ActionScript 3.0 :: Counting Files In Folder With Same 2 Variables
Apr 8, 2010
Here is my code:
var vi3585 = 0;
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
//telling the loader that we are dealing with variables here.
loader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
//This is an eventlistener
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loading);
[Code] .....
I have dynamic number of files inside a folder. Every file has 2 variables in it vt11 and vt11s. I need a script that checks if the variables in the files have certain values and if it has this value than it counts this file. Basically what this script does is that it counts how many files in the folder have the same 2 variables in it and than displays this number in the text box. The above script always shows 1, no mater how many files with the same 2 variables are in folder.
i have situation in which i have some library projects, say
"DataProcessors","Lib2"
, included in my lets say "MainProject" (a web project) placed on directory
"E:in-debugMainProject.swf"
, when i build the project it automatically place all the libs .swf in its "E:in-debug" folder, but when i debug or run the project it it gives loading error that
I am creating a simple game where you must remember the name of a number of people. On the stage is a table with faces. Text appears, asking who, for example, "Mike" is. You then have to click the correct face. The questions appear randomly.I have come this far, but what I want to do is the following:
1) Restrict the number of random questions, presumably by adding a variable, with the value incrementing by each question, and tells the movie clip to go to the "game results" frame when reaching a certain number.
2) Keep track of the number of questions answered correctly/incorrectly. I suppose this is also done easily by adding a value for number of incorrect answers, which is increased for each incorrect answer, with the amount of correct answers being calculated like (total number of questions)-(incorrect answers).
3) Display the number of correct and incorrect questions on the "game results" frame. For example "You answered X number of questions correctly, and Z number of questions incorrectly".
I know that the pieces of code below should be used, but I don`t know how to put it all together, or where to put it. I suppose the main code should be in the first frame, and some should be in the buttons.
Code: var questionsAsked:Number;
Code: myValue++;
Code: if (questionsAsked == 20){ gotoAndStop("results"); }
1) Have a textfield that counts from 1 to 315 2) Once the value of the textfield reaches 315, pause for 2 seconds, and loop. 3) Do this until 15 seconds have passed, then stop.
What I've done so far to try and get this to work:On frame 1, I set up a little script like so:[code]The problem is, once it loops back to frame 1, my textfield that is being displayed continues to display 315, it won't display the counter going from 1 to 315. EVEN THOUGH IF I TRACE IT, you can see the script is working in the background just fine counting from 1 to 315 3 more times before 15 seconds is reached.Any idea why my textfield would be displaying the end value and not displaying the start (counter) value as it should?
I made a .fla file that uses an "include" to pull in a bunch of variables from a .as file. I would like to be able to count the number of variables in this file so that I can make the thing more "automatic" so that if someone else in my office adds more variables to the .as file it updates itself. Similar to the way you can count children using an XML file.
I'm making a desktop application and I need to get all of the file from in certain folder. Is this possible in AS? IE, I need to get the name of and import every file in the folder C://documents and settings/my pics.
What I want to do is to extract a zip file to a specific folder.I am using the code below that promts the user to choose which directory the zip should be extracted to and the extracts it succesfully.Now I would like define a fixed folder where the files should be axtracted to instead of letting the user decide.
Actionscript Code: function extractZIP():void { output.text = "extractZIP MANUAL"; zipOutput.browseForDirectory("Select Directory for extract");
I would like to build an image gallery in Flash with AS2 or AS3 that detects automatically the number of images available in a specific folder (say a level below the swf file).The goal is to don't have to config any xml files with the images to show.
I'm trying to get the name of every files from a specific folder into an array, but I get this error and I can't find why... TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
Here's my code: import flash.filesystem.File; function getFileList(directory:String):Array { var folder:File = new File(directory); var files:Array = folder.getDirectoryListing(); var fileList:Array; [Code] .....
I want to get a list images inside a folder but in order to do that, I need to get the names all the files inside a folder first. What flash class should I look into to allow me to do this?
EDIT:how about doing this using php? what should I return/echo on my php file?
I'm working on an application where client may upload any folder which may contain sub folders along with files. Is it possible to upload a folder instead of a file?
I want to embed all xml files of a given folder. For now I'm doing something like this:
[Embed(source="../somefolder/file1.xml", mimeType="application/octet-stream")] private var MyClass1:Class; [Embed(source="../somefolder/file2.xml", mimeType="application/octet-stream")] private var MyClass2:Class;
[Code]....
The list of XML files will grow to 10+ files, so I'm looking for a more elegant and dynamic way to embed those files.
The files should be embedded on compilation, to load them via URLLoader is not an option.
How can i get all the files in a given folder in flex project. the folder is within the project itself, under src folder, like.[code]I want to get the names of all jpg file in an array.. how it can be done programmaticly?
Our application is a ASP.NET + Flex running on IIS 6.0 server. On the client machines we run IE8 for display. IE creates temp files that seems to be taking up disk space. The Temporary Internet Folder size continues to grow seems to exceed the limit of 8MB - automatic recycle. When and under what conditions does IE delete files from the temporary folders?
