I have the following XMLList and am trying to return the XMLList with the node having the label Mail Box or Outbox, depending on string variable called folder. folder can either be equal to "Mail Box" or "Outbox".
I have an XMLList 'Keywords', which consists of about 30 elements. I want to count the number of unique keywords in the List, and how often they occur. Then display the top 3 most occuring keywords.
I need to know how I can parse a variable path in Flex 3 & e4X. For example, I have two XML strings where the name of one element is the only difference.
I'm trying to loop through an XMLList and rather than giving me each item in the list as XML, it's just coming back with the positions as strings e.g.
[Code]...
It just alerts "0" or "1". If I inspect the 'item' variable, I see the same thing. But if I inspect 'myList' it looks like the XML. I've also tried myList.children() and strongly typing 'items' to 'XML' but nothing I do has worked.
If I have an XMLList object in Flex, what is the proper way to check to see if the list is empty? Should I just compare the result of myList.length() > 0, myList.toString() != "" or try another method altogether?
Is there anyway of type casting an ArrayCollection to xmllistcollection or to xmllist or can we covert ArrayCollection to xmllistcollection or to xmllist?
I need to call an HTTP service using Flex that has variable arguments. I'm using Flash Builder 4 (Gumbo) to create the service definition, but there's no UI for variable arguments, and the subclass of HTTPServiceWrapper that it creates doesn't seem to support it.
What it says on the tin: I have an XMLList, and I want to find where in it a particular XML item falls. First index is good enough for my purposes. Note that I have no problem writing a function to do this by hand... but I was hoping that the API has something buried somewhere that'll do it for me. I didn't see it, though.
However this displays the datagrid with two rows, the first row has 1 in the Series column and then the two files crammed into the second cell in the same row. The second row is the same but has the number 2 in the Series column and the two series #2 files crammed into the cell next to it.If i do not use the nested data class i can pull the files using Series.file instead and all 4 of the files list correctly, however i do not get the Series number for each...
I have seen numerous examples on how to remove duplicates in ArrayCollection but I can't seem to transpose this to XMLList. In most ArrayCollection examples, the example compares the key of the array with hasOwnProperty method and return a bool. That's fine, but what would I compare to when using an XMLList? Let's say I have:
Given this XML code:[code]I can count the total number of game elements in the XML.game with:[code]Is there please some way to print the number of all game elements having the exact number of 3 user children? And also count all such elements with less than 3 user children?[code]The backgound is, that I have a Flex game, where up to 3 players can sit at a playing table and I'm trying to display the number of All, Vacant and Full playing tables there (the top left row with RadioButtons, sorry for the non-English language):I'm reading the XMLList doc, but don't see how to do it with one-liners, I only can see how to do it with loops...
We can auto-generate flex-confix xml file from flash-builder so to provide users that want to compile project on there own would be capable of doing such thing with out buying FB. So we use something like -dump-config slotConfig.xml as flex compiler argment. This generates a file for us... with lots of detailed comments like this one I generated from that project:
I'm currently working on an advanced preloader and i'm creating loads of different variables etc. based on the percentage loaded. I need the variables to be named Number + percentage, so in the end I will have Number1, Number2, Number3, Number4 etc. How can I create variable names using my percentage variable? Can't seem to find anything that answers my question.
I want to be able to have a number displayed on the screen that when one of the arrows next to it (up/down) is clicked it adds 1 to the original number (lets say 72). Then when they click the "save" button that really just takes them to the next frame (or a frame somewhere else in the movie), which is a confirmation page, I want the number they ended at to display on the confirmation screen. I'm thinking that it is partially because I don't know what to search for.I know I have to create a variable and get the button to add one to that variable.
There is something I couldn't solve: when I search a specific node in a XMLList containing several level of hierarchy, filter never search in the top parent node. For example, if I have a tree like this:
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.
I want to create several "buttons" (which are actually MovieClips) that are all identical apart from an image and the link. My thought was to create a movieclip button that contains a var that will represent a movieclip, then in each instance of the movieclip button set that variable to be the movieclip image that will correspond to the button.
Geez my query seems so simple until I try and put it into words...The gist of it is, how do I name a movie clip variable? Something like, in the main movieclip, instead of inserting a specific image into the movieclip, insert a variable named innerImage, then in each instance of that movieclip name the image to be inserted by specifying the variable
var innerImage:MovieClip = the movieclip I want for this instance. If the var was a number, it would just be: var innerImage:number = 4; If the var was a string: var innerImage:string = "word"; So for a movieclip: var innerImage:MovieClip = ???
Is it possible to create variables with a function? I don't mean create my own variable in a function but actually have the function create a unique variable name (eg. exam1, exam2 and so on) they would all have the same data type.
