View 4 RepliesI want to know if is possibile through regularexpression, count the numbers contained into a string and add a specified character near it.
For exemple, this is a string: Hello2all821abc13 This string contain 3 numbers: 2, 821 and 13 (note that the numbers contained into 821 and 13 are considered like an unique entity, not signle). I want to add near each of it the "-" symbol. Is it possible?
I have 2 swfs. Swf #1 loads swf #2. Swf #2 has actionscript code that always makes that swf centered no matter how large screen you are viewing the swf in. When I call swf #2 into swf #1, swf #2 takes up the entire window of swf #1 when I only want it to take up a certain size.

View 2 RepliesI want to count the number of times the mouse click, whenever it is clicked. I read about the mouse events in flash but I am unable to complete is Here is my trial
1) Created an oval with the oval tool and by using text tool I wrote START on it and made it a button by clicking CREATE A SYMBOL.
2) Whenever that oval button(Start) I need to count the number of times I clicked on it.
wat should i write for the as to recount the number of btn have been clicked? cos this is used in a replay btn. i have btn for user to click n count how many time the btn have been clicked n show out the match image, so now another btn (replay)to let the user to see again the image so what should i write in the replay btn's as to let the count of the times of btn have been clicked start. cos what i done now it can't start to count again it just plus the number i have clicked for the btn.
Let's say if the image just only have 3 so tat when i finish clicked 3 times all the image ady showed n now i click the replay btn but wat i get is wrong cos in the output box it still counting the number i have been click for the btn so it show 4,5,. it can't start count again.
Trying to get the first letter of a String to capital, and the rest of the String must be lower case. I think I am on the right tracks with the first letter, but not sure how to make everything else forced to be lowercase. Heres a bit of info because I might need to change things. I load in a flashvar vaiable by
var flashVar3 = root.loaderInfo.parameters.myVar2;
I am not to sure what data type this would be, not sure what flashvars comes as. I am then doing
var oldStr:String = flashVar3;
var newStr:String = oldStr.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + oldStr.substr(1);
tf3.text=" "+ newStr;
I dont know if the first line is an issue, because i dont know if flashvars comes as a String. But what I have generally would work on the first letter. Not to sure how I can force the rest of the String to be lowercase though. At this moment in time, I get the error TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.
But I am not sure if this is because my flashvars variable is defined at runtime. Any advise on getting all of this working would be great.
This code just does what it says.
Code:
myString="This code eliminates letter "o"."
letterKill =function(letter){

I have a list of 10+ items. when i click back up the list 1 step i call the code below to remove a thumbnail image associated with that list item.
if(indice < count-i){mx.core.Application.application.removethumb.dispat chEvent(new MouseEvent(MouseEvent.CLICK));
}
HOWEVER: I would like that if - for example i am on item 10 and click to item 4 - all the thumbnails between 4-10 are removed. it it possible to dispatch this click event X number of times dependant on the - count value?? FOR REFERENCE: THIS IS THE CODE THAT REMOVES ALL ITEMS BEYOND THE ONE I HAVE SELECTED:

I neeed to insert spaces in front of capital letters in a string. the string contains the name of a country instance for example demRepublicOfCongo. I would like to scan the string and inset spaces before each capital letter so that the contents of the above string would become dem Republic Of Congo, for eaxmple.I found some code that It is posted below.
//Works out country name from string
var country:String=counrtyinstance.replace("_mc","");
var re:RegExp = /(?<=[a-z])([A-Z])/g;

Algorithm to generate all possible letter combinations of given string down to 2 letters
Trying to create an Anagram solver in AS3, such as this one found here:
[URL]
I'm having a problem wrapping my brain around generating all possible letter combinations for the various lengths of strings. If I was only generating permutations for a fixed length, it wouldn't be such a problem for me... but I'm looking to reduce the length of the string and obtain all the possible permutations from the original set of letters for a string with a max length smaller than the original string. For example, say I want a string length of 2, yet I have a 3 letter string of "abc", the output would be: ab ac ba bc ca cb.
Ideally the algorithm would produce a complete list of possible combinations starting with the original string length, down to the smallest string length of 2. I have a feeling there is probably a small recursive algorithm to do this, but can't wrap my brain around it. I'm working in AS3.
Given the following example SWF: Sample Notice how with the words "enthusiast" at the end of the first line and "write" at the end of the second line, that they start to type out on the first line but after a few letters they are bumped.
I understand this is the correct behavior, but is there a way for "enthusiast" to begin being typed on the second line, and "write" on the third line instead of being bumped during the typing?
Currently I am thinking of doing a search ahead mechanism, so it finds the next word in whole, then makes that the active word to print, temporarily print it, see if it increases the numlines, and if it does insert a line break and continue writing. But it seems fiddly.

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...

View 2 RepliesI've got an inputfield.OnChange Event Handler.When someone types a letter, i want the letter to become 0, then 1, then 2, and so on until 9 and then i want the letter to be there.And when they click on another letter, same effect happens.so at the end if i typed, "testing", each letter scrolls 0-9 like a roll dial and settles on the letter typed.What i've managed to do is make it work, but if i type at normal speed and not slow, i end up getting something like: t32t43g
