ActionScript 2.0 :: Parsing XML To Get Different Outputs?
May 25, 2005
I`m trying to load different texts from one XML file into my pre-defined areas. It works with one text....I gt to my frame where the as below is and the text gets loaded. BUT how do I need to proceed if I want to go to another frame and have a different text loaded from the same XML file?
Code:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
_root.inventor = this.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
[Code]....

I'm working on a web banner campaign, which as you probably know involves strict file size limits -- an extra 1 or 2k here or there can mean the difference between an ad being accepted or rejected by publishers. What I've been finding is that that files published from Flash CS4 are about 10% bigger than the exact same documents published via Flash CS3. Is this a documented bug with Flash CS4? Is it just not ready for primetime, as far as producing banners goes? I'm using AS 2.0, targeting Flash Player 8; I've deselected the option to include XMP metadata, and checked the Compress Movie checkbox. Using the new (slightly awkward) Motion Tweens or using the old-style Classic Tweens doesn't seem to make a difference.
One interesting tidbit: I'm using TweenLite and one easing class, which should add around 5k to my file. However, in CS4, the size report says that I've got 17k of ActionScript classes included. What's weird about that is that if I comment out the import statements, size report now says I have 5k of ActionScript 2.0 classes - but my file size doesn't drop by a corresponding amount (it only decreases by about 5k). Very odd.

I've scripted a connection to PHP that gets data from MYSQL and outputs that into a datagrid.When I encrypt the swf with Ameyata SWF Encrypt 5.0, and upload it to my webhost, it looks fine. I can click the header of the datagrid (that sorts the data), but when I click on a field of the datagrid, it just freezes and my datagrid is not usable. I'd have to reload the page in order to do something with the datagrid again. But the problem with the field remains.It works when I'm not encrypting the swf.URL...

I am trying to use POST in Flash (ActionScript 2), to POST values to PHP mail script.I tried the PHP mail script with HTML form, and it worked perfectly fine.But when I POST from flash and input non-English characters, I get "????" in the mail.I tried utf8_encode($_POST["name"])Edit:I also tried utf8_decode($_POST["name"]), it didn't work.Update: (So you wont have to go through all the comments)I checked the variables in Flash,the values are stored correctly.The HTML page where the Flash is embedded is UTF-8 encoded.I watched the POST headers with FireBug, the POST itself is already messed up, showing "????" instead of the real value.The the messed up "????" value, is currently url-encoded by flash, and decoded by PHP, resulting in $_POST["name"] == "???";I suspect its the sendAndLoad method that creates the mess.Update:Here is the flash code:
System.useCodepage = true;
send_btn.onRelease = function() {
my_vars = new LoadVars();

For example, on the previous scene i have 4 objects, you have to drag one of them into an area and will go to the next scene once dropped. Depending on which object was dropped, a specific number will show up for it. How do i assign these objects the numbers and how do i output these number into this text box?

I have two text boxes as outputs: "textDisplay1" & "textDisplay2".When I click the button "test" these outputs display a number between 0 and 1. That is what I want and I am happy with that.[code]The problem I am having is, I do not want the same number in both boxes. If textDisplay1 displays the number 0, I want textDisplay2 to display the number 1. I do not want both boxes to have either a 0 at the same time or a 1 at the same time.[code]But that just makes it randomly guess a number again which sometimes is the same number.Can I make it if textDisplay1 = 1, make 1 unpickable by textDisplay2? Which would only leave the 0.

I'm trying to make a calculator that takes a number that is input and then runs it through a formula and outputs it.
Elements:
Input1_txt
Input2_txt
RadioButton1
RadioButton2
Output1_txt
Output2_txt
Output3_txt
Output4_txt
Submit_btn
What I am trying to do is:
part 1. Take the input number of Input1_txt and if RadioButton1 is selected then divide Input1_txt by 2.20462262 but if RadioButton2 is selected then just take the number in Input_txt.
part 2. The outcome of part 1 to be multiplied by (100 minus Input2_txt) then divided by 100.
part 3. When Submit_btn is pressed outputs:
Output1_txt = The result of part 1 minus the answer of part 2, then multiplyed by 2.20462262 (and rounded to the closest whole number)
Output2_txt = The answer of part 2 multiplyed by 2.20462262 (and rounded to the closest whole number)
Output3_txt = The result of part 1 minus the answer of part 2 (and rounded to the closest whole number)
Output4_txt = The answer of part 2 (and rounded to the closest whole number)

According to the pixel bender specs a shader can have one or more outputs. The pixel bender toolkit, whose "export to flash" option tends to be preety strict about the flash specific do's and dont's, would even compile such a shader without complaints.
However actionscript's shader related classes seem to be geared toward single output shaders. Is there any way to have multiple shader outputs in flash?

