ActionScript 3.0 :: Delete The First Character In An Item In An Array
Apr 20, 2011
How would I go about removing only the first character of an item in an array? All my items are strings, so for example I want to turn this:
pseudo code:
Array["01234","01234"]
to this:
Array["1234","1234"]
Or if that isn't possible, I could just turn each element into a string, modify it and re-Array it. The issue is using split(charAt(0)) isn't correct syntax. I just don't know what function to call and every search turns up only replacing specific characters, not character at a position.
I am working on a project where there are 10 questions and user can answer the question or skip the questions. I want to track the number of questions (which questions) the users have skipped.

I want to know if there is a method or some code to add new items to an array, but it want the items have the name of the buttons's instance name, or the label's name, so when i push the button, it adds its name to an array. Here is my code:
ActionScript Code: tauri.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, addAddress); abydos.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, addAddress); tollana.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, addAddress); dialNow.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, dialTo); var tauriAddress:Array = ["tauri","abydos"]; var newAddress:Array = new Array(); function addAddress(event:MouseEvent):void { newAddress.push();

I'm trying to add an item to an array, but when I do, it keeps the results (prizeField) from before and adds the new ones to it. i.e. at the beginning if I push a string to the array I have 4 items. If I push another, I then have 9. Then 15 and so forth. Here is my code:
Code: var myFlexParent:Object; var prizeArray:Array = ["apples", "bananas", "cranberries"]; var textFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat("Cairo", 48);[code].....
I know that I need some sort of removeChild() in there, but I cannot get it to actually work.
