So, I have an application where flash receives this string:'mp3, pdf, doc'using .split(), i managed to separate the values in an array.I need to add a "*." on each item of the array. i used for, but the result is always the last one. How do i manage to add the "*." string on all items of an array and display them on a dynamic textfield?[code]
View 12 RepliesWhat I've got is a menu that loads images as buttons. It will only display menu items that are within a certain group (i.e. if themenuitem.node Value == groupid[q] then it will display that menu item. Each of the menu items has a unique number (Itemnumber[n]). I have a loop that goes through and displays the menu items that are within a certain group. I am currently able to also find out the unique number of each of the menu items where themenuitem.nodeValue == groupid[q], but what I want to do with these numbers, is place them all into an array as it loops through.So, say for example, it finds an item in the loop. It tells me this item is number 4 (if I tell it to trace(Itemnumber[n]) within the loop). Then, it finds another item in the loop, and it tells me this item number is 6. I want to be able to add items to an array as it loops through, so I'll have an array at the end like this: (4, 6).Currently my ActionScript looks like the following. Never mind if there are variables that are not defined in there -- they have been defined in other parts of my movie.[code]As you can see, I've made an attept at achieving this by trying numarray[numarraylength] = n; -- but all this does is send me an array, then overwrite it next time it loops (so I get an array like (4, 4), then one like (6, 6). I've added comments in the code to further explain what I'm trying to do.

how to properly remove items from an array while in the middle of a for loop:
Code:
//This will cause errors, because if the condition is met, it will skip the next array in line
for (var i:int = 0; i < arr.length; i++)

If someone is reading through my code, will they understand what I am doing without me having to clarify with comments each time?
I have an array of objects which uses a delimited string as the keys. When examined in the FB4 debugger, the keys look like this:[code]The first two items are numeric (cast to string) but the third item in the multi-part delimited key is naturally a string -- it's like an alphanumeric library shelf reference. As expected, when you click on the [+] icon in the debugger, you can view the object associated with that string key. So far so good.The debugger shows the keys in the (pre-sorted) order in which they were added to the array. However, when iterating the object array so:[code]the keys are returned in some other order --internal hash? My question is, how does the debugger know the order the keys were added in, and can I access that knowledge at runtime when iterating the array? I want to iterate the objects in the order in which they were added. Or do I need to maintain my own index of these keys showing the order they were added to the associative array?
View 1 RepliesI need some help creating an array from a string send via POST from a php loop.The string looks sorta like this: keyword=key1val &
text=text1val & keyword=key2val & text=text2val
(spaces added for readability)
I have a little bit of control over how the string is sent. So I could add numbers to the keys in the string, so they read like this
keyword1=key1val & text1=text1val & keyword2=key2val
basically I want to then end up with an array
noteCards[0] = ["key1val", "text2val"];
noteCards[1] = ["key1val", "text2val"];

I am working on trying to collect data within an array (which works) and this data is collected when a button is pressed or selected. I also want the ability to remove an item from the array if the button is pressed again. Currently, I have these buttons dynamically generated and everything works well. The buttons have ids applied to them. SO what I am trying to get working is, if I select button 0, 2, 3 (0 indexing), the data array created holds [A., C., D.]. I want to remove A. after I click button 0. Instead, it seems to cause problems. What I am doing wrong with splicing??? trace statement:
A. items so far selected
selected items are: 0
A.,C. items so far selected

I was wondering if you could loop through your library or a specific folder in your library and get alle linkage names of items that have 'Export for Actionscript' checked. I have an amount of items in my library of which I want to random pick one. Of course I could just use an array of linkage names that correspond to my library items, but I was wondering if there is a more efficient way.

If you have a series of sprites created in a loop:
ActionScript Code:
for (var i:int = 0; i < numItems.length(); i++) {
var mySprite:Sprite = new Sprite();
}
Which you added event listeners to, in the same loop:
ActionScript Code:
for (var i:int = 0; i < numItems.length(); i++) {
var mySprite:Sprite = new Sprite();
mySprite.addEventListener(....
}
How can you remove those listeners, then add them again? I need to kill and re-enable the listeners of many sprites which were created that way.

I have 10 dynamic text fields inside a movieclip, which are populated via an XML file. However, the xml file sometimes has less than 10 items. It never has more than 10. This results in the following error, which is normal. I need the code to count the amount of items in the XML file and then create a for-each loop. I can visualize it, but I don't know how to write it. Basically what I need the code below transformed in to is this... (notice the #'s)

View 3 RepliesI have an array that contains movieclips. All of the movieclips have te type and they are all positioned on the stage next to eachother.
Above the displayed movieclips i have 3 buttons, each simbolizing a type, what i want to do is: i click on one of the buttons and all of the movieclips that dont match the right type should be removed from the stage, the remaining movieclips should then tween so that they are next to eachother again. If i click the button again then the movieclips should be displayed again to where they were and should all be positioned again next to eachother.
I'm a bit green when it comes to code and I have a specific thing I need to do which has had me going round in circles (no laughing at the back!). It must be pretty simple but I'm stumped!

suppose I have created an Array object with 4 items on it. Now how we can remove that all items without looping process.
