What I have to do it's a "profile viewer": for each member of a band I have the profile (some text, and only text).I was thinking about to use this code on the XML file:
So... On the movie clip that show the picture of the member I'll have a textbox to show the 'content' of the profiles. On the keyframe where I have the pic of, for example, Brooks, I'll have this textbox. I want to parse only the content of Brooks, and I wanna do the same for each member (they are 6... yeah, 3 guitars lol).
I get no problems when the number of item returned is more than 1. But when it's only 1 item I get an error cannot convert XMLList to mx.collections.IList. I tried different solutions including trying to cast it as XMLListCollection but it still gives an error for single items. Does anyone know of a way to possibly solve this?
how do i do that? we have a database (microsoft sql) that i want to pull information from. our goal is to have a user click on one of these parts in this diagram
and have it open this window
all of that information is in our database and right now it is parsed to an .xml file. but i would rather parse it to the database instead. is this possible? i dont know what to do, and i cant find anything online. what script do i use to parse it?
I was able to parse one "column" from a CSV file but when I tried to parse another "column", it shows in the dynamic text as "undefined". I wonder, maybe my code regarding the levels is incorrect.[code]...
It's been a about seven years since I have done any work with Flash but now my employer is asking me to create a custom online magazine tool (we're publishers). I've been immersed in PHP and AJAX and building Mac apps with XCode so I've got a bit of a relearning curve to go through.
Anyway, I'm pulling in some XML into a Flash file and want to display some of the various node values in a dynamic text box. That was easy enough, AS3 makes it a charm compared to the dark old days. The problem I am running into is displaying the values - its kind of a runsheet for a magazine - num of pages, ads, features, etc. etc. and I want to display that in one text box in a list type format. So I have something like this:
I have an AdvancedDataGrid tree with a ArrayCollection as its dataprovider. Now, for instance, i drag a leaf from one node to another node. To catch the event I'm adding a Listener to dragComplete.
[Code]...
My Problem: I want to know the new node where the leaf was dropped. Actually i would have expected that in the event there is a property like dropParent. This is not the case.
I thought this was going to be easy! I would like to search an XML file for a particular data set i.e. set of nodes depending on a passed variable. However, storing a subset of my XML file via Code:var gallery = this.firstChild; and then searching 'gallery' as you would an array-using a for()-doesn't work since this.firstChild isn't returning an array
In a nutshell, I'm trying to create a dynamic text box in which text show up for one XML node but not for another, so I have some XML nodes that have info in them and others that don't. This seems like it would be a realatively easy thing to do, but I've been working on figuring out how to do so for days with no avail. I'm working on a template for my portfolio gallery at: [URL] I've linked pdfs to just some of the images in my modified xml slideshow from the tutorial using the following code from this forum:
I am trying to obtain strings from a xml file: I tried the following:
var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("blog.xml"); var xml:XML; var rss:URLLoader = new URLLoader();rss.load(url);rss.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, readRss); function readRss(e:Event):void{ xml = XML(rss.data); txt_field.text=xml.entry[1].author.name; }
I am making a basic graphics program in Flex 3 and I am wondering how to parse data into drawings on the stage, but I'm just trying to figure out how it would work.
I'm rather new to Flash and AS3. I need to call a REST web service, passing it a location code and two arguments, and parse 3 nodes from the resulting XML.[code]...
So we have [URL] we need to get out from it protocol, ip/adress, port, actual url (robot10382.flv here) and actions (action=read here) how to parse all that into string vars in one reg exp?
I have a 3rd party programme which generates the xml file below, and it re-writes the xml file every time a new message is received by that 3rd party programme. What I'm trying to do is find a way to read in the relevant flashvars (if that's the right term) into a flash file (basically I want to read in messages 1 - 6), ignore the rest of the xml, display the messages and then re-load the xml about every 30 seconds (in case it's changed). I guess this is pretty much like a news reader of sorts, but I don't have any control over the structure of the xml file, so if someone could point me in the right sort of direction, then I'm happy to have a go at learning. I did try messing with a basic news reader flash file that I downloaded, but it didn't seem to like the xml - I guess because each message in the xml has its own number?[code]...
I have need to take in an xml document that looks like the following[code]...
I want to isolate the info from say section 10 to populate a movie clip and so on. I have parsed xml before so understand the basics, but am unsure as to how to manage this particular document.
I need to parse an XML feed so it's readable by an AS2 project. I want to use E4X and AS3 for all the parsing and simply load the parsed out document to AS2. Can flash send AS3 code to AS2 like this?
I have simple flash header with menu. I want to know how to append hashtags to the curent url after clicking on any of the menu buttons, so I can use those url-s to change the content without refreshing, in other words: ajax (& all that).[code]...
