Getting A 12 Hour Format Clock Working [b]RIGHT[/b]
Ok I'm having problems with my clock. I want it to display in 12 hour format but when I get it to show right for AM the PM one screws over then I can't get it back. Here is the code.
Code:
// Script to get the time string from the newDate object
newDate = new Date();
myHour = newDate.getHours();
// If the hour display is less than 2 digits, add an extra 0
if (length(myHour)<2)
{
myHour = "0" + myHour;
}
if (myHour.toString.valueOf >= 0) {
myHour = myHour - "-12" * "-1" - "6" * "1" - "12";
}
if (myHour.toString.valueOf <= 0) {
myHour = myHour * "-1" - "6" - "12";
}
myMinute = newDate.getMinutes();
if (length(myMinute)<2) {
myMinute = "0" + myMinute;
}
mySecond = newDate.getSeconds();
if (length(mySecond)<2) {
mySecond = "0" + mySecond;
}
// Space out the HH:MM:SS
if (myHour.valueOf.toString >= 12) {
displayTime = myHour + ":" + myMinute + ":" + mySecond + "PM";
}
if (myHour.valueOf.toString <= 0) {
displayTime = myHour + ":" + myMinute + ":" + mySecond + "AM";
}
Also is there a way to not show passwords and only show ****...etc.
Thanx

Time And Date...12 Hour Vs 24 Hour Clock
I have an MC that displays the time as well as the day of the week, day of the month, month and year. It works perfect except it displays the date using a 24 hour clock instead of a 12 hour clock. For example, right now it is 1:19 pm, but the clock in the SWF will display 13:19.
The code below is on the first frame of the MC. How can I modify this code so that it displays the hour based on a 12 hour clock?
Thanks...
function howlong(arg) {
if (length(arg)==1) {
arg = "0" + arg;
return arg;
}
else {
arg = arg;
return arg;
}
}
myDate = new Date();

Mobile Phone Clock - Simple Digital 24 Hour Clock
Hi
I need to make a digital clock/watch for a mobile phone flash demo. I know there are lots of clock on flash kit but they all have seconds and minutes - I need just hours and minutes! - The clock also has to be 24 hour.
I've tried taking the code from a flash kit clock and tweaking it but it seems to screw up - for example 07.03 comes out as 7.3 - looks really naf like that!
If anyone can help me out with a source file or some code I would be most greatful!

Making A 24 Hour Clock - HOW?
Ive used this tutorial script to construct an analog clock, and would like to convert to a 24 format seeing as when i reset my system time to say 23:11 the clock crashes.
Any ideas??
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
// Gets the time information and stores in MyDate
MyDate = new Date();
// Assigns values individually
hour = MyDate.getHours();
minute = MyDate.getMinutes();
// Calculates position for hours hand
if (hour>11) {
hour = hour-12;
}
hour = hour*5;
movement = minute/12;
hour = int(hour+movement);
// Moves hours hand
with (_root.Clock.Hours) {
gotoAndStop(hour)+1;
}
// Moves minutes hand
with (_root.Clock.Minutes) {
gotoAndStop(minute)+1;
}
}

Clock's Running One Hour Fast
I have a clock in the web site i am making, and its one hour fast!!?? I have tested it out on more than one system (windows xp, windows 98) both running Flash player 5. I have downloaded more than one clock setup from the turorials here, and they are all one hour fast. It is obvious that its something to do with the flash player.
So how do i get this problem fixed? I live in adelaide (and therefor go by there time) its +9:30 GMT, and we have daylight savings. Could this have something to do with it????
thanx a million in advance.

Check Clock & Do Action Every Hour?
Hi Guys, i have a simple clock which represents 1 minute real time as 1 hour. I want it to perform this every hour:
Code:
_root.mc._width = _root.mc._width-6;
The code for the clock is:
Code:
Minutes = 12;//the start hour (24 hour time; i.e. >> 14 == 2 PM)
function AddHour() {
Minutes += 1;
time.text = getTime();
}
setInterval(AddHour, 60000);//60000 represents 60000 milliseconds, or 1 minute
function getTime() {
Hour = Minutes;
if (Minutes>=12 && Minutes<24) {
if (Minutes != 12) {
Hour -= 12;
}
Status = "P.M.";
} else if (Minutes<12 && Minutes>0) {
Hour = Minutes;
Status = "A.M.";
} else if (Minutes == 0 || Minutes == 24) {
Hour = 12;
Status = "A.M.";
Minutes = 0;
}
return (Hour+" "+Status);
}
time.text = getTime();
Thanks alot, Dave

