I was wondering how to store a DATE value, selected from the DATEFIELD component into a variable.I.e. so that the user will enter a date (Sept. 12, 2005), and on subsequent frame, that date will be written as text. Thus, how can I store a selected date into a variable?

I'am working with Adobe AIR application and i have a registration form which contains a combobox which consist of 2 values...i want to store the selected value to a variable..
[Code]....
I am making a form that pass's the Variables over to php. I am using Input text feilds and also a combo box. The text fields were a breeze and the combo box took a little bit of research but I got that working by assigning it a instance name of cBox and then using the following code to pass it through:
Code:
cBoxVar= cBox.getValue();
Now I want to add a DateField using the AS2 DateField Component. How would I pass it over to a variable so when the form collects at the end it will go over to the php?

Im trying to format the date format that is sent from Flash as a variable to php.
This is the code:
[Code].....
The problem is that it format and send the "today" date when it should send the selectedDate in the DateField component.
I want to assign date to Date field that is in DD-MM-YYYY format. That is I receive String Closure_Date which contains date in DD-MM-YYYY format.
I want to assign that date to Date field like:
dtCloseDate.selectedDate=new Date(Closure_Date);
In this case If Closure_Date contains 16/11/2011 it takes 16 as month so it takes 12 and adds remaining 4 months and it returns 04/11/2012.
My question is how to assign date(DD-MM-YYYY) to DateField?
If I use Dateformatter(DD-MM-YYYY) like
dtCloseDate.selectedDate=new Date(Dateformatter.format(Closure_Date));
It Returns NaN

I am using the DateField component in my movie dateField.swf. I am loading this movie into an empty movieclip in my master.swf. When I run master .swf the DateField component (residing in the loaded in dateField.swf) doesn't work properly! The dateChooser automatically opens up, which is good but when the dateChooser closes after I chose a date I can't open it up again! When I run dateField.swf on its own everything works as it should. And I have the DateField component also in both libraries. I have used the following code in the master.fla but to no avail!
empty_mc.loadMovie("dateField.swf");//this works fine
empty_mc._lockroot = true;
Simply as I can put it, I drag a Datefield component on stage and then create a dynamic text field on stage. I'm looking for the actionscript to make the selected date from the DateField also appear in the dynamic textfield.
I've found the script to do this for a numeric stepper
var my_nstep:mx.controls.NumericStepper;
var nstepListener:Object = new Object();
nstepListener.change = function(evt_obj:Object){
myText.text = evt_obj.target.value;
}
my_nstep.addEventListener("change", nstepListener);
I've tried modifying this script to work with the datefield but all I can get to happen is for the dynamic textfield to say "undefined."
I have a DateField component in Flex and I want to stop any user input. If I set the editable to "false" then it stops users changed the bits of the DateField box. It does NOT however stop them from clicking on the calendar icon next to it and updating the date. Is it possible to disable this? I basically want the component to be read only under some circumstances but not for it to have any alpha overlay. Therefore I want to use editable rather than enabled.

I'm using flash CS4 and actionscript 2.0. I have a situation where I need to locate and check the date of an external file (either .exe or .swf) and return that date string to a variable in flash. I then need to display that date to a piece of dynamic text within the flash file. Is there a function within action script that will check and retrieve the file date of an external file.

I have a movie clip on my stage with 8 buttons in it that all sequentially fade in via an alpha tween 0 to 100%. All the buttons simply link off to different URL's on click.

View 1 RepliesI was wondering if there is a function/method to get next and previous date of a selected day
something like getpreviousday hh or something? All I could find is function that people created themselves, I thought maybe there is already a built-in function.
I have some code as follows:
private function onComboChange(evt:Event):void {
var temp:Date = df_date.selectedDate;
temp.date += 5;
df_dateDue.selectedDate = new Date(temp);
}
In essence, I am trying to add 5 days onto the selected date in df_date, and put that date into df_dateDue. This fires off via an EventListener on a combobox. Both df_date and df_dateDue are dateFields.
OK, so the first time that I run this, it works fine; df_date stays the same and df_dateDue is set to 5 days past df_date. However, the next time that I run it, df_dateDue increments by 10 days from df_date, the next time by 15, and so on.
So, stepping through the code shows that somehow df_date has become linked to the temp var, and that the temp var is not resetting itself each time the function is called.
Example: df_date = 01 Jan, df_dateDue = 01 Jan.
Fire off the event, df_date = 01 Jan, df_dateDue = 06 Jan Fire off the event again. At this point, var temp = 06 Jan (even though df_date still shows 01 Jan), and df_dateDue is then set to 11 Jan Fire off the event again. At this point var temp = 11 Jan (even though df_date = 01 Jan), and df_dateDue is then set to 16 Jan

View 3 RepliesI would like to store a hex colorPicker value in a variable and then cast the value of the var backout to a textInput. The textInput is just to see witch hexcolor i have choosen.
thus meaning seeing 0x000000 in the textInput.
what i've done now is pretty simple i have bound the flex colorPicker directly to my textInput. but i want to store the value from the colorPicker in a var first and than spit it backout to the textInput to see the value that i have picked.
When i pick a color value that begins with the number 0 it drops the 0's at the beginning of the number and only spits out the numbers greater than 0. (000033 becomes 33, FF0000 stays FF0000). I want to catch the whole value or write some kind a function to figure out how many 0's got dropped and concatenate it together with 0x. Store that all into a var and bind it to the flex TextInput.
This is what i've got.

I'm using a dateField component (with editable = true) as an itemEditor in a dataGrid. Interestingly, when editing the textInput part of the dateField it doesn't seem to react to an ESC keydown as I would expect, i.e. reload old dateField value and give up focus. This seems to be standard for most other components, but not for as most other components do.
How would you go about implementing such behavior? I can listen to keydown == escape on the TextInput portion, but just realized that I don't know how to tell dateField to give up focus and politely close - in fact I'm not even sure that's the right strategy (maybe I should work at the DataGrid level?
I'm getting back into AS after a few years, and it's taking a bit to get used to the syntax of AS 3.0.
Anyway, I don't know the answer to the following in AS 2.0, so I wonder if it's even possible.
Basically, I want to know if there is a way to call a variable, the name of which is stored in another variable.
How would I write something like "NextToDisappear.alpha = 0;" and have it interpreted as "MC4.alpha = 0" instead of giving an error message complaining that variables don't have alpha properties?
In other words, is there a way to make it interpret a variable as its contents and not as itself when on the left side of an equals sign? Similar to the difference between quotes and no quotes when working with the contents of text variables.
I have a list component on the stage in an AS3 movie. I populate it with values at runtime and the user can select multiple values. When a button is clicked I want the list to reset to a state where nothing is selected, all I can figure out is to set the selected index to 0 and have the first position on the list either blank or reading "choose from the list" and make the code ignore this if it is selected. Is there a way to reset list (and combobox components) to nothing selected.
View 1 RepliesI'm having troubles getting selectedItems from a List Component in Flash CS4. Each time I select multiple selections the object that selectedItems returns seems to be populated with the last selected item in each of its instances. What is strange from the example I provide below is that once you've made your selection and click the label you can update another list with the correct selected values. But the output values are still traced incorrectly.

import fl.data.DataProvider;
import fl.controls.List;
