ActionScript 3.0 :: XML Length & For-each?
Sep 24, 2009
I have 10 dynamic text fields inside a movieclip, which are populated via an XML file.However, the xml file sometimes has less than 10 items. It never has more than 10. This results in the following error, which is normal. I need the code to count the amount of items in the XML file and then create a for-each loop. I can visualize it, but I don't know how to write it.Basically what I need the code below transformed in to is this... (notice the #'s)
ActionScript Code:
(count xml items)
fr each item {

Let's say I have array foo and a positive integer y, where foo.length > y.I want to remove elements from foo so that foo.length becomes y (or very close to it).Also, I need to preserve the first and last element of foo. The indices of the removed elements must be spaced apart as equally as possible. Foo can be sliced, or it can be used to create a new array.
Example: if foo = [a,b,c,d,e,f,g,1,2,3,4,5] and y = 6, then trimmedfoo could be [a,c,e,g,2,4,5] or maybe [a,c,e,2,4,5], but not [a,c,e,g,2,4] because the last element of foo is missing.

Is there any way to determine if a (anonymous) function has defined the ...(rest) parameter in ActionScript 3? I know there's the function.length property, but it only counts the explicitly defined arguments.

I am trying to use the class Sound of actionscript.My code is really basic :
var snd:Sound = new Sound();
snd.load(new URLRequest("mysound.mp3"));
trace( new String(snd.length));
snd.play();
The audio is playing very well but in my trace, I get 0 instead of the length in milliseconds of the Sound.

I have an 11 minute video (.MOV) that I want to convert to an FLV. The file is about 29GB. I first tried to convert it using the CS3 Video Encoder but only the first 5:00 were converted. I tried this a few times with different settings but got the same results. Then I switched to Cleaner but again, only about 5:00 was converted. The length is not exactly the same but close enough for me to think that there might be a 5:00 limit to how long an FLV can be. Or is there a limit to the size of MOV the encoding process will handle?

Each line in the dynamic textbox has 15 characters, and yet you can notice the difference in the length(between each line).
I want to make the length of each line look same if they have same number of charaters.

I am trying to find out what the max length is for a string because since as3 doesnt provide any methods for removing characters from a string by changing the initial string itself, i am going to have to stick to re-initializing.I did a little test to see how long it would take for my program to break using the following code:
Actionscript Code:
+[code]..............
The program crashed at a string length of about 500 million.
EDIT:however before it crashed,it performed the incrementations with reasonable performance.
EDIT EDIT: which is strange since my ram still had over 2 gig the program didnt use

I am using as2 to stream some mp3s. At the moment I have an attribute within the xml for giving me the length.I guess the length for the mp3s is buried in the mmp3 file somewhere. If I load the files in totally first, then I can get at the info (ID3 is it?) however, this doesn't work for streaming them . Or rather, I can't make it work! (I have found posts which suggest making an estimate if you know how much has downloaded in so many seconds and you know the length etc etc - but this is exactly that - an estimate!)So my question is how do I get the length of an mp3 clip that I am going to stream?

I am using TextField.length to determine if a TextField is empty or not but it is never returning zero - it is always length = 1 when empty.
Although my code is based on this and seems to work. if (mcApp.txtDisplay.length == 1) {
I can't understand why and am wondering if this may break one day if it is a bug and gets fixed. Or am I doing somethign wrong?

I need to get the length of an MP3 file.I tried using the following code: myFile.id3.TLEN; yet it didn't work.I copied (and changed a bit) the code from the help files and got this thingy:
myFile.onID3 = function(){
for( var prop in myFile.id3 ){
trace( prop + " : "+ myFile.id3[prop] );
}
}
myFile.loadSound(run_url, false);
The code shows me all the parameters I can get. Seems like my MP3 file used id3v1 which may not support time length, so using Winamp 5.3 (last update), I passed the information to id3v2.so I got some more parameters. Here's the output:
COMM :
TIT2 : MySong
TPE1 : Almonimus
TYER : 2006
[code]....
Seems like I still don't have the required parameters in the id3tag. I am aware that Winamp doesn't support id3v2.4 very well, so I downloaded a demo of Tag&Rename 3.2, and as you can guess, even after opening the file and resaving it, I can't get this parameter.

I have an xml file (attached). And what I need to do is find out the number of clients in the list
gallery_xml = new XML(xmlLoader.data);
var list:XMLList = gallery_xml.data.digital;
trace("the list length is" + list.length());
This is what I have so far but it always returns 0.

I want to restrict the number of entries that appear in the drop-down list of a combobox (ie the length of the drop-down). My research suggested that mybox.length = 20 should restrict the number of items in the list to 20 but it has no effect. A trace(mybox.length) gives "undefined" yet flash help says the default is 0.

i have a var lets say 'x' x="i like cheese and want to eat it everyday" i want to split the var x by every 10'th character, assuming the 10 chracter is not in the middle of a word , then i want it to split it before that so that no words are not cut out...
ex:
x="i like cheese and want to eat it everyday"
arr[1]="i like " 7chars causs 10th char was inside 'cheese' and spliting of words is not allowed
arr[2]="cheese and " 10 chars exactly , splits at space
arr[3]="want to " 8 chars 10th char inside eat .. u get the idea by now i hope
arr[4]="eat it "
arr[5]="everyday"
so its splitting the variable every 10th character.. if the 10th chracter is a space, if it is not it backs up to the previous space and for the next array slot starts from there

Is there an easy way to shorten the length of a target name? As you can see in the code below I have added "_snd" to "e.target.name".
Let's say "e.target.name" equals "square_1" so the code below returns "square_1_snd", when the square is clicked on.
What I want to know is how do I get "square_snd" to return?
I would think if you can do (e.target.name + "_snd") then you could do (e.target.name - "_1" + "_snd"), to get just (square_snd), but it doesn't work.
I'm sure .split() and .join() is what I need to use but can someone show how to use it in the code below?
Actionscript Code:
var ClassReference:Class = getDefinitionByName(e.target.name + "_snd") as Class; var mySound = new ClassReference(); mySound();

I want the font size of a dynamic text box to change according to the number of characters of the input text. The user types in whatever (up to 50 characters long), then hits an update button to see it in the dynamic text box. But since the dynamic text can only be a single line within a defined area with no horizontal scrolling.
Here's the code I'm having a problem with:
Code:
updateBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, updateIt);
inputText.maxChars = 50;

I'm using a datagrid in my flash project to create a step action table that is populated by an XML file. The number of steps in the table will change from time to time, so I'd like to somehow make the datagrid length set to auto if possible. In the code below you see that grid.setSize(316,1100);. In it's current format the table will either be too long or too short when I update it's contents from time to time via the XML file. This will cause either a lot of extra white space at the bottom while scrolling or if too short it will cut off the table.
Actionscript Code:
import fl.controls.DataGrid; import fl.controls.dataGridClasses.DataGridColumn; import fl.data.DataProvider; import fl.controls.ScrollPolicy; var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(new

My Flash movie has connected to a server via Socket. The server has sent some data over the Socket connection. This data consists of a 4-byte message header which describes the length of the incoming message and then the message itself. In this particular case, my message has a length of 500040 bytes.
My code receives the first installment of this long socket message in a block of 4,380 bytes. I know this because of trace statements in my socketDataHandler function. It peels off the 4 bytes at the beginning and interprets them to get the incoming message length of 500040. The remaining 4376 bytes go into a ByteArray var (a property of my class) called buffer. As more blocks of data arrive, the socketDataHandler function is repeatedly triggered and the extra blocks are concatenated into the buffer.
