how a function can be called at regular interval for limited times in AS3.0 and one more thing the timer should not be started automatically. I have to trigger that method.
View 7 RepliesI've got a simple program that consist of a document class and a buttonTemplate constructor class. I need to call a function called updateText that should be in the document class, when someone clicks on a button. My event listeners for the buttons are in the buttonTemplate class. My question is, how do you call a function in the document class from a constructor class? Here is my simplified code below
DOCUMENT CLASS
Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.text.TextField;

I have 15 movieclips on one frame and would like the first to be displayed and then the rest in a sequence with a two second gap in between each. Is this possible to do? Would it be a setInterval, and would anyone be able to help me out with the script?
View 9 RepliesI've got function that I call using setInterval. The problem is I need to call that function on an interval faster than 1 millsec.
View 4 Replieswhat i'm trying to achieve is to be able to create a random time frame betw 1 to 8 seconds before it calls a movie clip from the library.
Code:
function layEgg(hens) {
//set random time in sec
var timeGap = Math.floor(Math.random()*(8+1))+1;
[Code]....
however the time interval is not working. i managed to trace the random timeGap.
Flash cs4.
What I need to do is make a search function that will find items within the site it self.
Example...
if I have like 100 folder and all are numbered but I dont want to scroll I want to just type 86 and it should go there.
so i have a flash script that was working fine but now i got an error that i dont realy get
Code:
TypeError: Error #1006: appendText is geen functie.

I have a scolling menu, that works wraps around and everything, all nice and pretty.When I place a get url on the button state the url opens,When I place a goto on the button state nothing happens, the supposed scene is a no show.(I have also tried this on the mouse down in the MC state with the same results)I started the scrolling images as buttons then f8'd again and converted to MC's...the MC's have a zoom funtion on them, btu i removed it to see if that was a possible cause to no avail.
View 7 Repliesi have some actionscript that makes a
ExternalInterface.call('someFunction');
call.is it possible to reference the html object that made the call to someFunction directly using the ExternalInterface.call call?
Assume that the object that makes the call also has some Callbacks (via ExternalInterface.addCallback) that are accessible via javascript.
Currently:
Actionscript source
ExternalInterface.call("someFunction");
ExternalInterface.addCallback("someCallback",someASfunction);

If I have a project that I want to make into both a .swf for an online game and an AIR desktop app, can I do that, or do I have to pick when I first create the file? Once I choose 'Flash File (Actionscript 3.0)' or 'Flash File (Adobe AIR)' am I restricted to only one or the other?
View 1 RepliesI'm coding in AS2 using CS4 if it matters.Can I use regular expressions in this environment?
View 3 RepliesI've written a url validator for a project I am working on. For my requirements it works great, except when the last part for the url goes longer than 22 characters it breaks. My expression:/((https?)://)([^s.]+.)+([^s.]+)(:d+/S+)/i
It expects input that looks like "http(s)://hostname:port/location". When I give it the input: https://demo10:443/111112222233333444445
it works, but if I pass the input https://demo10:443/1111122222333334444455
it breaks. You can test it out easily at[URL].. Oddly, I can't reproduce the problem with just the relevant (I would think) part /(:d+/S+)/i. I can have as many characters after the required / and it works great. Any ideas or known bugs?

I need 3 different regular expressions one that finds at the beginning of the string a 'D' and a space then a name, so 'D patrickgates hello there' would return 'D patrickgates', or if all possible would return just 'patrickgates' one that will find the @ sign and a name together anywhere in the string so '@patrickgates hello, world' would work and return '@patrickgates' or if at all possible would return just 'patrickgates' one that will find 'RT' and a space and then '@' and the username at the beginning of the string so 'RT @patrickgates' would work if returning just the username and also being true isn't possible with one regex, then I could use one to match to, and one that will delete the 'D' or the '@' or the 'RT'.

View 0 RepliesI'm trying to create a replace method that allows me to surround parts of a string with tags. I tried this with a regular replace technique (join and split) but thats case sensitive. what i want is:
: "A nice example line"
and replace "Ice" in that line to surround it with bold tags, result:
text: "A n<b>ice</b> example line"
ActionScript Code:
var str:String = "A nice example line";
var pattern:RegExp = /(w+)-(w+)/gi;
trace(str.replace(pattern, "$2,$1"));
But i just can't figure out the replace pattern

I was following this tutorial. He uses the following line for Tweening:
Tweener.addTween(currentContainer, {alpha:1, time:FADE_TIME,
onComplete:function() { slideTimer.start(); }});
Instead of using this special designed class for Tweening, how do I use the standard/regular Tweening within Flash so I don't have to always include the .as file with my project? One other thing is, he uses something like this: intSlideCount = xmlSlideshow..image.length();
What are the two dots between the xmlSlideShow and image.length(); means?
I am trying to understand some basics of Regular Expressions.For just a experiment I wanted to count the total words in a string.var str:String = "hello, this is some text to count the word hello and to check if Hello is ignored by case and if hellow is different";[code]Here i get the array of the values. and using it's length I can use the total number. This works, but the regular expression is not dynamic.[code]

I have a string "4 + x + 5" and i want to change the x to 1x When using a regular expression for x i end up in an endless loop because when the x is changed to 1x, the regular expression finds the x in 1x and applies it to that Is there anyway of making is skip the next character? Here is my code:

I'm having a problem converting a regular expression from Python into Flex. My string is something like this:
SELECT "col", othercol,
othercol3" FROM doesn'tmatter...
Python matches just fine:
>>> re.search('select(.*?)from', 'SELECT "col", othercol,
[Code]..
match always ends up null. What am I doing wrong? I'm sure it's obvious to a seasoned Flex programmer...
Example: "My site is [URL] and yours is [URL]. Is Fred's [URL]? Or is it[URL]? (I thought his site was [URL], but clearly it's not."
This should extract
[URL]
Notes: it should assume that any punctuation following the url is NOT part of the url, e.g. the comma after [URL], is not part of the url. This includes trailing question marks, which I realize in actuality COULD be part of the url. Of course, if a question mark is followed by querystring data, it SHOULD be considered part of the url. Note that urls might be followed by multiple punctuation marks, as in the the case of (Is your url[URL])?
Urls (and their trailing punctuation, if any) will always be followed by a space, a newline/return character -- or they'll be the end of the string being tested.The will be preceded by a whitespace character or, possibly, an open bracket or parenthesis, as in "Please visit my site [URL]." Or they'll come at the beginning of the string.This regexp should work for http, https and ftp.This is for an Actionscript project. I believe that Actionscript uses the same regular-expression engine as Javascript.
I load strings from a mxl. Some of the strings are file paths and some of them are just normal strings. How I can to determine who is a file and who is a regular string?
View 3 Repliesso im trying to figure out regular expressions in Flex, but cant for the life of me figure out how to do the following.From the sample below, i need to extract out only "Mike_Mercury".So i have to somehow strip out everything around it with RegExp, or whatever's best. Also, I would need it to work with other samples as well. Im getting this from the reddit api, so id have to extract that same section from a whole bunch of these.
