ActionScript 3.0 :: Using Variable In Place Of Element In Array To Addeventlisteners?
Jan 24, 2009
This is probably something very simple that I just can't seem to get to work. Basically I'm trying to use a variable to be called inside of an array instead of the actual array so a simple example would be
Code:
var people:Array = [john,tom,ann];
var selected = john;
trace(people[selected]);
I get an error everytime I try to use a variable in place of and actual element
[Code]...

I have a particular element from an array that I'm trying to get recognized by a variable. I am getting a #1010 error on this line:
[CODE]...
My guess is that the url variable is reading this as null and thus I get a #2007 error whenever I click the button in question.

I'm working on a page that has some ads on it. One of them loads in an ad with wmode=window.I don't have the ability to change that flash code. I need to put a modal box on top of that flash element, but every combination of using z-indexes and iframe shims has failed (both manually and using bgiframe). Is there a way to place html content on top of a flash element with wmode=window? I'm testing this in chrome so far.

Is it possible to, if you have an array of class names like ActionScript Code: var city01names:Array = ["pic_01", "pic_02", "pic_03" ...] make a new array which would read these names, instantiate them, and push them into a new array containing the instances of all these pictures, which I could then use for a slideshow?

I have an array called dropTarg1 which stores dropped-in items.I want to loop through this array and in a textfield, display each array item on a new line of this text fieldI think I need to use something like Array.join("/n") but I can't get it working properly. I hope that the /n would create a new line of the text field called reviewBoxContentText.
for(var i:Number = 0; i<dropTarg.length; i++){
with(reviewBoxContent.reviewBoxContentText){
autoSize = true;

This is sort of difficult to explain but I'll do my best. I've got 6 score variables that go up over time.
[Code]...
Each corresponds to a different color of "Monster" class I reated. "GreenMonster", "BlueMonster", etc. are all custom classes. Each class has a string property called "MonsterColor". So "Blue1.MonsterColor = "Blue".
To save lines of code, and learn, I'm trying to use a local string variable to take the place of whichever of these 6 int variables I need. So inside a for loop, I've created a variable called "colorscore".

I have 4 buttons and an empty array. When a button is clicked,I'm adding a element to an array with array.push. However, I want to check the array 1st to see if that element exists. If so, then don't add it. Here's what I have thus far
[Code]...
Now I'm taking it I'd have a conditional statement to see if the element already exists. Unfortunatly I cannot just disable the button. I searched the AS dictionary but oddly enough it doesn't have an easy way to search an array. And IndexOf seems to only work for a string.

I have this array:

I want another array which takes the values of the price from the 1st Array. Can we do something like this? private var another_price_array:Array = [all_array.price]; This second array will be used to populate a ComboBox, or can I populate the combo directly from the first array itself?

How do you set a variable attribute of a xml element?This is what I expected to work:xmlElement.attribute(variableAttr) = "the variable attribute is set to this string";
However, I'm getting some error that this value can only be retrieved as a reference and not set.Ofcourse, the following does not work either as it will look for the attribute named "variableAttr" and not for the attribute named after the value of the variable variableAttr:
xmlElement.@variableAttr = "example";

I know how to get one element from the array. But I don't know let's say how to take 3 elements ( position 0,1,2). I don't know how to trace all the three together. I am getting errors all the time.
var myArray:Array = [1,2,3,4,5];
trace(myArray[0]);
trace(myArray[0], ?,?);

I'm trying to make a memory like game. It might be called Simon or Simple Simon or something. Basically something is shown for a second and then gone, then the user clicks that something. Then two or three things are shown in order and then gone and the user clicks the order.
I'm stuck at the very beginning, just showing something from an array for half a second or so then stopping and then starting over and adding one more element.

This is for a small RTS prototype I'm working on for some fun, but I've hit a snag.
For examples sake, I've got two arrays, activeAgents and houseArray. A number of movieclips (player controled units/agents) are stored in activeAgents and houseArray is used to store any agent that is "inside" the house.
If an agent in activeAgents hitTests the house that houseArray belongs to and the agent ISN'T already in the houseArray, then I want to add the agent from activeAgents INTO the houseArray.[code]...

Code:
arrayA[i] = arrayB[j];
This results in:
1:[object #7, class 'Array'],
I'm would like to set arrayA[i] to the value of arrayB[j], not set arrayA[i] to the object arrayB[j].
I can't use .toString() as I'm trying to pass on an array inside an array.

I'm getting some warning signs in FDT in a couple of lines of code that access values in the app descriptor, like this:
var appDescriptor:XML = NativeApplication.nativeApplication.applicationDescriptor;
var ns:Namespace = appDescriptor.namespace();
var appId:String = appDescriptor.ns::id[0];
var appVersion:String = appDescriptor.ns::versionNumber[0];
Those lines work fine, but FDT underlines "id" and "versionNumber", and issues the warning "Could not resolve variable (may be an XML element name)".

I am trying to retrieve the element I added to my UI in a different function. I am using actionscript 3. I know I can put the variable into a class variable, so it can be access anywhere in the class, but I have too many elements. Is there anyway I could access them without putting them into class variable?
Code:
public class Test extends SkinnableContainer{
// private var image:Image; <-- I try not to do this, too messy

I have an array used to track shots fired from a cannon, and when they hit the ground they are removed.
I would like to know what is the most efficient way of finding and removing a certain element from an array. I heard that using pop() instead of splice() was faster, is it ?
Also, the big question I have is that the only way I see of actually finding the element in the array is using
Code:
for(i=0;i<array.length;i++){
if(array[i] == movieClipToRemove){
//i == movieClip index in the array
}
}
Then I would use either splice() or pop() to remove it from the array before deleting the MC. Is there a better way than scanning through the whole array comparing each element to the triggering MC ?

I've got an array containing various sprites... I'm wanting to reference the sprite I want by its name rather than its index in the array, and was wondering if theres a simple way of doing this? I know I could do a for loop through all the array elements and see which one has a name that is equal to the name im looking for, but is something along the lines of myArray[elementName] possible?

I have an array, created as:
ActionScript Code:
myArray:Array = new Array(10)
pretty much just saying there is 10 elements in it. I define each function as "land", for example. Then in the same function I redefine a random element as "water".
(It is a bit more complex, this is simplified!)
Upon executing this I get the error:
ActionScript Code:
TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.
if I put the second bit in a new function (the random water part), there is no problems and it executes perfectly. Obviously I cant define an element twice in the same function.
