Currently I work on localization for a Flex application. From an article I know that you can control the localization with the following FlashVars:
-resourceModuleURLs
-localeChain
Are there any other FlashVars reserved by Adobe that a Flash/Flex Developer should know about?
I'm receiving an RSS feed from a source I can't change. Each item record has the following structure...
<item xmlns:media="
http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/">
<title>Sample Title</title>
<link>

[Code]...
This is a problem if the feed changes it's structure. I'd much rather get the value by name but it doesn't seem to work.
I know i can access multiply selected options of a list by
var selectedAlgos:Array = algosList.selectedItems;

How to i send this array via HTTPService to a phpfile and how can i then access the elements of this array from the php file?
I'm trying to compile a decent .zwl file for squiggly spell checking in Flex; using British words, not American as supplied by default.
Ive managed to create a decent British list of words and ran them through the AdobeSpellingGen app to get a .zwl; great stuff.
However i need to add into this list a list of names, so they wont be flagged.
Does anyone know of a good source of either free, or paid for list of English Fore and surnames? Im trying BT as i type :)
I am writing a business app in Flex that uses web services to communicate with a middle tier. The web services accept and return messages in XML format. In many cases, I need to be able to allow the user to type something like the following into a field in the app, which in turn will be added as an element in an XML payload bound for a SOAP web service (without the quotes):
"account balance < 1000"
The Flex parser chokes when trying to serialize an element with this in the Text node (e.g., account balance < 1000. So I need some way to encode the "<" to "<" prior to doing the XML serialization. In addition, I would prefer a generic way to do this, such as with an attribute on the service declaration, since I have over 40 services that must support this kind of input.
I send flashvars to flash. Those variables are one user id variable and unknown number of corresponding friend and relation vars (friend1, friend2, relation1, relation and so on, all the items from DB).I get the of course from an object:Code:var flashVars=this.root.loaderInfo.parameters;and check how many friends did the php send to me . There is one user id variable and an even number of friends and relations so the way i check how many mates do i have is:

View 6 RepliesIs there any way I can get a list of all the classes in a particular package?
I know getDefinitionByName, getQualifiedClassName, and getQualifiedSuperclassName in flash.utils can find me a class, but I can't find anyway to find all the classes in a package at runtime.
I am currently trying to develop an application in Flash.Currently I am working on trying to contact a webservice to get a list of course names.I am getting the results but I cannot even parse them. In the schema for my Web Services Connector, it prepopulates to say that it expects the results to be ArrayOfAnyType.So I have this code in my on( result) call:
Code:
var x:Array = this.results;
var y:XML = x[0];
trace(y);[code]....
Now, when I try to go through that XML object and print values using this script:
Code:
var children:Array = y.childNodes;
for(i = 0; i < children.length; ++i)
{[code]....
From what I have gathered in the help menu, Flash has two types of XML nodes, a node, and a textNode.nodeValue will always be nukll for a node but on a text node it will return what you would expect and I don't know that I can convert between the two or force it one way or another.I don't have a clue why it is like that but apparently that is how it works.What can i do to get this data in?
Is there some way to get it to parse as an array? As far as we can tell, it should be going from the webservice as an Array, SOAP should convert to XML and then Flash should decode back to an array... it doesn't seem to be working that way though.
I have this:
Code:
function onAdd(e:Event){
switch (getQualifiedClassName(e.target))

I am near the point of breakdown trying to figure this out it's beyond my capabilities and maybe even brain power.

View 10 RepliesI am trying to create a list of names which is generated by a swf file that contains buttons representing letters of the alphabet. The user generates a name by clicking on the letter buttons until the letters of the name have been spelled out and then clicking on abutton to add each name to the list. The names are generated inside the swf file but I want the list of names to be deposited in a file within a folder of the computer and remain there as a permanent record after the swf file has been closed. I can do the Actionscript 3 programming associated with the letter buttons but I would like to know how to send the names to the computer file.
View 15 Repliessuppose i receive some data from php separated by commas. Like:a, b, new, data...these will be in a variable say "files". Now, i receive the var and i have to show the names of the files in a vertical list. Like:

And also they will be a link to some php file or any such thing. how to do this?
i have a website like ustream, where user can register and create live channels and publish live video using FMLE.
Now i want to check wether a particular channel is online or offline. I have stream name for particular channel. My website is coded in PHP. I have tried using getLiveStreamStats function, it works fine where the XML file is not heavy. I mean number of subscribers are less. Then i can just check the Publisher Tag. if it exists that means stream video is live, else not.
But problem arrives when the number of subscribers are high. The XML file do not loads in PHP, and it takes too much time to load the page.
what can be done to just check if the xml file has publisher tag. and display if the stream is live or not
I want to retrieve the list of live stream name.

I'm using CS3 with ActionScript 3. I'm a designer by training and have been tossed into coding by happenstance. My perfect scenario: User sees an easily navigable list of colors, each with swatch (like a small square) and name (text). (I basically want something like the InDesign color swatch list, in dropdown or list form.) She selects a color. Appropriate movie clip is filled with said color. First of all I'm not even sure what component to use. I had a ComboBox that was working great except for only showing color names, not swatches. I could use a custom data provider with the ColorPicker, but the user needs to see our assigned color names.
Is a TileList my best bet? If so, how do I set up a TileList with color swatches and names to then change the color of a movie clip when the user selects a color? I can make it work (except for swatches showing) with my data provider set up with color name in the label spot and hex value in the data spot, with simple code of this sort:

View 2 RepliesHere is a snip from within my code:
[Code]...
The 'recommendations' dataProvider is an ArrayCollection of String, which are generally sentences about as long as this one. By setting the variableRowHeight and wordWrap properties as shown, if a sentence is too long to fit on a single line, everything works fine- the row expands and the messages show on two lines, or occasionally three.
The space allocated for this panel within the entire canvas means if the total text size of 'recommendations' exceeds six lines, I need for the entire list scroll. This is also working just fine. The trouble is when using the mouse wheel to do the scrolling- Flex scrolls both the entire list and the single item where the mouse is hovering. Often this results in only the second half of a sentence being visible. Non-programmer friends I have asked to look at this noticed this, and tell me it as a problem. If a user does not notice the dual scrolling, and sees only a fragment of a sentence, it will be perceived as an error in the application.

I am currently working on a project in Flex and I am having a hard time having a list's contents ALL be selected by default. Wondering how to do this.

I'm trying to animate a list as I delete the top row. All the examples I can find use itemsChangeEffect to bind to the effect, but this property exists only in MX lists, not spark lists.
Any idea how I can get the same effect done in Spark Lists?
I'm trying to remove the top most item in the list with a slight fade out effect before the rest of the items move up to replace the gap.
