I want to show some data from an xml file inside a datagrid, so I do this:
<mx:AdvancedDataGrid id="dgDomains" dataProvider="{new XMLListCollection(xmlDomains..domain(deleted.toString() != '1'))}"
...
[code].....
I have made it this far with much help and all was working well until the xml changed. Sometimes the c_Result node does not exist and my c_points text box returns 'undefined'. I have tried if(c_points != undefined){ etc which works to a degree but I don't know how to make the text box blank if the node doesn't exist and load the c_Result node if it does.
import mx.styles.CSSStyleDeclaration;
_global.styles.TextArea = new CSSStyleDeclaration();

(I'm using Cairngorm)I have a combobox that displays items form an XMLListCollection that's in my model.I want to only view the items (XML) whose "sent" properties is false.. like item.sent == 'false'.This filter must apply only to this specific combobox, not everything that's bound to the XMLListCollection source.And of course it must update and refresh the filter if the source changes..I'm trying to use filterFunction but don't understand how it works...
View 1 RepliesI am trying to display content of xmllistcollection in different fields in my datagrid however unless I use an itemrenderer the value is not displaying in the grid. The xmllistcollection is populated from a webservice call. Inside my item renderer i use a custom namesspace to retrieve contents from the xmllistcollection
value.ns::firstName
However if I try something like
dataField = "ns::firstName"
In the datagrid without using an item renderer I get no data output.
How can I filter a datagrid based on the value in the combo box? Can anyone show me some good examples on it?
In my application, I already filter a datagrid based on the text entered by the user. I check if the entered string matches the column entry of the datagrid and if a match is found,the filterFunction on the dataprovider is called.
This is that code:
<mx:FormItem direction="horizontal">
<mx:ComboBox id="searchCriteria1" dataProvider="{criteriaDP1}" change="searchFunction()"/>
<mx:TextInput id="search" change="searchFunction()"/>
[Code]....
searchCriteria is the comboBox,where I have the items, "ALL","HIGH"...I have two rows with value "high" and I get the Alert "yes" for two times only.. But in the data grid all the four rows are displayed.
To situate things I am working on a translation utility with a datagrid having 3 columns : translation code, reference text and target text.
The DataGrid's dataProvider property is bound to an ArrayCollection instance. The user can edit the grid and on a successful edit, the underlying collection is updated using the setItemAt() method. The collection also has a filter function to make it easier to find certain texts.
When the user clicks the 'apply filter' button the filter function is updated. This works well. The problem I have is that rows are hidden as soon as the underlying collection item change in a way that doesn't comply with the filter. The row is hidden immediately, which is not very user friendly. Rows should only hide (or be shown) when the 'apply filter' button is pressed.
Why does Flex 3 DataGrid read a string from XML lastResult.node as number?A field is saved as var_char in mysql, php reads it as string and pass it OK.If there are more then 16 charaters it gets rounded....For example:
this in database cell:
12345678901234567
gets read in DataGrid as nubmer as 12345678901234568
this is in database cell:
5555544444222223333377777
php reads it same and puts it in XML flex reads XML into arrayCollection and DataGrid reads it as:
5.55554444422222e+24
So it reads it as number, why? And how to make it read as String? I tried with labelFunction, no help.

View 1 RepliesI'm currently modifying an xml menu found in the kirupa tutorials and Ive gotten stuck. I want the menu to filter into different columns depending on a xml node called type="". So far I have this but I cant seem to get my head around how to filter the menu.

var currNode;
var currItem;
var currMenu = container.createEmptyMovieClip(name, depth);

at the moment all I've tried to do is filter the menu with an if statement to only display the type node with "web" in them. As soon as I undestand how this is done I sohuld be albe to do the rest myself.

My aim is to construct a search tool, but I need it to ignore "The" from company names, and from the search, just in case the user searched the company name with The and its not on the xml, and vice versa... you know how it is...Anyway, i basically need something like "ignoreLeft(4)"... 4 being T H E and a space... but ignoreLeft() doesn't exist...
ActionScript Code:
//If the user searches with "the"
if (Search.text.Left(4).toLowerCase() == "the"){[code]...........
The trouble is the XML file isnt ammedable so I have to make changes during the search, otherwise I could just remove "the" from the xml file...I know this is fictitious code, but this is how I would imagine it to sound?
I am reading in an XML file in AS3. I need to find out if an attribute exists on a node. I want to do something like:

This doesn't work however. The above if statement is always true, even if the attribute id isn't on the node.

View 1 RepliesI'm using Flashbuilder 4.6 and can't get sorting of columns in my s:DataGrid to work, clicking on the columns does nothing. Can anyone suggest what is wrong?
[Code]...
Im attempting to create a class which cleans all the mess it's done by itself. If i make some instances of this class in an external class, i want the base class remove itself, or in other words, if i linkage this class to any movieclip, i want to remove this movieclip not in the file I created it in, but rather would like it to automatically remove itself if i want it to. I don't know if it's even possible. A simple removeChild(this) isnt working.
View 3 RepliesI have an item renderer tied to an mx:DataGrid column. The renderer used to be inline with the column, but I've moved it out to its own file so I can reuse it across multiple tables.
The problem is that now the renderer doesn't resize (grow/shrink) when the column is resized. So if the user makes the column very small, the contents displayed by the renderer just eat up space and show up over top other columns
Code for Item Renderer:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:MXDataGridItemRenderer xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"

I have a series of images & links in my XML file that looks like[code]...
You'll see in the third once there is no link. Apparently, when I throw it into an XMLList, it gets ignored and all of the links are off by one.
Code 2 assume that main = main + sub even if it doesn't exist outside the if statement, that's obvious since sub is an empty string.

if I put in the contentPath of a FLVPlayback component a file that doesn't exist, how can I catch an error event? (All files are loaded locally, without a FMS) I tried to dodge the problem using other events, but if the file doesn't exist, pretty much none of the events will work.
View 1 RepliesIf I set the properties of "buttonMode" and "useHandCursor" to true in DataGrid, it does not work as I expect. Only if I move the cursor to the edge between two rows, the hand cursor displayes.
What I expect is that no matter where the cursor is moved, it should always show hand cursor.

I'm doing a project using ActionScript 2 where I'm loading in text from an XML file to dynamic text boxes.

Is there anyway I can access those to set their text property from the first frame

What is the role of source for an ArrayCollection or XMLListCollection? Is it used just once - when constructing a new ArrayCollection or XMLListCollection object and is it copied to some internal data structure of that object?
Because nothing is updated when the source Array (or XMLList) is being modified and the documentation confirms it too: The underlying XMLList for this collection. The XMLListCollection object does not represent any changes that you make directly to the source XMLList object. Always use the XMLListCollection methods to modify the collection.
This property can be used as the source for data binding. When this property is modified, it dispatches the listChanged event.
I'm asking because Flex examples related to dataProviders always use some Array or XMLList as source of data for a data-driven component. And I wonder, if using Array or XMLList is necessary at all - when for example loading data from external PHP-script.
When the XMLListCollection is updated in the DataGrid, I want it to add the XML (bind it) into the Model. How would I do this? Or if not possible, how would I manually add XML into the Model?
This is a rough example of what I'm trying to do. Adding data to the DataGrid works fine; it just doesn't go into the Model when sending to the HTTPService.
<mx:Model id="model">
<root><colors>{collection}</colors></root>
</mx:Model>
<mx:XMLListCollection id="collection" />
