View 1 RepliesI 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?
View 2 RepliesI 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.

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.
View 8 RepliesI am trying to insert child node in xml via actionscript as follow -
var xml:XML = <menu>
<item>burger</item>
<item>soda</item>
[Code]....
moreover it returns undefined and as described in actionscript livedocs -
If you call this method on an XML child that is not an element (text, attributes, comments, pi, and so on) undefined is returned.

View 1 RepliesWhen you do a "for... in" loop, it will iterate over a Dictionary for example. I was wondering how internally this is being tracked and how it could be accessed?
I think the Dictionary class stores a reference to the first item, but I would like to access it and check but I cannot figure out how.
when I create an element with this method :
this["nodeValue"+i] = new TextField();
(surely in dynamic class )
then I want to change instance name of that element.when I trace this["nodeValue"+i].name.I got a different name for that element ! f ex : instance8 .how can I get "nodeValue"+i from my element and change that .is it read only ? I want to swap tow element's instance name !
for example :
this["nodeValue"+i] to this["nodeValue"+i+1]
I got this old code, that works. When I tried to compile, it gave many compile errors like
Code:
Error: access of undefined property foo
foo.core.searchButton.enabled = false;
^
for instance (changed the original for the sake of post size, it's so many errors like that with different foo's). So, I did grep the code and realized that there's no declaration of 'foo' in any of AS classes. None of foo-like vars are declared.
Then, I got the only movieclip file in src folder opened in Adobe Flash CS5 and there they are: all of those variables that hadn't declaration in code were names of button, text fields, etc in the SWF. Given that, I thought it was just some compiler argument I forgot to put, but I didn't find anywhere. I looked for alternatives but I wasn't successful neither...
I've got a nested array containing a series of 2 element arrays containing an object name, and text related to that object.I've set it up like this:public var names:Array = [["instance name 1", "text for first object"],["instance name 2", "text for second object"], ...]];What I'm trying to do is to have the text related to the object appear in a text box when the object is moved.This is all set up within a class containing code for the drag and drop functions.If I set the text box to show a specific element, such as:MovieClip(parent).text_box.text= names[2][1];it works fine. But I can't get it to create the value for the first bracket from the this.name attribute.I had it working for 2 arrays - one with the name and another with the text where the code was;MovieClip(parent).text_box.text= texts[names.indexOf(this.name)]; (arrays named 'names' and 'texts', text box named 'text_box')I'm hoping there's something similar that I can do for the nested array, but everything I try gives me the #1010 error - term undefined.Is there an easy way to sort this out - or am I better sticking with the 2 array version?
View 6 RepliesI have an html page with a flash movie embded in it, that flash movie contains a button. I want to pass the id of an element on the containing html page to the flash movie so that when the button is clicked, I get the text of that element in flash (i.e. innerHTML).
So, my question is basically two questions:
How to pass something from HTML/Javascript to flash? How to access an element on the containing html page from flash? (What ActionScript code is needed to do that?)

I am trying to retrieve the element I added to my UI in a different function. I am using actionscript 3. I know I can put the variable into a class variable, so it can be access anywhere in the class, but I have too many elements. Is there anyway I could access them without putting them into class variable?
Code:
public class Test extends SkinnableContainer{

If I wanted to do something like this:
<mx:Canvas xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
horizontalScrollPolicy="off"
verticalScrollPolicy="off"
[Code].....
How would I get a handle on myCanvas (where I'd want myCanvas to be the root )?
How would I access the first element of this array first entering the frame. I want to get buttons[0], or brandingbtn, to be activated as of right now its not working.[code]
View 1 RepliesI 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.
Is it possible to get the id of a swf's containing element? I'm pretty familiar with DOM scripting, so any kind of reference to the swf would be fine. I need to initialize registration of the swf to an array in javascript

View 1 RepliesI have a reference to a XML node which is part of a bigger XML tree. Is there a way to get that elements next/previous sibling without accessing the parent and looking for it? Something like DOM's nextSibling would be what I look for. edit: Given that there is no natural way to do this with E4X, I'll just stick to the following (except that in my case, I'll store the actual index somewhere instead):

I have an XML string, I can use this to get a value of an element, where i is a counter: trace(xml.player.child(i));
But how can I get the XML element?
I have several animated movies (counties in Ireland actually) that when clicked animated up in size and display some information. I then have a button to the left that I would like use to animate the movie back to its original size i.e. close it. Thing is that I would like to pass the name of the current movieclip to the button and use it in a function. I had thought of using a switch statement but id need 26 of them for this function alone. Solving this would reduce my code a lot. My attempt is as follows:

I know how to get one element from the array. But I don't know let's say how to take 3 elements ( position 0,1,2). I don't know how to trace all the three together. I am getting errors all the time.
var myArray:Array = [1,2,3,4,5];
trace(myArray[0]);
trace(myArray[0], ?,?);
I have an array like this
public var dataAL:Array=[
{Kiv:"cash", jan:26,janTarget:28,feb:27,febTarget:26,mar:30,marTarget:32,apr:31,aprTarget:32,may:28,mayTarget:29,jun:46,junTarget:32,jul:37,julTarget:39,aug:40,augTarget:42,sep:41,sepTarget:42,oct:48,octTarget:49,nov:40,novTarget:41,dec:38,decTarget:40},

Now if i want to access febTarget for cash how will i do it?

View 3 RepliesHow do you set a variable attribute of a xml element?This is what I expected to work:xmlElement.attribute(variableAttr) = "the variable attribute is set to this string";
However, I'm getting some error that this value can only be retrieved as a reference and not set.Ofcourse, the following does not work either as it will look for the attribute named "variableAttr" and not for the attribute named after the value of the variable variableAttr:
xmlElement.@variableAttr = "example";
I have a screen with a few components (textInput, textArea, checkBox). I want to check if there has been any changes to the components. Foe example if text has been entered or checkbox has been clicked. Is there a direct way to do this instead of checking value of each component and then setting a Boolean for this?
