ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Convert Date To Unix Timestamp
Sep 25, 2009
In one of my Flash-applications the users can save sales they do, and one important thing is the date for the sale and the user have to have the possibility to select the date he want's to. Therefore I got three drop-down-meny to registrate the date of the sale: one for day, one for month and one for year. Is there any way I can convert these three into a Unix Timestamp? (I save the data via PHP intro MySql-database).
I have a timestamp in the form "1239315541" and I need to convert it to a readable date.How can I do that ? Is there a function that I can use ?(I am using Flash 8 and ActionScript 2.0.)
I'm trying to get the current unix timestamp in AS3 via:
var date:Date = new Date(); var unix:int = date.time; trace(unix);
For some reason I get:
2775219874
But when I use time() in PHP around the same time, I get:
1321330282
I don't understand? I could of course request the timestamp from PHP via URLLoader, but I'd rather get it working properly without needing this if possible.
I'm tryin to fiind the time elapsed from a Unix Timestamp.
[Code]... So it's still returning the time from 1/1/1970.... Any way to make it return something like this: Mon Jan 02 01 1:2:35 GMT-0800 0000 or something like that so I can get the days, hours, minutes, and seconds elapsed.
On my Flex project, when I call a File's modificationDate property, it's being displayed as Wed Mar 7 20:14:07 GMT+0800 2012. how to convert that to a UNIX timestamp?
[code]The row object consists data for different columns of a datagrid. dp.push(row) pushes the data onto the datagrid.Columns with index 3 and 4 have type of "DATE" with whole time stamp being displayed. Is there any method in flex which will help me extract the monnth/day/year from date or timestamp for that matter.
Programming in Flex 4.5I'm getting a date as a String.I don't know what date or hour I'm getting.I want to convert the string to date and take only the hours & minutes.
is possible to convert a string to a date in actionscript 3. The program is simple, I need a user to enter a date using a text input field, then convert this to a date type in order to perform a calculation, the result of which is output to the user.
I have so far only been able to input and output a string. I can also output a date that is hardcoded, but have no way of using a date the user enters...
Here is my code:
//Add event listenter to button, when clicked call getInput method btnGo.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,getInput); //Create an empty string variable
I want to convert a string to a date and I don't know how to do it. In my project, I load a XML file to get some date and compare them to the actual time, if the date is in the future I will add a movieclip to the stage with the info on that date, else it will do nothing.
Here is the code: //--- load the date info --- import flash.net.*; var xmldate:XML; var datelist:XMLList; var loaderdate:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); loaderdate.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, whendone); [Code].....
And I have this error after running: 1120: Access of undefined property thedate.
I retrieved the time from MySQL DateTime column and it's formatted just like this. "2010-04-30 04:12:07"How do I convert a MySQL DateTime so that I can display two seperate fields, I'd like to get "April, 30th, 2010" and "4:12 AM" separately.
i need to convert a given number to a date via function...
what i mean is lets say i give a number 8 to a function and it returns the correct date from 8 days from today(a. la. 29/12/20012). as that seems simple enough i also need it to work when the number is 2000 with correct month etc..
Do I am able from some numbers like 132145 to make them look like that "13:21:45 Today" or "13:21:45 Tomorrow" !? I see that in AS2 this is able to do but don't know how to do it in AS3
In flex (flash builder 4) I have a Date() property that I am passing to Zend AMF (php) and I want to store that (as well as other data) in mongoDB. Mongodb is complaining about the date because it comes across as a Zend_Date object, which appears to be an object containing several properties and Mongodb is saying that it can not accept blank properties. So, I take that to mean it needs to be converted to something else before I can store it? If so, how do I do that?
At the moment I have taken the approach of converting the Zend_Date object in to a date string to store it (in php): $object->readyDT=date("m/d/Y H:i", strtotime($object->readyDT)); //convert to string
That works fine, and I have a string in mongodb of that date. Now, when I load the date from MongoDB, I need to convert it back to a Zend_Date so it properly converts back in to a Date() object in flex (I have to check that it's not blank or it throws errors in php): if (isset($object->readyDT) && $object->readyDT!=="") $object->readyDT = new Zend_Date($object->readyDT, 'MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm');
This all works, but it seems like there should be a much easier way to take a Date() from flex and get it stored in MongoDB via Zend AMF/PHP. ?
