Currently I am trying to make a function that will split a text from an input box when it detects a return/enter. I know how I can save this stuff when encountering a space -
ActionScript Code:
var puzzles:Array;
puzzles = boxInPut.text.split(" ");
However, what kind of code should I enter between the "" when I want to detect a return? Detecting and saving stuff on runtime is not a good option - I'd rather save and run all the data that the user enters once the 'process' button is clicked by the user. So I need the split function to work with that as well.
I have a string that contains a full name input, and I would like to spilt them into 2 parts and save them inside an array, first name and last name. How do I do it with string.split? My current code is myNameArray = str_adminInput.split(" "); This code only works if the names are : Jack Lee, June Poh. This code does not work if the names are: Lee Tok Kong, Tan Beng Seng.
I'm trying to use a string from a split command as the var name of a new array the string being split is spec0[1][400] where spec0 becomes the new array name after the split.How should i write this.....P.S. the ultimate goal is to take the string split it up and make a new array out of its split data......is this realistic?
PHP Code: trace(loader.data.spec0); var str:String = loader.data.spec0;
This works fine but when I upload to my clients server the url might be somewhat different. Is there a way to split off the last 14 characters and see if they = slideShow2.swf or is there a command if the string contains "slideShow2.swf".
I want to add this String into the ArrayCollection. And the above String should be divided by mail id and remove the ; symbol and need to add asArrayCollection
tempAc:Arraycollection = new ArrayCollection{abc@abc.com, xyz@xyz.com}
I have been using as3 for a while now although I am unsure of how to split the data. I am currently writing a custom score board for the Finish Lynx System using serial comms and tinker proxy. RUNOFFICIAL <= I don't know how to split this string?
I'm having a big issue getting a string to split into two pieces, and I can't for the life of me work out why. This is a function that is run, with the midText var, being a number between 0-100, spat out from a loader. I've traced it, and it seems fine, but my splitter function just wont work! The function works fine if you simple define a var in the code
I'm trying to convert a String into an Array of words. To do so I split the String when a space is met, and make a new Array containing only the words. The problem is when I try to get rid of any whitespace. The code works as intended for the whitespace between the words but ALWAYS fails to remove ONE whitespace if there are spaces at the start of my String.
[Code]....
As seen it accounts the last whitespace in front of my sentence as a word and doesn't remove from the Array.
When you want to split a string in to an array, seperated by the letter "e" for example. So string: 0e5e8e7 would become 0,5,8,7..[code]Is there a way you could split a string by multiple values? So instead of it splitting the string when it comes across "e", could you have it split when it comes across "e", or another character.
I'm trying to take the letters I have in a string var, eg "EXAMPLE", and display them in a textField like so:[code]Maybe I'm trying to make it too complicated, but I can't seem to figure it out. I'm using the following code:[code]The textFeild shows nothing (the textField is coded correctly, as it shows regular strings).However, the trace shows it as:[code]I've got the textfield set large enough to accomodate the text.Is there a better way to split a string into individual letters, and then display them in a field one above the other?
what I need is simple thing, I have string which cantains data - time retrived from mySQL in mySQL format HH:MM:SS YY-MM-DD what I need is to split this string in actionscript to array of numbers like this
HH MM SS YY MM DD
so I can compare it with current time, how to splite using multiple delimiters at first, then compare it with current time. this is my work until now
var param:Array = datetime.split(" :-"); var currentTime:Date = new Date(); var seconds:uint = currentTime.getSeconds(); var minutes:uint = currentTime.getMinutes();
Can we do a conditional checking on string.split() method?what we want to achieve is split a string into array at places wherever "%" is found but do not split at places "#%#" in the same string. Is there any alternative ?
I rarely use regular expressions and still have a hard time reading/writing them sometimes (getting better, though), but I came across a situation where I needed to split up sentences in a text file and store each sentence as a separate item in an array.
To do this, I have tried to use the split() function by passing it a regex to detect ends of sentences... for most cases, anyway, which includes ., !, or ?, optionally followed by " or )
(What this code does is split on condition of a blank space but only where it finds a preceding/prefix that includes end punctuation, plus a lookahead/suffix that contains the beginning of a sentence, such as a capital letter)
The problem is that this doesn't seem to work. It works like a charm when I test it in Expresso free regex writing and testing software), but then when I try to send it to the split, it doesn't split the items. Do I need to do escapes for special characters when sending regex input to a split?
What I am trying to do is take a string of numbers and convert it into an array, while cutting out the non-digits. Here is the format:1.0000000e+000 1.3668423e+000 1.0000000e+000 1.3668423e+0001.0000000e+000 1.3668423e+000So it's basically: Space, Space, Digit, Space, Space, Digit, NewlineRight now I am using the following code (myString is a String, and dataSet1 is an Array):
var reg:RegExp = new RegExp(" "); myString = textLoader.data;dataSet1 = myString.split(reg);
Is it possible to split a string like "Lorem ispum dolor, sit amet. Howdy doody." into an array of words without commas and periods, in one operation?I've tried words:Array = startString.split(String.fromCharCode(32,44,46));i guess the reason my example doesn't work is because it searced for " ,." to split the string.

I have a question; is it possible to animate an array that contains a split string? I've added the string into a dynamically made textfield, and I'm trying to figure out how to have each letter appear one by one, creating the typing effect and have easing towards the end.
public class InfoPage extends AbstractPage { private var _info:TextField; [code].........
I have an external .txt file that contains data some variables with strings in them. I need to be able to tell if a string has a certain type of character in it. Like for example "no,yes"I want to detect the "," and split that string up at that point and assign the "no" and the "yes" to variables.Similarly if I have the string"1-100" or 1-2-3-4-5-6-7I want to detect the "-" and split that string up at that point and assign the "1" and the "100" to variables or 1-2-3-4-5 to variables
There's an array, lets called it arr1. There is a switch, that pushes argument to this array, but after the switch ends, I'm stuck at join("").split("");
var arr1 = []; switch (myString) { case "apple": { arr1.push("apple"); break; }}} arr1 = arr1.join("").split("");
I know is simple, but I never had experience with arrays in flash before, I just realized join("") was used to convert the Array to string, but isn't split reversing this?
I have a string provided to my flash file that I need to break into a max of 3 sentences(strings).
I have written some actionscript to break it up by set lengths, but I also need it to not break words up.
To test you can place the following code in a blank as2 file.
Code: var personalMessage:String = "You got this far so we reckon that you could be curious enough to learn a little more, we�ll contact you shortly to answer any questions you may have."; _root.myArray = new Array(); _root.myArray = personalMessage.split("");
I have piece of ActionScript code which is supposed to evaluate a string of HTML and break it up into individual pieces. So a string like <p>Hi</p><span>Hi</span><a href="index.php">Hi</a> would be translated into:
However, when I run a test version of this code, I get a value of null in return. I'm pretty sure my regexp string is good, but I'm doing something wrong in ActionScript. My code is below: var evaluatedInput:RegExp = new RegExp('/<([A-Z][A-Z0-9]*)[^>]*>(.*?)</1>/'); var output:Object = evaluatedInput.exec("<p>Hi</p><span>Hi</span><a href="index.php">Hi</a>"); trace(output);
