For example I have two ArrayCollection's - firstAC and secondAC. If I do secondAC = firstAC, and than I make changes to secondAC (prehaps put a filterfunction on it) it somehow propagates to firstAC, would anyone tell me why that happens in Flex or Actionscript 3?
What can I do if I only want secondAC to get all data from firstAC but then when I make changes to secondAC it does not show in firstAC?
I have 2 movie clips, one being loaded into a container MC via "loadMovie();"In the main movie there is a variable with no value, in the external movie there are 5 frames, each with a value to update the variable in the main movie.
IE: if on frame 1, global value = 1 / if on frame 2, global value = 2 / etc etc I'm familiar with passing variables INTO an external swf, but am stumped on how to do it the reverse way.
I would like to store a hex colorPicker value in a variable and then cast the value of the var backout to a textInput. The textInput is just to see witch hexcolor i have choosen.
thus meaning seeing 0x000000 in the textInput.
what i've done now is pretty simple i have bound the flex colorPicker directly to my textInput. but i want to store the value from the colorPicker in a var first and than spit it backout to the textInput to see the value that i have picked.
When i pick a color value that begins with the number 0 it drops the 0's at the beginning of the number and only spits out the numbers greater than 0. (000033 becomes 33, FF0000 stays FF0000). I want to catch the whole value or write some kind a function to figure out how many 0's got dropped and concatenate it together with 0x. Store that all into a var and bind it to the flex TextInput.
This is what i've got.

How can I access the member variable of an object by using a variable in the name.Example:
Entries Object has properties 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
Normally I would access them by
var i : int = Entries.1;
[code].....
f you know PHP...then you know that you can create a string variable...and then use the value of that variable to declare another variable. like this:
PHP Code:
<?php$foo = "haha";$i{$foo} = "success";print $i{haha};?>
and it would display "success"...or like this:
PHP Code:
<?php$foo = "haha";$$foo = "success";print $haha;?>
and it would also display "success".

View 2 RepliesI've got a little question answer app that I've created. Everything is working fine but now I'm trying to make the quiz more dynamic by loading and uploading different quizzes from a database.
I seem to have almost everything working fine but I've ran into a bit of a problem converting my answer check function from static to dynamic data.
Here's a bit of my code.
if (b1.selected != true) {
q1a.styleName = "incorrect";
q1a.text = incorrect + b1.value;
score = score -1;
}
Like a said this seemed to work fine with static content just checking if the radio button was selected or not.
I need to replace - b1.selected with my database variable in this case its pertestq1a.
pertestq1a currently equals b1.
How can I add my variable to this if statement to be recognized as an element id?
an easy answer for 99% of you. I have a custom class 'Users()'. In PHP I have all the values being populated correctly. When I go to Flash Builder - and do the test function - All the data comes back properly. However, when I click a button and refer to the lastResult property of the CallResponder - it comes up NULL the first time, and then if the button is clicked a second time it will return the correct result. What step am I missing? I had the same problem with something simliar last night and am getting BEYOND frustrated - especially since I know it is some SMALL detail I'm overlooking.So just for clarification - lets say there is a button named button1So button1's click handler:1) Validates the text input properties2) Asks the server if that user and password match3) If they do - then I want it to grab all of that specific users info and put it into a User class. Again - when I test this function/method from within Flash Builder all the values come back as they should. It's just on the first button click they come back NULL...he second click they populate fine - I.E.-
Alert.show(currentUser.userFirstName); (First Click - NULL)
Alert.show(currentUser.userFirstName); (Second click - "Jack")

Does anyone know some ActionScript api to get String of a variable name like following:
var foo:int;
var variableName:String = getName(foo);
trace(variableName);
The console need to show "foo" as the result of trace(variableName);
The crux of my issue is that I want to allow my application to be able to read off a number on the end of the address. i.e. someone accessing [URL] will then access the application which can come up with information pulled from a database unique to 123456. Now I'd know where to start looking if I was using say html, but with flash builder/flex/actionscript etc.
