Actionscript 3 :: XML Get All Elements By Order Not Element Name?
Feb 14, 2012
I've been able to accomplish this in other languages, but am having trouble in AS3.I have an XML file structured like:
<person>
<q0>answer1</q0>
<q1>answer2></q1>
</person>
And so on for multiple people who are all asked the same 13 questions (q0 - q12).I am trying to push these into an array in action script like so:
function push_array(e:Event):void
{
flashmo_xml = XML(e.target.data);[code].....
(NOTE: the array questions[] contains strings of all the questions and the xml file contains the answers in case that wasn't clear) However this is not working. I know there must be a way to do this rather than getting all the questions individually without a for() loop.

Iīm trying to order elements of an array. When the dates come from dynamics text itīs no problem, bad when come from input text the dates are treated like strings and itīs impossible to order correctly, because 15 is considered less than 3. In both cases I can operate correctly whit this dates like numbers.How is possible to order this dates from input text, like numbers?

I am currently making a quiz game and have an XML file which stores all the questions/answers.I then load the xml, and put all of the info into multiple arrays.
ActionScript Code:
var x = new XML();
x.ignoreWhite = true;
x.load ("Stating The Obvious 2.xml")
[code]....
So, how would I edit the code to make the questions appear in a random order? i.e. Make the currentQuestionNumber be random while not repeating itself.Also, is it possible to make the answers appear in a random order on the screen? For example, instead of the "answer1array" element always appearing at the top and the "answer4array" element appearing at the bottom, is there a way to mix things up a bit?

So I'm loading in an external swf using typical code from a tutorial or something, and I want to have a menu button that sits on top of the external swf. When this button is clicked, the external swf is closed and my program continues. I have everything working, except that I cannot seem to figure out how to get the button on top of the swf.
Since the external swf is created via code, but the button has been manually created in flash, they aren't children of the same displayobject, so I can't seem to use the setChildIndex() call. I either need to figure out how to load the external swf into a manually created movie clip, or I need to create a copy of my menu button and create a duplicate of it as a sibling of the external swf; neither of which I know how to do.

When I use a descendant of the SkinnableContainer (eg BorderContainer) which itself is included or excluded in a state, the child elements in the default state appears in incorrect order. This problem disappears when using a Group instead of BorderContainer, or when the container itself is not included or excluded in a state, or when states changes forth and back. What is going on here? Am I missing something or is this a bug in Flex?

My teacher told me this isn't possible but in case of 10+ images, I can't imagine doing it for every image separately. There has to be a better way to do this, no?

I have a problem positioning a Flash element inside a div tag. The problem is, that the flash element is changing it's size based on the user input. I need a way how I can dynamically get the actual size of the flash element, and to change the behavior of the div element the flash is integrated in. actually I want to place it in the middle of the div. right now I gave the flash element width and height of 100% but that way I can not center the element inside the div...

I know that there is no such function as getElementByName in Flex but I also now that you can do this["object_id"] to get the element of the application u're in.What about getting an element inside another element?I've tried making element["id"] ? But in my try-catch it always runs the "catch" part..how do I get an element inside another element just having it's id in dynamically created string form?

I am creating an order form for my flash site. I have never done this before in flash but I have in visual basic. I have a few questions:
1. Is assigning variable names to checkboxes and radio buttons the same as in visual basic? I mean i know that you probably assign them in the properties. ex..say i name a radio button 'radio1', to run a check in my actionscript whether radio1 was checked or not would it be something like if(radio1){}
2. After the person fills out the form I would like to have the results of the order sent to a pre-specified email adress in a certain format. What would be a good way to do this?

I have flash where there is a link for song download. And, at the bottom of the flash I've a count, loaded thorugh flash vars which should increment everytime donload button is hit. Please let me know what approach should i take to do that. can i call a Java method on donload button which will insert a row in the table and and then get the count and render it to the count variable in my flash?
May be this extremely confusing. Here is a very similar example on how it is done. This is actually very similar to what i want to do. [URL] on this link there is count below which increments you hit the download button.

does anyone know how to shift all the array elements by one or more without deleting the array itself?
Something like rotating the array:

I've built a rather robust tooltip class recently that attaches and draws a single tooltip sprite to the root, then uses MOUSE_OVER to detect when it is over a tooltippable object, and shows the appropriate tooltip text. At the moment, I'm ensuring that any elements in my application which wants to take advantage of showing tooltips implement the ITooltippable interface, and expose a public getter, get tooltip().

Basically I have 14 text boxes, each box draws its content from an external txt file. Next to each text box is a button. I want the button to be either visible=true or visible=false depending on weather or not the text box has content or is "undefined" Here is what I have so far, and it's not working:[code] I would like a FOR loop to just run through the variables and check to see if any of them are undefined. if it is, then make the correct send button invisible.

I am having a problem with my drop traget. I have the ability to drop and duplicate multiple objects on a stage. I have a clip set up (canvas) which is used for if someone drops objects onto this it duplicates the dragged clip.
However the problem I am having is that if someone tries to drop an element on top of an already drop/duplicated element, it wont duplicate the new clip. Its like it thinks that the dragged clip is not over the canvas.

I am trying to make an interactive flash application that works by detecting mouse overs and clicks on various buttons/movie clips and then moves to the appropriate part of the time line. But I am having an issue when I use more than one addEventListener in any one frame. I have attached the code for one such frame below. When I comment out the addEventListner and the other code relating to the followBall function this works fine and directs the user to frame Inlet_Valve_Open_Frame but now only the followBall function is working and when i try to click on the Inlet_Valve_Button movie clip nothing happens.
Can someone please help. I have never read all the help files on the adobe flash CS3 as i don't have time and i have built this code up based on examples i have found online. I wanted to include my fla file but it's to big 6Mb. But i have attached the swf so you have an idea what i am doing.
