ActionScript 2.0 :: Populate A Combobox From A .php File?
Aug 16, 2004
I trying to populate a combobox from a .php file and return the values of the selection. I have the .php set up to where it outputs something like
&artists=anartist,anartist2,anartist3, etc..they have names..
I already have the combobox set up to where it displays
anartist
anartist2
anartist3
after you click the dropdown arrow..How would I get it to return a the numerical value for the artist (ex: anartist would be "0" since it is first in the list) and put it into a variable so that when it is selected it could be placed into an eval() function to create a variable such as "albumcover0" to be loaded through a function. I have been reading tutorials for hours to no avail. I want a single function to produce the number from the selected artist and place it into a variable, then go through all of the loadImage(for the "album image") etc functions..they will be functions that I have made already previously and call all of them with the number in the called fuctions (ex: loadImage(0)) where "0" is the number derived from the variable out of the combo box. Ive tried tons of tutorials, I think that it has something to do with me using flash mx 2004, and as2 turned on.

If I have a ComboBox component on stage and it has 11 options in it, is it possible to populate a dynamic text field with text based on which one of the 11 options are selected?ComboBox has instance name of 'age' and has 11 options to choose from (Opt1, Opt2, Opt3, Opt4, Opt5, etc.).There are also 11 dynamic text fields (instance and variable names of c1, c2, c3, etc.). I want the text fields to be blank unless the corresponding option is chosen. So, if Opt1 is selected from ComboBox 'age' then populate 'c1' with the number 1, if 'Opt2' is selected populate 'c2' with 2 and so on, otherwise the text fields stay blank.

What I have atm is a combobox with types of products in it. How do I populate a new combobox using the product names from an external xml file? I've already loaded the xml file so I don't need that code. What I want is for the names of the products in the label and the child number in the data field (product.type.name[n] - I want n in the data field).

I've actaully got all of this working.All I need now is to make the comboBox text HTMLtext so that I can use the HTML tags to color the text different colors or bold them.It might be important to mention that I need to change only some of the things listed, not the entire list. So if my list on the comboBox is "item 1", "item 2", "item 3", "item 4", I only want "item 1" in bold and colored red.

I use this arrayCollection to populate a Flex 3 Datagrid. I'd also like to use this arrayCollection to populate a comboBox with the Name node.
In the arrayCollection, I've got the Name listed twice. I've got two rows in the Datagrid.
If I set the ComboBox's labelfield to Name, then the Name will be listed twice in the ComboBox menu. Is there a way to use this arrayCollection and have each Name listed only once in the comboBox?
I can always make another loop and array collection for the Name, but I was wondering if there were a better way.
var i:uint;
for (i=0; i<myArray.length; i++){
myDGArray = [

I am trying to populate a ComboBox from a ColdFusion component. The cfc is simply querying a db to get a list of products.
However, the code I am placing in the Actions panel:
function PartsList_Result(result) {
DataGlue.bindFormatStrings(test_cb, result, "#name#", "#partsID#");
}
doesn't appear to be working correctly. The only result I see is a blank box that when I hit the arrow, the first item in the query is returned. From what I have read, I thought that the code above would be all I need. So I'm not sure why:
1. The first item is not automatically selected
2. The rest of the list is not there.

I'm currently working on a project where I have a user defined list of urls which is saved in a local SO. When the movie is loaded the ComboBox is populated with the values from the SO (Stored as array inside SO).I want to give users the option to remove items from this list. So far I have managed to remove the selected item from the combo box, clear out the SO and loop the remaining ComboBox items, but, when I try and load these item into an array to parse back to the SO, the array is created and creates the correct amount of elements, but, each element is populated with only the data from the 0 index item of the ComboBox.My code so far: (This sits inside a button component and is invoked onClick)
_root.ComboBox.removeItemAt(_root.ComboBox.selecte dIndex);
_root.ComboBox.selectedIndex = 0;
_root.local_data.clear(); [code].......

I have a data grid with an Combobox itemRenderer in it. What I have is a grid with a person id and person name (more stuff in grid but I am struggling with this). In the person name column I have an combobox with all the people on then system's names and id's. What I want to do is when I select a person in the combobox I want the combobox to populate the person name fields (which it does) but I also want to pull out the person id from the combobox and populate the person id column in the data grid as well.

I've got an array that looks like this, iterating through:
(languageArray[i].languageName); //e.g. "French"
(languageArray[i].languageCode); //e.g. "fre"
I'm trying to populate a fl.controls.ComboBox dataProvider with this array. What I want to do is set the labelfield, as shown in the documentation:
[Code]...
In other words I want the name to be displayed, and the 'data' to be the code, which will be called when I click on the item. But the labelField is not the same as "French". How do I create the two fields in the array such that I can designate the first as labelField and the second as data?

I am developing a panel in Photoshop with Flex and Extendscript. I am pretty close to getting this to work, but with my Flex skills I am having a little issue with the Array I am pulling in from the jsx file. The array is displayed fine in the alert box, but somewhere between my split and creating new collection something is wrong.
Here is my Flex
protected function loadData():void {
var grabFolderNames:SyncRequestResult = CSXSInterface.instance.evalScript("labNames");
var list:String = grabFolderNames.data;

I'm trying to setup a DataGrid that contains a column of combo boxes. The values of the combo boxes are defined by data specific to that row. I cannot get this to work though, I'm asking for a solution to this, either fixing what I have below or a recommendation on a different way.One of the columns of my DataGrid has an object derived from a ComboBox for an ItemEditor. The itemEditor is set like this:
<mx:DataGridColumn editorDataField="selectedItem" dataField="type" editable="true" >
<mx:itemEditor>
<mx:Component>

- adding/deleting items from the tree
- save tree back to xml format
- copy child nodes from one tree to another

I have a text file with about 1000 rows of data and about 100 values (separated by spaces) in each row. What I need to do is to load the data into Flash into a separate array for each row of data, but am not sure how to get started. I will no doubt have to name each array dynamically as I don't want to hand code 1000 names for arrays!

I am currently working on an educational project. After submitting for review, the clients have requested I make an array which was hard coded in the as file, to read from xml. The problem I am having is that I do not know how to populate the array with the information contained in the xml file.
hard coded in the as file
wordList = ("Paper,Plastic,Reduce,Retrieve,Litter,Trash,Glass,Recycle").split(",");
I am wantying to replace the word lists that are included with the information in the xml file so as to allow different users to create different words for the list without having to edit anything othere than the xml file.
