How do you turn a date of bith into months. im doing this:
var dobDate: Date = child.CHILD_DOB; //10th Feb 2008var daysSince:uint = Math.floor((nowDate.time - dobDate.time) / DateTime.DAY); var monthsSince:uint = Math.floor( daysSince / AppConst.DAYS_IN_MONTH);
trace(daysSince) //603 - correct
trace(monthsSince) //20 - incorrect (it should be 19)

AppConst.DAYS_IN_MONTH = 30
DateTime.DAY = 86400000

I'll start off by saying I'm a newbie, just putting that out there. How do you make a turn by turn multiplayer flash game? I don't know if an engine is made in AS3, PHP, Javascript, or whatever,I made my game already, it's just that it isn'tmultiplayer yet. Basically, there are lines, and each player crosses out a number of lines, and the last player to cross out a line is the loser. I want it where one user crosses out some lines, then presses End Turn, then the other does their turn and then presses End Turn to allow the other player to move his cursor. But how can I get both players to see the same frame and only have one player have the ability to move the cursor during a turn? Is there some easily adaptable multiplayer engine for flash for newbies out there

I am sorting xmllist profilexml. In the list dates and months are sorted using SortField. It is sorting up to September month. After that Oct, Nov, and Dec are coming and displaying on the top in the datagrid.
finalList = new XMLListCollection(profileXml);
var sortL:Sort = new Sort();
sortL.fields = [new SortField("startDate", true)];
[Code]....
<startDate>2/15/2011</startDate> as per my understanding it is sorting until 0-9 numeric fields only. Is there anything I need to add in this code for numeric sorting?

I have a calendar written in Flash (ActionScript). The calendar displays events on it. I am seeing an issue today (March 31) with any months that have less than 31 days in them. Here's the code:
myDateate = new Date();
myDate.setUTCFullYear(2011);
myDate.setUTCMonth(3); //April
myDate.setUTCDate(21);
Alert.show(myDate.toDateString()); <-- Shows May 21, 2011
This is also broken for ANY month that has less than 31 days. So if I was to substitute 1 (feb), 5 (june), 8 (sept), or 10 (nov), it will show me the following month rather than the month I specify. If I set my system clock to April 1, the alert shows the correct date I specified which is April 21, 2011. Has anybody else experienced this kind of behavior? This is also broken if i use the non-UTC methods.

I am working with a Flex DateTimeAxis. I have a scenario where the DateTimeAxis sometimes creates duplicate months on the Axis. The month label unit is generated based on a min/max value that is supplied to the DateTimeAxis, it is NOT generated by the series data as far as I can tell. In other words, the duplication does not exist within the data supplied to the chart, but is part of automatic label generation process that DateTimeAxis will execute when supplying a min/max value for the axis.[code]...

I have to validate that 1) the end Date is not less than the start Date and 2) the difference between the two UTC Dates is not more than 12 months. To do this, I need a monthDifference function:
public static function monthDifference(start:Date, end:Date):int;
Since partial months can be confusing, this is how month differences are supposed to work:
The month difference between January 1, 2010 and January 31, 2010 is zero (0).
The month difference between January 31, 2010 and February 1, 2010 is one (1).
The month difference between January 1, 2010 and February 28, 2010 is one (1).
The month difference between January 1, 2010 and March 1, 2010 is two (2).
How can I calculate month difference in ActionScript 3.0?

I'm using greensock to create the tweens, but I need to be able to have the months continue their animation if I ROLL_OUT of 2008 Additionally, I need to set the timeline.reverse(); on all the months, but that doesn't seem to be working, and I think it's because I have it set to pause. is anyone familiar with tweening libraries? Can this be fixed? I tried doing timeline.duration but that just sends the animation to the end and I want it to animate to the end-not just go there.

