it is possible to do search / replaces in script, text etc over multiple files? If not, is there any 3rd party software available to do it?I have hundreds of files I have to make the same change in and just wanted to find out before I have to do the mind-numbing process of going through them all.
This replaces the 2 but of course also replaces all the other instances of 2 in the htmlText as well. Is there any possible workaround? Can I exploit the fact that the other 2's are inside quotations and someone not mess with those ones based on that fact?
Any way to search for a code snippet throughout all symbols and frames and mass-replace?Movie Explorer lets you copy all the actions showing to the clipboard but you can't replace.
search and replace text nodes from following string:
MY ORIGINAL STRING: var strTemp = '<p><text textId="textVariable1">This is my first text node.</text></p><question type="first">This is a first question.</question><p><text
String.prototype.replace = function(find,replace){ return this.split(find).join(replace).toString(); } // Example: foo = "Let's replace all the e's in this sentence with an o."; trace(foo.replace("e","o"))
How would I replace the first "e" with "a", the second "e" with "b", etc...
Is there an easier way to search for ActionScript in an FLA? I've inherited a Flash Project from a former co-worker, and have been searching for this particular source in my FLA file, but have not been able to find it:
[Code]...
I'm well aware that it's there _someplace_ and have tried going through every symbol listed in the project, to no avail. When running the movie in the debugger, I see it lsited under "Actions" for the button symbol "mpbutton". However, when "editing" that button, I see no such actionscript associated.
I have a question that's so trivial and obvious that I can't beieve it hasn't been asked and answered hundreds of times. Yet, I can't find an answer.Is it possible to do a "search & replace" across all the .as class files in an application?
I'm having trouble setting my text box correctly after I do a search and replace. Should be obvious but my variable that I'm passing in is called songTitle and the text box instance name is songTitle_txt. Here is my current code.[code]
I am trying to create a search field in AS3 to search keywords in a dynamic text field of the same flash movie, where the text is loaded from an XML file.
i'm trying to search a string for a particular pattern, and replace it with elements from within the pattern... for example..here's the given string...if you want to learn how to use regexp, {url===http://somesite.com, text===click here}.
the pattern... {url===http://somesite.com, text===replacement text}
and the intended result... if you want to learn how to use regexp, click here.
of course, i'll extract the url and do something else with it... i'm just wondering what the regexp is for that pattern, and how i can extract things from the results returned.
I'm doing my final year uni project (1 week left) and having trouble with some actionscripting and xml.Basically I have all the usual AS coding sorted out for my XML data and it's working fine but what I want to do is replace the xml file with another xml file depending on what button (I have 25 different files/buttons to do) is pressed.
So button 1 will put in: xmlFile.load("button1.xml")Button 2 will replace the above scripting with: xmlFile.load("button2.xml")
Is this possible? I don't want to create 25 instances/frames of the full xml text as the xml datat is displayed on an animation and it would significantly increase the file size.
I am attempting to search multiple arrays (over 300) for a specific value which will then determine if that question is to be loaded. I have used these over the years as the quizzes simply loaded questions randomly. Now I am appempting to move this into a computer adaptive test format. I have most everything worked out except for this part which is the key to the project.
What I have is 300+ arrays like the ones below. Once a student answers a question either correctly or incorrectly a difcal value is assigned. It is that value I need to search for to determine which question to load.
For example if the student answered a question incorrectly and the difcal was calculated as -4.03 (difcal values are always in array element[0]) I would need to search the all arrays to find that value and then load that array into the question function.
Code:
var q1:Array = new Array(); q1[0] = -4.03; q1[1] = 0.57;
I'm trying to detect multiple elements in an array. My countTicks:Array contains mostly numbers and below you can see I'm using "logical AND" to try and find them.
The problem is, once I have more than 2 "logical ANDs" (&&) the trace gets called. Which it shouldn't because the array wouldn't yet hold those numbers.
PHP Code:
countTicks = function(){ for (var i = 0; i < tickCount.length; i++){ if (tickCount[i] == 1&&2&&4&&5){
how to do a search function accross multimple swf movies in a cd rom. The situation is like this: i m making an elearning project where i have around 17 to 18 chapters. Now, all the chapters are in flash and they are seperate movies. Now, if someone wants to search for something inside the cd, like say, they are searching for "entertica" then all the pages that is related to that word should show up.. like google search.
I am trying to adapt this search code to display the results one at a time.Right now it displays all the terms it finds all at once and separated by commas. How would I adapt the code so it displays one item or term at a time.
I was interested in searching through the text in a textfield and applying formatting to key words. For example, every time the word 'the' appears, apply a text format the changes it to green and 14pt.[code]...
I just did Kirupa's (excellent) XML/AS3 tutorial, and I still have one important question. How can I set up and search for an XML node with multiple entries?

How can I copy multiple frames from one file to another and paste in place? For some reason when I do this flash pastes them to the left of where they need to be even though the stages are the same size.
I am using the following codeIn actions for Frame 1:

I am new flash developer, and inherited a project which has 4 fla project files. When it runs inside a browser, it appears "window" which occupies whole browser. This project is write in Flash CS3. I have few questions:
1). When loading main swf file, 3 other swf files are also loaded. These swf files are communicating with each other through message. When debug the mail swf with CS3, I can set breakpoint and the program can stop only at limited AS files. My questions is how to debug other AS files in other swf file?
2) I used CS5. It seems that I can stop at more AS files, which does not belong to main swf file. Why?
My questions is should I use CS5, which might makes debugging easier? Is it right direction to go to debug multiple swf? (For CS5, I need to fix some code in order to make the program fully working as CS3)
3) What's best tool to use for such project since CS3 is very old. Should I use Flash builder, Flex. Amethyst?
how to replace and edit values in an xml file with c#. The question got a great answer. Now I wonder how to do this in Actionscript and if there is an as simple way as in c#.
when I use the Edit/Find and Replace function, the results portion at the bottom doesn't reveal enough information under Location. I can see "Scene 'Scene 1' -> Layer ' " and that's all. I know if I click on that line the relevant window will open but when doing a "Find All" it's useful to know more information about the Location instead of clicking on every line. That Location column of the window will not widen with the drag icon. I can move the dividers from the other columns to the left but not to the right.
