Jun 8, 2010

I am currently working  on an educational project. After submitting for review, the clients have  requested I make an array which was hard coded in the as file, to read  from xml. The problem I am having is that I do not know how to populate  the array with the information contained in the xml file.
 
hard coded in the as file
 
wordList  = ("Paper,Plastic,Reduce,Retrieve,Litter,Trash,Glass,Recycle").split(",");
  
I am  wantying to replace the word lists that are included with the  information in the xml file so as to allow different users to create  different words for the list without having to edit anything othere than  the xml file.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Populate An Array With Info Loaded In From An Xml File?

Nov 27, 2006

I'm trying to populate an array with info loaded in from an xml file. I've got the xml loading fine and I can trace everything but cannot seem to access the info outside of the function...here's my code:

Code:
myXML.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
populateNav(myXML);
} else {

[Code]...

My trace inside of the populateNav function works great...all the info is there and image_path returns all of my...image paths. So my XML is fine...what I can't seem to do is pass that info outside of the populateNav function. My imageholder trace returns undefined. I think it's got something to do with the fact that the imageholder trace is being performed before the xml is fully loaded...not sure what to do about that though.

I have a TextField on stage in a as2 version of Flash. Using the properties panel I'm trying to populate with text from an external file.

The text is in a file called about.txt located in the same folde as the swf.This is the contents of that text file:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Push Multiple Strings Into An Array, And Some Of The Strings Are The Same?

Aug 24, 2009

I 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.

Data Integration :: Load Individual Strings Of Text From An External File?

Feb 21, 2007

I trying to load indivual strings of text from an external file. example: I have a movie that navigates from frame to frame. on each frame I'd like a line of text to load into the movie. When the user navigates to the next frame the text loaded vanishes and is replaced by another line of text. This can be done with separate txt files, right but I was wondering if and how it could be done using one external text file.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Populate Array From Combobox Items?

Sep 14, 2006

I'm currently working on a project where I have a user defined list of urls which is saved in a local SO. When the movie is loaded the ComboBox is populated with the values from the SO (Stored as array inside SO).I want to give users the option to remove items from this list. So far I have managed to remove the selected item from the combo box, clear out the SO and loop the remaining ComboBox items, but, when I try and load these item into an array to parse back to the SO, the array is created and creates the correct amount of elements, but, each element is populated with only the data from the 0 index item of the ComboBox.My code so far: (This sits inside a button component and is invoked onClick)

_root.ComboBox.removeItemAt(_root.ComboBox.selecte dIndex);
_root.ComboBox.selectedIndex = 0;
_root.local_data.clear(); [code].......

Actionscript 3 :: Array Syntax To Populate Flash Combobox

Jul 31, 2011

I've got an array that looks like this, iterating through:

(languageArray[i].languageName); //e.g. "French"
(languageArray[i].languageCode); //e.g. "fre"

I'm trying to populate a fl.controls.ComboBox dataProvider with this array. What I want to do is set the labelfield, as shown in the documentation:

[Code]...

In other words I want the name to be displayed, and the 'data' to be the code, which will be called when I click on the item. But the labelField is not the same as "French". How do I create the two fields in the array such that I can designate the first as labelField and the second as data?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Create A Mini Map Which I Can Populate With The Contents Of An Array?

Jan 2, 2010

Currently I am trying to create a mini map which i can populate with the contents of an array.I can make any size grid with little to no trouble in AS3, for arguments sake I have been trying to get a 4x4 Grid populated.I can even make listeners inside the new class but i cannot figure out a way to give each new MiniMap tile a unique identifier like i would of in AS2 and then assign the current frame to play.I have looked around and tried a few tutorials with no success.I have been using this to create the tiles (inside two for loops to make the grid)

Code:
var MiniMap:MiniMapTile = new MiniMapTile();
addChild(MiniMap);

Here is how i did it in AS2 for anyone Interested.

Code:
_root.MapTile.duplicateMovieClip("Tile" add i, i);

Edit: I have done it the long way :/ made 12 separate objects. Incredibly convoluted.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Can't Get Numbers In Array To Not Be Strings

Feb 27, 2012

[code]I have information coming in from an XML page. One of the childnodes is an ID. The numbers of the IDs go from 29 to 40. I'm trying to have 6 numbers randomly grabbed from the list, so I made a function to find a random number between a given "Low" and "High" numbers, then another to continuously add 1 if it's already one of the other numbers(I'm pretty sure the method of that part, I could have taken a short cut.)Where it says to trace the two numbers near the top of the find5RandomNumbers function, they trace 29 and 40. But near the bottom where it's told to trace all 6 items, they come back as "NaN."[code]

ActionScript 2.0 :: Populate Scrolling Text Field With Multidimensional Array Values?

Dec 16, 2006

I have a detailed results page to which I want to post all the questions, answers, and whether the user answered correctly or incorrectly. All this information is stored in a multidimensional array and its successfully showing the results via the trace method.

My question is, what is the syntax for populating a dynamic text field with these results? Do I just write out one long line of AS with the newline command to separate the data? How would I go about applying bold to certain parts of the stored data that I will be showing?

Here is current code for my detailed results page:

function showResults(){
trace("Now showing results");
for(var i:Number = 0; i < NumberOfChallenges; i++){ //This calls the length of the original array (not the spliced copy)

The more I get into haXe and cpp the more I'm wondering this about as3. Iteration in as3 is easy in comparison to those languages. But if Array extends Object, overriding getters and setters to create what's basically an IntHash<string> or map<int,string>, and which only takes an int as a key, then why shouldn't the key iterator also return an int? Why does it return a string?