I have a calendar-class and I want to see if there is a post in my database for any of the dates. I was thinking a nested loop, the first one loops through the dates of the month and the nested one compares variables with the date.
Ex.
loadVariablesNum("[URL]", 0)
for (q = 1; q <= Days; q++){
//load 'day-symbol'
for(x = 1; x == 10; x++){
if(q == someArray[x]){
//someArray[] from loadVariablesNum
//mark day...
}}

How long would it take for a raw beginner to learn Action Script 3 coding so as to have a basic understanding and an ability to code Flash.Also to be able to take existing code and adapt it to suit ones own flash project ?Are there any training videos on such or good books to read ?What is the best way of learning AS3 ?Is it in fact best to forget AS3 and get tuition in programming or some other discipline then take a look at AS3 and what timescale would be suitable to achieve this so as to meet the goal stated above

I've published Mac projector files and .exe file from Flash CS4 for several months without issue. For the past week when I've published Mac projector files the .app icon appears on my desktop but when I try to play the file the dock opens but the file doesn't play. Any Mac projector files I published prior to this problem play fine.I've tried creating a new .fla file and have reinstalled Flash but I'm still having the problem. EXE files and SWF files play fine. Also, the Mac projector files publish at about half the file size they did before this problem, while the EXE and SWF files are the same size.

How do you turn off the sound in a game only? I ask because I have two buttons in my settings: turn music on/off and sound on/off. turning music on and off is really easy because it uses a specific sound channel. But How do you turn off the volume the sound only (e.g. music is still playing but not the sound of the game)?
When I mute the sound via SoundMixer.soundtransform you can't hear anything so that's not what I wanted to have. In my game all sounds are thrown into an array. My first idea was that I go through all sounds listed in the array and turn off the volume but that's not working.
Code:
//not working
private var sounds:Array;
private var soundChannels:Array = [];

I have 9 fla files. Is there anything I can do to create 1 swf out of 9 separate fla files??? I tried to cut and past the info all onto 1 timeline. Is there more than one way to do this?? I end up with multiple files with the same name in the library and it becomes a bit of a nightmare just trying to use the cut and past method.

I know virtually nothing about Flash so I'm kind of casting about in the dark.
I have the misfortune of being a BT customer, and whilst I have reasonable bandwidth (can view streaming high res video fine) I always have problems listening to radio programmes from the BBC. I think it could be buffering due to traffic shaping, or it could be the Flash applet used to play the content, or something else.
Is it possible to bring up some kind of debugging console, or view some kind of error log to see if there is some diagnostic information that could be useful in finding the problem?

I know how to turn music on/off but I now want to find out how to do the following. On 50cent.com, you can select from a variety of songs, then play the one you wish. I want to know how to do that, with the buttons changing the songs, then being able to press play, and stop. Could someone tell me how to do this, or redirect me to a tutorial that will teach me. I have flash mx, so you could post a flash mx tutorial if you wish. Another example is shown on West49.com, but I dont need to know how to open the playlist option they have. Just a simple left and right button changing the songs, thena a play and a stop button.

How do I turn a value into something i can use without the "-" negative value if there is one.
I have an "imageLoaderHost" movieclip and I need it's x position to be usable wherever its at. for instance:
if imageLoaderHost is at -1258(x position), I need "b1" to go to 1258 (without the "-" as you can see).

I was just wondering if there's a way to write code for a button so it will, e.g., make a movie clip visible with one click, then hide it with a second click?what I usually do is give the mc two frames, so on click one it goes to frame 2 while it changes the visibility or alpha, and on frame 2 sends it back to frame 1 while changing the mc back. But I would like the flexibility of doing it on the fly with code rather than have to fiddle with each mc.I tried doing it yesterday with an if/else if statement, like, "if alpha is 0, change it to 100, else if alpha is 100, change it to 0" but couldn't get it to work. But if that's the way to go I'll keep playing with it.

I just upgraded to CS4. I'm working with sprites and using the properties of the images I've turned off smoothing to get that retro gaming feel. However, when viewing the sprites on the stage, everything is smoothed over which makes things difficult for me to animate. When I render everything, it looks perfect, just the way I want it with smoothing off, but how do I turn off the smoothing on the stage?
