ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash XML: Pick And Choose Specific Data And Disregard Other?
Mar 6, 2012
I managed to write some PHP which writes some XML including the following:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<subjects>
<subject>
<ID>1</ID>
[code]...
And well... this is where I'm stumped. What I need to do is read "position" and "menu_name_ice" (or in fact any of the "menu_name_*" but let's start with the first one) and, using Kirupa's excellent tutorial, that worked just fine except I need to read just one "subject" at a time, not all of them (there are plenty more, all in the same syntax).I'm using "position" to determine the posting order of "menu_name_*" to the stage and "visible" to determine whether or not to do so.

So. Basically I'm trying to create a news-ticker that feeds of an XML-page that I don't have control over. It rolls horizontally across the screen. (Eventually...)
I'm able to access the different parts of the XML and insert them, but only one kind at the time.
The XML is build with several nodes called 'program' like this[code]...

I need to have a data field that the user will enter in a zip code, hit submit, and have a specific movie clip load, based on their entry. There aren't different movie clips for every single zip, but there will be 20 or so different clips that would load, based on whether or not that zip falls within a certain group. For instance, if someone enters in a zip for Washington DC, I would need to load a clip that shows that general area ... DC, VA and MD.

I am doing a project that consists of AS3 in flash an importing an external xml data that will populate dynamic data in text fields in my flash project. The xml is all ready set up (pre existing) data. The structure of the XML Code looks like this:
<GlobalDynamicData xmlns:xsi"[URL]">
<schema version 1.0.0>version 1</schemaversion>
<DynamicDataFields>
<DynamicDataField>
<DataField> AlertOn</DataField>
<DataValue>0</DataValue
[Code] .....
which works fine,
My question to everyone is How do tell flash to pull specific dynamic data if all the datafields are exactly the same... I would think all data fields that are named have to be diffrent so when you script the code you are telling flash to go to that data source and pull from that record. If you have the same naming convention how does flash know which one to pull from if they all have the same name..

Given the following XML code:
<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 trying to make a website where you can navigate by keyboard. I'm having difficulties getting the flash file to pick up the listener when upon first logging in. Here's my website: [URL] If you click on the screen you can then press the right arrow to expand the menu. when you log onto the website I want to make it right off the bat where you press the right arrow key and the menu near the top will expand.
ActionScript Code:
stop();
listen = new Object();
listen.onKeyDown = function() {
switch (Key.getCode()) {
case Key.RIGHT :
gotoAndPlay(2)
break;
}}
Key.addListener(listen)
Again, the only way to get that keylistener to pick up pressed keys is to initially click on the screen. Is there any way to get around that?

I have recently been using Charles the debugging app. And noticed a very chatty app named skyrocket (a very very cool slide presentation app) sending a lot of data across the wire. It is built in flex by the looks and I was wondering why they had chosen to send their data using base64 and not amf. Is it because they don't want to be locked into the flash platform? Or could there be another reason. Is it to store it as XML in the database as they don't want to be dealing with amf when handing data to other services/clients (iPhone etc).

For example, when users are connecting to this application they are given a userid var, then it's inserted into the array. So, i'm using chosenUser = usersOnlineArray[Math.round((Math.random()*usersOnlineArray.length))]; to pick another random user. But i need to make sure it doesn't pick the userID they personally were assigned so they don't end up getting themselves. how would i use that code but tell it to "remember, make sure you dont pick userid" maybe I could do something like

I am developing a web based multi-player board game and wondering what the best language for the UI would be? Its a board game similar to Go but a lot simpler.I have two options flash or the much touted HTML5 with JS. I have to learn both though I have basic knowledge of JS.The problem with flash is I have to pay for the server component but the UI development could be easier and have a richer look and feel to it. With HTML5 + JS there is no cost involved but the UI development I feel will be clunky and not smooth. This I am not sure.

I got some text that has a background, and the backgroud color can change to any color.
So, I need to find a way to figure if my text will be readable or not, the text should change to black (for example, yellow background) or white ( dark blue background ) if the contrast is not good enough.
So, is there a method to do this?, what would you use to make this work?

First off I am new to using Flex, but I have pieced this app together with help from online tutorials and information. Basically my app is like a directory of names, addresses and so forth, but I also have additional fields of "week" and "day". What I am trying to do is have a list that shows only the names of, for example Week 1 - Monday. Below is some of the code I am using to help you understand what I am trying to do.
<s:List dataProvider="{AddDoctorDatabase.doctors()}" labelField="name" change="onDoctorSelected(event)"
left="0" right="0" top="0" bottom="0"></s:List>

I've learned recently that you can use txt file for simple data too, so I include it here as well.TXT contains (not sure if correct, should have same data kind as the xml):
point1&x=1&y=2
point2&x=1.5&y=2.5
point3&x=5&y=-5
XML contains:
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
<points>
<point1 x="1" y ="2"></point1>
[code]....
What I have:
- I have 2 dynamic textfields: text1 (variable: outPut1) and text2 (variable: outPut2)
- I have 1 input textfield: (variable:inPut)
- I have 1 button
What I'm trying to do:
- When typing point1 in the input textfield and then pressing the button,(onRelease), outPut1 textfield should show the number 1 and outPut2 textfield should show 2.
- Similar, when typing point3 in the input textfield and pressing the button, outPut1 should show the number 5 and outPut2 should show the number -5.
-It is not only for these three points, it should be applicable with say 50.000 to 200.000 more of such points, each with different x and y values.
To sum it up:So Flash (with AS2) should screen the nodes or txt (for those point names) on what was inserted in the input textfield, then fill the corresponding attributes (XML) seperately in the textfields and all that after the button was pressed. The same deal if it was done with txt, if possible (have read that with txt, loading of data would be faster?).

I have an sqlite db in an application and am stuck on how to pass the data that is retrieved from the db into multiple textboxes. I can get the first selection passed into the components just fine, but my problem comes in when I try to pass a second data selection into a different textbox while keeping the data from the previous selection the same in the first textbox.Basically, the user selects a recipe and that recipe is passed into textbox 1 Then another recipe is selected and that recipe is passed into textbox 2. *The recipes are selected from a different view, if that adds anything to the problem. After being selected, the view is returned to where the textboxes are.I'm not looking for someone to code this for me, but rather on how I would do it. I should be able to do that. =)My Text Components
<s:Group id="group1" x="412" y="156" width="200" height="206" contentBackgroundAlpha="1.0" >
<s:TextInput id="tText1" x="22" y="30" width="157" height="25" fontSize="12"
text="{data.kTitle}"/>
