View 1 RepliesI'm trying to parse some simple XML and use it to render some controls, its all going so well. I'm having some trouble with E4X and counting the number of nested nodes within a certain child...code is as follows....
Code:
<questions>
<question>
<label>History of Smoking</label>
<value>3</value>
[Code]....
The Alert keeps coming up as 1. I read in the documentation that this will happen with XML objects but it is working when I create the XMLList and counts the number of questions I have. The code is working except it is only rendering 1 RadioButton, very sad. I suppose I could put the number of options within the <options> tag but I'd rather do it dynamically to avoid errors.
I develop a piece of code that brings me to an xml, all Nodes i use this code:
for(var i=0; i< menu_xml.childNodes.length; i++){
corrent_node = menu_xml.childNodes[i].length;corrent_item.action = corrent_node.attributes.action;corrent_item.variables = corrent_node.attributes.variables;corrent_item.name.text = corrent_node.attributes.name;
[code]....
What I need is for each of the nodes highlighted in green to return the child Nodes. Example: when I move the mouse over the menu Indoor lighting, the results should be: Indoorlighting | LED 10W> 3W LED> LED 6W
I'm struggling with. As the title suggests I'm trying to count certain nodes in an XML form using E4X. I could just assign a number and make my life a lot easier I guess but now I've started with this idea I'm adamant that I should get it to work. I'm working purely in the actions panel and just trying to trace the 'count' at the moment.[code]...
View 1 Replies i'm trying to make an xml menu but i'm stuck on this spot and just can't get around it.i have this xml file:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu>[code]..........
And , as u can probably see, it's a menu with 3 buttons, and the middle one is supposed to have a submenu.I am looping through the menu items and it displays everything alright:
ActionScript Code:
var xml:XML = new XML();
var total:Number;[code]..........
What i can't figure out is the piece of code needed to count the nodes inside the <item> tag.
I need to count how many instances there is of a spesific attribute in my xml-list.
Here is my xml-file where I need to count how many children where the attribute "hjorne" is "1":
Code:
......
<element>
<fortoyning hjorne="1" />
<fortoyning hjorne="1" />

But I only need the number 3 as the value of "ant_h1". How do I do that or is it an another way to achieve this?
I have this loop code that counts up the XML nodes and creates menu items for each node, that was taken from a tutorial. How can I have it so after 10 nodes it creates a new column setting them side by side? Moving them say 100px on the x axis? Here is the 1st part of the code done by a friend:

I'm trying to populate a datagrid via an external xml file. i'v gotten a good ways into it but have hit a stumbling block that i can't get past when it comes to using the child nodes to populate the datagrid.

How can I create a for loop so I can use different values of the same node? So I want to count the "<Text>" nodes of the XML and use their different values on different dynamic textfields. Note that I have mutliple Movieclips on the stage with the same amount of textfields and I would like to include them in the loop, so I named them mc1 mc2 etc.

Have xml that looks something like the following:
<level1>ARTWORKS
<level2>ARCHIVE
<level3>COLOR</level3>
</level2>
</level1>
I am trying to retrive the ARCHIVE String, but can't seem to do that, without also getting the <level3>COLOR</level3> node. I am doing this like this: _
xmlData.navigation.level1.level2[0], which returns this:
ARCHIVE
<level3>COLOR</level3>
How do I get it to where it only returns the ARCHIVE?
I tried the last 3 hours to convert child nodes to variables.
I followed the tutorial on [URL]
I use the following (working) code:
Code:
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xmlData:XML = new XML();
xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, LoadXML);
[Code].....
Now I try to assign variables to each child (Country, Search, Link, etc). But I don't seem to succeed with that.
I tried different approaches like:
var test = languageList.Countryvar test = e.item.CountryIn my xml file I have 8 languages.
I use the attached code to load the attached xml file, but it will only load the first 20 nodes. I have moved the 20th to the 21st and the 21st up to the 20th and it will still load the first 20, so it isn't a formatting problem.
View 14 Repliesthis is supposed to return an XMLList of Groups anywhere in the xml. This works fine if I have more than one , but fails if there is only one .Am I wrong in my assumption that it should return one? I trace xml..Group.length() and it is 0, but the Group is definately in the xml.Any ideas on how you can get one or more Group nodes from my xml?
View 2 RepliesI have child node that has no information ... it would be a URL, so the error message I get is Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL Not Found.. Code: _currURL = path.article.(@ID == _marker).storyURL; I thought I might check to see if _currURL == null, but that does nothing.

