I have a database all set up and working between flash and SQL .The set up allows me to add entries and receive data.. all this works great..The only problem I'm having is that when I want to update the score when clicking on a button..I can only send or receive data, and what I actually want to do is overwrite the current entry with a new entry to update the score..
View 3 RepliesI've succesfully loaded and parsed this XML file, using XMLParser and AS2:
<Resources>
<item author="Julian" date="28/12/2010" time="01:18" id="876" like="8" dislike="5">
<Text>Sample paragraph</Text>
</item>
[code].....
Now, what I need, is to increase and store the "like" and "dislike" values with the click of a button, but I don't know how to modify and store them in the existing nodes (eg., without adding new ones).Do I need to use PHP, or can AS2 handle it by itself?
I have table named "highscore" like this:
nameQL scoreQL
piotr 50
And flash game with NAME and SCORE exported to PHP with this names.How to make this in PHP file:
IF (NAME exists in database (nameQL)AND SCORE> this.name.scoreQL){Raplace scoreQL with SCORE WHERE nameQL=NAME}
IF (NAME doesn't exists){Create new row with NAME and SCORE)
I have an AdvancedDataGrid tree with a ArrayCollection as its dataprovider. Now, for instance, i drag a leaf from one node to another node. To catch the event I'm adding a Listener to dragComplete.
[Code]...
My Problem: I want to know the new node where the leaf was dropped. Actually i would have expected that in the event there is a property like dropParent. This is not the case.
I have a tree im my mxml that uses a XMLListCollection as dataProvider. Itīs XML is like:
<list>
<conta nome="Plano de Contas" id="1">
<conta nome="Creditos" id="2" />
<conta nome="Vendas" id="4" />
[code]....
How can I make the node for, say, id==4 visible AND selected?
I have a bitmapdata object that is filled with n rectangles of a width of 1 pixel and of varying heights.
I want to run through a loop and remove the old rectangle and replace it with a different one.
Should I do something like reset the each bitmap column of pixels to a background color and then add the rect i want?

I thought this was going to be easy! I would like to search an XML file for a particular data set i.e. set of nodes depending on a passed variable. However, storing a subset of my XML file via Code:var gallery = this.firstChild; and then searching 'gallery' as you would an array-using a for()-doesn't work since this.firstChild isn't returning an array
Code:
<gallery>
<collection title="Christmas 2004">

To my knowledge this doesn't break Liskov's Substitution Principle as an instance of a subclass can do all the things that an instance of a superclass can do.
View 1 RepliesI'm using the build in Flex Dataservice to connect to a BlazeDS server. Flex is using the *.fml file within the model folder for the connection details, within that file you can find the following:
<annotation name="ServiceConfig">
<item name="DEFAULT_ENTITY_PACKAGE">valueObjects</item>
<item name="contextRoot">/MYWEBAPP</item>
<item name="rootUrl">http://192.168.178.21:8080/MYWEBAPP</item>
[code]....
the _super_Database class created by Flex DataService uses that configuration to setup a remote object for communications.Now i'm looking for a way to overwrite those settings within the Database class which extends the _super_Database class.
I'm currently trying to built a little Air Application where I want to set the normal Command-C key to call a function? Is this even possible to use a standard Menu Command?
function createMenu():NativeMenu{
var menu:NativeMenu = new NativeMenu();
var menuOneCommand: NativeMenuItem = menu.addItem(new NativeMenuItem("Menu 1"));
menuOneCommand.keyEquivalent = "C"; //Command Shift C
menuOneCommand.addEventListener(Event.SELECT, myfunction);
return menu;
}
Moreover I would love to know how I can call a function (myfunction) which is actually a MouseEvent Handler?
function myfunction(e:MouseEvent = null) {
trace('Throws Errors at the moment')}

I am deploying Updates via SCUP and SCCM to hundreds of Computers. Fortunately Adobe provides an SCCM Update Catalog for both Adobe Flash ActiveX and Adobe Flash Plugin. But now my Problem: After publishing the Update via SCCM, the client is not supposed to be interfered with the Update Progress (which is working) I figured the Updater works like this: First SCCM checks if a Update needs to be deployed, if this is the case, The Flash Updater begins. First the old Flash Version is beeing uninstalled. But now: if the Client has a Browser Window (IE, or Firefox) open, the Updater is not able to install the new Flash Version and quits with an Error. This leaves the Client PC without any Flash (because its being uninstalled before) How can I prevent Flash being uninstalled due to the Update progress not working while a Browser window is open?

Im trying to do a drag and drop system where the user can drag a movie clip into an area. Although i would like to make it snap to a target instead of just sitting wherever it lands in the area. Problem Two:
The next thing i am trying to do is when the user has a movie clip on a target already, and trys to put another movie clip in that target area, it will replace the one thats in there and go back to its current position. Here is the script of what i have done so far:
[Code]...
Imagine a black box with a white X inside of it. They are both inside a single movieclip called "box". What I want to do here is with actionscript, replace the White X (0xFFFFFF) with Red (0xFF0000), while the black isn't affected at all. I've thought about making two more movieclips (one for the X, and the other for the block), but it would be easier for me if it just replaced certain colors.
View 4 RepliesI have a datagrid called dg that has data populated to it thru an external XML. What I am trying to achieve is whenever someone clicks on an item in the grid it stores that items coordinates to a variable called locCoordinates. At this moment it is tracing out the coordinates for all of the items in the grid. I just dont know how to go about only getting the selected items coordinates.

Given

<crazyNode>Data to be overwrited</crazyNode>
<simpleNode>Normal data</simpleNode>
<crazyNode>Actual data</crazyNode>[code]......
I want to get the last crazyNode (the one which contains Actual data).I know how to access the first node, for example:
nodeList.crazyNode[0]
And I guess a solution would be
nodeList.crazyNode[nodeList.crazyNode.length() - 1]
But for some reason I don't like doing that, too verbose and maybe there's a method more elegant.

I'm using XML to populate a comboBox Component. How do I get the aactionscript to trace which number in the array the choice is? So for example is my choices are:
choice A
choice B
choice C
on the dropdown box, whne I click "choice A" I want it to trace "0" because that's it's place in the XML, or if I click "choice C" it will say 2".If i use "length" it will tell me how many. I need to know what to use that tells me which one.
