ActionScript 3.0 :: Pulling Data From Class Array Onto A MovieClip?
Aug 6, 2009
I am trying to create this slide show application that will show product information (Tennis Rackets) based on diffrent categories. A great programmer advised me that OOP would be a way to go, however i am having a difficulty with it.
I created: A document class called CustomClass --> this class downloads all XML data from the server and pushing the content of it into Arrays based on a category.These arrays are public, there is also a funciton iterateArray which places the children information somewhere.

I'm wondering if anyone has figured out how to pull data from a column in a SharePoint 2007 list to be able to dyamically generate a reaction in a flash object.Our designer created a dashboard of thermometers for our projects that use two variables, % complete and status (green, yellow, red, blue).
As the end user, I want to be able to update my project in my SharePoint list and have it so that my updates automatically populate that flash based dashboard.Right now, he's using an XML document that is stored in a folder on our SharePoint site and then simply updating the XML file when there are changes.It would be ideal to pull this data from the list rather than having to update and then upload the xml document to the SharePoint site.

I created a file that pulls data from the worldofwarcraft.com serverstatus xml page.The data populates a dropdown list and you can choose the server and it tells you if its up or down. The mini app works great on my desktop, when I upload it to my server it no longer retrieves the data.
Is Bliz blocking my server address from recieving the data? Anyone know how to navigate around this. [URL]..If you want to test it grab the swf out of your cache and load it from your desktop, it will work.

I have been failing to do a thing with Flash actionscript2.0; Here is the problem-
My xml file name is: sea.xml On my fla file, there is a button named: do; and a movieClip named: loader;
What I am trying to do is- load xml only when the button is pressed. So I tried this-
myXML:XML = new XML;
do.onRelease = function(){
myXML.load("sea.xml");
}

I was running a test today and couldn't get flash to properly load data from php.Here's my textInput.php file:
Code:
<?php
$testVar = 'This is a sentence.';[code]....
why it's grabbing the entire php code, rather than just the echo?

I am trying to pull a text from within xml tags and place them in a text box when certain mc's are clicked. I am using the e.target to find the name of the mc clicked and grab info from tags with the same name as the target mc. The XML link is good as i can get data when doing tests with out using mentioned technique.
ActionScript Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.net.URLLoader;
import flash.events.Event;
[Code] .....
And the xml file
Code:
<statsIcons>
<pollutionIcon_mc> some text </pollutionIcon_mc>

I am building a userinterface for some industrial instruments which output some data to a XML spreadsheet. This is the only way I can retreave these data's from the instruments.

Basically, I am having trouble pulling in more than one line of XML data. Here is the line of code I am trying to manipulate to give me more than one line. I have tried duplicating it and changing the values... but it just updates which line it is displaying instead of the first and second one...
_root.setlist = this.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
Inside of my XML document it is layed out like this....
<shows>
<show>
<setlist>
<song>Song 1</song>
</song>Song 2</song>

Here is my xml structure:
<question>
<q1> Who coined the term "Clinical Psychology"? </q1>
<answer> Lightner Witmer </answer>
<option1> Stanley Hall </option1>
<option2> Lightner Witmer </option2>
<option3> Henry P. David </option3>
</question>
I can loop through fine and pick out the questions and answers, then throw them into separate arrays. The problem I'm having is looping and pulling the options into a multidimensional array like such:
var one:Array = new Array( 3 );
one[0] = ["Stanley Hall", "Lightner Witmer", "Henry P. David"];
one[1] = ["Stanley Hall", "Lightner Witmer", "Henry P. David"];
one[2] = ["Stanley Hall", "Lightner Witmer", "Henry P. David"];

I am trying to make a basic game, and have read all about bitmaps, but they have only confused me, so I am trying to succeed with a more flawed, but basic approach. I couldn't find any comprehensible tutorials on this, so I've tried it on my own, but it doesn't work.Basically I have my character in a movie clip connected to a class, and it is spawned when the movie starts, just like the "wall" class here. It populates the stage with a line of boxes, but my problem is that the hittesting only works on the first one.[code]

I'm trying to create a game and have come across something that I have never really played with and am not sure if it is what I need to use in this instance or if it's as powerful of a resource as I am hoping.I have a movieClip that is an animated man. I can move him around my stage by clicking on him and then clicking where I want him to go. But I'm eventually going to need to store information about him. Such as his x and y position on the stage, attributes about him that are custom to my game.Real Quick: The man represents an army and when the user clicks on him, I want to display things like, Military Units in this army, number of men remaining in each unit, experience and so on. If you have ever played any of the "Total War" games you will know what I'm talking about.

I tried to take similar code from this same forum, but I was either getting an error 1118 or an 1009 (null object reference).
Basically I have a series of movie clip instances on the stage with instance names of:
number_1
number_2
number_3
[Code]....
I tried but I kept getting an error...I think I am a little confused as to how to make it work properly.

Newbie to XML here and I have what I *hope* is an easy problem, but I just don't know the answer. And as I have to try and show this by Monday, I'm sort of stuck. I am trying to pull in information about houses via an xml file. Each house has 1 address, 1 owner, 1 description, and about 6 photos. I have no problem accessing the address, owner, etc, and I can always access the first photo, but whenever I cycle through the photos, I seem to cycle through the first photo for every house, not every photo for each house.
Basically, I need the children <images> to go up by one, without the the parent going up by 1. I am hoping I am describing this well. My code looks like this:

I have an xml file (externally saved) that is similar to the following:
[root]
[main]
[title]...[/title]
[Code]....
What I like to do is to get what's in [title] tag using HTTPservice, import it into Flex, and save it as array objects, and do the same thing for [content]. This way I can later refer the array object saying title[0] or content[2].

I have bought Learning AS 3.0 (O'Reilly) but I have been having difficulty getting one of the tutorials to run. The tutorial shows how to record data from a microphone to a byte array, playback the saved data and save as a WAV file. For some reason, I can't get this working. When the swf runs, the Flash Settings screen doesn't pop up to request permission to access the microphone but I can still trace properties such as gain.
I've uploaded a zip containing all the classes and an FLA - just use RecordMicrophone_Example.as file as the document class. Here is the problematic area of the code:

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.

I want to create a movieclip class that subclasses another movieclip class and inherits all its properties (rather than having to rely on the include statement). In my project I'm using:An abstract parent class that extends a movieClip: "infantryDroid".[code]However everytime I try this, flash acts as though nothing was imported from the parent movieclip class.If I was to try the above code I would get the message that _root and speed (which were defined in the parent class) "are undefined".
