I have a pretty simple question, how do I reference an individual word in an XML node. For example PHP Code: <tag>word1 , word2 , word 3, word 4, word5</tag> where I want to refer to all these tags individually instead of as a whole string.
View 3 RepliesI want to extract each individual node from and XML file. I want to preserve the node data AND the attribute name and the attribute data. In short create a new XML that is a copy of the complete node.
I am sure this is pretty simple but whilst I keep getting close I seem unable to get it to work!
Here is an example to illustrate:
If my XML file is like this (just an example)
Code:
<X>
<O A='1' Z='22' Q='13'>DataX</O>
<O A='54' B='25' C='16'>DataY</O>

im having problems with a nested loop. i found some post here, but they didn�t help me. i need to extract the individual values from a nested xml node. i simplyfied the xml.

I have a text properly read in from xml and displaying ok. But I'm trying to implement a link on one word in the text and that doesn't work. the xml node is [code] and should display;visit the website clicktext but displays;url... The code generating the html text field seems to work ok (it creates "arial font"), that specifc part goes;[code]
View 8 Replieshave this code that's supposed to return the an array that holds the values that were contained within an XML node.

for some reason, the code won't return anything. the output just says "undefined". Would a good workaround consist of putting the return function within a setInterval method?
translation API for Flash that can return multiple translations/definitions for a single word.
e.g.
fantasy = fantaisie, fantasme, imagination, cration
etc.
I've managed to find a few that do one word conversion. Including APIs that use Google Translate as a backend. But can't seem to get them to work so that they return alternative translations if available. The web-based PHP/JS/etc. APIs seem to offer this, but haven't found it in Actionscript yet.
I've got a text field pulling XML and its CSS. The XML has a few long lines of text it uses as links. The links are long enough to word-wrap in the text field. Now, if you were to select the text, it would only select the words. However, the blank area to the right of the wrapping link is still an active hotspot for the link somehow. I wouldn't consider this a problem if clicking the blank area didn't return the text field to the top (it is scrolling text). It gets very distracting and hard to track where you are in the text.
View 3 RepliesI've gotten as far as getting a listbox with a list of articles to display the articles in a dynamic text box, only i can only get it to work if i use one huge external text file that contains all the articles. what i want is to have each item on the list open up its own external text file, i.e. for each item on the list, there exists a separate text file. I'm about ready to put my fist through the monitor, and that would suck because this is a really nice monitor
View 13 RepliesI have been building a simple word game. It is smple but works fine. I am now trying to enhance some of the features.I would like to see if I can display one letter of each word so the Player has a hint. Think of this as a beginners level.The words are random from a text list. Either I can make the letters invisible and the game starts without a hint or I am able to select a letter using charAt() or creating a new variable substring()from the word which is the displayed repeatedly on the stage(not what I want) I have not been able to find a way to display one letter and display it in the correct order within the word and keep the remaining letters invisible.

I am doing drag-the-word quiz. When you match the word with correct part, the message pop out, saying Bingo! If the word is matched with wrong part, the "Sorry. Try Again" message pops out, says "Sorry. Try Again". I managed to make the "Sorry. Try Again" message disappear. However it dun work anymore after that. Sometimes it is quite funny. When I play it, the "Sorry. Try Again" message dun pop out at all.
Another problem - I am not sure how to make the word fit into the white box. I only know how to make the word drop on the white box. Can you tell me how to do it? I will be adding voiceovers to the quiz when the word is matched with the part. For e.g it will say "bingo" or "Sorry. Try Again". How to attach the voiceovers to it?
create the word which changing many time and in the end become a clear word like what's happend exactly in horizintal menu in [URL] That's what i wanted the changing in words like that menu?

var loadit:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loadit.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);

how could I randomly choose a word from the list and have it as a variable
I have an AdvancedDataGrid tree with a ArrayCollection as its dataprovider. Now, for instance, i drag a leaf from one node to another node. To catch the event I'm adding a Listener to dragComplete.