View 1 RepliesHere is an example of a custom component. It is just a box with a title label and a close image (X):
[Code]...
When using the component in an MXML document, I would like to have the "(HEADING TEXT)" replaced with a parameter (should be easy) as well as the "(INSTANCE MXML)" with several labels, text inputs, check boxes, etc. (maybe harder). I have found this script-based method, but I would like a cleaner compile-time solution if one exists.
i want to load all the attributes by the name "pagename" within this xml file into an array : my_array

I have mxml thingy, for example:
<mx:VBox id="isThisVBoxAwesomeOrWhat" width="500" height="500"
backgroundImage="@Embed('images/500x500.jpg')" verticalAlign="bottom"
includeInLayout="false"[cod
So, I have a Vbox names isThisVBoxAwesomeOrWhat that contains another VBox that containst two text fields.Now, further in the code I make a plane out of it so I can make a 3D object out of it, here is the snippet:[for i in totalPlanes]
...
var material:MovieMaterial = new MovieMaterial(isThisVBoxAwesomeOrWhat, true, true, true);
...
plane = new Plane(material, isThisVBoxAwesomeOrWhat.width, isThisVBoxAwesomeOrWhat.height, 10, 10);[code].....
So now I have my scene filled with planes made out of VBox composite as I wanted. I also have those planes in a linkedList, and what I would like to do now is to "SOMEHOW" access each individual VBox and it's composites for each individual plane.Something like this (obviously doesn't work! Just an example):
linkedList.node.data.VBox.VBox.Text[0]
so I could modify parameters on the fly. Or maybe I'm totally wrong on this and I should have as many Vbox'en as I have planes and id each individually. Whatever the case I can't figure out how to access children of the parent in this mxml example.
I'm trying to make a volume button for my site and it looks something like this:

i want the volume bar to start filled and when the user hits the minus button it lowers the volume and when it hit plus it takes the volume up well when I go down and up the volume bars start to get crazy...it just works when I go down the whole way and after it goes up the whole way, when I change direction on the midle of the path it jumps some bars...
Code:
volDown.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, menosVol);
volUp.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, maisVol);
var cliques:uint = 0

For those unfamiliar with tree structures, tree structures are usually dynamic lists where every node has a pointer to two other nodes. They are arranged so it makes for faster searching and stuff and are very useful in programming languages that offer direct access to heap memory. Although I don't know if there would be benefits of making tree structures in AS would be of any help but I decided to have a go at it anyway. Since there are no pointers in flash I tried to just replace pointers to nodes with nodes themselves. Such things usually work in java I think because the language just automatically makes pointers for variables.

I've found a simple count up script over on Actionscript.org
var count:Number = 0;
var maxNum:Number = 1250;
var num:Number = 1;
this.createTextField("txt", this.getNextHighestDepth(), 0, 0, 100, 50);
[code]....
This works great for my use, but now I am trying to figure out how to make it count down. I've tried changing everything to opposites like count=1250 and maxNum=0 (I think this would be the minNum instead), count+=num to count-=num, and count>=maxNum to count<=maxNum.
Is it possible to make a count up timer (from a specific date, birthday for exemple) from the count down timer ?
I've tried to change a few things (I'm very bad in programming) but I can't get the date properly.
If not, do somebody know a count up timer (.fla) that I can use ?
I have a picture on the stage that has multiple items that have hotspots/links over them that should open a child swf on top of the background and show details about the items. then have a button in the child swf itself that removes the child from over the background so the user can click on another item etc.I found this code in someone's post and I am trying to modify it so that works for multiple swf files...it currently works for a single swf.I wan to pass the name of the button in front of the .swf in the URLRequest to have the same name as the instance name of the referring button. But I can't figure it out. Here is the code I am using on the stage

I've used this site as a resource leading up to this, not particularly sure if I worded this correctly I have a class "Block" which is just a square (will be something else later on in the process) I want each block to have controls to add an additional block in either direction so I have another class BlockButtons which has my buttons for each direction.