Clock Where 1min Real Time = 1 Hour
Hi guys, i'm wanting to create a clock (either analogue or digital) with hour/minute hands/digits where 1 hour on the clock represents 1 minute real time. Obviously the clock will be faster than normal so i think showing seconds would be pointless.
Hope you understand!
cheers in advance, dave.

Clock .getUTC Not Working
Hi,
I'm trying to create a clock which will show time from a given time zone. In this case I'm using the .getUTC command. I have a problem though as it is working in adobe flash when I do the "Test Movie" option but later after exporting it shows time from my computer. Can anyone help me please.
Thanks in advance.
Attach Code
time=new Date(); // time object
minutes = time.getUTCMinutes()
hours = time.getUTCHours()
hours = hours +(minutes/60);
hours = hours +1;
minutes = minutes*6; // calculating minutes
hours = hours*30; // calculating hours
minute_hand._rotation=minutes; // giving rotation property

Working With Illustrations. Best Format, Settings, Resoltuion. Problems.
Hi All,
I'm having some trouble working with the illustrations on my site. I do drawings, that are very sketchy -- black and white mostly, with pencil and ink. I'm transfering my html site into Flash, and importing the illustration .jpgs I used in Fireworks are giving me, blurred, blocky images in Flash.
Are there any tricks I should be incorporating to get nice, acurate renditions of the original files via flash?
Do you recommened a specific resolution, file size, format? Are there settings within flash that I'm missing entirely?
I've tried them as .Jpegs, .GIFs and .BMP's, all looking bad once they're in flash. Should I set them up as "wallpaper" on a square object? Everything thus far is 72 dpi.
Thanks for the assist,

Countdown Clock (sync With Server Clock In .asp) PLEASE HELP
I used Senocular's awesome countdown clock tutorial found here:
http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/countdown2.htm
but I need to figure out how to sync it to my server's clock (I understand I must do this in a .asp file and then load that into flash).
Using vbscript this is what I tried, but obviously it doesn't work I think I may need to convert it completely to seconds first before bringing it into flash:
<%
Dim MyTime
MyTime=now()
response.Write("time="&MyTime)
%>
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks so much!

Searching For Over An Hour?
I've been searching for over an hour now on how to upload my flash intro to my site. All I can find is information about people who didn't publish it or put the .fla on their site. Well, call me dumb, but they didn't go any further into detail and I'M REALLY NEW! I can't even find this info in the tutorial's section. I bought flash 5 last week. I got a demo here at flashkit, spent a week personalizing it and changing some things.
Should I be doing a search for "SCRIPTING" instead of "UPLOADING FLASH"? Where can I just find a walkthrough.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer, and for maybe even NOT laughing at my situation!!!

Help In The 11th Hour
I have had an outside developer create a projector for me that is essentially a file browser. I hired outside because I have never developed any flash to affect the system.
What is supposed to happen is that in the projector, when you double click on an image it is supposed to open the folder where the file is located on the CD (where the projector is located) so you can copy the files to youyr hard drive He has managed to get this to work on the windows CD but of course the code does not work on Mac.
I have a feeling that you can do this with the fscommand but as I said I have never done this before. And of course it is the 11th hour.

Another Hour Another Problem :)
code:
_root.Hlevel -= 1
this._xscale -= 1
if (_root.Hlevel <= 0) {
_root.gotoAndPlay("DEATH",1);
} else {
this.gotoAndPlay(1);
}
This is the actionscript i put in the
30th frame of a movie clip representing the variable "Hlevel"
the problem is...when the variable reaches
0 the main movie doesn't goto the scene "DEATH"
in fact nothing happens.
I've provided the FLA file but i dont think it will help much.
By the way i think the problem may be due to Paths...but i've been slaving over this for 2 days so i cant figure it out.

