Data Integration :: Matching Event.target To XML Node Value?
May 13, 2008
I want Montana data to appear when I click the state of Montana (and so on throughout the 50 states). Montana is the instance name of my simple button on the state of Montana.
Something's not quite right about this line of code:
if (pEvent.target == myXML.statename ) { ...then do something ...}
The code works fine if I say if (pEvent.target == Montana)
Do I have to convert the myXML node value to text orsomething?

I assigned a value in the loadFile function but whenI try to access it from outside this function I get "undefined".How can I have this easily accessible from anywhere in the code? Iknow _global.RootNode will not work for XMLnode types.

I'm aiming to integrate KML geodata. Why won't this work? I just want to create one Node for each <placemark> tag in the xml.
The xml Data trace gets:
<kml xmlns="[UEL]">
<Placemark id="0" type="1">
<name>Zero - zero</name>
<description>This is at zero latitude and zero
longitude</description>
[Code] .....
Yet, I cannot even get the second "success!" trace.

I can't trace(english[1]); ie: an index of the array BUT I can trace(english);
function Article(imagen, sonido) { this.imagen = imagen; this.sonido = sonido;}function makeArray1(success) { var i, j, mainTag; if (success) { for (i=0; i<=moXML1.childNodes.length; i++) { if (this.childNodes[i].nodeValue == null && this.childNodes[i].nodeName == "appear") { mainTag = this.childNodes[i]; } } num_reg = mainTag.childNodes.length; // numero de ejercicios for (i=0;

Kirupa's tutprial "Using XML in Flash CS3/AS3" when filtering the node values, how can I match a text string say "Stephen" with "Stephen E. Ambrose"
var authorList:XMLList = bookInput.Book.(author == "Stephen E. Ambrose");
Using the above code it only searches the node which author value is "Stephen E. Ambrose" but I want to search only "Stephen" and want to get this node returned.

I've got a multilevel node structure that looks something like this
[Code]...
I want to do a search for the first node that matches an id. I usually use this syntax:
xmldata.*.(@qid == "a2")[0]
but it looks like it's not working for multiple nested levels. Is there a way of finding the node without looping through and archiving the content?

I have a dataGrid which i've populated from an XML file.I want to be able to click a row and to use information fromthat row. This seems fine at first, but then when I click theheaders to change the sort order, the data isn't in the same orderas the XML file anymore, so the itemIndex doesn't refer to the itemanymore - only the position in the datagrid.

i have a flash 8 movie that upload jpegs to a server side script. When hosted on an NT server, with a php script that recieves the upload, the FileReference onComplete event gets called correctly when the an image has completely uploaded using FileReference.upload. This when movie is viewed in Flash Player 8, in IE and Firefox on Windows XP and on OSX.
When the same swf is uploaded to an Apache Tomcat/5.5.12 server, with a jsp script to recieve the upload, then the problems start. The upload works ok on both PC and OSX, except that the onComplete event of the
FileReference object is never called on OSX. It is essential to trap the onComplete event for the site to continue with its functionality. (If the file takes long enough to upload (more than a few fractions of a second) the the onProgress event is called while its uploading on PC and OSX.)

k, so i have a function that checks to see if a user name and email that's being registered already exists in my DB. if the user name previously exists, a 1 is returned. 2 for email and 3 in neither previously exist. if i hard code my user name an existing user name, "joe", who already exists, into my php file and run it in my browser, i get an echoed answer of "1" as i should- nothing less, nothing more. if i don't hard code it and run "joe" over from flash and trace(event.target.data);, i get 1 with a bunch of carriage returns after it in my output window.

I've used a lot of XML in Flash, but this one really bugs me and I can't find how to make it work!
I have a simple XML like this one:

I can target the items (there are more in my complete xml) with: project.items.children( )But I can't seem to get to the attributes

I have a video player that is currently using XML for its video library which is all fine and dandy. Now I have some developers working on a CMS type page in PHP that is going to hopefully pass some sort of information to my player that will let it know where the video is stored on our server. Is there a way to do this without using FMS? If so does anyone have ideas where I can find the information for it.

