I have an XML document that is a response pulling person records from a data base query. The XML format is <root><row> .....data fields with tags </row><row> data fields with tags </row> ........ for the number of records returned. </root>. I want to split up the answer into an array of records, with each record being split up into an array of fieldsI can get to the first record with this:
var people = new Array(); var person = new Array(); var i = 0;
I as this working in AS2 and need to update to AS3...shows that AS3 doesn't like sloppy coding. Here's what I need: I pull data from an XML and that works when I put the data into a dynamic text box. However, I can't seem to get the date of birth into a variable. I have some code that calcs age in years but uses a string literal that I thought I could just replace with a variable from my XML...ain't a workin'. Here's the code I have:
There are no output errors, or compiler errors, yet when I click on one of the buttons, the movie does nothing - it certainly does not gotoAndStop on frame 62, 63, or 64 as I am asking it too. Before this code, there are no other actions at all in the movie - just a simple fade in image.. I have now tried tracing (the objects below), within the click handler curly braces (showData); 'xmlData' produces nothing in the Output 'xmlFrame' produces '0' on each click in the Output window.
Tracing both the above outside of the showData function curly braces produces; 1120: Access of undefined property of xmlFrame, or xmlData. Tracing the nameBtn[i] produces '[object SimpleButton]' in the Output Window.
And it works. My question is what code to put to replace trace(xmlData); with code that will allow me the XML components be arranged in textfields. Here is how my XML is constructed:
[Code]...
What code to put in AS so when i start naming my textfields tf1,tf2,tf3,tf4 each line from the XML to go to its text field (like first line from the XML goes to tf1, second line to tf2 etc.)
I have this datagrid which has columns with a NumericStepper as an itemEditor where the user can change the number of items he wants to buy. How can I calculate the sum of all cells when the user updates datagrid's values?
EDIT 1
My datagrid is about colors and sizes of a product. The columns are generated dynamically from this function
private function getColumn(dataField:String, headerText:String,editable:Boolean) : DataGridColumn { var column:DataGridColumn = new DataGridColumn(dataField);
[Code]....
the row.size28 is generated dynamically. So it could be row.size29,row.size30 etc.
How can I loop through all my cells without knowing their data.property?
I have many dropdowns in my flex application. Now I want to set rowCount property so that as many rows as possible so there is less scrolling when see the dropdown items.The flex application was running on a popup window. So I think I have to know the distance from dropdown to bottom border of window, and then calculate what number should be for the rowCount. Like Height/per row height.As I known, the dropdown.y is the relative y coordinate of itself. But my dropdown has many parent UI layout component, and also I have many dropdowns, it is hard to calculate one by one.
I am building a scheduling system. The current system is just using excel, and they type in times like 9:3-5 (meaning 9:30am-5pm). I haven't set up the format for how these times are going to be stored yet, I think I may have to use military time in order to be able to calculate the hours, but I would like to avoid that if possible. But basically I need to be able to figure out how to calculate the hours. for example 9:3-5 would be (7.5 hours). I am open to different ways of storing the times as well. I just need to be able to display it in an easy way for the user to understand and be able to calculate how many hours it is.
I have three datagrids inside VBox container. Since I don't want scrollbar in my flex widget i am increasing the height of SWF through javascript, which increases with each addition of row in my datagrid. My query is how can I get the exact height of my VBox which is the parent element of datagrid. I am not able to get the height of VBox. I have tried to use measuredHeight,height with no success.
I am developing an application in flex in which I need to calculate checksum of different files. I would like to know if there is a direct method in actionscript to calculate that or do I have to go for any external libraries?
I have this <s:list> with an itemrenderer and arraycollection as dataprovider. Now my problem is I want to be able to drag and drop to reorder those items. To do so I need to know the dragged item index, and the drop location. I have the selected item index but when I want to calculate my drop location using this code in my dragcompletehandler()...
I have two rectangles: var rect1:Rectangle = new Rectangle(66,147,89,67);
var rect2:Rectangle = new Rectangle(155,147,89,67);
How to calculate the centre point of these rectangles based on their x and y positions. I want the centre point to be calculated with relative to stage
I have the following function in my FogOfWar class, it calculates if its team can see the position that is passed on the arguments:[code]My problem is that, with only 3 characters in the game, it can only run 4000 times per second, which is not too much.I can implement a cache, so it caches the most commons positions, but, what else can I do to optimize it?
I need to calculate the value of a formula which is passed dynamically by using text box.This formula contains a set of variables which are already declared and assigned a value(hard coded). I will provide a submit button , on clicking this button I must be able to evaluate the formula that I have passed dynamically using the text box.
I'm working on a game which will involve space battles, and automated turrets. The turrets are giving me the headache right now. Here's what I got so far.
[URL]
The problem is, that the turrets aim at the center of their target, instead of aiming in front of their target to compensate for their movement. I can't seem to crack the equations needed to get the right rotation, for the turret to fire from. The data the turret has avaible, or that I could easily make avaible to it, are:
- The distance to the target (and it's x and y components) - The current speed vector (the size and rotation) - The angle between the heading of the target and the turret's location - The speed of the turret's shot (fixed speed)
how to find the biggest possible area within a rotated image (the black rect in attached image), but can't figure out how to calculate the points TL, TR, BR, BL to draw my rectangle (the red rectangle in attached image).
I am trying to create a 30 day trial period limitation in Flash CS3. I am having a problem with checking the number of days. I am using zinc mdm to get the date of an external file. Following is the code I am using.
var d1:Date = new Date(mdm.FileSystem.getFileDate("c:\myText.txt")) ; var d2:Date = new Date(); //(Date2 - Date1)/
