this is part of an XML file I retrieve using AS3 E4X:
<links>
<link>
<label>Versions</label>
<href>http://mylink1</href>
[Code].....
I want to retrieve the values of labels, so I write:
document.links.link.label.text();
This returns VersionsConfigurations. I need this as Array ([Versions, Configurations]) but I would like not to use a loop. Is there any other way?
I have an array (named arrayFull), and I want my dynamic text box (named messageText) to display one random element from the array, changing once per second.The code I have makes it display all elements of the array at once in random order, changing once per second.How do I make it display just one element from the array at any given time?This is the code:
var arrayFull:Array = new Array(1,2,3,4,5);
import flash.utils.Timer;
import flash.events.TimerEvent;

I think that arrays are probably one of the more powerful tools available in flash,
mc with instance name but0
inside mc is a text box var name label , code is
[AS]label = _name;[/AS]
mc on main timeline code in frame 1 is:
subjects = new Array("page1","page2","page4","page4","page5")
butHeight = but0._height+5;
butNumber = subjects.length[code]....
What this code does is produce 5 buttons appearing one after the other, like a cascade effect, so far so good, I then want to insert the array elements into text box label, but all I get is subject, subject1, subject2 and so on.So, what do I need to do so that my buttons are called page1, page2 and so on.
I'm trying to make an array and list it's elements in a text box.

Actually, I'm HTML-coder, so I've recently confronted by difficulties with Flash. Its making the text banner. Flash needs to get variables from the following 'vars.htm' file:
myVar01=the_first_textDDDsecond_textDDDand_surely_ the_third_text&myVar02=DDD&myVar03=3
Where 'myVar01' contains the text, 'myVar02' is the text delimiter's look and 'myVar03' is the showing delay of texts. In truth, I've never seen the ActionScript before.
So, what I've done regarding that all:
ActionScript Code:
var data_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars ();
data_lv.load("vars.htm");
data_lv.onLoad = function() {
[Code] .....
The problem is, the 'trace' shows me correct array looping but in Flash I see there's only one passage through the 'texts' array. But I need the infinite looping in Flash movie, instead of one.
does anyone know how to shift all the array elements by one or more without deleting the array itself?

View 15 RepliesIf I am a subclass of an Array, how do I access an element?
class ArrayOfFoo extends Array
{
public function getFooAt(anIndex : int) : Foo
{
return this[anIndex] as Foo; // <---- looks for an object attribute (named "0", for example)
}
}
I could wrap an array instead of subclassing it, however lacking a universal IArray interface, that is less than useful for standard and custom functions expecting an Array.
What's the difference between looping through an array or using array.every() to assign a callback to each array element?

View 2 RepliesI´m trying to order elements of an array. When the dates come from dynamics text it´s no problem, bad when come from input text the dates are treated like strings and it´s impossible to order correctly, because 15 is considered less than 3. In both cases I can operate correctly whit this dates like numbers.How is possible to order this dates from input text, like numbers?

I'm writing an application in Flex / ActionScript and have a number of class member variables of type Array storing data. My question is: what's the "best" way to clear out an Array object? I noticed the ArrayCollection class has a function removeAll() which does this, but the basic Array class does not. Some possibilities I've considered are:
Iterating through the array, calling pop or shift on each element
Setting the array length to 0
Setting the member variable to a "new Array()" or "[]"
var count:uint = 0;
var textInputs:Array /* of TextInputs */ = [];
for(var i:String in columnsData){
[Code]....
here how can i access the first, second of Array of textinputs in the form of string or any thing to further proceed

I have one array with many elements inside.
ActionScript Code:
var all_id:Array = new Array ["56","42","35","64"];
I also have one cd id, which is dynamically created.Im trying to create a function, which checks if the cd id matches any of the IDs of the array.
ActionScript Code:
for(i=0; i<all_id.length;i++){
if(all_id[i] == id){
trace("ID MATCH");
[code]....
My problem is that - because I'm looping through the elements, I get several traces.Is there a way to get a result if any element matches?

I can set them up and even partially delete items (there value is replaced with "undefined") in the array but not thier index. What i want to accomplish is to have a number of words in array that are randomly chosen one at a time and only one time each on the press of a btn.
So if the array contains the words; the, go, see, a
The first press of the button might choose the word "the". Which would remove it from the list and the next press of the button would randomly choose one of the remaining words; go, see, a.
I have an array myArray:Array = [no1_mc, no2_mc,no5_mc];I have a variable imageNumber:Number which gets values from 1 - 5 or 5 - 1 depending if next_mc or prev_mc is clicked.Now, next_mc will load a next image and prev_mc will load prev image.What i want is that depending on the value of the variable imageNumber i want to toggle the alpha of the movieClips inside the array myArray.So if imageNumber = 3, then no3_mc.alpha = 1 while the remaining mc's alpha = 0.5.
