I'm using a URLLoader and URLRequest to make a call to youtube's api. The return is formatted as json and looks like the following: http://pastebin.com/WxPS9NCB. I'm trying to capture the "href" value located on line 42 in the above pastebin. But the code I have isn't working.

I am sending a request to a server, and in return I get a long block of JSON.

Is there a way to do this? I checked if the property was enumerated and it returned true, but I cant find a way to access this data.
I'm having a problem parsing a JSON file in AS3. Im trying to parse multiple JSON arrays, but don't really know how to get to the next after accessing the first one. My JSON file looks like:
{ "term": [ {
"id": 4211,
"place": "NEW YORK CITY"
},
{"id": 2675,
"place": "WASHINGTON (DC)"

I can get the data from the first array, but how would I structure my code so that I could iterate through 2 or more "term" arrays?
I have done some searching around, and from what it looks like so far, there is no native way to parse JSON in Actionscript/Flex. XML is automagiaclly parsed and life is good. Why isn't JSON parsed this same way?

Created an editable flex grid which exposes a method called getGridData() to javascript. I am using the JSON.encode() method of the [url]....library to convert the grid object's dataProvider into JSON before returning it.

However, when I sort a column in the user interface, the encode method is failing throwing the following error
Property usingCustomCompareFunction not found on mx.collections.SortField and there is no default value.
I'm working on a Flash AS2 application that needs to post JSON data to a web service.In previous projects, I've used LoadVars.send() or LoadVars.sendAndLoad() successfully to manage this:
var send_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
send_lv.data = JSON.stringify({some json object});
var response_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
response_lv.onData = function(rawdata) {

In somepage.php, I can grab that JSON data using $_POST['data'].However, on this project, the developer of the web service requires the JSON content to be the BODY of the request (i.e., not a name/value pair). Is this possible with LoadVars?

I have to work with webservices in Actionscript. I found the following code that allows me to use JSON URLs that implement only the GET method. However, it doesn't work for POST methods (doesn't even enter the "onComplete" method). How can i "POST" JSON data using Actionscript 3.0?

I was wondering if someone could explain or point me in the direction of how to implement an API that uses JSON in ActionScript 3.0. What I specifically want to know is how would I grab specific information. The following is how I do it in XML but I don't know how I would do something similar in JSON as in getting the equivalent of an XML tag.

I'm creating a registration form that contains a 'chain-select' series of ComboBoxes. In other words, select an item in the first CB and display the results from a mysql query in the next CB.
PHP returns the results in an XML String (Code: Select allecho "returnXML="$returnXML; ). All is working great up to that point. What I would like to do is loop through the Code: Select allXMLList, running Code: Select alldataP.addItem({label: newData}); for each node. The problem is that the Code: Select allXMLList.length(); function is returning a value of 1.
Code: Select allxmlList.hasComplexContent() returns 'true' which, i believe, would indicate that the XMLList is being created successfully.
Here's a bare-bones version of the code that should be sufficient for solving this problem.

Code: Select allimport flash.net.*;
import fl.data.DataProvider;
var dataP:DataProvider = new DataProvider();
var newData:String;

I think I have the recursion working properly, but I'm not able to get the originally requested item's property set to the right value.The goal here is to find the topmost parent (or "ancestor," depth = 0) of the nested item (a taxonomy based on Dictionary "parent" attributes), and assign that originally requested nested item's "ancestor" property accordingly.For instance, in
Apples
- Red
- - Empire
- - - Fresh
"Fresh"'s ancestor should be set to "Apples." While I'm attempting this on an "on-demand" and individual basis, I'm open to a solution that tags all children that are related to the same ancestor in one fell swoop or for statement, since that would probably be more efficient.
REQUEST
for (var mc:Object in taxonomy) {
var term = taxonomy[mc];[code]....
As you can see, while the recursion does find the root, the originally requested item still gets the default value.

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?

If an AS3 method returns a reference to a complex type, is there any way to make that 'readonly', like how you can have const member functions in C++? An architecture I want to use calls for a class building itself from a passed template object... and really the template object should not be modifiable. I'm currently forced to add call-back enumerators and/or lots of extra accessor methods.

i've been playing around with coldfusion for the past couple of days. I can make database queries within coldfusion components and call them in flash via flash remoting.what I can't seem to get my brain around is how do I use what is returned from a database to populate a menu (i.e.-attach movie clips based on rows from the database)?How can you do this without the structure found in XML? I know how to do that with Flash (looping through nodes, etc.)without the nodes, what the heck do you loop through? Do i need to use cold fusion to build some kind of structure first? if so does anybody know of a good tute or know how to do it and can explain the very basic concepts involved?

I'm using a Text Field component to pass the parameter (in this case a 'word') and a Text Area component is bound to the result (the 'definition').This works because the result is a String (which displays correctly when returned to the Text Area obviously). Now, I want to receive an Array as the result instead of a simple String. No surprise, the Array isn't displayed correctly in the Text Area..... it simply says "[object Object]". Can't do much with that....How can I receive this web service "result" in useful form? Can I use AS2 to set the value of an Array variable as the result from the web service (once it's finished)? If so, what's the syntax? FYI: I already know how to tell when the web service is done, just need the syntax for binding an Array variable to the result of the web service.
