I am trying to filter an XML based on multiple parameters that I have as an input.
I am trying to identify the parent nodes which have the matching records so that I can filter them out and process.[code]...
I'm trying to create a form that based on the users input would determine how many forms to generate dynamically. I have a base state with a combo box that contains 1-4. Bases on the users selection I would like to have the next state generate the number of forms. So if you user selects 2 and click next - 2 copies of the form would be display.
I'm just wondering if this is possible how i would go about doing this or if any one knows of any examples?
I am having a problem getting my xml to filter based on the contents of an input text box.
I have:
var myList:XMLList = myInput.item.name.(text() == str );
if I set str i.e.
var str:String = "Test";
it works but if I set
var str:String = myInput.text;
I'm relatively new to AS3. There's one thing that I don't quite understand about Sprites. I'm making a tile based game, and all the tile graphics for a level are inside one movie clip in each frame. Would I be able to go about creating multiple sprites based on the frames in said movieclip's timeline I would I have to go through and make a separate library graphic for each.
View 2 Replieshow use a button (or movieclip) to filter information out of a datagrid based on an external XML document. For example, say, the data were types of fruit along with their corresponding prices, but the user was only interested in the price of apples. To see only those records or rows with apples and the corresponding apple prices, the user would press the "Apples" button.
Creating the datagrid seems pretty straight forward, it's just the second part that's stumped me. Whatever the answer is would seem to go at the end where the "trace" is now. There seems to be many, many Web sites that sort of touch on this subject.I typed of the following from memory (I'm at work now), but I think this is pretty much what I have so far.
import fl.controls.dataGridClasses.DataGridColumn;import fl.data.DataProvider;
var food:XML;var urlLoader:URLLoader;var urlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("food_list.xml");urlLoader = new URLLoader();urlLoader.load(urlRequest);[code].............
I need to filter log messages based on the log level and a text appearing in the log message. These messages are in the following form: 2/23/2009 17:33:26.379 [INFO] TMSNG.Main Channelset configured with url [http://172.16.34.4:8080/tms-flux/messagebroker/streamingamf] 12/23/2009 17:33:26.380 [DEBUG] org.springextensions.actionscript.core.command.CompositeCommand Executing composite command '[object CompositeCommand]' in sequence
I already have the code below that creates 2 regular expressions (one for the level and one for the text) but I was wondering how I could combine these into one. I tried several combinations, but since my regexp skills are non-existing I couldn't get this to work.

I've been researching for days now and trying to learn as much as i can in regards to DataGrids, DataSets and filtering. What I'm wanting to do, is once I have my information populated into a datagrid, how would i go about filtering the information with an input text box. Not with a drop down, not with a check box, or a radio button but an input text box. In doing it this way, it would allow the user to define by what variable they want to search by.
It would be great if the filtering would search across all of the columns in the field and find everything it needs to regardless of the column its in, but for now, if there are columns set up like this:

Follow up question on Filtering XML based on multiple params - Flex.I was trying to create the Query part dynamically so that params and the keys take over for building the criteria part. Just to show:
//building a dynamic query like this
var q1:String = "descendants ("E1" ) == "111" )";
Alert.show("Query>>"+q1.toString()); // Output: descendants ("E1" ) == "111"
[code]....
A comment here Filtering XML based on multiple params - Flex says that the expression inside the parentheses should not be a string. Agreed.So, is there any other approach to filter out multiple parameters in XML than to use the descendants(), which currently is not working out because we are building the search query dynamically, based on the params searched?
I have a widget that is displaying an ATOM feed. The widget can be placed on any html page and the content can be changed by changing some parameters within the feed address. What I want to do however is make it so that the content changes based on the content that the page is on. So for example if the page the widget was on displayed content about cars, the widget would load feed content associated with cars. How to determine the context of an html page from within Flash?
View 1 RepliesI want to create an static drawing (say any animals like giraffe) using some points, lines, drawing etc. Now i want to update the drawing by passing the parameters say height of his legs, its width or its color.The parameters are supplied from the web page. The image will be a 2D image.I am searching on which technology should i implement this for more than 10 hours but cannot find any perfect solution.Right now i am thinking i can use Adobe flash in which i can do some programming to create an drawing and change the drawing by passing the parameters to a Flash file, i think we can pass it when we embed an flv.
View 2 RepliesI cant seem to input the tweenlite parameters using variables? For example if I have
ActionScript Code:
var myMovieClip:String = "test"+1; //Which equal - test1
Tweenlite.to(myMovie, 1, {_x:65, _y:117});
This code should just take the myMovie variable and replace it with 'test1' no? Even when I trace the myMovie variable it comes up with 'test1' which is correct!?
I am trying to come up with the best xml schema to support tag filtering. And then a method to filter the xml on an arbritary amount of tags. So here is the xml:

