I have a 6mb XML file, resetting my script timout in CS4 doesn't help. (it does have some unnecesarry HTML in it I could probably do away with, but that would be the wrong direction I think)I can't even trace it.I am loading it into an :XML object and trying to work with it, but all to no avail.
Here is my Class:
Code:
/**

The for each loop wont iterate for some reason, but the for loop will, then again, it always crashes me with:
Code:
Error: Error #1502: A script has executed for longer than the default timeout period of 15 seconds.
(which as I stated above I reset, but as this is a .as file, I don't think it allows that.)
I want to parse a dae file for getting the texture name. But when I am trying to read dae as xml it read the entire dae file but the problem is that I can't access it's elements

In my flash, the socket server returns some xml data that I need to parse, but it seems that the only way to start the XML object is with the XML.Load() which loads an external file, but my XML file is already loaded into a variable
trace("raw: "+msg); msgArea.htmlText += "update remote player loc"; var playerLocXMLOb = new XML(msg);
I am trying to parse data from a user created .txt file and convert it into an Array. This data will eventually be used to output an .xml file or to generate html. The user has no experience or knowledge of XML otherwise there would be no need for this post, I would just parse XML. The data will be set up as a group of items (term and definition, question and answer as well as a type to determine the attributes of the item) like so:
1. How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop? a. The world may never know. t. ML
2. What is the square root of 69? a. 8 something. t. SA
I am currently able to allow a user to have an Open Dialog box to open a local .txt file from their computer. I am also able to read the data and trace it via actionscript. I cannot however split the data where I want to into an array. I cannot use '' to split at as the data from the .txt file may sometimes be multi-line for the question or answer.
So I need to be able to; a) split on a number with a . and a space (eg. '1. ') b) split on a-e with a . and a space (eg. 'a. ') and c) split on 't. '.
Here is the relevant code I have so far:
ActionScript Code: import flash.text.*; import flash.net.FileReference; var tf:TextField = new TextField();
[Code]....
I was just trying to hardcode a couple things like splitting on 'a. ' and 't. ' but it only does one split, whichever comes last.
I'm trying to call to a date in an external txt file (losttime.txt).The date is written as: 2012, 1, 09 in the .txt file.I've loaded the txt file and need to calculate the amount of time between that date and today.Right now, I have the date set in the lostTimeDate variable, but need it to call to the date in the txt file instead. I assume this has to do with Parsing the date, but for the life of me, cannot figure it out.Here is my code:
var myTextLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); myTextLoader.load(new URLRequest("losttime.txt"));[code].......
I am loading in a bunch of text (and other data) from an XML file into Dynamic Text Fields on my stage via an XML.load call. Below is one example of one entry of my XML file:
PHP Code: <stillDescriptions><text>Mack Trucks of North America came to us tothem create marketing m
I need to load in a large CSV file (>1MB) and parse it. Generally this is quite easy to do by splitting first on linebreaks and then commas. The problem is though that some entries contain Strings that include their own commas. When this spreadsheet is converted to CSV, the lines containing commas are wrapped in quotes.
I've written a parser that first escapes all the commas in these strings, then splits it on linebreaks and then commas, and then unescapes the values again.
This is quite a slow process for such a long string, as I need to iterate through the whole string. Does anyone know a faster or more optimised method of dealing with this?
i have a large text file full of several chunks of binary data, each chunk separated by "---"
so it looks like this:
[Code]...
I have loaded the data in an untyped variable. var data:* = URLLoader(event.target).data; so data contains all the text file content. my problem is that i want to parse this text file and put each chunk of binary data into a ByteArray.
any ideas of how i can go about doing that? i have never dealt with untyped variables before so i am not sure what to do. and i don't want to lose the binary data representation by casting (if that happens).
I am totally new to actionscript (barely could set up the IDE environment for Linux). I have trouble parsing an xml file containing some namespaces. All the tutorials and samples i found online are not working for me. the file looks like this:
I got a problem with adobe flash cs4 : I can't launch it normaly and its says that a fatal error has occured.. I really don't know what I must do.. Please, help me.... I've just lost like 3 or 4 files of adobe by trying to reinstall it.
I have a couple of questions that I hope someone can answer. I have this ActionScript that reads the XML file into the flash movie. The poblem is this: The XML is in this format:
This is my first day to try and use XML to display dynamic text in Flash. My skillset is weak with AS3 and Flash, but I found some tutorials online and I have managed to successfully display the first record in mytest.swf. However I also seem to have all records displaying in each dynamic text box as well. My loop isn't stopping after each record. It's reading everything. And dumping the results into each text field.
I need to only display each record individually. Once I accomplish that, I will need to include some form of navigation. Lets say buttons that perform a NEXT, PREVIOUS, LAST, FIRST type function. Then lastly, I'll need to include some type of search navigation option by item number. I assume that I'd have to have a second screen that links to my primary results screen with an input form for the item number.
I am accessing an xml document in actionscript, I know flash can see the xml as I am tracing it but when I add the .text() funtion to my trace to strip out the tags by trace doesn't see anything.
function LoadXML(e:Event):void {xmlData = new XML(e.target.data);ParseXML(xmlData);}function ParseXML(thexmlInput:XML):void { trace("XML Output");trace("------------------------");trace(thexmlInput.wrapper.page);
This text traced a value of undefined.I have tried to research this and so far all I have been able to find out, is that this is a XML namespace and is very easily handled in as3. Unfortunately I have to use as2.How do I parse out this information into a dyamic text fields?
I'm trying to make a banner which the user can edit his Preferences in a xml file. My xml file looks like below.[code]that means image 1 has three textboxes with fontsize: 14,18,30.now i've the following problem.as you can see i've get function from my billboardData_array i want to call this get function in other classes to get the correct data i need. [code]this function returns the last fontsize but i need to loop through it to display text on the stage.
I have an xml file and im putting this xml file in an XML object
var receivedXML:XML
In some function, I have:
var xmlList:XMLList = new XMLList(); xmlList = receivedXML.some.attributes.here; object.functionDoStuff = xmlList;
The function functionDoStuff takes xmlList as its argument:
function functionDoStuff(xmlList:XMLList) {}
When does receivedXML get parsed, is it when we assign it to xmlList, or is it when it gets used in the next instruction by the function functionDoStuff?
I have Visual studio with AS and Flex 4 installed into it. Can someone provide me with simple sample code and a simple xml file (can just be like a=8083&b=8873) and grabbing the data for a and b and putting this into 2 different arrays of size 1 (since its simple).
Is it possible to parse variables between different swf-files? Say that Ive got this main movie to which I load an external swf-file. Can I then send data from this externally loaded swf to the main movie?
I`m trying to load different texts from one XML file into my pre-defined areas. It works with one text....I gt to my frame where the as below is and the text gets loaded. BUT how do I need to proceed if I want to go to another frame and have a different text loaded from the same XML file?
Code: function loadXML(loaded) { if (loaded) { _root.inventor = this.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
i just created an image gallery. i used the kirupa tutorial as a rough guideline, so i changed up a few things. it works fine. im wanting to use the xml file as a config file, but that part is not working.
