ActionScript 3.0 :: Filter String To Remove One Of Variables
Oct 29, 2009
I have used flashvars to send a URL query string to my movie, though I need to filter the string to remove one of the variables.For instance, I am trying to remove 'var2' from: var1=aaa&var2=bbb&var3=ccc..However, the query string is not the same every time. For instance, sometimes 'var1' may equal 'aad', 'var3' may equal '183', etc.So basically what I need to do is, regardless of what is contained in the string, always filter out 'var2'.
I have a menu that is a type of wave, thus I'm using Flash, not HTML. My issue is that I have a bevel on that wave, but that bevel extends onto the text that is a child of the MC that has the bevel. Is there any way that I can remove the bevel from the text (Or technically shapes since they were imported from IL) without removing it from the entire element?
And yes, I've tried this.filters=[];
Also, I can't keep everything one shape in the MC, because I have hover attributes.
I need to be able to pass some variables FROM flash and append it to the end of my address. I assumed that if I used LoadVars, I can append the vars to the end of the string like this:
ActionScript Code: send_btn.onRelease = function () { var my_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
I have a list of strings that I add to an array, then attempt to set those values in a for-loop using data that I read in. The array gets updated, but the values the array contains do not. I also have an array of buttons that I update this same way that works great, but strings don't seem to work the same way. I have tried moving the string array to give it full scope, and still nothing...
public class test extends Sprite { // Declare a list of strings protected var title0:String = undefined;
I'm trying to figure out which is more efficient in terms of memory and speed. What I'm doing is having a series of messages loaded to the screen. Is it just faster to write them in string variable or in an XML document which is more versatile in terms of editing and adding on to the document.
I looked at the following example in the AS3 Reference: [URL] It is unclear to me looking at the package example how to apply this in standard ActionScript 3 without packages to a Movie Clip resident in my Library that gets called at RunTime. how I would push the DropShadow filter onto my Movie Clip at RunTime?
To achieve a zoom effect in our 2D flash game, we make the background of the game much bigger than the visible stage. This becomes a problem when the background is complex or when we apply a grayscale filter to the background. Is there a better way to do zoom? Or, is there a way to apply the filter to only a specific area of a movieclip?
this is how i am adding information to a pop up e mail. how do i do the opposite of this and take this away from the e maili tryed changing the add to delete but it did not seem to work.
on (release) { _root.Options = _root.Options add "Please put me on your mailing list" add ", "; }
i have some strings with numbers "txt_r1" or "txt_ty67" and i want to remove the numbers. numbers always at the end but can be different lengths.have tried using substring which can get me the end numbers, but I'm looking for a method to remove any numbers in a string.
if i have this, for example:<font color="#9378FE" size="28">LOREM DOLOR IPSUM SIT AMET</font>how do i remove any occurence of html tags?so that i am only left with:LOREM DOLOR IPSUM SIT AMET
I have a string in a variable called lets say "mcName". I want to loop through and remove all the numbers in it. there is always a number at the end but it could be 1, 2 or 3 digits long so i can't just slice the last letter.
I'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
I'm currently searching google whilst I ask this - I just couldn't find anything on my initial searches.Are there any quick ways to remove all non-numeric characters from a string?For example my string would contain:
'code: 1234'
I would wish to remove the 'code: ' part from the string just leaving '1234'.
I 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';
I have a multiline textfield were users can type text. I split the text in words so I can compair them to see if they are a certain word. Some words don't pass the if statment even if they are the same (at leased to me). I found out it's because these words have a hard return in front of them. I need to remove the hard return, but I can't find out how. I tried to split the string on " ", but that doesn't work.
I am trying to remove / replace white space from a string in as3. The string comes from xml and than written into text field. To compare the strings I am trying to remove white spaces
var xmlSentence:String=myXML.SENTENCE[thisSentence]; var tfSentence=e.target.text; var rex:RegExp = /s+/; trace(xmlSentence.replace(rex, "-")); trace(tfSentence.replace(rex, "-"));
That code outputs like this: She-has a dog -She has a dog
I also tried different rex patterns. The problem is that though there are spaces in both string -which are same- it finds only one space but not the same one in both strings.
For a project, I'm trying import htmlText into flash, and then remove any items flash will not process. For example, the html I want to import contains custom "[caption][/caption]" code. I essentially want to remove these identifiers and any text from in between them so that flash will not display them in a text field. Does anyone have a good suggestion/example for me? I have been trying to figure out how to use regular expressions to do this, but have been unsuccessful in finding a good guide for it and so have failed.
And example of text I'm trying to filter:
<em>Pushmo</em> is a game filled with questions. How do I solve this puzzle? Is that a 8-bit Mario's face? Why is this old, obese blob making tons of death traps that easily ensnare and encase unsuspecting children? [code]...