[flash Mx/5] Day, Hour, Min, Sec...but What About Month
hi everyone... just got a simple question:
in the following code, which displays a set countdown in days, hours, minutes, seconds, how is it possible to show months? so that i can have months/days/hours
quote:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
currentDate = new Date();
// note: flash starts to count months from 0, so January is month 0 and December month 11.
// the date here is expressed as follows: Year, Month, Day, Hour, Minutes, Seconds.
endDate = new Date(2002, 11, 31, 23, 59, 59);
days = (endDate-currentDate)/1000/60/60/24;
daysRound = Math.floor(days);
hours = (endDate-currentDate)/1000/60/60-(24*daysRound);
hoursRound = Math.floor(hours);
minutes = (endDate-currentDate)/1000/60-(24*60*daysRound)-(60*hoursRound);
minutesRound = Math.floor(minutes);
seconds = (endDate-currentDate)/1000-(24*60*60*daysRound)-(60*60*hoursRound)-(60*minutesRound);
secondsRound = Math.round(seconds);
// Check when to put day and when to put days
if (daysRound == 1) {
dy = " day ";
} else {
dy = " days ";
}
if (secondsRound == 60) {
secondsRound = 0;
}
if (minutesRound == 60) {
minutesRound = 0;
}
if (secondsRound<=9) {
secondsRound = "0"+secondsRound;
}
if (minutesRound<=9) {
minutesRound = "0"+minutesRound;
}
if (daysRound<=-1) {
timeRemaining = "endDate introduced!";
} else {
timeRemaining = daysRound+dy+hoursRound+":"+minutesRound+":"+secon dsRound;
}
------------------------------------------------------------------------
any help appreciated as always, thanks

UTC Issue With Not Displaying Hour Of Only 12 PM?
I have a clock running off of UTC time that displays another timezone. Everything works and displays fine EXCEPT when it should be 12pm yet will display 12am! When it hits 1-- it displays 1pm (which is correct) and correctly displays all other times. What is happening between the hours of 12-1? It refuses to display PM time for 12. It will display the correct AM time (it doesn't leap to PM).
PHP Code:
var today:Date = new Date();today.setUTCHours(today.getUTCHours() + 8);var date = today.getUTCDate();var month = today.getMonth();var year = today.getUTCFullYear();if (year == 2008 && month == 7 && date >= 9 && date <= 25) { var elapsed = date - 8; count.daysElapsed.text = elapsed;}else if ((year == 2008 && month == 7 && date > 25) || (year == 2008 && month > 7) || year > 2008) { gotoAndPlay(109);}else if ((year == 2008 && month == 7 && date < 9) || (year == 2008 && month < 7) || year < 2008) { if (date == 8) { gotoAndPlay(120); } else { gotoAndPlay(116); }}

&thisDayDate=10&
&thisHourTime=20&
&thisMinuteTime=00&
for example. This way we I need to change the txt and not the swf file. Still it would be great if there's a way to modify the txt file in a way I'd need to change it only once a day (or so that it allows me to select the hours to which it need to count down to)
>> let say count down from 2 till 3, and 4 till 5 o'clock or so... and be able to skip hours.
Any help would be great. Tnx

24 Hour Shared Object
I am new to shared objects. I am trying to make a poll where people can only vote once every 24 hours. So, to keep it simple, how would you write a shared object to make if statement to say that you can do 'this' only once a day. No real security measures need to be taken just a simple yes or no. Can anyone help - thanks in advance!

Streaming Audio For 1 Hour
Hello,
I have this little interface that has a stop, pause, and play button to play some streaming audio. It also has a slider bar so that they can rewind or fast forward through the audio. Here's the problem... The audio is 1 hour long. I have a little ticker that counts how many minutes the audio has been played, so if they are in the middle, the ticker will read "30:00". When the ticker reaches 21 minutes, it stops ticking and I can't slide the slider bar forward. However, the audio keeps playing. To stream audio you have to have as many frames in the timeline as there is in the audio. So I have something like 70,000 frames in my movie... maybe even more. My thought is that the timeline isn't built for that many frames, so the streaming keeps going even if the timeline is out of space. My question is, is there any way to do this? I think I have to stream the audio to be able to keep the play and pause button as well as the slider. I borrowed this little interface and have attached it here for you to view. It calls a seperate sound file that is the entire audio stretched out across the timeline.
Any thoughts are appreciated.
Thanks!

