ActionScript 3.0 :: Adding Random Number To File Name Upload?
May 2, 2009
I have a script to upload images to my server. I want to generate a random number to add to the users file name incase they upload an existing name and write over it. I have created a var called file nameAddOn and it gets a random number. When I trace the var nameAddOn I get the number, but when I upload the file it doesent sent the nameAddOn var with the file name. I cant see anything wrong with the code.:[code]....
Right now it generates a random number from between -1022 and -16 (positions along the x axis).
However, sometimes the skyline movie clip only moves a few pixels and looks boring.
I added 200 pixels to the movement (Math.random() * (-1022 - -16) +200 ) and it looks better. However, sometimes this slides the movie clip past -1022 or -16 and off the stage.
How can I set the value to +200 without passing -1022 or -16?
I have created a random number displaying for every 5 seconds in dynamic text field with this code:Code:randomnumber = random(100);I want to keep every random number. Can I create like a log file to keep these number? Or is there any way to do this kind of work.
I am trying to make a banner like item for a website I am working on, I have 1 external text file 4 external swf's and 1 external .jpg.that I am trying to get to do this:on page load display img1.jpg for 60 seconds and then randomly select a number and then display the file that is associated with that number, for 60 seconds, and do it again, and again until all of the text and swf files have been displayed and then start over from the beginning,Now I can get it to select a random number and then pull up a file that is associated with that number with this code.I have shortened the time to see it work but still no avail.Example random code:
Dear Guys I Want To Generate A Random Number Between 2 Number BUT Without Generating 2 Same Number I Mean If For Example Already Generated Number "2" Next Time Did Not Generate It , Is There Any Solution
my listener.onComplete = function(selectedFile:FileReference) is fired without any file in the upload dir. if the file is small and I wait a bit I can see the file (through FTP) coming up on the server, but most of the times the "onComplete" if fired without any file being saved.
can I add something to this php code to make sure the file is uploaded?

I'm trying to create a shuffle button for my mp3 player. I don't want it to repeat any song in the xml playlist until all the songs are played. Is there to display a random number on the click of a button, without repeating any number in the array until all the numbers in the array are used?
Making a random number between lets say 0 and 99 is relatively straight forward using the Math.random class What is the best way to create 100 unique random numbers from between 0 and 99 where no random number is repeated?Would I make a random number, chuck it into an array then the next random number created is checked against the array, and if the number has been created before try for another number?
I am still using flash MX. I'm pulling random text from a textfile (array.txt) into movieclip instance textbox.[code]All is good, but now my question is if I can have a text effect as well. For example having the random quotes typed out as they appear.
I want to change the code a little bit by creating an Input Text. A random number will be typed in that text instead of having a fixed, pre-set number.
i have a project and i need that when a specific variable equals a specific value a random number decreases on the current number, its easy to make it decrease but i need to decrease instead of 4 to decrease a maximun of 5 and minimun of 3.ere is the code :
Is there any "mainstream" library used for this purpose? Commonly spread, well maintained, documented etc.I found these (using flash):
Uploadify - not many releases, latest 12/2010, no documentation (!) SWFUpload - latest release 03/2010, documentation fancyupload - looks buggy.
phpfileuploader - looks heavyweight, and looks commercial (?) I cannot read the licence (you can download it but are you allowed to use it forever without paying?) plupload New version of pure javascript (no flash) Valums' ajax upload claims to handle file size limit and progress bar, which is quite suspicious to me: these features require to guess the file size before the upload, which seems impossible in javascript (look also here). Or can it work?
im playing with the load random movie (but loading a random xml file instead) based on the wonderful tutorial from front page and was wondering whether anyone can show me the work around/upgrade to AS2 for this bit of script since im publishing to Flash 8 /AS2 and it doesnt work:
I have code that I got off line that will create a random number in the output tab. I put together an if else statement, however I can not figure out what how to call the random number into the if else statement. My last try was calling "n," However that did not work. I have a bit of the code that I am working with. I am giving only the first 3 but there are 13 in total, but as they are all the same just going to different frames I thought that it was not necessary to show them all.
function randRange(min:Number, max:Number):Number { var randomNum:Number = Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min + 1)) + min; return randomNum;
[code]...
If there is an easier way to get the same thing I am open. I just want it to start on a specific random frame (13 of them).
I have tried to create 'simple' (!) application where a user enters a 2 digit number in a input text box with instance named 'calc_num', clicks a button named 'cplay_btn' and a random number of the movieclip 'bf_mc' appears on the stage, between 1 and the number in the input box. I have tried numeous ways of writing the script., of which the example below is the most simple:
I'm building a dynamic Grid Gallery in AS2 consisting of 35 image spaces with over a 100 images to select from. I want the images to be selected randomly, but don't want any of the images to repeat. This is the code I have for the Randomnization. I figured that if the imageNumber equaled itself then it would continue to randomize until it did not equal it self, but this is not the case.
