submitting the form without entering text into the textfield to be a default URL, and not the text string? See Below:
myfield.text = "Enter Your Text";
myfield.onSetFocus = function(oldFocus) {
myfield.text = "";

I was working with the XML Photo Gallery Thumbnail Tutorial on this site: http:[url]....
And I modified it for my own usage, making it a vertical gallery instead, and had no problems until I came upon the thumbnail images. When I replaced the original thumbs with my new thumbs (that I sized based on width, as it is a vertical gallery) it got all screwed up. The images are of all different shapes. So when it loads up, some of them had huge gaps in between them, and others were even overlapping. So I fixed it by making the heights of all the images the same, resulting in a working thumb gallery, but now half my thumbs are cropped off by the mask. I'm looking for a way to fix it where I still have the same spacing between the images, and that they are all the same width, but can vary in their height. Here's the section of the code I am using:
function thumbNailScroller() {
// thumbnail code!
this.createEmptyMovieClip("tscroller", 1000);[code]....
I'm also trouble figuring something out from the same tutorial, that I want to change. The tutorial uses these "Next" and "Previous" buttons. On the far right hand side, the half-circle buttons are what I assigned this to, but I don't really want them to have that function. I would rather have them function just like how the mouse functions when it rolls over the thumb gallery, except they scroll the thumbs up and down when clicked.
I would like to be able to dynamically populate a dynamictext field (assuming that's the best component to use) with anarray of data from PHP.I have attached my PHP code and my Flash Code.The PHP code is working fine and generating the array.The first part of the AS code is working as I can see thepop-up window with the PHP array in it. However, I can't figure outhow to get the array to display in the dynamic text box.I have created a dynamic text box in flash with nothing inthe 'instance name' box and 'events' in the var box.
View 1 RepliesI have a string that searches the Twitter API, for keywords, for example :
var url:String = "http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=Robin%20&lang=en&rpp=100";

var inputField:TextField = new TextField();
addChild(inputField);
inputField.border = true;
inputField.width = 200;

But how do i take the data from the input text field and add it to the string, keep in mind the input data has to go in the keyword part for the string.
I need the use of the chars â„¢ and ® but only the latter appears. I'm using a loadVars object and an external .txt file which is loading with success, but where I need the phrase "Soo Bahk Doâ„¢ Moo Duk Kwan®," I only get "Soo Bahk Do Moo Duk Kwan®" Why doesn't "â„¢" load?
Edit: I'd like to add that I have chosen to embed all uppercase,lowercase, and punctuation marks, and I additionally added â„¢ and ® to ensure they'd appear, but, the trademark logo still does not appear.
