Need regular expression that will verify if all the letters in the word "cat" were also in the word "coating" in the proper sequence? So for the word "coating", the RegEx will test true for "cat" but false for "act".

For a rather complex search function I need to get the first letter of each word entered into an input field. At first glance this may not seem like a big problem if every word is neatly seperated by a space.
Although people can enter whatever they want into the field I only want to work with the words that start with a-z or A-Z.
I'm having a bit of trouble figuring out how I can determine if a character in the string falls into this selection. One of the possibilities is to use charCodeAt(), but that's rather rough. I can walk through the string using indexOf() but I may have trouble finding the next word if characters other than a space come into play.

View 4 RepliesI am making a game where random letters and words are generated into movieclips, thats the background. I built it using arial as my font, however I then decided to go with a fixed width font to make sizing the movieclips to the words much more straightforward. Yesterday this worked fine, the font i am using (Liberation Mono) is installed on my computer, all the textboxes which use this font have the character embedding on them, and I have not changed any of the movieclips, only non-relevant code. So I run it up again today and none of the words appear. Thinking it might be some code changes I made I go thourhg tracing out everything, only to find the wrds are being generated, and written to the textbox absolutely fine. I switch back to Arial just as a check and bang it works again.
View 1 RepliesI need to convert a many paged document into numbers.
logicly a=1, b=2, ..z=26 & 1=1, 2=2, etc.. the numbers of the letters need to be seperated by comma's
and the spaces between words must be replaced by dashes
so for example: "i am crazy for doing this" should look like this:
"9-1,13-3,18,1,26,25-6,15,18-4,15,9,14,7-20,8,9,19"
does anyone know of a script that will take up to 500 words per conversion, or does anyone know a application that will be able to do this? unlimited amount of words would even be better.
I'm working on a flash chat and I'm having problems with Regular Expression.
In Javascript this runs ok:

My regex pattern works for but it ignores any letters in brackets.
Basically what i have is three buttons which can be pressed in a maximum of 7 different combinations. Each of these buttons has a movieclip underneath that advances to the next frame when the button is pressed. Each clip has two frames with actions, frame 1 has:
stop();
var option1:Boolean = false;
and then frame 2 has:
stop();
var option1:Boolean = true;
So when you press a button you have true, and false when the button is pushed again.
i already have a constant loop between frames 2 and 4. At frame 4 i think i need to have some code that detects which state the 3 boolean statements are in and then load a movie depending on which statements are true and which are false.
I never get the hang of these.'
Code:
_global.web_link_activate = (wArray[this.id]);
if (_global.web_link_active == "no"){
_root.load_area.zoomer.enabled = false;
_root.load_area.zoomer._alpha = 20;
[Code] .....
That should work but it does not. it always says "yes" wArray is a drawn from an xml document.
XML is

weblink="yes"
Can I set vars like true and false in xml kinda like weblink=false??
I have this code on a movie clip:
Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
this.gotoAndStop ()
if (Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)) {
this.gotoAndPlay ()

But the problem is, when I let go of the arrow key, the movie keeps on playing. How could I make this work, so that the movie clip would go to the first frame when you let go of the arrow key?
Because this code didn't work:
Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
this.gotoAndStop ()
if (Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)) {

I am having a problem with stage event listeners in Explorer 7 and up.I place an object, say a circle, on the stage in layer 1. I make it a symbol and give it an instant name of myBall_mc.I add a blank keyframe at frame 25 and create a motion tween moving the circle across the stage.I add a new layer, name it actions and place the following code in the first frame.
stop();
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
function onClick():void[code].....
Works perfectly when testing. Works perfectly when exported to a .swf in Firefox. Doesn't work at all in Explorer 7 and up.If I add a button to the stage and change the event listener to listen for a mouse click on the button, it works perfectly in all browsers.
Now here's the weird part. If I leave the script exactly like I have it above and place a box, the entire size of the stage, over the stage and set its alpha to zero. It works perfectly in all browsers. This is without even changing the event listener from stage to whatever I called the stage covering object.It registers as a stage level mouse click!
I've tried to add imports but this didn't change anything. I tried to add the parameters ,true and ,false to the stage event listener after the function name. Everthting I've tried comes up short. The only thing that works for Explorer browsers is covering the stage with an object.
How do you find a odd or even number using bytes instead of modulus op?
View 8 RepliesHow do you use config constants with values other than true or false? The only documentation examples I've found uses the syntax:
ActionScript Code:
CONFIG::CONSTANT_NAME {
//do stuff
}
But what if the constant is set to a value like "hello"? How can I set a block of code to only compile if the constant is set to "hello" but not "goodbye"? I tried:
ActionScript Code:
CONFIG::CONSTANT_NAME == "hello" {
}
Are you aware how to set a variable to true or false in AS3;
I tried
Code:
var flip:void = true;

View 6 RepliesSo I want to create a method that return a true or a false. The thing is I need to be able to change the true/false ratio in percentage as a parameter
So it'll go like this:
public function trueFalseRandomizer(percentOfTrue):Boolean
{
return(result)
}
So if (100) is passed in argument it will return a true for sure and a (0) would always return a false... (25) 1 on 4 chances to get a true... etc etc etc
Maybe I could have figured it out myself but I get confused with the math.anything As I don't feel I get good randomizer when I try to create one.
In Flash MX I have a movie clip that is 32 frames long and loops. Now, what I want to happen is: when you press a button in the file, the movie clip will stop at frame 22. I don't want it to "goto and stop", instead, I want it to continue playing through until it hits 22.
i.e. if you hit the button at frame 5 it will continue playing until 22. or if you hit it at 27 it plays through the cycle, but stops at 22 (if possible, it would be great if I could get it to reverse if it was past 22, but i don't want to be greedy).
Now, one way I thought of doing this was to have an "on open 'stop at 22' = false " and "on press button 'stop at 22' = true.
How do you get a True/False statement to be recognized inside a movie clip with a button on the main timeline as the control. I want my movie clip to stop at the last frame if the movie clip reaches the last frame. Otherwise gotoAndStop at the first frame of the clip. I was using
on (press) {
_root.m1.gotoAndPlay(2);
_root.m2.gotoAndPlay(1);

View 4 Replies2 objects come onto the stage from the right. The user is directed to choose the bigger objects. If he selects the correct one it lights up green and then slides off. If he selects the wrong one it lights up red on and off and then the user selects the correct one, which lights up green and they slide off as the next objects slide on.I created all of the objects in 3Ds Max and I figured I would load them via XML and assign a true and false the the respective one. But should I go about it this way? And if so, I have the concept of what to do as I mentioned above but I am not sure where to begin to execute it... Also, for more info, I am doing this all with programming and not putting actual objects in flash because this is a part of a much bigger structure.So, my question is: Should I go about it as I mentioned above and if so do you know how - you could even tell me what to google to find the info I need in order to do it.

How do you make the childAllowsParent property of an SwfLoader go from false to true, that is, how as a parent application do you set up security to make the child app's events and other properties accessible to you. To read the flex docs on this, one would think nothing could be simpler:
"This property [childAllowsParent] is set to true if the child object has called the allowDomain() method to grant permission to the parent domain or if a URL policy is loaded at the child domain that grants permission to the parent domain. If child and parent are in the same domain, this property is set to true . [emphasis added]" So, I'm in a development environment and want to load an swf from my own system via an SWFLoader and then be able to monitor its events within the parent app.
