I'm experimenting with data retrieval from xml spreadsheets. I have 5 links in the xml labelled:
<link0>index.html</link0>
<link1>about.html</link1>
<link2>portfolio.html</link2>
<link3>links.html</link3>
<link4>contact.html</link4>

I've just started out working with cookies in flash and looked at the poms tutorials [URL]Is there a list of commands that could get the users browser software etc for example?
View 2 RepliesI have XML data that is loaded into a mulitdimensional array.
I would like to call that information later in my actionscript but it seems that the array has not populated before I want to use it.
I am using the onload() method of the XML object.
I can trace the contents of the array directly after it is loaded with my loop, but later in the code a trace returns "undefined". My array is globally scoped.
I'm not even sure if this is possible, but I'm looking to retrieve a string from an embedded XML file, using a variable as the XML element's name. Here's what my code currently looks like, although it doesn't quite work:
Code:
private final function getAreaTitle(_index:int):String
{
var _element:String = map_XML.mapnode.@title[_index];
[Code]....
I'm not massively familiar with the XML format, so apologies if I've not explained myself very well. As you can hopefully see, I have one XML file containing my map data and another containing my text, such as area titles and locations. What I'm trying to retrieve in the example above is the string with the label "title_training" from the "text_XML" file. Of course, the function should be able to return the title for any area, so I need to find a way of converting "_element" in to the right format
I have a page, written in php that recives and ID value for Album information stored in an XML file. The XML File contains a links to "Samples": I'm trying to get my flash file to "retrive" the data (the ID value) from the php page (the flash file will be embedded), and make a list of samples that can be played. A sorta of an Audioplayer. I already know how to retrive XML data, but the retrival of the ID value from the PHP is a puzzle for me...
View 5 RepliesI'm using mx.rpc.http.HTTPService to retrieve data from a web service. On the initial call to "loadWsData", HTTPservice accurately retrieves all the data.
However, on any and all subsequent calls HTTPService does not accurately retrieve the data; rather it always retrieves the first data set. I've confirmed that the web service is providing accurate data, both from web browsers and a ruby ws client script.

i have a datagrid which grows in size depending on the result of a call to my db. The call to the database returns an object with 30+ values for each row. When the number of rows returned exceeds about 80-90 the datagrid renders odd. It displays the first 50-60 rows fine but then it displays blank rows and they even continue to display outside the border of the datagrid.what is happening? Im using mxml webservice to retrieve the data.
<mx:DataGrid dataProvider="{resultsData}" rowCount="{resultsData.length}" allowDragSelection="false"
id = "confRoomLookupResults" width="948"

okay, so i have a basic drawing app based on
drawing = false;
data = '';
_global.linethickness = "2";

View 4 RepliesI'm developing an AS3 module where the user interacts with certain hardware. One part is highlighting the hardware's features when the user hovers certain points on it. There's quite a lot of work to be done here (about 6 modules with about 30 highlights each) so I figured I would make it as changeable as possible.
On the stage I've placed all instances of a movieclip that acts as the pointer for the highlights. This movieclip uses a class that animates it upon mouseover/mouseout (hence only two animation functions are required for them all). At the same time I want to display a unique text for every point, and this is where the trouble comes in.
I figured I could attach data with each instance to the class somehow, and then create a new text field upon accessing the class. This is what I came up with:
Code:
// Features
f1.name = "V�xla mellan anv�ndnings- och vilol�ge.";
f2.name = "Display.";
f3.name = "Visa den elektroniska programguiden.";
[code]....
As you can see I tried using the instance property name to attach the data, it failed though (I didn't get a compile error for this but I couldn't retrieve the data in the class).How would you approach this? Do I have to create a variable for each instance's data, then match them (same number etc.)?
I am creating an application in Flash CS4 that will load data from an XML file and add a movieClip for each item to the stage. Each movie clip contains a NumericStepper component and Input text field.
The user needs to be able to change the fields and update the XML file for the event.CHANGE event.
The XML file needs to be formed like this. I need to be able to navigate between sections and load the data for each one.
<sections>
<section>
<data>

