I have a text file that holds names. I want to import the variables from the text file.I can do that, but I also want to create a loop that will iterate through the text file and create the variables. The number of variables in the text file will vary.I simply don't know what I'm doing and need a hand.Here is an example of my variables in my text file.
Code:
name1=Anna&name2=Joe&name3=Carmen&name4=Susie
Here is my URLLoader[code].........
I have variables named name1, name2 in my text file and want the same names in my flash file. I know my onDataLoad function is incomplete but I left some fragments so you can see my failed attempts.
You can import Text Files into Flex. It's a web application [SWF] that runs in Flash player. And the source may be any text file [.txt, .xml, .as, .js or any other] with content viewable in Notepad. You can as well point to your source file using \ notation. For complete code, see

I'm building an interface that is able to import text and images from an XML file - so the user can easily edit the text/image in the XML without even opening Flash.

This is my first experience with PHP, so bare with me. I've made an Ecard using Flash and Dreamweaver. On the Ecard is a form to fill out, your name, your email, a comment, and the name and email to the person you are sending the ecard to.[URL].. When you push the "Submit"-button it sends an email to the receiver, and it creates a .txt file on my server with the info.
The .txt-file has a unique name generated by:
$mailCount = $_POST['me_count'];
$senderName = $_POST['me_name'];
$senderEmail= $_POST['me_email'];

I couldn't find a good, clear question and answer for this in StackExchange, so I'll pose this as clearly as I can and hopefully get a clear, concise answer.Suppose I have a .txt* file with variables for a bunch of objects of one type that I was to load into an ActionScript 3 program. I can use an import statement such as:
[Embed(source="test.txt",mimeType="application/octet-stream")]
private var testFile:Class;
for some of the places where I need to do this, but I also need to know how it's different for files chosen by the user from their local hard drive.n code, how can I convert this file, testFile:Class into an array, result:Array, of strings?*: If you have a solution using .xml or another format, please also include a sample of what the file's contents would look like and how you would get them into variables within AS3Edit: Below is a quick example file I threw together, test.txt:

View 14 RepliesI tried to import a class in a .as file and I had strange behaviors that I cannot explain. First of, I tried to get work a senocular class by importing it locally his script in the same directory of my main .as class.
package{
import flash.display.*;
import flash.net.*;
import flash.events.*;
import duplicateDisplayObject;
There was no error returned from the compiler saying not found but there was one telling my class is still undefined as when I try to make the class work. (possibly undefined method). So I did it with the old fashion I found in some demos, placing the .as file in a com/senocular/display/ folder:
package {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.net.*;
import flash.events.*;
import com.senocular.display.duplicateDisplayObject;
And then no errors. The compiler recognize the class and execute it.
My supervisor is interested in showing certain data within a dynamic map and this data must be fed from an Excel file. I was thinking I may have to use some service to convert the XLS to a CSV file, but if there's a direct way to do it with AS3 I can skip that step. The Excel file will be updated regularly. Eventually, she wants this movie to allow her to modify the Excel file as well.
