View 2 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Push Multiple Strings Into An Array, And Some Of The Strings Are The Same?
Aug 24, 2009I work on AS3 one week, and then take a break for a few weeks, then work on it a day, take a break, etc.. So I forget some of the basics, and need refreshers. I think I need to stop taking breaks.
Problem: I push multiple strings into an array, and some of the strings are the same.
Code:
var myArray = new Array();
myArray.push (Snivvle);
myArray.push (Kirupa);
myArray.push (Snivvle);
I want to find out which element positions "Snivvle" hogs up. We can see that it would be using element 0 and 2, and if we do an "indexOf" we would only get to see element 0, and doing a "lastIndexOf" we would only see element 2. How do I find out ALL of the element positions "Snivvle" is located in, so that it returns: element 0, element 2.

ActionScript 2.0 :: GetFontList() Does Not Gather Alphabetically
Aug 21, 2004i have a combobox with instance name fonts and this code on frame 1:
Code:

[Code].....
it simply populates the combobox with all the fonts on your system...
but it is not very user friendly....
it would appear it orders them in order of date, which were last installed/made....
but if i am to actually USE this it would actually have some use if it were alphabetical...
so my question is this:
how can i re-arrange an array in alphabetical order?
Actionscript 3 :: Inserting XML Elements Alphabetically By A Property
Jan 10, 2010I'm generating an XML file within a class I'm writing. Let's say this was the starting XML:[code]I want to add additional <element>'s. The first order of sorting is by "type", then "x", then "y". So if I add a new "type" of <element>, let's say type "Text", I want Text to be inserted after any "Image" <element>'s.[code]The basic idea is to keep the list sorted as I add more <element>'s to each <container>.The numeric sorting is simple enough, but I can't figure out a clean way to sort alphabetically.The only thing I can think of is to get the types into an Array. Add the "new type", sort and call indexOf()... the number SHOULD be the current position I should insert before?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Jumping Alphabetically From One Item To Another In An Array?
Aug 24, 2006In an alphabetically sorted array, I want to jump from one letter to another. So, when Im with a word beginning with a, I want to jump to the next item beginning with etc
Ive set up this simple script, which simply look at the first character of the current item, then loop in the (sorted) array until it finds a different first character It works very well hen descending! But when ascending, the script sees that there is character change but this is not the first item beginning with that letterbut the last one (since we are coming from bottom to top)
And of course I would like the script to give me the very first item beginning with a new letter.
(So, to summarize, I want to browse an array alphabetically, up & down, so that each time I press on the UP arrow key, I go up in the alphabet.and when I press the DOWN arrow key, I go down in the alphabet)

Apr 13, 2010I'm wondering if there is a better way to approach this than my current solution...
I have a list of items, I then retrieve another list of items. I need to compare the two lists and come up with a list of items that are existing (for update), a list that are not existing in the new list (for removal) and a list of items that are not existing in the old list (for adding).
Here is what I'm doing now - basically creating a lookup object for testing if an item exists.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Stop Flash From Concatenating Strings?
Jan 6, 2011I have an external interface call which I need to pass several values to. Each value has an indentifier string and the value itself.
Code: ExternalInterface.call("submitIUR", answers +"promo", promo+ "url", nextUrl); The problem is that when I pass this through to the javascript function, flash concatenates the identifier strings. So for example if promo is 12345 when passed through the "url" indentifier gets tacked on the end so I get 12345url.
Is there an easy way to separate out the variables being passed through to stop the strings being tacked on to the variables?

Oct 25, 2011I am working with a function that converts csv data to a multi-dimentional array. I am then going through the characters to find specific situations in the way the strings are handled in the array. One example is if I have a string like - "this is a string, yeah" - then I make sure not to count the comma in the string because it is between quotes from that string. Anyhow In the following function I have some how lost my spaces in the results.Instead of getting "this is AS3" I am getting "thisisAS3". Spaces seem to only be available in the strings that have quotes.
