ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash List Box - Parsing XML Data
Dec 2, 2010
I want to display a list box in a different way. I have uploaded the image as well i.e., what exactly am looking for and how the list box has to look. I am parsing the xml data and it's coming fine in list box. but my requirement is the look n feel of list box.
Flash code :
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xmlData:XML = new XML();
xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, LoadXML);
xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest("news1.xml"));
function LoadXML(e:Event):void {
xmlData = new XML(e.target.data);
ParseNews(xmlData);
[Code] .....
I have a flash application which contains a "dynamic text"with a var name "myVar" and an instance name "dt_txt".I have a button to which I attached the code: ____________________________________ on (release) { var lv = new LoadVars(); lv.load ("[code].............
I have intercepted x-amf data being posted to a website from my computer by a flash application. I have the collected POST data in hex form. While some of it has translated directly to text, the rest is showing wierd symbols which probably means they're flash objects. How do I parse this data to get meaningful output outta it?
Basically, I need a script/program/anything that will take in amf data in the hex form, and output text and flash objects...
i'm still transitioning from as2 to as3, i'm having trouble with parsing XML data to Multi dimensional array, below is the onComplete handler which is succesfully tracing 'event.target.data' but outputs 'A term is undefined and has no properties' when tracing _vein_data[0][0].xPos. I'm guessing there is a easier way to approach it than this attempt
<set name="thumbsBooks"> <set name="pdf"> <thumb>Data I want to access</thumb> <thumb>Data I want to access</thumb>
[code]....
I want to be able to get the data contained in the "thumb" tags using the "name" attribute value of the parent tag as a selector, something like you would do in jQuery: $('set[name="pdf"]').find('thumb');Is there a method like this in Action Script 2 (can't use AS3)?
I'm having a little difficulty with parsing some information from a variable in flash.When a user has completed a form I can get a mailto command to open a mail application and post the answers into an email.I am struggling with posting same information to be handled via a php mail script.Here is the action script code
New to AS3, and just went through the great Kirupa tutorial on parsing XML using AS3 My trace output is fine, but when I try to send that parsed data to a text box, only the last XML node appears in the text box (named dynamicText_txt).Here's my XML:
Code: <ts><verticals> <alarms><alarmQ1>Is there an alarm?</alarmQ1><alarmQ2>What component is the alarm on?
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 make a XML connector component parse a XML document.In a node, there is a "<br />" (return to line in HTML)
<book> <page>
Here some text and a <br /> here ! the code s broken up here
</page> </book>
My XML connector considere the <br /> as the beginning or the end of a node !...How to avoid this <br /> or other any HTML element when parsing some XML ?
what is the best method for loading external XML (with inherent HTML) content into Flash and into the TextArea component?i have an image loader and a TextArea together on the screen. a "story" is loaded which will present a series of images (in the image loading) associated with a corresponding text (in the TextArea). a "story" has multiple image/text sections that are navigatied through with FRWD/BACK buttons. any given section can also have multiple sub-sections or "frames".
[URL]
below is my proposed sample XML structure. i want Flash to recognize how many sections and frames within sections there are in each story XML document - in order to generate a corresponding navigation structure (a tab for each section). HTML content will be immediate availble to loadinto TextArea as user move forward in sequence with nav. and images references can also be preloaded into available MC containers to be swapped into place as user navigates forward in sequence. also need to read and store attributes for each node in the XML to come up in MCs in sequence. and must also be able to parse XML in a way to place simple HTML formatted content (within XML) into the TextArea.would Arrays be used?
<story title = "Story Title"> <section num = "1" title = "Section One Title" > <frame image = "1.jpg" caption = "caption text here"><b>Content</b><br><br>content
I am having a problem parsing xml data, I know how to get it into as3, and that is working pretty well after following a brilliant tutorial on kirupa:[URL] But I am having a problem tracing the data that I want. Seemingly it is connecting to the database and is working in that sense but when I try to trace data I am getting a couple problems. The first is that I need to somehow specify a value of a single item to get the rest of the data. Here is the xml:
I'm being passed the following from our ASP developers: Code: DefaultValue1=Photo1.jpg::Taken 2-24-05~Photo2.jpg::Taken 2-24-05 Now I need this obviously to show an image in a placeholder and then Taken 2-24-05 Would be text for a textfield.
creating a frontend for a podcasting website. It will basically run from an xml feed produced by podpress. This isn't particularly important.My question is, how do I import xml entries with colons ":" in them. For example the line highlighted below.
//request is made to PHP script function completor(evt:Event):void { var getor:URLLoader = URLLoader(evt.target);//works var vars:URLVariables = new URLVariables(getor.data);//doesn't work! } getData.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completor);
The first line outputs something like "&var1=something&var2=something_else". I just can't get why when I try to parse the data from the loader object into variables (second line) Flash simply stops and all the code after doesn't get executed.
So I have now tested my file with a test xml and it works just fine, but I need to get the dat from the server so it becomes dynamic. I've gotten some php to generate a xml document, but I can't get it to "be" an xml, it's just formatted like it and it's a String.
Can I somehow convert the String to a XML variable, or will I have to cut up the string and get out the info I need.
In the second case, what would be the best way to parse the data in php (what formatting)?
And with all those < > " = symbols I think I would have a hard time to break it apart. The result should become an Array which contains project Objects with properties and another Array to hold file Objects with their own properties.
But the general question is: String to XML, how? If not possible, how to build this xml shaped String so it can be picked apart easily?
I have a what I thought was a fairly simple scrolling number list (like a lotto ticker) and am trying to parse the XML data to display the digits for some reason I am having some trouble. Perhaps I could play the mc of the spinning numbers and then stop it and just import a number into a text field?
private function loadXML() : void { var loader : XMLLoader = new XMLLoader(); loader.addEventListener(XMLLoaderEvent.COMPLETE, onXMLComplete, false, 0, true); loader.addEventListener(XMLLoaderEvent.ERROR, xmlErrorHandler, false, 0, true); loader.load("testRBS.xml"); //userStandingsXML.asp [Code] .....
How can I parse my incoming string returned by server and get values?
Look at the code below, that is part of a class I am writing:
Code: var PHPURLRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(MyServerURL+"myscript.php"); var PHPsendVars:URLVariables = new URLVariables(); var PHPLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
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 have a Game-sprite representing a game room with up to 3 players, it works ok. And would like to populate a List component with those Game's, based on an XML data coming from a socket.I've prepared a simple test case demonstrating my problem -ListTest.fla (should have a List component in its Library):
I build a flash video player which works fine when exported to swf. However when I publish it (F12) does not loading the xml file. As a result video player stuck to frame 2 (where presented a List with video titles and with click on title plays the specific video). The xml link does not ends to .xml. Here is my code about xml loading. I try to change the Flash Player from 10.2 to 9 but I have the same problem.In addition some buttons in frame 2 does not works I suppose because of "Stuck" from xml loading.( Work fine when exported in swf!) Flash Player version: 10.2, Actionscript:3.0, Flash Professional CS 5.5, fps:24, size: 850px(w)x480px(h). Code from FRAME 2.
I'm having trouble retrieving the value of a multi-select list component. It always traces the last value selected, but I need to trace all values to parse the data.

I have No problems inserting data from flash to PHP into MySQL,it's sendind them back properlly.All I'd like to see happen is for one row of data to be inserted into a dynamic text field. here's what i've got if i access this php file, it prints out a vertical list from a single MySQL row,I was happy.
$query = "select row from table"; $result = mysql_query($query, $db);
while($row = mysql_fetch_row($result))[code]...
and Instead of the vertical list (which i would love to see)i get an unparsed data array.
