Actionscript 3 :: String Replace Characters With MML?
Oct 26, 2011What i'm trying to do is to first of all remove all special characters from a hard coded tweet. What I want to do after is to convert each letter into a specific tone, using MML (Music Macro Language).When i play the tweet via the sound library sion after my attempted replacing i only get five tones through. What am I doing wrong? I'm guessing it's simple, but I don't know anything.I'm coding Actionscript 3 in FDT, which is all very new to me, as is regexp.

Actionscript 3.0 :: Remove Characters From String?
Apr 7, 2010I'm trying to strip the name of a movieclip to just the number so that I can use it as a parameter in a function. The name of the movieclip is mcThumb6 and there are 8 different clips that are numbered 1 - 8. I'm trying to use the .split method to remove the mcThumb and just have the "6" remain. The movieclips all have rollover functions. The rollover event strips out the string and then will call a function using the number (based on which movieclip was rolled over). This is working except when I trace out the new value it adds a comma in front of the number -- i.e. the output looks like this: ,6 instead of just 6.Does anyone know where this comma is coming from?
The code:
mcNav.mcThumb6.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, thumbOver);
function thumbOver(e:MouseEvent):void

ActionScript 3.0 :: Remove/add/round Characters From String
Dec 6, 2010I have to send a string from flash and I need to format it correctly. I'm going to use the restrict property too. Heres what I'm looking to achieve.
1. Remove and commas
2. If there are more than 2 characters after the period, round it the nearest number. Im guess for a minute you have to turn the string into a number then back to a string when processed.
ActionScript Code:
var badStr1:String = '1,000,000';
var badStr2:String = '1,000.98965';
ActionScript 3.0 :: Keyboard Listener For String Of Characters
Aug 25, 2011I have a flash app that I would like to listen for a string of characters being typed on a keyboard. If a user typed in apple as an example that would either be correct or incorrect, and if they typed it in uppercase or lowercase or upper and lower it would still equate to true. Here is the tricky part, the string is not being typed into a textfield or anything like that, it must just be typed and after flash sees the correct keys pressed in the correct sequence it will fire a function.
I have seen this done before in a situation where a website had a background administration application, and when browsing the site you could just type admin, and a window would pop up asking for a username and password, so that is almost exactly what I want. Because of this I figured I would try to replicate the admin application first as it should be simpler
This is what I have thus far
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, keysPressed);
var keyCatcher:Array=new Array(); var keyCatchNew:String;
function keysPressed(e:KeyboardEvent):void{
if(e.charCode==65 || e.charCode==68 || e.charCode==77 || e.charCode==73 || e.charCode==78 || e.charCode==97 || e.charCode==100 || e.charCode==109 || e.charCode==105 || e.charCode==110){
keyCatcher.push(String.fromCharCode(e.charCode));
