ActionScript 3.0 :: CS4 - Parsing Big XML File?
May 20, 2009I have a 6mb XML file, resetting my script timout in CS4 doesn't help. (it does have some unnecesarry HTML in it I could probably do away with, but that would be the wrong direction I think)I can't even trace it.I am loading it into an :XML object and trying to work with it, but all to no avail.
Here is my Class:
Code:
/**

The for each loop wont iterate for some reason, but the for loop will, then again, it always crashes me with:
Code:
Error: Error #1502: A script has executed for longer than the default timeout period of 15 seconds.
(which as I stated above I reset, but as this is a .as file, I don't think it allows that.)

AS2 :: Flash Parsing XML Without Loading An External File?
Nov 8, 2009In my flash, the socket server returns some xml data that I need to parse, but it seems that the only way to start the XML object is with the XML.Load() which loads an external file, but my XML file is already loaded into a variable

ActionScript 3.0 :: Parsing .txt File To Two Dimensional Array?
Nov 14, 2011I am trying to parse data from a user created .txt file and convert it into an Array. This data will eventually be used to output an .xml file or to generate html. The user has no experience or knowledge of XML otherwise there would be no need for this post, I would just parse XML. The data will be set up as a group of items (term and definition, question and answer as well as a type to determine the attributes of the item) like so:
1. How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?
a. The world may never know.
t. ML
2. What is the square root of 69?
a. 8 something.
t. SA
I am currently able to allow a user to have an Open Dialog box to open a local .txt file from their computer. I am also able to read the data and trace it via actionscript. I cannot however split the data where I want to into an array. I cannot use '' to split at as the data from the .txt file may sometimes be multi-line for the question or answer.
So I need to be able to; a) split on a number with a . and a space (eg. '1. ') b) split on a-e with a . and a space (eg. 'a. ') and c) split on 't. '.
Here is the relevant code I have so far:
ActionScript Code:
import flash.text.*;
import flash.net.FileReference;
var tf:TextField = new TextField();
[Code]....
I was just trying to hardcode a couple things like splitting on 'a. ' and 't. ' but it only does one split, whichever comes last.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Parsing Date From An External File?
Mar 1, 2012I'm trying to call to a date in an external txt file (losttime.txt).The date is written as: 2012, 1, 09 in the .txt file.I've loaded the txt file and need to calculate the amount of time between that date and today.Right now, I have the date set in the lostTimeDate variable, but need it to call to the date in the txt file instead.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Parsing Dynamic XML Sourced From A PHP File

ActionScript 3.0 :: Parsing Multiple Attributes From External XML File?
Oct 11, 2008I'm using an external XML file to populate a video playlist. So I'm parsing the attributes like this:
tileList.addItem({label:item.attribute("description"),
label:item.attribute("details").toXMLString(),
data:item.attribute("src").toXMLString(),
source:thumbnail});;
But the "details" attribute is not showing up. Is there something I'm doing wrong? The XML element that holds the attributes looks like this:
<vid description="My description"
details="More detailed description."
src="movies/myMovie.flv"
thumbnail="thumbnails/myImage.jpg" />

Actionscript 3 :: Parsing A Large CSV File, Dealing With Commas And Quotes
Oct 12, 2010I need to load in a large CSV file (>1MB) and parse it. Generally this is quite easy to do by splitting first on linebreaks and then commas. The problem is though that some entries contain Strings that include their own commas. When this spreadsheet is converted to CSV, the lines containing commas are wrapped in quotes.
I've written a parser that first escapes all the commas in these strings, then splits it on linebreaks and then commas, and then unescapes the values again.
This is quite a slow process for such a long string, as I need to iterate through the whole string. Does anyone know a faster or more optimised method of dealing with this?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Parsing A Text File Full Of Binary Data?
Jun 22, 2009i have a large text file full of several chunks of binary data, each chunk separated by "---"
so it looks like this:
[Code]...
I have loaded the data in an untyped variable. var data:* = URLLoader(event.target).data; so data contains all the text file content. my problem is that i want to parse this text file and put each chunk of binary data into a ByteArray.
any ideas of how i can go about doing that? i have never dealt with untyped variables before so i am not sure what to do. and i don't want to lose the binary data representation by casting (if that happens).

Please let me know what approach should i take to do that. can i call a Java method on donload button which will insert a row in the table and and then get the count and render it to the count variable in my flash?
May be this extremely confusing. Here is a very similar example on how it is done. This is actually very similar to what i want to do. [URL] on this link there is count below which increments you hit the download button.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Element Is ITooltippable Vs Element['tooltip']
Oct 25, 2010I've built a rather robust tooltip class recently that attaches and draws a single tooltip sprite to the root, then uses MOUSE_OVER to detect when it is over a tooltippable object, and shows the appropriate tooltip text. At the moment, I'm ensuring that any elements in my application which wants to take advantage of showing tooltips implement the ITooltippable interface, and expose a public getter, get tooltip().

ActionScript 3.0 :: Parsing XML To Flash?
Sep 26, 2008This is my first day to try and use XML to display dynamic text in Flash. My skillset is weak with AS3 and Flash, but I found some tutorials online and I have managed to successfully display the first record in mytest.swf. However I also seem to have all records displaying in each dynamic text box as well. My loop isn't stopping after each record. It's reading everything. And dumping the results into each text field.
I need to only display each record individually. Once I accomplish that, I will need to include some form of navigation. Lets say buttons that perform a NEXT, PREVIOUS, LAST, FIRST type function. Then lastly, I'll need to include some type of search navigation option by item number. I assume that I'd have to have a second screen that links to my primary results screen with an input form for the item number.
