Actionscript 3 :: Xml Parsing In Flex?

Jan 12, 2012

I have an xml file and im putting this xml file in an XML object

var receivedXML:XML

In some function, I have:

var xmlList:XMLList = new XMLList();
xmlList = receivedXML.some.attributes.here;
object.functionDoStuff = xmlList;

The function functionDoStuff takes xmlList as its argument:

function functionDoStuff(xmlList:XMLList) {}

When does receivedXML get parsed, is it when we assign it to xmlList, or is it when it gets used in the next instruction by the function functionDoStuff?

Xml :: Flex Tag Attribute Value / Property Parsing?

Sep 24, 2010

have an RSS feed, within Flex I have connected to the feed via HTTPService, the XML structure is as follows (not exact, but for the purpose of the question). I am able to walk down the xml and access the data within the title and link nodes with success but when I get the the description node and try to access the img and src attributes within it, I haven't had any success. Reading about parsing with e4x the example I get is:

var xList:XMLList = xData.channel.item.description.(attribute("src"));
or
var xList:XMLList = xData.channel.item.description.(@src);

ActionScript 3.0 :: Parsing XML To Flash?

Sep 26, 2008

This is my first day to try and use XML to display dynamic text in Flash. My skillset is weak with AS3 and Flash, but I found some tutorials online and I have managed to successfully display the first record in mytest.swf. However I also seem to have all records displaying in each dynamic text box as well. My loop isn't stopping after each record. It's reading everything. And dumping the results into each text field.

I need to only display each record individually. Once I accomplish that, I will need to include some form of navigation. Lets say buttons that perform a NEXT, PREVIOUS, LAST, FIRST type function. Then lastly, I'll need to include some type of search navigation option by item number. I assume that I'd have to have a second screen that links to my primary results screen with an input form for the item number.

ActionScript 1/2 :: Parsing The XML Namespace?

Sep 28, 2009

I am attempting to parse some weather information from the Yahoo weather RSS feed.This is a typical XML node;

<description>Yahoo! Weather for Palm Springs, CA</description>
�
I used the typical XML parsing code in as2;

var text1 = this.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
txt1.text = text1;
�
I was doing pretty good until I reached a node that was formatted thus;

<yweather:forecast day="Mon" date="28 Sep 2009" low="74" high="103" text="Sunny" code="32" />

This text traced a value of undefined.I have tried to research this and so far all I have been able to find out, is that this is a XML namespace and is very easily handled in as3. Unfortunately I have to use as2.How do I parse out this information into a dyamic text fields?

ActionScript 3.0 :: CS4 - Parsing Big XML File?

May 20, 2009

I have a 6mb XML file, resetting my script timout in CS4 doesn't help. (it does have some unnecesarry HTML in it I could probably do away with, but that would be the wrong direction I think)I can't even trace it.I am loading it into an :XML object and trying to work with it, but all to no avail.

Here is my Class:

Code:
/**
User class
author: Manaburn

[code]...

The for each loop wont iterate for some reason, but the for loop will, then again, it always crashes me with:

Code:
Error: Error #1502: A script has executed for longer than the default timeout period of 15 seconds.

(which as I stated above I reset, but as this is a .as file, I don't think it allows that.)

ActionScript 3.0 :: Parsing XML With Html Using E4X?

ActionScript 3.0 :: XMLList Tag Removal - Parsing

Dec 23, 2009

I'm pulling some events out of a MySQL db, parsing to an XML file, and having flash pull that in. All works fine, but I'm encountering an XML tag, and I'm not 100% sure why. I searched but the keywords are so vague I didn't find anything of value.

[Code]....

So with one event, it works fine. With more than one, I get in the info.eventNameTxt textfield something like <name>Christmas Afterbash</name>. how to circumvent this? I haven't quite been able to wrap my head 100% around the E4X stuff.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Parsing Together Movieclip Names?

Feb 19, 2010

In AS2 you could parse together movieclip names so that you could do things like this - Let's say you have a movieclip (clip1) inside a clip (clip2). You could do:

name1 ="clip" + 1;
name2 = "clip"+ 2;

and then when referencing the lower clip you could do: _root[name2][name1]._alpha = 50;

That doesn't seem to work in AS3, even if do something like
clip2[name1].alpha=.25;

I'm probably referencing the objects wrong, but can anybody shed any light on this? I'm having trouble parsing together paths and object names and it's driving me nuts.