My Problem: I want to know the new node where the leaf was dropped. Actually i would have expected that in the event there is a property like dropParent. This is not the case.
I have a tree im my mxml that uses a XMLListCollection as dataProvider. It´s XML is like:
<list>
<conta nome="Plano de Contas" id="1">
<conta nome="Creditos" id="2" />
<conta nome="Vendas" id="4" />

How can I make the node for, say, id==4 visible AND selected?
i have a question whether we can create a new xml node in as3 node containing dynamic value inside.....
as like if i want to get like..var newNode:XML = <IMAGE FULL="fullimages/3.jpg"THUMB="thumbnails/3.jpg"/>
where the images are dynamic values...
I thought this was going to be easy! I would like to search an XML file for a particular data set i.e. set of nodes depending on a passed variable. However, storing a subset of my XML file via Code:var gallery = this.firstChild; and then searching 'gallery' as you would an array-using a for()-doesn't work since this.firstChild isn't returning an array
Code:
<gallery>

system to browse offline howeverthis doesn't work correctly for any less then ActionScript 3. Whenyou highlighted a word in the past such as "null" it use to pull upthe word and the info in all the books. Now all I see is a webbrowser that doesn't do this for me. I mean who sits there atadobe's end and thinks up of ways to slow someone down like this??How can you remove the corequick linking from the program.Number 1 not everyone is on AS3 and some of us still have to updateAS2 code.

I'm having some troubles with the use of interface and inheritance in AS3. I've done lots of OOP in the past and what I'm trying to do seems obvious to me, but doesn't work in AS3. The question is : Is it possible to override a function that return an Object of class A, and make it return an Object of Class B which extends A ? It seems not to be possible, since I'm getting a signature error in Flash, when compiling. For example, the following set of class do not compile (the code in function definition doesn't matter):

make an interactive flash simulation of a display that has several different settings. these need to work individually so that the user can set the different indicators to the number they want. the picture shows the two main functions; a number indicator and a status bar (kind of like the reception bar on a phone).i have tried to get .swf files to load on top of each other, but they keep erasing previous settings in other indicators. is there a way to get this to work? or maybe a completely different approach that would be smoother? or can someone point me in the direction of a tutorial or a template that has this function?

View 2 RepliesWith get- and setTextformat I can set the individual color of a section in a TextField. There is a problem with getting and setting a textformat from and to a TLF (set- does give an error message when putting the TextFormat back to the TLF).Now if I have two strings and want them to have different color and size in one TLF what would be a good way to do that. I don't want to programm all TextFormat propertys for every different Text in my application.
View 10 RepliesIf I have a button named:
<mx:Button id="backButton">
and another named:<mx:Button id="cancelButton"
How can I style each button seperatly?
Can I give each button a style, then set the style in CSS... E.g.
Button #style { backgroundColor: red;}
I have figured out a way to change the style of tabs at run time with following logic:
var cssStyle:CSSStyleDeclaration = StyleManager.getStyleDeclaration(".MyTabs");
cssStyle.setStyle("borderColor", "red");
But here ".MyTabs" class is applicable to all the tabs between first and last tab. As per getStyleDeclaration javadoc, it only accepts "class selector" and "type selector" not the id selector.
How can I change the individual tab style at run time?
I need a way of recognizing what weapon is currently being held.The way the weapons works is it is a movie clip, with multiple frames, each with a different weapon, and each weapon has a different minimum/maximum damage they can do. How can i make a code that recognizes which frame the weapon movie clip is on?
View 6 RepliesI have two buttons without names and I'm trying to have the same exact code on each so that you can click the button and it will turn white (or look like it), and click it again and it will turn back to blue (alpha at 100).This is the code I'm using on each button:
Code:
on (release){
if (_alpha == 100){
_alpha = 1;
[code]...
Unfortunately it causes both buttons to change their alpha to 0, not just the one that the code is on.Could anyone tell me why this is and how to make it so that only the button clicked is the one that has the alpha change? The reason I'm doing it this way is that I am going to end up using over 600 buttons like this, and I would much rather be able to copy and paste them in rows instead of naming them (I've already spent upwards of 45 minutes naming them A1, A2, B1, B2 and changing the code to fit).
I been trying to find this but no luck so far. Is it possible to get different soundmixer values for two different sounds that are playing at the same time?
At the moment it seems to me that the soundmixer takes the combined sound output for analysis, which si not what I need.
Is there a way to find out how much memory a single object is used?