I just need a push in the right direction. I using the Object Oriented Programming methods with a Document class and movieClip classes to control my application. I have been spinning my tires creating several crippled versions.
I have this little piece of code to retrieve data from a local SQLite database (to an AIR app):
import flash.filesystem.File;
import flash.data.SQLConnection;
import flash.data.SQLStatement;
[Code]....
It is only a "proof of concept" piece of code and it "lives" in the first frame of the timeline of the Flash IDE. What happens? When I compile my SWF (AIR for iPhone), I get this error:
SQLError: 'Error #3115: SQL Error.', details:'no such table: 'background'', operation:'execute', detailID:'2013'
I created a basic db with a Firefox extension (SQLiteManager). What can cause this error? The table exists!
I need to access successfully loaded XML data from the main document class BUT from objects multiple levels deep. I could hack around this setting properties deep down from the top but it doesn't seem like good practice. Is there a better way?

I am trying to learn xml in flash myself and am findingit v.hard.All i am trying to do is create a little 'story' with 3 pages.I have content loading into flash but I am unable to get the next 'sibling' into an array e.g. the title. I can only get page1's title in the array but I can never get to page 2.Here is my xml:
<maincontent>
<page1>
<title>Who is he</title>[code].....
This only traces the first title, how can i get to the second and the third so i can then display them in my text box?
I am retrieving the details from the database and printing them in the XML format. It's working pretty good and can even display the same XML format in the Flex. However, I am not sure, how to save this XML file to give it as a data provider for datagrid.
Here is my JSP code :
<%
ps1 = conn.prepareStatement("select file from file where status='P'");
rs1=ps1.executeQuery();

I am using the following thing to get the details
event.result.body.people.toXMLString();
I've created several textFields, writing:
ActionScript Code:
for(i=0;i<=10;i++){
this.createTextField("texto"+i,i+1,100,100,100,100);
};
That's O.K. But I can't put a text in them... when I write
ActionScript Code:
for(i=0;i<=10;i++){
["texto"+i].text = 15;
};
It simply doesn't work!
I've been unable to send data to a text file. I am making a news poster for a website, but free or any XML, php MySQL or anything else; so is it possible to send data to a .txt file using no other files? is it getLocals or something?

I am trying to make a game like the escape game you might have seen on the internet. I have got all the movement pretty much sorted its just I cannot get the game to restart. I am relatively new the AS3 so bear with me on this. I have a Main class, an enemy class, a player class and a button class. The button class creates the restart button and from the main class, when certain conditions are met, an event listener is added to this button instance to say "on click... do this...". I do not no what to put to make it reset the game however. I have tried to clear all the objects when the game is over but I cannot get the game to restart on click. I figured if I can just add a new Main class instance then the game would be reset but I cannot seem to do it...
Main.as
package Game{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.Stage;
import flash.events.*;
import flash.utils.Timer;
import flash.text.TextField;
[Code] .....
This is where I figured I needed to create a new instance of the main class but it just won't work. It comes up with an invalid data error in the output panel. By this point in the program, practically every object has been removed from the stage and display list and the game is over and is ready to be reset...
I have some problems using dynamic textfields, spent hours to get it fixed but nothing works. Here's the problem. I've created dynamic textfields where visitors can enter their data, like name, address, comment and so on. My website appears on fullscreen when the web address' typed in. When it's in this fullscreenmode, I'm not able to type in any data in this textfield. When I leave the fullscreenmode I am able to type in my data. Also I've created a dynamic textfield, which loads this sent data from an external database. Now I want to add a scrollbar to this textfield, so all the messages that doesn't fit in the field will be visible. I've tried to create my own, without success, even the simple one in the componentspanel doesn't work.
