im trying to write an array into a XML file/structure for saving. Using the create element function kept saying something like function is not a value, so im using the XML syntax for the nodes;
Array is 1 dimensional loadedlevelrows[5];
[levelnr,tiletype,tileX,tileY,tilenr];
like: 1,1,11,1,2
1,2,14,7,3
[Code]...
i am looking for a source code which can convert array of pathes to XML structure, for example:

Is there a way to write out an array without the that separates the elements in the array?
View 15 RepliesI seem to run into compile issues in Flash Builder when I import 3rd-party libraries at the wrong level in the directory structure. For example, sometimes I'll import a library one level too deep into its directory tree, and the package explorer ends up excluding the prefix root-level package, usually "com." or "net.". Even though the content of the source itself doesn't change, this will cause compile errors.
Thus: Is it a 1) convention or 2) language requirement that a class's package structure (e.g., "foo.bar.Class") must match its path location (e.g., foo/bar/Class.as)?
If it's a language requirement, why is it a requirement? Wouldn't that overdetermine the package structure, since it is already specified in the source code and quite happily consuming the first three to eight columns of each line? If it's not a language requirement, are my compile errors just a result of Flash Builder enforcing the convention?
I'm dabbling in OOP, but I'm nowhere near proficient yet. I have two classes, house() and town(). In house's constructor, I want to define an exit from the house to town. I've set up a Doors and Exits array in the base class, and in house, I add town to it:
Doors = new Array(new trigger());
Exits = new Array(new town());
This way, I can check if the player is colliding with the trigger, and if so, I can set level to Exits[i] or wherever it is. My problem is, including Exits = new Array(new town()); in house's constructor calls town's constructor, and town has an array Exits, which leads back to house and so on. So my question is: How would I get around this problem or structure my level class? Is it possible to use "town" to get to new town(); without manually checking if("town"){ new town(); } etc. Basically, I want to tell flash to create a new town() WHEN I need it, not necessarily during the initial construction, but I don't want to have to manually call "new town();"
I am trying to write a class file using a .as file instead of writing code into the script tab of a .fla file.When I write stage.addChild(img); I get an error that stage is null. When I take out stage, and just write addChild(img); the code runs fine, but nothing appears on stage. Do I need to do something to set a stage active?
Is this because I don't have a Main class? My class is named after the file and I don't have a file named Main.Here is the code. As it is, it runs and I get the two trace outputs, but no graphic on my screen.
package { import flash.display.DisplayObject; import flash.display.Sprite; import flash.display.Loader; import flash.events.*; import flash.net.*; public class HelloWorldImage extends Sprite { private var background:DisplayObject, foreground:DisplayObject; private var url:String = "hw_jpg.jpg"; private var loader:Loader = new Loader( ); public function

I am trying to user Ravis lib for data visualization and the structure of the XML file that Ravis uses is different that what we use in our company. These are as follows:Ravis XML structure:

<Node id="2" name="Mother" desc="Wife of Father" class="firstLady"/>

I have had to adjust the structure in a XML file and so am trying to adjust my AS accordingly so that it can read it.. but i'm having difficulty as my XML knowledge is only basic.
My new XML structure is:
Code:

<music>
<song>
<thumbPath>thumbs/image1.jpg</thumbPath>

I have a large project, and I need to have a complex folder structure separating all my classes, shared libraries, main swf's etc... I understand how to navigate downwards into a file structure for example: Classes.Buttons.ButtonMain How do I navigate upwards though? My shared library is in a seperate folder, so it needs to navigate up one folder, and over to the Classes folder to reference all the classes.

I am trying to import a video in to flash. I have converted it to a flv and used the stream from flash media server option and selected a standard play and stop bar. I have imported it in and it works find when you just select the individual swf that it loads into. The problem im having is that when I go to it through the home page, all the page loads apart from the video. I've tried moving it around, moving where all the assets to the video are etc. I know the file structure is important to this working. I have a main folder called interactive / and in that have a FLA and a SWF folder and the swf and fla home page. Currently I have the the video swf in the swf folder with the flv and the play and stop swf.

