A Sweet Lady Needs Help...

Oh, Sweet Sweet Arrays ....
Ok, I admit it, I am hooked to Sudoku, but more to programming than to playing.

Therefore, I need a system to generate exact fieldnames and I decided to go for a system containing letters and numbers.


Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
// Boxbezeichnung;
box = new Array;
box[0] = "A";
box[1] = "B";
box[2] = "C";
box[3] = "D";
box[4] = "E";
box[5] = "F";
box[6] = "G";
box[7] = "H";
box[8] = "I";
// Reihenbezeichnung;
field = new Array;
field[0] = 1;
field[1] = 2;
field[2] = 3;
field[3] = 4;
field[4] = 5;
field[5] = 6;
field[6] = 7;
field[7] = 8;
field[8] = 9;
// Erstellung der Feldnamen;
for (z=0; z<9; z++) {
for (y=0; y<9; y++) {
name = new Array;
numero = new String(box[z] + field[y]);
name.push(numero);
trace (numero);
}
}
}
The code is on an otherwise empty MC.

So, this is what it shall do: The boxes shall be called "A1", "A2" ... "A9", "B1" ... till up to "I9". If you perform the script, the trace shows you perfectly, how I want to have it. It ends up with a total of 81 values.

The problem is, when the for-Loop is finished, there is only one value in the name-Array instead of 81 - the last. But I want to have them all, starting with "A1". How can I achieve this?

Is there another, maybe better way to create this array?

name[0][0] = name[box[0]] [field[0]] = equivalent to A1
name[0][1] = name[box[0]] [field[1]] = equivalent to A2
...
name[9][9] = name[box[9]] [field[9]] = equivalent to I9


Thanks for your help in advance.

The Fat Lady Should Be Singing Any Time Now
Ok,,, so I just about , nearly , almost, close but no cigar yet,,, FINNISHED MY FLASH MOVIE THINGY.....

As well as stunning animation and deftifying graphics,,,not to mentions consistantly good spelling,,,, it has forms, forms,, and afew more forms. so here is(are) my question(s);

1. what is the minimum good deal i would expect from a host,,, considering that forms will be filled in and sent via some script(any suggestions) dealt with by the server and then sent to my email with the results. the movie is abou 700kb, so the web space doesnt need to be any less then 10 megs,,,

2. I will be expecting alot of traffic,,, so bandwith or access has to be good....

3. (psycic question)

4. any good, short,, straight to the point books that will tell me about any of the above?

5. how do i get a multipage form to print out. If i have a form spanning 5 pages,, but the results could be shown in 1 which can then be printed.

any help is appreciated,,, and then the fat lady can truelly sing with heaving buzzoms

Understanding Valmont's Movie: Bonaparte And The Lady Bug
Hi Everyone,

I really like Valmont's ladybug movie (http://www.flashkit.com/movies/Anima...1356/index.php) and am trying to modify it for the Contact page in my site (http://jon8.us/portfolio/).

I have been trying to grasp all the code, but must admit it is quite complicated. I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction.

The trouble I am having is that the flying instance is visible (in the lower right corner) when the walking instance is doing his thing.

Any insight would be very very much appreciated.

Thanks to anyone interested!

Lady And Gentlemen, I Have A Flash Player Version
Last edited by traden : 2004-05-02 at 10:09.
























Now that we have the wonderful AS2.0 available at our findertips, and that we can still export as flash 6 since it gets compiled down to AS 1.0(avoiding player 7 code (try...catch etc)) life is good. But I have a question, ive triple checked my code, and everything is being exported as Flash 6(10 flas, 30 some classes), but wait, when I get someone to view the site with flash 6 it no work, they had to upgrade to 7, can anyone tell be the exact version it exports to when you specify AS2.0 and flash 6 (i know AS2.0 components is 6.67, but im sticking with AS1.0 comps)

Ok, I've hit this issue in the past with other flash related project, specially exporting from a mac then trying to view on a pc and getting a request to update the player...no worries, i just need to know


thanks

It Would Be So Sweet...
If you could load fonts into flash externally at runtime. I haven't seen it done yet. I mean is there a way to dynamically load fonts that haven't been embedded and compiled? I wonder if there is anyone who has an open source font format that can be read from server side? Sounds like a cool project.

Sweet Graphics..... How Are They Done?
Hi people.

This is just a quick query, but something that has been bugging me.

As always within the Flash community, there are numerous georgous sites always going live!

One such site is http://www.realityslip.com

How do they get those nice smooth blends on the boxes, even on just the Homepage.

I realise that it is possible to create gradients in Flash, but theirs just seem so smooth, I can never get anywhere near that!

OR, am I looking into this too much, are the boxes just JPEGS created in Photoshop/Fireworks, and inserted into Flash with animations on the text on top?

If it is possible to do this in Flash, could someone direct me to a tutorial/book on how to get such smooth subtle graphics.

Cheers

The Whole Sweet Package
Okay, I have always been a person that was very intuitive and outspoken but now in a world no longer seperated by distance I have decided to make a website. Given I have a made a few before, and have had many people tell me they were very good, but I have been seeing these flash/animated websites with awsome intros and incredible naigation and layouts. So I was wondering if you could NAME every program/application that I would need to make one of these awsome sites. Not just free ones either, I am willing to pay any amount.

Pretty Sweet
I guess if you have cleared all your intervals this is a nice way to reinitialize an swf.
Code:
loadMovieNum(this._url,0);

Sweet Frame Scrolling
My flash brethren,

http://stevenegordon.com/animation.html (or as seen in attachment) has a novel "horizontal scrolling" feature flowing through its middle HTML frame. How are they forcing the horizontal scroll? Is it done in flash or HTML? Please advise. I need to create an extended timeline ... and it would absolutely ROCK with this effect.

Thanks!

Sweet Jesus What Happend To My Flv Files
I'm about to wet myself. Seriously..... I spent a bunch of time updating a variety of things on my .fla file and then did a test export before I was set to publish. Much to my ultimate dismay in the test export every single .fla file is gone!!! WTF! In every single scene and I only fixed stuff on about three pages. What happend. Did I turn some kind of crazy setting on that's called "freak the heck outta the new kid on the block by not putting any flv files in the test export"? I can still see them all in the working file!!!
Please flash gods tell me I can fix this easily.

Sweet Blog For All Flash Developers
Hey, I made a blog to help out other flash developers. I had a difficult time when I was first learning flash, and I've had a lot of help from people in various forums (especially this one). This is my way of saying thank you! I update this everyday with tips, tricks, and just general stuff about flash and actionscript 3.0. Enjoy!

Sweet Jesus Help? Resize And Expanding Issues
I'm trying to produce a dynamic timeline that expands horizontally when you click on a year to allow you to drill down through the years. Can anyone give me an idea as to where to start?

I am also interested in creating an effect similar to that used on the egomedia site whereby they scale the background swf to full screen yet keep the objects at 100% of their original sizes (they don't scale up with the rest of the movie). Can anyone give me any ideas, or starting reference points please.

Super-sweet Listbox-related Question
I'm using Flash MX.

Okay, here's the scenario. I have myself a list of pieces of writing (prose, poetry, etc.), and a dynamic textbox. Each item in the list will have a corresponding external text file. My lifelong dream is to somehow have each item in the listbox display its corresponding external text file in the dynamic text box that is next to the list, when the list item is clicked and released. I'm stumped. Is there a way to do this, or do I need to come up with some other kind of navigation system?