I'm just beginning to learn actionscript (I'm using Flash CS4).There's this little project I'm working on as part of my learning activities.I have a folder with 12 jpgs and I want to randomly load 6 of them into 6 mc's that I already have in my stage. I say randomly because I would like to have different images everytime I play my little movie. I know that if the jpgs names where somewhat serialized (i.e. "pic1.jpg", "pic2.jpg", etc.) I could easily do it by creating a variable to contain the numeric part of the name and concatenate it with the rest of the name (or something like that).
The name of my jpgs are pure strings (like "basketball", "soccer", etc.).Can I (via actionscript) read those names and push them into an array even though the names are pure alphabetical strings?If this is possible, I think I can figure out the randomizing after pushing the names into the array.
Is it possible, either with AS1.0 or as2.0 to save a text file and create folders from flash in a specified directory?I know how to use sharedObject, but I was wondering if there was any way to save files to other locations or even create a folder to save them into.
I have this script (below) that picks out the files from a folder and loads them into the swf without saying specifically what the filenames are. At the moment they load in 1 at a time, how can I make it so they all load at once in a horizontal row with a whote gap between each of them?The whole point of this is so the user can just upload files to a folder and not have to touch any script etc.The plan is to put them into an infinate menu (that part is ready, its just the first bit thats causing me problems).
Code: delay = 3000; //----------------------- function loadPHP(loaded) { if (loaded) { imageArr = new Array();
How do I specify files to be accessed only in a specific folder via a crossdomain? <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "[URL]"> <cross-domain-policy> <site-control permitted-cross-domain-policies="[URL]"/> <allow-access-from domain="*.newdomain.com" secure="true" /> </cross-domain-policy>
I have a flash player which play mp3 files from xml. at now mp3 files are downloadable with software like internet download manager. if i move mp3 files to out of www and change xml location attribute to '../mp3filename.mp3' player can not play mp3. my question are
1) flash file can access files out of root folder
2) what is best way to protect files from download?
I've got this Flash project where there are a number of different photo galleries that hold images. Now, I want Flash to be able to see how many pictures are available within a folder so it can create the right number of thumbnails.
At this time, you might think... well there are numerous topics about this issue and PHP is the answer. But I perhaps have a workaround and I was wondering whether it is an 'acceptable' one or if it poses to many problems.
How about I let flash create an 'experimental' loader that loads images rapidly, theoretically till infinity. This loader starts with 1.jpg, followed by 2.jpg, 3.jpg, etc... (also the names of the images inside the folder obviously). There is also an eventlistener added to the contentLoaderInfo stating:
As soon as Flash is trying to open the file, let's say, 51.jpg and this file does not exist, the Event described above fires. This event will then tell Flash to stop counting since it apparently reached the end. The experimental loader will then be removed and the normal thumbnail loaders will be created up till 50.jpg.
I'm building an swf that's suppose to work locally (offline).That swf is like a menu for some other swf that the user will download and will be prompted to put them in the same folder of the main swf.What I want to do is the main swf to be able to recognise which swf the user have downloaded in order to show them 'available' on main menu.Is there a way to check the folder destination for swf files or something?
I recently got the following code from one of your tutorials and am wondering why it is that when I try to change the .jpg images to .png images, the images no longer appear in the swf file. Does flash no allow .png files to be loaded.The reason that I need the files to be png is because the have to have a transparent backgroung.[code].....
I have build a flash form that uses php to save variables to a web folder on my site in a text file. There is a .swf file with dynamic txt fields in the same folder it which pulls the data from the txt file. It doesnt seem to pull it as real time as I would like. sometime just once and not after that.When I update the form the text file saves to the web folder ok, but I have to refresh the link to pull the data in or empty browsing history etc.is there a way around anyone can think of so everytime I update the flash form the data come in straight away or after a few seconds.
I'm working on an image gallery in Flash that plays a slideshow of different images I have on my hard drive. I've got the basics of it working, but I'm still stuck on something. If my images are in the same folder as the Flash project file or a sub-folder of it, then it works fine. However, I can't figure out how to load images from some other folder. In my case, the Flash project is located at "~/Programming/Flash/Projects/slideshow/" and the images I want to load are at "~/Pictures/Gallery/". Using a normal path didn't work so I figured I could access them with a file:// path, but that doesn't work either gives me "Error #2035: URL Not Found"). Is there a specific way you have to format the file path in Flash, or is it just not possible?
I am having problems with building my webpage with Flash. I have imported the the swf files I want in my library but when I try to put them into folders my computer seems to seize up and takes a few minutes to do the job and can be very slow and I am unable to anything on PC while it is doing this. I have not incounted this problem before on my PC but I have had it for over 5 years now and I am due to buy a new PC in spring next year when Windows 7 is released on all new PCs. I am using windows XP with all the updates available plus upgraded to 1GB memory last year. Is my PC to old to work with FLASH CS3 or is it another problem entirely?
I'll ONLY recieve an "Error #3000: Illegal path name" if I try to open a file which is placed inside the app-folder of the air. If the file is somewhere else outside of the app-folder it works.
private var file:File = File.documentsDirectory; public function download():void{ var pdfFilter:FileFilter = new FileFilter("PDF Files", "*.pdf");
[Code]....
When i try to get the same file and copy it to another place it's doing fine.
Why that? Something special to do if i wanna open files which are inside the appfolder? It also don't work in debug mode - bin-debug.
