ActionScript 2.0 :: Start Learning To Use XML?
Jul 26, 2006I've been Actionscripting for quite a while now, and a lot of the sources I see and books I read talk about something called XML. I understand that its a formatting language used to communicated with servers, and the syntax looks like html.
I have a few books on AS, but I don't really get the XML stuff. Is the idea that I use an XML segment of code in my Flash to import in a document to flash at runtime? Or is it that I can load variables from an external document? I don't have my own server but I do have the ability to upload files to servers, so I could probably make a file that can communicate with an SWF, and I'm told XML is the way...
So does anyone know a good way to learn about XML, and what is actually is and can do?
Where Should A Programmer Start Learning Flash
Apr 12, 2010What would be a good resource for an experienced programmer to learn Flash?Consider a very seasoned programmer that doesn't require any teaching of programming concepts and that already programmed Javascript. Someone who never created a Flash file, or even know what Flex is. Someone who could probably learn ActionScript in a day but still needs to learn how to apply it.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Learning About Scope And Packages
Jul 15, 2009I have made a script, and now has come the point when I need to use removechild. Whenever I try this I get an error. After looking at the problem, I think I need to learn more about scope and packages. I think if I put everything in the correct scope, I will be able to use the removechild command. I tried to make all my vars public, so that removechild would work, however I got an error that anything public needs to be in a package. I tried to add the package part to my script, but got the error that packages cant be nested. I tried some other things and still no luck, just more errors.
So, if anyone could point me to a tutorial, or recommend a book or something, that will help teach me about scope and packages, Or if you are feeling patient and generous, and you think you could explain this problem to a 5 year old, please explain it to me the way you would to said 5 year old. If you maybe think you can help me out on the script, it can be found here: [URL]

View 2 RepliesProfessional :: Button In Learning Interaction
Apr 13, 2011I have created a Flash file with 4 "Fill in the Blank" questions (from the Learning Interactions continued within Flash CS3) at the end. I'm then using the swf file in two different ways. One way simply loads the swf file onto a 'stand-alone' page on my website and it works perfectly.The other way I want to use it is integrated into a more complicated website where I have a Flash File into which various swf files are loaded when needed. In this version the "Control Button" doesn't change to "Check Answer" and "Reset" as it should and the whole question doesn't work. The working version is at url..Select "4 For You to Try" to go directly to Quiz Questions.The non-working version is at url...Go to "Extras" in Menu and select Naming Alkane Isomers, then "4 For You to Try" again.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Next Step In Learning OOP AS2 Programming?
Sep 21, 2009I have been learning about classes and oop programming with AS2. I think I have a very good idea of how it all works, but I'm lacking in one final area before I can truly say I'm coding in OOP.Currently, I use a contentmanager class to route all button commands through. This class handles the removal and preperation of the stage for content change, and then seperate classes handle the actual loading and placement of the new content.So in a way, its not really OOP, just very well organized code.
The next step is Event Management in AS2. I know it can be done, I read through a few tutorials, but get confused by it all.What I'm looking for now is two things.. a very good Event Management tutorial or article if anyone knows of any..as well as a sample site that can be downloaded or viewed which has been written using OOP. I want this sample site, to re-evaluate how my current way of programming holds up compared to more proffessional examples...
(Perhaps even we can turn this into a hot thread with examples of code and structures to help other developers trying to gain a grip on OOP..?)

May 11, 2011I am just starting to get comfortable using as3 to create e-learning applications. I have this xml file that has a list of swf files that gets called(loaded) into a holder_mc when the user clicks on the forward btn or the back btn. Pretty simple...and it is working nicely at the moment.
I also have another loaded swf that has a menu which contains linkages to 8 chapters. Basically, when the user clicks on a link in the menu it takes them to a specific location in the course.
Here is the issue: example: let's say the user is on page 4, in the course, and decides to click on the menu and jump to page 28. After jumping to page 28, if the user clicks the forward button, the application takes them to page 5, instead of page 29. So, how do i write a script, and/or change the xml file so that the "forward" btn takes the user to page 29, instead of page 5? I think some kind of reset function needs to happen either in the as3 script or the xml file, but i'm not sure how to do that.
Here is the xml file sample:(this is a short sample of the xml file)
<course>
<page>
<file>welcome.swf</file>

View 4 RepliesSql :: Learning Ruby To Use Serverside To Manage An Existing Database?
Mar 28, 2012I am very much a beginner to rails and I have a specific need for it. I wish to connect it to a flex app, and also use it to call a database.
For example when the following web page is visited: ?User=bob&id=4&lic=234 Take 'bob' and 4 and add them to an existing database table if the license number is valid and not already used. I don't want to use the standard database stuff, I will need to write my own SQL queries as well as have logic for checking other stuff to do with registering users etc. It is already done with Coldfusion but I am having issues with it, and would like to have it work with Ruby instead.
But to start with, I just want the ability to call a web page (on localhost:3000) get the string after the URL "?User=bob&id=4&lic=234" in this case and output "User:bob id:4" to the screen. I want to learn what the code is doing rather than have the least lines of code solution. I would rather use as little of the rails framework to do this as this will help me learn the language. I won't be making the standard website so learning the rails framework won't be so useful to me.
