ActionScript 2.0 :: Populate Listbox With All The XML Files In The Same Directory?
Feb 4, 2009
I want to populate my listbox with all the XML files in the same directory as the .swf, but I also want to release my final .swf to others, so I can't just use the directory that directs toward the folder on just my computer. How would I go around doing this, and how would I refer to the selected item in the listbox in order to use the selected file? Sorry if this is actually really easy, but as indicated in the topic title, I not sure how I would go around doing this due to my noobiness in coding.

I really don't know where to start with this. I have many xml files in a specific directory and would like to have a listbox become populated with only those xml file names when a button is pressed.

I'm trying to open a few .mov files in quicktime when they are selected in my listBox.I have this little block of code (What, I believe, is the important part):[code]It's launching a browser though, instead of quicktime. Which kind of makes sense, but before I tried it with a .mov, I tested it out with a .wmv, and it launched windows media player.I suppose otherwise, I would have to put everything in the fscommand folder, and figure out how to tie the fscommand folder to the vidList.change function..?

As expected I have a question, which is the following: Is it possible to load a complete directory into Flash. So that the only thing you will have to do is copy/paste the file to the directory and Flash loads it automaticaly?

My company has recently asked me to install the Adobe Streaming Server 4.0.I was wondering if it is possible to have the server software reside on the C: drive, while having my VOD files on seperate D: drive.The staff here wants to separate the software (server in this instance) from the individual flash video files, so they have set up two drives.

Due to decisions out of my control I've created a iPad app by way of a CS5.5 Flash build and using the 'Air for iOS' publish.
In the 'Air for iOS' settings I've included a file. The issue I'm having is in trying to call the file and not knowing what the path is.
I'm hoping this is a case where files added in this manner are placed in a consistent location.
Is that the case? And if so, what would the path be?

This hopefully should be an easy fix. Part of my program calls for extracting the number of files within a given directory. This is done easily using the code below:
[Code]....
However, this code only works using AIR as the runtime player. There should be an equivalent command that can be used with Flash layer 10.2 or earlier.

We develope for multy users OS. So my Air App needs to save some files to let all users acsess them (and be able to acsess them on its own). So I need a function to save files into public directoris (crossplatform function).

I was wondering if it is possible to make and App capable of listening when the user "adds" new files to a directory.
Example:
The User opens up our Application. The user adds new files on the desktop (using the Microsoft Explorer). Our application automatically detects that new files have been added and executes a function or whatever.
Maybe, this could be done using a programming language like Visual Basic and open the executable with the NativeProcess api and listen for an stdOut event.

is there a way to have flash read swf from a directory dynamicaly. so if you add a new one it reads it and you could have a next and previouse button to dynamicly browse throught them.
this way you could just upload new swf and it would automaticaly add it to the set so when you hit next at the end it would read the new one.

I'm creating a simple online, Flash-based music player; the user clicks on a song in a DataGrid and then it plays, simple. I will display the song information with the ID3 method in the 'sound' class, but I don't want to hard-code all the songs into the ActionScript, because I might change them. I have created a "tracks" folder in the site directory; how can I extract the names of the files within that folder without knowing how many files there are, and inherently, without knowing the URLs?

I'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

I am new to flash and decided to start out using templates to gain a beter understanding. I grabbed a template - that when I went to save it said it was an MX version - once I began to make changes in it re-save and publish it I noticed that some of the elements were missing. I thought it was something I did so I copied the entire directory and just opened the .fla and saved it without making a change and then published it and the items were gone again. I saved it in the same directory only changing the output .swf file and used all of the same html files

When I have a class linked to a MovieClip in my library and that class takes an argument in its constructor method. That class will compile properly ONLY when it's located in my top-level directory (same dir as the .fla and Document.as files). If I move that class to a deeper directory, say com.place, and update the package statement and symbol link appropriately, the compiler will generate error "1136: Incorrect number of arguments. Expected 0."Create flash project and put a rectangle on the stage. Covert it to symbol and assign it to class TestPanel - or whatever you choose. Also configure the fla so that is uses a Document (Main) class.Create Main.as and TestPanel.as in the same folder. In the Main class, instantiate a instance of TestPanel and add it to the stage. Flash will, predictably, add the rectangle symbol and everything is fine.Now modify TestPanel so that its constructor method takes a Number and have Main.as pass some number to TestPanel.[code]You now get the error: 1136: Incorrect number of arguments.Expected 0.When I move the TestPanel.as into a deeper directory, Flash somehow is looking elsewhere for the base class for Symbol, even though I'm mapping that Symbol to com.place.TestPanel.

I have an AIR app that gets bundled with XML files that the app needs. These get put into the APP Storage Directory, of course. Works great. But when I install a new version ( which includes new XML files) , the new files don't get added or overwrite the ones from the previous version. It seems that if that directory is there from a previous install, the installer will ignore the part where it moves included files.

I use javascript to play a flash file, and it plays correctly. But it also needs to parse some configuration files in the flash default directory. So the problem is: the flash file I am going to play can't access its config file for the wrong working directory.
For example, I specify the swf path value as 'falsh/list/test.swf', so my javascript will give this swf value by swfobject.embedSWF to play this flash. But the flash file flash/list/test.swf needs to parse a config file in the same directory with flash file like flash/list/config.xml. The problem is flash attempts to parse this config file under the current javascript working directory.

What I want is for flash to grab files from a directory without knowing what files are there. I dont think it's possible with AS3 but I'm not too sure about XML, and if I can get it into a xml file, then i can ccess it from as3. The concept might be confusing so an example would be if I had a mp3 player and I wanted to play files from a certain directory but not know what files were in that directory. I would assume XML can "scan" folders for files with a specified exstention and store that information in an array of somesort.

I've been going crazy trying to figure out a couple things, spent the last few days scouring the forums and my understanding of actionscript and php aren't advanced enough to understand what I need to do.I have a very basic contact form (one I've successfully used before) that I thought I would adapt for a new project (to include a couple listboxes).In Flash, visitors enter name and contact info, then we want a listbox for them to select an event on a specific day, then another one that they select a time (both listboxes will be populated within flash, so no dynamic loading).
They hit Submit and the form information is sent to our email address using php.The first difficulty I had was how to capture the selection of the listbox. I don't know much about actionscript, but I thought that would be pretty straight forward and was hoping I'd find something in the community to keep it simple for people like me.
Then to send it to the php email document, I'm not sure how to treat it the standard text is easy to prep for php but I'm at a loss on the listbox-selected items.Right now I try to fill out the form, I hit submit, and get a message: undefined.I commented out the second listbox so I could just focus on getting one to work, but I'm not sure which stage I'm doing it wrong.[code]I think the php is good, and pretty sure I just don't know what I'm doing with the listbox selection.
