ActionScript 3.0 :: Way To Check If String Is Longer
Feb 22, 2011
I have a regular expression in my code. What I want it to do is to check user input. This input should be a string of 9 numbers with spaces between them. So for example "1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9" should return true, but also "123 45 2765 23 3456 23 5 456 1" should be true. [code]My problem is that if the strong with number is longer, the usual test method still returns a true. Is there a way to check if the string is longer then this?
I have made a pixel font using an array and have made it so it scatters from the mouse, (magnetic effect).Example at BladeMonkey Test Page.However if i make this string longer it slows down quite severly.
I am looking for a way to check if any sting of the Array is matched to the string that in the TextField. In the code it should be something like that:
Code: var TestString:Array = new Array ("chicken", "cat", "dog"); function LookStringArray(){ if (TestArrayTextfield_txt.text == (anyString.TestString)){
Good technigue for finding out if a string has any letters?I'm not looking for a specific letter, I just want to search a string and find out if it has any letters.
I want to check to see if a string is in an array, so basically: If (string1 == [any item in array]) { // do something. } But I am not sure how to write it..

I'm new to actionscript and i cant seem to get the regex syntax right in actionscript3. The task is straight forward, i want to make sure that the first two characters in a given string are alphabets and nothing else.[code]
i want to know how to check if a string is in an input field, so it returns a boolean. I know the answer will be simple and i tried googling it but nothing helpful came up.

I've read some documentation about regular expressions in AS3. I was wondering if it is possible to check every word of a string for a pattern. If all the words satisfy the pattern, the test is passed, otherwise is failed. [code]
I had to check a text input from a user to se if is inside an array, the array contains single words with possible answers. What I need to know is; if somebody for example type the "sky is blue" and the array contains "blue", I want it to recognize it even is there's more words in the given string that are not in the array.
In _root exists function "path=load_Path()" which is triggered when an button is pressed. The result of this function can be "photos/folder1/image.jpg" or "folder1/textpage/" or any other path. What I'm trying to find out is how to get value of "path" automatically when it's changed or get callback whenever function "load_Path()" is triggered.
I don't have possibility to access this function because it's in _root SWF which I can't edit.reply.

Code: var reg:RegExp = /[a-z]/i; var str1:String = "a b"; var str2:String = "a 1";
give me the Regular Expression that can check if a given string has any HTML code in it, and coming to think of it I would be bothered with <a href="something">something</a> exactly.
I've tried the following code to check if a dynamic text field has a number or string in it. My problem is that after adding the new if statement (first one) it's the only one that will execute so I don't even know if it's checking whether it's a number or not.
what I want after pressing the button (calculate_btn)is to get thees values entered from these input texts into 3 vaiables.
var $money var $percent var $years
and check if the inputs are numbers only not string not empty. I tried to convert the inputs to numbers to insure that they are numbers without making a function to check the inputs but always I get NaN when I entr value like 444bb;
ActionScript Code: error_txt.text = "Enter some values to calculate your loan"; //--------Make the button listener----------//[code].........
I'm using flash CS4 and actionscript 2.0. I have a situation where I need to locate and check the date of an external file (either .exe or .swf) and return that date string to a variable in flash. I then need to display that date to a piece of dynamic text within the flash file. Is there a function within action script that will check and retrieve the file date of an external file.
See [URL] Now there is a button called Answera, which when clicked should have a symbol (movie clip) called Check appear at the cordinated specified. Check exists in the libary (but does not have an instance name) and no where else on the stage. when I run this code I get: 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method Check. -> var rightCheck = new Check(); How is it undefinded if it exists in the libary?
The following is my codes. This is still work in progress; so, you will see some functions with empty contents. Plus, this is my first Flex application; please bear with me. This is a quiz application that gets the questions and answers to each questions from a ColdFusion web service. There are three types of questions, True or False, Multiple Choice with single selection, and Multiple Choice with multiple selections. So, based upon the question type, the application would dynamically generate the appropriate amount of radio buttons or check boxes for the users to select. I got these working. The problem that I am having is, I am not sure how to check what the users have actually selected. In some other forums and posts on other web site, it said that I can use event.currentTarget.selectedValue to get the user selection. But when I actually do it, I got a run-time error saying, "Property selectedValue not found on mx.controls.FormItem and there is no default value." My question is, what do I need to do to capture the user selections?
I have been working on a flash site for some time now and everything has been fine until today. I edited some of the text, and saved and now the flash will not load, it just sits as a white box. This is the first time I have ever ran into this problem. I checked all of the file destinations and even replaced the .swf with a different .swf file and the second one worked... So this leads me to believe that something horribly wrong happened to the flash file.
