View 3 RepliesI frequent a few other forms on various web related stuff, but just started to really get into flash. I have a calendar I've been working on, I get it to auto create the days and months based off the system date. Now what I'd like to do is have my AS Highlight the current day so it stands out...
I've been looking over the code, trying to figure out how to get it, but I keep getting stuck. I know Flash has a built in "Date" and I've been trying if statements to get it to == my AS Datestamp, but I have to be doing it wrong.
Ive pieced this together from a few different calendars after seeing the code, the AS is split into 4 KeyFrames. The code below is what gets the day, and places the start cord. of the MC:

I would like to display the current date in the bottom part of the calendar on a DateChooser control. Has anyone extended the DateChooser control to do this?
Something like the attached image...
I managed to pull off some codes, but still, I have the slightest idea of how to add the label below the datechooser control.
package

import mx.controls.DateChooser;
import mx.controls.Label;

I had an assessment i need to finish as my test for flash developer vacancy...i need to create a function that convert date Gregorian calendar to Hijri calendar in flashis that possible?I've search through google, but still doesnt find anything useful yet.
View 3 RepliesI have to set up an list of events in sort of a calendar format. I'm trying to figure out how I should bring in the data.The data will be stored in a mySQL database. Should I just bring it straight into flash with PHP, or should I use PHP to convert it to XML and then bring it to flash?
View 1 RepliesI would like to know if there is a way to create a calendar page on my site that will display the free Google Calendar? I have embedded code in a Myspace site before and it worked well, but have no experience with the IFrame code that Google Calendar uses. fyi- I just bought Flash a month ago and have been editing a template that I purchased to be my new website.
View 1 RepliesI've been trying to figure out a code for the last week or so and I have had no luck . I'm trying to make an event.listerner in actionscript 3.0 that detects for a "S" key and then opens a new url with a separate swf. file upon the pressing of the "S".
View 4 RepliesSay for instance you have a weekly competition and the next draw for the competition is on the 29 January 2010, how would I create a weekly updater so that once the 29th January arrives the following friday "date" is displayed.
View 1 RepliesI'm working on a lil' animated weekly meal plan that'll be played in my school's cafeteria. It gets the meal info from an external text file that the staff update every weekend for the coming week.Preface: I know my way around Flash relatively well, but don't have any formal training or much experience with Action Script.
What I would like to do is to automatically highlight the meals for the current day via Action Script. It drives me crazy that I know this is possible, most likely not overly complex, and that I've got all the basic elements assembled already.The problem is that I don't know the Syntax that would allow me to put it all together and get it working.I can create an array for the days of the week and trace the result, like so:
ActionScript Code:
var days:Array = ["0", "1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6"];
var my_date:Date = new Date();
trace(days[my_date.day]);
Now I'd like to take the result, number representing the day of the week, and see if that is the current day. If so, I'd like this result to cause the alpha of my background MC to change (I'm doing this via TweenMax):
ActionScript Code:
if day == 0 //Day is Sunday
TweenMax.to(bg0, 2, {alpha:0.9}); // change the alpha of "bg0" to 0.9
else

And lastly, since the computer running the swf is being turned off every night and back on every morning I don't really need this run at a certain interval (i.e. every 24 hours), correct?
I'm trying to figure out the code for an AS3 Calendar, does anyone here know how to get the day of the week the month starts on? I've seen examples on php but not in as3!

I have a Flash header on my site, and I'd like to be able to (preferably via XML) load an external SWF on top of it, and for a paticular amount of days.In other words, I have my main Flash header (eg. HEADER.SWF), and I'd like to load an external SWF (eg. EXTRA.SWF) on top, that has a very basic animated circle with some text on it. And one time I might like it to be there for 2 days, and other times I'd like it to stay there for a whole week.
View 1 RepliesI making a flash contact form for reservations. I dragged the DateField component onto the stage, gave it an instance name of rDate_txt and it works great in picking a date and sending to my php emailer. Its formatted like 10 Apr 2008.Now, Im trying to calculate the day of the week based on the date. I can calculate todays date with...
Code:
myDate = new Date();
daytext = myDate.getDay();
switch (daytext)
{
[code]....
get the date chosen from the DateField component?Once I get the day of the week, I need to make a different ComboBox visible if its a Friday or Saturday. So I would think I need to set up an onchange listener?
I was looking for a way to shuffle a deck of cards last week and I was provided with some code to do so. I decided a straight shuffle would work better with my project than randomizing coordinates (as I was doing). I'm trying to implement the code, and I think I'm pretty close, but I'm running into a few snags. I'm using Shuffle.as as my document class, and another external class called Card.as to control the flipping and drag action of my cards. At the moment, I'm getting this message when I try to run the swf: 1084: Syntax error: expecting leftbrace before Deck. I think this is indicative of an error somewhere else in my code, but I'm not sure where. Do you see anything upon first glance?

For example, today is Tuesday, Feb 02. Well the equivalent "Tuesday" from last year was on Feb 03. How can I find this out programmatically?
View 2 RepliesI could not find a method in Flex Date object to get the week of year (1 to 52)
What is the best way to find this? Is there any useful library for flex for such date operations like JodaTime in Java.
I'm sure there's a simple method or function out there to do this (at least I'm hoping there is). I want to return the name of a day of the week for a specific date using ActionScript.
For example, if I provide "2/2/2011" as a parameter, it should return "Wednesday". What's the best way to make this happen?
While both of them will work, I'm curious to know if anyone can think of a reason why one would be preferred over the other.
To have displayed recurring events display for a week before they occur example: the church has a "holy communion service" on the 1st & 3rd Sunday of the month at 10:10am then a "holy communion service" on the 2nd & 4th Sunday at 8:30am
on a month with a 5th Sunday "holy communion service" is at both 8:30am & 10:10am
If I'm given a month and a year, how can I calculate what day of the week that month started on?
My end goal is to write a method that takes a month and a year and returns an array of dates for each Sunday in that month (ex: 7,14,21,28).
I have made a counter but i want it to reset 3 times a week at specific days of th week. I want it to reset first every Tuesday at 9:45,Every Thersday at 18:00 and every Saturday at 12:00
View 3 RepliesHow long would it take for a raw beginner to learn Action Script 3 coding so as to have a basic understanding and an ability to code Flash.Also to be able to take existing code and adapt it to suit ones own flash project ?Are there any training videos on such or good books to read ?What is the best way of learning AS3 ?Is it in fact best to forget AS3 and get tuition in programming or some other discipline then take a look at AS3 and what timescale would be suitable to achieve this so as to meet the goal stated above
View 6 RepliesI'm using a CartesianChart with a DateTimeAxis to display weekly data in a Flex application.When I set dataUnits="weeks" and labelUnits="weeks" on the DateTimeAxis, it automatically places each major tick on a Sunday. However, I would like to provide users with the option of beginning the week on a Sunday or a Monday. How can I ask the DateTimeAxis to instead place the major ticks on a Monday (or some other day of week)?For example, if the user is looking at total sum of something over the week, and requests that weeks start on a Sunday, the Series data would look like:
x: Date(July 11, 2010) y: 25
x: Date(July 18, 2010) y: 30
x: Date(July 25, 2010) y: 32
