Do you know any way to compare a date to a range of date using the Date class in as2.
For example i want to know a given day (11-12-2009) is among the start and end date of a given range (11-01-2009 to 11-20-2009).

I'm trying (and struggling) to get my head around AS3 and am building a flash webpage. I have 2 layers in the timeline, each containing a movie clip matching the page size with instance names backgroundDay and backgroundNight. What I'm wanting is for the background to change for the day and night, so that from 18:00 to 06:00 the alpha of backgroundDay becomes 0 to show backgroundNight behind.

I'm trying to change the selected date text-color.
<fx:Style>
.dateChooser{
selection-color:#000000;
}
</fx:Style>
I changed my selected date (FEB 23) selection-color to black, but I also need to change the text-color, let's say to white.

I have a situation where I have a date in this format.
Code:
var currentDate : String = "09/22/09"
and I want to be able to change this dynamically to the next date.like you had currentDate +1. The reason for this is the user selects this date but I want another field to display the next date after this.I thought about using the date object to take care of this for me but I'm not sure that will work.If I pass the date object this format it returns.
newDate = Wed Sep 22 00:00:00 GMT-0500 1909
I could start stripping out the currentDate and adding in lots of if statements for the month year and date and figuring out leap years but I thought the date object could solve all this.

I want to make a Flash app that will scroll text whilst music plays. The music part is easy, but scrolling the text...I've tried simply importing ALL of the text, resizing, and scrolling that one giant object upwards, but when the screen was full of text it began to slow down. I need the speed uniform to sync it with the music in the background.
I could have a 70,000,000,000 frame movie and move each element individually, avoiding the heavy load, but the amount of work on my end this would require would be so astronomical that it just wouldn't be worth it. Ideally I want something like a component that I can dump text into and have it deal with making the scroll speed uniform.
It would also be a major plus point if it could be used/created by another program, so that someone without Adobe Flash could produce a similiar kind of movie simply by putting in their text and MP3 file and hitting a "Generate" button.

I'm trying to design a class that uses functions from multiple classes, but as Google tells me, you cannot extend multiple classes.
Here's my code:
Code:
package com.levelGenerator {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.KeyboardEvent;
[code]...
How do I use the Keyboard functions and nextFrame() without extending multiple classes?
P.S. A language with object-oriented principles that doesn't allow multiple inheritance? Lame...

changing the content of text fields that are on the stage of the main timeline from within an external class. I have created a countdown timer which is called from the Document Class. I think it is a problem with the scope of the variable but I can't work it out.

Im making different quizes and small games. I always use a Document Class when coding, and usually i call this Main.as. Usually the Main.as contains pointers to different classes like:
private var _menu:Menu;
private var _messageBoard:MessageBoard;
etc..
My question/scenario is this: In for example _menu, i have a button that has an event listener on it (example: "Start" button). When this event is triggered (ie user hits "Start") I want to trigger a function in Main.as. How is the most elegant way of doing it? The solution i use now, is that i send a reference pointer of Main.as to each new class i make. ie in Main I would do something like this:

I am not able to understand, why a static class cannot replace a Singleton design pattern .
Cannot a static class, can be used to ensure, the class is never/once only, instantiated. Because that is the facility "static" key words provide , however it doesnot allow instantiation, but that is much similar to the limitation of instantiation once only.

This may seem like a noobish question (and it is) but I have created some AS code to help assist in a project of mine in a level design class to create a mock interface for a game. It works fine on the first screen but once you hit any button and go to the next and then try to go back, the code breaks and I am not sure why. Ive tried multiple things to get it to work but nothing seems to help. The code I am using is
ActionScript Code:
storybtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, start1);
function start1(MouseEvent){
gotoAndPlay(2);
}

I've created a Button in Adobe Flash CS5, it's a Symbol, and its type has been set to Button.
The button has a dynamic textfield with the instance name label.
I've set the class of this Button to MenuButton, and I've set the class to Export for ActionScript.
This is the code of the MenuButton class:
Code:
package
{
import flash.display.SimpleButton;
import flash.text.TextField;
[Code]....
Whenever I put a string in MenuButton's constructor, label's text doesn't change.

There is a library component represented by Class A. But constructor of this class requires some parameters. When the component needs to be added dynamically, it's fine because of code :
var abc:A = new A(param1,param2)
But what if my movieclip is already present on the stage. I notice it gives out error, that the parameters are null.
Is their any way to insert constructor parameters for movieclips already on stage.

how to speed up the workspace when there happens to be a large amount of text on the stage? I have tried everything I can think of (even choosing outlines only for the layer). It seems to slow down my system even if the layer is not visible. Now doing anything is a chore. I have a pretty fast system, and it's pretty bad that after all these flash iterations I still can't have text on the stage and continue work.