Play A Playlist By Hour Of The Day
Hi all!
First of all, this is my first post so... Hi!
I have a tricky problem! I used flash a bit for simple things. I find it easy to use as a design tool and powerfull enough to do... well, just about anything!
The background:
The problem is, I'm involved on a project that is starting on my university which basicly is a closed circuit TV that displays weekly (and daily news), some other information but on the main screen I would like to show videos (kinda like bloomberg channel). I think it's easy to do everything in a flash movie, full-screen it and then display it in a couple of screens across campus. (as you can see it's nothing very pro).
The Actual Problem:
The only problem is that I would like to set a couple of playlists and have them play by hour of the day and always loop while in that period.
For example: Loop playlist A from 10h to 12h, playlist B from 12h to 14h, playlist C from 14h to 16h etc.
It would be very great if I could have the playlists saved on a txt file or any kind of file so I could edit them in a easy way (like an html form).
Can you guys pleeeeeeeeease help me?
Thanks for your time!

Once An Hour - Flash Cookie?
Hi,
I'm looking for help with writing the actionscript for my movie to play just once an hour in a browser.
I'm assuming I would use the local shared object to set a cookie, but not sure how to insert in the once per hour variable/scripting. Or maybe it's code to set up the cookie to expire after an hour.
I've attached the local shared object code I am using so far.
Thanks.
Attach Code
stop();
mySharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("savedObject");
_root.onLoad = function() {
if (mySharedObject.data.visited) {
_root.gotoAndStop(230);
} else {
mySharedObject.data.visited = true;
mySharedObject.flush();
result = mySharedObject.flush();
if (result) {
//all good
} else if (!result) {
//user at never -- prompt user
System.showSettings(1);
}
}
}

Flash App Disconnects From FMS After An Hour
I have developed a Flash chat for a client using FMS2. The application is used by goups of 5-15 people, who will use it for up to 2 or 3 hours in one session, sometimes even longer.
Many of our users are complaining that they consistently get disconnected after about an hour. They can usually log back in immediately. Are there any known issues with connections being lost?
A second problem I'm facing is that periodically my entire interface(AS2, SWF7) stops interacting properly. No user input(click actions, text input) is received, and several animation scripts stop updating. However, the application is still connected and new messages are received. Again, users report this behavior consistently after an hour. I know that is an extremely ambiguous problem, but I've been going crazy trying to isolate the problem, if anyone has even a guess, I'm all ears.
A few facts about the chat:
- It uses a persistent RSO to store chat history
- Chat messages are sent from client to server, and processed by server and put in the chat RSO
- User listing and info is in an RSO, which is created by ther server and modified by the clients. It is modified frequently by all clients when they type, setting a "isTyping" flag to be rendered by their name on each clients user list window
- I'm using a complex custom message renderer, which includes emoticon support and dynamic attach/removal of message clips when scrolled(to prevent application slow down as the chat history gets long).
- Our users I believe are are using somewhat older computer equipment, and are fairly minimal in computer literacy/experience.
Any help would appreciated.

Countdown To A Specific Hour?
I have used a countdown window to the opening of a new restaurant.
_http://www.wheelhousefalkirk.com/
The timer counts down to midnight but the restaurant opens at 10 am on the 18th.
Is there a way to countdown to a specific time?
Here's the Action script I'm using....
Quote:
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
var todayate = new Date ();
var currentYear = today.getFullYear();
var currentTime = today.getTime();
var targetDateate = new Date(currentYear,11,18);
var targetTime = targetDate.getTime();
var timeLeft = targetTime - currentTime;
var sec = Math.floor(timeLeft/1000);
var min = Math.floor(sec/60);
var hrs = Math.floor(min/60);
var days = Math.floor(hrs/24);
sec = string(sec % 60);
if (sec.length < 2) {
sec = "0" + sec;
}
min = string(min % 60);
if (min.length < 2 ) {
min = "0" + min;
}
hrs = string(hrs % 24);
if (hrs.length < 2 ) {
hrs = "0" + hrs;
}
days = string(days);
var counter:String = days + ":" + hrs + ":" + min + ":"+ sec;
time_txt.text = counter;
}
thanks