A quick review of the project, I am importing information from an xml file into an array. From there I have passed the information from the array to a variable.I find it that when I try to match the variable to a string letter, that it is not running through the case switch properly and going straight to the default bit. I have tried numerous solution to check where the problem lies;I have trace the actual position of the array to check if it is the correct letter I am trying to match.Did a length check on the variable that it is only 1, and not containing any spacesWhen I hardcode the letter into the variable, the case works perfectly.Any idea on why this is happening would greatly be apreciated. I have pasted a sample of the code below;
var switchTest = initialSlide_array[1];
switch (switchTest) { //switch case used to check template type
case "A":

I'd like to create one empty Flash movie that is essentially a placeholder for externally loaded content I can change through XML. This content would just be able to randomly load 1 of 3 photos, with a button linking to a website within each of the photos on page load. If the user refreshes the page, a new photo with it's link would appear, but I understand since it's random,having 3 images the same image is likely to reappear, but I can always add additional photos and links.
Does anyone know of a tutorial that might lead me on the correct path to create this? I've found some tuts, but they've been different than my need.

We want to be able to upload over 100+ files (if needed) to a server along with desc + keywords. I see that Flash 8 has the neccessary tools to handle file uploading, but my question is, can we have it act as a Stand alone FTP program so that we can utilize the fastest user upload, or will we be confined to the settings in the server INI settings.IE MAX_UPLOAD_TIME,MAX_FILESIZE, etc. If possible we want to avoid using the HTTP upload as it is noticeably slower. So if we can use flash to utilize user BW to upload, then that would be ideal.

I have these buttons in a movie clip and I would like to have only one event listener for the parent, using event.target to point to the children. I have also tried event.currentTarget, and it didn't work.here is the code that works:
test01.abtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, mouseHandler);
test01.bbtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, mouseHandler);
test01.cbtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, mouseHandler);[code]....
It is only targeting the movie clip, not the buttons inside the movie clip.

I got a music portfolio web site running PHP, MySQL and Flash. There's a page showing all the artists my client worked for and when you click on a song title, this title is passed as a variable to a PHP page then to a Flash page. The Flash page contains an actionscript music player which then looks for the right audio file in the database and plays the song. Everything works great except for the dynamic text field which displays the song title. If the song title contains an apostrophe or a single quote, the Flash dynamic text field then shows the apostrophe.[code]

Im trying to use dynamic SQL tables on my PHP server so I need to pass the table name to the PHP script. I don't understand why the Data Management system that sets up CRUD won't allow this extra parameter. It says it can only have one input: item. I can get all records, but when I try to create, update, or delete I get an error.
Or is there another way I can pass the tablename variable to the php file before I call any functions?

I'm trying to read some data in from a sql source, some of which contains double quotes embedded in the text. I know I can strip the doublequotes, but don't want to go that route if I can avoid it. I've tried replacing to double quotes with hex codes before passing the text via parameter to my flash file, but the text string always cuts off at the hex code, the same as if the double quote were present in the string. For example:This is a "text" stringreplace double quotes with hex: This is a x22textx22 stringesults when read into flash: This is a <remainder is dropped>Yet if I type the same text string in a variable in flash, the string displays the double quotes properly:

I will be creating a program to use for data entry. I'll be studying zebras in kenya and I won't have the internet there as I'm recording the data. I'd like to be able to send the data I generate in flash to an external text file. I understand I need some sort of script to do that, but is this something I can run just on my machine? (I'll probably make the data into xml format).

I'm creating a small app to run from CD-Rom/local installation that will use multiple shared objects for data storage. To ensure proper saving without surprising the user with a permissions dialog unexpectedly, I'd like to request unlimited data storage on first time app launch - Joey Lott shows how to do this in the Actionscript Cookbook... request=mySO.flush(1024 * 500);
My question is,Can I perform this permissions request with the user a single time with a generic app SO in global fashion, so that the permissions would be set for any SOs created during the use of the product (all written to same SO directory),or do I have to request
permissions for each and every SO created? Since the latter would be unacceptable from a UE standpoint, that means stuffing all app data into a single SO which doesn't seem so great from a data config perspective...
