I am trying to read a XML file and check a parameter for duplicates of that parameter in the file. There could be up to 200 entries with this parameter which is a number. How can I check to see if there are any duplicates?
View 2 RepliesDue to the target website restriction, it only accepts swf file, and I want to pass parameter to this, So I post http:[url]............pass the file parameter this way, and This worked before, But now it doesn't, Where do I do wrong?
View 1 RepliesI have a .exe file (it is a player) i need to pass a parameter to this player so it could play a specific file ( the parameter is the name of this specific file ).
now what i do in windows is
Start>run ( <full-path-to-.exe-file><space><parameter> )
now that works perfictly on windows.
what i need is to be able to start this application ( the player ) and pass the parameter to it, all through a flash button (from the flash player )
Can we skip an optional parameter and assign value to the parameter after the skipped one?
For example I have a function:
public function Dialog(message:String,title:String="Note",dialogsize:int=99):void
{
}
I can easily call the function with a message and a title:
Dialog("HELLO","Intro");
Is there a way to skip the title and just pass in the dialogsize? I've tried it but can't make it work:
Dialog("HELLO",,dialogsize);
Is it possible to skip some optional parameters without using (rest) parameter?
I have created my own file upload flash app that has been working great for me up until this point. It uses PHP to upload the files and sends back a status message which gets displayed in a status box to the user. Now I have run into a situation where I need the HTML to pass a parameter to the Actionscript, and then to the PHP file using POST. I have tried to set this up just like adobe has it on [URL] without success.
Here is my Actionscript code:
import fl.controls.TextArea;
//Set filters
var imageTypes:FileFilter = new FileFilter("Images (*.jpg, *.jpeg, *.gif, *.png)", "*.jpg; *.jpeg; *.gif; *.png");
var textTypes:FileFilter = new FileFilter("Documents (*.txt, *.rtf, *.pdf, *.doc)", "*.txt; *.rtf; *.pdf; *.doc");
var allTypes:Array = new Array(textTypes, imageTypes);
[Code] .....
The flashVars variable is the one that should contain the values from the HTML file. But whenever I run the program and output the variables in the PHP file I receive the following.
//Using this command on the PHP page
print_r($_POST);
//I get this for output
Array (
[Filename] => testfile.txt
[Upload] => Submit Query
)
Its almost like the parameters are getting over written or are just not working at all.
There are a number of parameters that can be added to object and embed tags to embed flash videos. Most are listed here. Some of them can be accessed/changed programmatically via ActionScript (e.g. <param name="scale"> can be accessed via stage.scaleMode).
Can the value for the loop parameter be accessed/changed?
Edit to add: I know about flashvars, that's not what I'm asking.
This is wath my collision function looks like

I have two targets, my question is, how do I use that collision function to check both targets? Should I use an inparameter like ballClass.prototype.collisionDetection = function(target)] and how do I call that funtion from the other movieclips?
this function is use to generate characters, is there anyway to generate character by passing in a parameter instead of check with if statements?
function charcheck() {

A friend of mine has a Flash Action script running on a LAMP server that currently reads an xml config file. He's asked me if it's possible to remove the xml file, and replace it somehow with a system (lets call it an 'auto xml generator') that intercepts the request to read that file and generates an output, so it appears to all intents and purposes as if the file still exists and contains the contents that has actually been returned from our auto xml generator'

I have tried two flash upload components, swfupload and uploadify, and both seem to generate POSTs with a "Filename" parameter. My problem is that the service I'm posting to has a strictly specified set of allowed parameters and Filename is not one of them.
So, is it at all possible to remove this parameter from the post?
Forgive me for this stupid noob question but I want to call a function (loadList) that originally gets triggered after a mouseevent from another function (addToXML) that does not have an event.
The loadList function takes info from a XML var, sticks it into an array which then gets loaded into a tile list and that is working fine.
The addToXML function when called adds elements to the XML var after which I want to call the first function with the event parameter so it refreshes the items in the tile list.
I know it can do this by creating a new array and loading that into the tile list in the addToXML function, but it be much simpler to just recall the function.
I have tried things like
Code:
addToXML.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadList);
but all the event constants I have tried give me error messges like "1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addEventListener through a reference with static type Function."
I have a custom class being constructed from my main class. In the custom class it has another custom class that is passed in as a parameter. I would like to strictly type the parameter variable but when I do, 'the type is not a compile type constant etc'.This, I understand, is because the custom class used as a parameter has not yet been constructed.It all works when I use the variable type ( * ) to type the parameter.I suspect this is a design flaw, in that I am using an incorrect design pattern.It is actually hand-me-down code, having received a large project from someone else who is not entirely familiar with oop concepts and design patterns.
I have considered using a dummy constructor for the parametered class in my main class but the passed in class also takes a custom class (itself with a parametered constructor). I am considering using ... (rest) so that the custom classes' parameters are optional.Is there any other way to control the order of construction of classes? Would the rest variables work?edit)in main.as within the constructor or another function
var parameter1:customclass2;
customclass1(parameter1);

I have a main swf file and config.xml located in the same directory. My .swf file uses config.xml to fetch config variable which it does with success.The problem appears when I put those files into Flex directory. I embed .swf file like this.
<mx:Image id="loading" source="@Embed('/blobs/visualLogo/mySwfFile.swf')"
visible="true" horizontalCenter="0"/>
I also place config.xml into /blobs/visualLogo/
This time I get an error in Flex:

I mean, I use dynamically changing xml-data in my app that I could get straight from the server but it is gzipped. So I was wondering is there a way to unzip it and read it as a xml file with actionscript?

Is there a way to check file name case when loading a file? For example:
My URLRequest has this: "filename1.swf", but the actual file on the server is this FILENAME1.swf. Since the file names do not match case, is there a way i can have flash and AS3 catch this?
How can Flash AS3.0 Read file text while text file still writing by C++ program ?

I'm working on a small validation script, to check elements of a data object for duplicates... it goes a little something like this (hit it!):
[Code]....
and continued my loop, it would work, but instead, it would catch the first duplicate, but miss the rest after that. Basically what I'd like to do is simple: If this record[i] is equal to record[i+1], skip record[i+1] and go through it again... I just can't seem to figure it out
I recently took over an AS3 project someone else programmed. It's quite well done and nicely object oriented. However, I have come across something I have not seen before.
protected function addedToStage ($event:Event) : void {}
The parameter in the function above uses the prefix $ before the parameter name "event". What does this do - if anything?

View 1 RepliesCS4 was working fine for a few weeks, then yesterday I opened an FLA and got an error pop-up that said "Parameter is Incorrect". The error happened for all FLA files. I could save changes but could not preveiw or publish (same Parameter is Incorrect error as on starting CS4). I even made a blank FLA and it wouldn't work either.
Relized today during more testing that this error only happens any time I open a file that is on my desktop (running XP). Same file moved into another folder (Even desktop ewfolder) works fine.
I am dispatching an event and I would like to add a parameter to the event. Is that possible? The event I have is dispatched like this: dispatchEvent(new Event(CuePoints.TIME_IN, true));and gets listened to like this:
cues.addEventListener(CuePoints.TIME_IN, addDefLink); How can I add a parameter to this? Or would this be done differently? All I want is a uint that gets sent with it each time the event gets dispatched.
