XML :: Displaying Random Node In Flash?
Jan 18, 2011
All I want is to display a random node from an xml file in Flash. I can display one node fine, but if try to display 2 or more, Flash sticks the XML tags back on the items - change the number following questions in the urlLoader_complete function to see what I mean.
Here's my AS3:
var questions:XML;
var urlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("breakfast.xml");
var urlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
urlLoader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.TEXT;

I've got the actionscript to store an array of facts then display a random fact. the only thing is you need to refresh the swf file before another random fact is displayed but I'm not sure how to incorporate that into my actionscript?
var randomFacts:Array = ["fact1","fact2","fact3","fact4","fact5","fact6 "];
var fact:String = randomFacts[int(Math.random() * randomFacts.length)];
trace(fact);

I have an XML slideshow displaying random images.
It works but sometimes duplicates the same images or displys the same image way more than the others...
Is there an action I can call so ALL my images play once in random order, before they get to be displayed for a 2nd time?[code]...

The following program gives me the results in the output panel because I used trace. The problem is that I want these numbers displayed when I click on a button. The numbers should not duplicate when the button is clicked, for example not "3, 3, 2" but "3, 2, 5". Here is the program that randomly selects numbers (which by the way is not mine): (I'll happily donate 15$ to the animal charity of your choice for whoever can give me a hand with this problem
var mynumbers:Array = ["1","2","3","4","5","6"];
var mystuff:Array = [];
var randomCount:Number = 3;

I'm tring to import a text file and have a dynamic text field display a random line from that file (picture a quote-of-the-day type scenario). I've been able to import the file, but I have yet to find a way of displaying a random line from the file.

I want to load an XML file and display at random a different line when a button is pressed. I swear I've seen dozens of different ways to do this online already and I've tried to copy them for my purpose
Here is my XML file titled "file"
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xml>
<quiz>
[Code]...
Of course, once I get this working I'll need to output the text in a text box and assign a button press to load a new line.

I am having a really frustrating problem with creating 2 random numbers. When I run the program, everything works fine, until I hit my object and go to the screen "math". Once there, all it shows is one number in one of the 2 boxes. Below is the code used to generate the numbers. I used the "trace" command to see if it was actually generating the numbers, and it is. The problem seems to be with pushing that number into the variable and displaying it to the user.

I have an AdvancedDataGrid tree with a ArrayCollection as its dataprovider. Now, for instance, i drag a leaf from one node to another node. To catch the event I'm adding a Listener to dragComplete.
[Code]...
My Problem: I want to know the new node where the leaf was dropped. Actually i would have expected that in the event there is a property like dropParent. This is not the case.

I thought this was going to be easy! I would like to search an XML file for a particular data set i.e. set of nodes depending on a passed variable. However, storing a subset of my XML file via Code:var gallery = this.firstChild; and then searching 'gallery' as you would an array-using a for()-doesn't work since this.firstChild isn't returning an array
Code:
<gallery>
<collection title="Christmas 2004">

I want a movieclip consisting of a dynamic text box that, from the time it's loaded onto the stage, loads a randomly selected text string from an array, and continues to loop until the clip is removed from the stage. I also want the text strings to appear in the text box for random intervals between 500 and 3000 milliseconds.
While I've found tutorials here and elsewhere on loading one element from an array, usually triggered by a button, I don't know how to combine/alter it with the other elements.So I want this movieclip on the stage randomly flashing phrases from an array, some for a barely perceptible time, and others for a readable time.

how to add a xml node value to text in flash action script2.0 ??

I would like to be able to put a hyperlink with anchor tags in an XML node so all the characters in the node are passed to a dynamic text box in Flash where HTML formatting is preserved.
something like this:
<node><a href="<A href="http://www.something.com">click here</a>">www.something.com">click here</a></node>
How do I go about this? - I'm afraid an <a> and </a> tag will be treated like a new child called "a" within the current node.

I have this actionscript so far:
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xmlData:XML = new XML();
xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, LoadXML);
[Code]...
This loads the xml, assigns it to bookInput and traces it, but when I try and trace bookInput.project, or bookInput.button, or anything besides bookInput, no data is returned,
XML;
<button label="test1">
<project path="http://www.google.com">
</project>

checking an XML file for a specific node.
Example:
<vid
flv="videoName"
thumb="thumbnail.jpg"
title="Video Title"
[code]....
The first vid node contains a path to a logo graphic, I then need to check in my ActionScript if there is a logo there or not, and to do something if there is(display the logo) I can trace out the logo path so I thought I could run a simple if/else to check if there is anything in that node and if so to do something:
private function thumbOver(e:MouseEvent = null):void
{
trace("
");
[code]....
Now I've tried everything, but it will always trace out "Does have a logo" no matter what I do. I tried:
if (tabData[tabID].video[e.target.id].@logo == "")
if (tabData[tabID].video[e.target.id].@logo == null)
However I get the same results?

How do I get the root node of an XML object in Actionscript?
One would think that I could say this:
var Node:XMLNode = XMLVar as XMLNode;
But although XMLVar is of type XML, Node will = null.

I've succesfully loaded and parsed this XML file, using XMLParser and AS2:
<Resources>
<item author="Julian" date="28/12/2010" time="01:18" id="876" like="8" dislike="5">
<Text>Sample paragraph</Text>
</item>
[code].....
Now, what I need, is to increase and store the "like" and "dislike" values with the click of a button, but I don't know how to modify and store them in the existing nodes (eg., without adding new ones).Do I need to use PHP, or can AS2 handle it by itself?

doing a project where the deviceorientation-data from smartphones get transfered to a socketserver, and from there to a flash-application.Now creating a http-server with nodejs wasn't too hard, and connecting from a smartphone via browser and transfering the data with socket.io worked fine.The problem comes with flash, i couldn't manage to connect my flash application to the http-server running socket.io. I figured out when i run a node tcp-server connecting from flash is no problem, but i have no more session management and i can't connect from the browser anymore.

I'm trying to generate a simple node within some xml that i'm sending out of flash like this
<myNode>myvariablevalue</myNode>
i was using this:
Code:
tx = xmlOut.createTextNode(myVariable);
but this is causing ', ", etc. within my strings to be converted to character references...How can i set node contents otherwise?