<videos>

I have a large amount of btn's that load full size images when clicked. I simply want to add a filter, scaleX and scaleY to each of those buttons and I know there is a better method then typing each btn name with an eventListener for the Mouse_Over and Mouse_Out events. I understand that I need to create a variable of a new filter and then apply it to the display object. Like so..
var glow:GlowFilter = new GlowFilter(0x0066FF, 1, 10, 10);function hover(event:MouseEvent):void{ pic1_btn.filter = new Array(glow); pic1_btn.scaleX = 1.02; pic1_btn.scaleY = 1.02;}pic1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, hover);[code].....
So if I were to continue this, I would have to type out pic1_btn, pic2_btn, pic3_btn and so on to apply a filter to each object and also type out the object name for each listener.
I am trying to read a XML file and check a parameter for duplicates of that parameter in the file. There could be up to 200 entries with this parameter which is a number. How can I check to see if there are any duplicates?
View 1 RepliesI would like to "filter" some information in a input text. This text is used for a login name.

Is there any way we can pass parameters from one flex application to the other flex application ?
I know we can pass parameters from module to application and vice versa.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying set a Boolean value based on whether anything has been entered in an Input Textfield. On the stage is a button and an Input text field. With the following code...
var isFilled:Boolean = false;
btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, tryit);
function tryit(event:MouseEvent){
if(testing.text == ""){
isFilled = false;
trace("The field is blank");
}else{
isFilled = true;
} trace(isFilled);
trace(testing.text);
}
When the button is pressed,
isFilled is traced as
true
Regardless of whether there's anything in the text field. It seems like the first part of the conditional is being skipped.
I looked at the following example in the AS3 Reference: [URL] It is unclear to me looking at the package example how to apply this in standard ActionScript 3 without packages to a Movie Clip resident in my Library that gets called at RunTime. how I would push the DropShadow filter onto my Movie Clip at RunTime?
View 6 RepliesI need to send a HTTP request (and get XML response) from Flash that looks similar to following:
http://example.com/somepath?data=1&data=2&data=3
I.e. having several parameters that share same name, but have different values.
Until now I used following code to make HTTP requests:
var resp:XML = new XML();
resp.onLoad = function(success:Boolean) {/*...*/};
resp.ignoreWhite = true;
[Code].....
But in that case I am loosing ability to do POST requests.
I want to have a variable which changes from time to time based on certain parameters.
For Example:
var poop:Number;
onEnterFrame = function(){if(donkey==1){poop = 2;}
if(donkey==2){poop = 5;}
}
But it doesn't work. I can't seem to change the value of "poop" with code. It only accepts a value that I place, ex. var poop = 2, but that doesn't let me change it.
I'm trying to build a text input field with a fixed width, multiline. So when you type and the input is more than the available space, the field increases in height... similar behavior to blogs and other html forms recently.
I was hoping there was some easy method or property to make this change, but if not, then does the text input throw some event when the text exceeds the width?
To achieve a zoom effect in our 2D flash game, we make the background of the game much bigger than the visible stage. This becomes a problem when the background is complex or when we apply a grayscale filter to the background. Is there a better way to do zoom? Or, is there a way to apply the filter to only a specific area of a movieclip?
View 2 RepliesI am trying to delete multiple rows in the sqlite table in my Adobe AIR app (runtime 2.5).
Here is the statement, using the "IN" operator:
"DELETE FROM mylist WHERE tdId IN (tdId1, tdId2, tdId3, ...)";
Where tdId1, tdId2, etc. will be determined at runtime based on which row(s) the user chooses to delete. The user can delete arbitrary number of rows.
I've tried something like:
//delete statement text
"DELETE FROM mylist WHERE tdId IN :tdId";
//delete statement parameters: take 1.
[Code].....
It would seem too much of trouble to chain these deletes with a callback. So I guess I am using my last resort: building the sql at runtime. Conclusion: Cached statements can't be used in these kind of situations...
I have a textfield that is filled by a querystring.
example: http://www.domainname.com?dName=Michael+&+Mary+Heatherbaum
myTextfield.text=myQueryStrings.dName.toUpperCase();
If the persons name is only 3 letters I want the font size to be 120 but based on the amount of characters, I would like to shrink the font size in order to fit the whole name inside the text field. I was playing with autosize, but couldn't get it to work.
making a textfield font size auto adjust accordingly?
I have a separate html page that does this with a php script,reating that php file which is just a form that allows users to enter a passcode that I provide them which will then simply link them to an external html page. Since I don't know about php, I am thinking a possible work around would be to have a text input box which would allow a user to enter (passwordA) then click Submit to load (pageX.hmtl) or they could enter (passwordB) and Submit would load (pageY.html)
