Actionscript 3 :: String Replace Characters With MML?

Oct 26, 2011

What i'm trying to do is to first of all remove all special characters from a hard coded tweet. What I want to do after is to convert each letter into a specific tone, using MML (Music Macro Language).When i play the tweet via the sound library sion after my attempted replacing i only get five tones through. What am I doing wrong? I'm guessing it's simple, but I don't know anything.I'm coding Actionscript 3 in FDT, which is all very new to me, as is regexp.

public function translateTweet() {
var myPattern:RegExp = /[~%&\;:"',<>?#]+/g;
var tweet : String = "@cupofjoakim AN EXAMPLE string! :D #hi11expo";[code].......

Flash 10 :: Certain Characters Aren't Recognized By Text Input?

Mar 17, 2011

I have a text input box on a site i'm currently building. Problem is, when testing it, some letters don't register as being pressed (and no, its not my keyboard before you ask hehe).

The letters which don't show up are, "B,C,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L,M,N,Q,T,U,V,X,Y,Z". In fact, the only letters that are recognized and displayed when I type into it are: "A,D,O,P,R,S,W".

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash String.Replace Won't Replace "%20" From An Original String

Jun 22, 2011

I've got a strange situation where I'm replacing the text in a string that I've taken from an XML, but the .replace function for the string keeps failing. I've tried running the example given on the Adobe site, so I know the value I'm trying to replace ("%20") isn't at fault - it's something about the string I have! I've included the code below, but it seems correct. Is there a particular tip I should know when taking XML values into AS3? I'm putting them in strings for this project.

Php :: AS2 Multi String Replace?

Nov 27, 2011

First my AS2 code:

txt.html=true;

First question is why my flash function always replace only first url? What I'm trying to do is send string from flash input textfield by PHP to mySQL table. Then, when flash will load it again all urls in my flash textfield will be clickable.Of course I can use preg_replace in PHP:

$comments = $_POST['comments'];
$comments = preg_replace("/([^w/])(www.[a-z0-9-]+.[a-z0-9-]+)/i", "$1http://$2", $comments);[code]....

I can also use some PHP function which will check whether sended data from flash already contains clickable url's, but if I need add another link in edited string, preg_replace not fire then...