i have a problem with the flash textFormat. I want to write an editor, which only outputs bold (<b>) and italic (<i>) tags and not the other information flash adds to an htmlText.
for example in this case the output trace (myTextField.htmlText) should be exactly the input.
ActionScript Code:
import flash.text.TextFormat;
myTextField.htmlText = "huhuh <b>asjdja</b> asdasd";
trace (myTextField.htmlText);
is there a cleaner solution than replace the other information (font-size etc)

So let's begin. I want to build a wheel which you can spin, similar to a roulette wheel. You can do this both ways (CW and CCW, this issue causing the bug, actually). The wheel has some acceleration to it too, and I achieve this by measuring the start and final angle of the drag movement, using Math.atan2(dy, dx). The problem is the following: atan2 outputs the following angle scheme, assuming the point relative to which the math is done is in the center of the circle.
atan2 returns a value measured in radians, so I'm using the classic angle*180/Math.PI formula. I've changed this original scheme into the following, using some simple math to shift the angles a bit, to resemble more accurate circle angles (going up to 360 degrees) The problem that I'm facing at the moment is should the user decide he wants to swipe clockwise, and moves through the right point, where 0 turns into 360 or 180 turns into -180, the whole angle difference thing is capsized. It registers a CCW movement (as if the user swiped his mouse all around the circle). So, I'm looking for some ideas as to how I can work around this small issue.

I cannot Check Syntax of AS3 (error sound, not the happy 'ding' syntax checked sound), nor does the IDE Auto Format anything, even valid code. trace("x"); does nothing (except throw the 'error in your syntax' message). There is nothing displayed in the Compiler Errors pane or in the Output pane. Document Classes fail to work and fail to fail, when they are purposely mis-coded. Class files also cannot Check Syntax or Auto Format or output anything with trace("x"). AS2 files behave normally, with all the above items working.
I had the trial version of CS5 running fine. It expired. I bought the Full Version Upgrade which worked fine. Yesterday, the as3 script environment fails to check syntax, fails to auto format and does not send any trace statements to the output window. I have removed the application & re-installed and updated, but nothing has fixed this yet. AS3 code envorinment is seriously messed up. I will update everything tonight.

I only started coding Actionscript about two weeks ago and I really need help on this, I am seriously considering just coding an if statement for each value if I can't figure this out. Sorry if my code is terrible formatted, I am self taught using Adobe Help.This is what I need help on.I have a program installed on a game server (CoD4) that outputs the server information including player(s) info and would like to be able to make it so that there is a flash document on the website displaying the information for each player. I wanted the program to build the information automatically and so far I have been able to make it work but the formatting of the output is terrible.To make things simple, the only real information I need from each player is their name and guid. Hopefully each player's info is on a new line.This is the xml document the server is outputting:HTML Code:[URL]
Code:
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.net.URLLoader;
import flash.events.*;

This is my first day to try and use XML to display dynamic text in Flash. My skillset is weak with AS3 and Flash, but I found some tutorials online and I have managed to successfully display the first record in mytest.swf. However I also seem to have all records displaying in each dynamic text box as well. My loop isn't stopping after each record. It's reading everything. And dumping the results into each text field.
I need to only display each record individually. Once I accomplish that, I will need to include some form of navigation. Lets say buttons that perform a NEXT, PREVIOUS, LAST, FIRST type function. Then lastly, I'll need to include some type of search navigation option by item number. I assume that I'd have to have a second screen that links to my primary results screen with an input form for the item number.

I am attempting to parse some weather information from the Yahoo weather RSS feed.This is a typical XML node;
<description>Yahoo! Weather for Palm Springs, CA</description>
I used the typical XML parsing code in as2;
var text1 = this.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
txt1.text = text1;
I was doing pretty good until I reached a node that was formatted thus;
<yweather:forecast day="Mon" date="28 Sep 2009" low="74" high="103" text="Sunny" code="32" />
This text traced a value of undefined.I have tried to research this and so far all I have been able to find out, is that this is a XML namespace and is very easily handled in as3. Unfortunately I have to use as2.How do I parse out this information into a dyamic text fields?

I have an xml file and im putting this xml file in an XML object
var receivedXML:XML
In some function, I have:
var xmlList:XMLList = new XMLList();
xmlList = receivedXML.some.attributes.here;
object.functionDoStuff = xmlList;
The function functionDoStuff takes xmlList as its argument:
function functionDoStuff(xmlList:XMLList) {}
When does receivedXML get parsed, is it when we assign it to xmlList, or is it when it gets used in the next instruction by the function functionDoStuff?