I'm using the code below to allow a user to download a file.The problem I am having is that, if the file is located at/images/english/and I say I want to download it to myDocuments instead of having an images saved in MyDocuments /MyDocuments/1.gif.it creates the same folder structure as the file that was downloaded and saves it here:/MyDocuments/images/english/1.jpg.This isn't the whole code, but I think I included all the stuff relating to downloading files
View 1 RepliesI downloaded the Sothink SWF Decompiler, which allows you to open and view the structure of a .swf file. (the unregistered version limits the amount of actionscript you can view). It even can resave as a .fla file. Does it concern anyone that when you host your Flash code and applictions, it is basically open sourced, whether you want it to be or not?
View 7 Repliesstep1- I got an xml that is locally loaded(works fine)
step2- the content goes into a datagrid that is displayed (works fine)
step3- In AS3 I dynamically add some lines to this xml file(works fine)
step4- I save it locally (works fine)
step5-and want the datagrid to be updated..(works not-so-well)
So, in step 4, the data is saved into the xml file, but in order to finish the save, the user has to click on the "Save as" windows in order to have the file updated of course.. and that's where's my problem, how can i tell flash to wait till the user actually saves the file, before reload the xml file in the datagrid ? here's the code :

View 3 RepliesI'm working on a childrens game (flash as3) in which stories, poems, songs, etc are read to the child. There's a voice recording reading/singing the text, the text highlights as the words are spoken/sung. The child may toggle on and off the voice and word highlighting independantly. The child may also opt to make their own recording. Now said recording works fine. I'm able to capture it from the mic and the child may play it back no problem. The issue lies in that the client wants the child to be able to save this recording to a web server.
I thought I had the issue solved by using a URLRequest and URLLoader object. The mp3 was showing up in the specified folder on the webserver. I played it with a media player and it worked. The child could also load said file no problem. THEN, when I tried it via browser(instead of flash player) I got the dreaded sandbox error. The only way such an operation with said objects can occur in a browser environment is if it's user initiated via a dialogue window. This is children were talking about and we're not saving locally anyway.
The child is provided 3 save slots which they click on (WSprites). Which technically is user initiated, but flash has no way of knowing that. The 3 save slots hold the sounds in memory and only change when the user records or loads. When the user saves, they get sent off to php to save. Now I did try using js as a middleman, but I ended up losing my bytes in the process and my js and php are probly the weakest areas of all my programming skills.

then there is no error, but then, list is now, single dimentional array, which i dont want.
whats the correct syntax to write it as two dimentional array ??

How do i save an array of objects, like this: [{n:1,bb:4},{n:2,bb:4,r:1},{n:6,bb:7},...] to a database? I was thinking i would have to convert it to string, but if i do that, when i retrieve it from the database, how am i going to use it?
EDIT: forgot to mention that the objects can contain an array of objects as well, but there won't be any more arrays beyond that point.

I am creating an option in my application to create a PDF report based on the results from the application.The results are represented as an ArrayCollection of XMLList objects, which I am using to populate a BarChart.To create a screenshot of each result (as a PNG), I am loading the Results Window (a Title Window) and hiding it (visible = false). I am using AlivePDF to add the capture to a PDF report.
I have been using a Timer to iterate through the results, load each result to the chart, create a delay, and then capture the image and add it to the report.
UPDATE.Currently, I am able to iterate through the results (using the Timer), but the chart does not refresh properly before capturing the screenshot and saving as PNG.Essentially,I am trying to see if there is any other possible solutions for iterating through the results and creating a delay so that I may be able to load a result to the chart, capture the screenshot, and add it to a PDF.Is there any other way to do this in Flex?Initially, I was thinking of iterating through the results array using a for loop,but this was not working due to the fact that the results were not loading in time before capturing the screenshot of the chart.
After reading previous forums I've realised there is a corrupt picture that was imported into the file. I've deleted this in the library as people have suggested but still no luck saving the file. It just saves as 1K file.
