View 1 RepliesI'm trying to figure out the best way to create a search box that searches an XML document and returns the results. So far I know how to do a search that returns exact matches but I want to make it so if someone typed in say "Manager" it would return results that Also had "Sales Manager" or "Account Manager".
Currently I have
PHP Code:
var authorList:XMLList = xmlData.job.(title == citySearch.text);
Which only works with exact results. What is the best way to get around this? Do I just need to bring in everything from the XML file and then compare it using .search()?

In Eclipse (and Flash/Flex Builder) you get the option with Ctrl+Shift+F to do a file search and look for a regular expression. Would be a real handy thing to know.
I want to find the word negate if it appears in a Flex/java comment like the following:
// It was negated because
or
/*
[Code]....
Is it possible to create a search function and show the results by goin to that particular frame within a flash file ?
The data is not dynamic....and it is not server/web based....
When I call a .php file from flash and then echo a value back to flash from said .php file flash does not read it. My code is like this:
[Code]....
Note that there is a successful connection to a database using xampp as a server.
So we want to seacrch for file like exampl*.ex*mple. We want to search in all users files and folders.
I know it will take long, but steel using ONLY AS3MXML, no native commands, no external programms - only AS3MXML libs and classes, we can skeep all folders with sise <= 200kb
So How to search for a file on users file system? (in Air application, NOT NATIVE)
Long story short: I want to search a multidimensional array in AS3 for (in this example) the location of 6 strings - all of which are stored in another unrelared array. Long story long: Once I get the locations (in the multidimensional array) of each string, i then know where it's located, and can access other atributes of that object - so if i found the string "box3" is located in element [5] of my multidimensional array, i can now target: multiArray[5][3] to return the 4th item stored (keeping in mind we're starting from 0, so 3 is the 4th position).
I can get this to work once, but I'm trying to set up a for loop based on the length of my basic string storage array - this array holds (in this example) 6 instance name strings - each time my for loop loops, i need to run a search in my multdimensional array for the next consecutive instance name. Then, once I've located all of them (and store the results in a new temporary array) I can dig around in each location for the info I need.

Is there an easier way to search for ActionScript in an FLA? I've inherited a Flash Project from a former co-worker, and have been searching for this particular source in my FLA file, but have not been able to find it:
[Code]...
I'm well aware that it's there _someplace_ and have tried going through every symbol listed in the project, to no avail. When running the movie in the debugger, I see it lsited under "Actions" for the button symbol "mpbutton". However, when "editing" that button, I see no such actionscript associated.

I have a client whom I made an xml driven slide show for. Everything is working fine, but now they want a search box with button where the user can search through the "description" nodes of the xml file and then display that image.
I know I will use a loop to itterate through the nodes, but how do I actaully test to see if there is a node with more or less the same text that the user entered? Btw, the application is standalone, not on the net.
I have made a flash banner where there are 5 buttons.So I want that whenever I will click those buttons a light box will come out.For that I am using Fancy box.So how to call fancybox in a flash file?
View 2 RepliesI'm currently searching for ways to count the number of pre-defined keywords in an XML file. An example would be trying to find how many times "war" is mentioned in a news networks RSS feed <title></title> and adding it to a variable.
I've found a few custom AS3 XML class files out there but nothing I've been able to adapt.I'm at the point of considering just taking the title of these news stories converting them all to strings and searching them that way.

I have my latitude and longitude coordinates that are constantly updating depending on my location... and I want to be able to search a XML file and ask whether or not certain locations are within the 5 miles.
If they are it displays those points in a list... if not, they are excluded.I don't need to be deathly accurate... Under a quarter of a mile or so would suffice.example of lat:long numbers would be something like

I have a Windows DLL that I want my Flash file to call functions from, I've only seen native extension tutorials with Android and iOS, but not many for Windows. I have a tiny bit of programming experience with C++ and C if that helps (haven't got passed the Pointers yet, but I can read about them).

how to make that "more" link in the XML tell flash to run a specific function.I already have a function that makes whatever mc I want visible and I can write some code to fill in dynamic text boxes with the proper nodeData.But what would that "href=" have to be in the XML in order to call that function inside of flash. Is there a way you can turn XML data into executable commands?
it is possible to do search / replaces in script, text etc over multiple files? If not, is there any 3rd party software available to do it?I have hundreds of files I have to make the same change in and just wanted to find out before I have to do the mind-numbing process of going through them all.

View 3 RepliesHow can I use sendAndLoad to call a php page with flash, and have that page create a user download box, to save a txt file? I have the php code that outputs a text file:
Code:
Header('Content-Type: application/octet-stream');
Header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=test.txt');
// Print the text to be sent
echo "hi";
That would force a download box if you ran the php page but the send and load will not get it to work.
if it is possible to launch a phone call from a Flash SWF File? If yes, is JavaScript involved ?
View 5 RepliesI'm trying to post a Quicktime movie into Flash CS3, but my FLV file looks AWFUL when compared to the original Quicktime video. When importing the Quicktime video, I've tried all kinds of settings. (Soreson Sparks was the worst.) I've changed the quality, the data rate, and the frame rate; I've selected "deinterlaced" and deselected "deinterlaced." I've changed the key frame placement and interval and left them alone. I am all out of ideas. I am grinding my teeth.
By creating some kind of var or something, is there any way I can call up a Quicktime video into Flash without actually converting it into an FLV file? It was suggested that I make an SWFObject2, How to make my video look better. I just want my video to look like it does in Quicktime.
How can I consume a webservice that hasn't explicitely created a crossdomain.xml? I understand it's for security and to prevent cross-site scripting, but it does seem like a major limitation to the Flex framework. For example, if I want to consume a webservice, which is suppose to be language agnostic, then I can't with Flex. The webservice/server has to be specifically prepared for Flex/Flash. If it's not, then it cannot be consumed.
View 3 RepliesIs there an actionscript class that can call an image that has just been uploaded onto the server and place it into a movieclip? Struggling to find a code as each image will have a unique number. Is there a code that can link into a php session that starts as the users uploads the image?
I have found several tutorials for loading data/text into flash using either the 'filereference class' or the 'moviecliploader' but these seem to need a string or a url for the data fro flash to get. Another option is to have the upload script in flash itself but i do not want this either.
