ActionScript 3.0 :: Text Search That's Not Case Sensitive?
Jul 30, 2009
I'm making a glossary. The glossary terms and definitions are in an xml file. I have read the terms (the words to be defined) into an array. I have included a search field, such that when I enter a term in the search field, a function loops through the array of terms and if the string I entered in the search field matches an item in the array, Flash traces out "match" (in this early part of coding).Here is my problem: If one of the terms in the glossary is "India Pale Ale", with capital letters, then a search on "india pale ale" turns up no matches.How do I remove case sensitivity in this scenario?

I have been working on a large sized movie lately and found that I was getting some unknown errors. So naturally I placed trace statements, still I had no idea what was going on. Then low- and -behold I noticed that I had two varaibles one name xPos the other Xpos. Now of course noramally I would assume like other programming languages such as java and C++ variables are case sensitive. I found that If I assigned xPos a value and wrote a trace statement (with different case) ie

I have a login section that has a username and password input field. I am not sure if I am doing this right, but since there is only one username and one password, this is how I did this.
[Code]...
My question now is how can I have the username not be case sensitive. Is that possible?

Is it just me, or do flex MX datagrids sort in a case sensitive manner be default? That is, they'll sort like this:
I know I can give a datagrid column a custom sort function, but do I really have to do that for every column in the app?
So this is a bug in a legacy app- updating every single grid to spark really isn't an option (if that's even a fix). Am I missing some obvious way to change the sorting pattern for an entire grid?

I have several datagrids with changing columns. For the text fields the datagrid's sort function neems to be making a case sensitive compare. eg. the following list sorted would look like this apples strawberries Autos Autos should be with apples but since the capital A is counted differently all capital letters come after. I've found a lot of information on setting a CASEINSENSITIVE flag, but I can't figure out where to do this. The best solution would be one where I can override the default behavior to be case insensitive for all my datagrids and all my compare functions.

i"ve got a SEARCH facility in my website. It is case sensitive. How do alter the script below to search ignoring case sensitiveness?
Eg. if someoene types "Pigs" or "PIGS" or "PIGs" it should bring the same result.
sruch_btn.onRelease = function () {
if (cosearchbx.text == "Pigs"){clearTimeout(srch1TO);srch1TO=setTimeout(srch1F,5000);srch1._visible = true;}function srch275F(){srch275._visible=false;}
}

I need to replace some text - it's actually a bunch of textInput area data captured and placed together {inputArea1.text}{inputArea2.text} style - and have it placed in an mx:Text text="{inputArea1.text}{inputArea2.text}".So I have the smart idea to pull a switch case, where the case condition is the id of the canvas and it's pulling from the textInput areas.My output from the aforementioned string into my text just yields: Code:function Function() {}I complete this, I can sleep.

I've got a few text boxes address1, address2 etc which I've restricted using
address1.restrict = "A-Z 0-9";
All seems well if you input your address manually, but also there is an automatic feature on the web catalogue I'm working on, where you can enter your postcode and the relavent addresses will be generated in a scrollable list box. You can select an entry from this list box and click OK to confirm this is your address, which will then conveniently fill in all your address1, address2 etc input text fields.
But, when the addresses are generated in the list box they are not displayed in caps for example 92 Green Lane, Moston, Manchester. Like this... and so when you confirm your address each text box is filled in the same case, NOT in Uppercase like I've specified. Anyway to correct this once it passes the address variables into the text fields?

Is there a way to convert the display of the TextInput to upper case? Like this:
type h ===> displays H
type e ===> displays HE
type l ===> displays HEL
type l ===> displays HELL
type o ===> displays HELLO
I tried using the following, it traces but it doesn't display
Code:
keyListener = new Object();
keyListener.onKeyUp = function() {
// var myText = mainTXT.text;
myText.toUpperCase();
trace(myText.toUpperCase());
}

I am trying to make a vertical mouse-sensitive scroll that I created a while back work going horizontally. You can see the one I created at [URL] and click on the "CUSTOM" link. I have been fiddling with the x and y coordinates but can seem to make it work. If I sent someone the FLA file, could you possibly help me make it work scrolling HORIZONTALLY?

Just looking for some advice/leads on "best practices" for protecting a sensitive id (personally identifiable information) I've got a Java-based webapp (JSPs, Servlets, etc) that is going to need to embed a SWF file running on a trusted 3rd party site.
As part of embedding the SWF file, I'm going to need to pass a parameter in the block containing the currently logged in customer's ID. Question: knowing that I have a Java stack and not really knowing (or caring) what technology stack the SWF hoster has, what's the best way of encrypting that customerID such that someone who views source and starts trying to change the customer ID parameter can't suddenly get a SWF that's not related to them?

I've been trying to have all of the movieclips on stage grow bigger when the mouse rolls over them, then shrink back to normal size on roll out. I have that working, but it seems that my mouse detection is sometimes too sensitive.I say that because sometimes my movieclip will alternate rapidly between rollout and rollover, usually when I place my cursor near the edge of a movie clip.I've tried only adding the rollout event after the tween finishes, but by then the user could have moved their mouse off the movieclip, and no rollout event fires. I was wondering if anyone knows of another way to manage a rollover grow effect without the stutter.[code]

I have a HP tx2500 tablet pc. I put the beta of windows 7 on it several months ago and had no trouble (64 bit). The service period expired, so I wiped it and put the windows 7 RC on it (also 64 bit). This has caused me problems with photoshop and flash (both cs3) as they will not recognize touch sensitive input! (aka when i press hard the line gets darker). In photoshop the option is set but nothing happens, in flash the button for touch sensitive input has simply disappeared, there is just grey where it used to be. I updated windows all the way and updated my flash and photoshop as well.

i have a site entirely built on flash. its basically an e-magazine with lots of textual data. i need to implement a full text search where the user enters search terms in a text field and i need to highlight the occurrence of this search term within the textual contents inside this e-magazine
in a way its similar to what you do within a browser search or pdf search where after typing your search term they highlight all occurrences of this search term within the webpage / pdf document
what is the best way to do this? any ready component / solution / code available?
