I want to keep track of and display the level (waveCount) and display it in a dynamic text box. However, AS isn't allowing me to convert the number into a string.
PHP Code:
private var waveCount:Number = new Number();
private var waveOutput:String = new String (waveCount);
private var waveWord:Sprite = new WaveWord();

[code]I have information coming in from an XML page. One of the childnodes is an ID. The numbers of the IDs go from 29 to 40. I'm trying to have 6 numbers randomly grabbed from the list, so I made a function to find a random number between a given "Low" and "High" numbers, then another to continuously add 1 if it's already one of the other numbers(I'm pretty sure the method of that part, I could have taken a short cut.)Where it says to trace the two numbers near the top of the find5RandomNumbers function, they trace 29 and 40. But near the bottom where it's told to trace all 6 items, they come back as "NaN."[code]
View 0 Replieshow to create price strings from numbers.E.g. a product could have a price of 25.50. however this will show as 25.5, as it removes the 0.I would like to convert this number (25.5) to a string, and format it as a price, e.g. "25.50"In C#, its easy, you just do .toString("0.00");but i can't find any way of doing it in Actionscript. Is there an easy way or do i have to do some string splitting and such?

but I forgot something. Let's say I'm trying to display the date. For the minutes thing, I have:minutes = my_date.getMinutes()First, I think I need to convert that second thing into a string.Second, do I need to introduce my date variable earlier? That's kind of weird.
View 5 RepliesIm using a tween engine, and its syntax for use is as follows::
[Code].....
How can I write "_x",100,1,"easeout",0,callback as a string?? I have tried to put "these" around the text. The problem seems to be that "_x" and "easeout" which are effectively strings inside the string! -- but for the tween engine to work - I need to declare that.
I have two input boxes that I can type numbers into.I'd like a third input box to display the total of the first two.I've set up a key pressed listener on the stage to run a function that adds them together when a key is pressed.Problem is, it just places the strings together - it ddoesn't add them.So how do I tell Flash that box1.text and box2.text are numbers?box3.text = box1.text + box2.text ain't doing it.
View 5 RepliesWe're making a simple input text comparisons vs. some constant floating point numbers (e.g. 4.35). Using Actionscript 2 to Flash 9 export.
Code:
trace(typeof(Number(435/100)))
trace(typeof(Number(435/100)==4.35))
trace((Number(435/100)==4.35))
[code]...
In the order listed above, I get the following trace when I export via Flash CS3 (9.0) on my PPC mac:
number
boolean
true
true
[code]....
The same exact FLA file, unmodified, gives the following trace output on 2 different intel macs (one mac pro, one imac) using Flash CS3 (9.0).
number
boolean
false
false
[code]....
have a clue why this is giving falses for statements such as "(Number(435/100)==4.35))", "(435/100==4.35)" or "(Number(input_txt.text)==4.35000)" but ISN'T giving a false for (Number(input_txt.text)==(435/100)) (NOTE: input_txt.text is an input field which contains the string 4.35) I'm expecting the latter since they're generally intel chipsets too??
Note: once i compile the code on my PPC mac, intel macs that run the SWF (but don't recompile the FLA) do return the correct booleans that match the PPC output.
I would like flash to send and receive data from mysql.
To send data I would like to create 5 input fields, and then use a submit button.
Then to retrieve the data I would like to use the data grid or a dynamic text field.
I'm currently trying to get flash to display a variable from php. It always comes up as 'null' and I'm at a complete loss.
Here's my Code
Code:
package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
[code]....
On the server and local I always get 'username is null' displayed. I'm at a complete loss at what to try next.
im going through ASDG, page by page, and learning everything from scratch. he's explaining datatypes, i.e. strings, numbers, booleans, arrays, etc...i get that. then he goes into explaining how to convert datatypes from numbers to strings using "toString" , and then strings to numbers using "Number()"...and then later, strings to booleans and stuff. My question is this. where someone would want to turn a number into a string or a string into a number? and how would someone even turn a string into a number? i dont understand how that works.

From PHP
Code:

require( "../weeklybread.php" );
$query = mysql_query( "SELECT * FROM $table" );
while($myrow = mysql_fetch_array( $query )) {
$message = ($myrow['message']);

So I can't see anything inside the text field, I can't even trace it.. it says undefined in 20px caps.
I am attempting to connect to a python twisted socket server with Flash using XMLSocket. The connect works fine, and so does the receive. However I can't send data to the server. Is there a specific format I should be using? The reason I ask is because I couldn't read any data with the XMLSocket until the data was in the form "something", that is, the data string had to be valid xml followed by the null character. Is there a trick to sending data?
I don't think this a cross site security problem, because if it was, I believe I wouldn't be able to connect or receive. I am able to connect to the server using telnet and a java client without issues. EDIT: I figured it out, the problem was my server needed to have the data sent to it end with"
I have made a game that sends and recevies data from an online leaderboard. It uses PHP and mySQL, and all works fine when running the .swf off my computer. The problem is, when the game is uploaded and running online, it fails to both receive and send the data to the leaderboard. I don't know why! When I first ran the game offline, a security box appeared that told me I had to allow it to access the server. So, I'm thinking it might be a security problem. Is there a similar security setting that I have to enable on the server somewhere? Or some code I can put to the game to override it? Note that everything is on the same server at the moment so I dont need any of that CrossDomain stuff, I think.

I am having newbie problems with sockets. Flash sends data to my php server script fine, and my telnet client(s) all get updated. When I make an entry into a telnet client, all of the other clients update immediately as expected. In Flash however, the only time I receive data is when I press a key within flash.
Example: Press 'a' within Flash, flash traces a, telnet outputs a Press b in telnet, telnet outputs b, nothing within flash Press c in Flash, flash traces b, c, telnet traces c

I guess this is more of an issue of how to set up Flash to listen for events on the socket
