How To Populate A ComboBox?
OK, so i need to populate a comboBox component with an XML file. Here is how my XML reads-
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<cellPhoneText>
<downLoadRingToneText>TEXT HERE</downLoadRingToneText>
<ringtoneText>RINGTONE</ringtoneText>
<youHaveSelectedText>YOU HAVE SELECTED:</youHaveSelectedText>
<previewText>PREVIEW</previewText>
<selectYourWirelessCarrierText>
<company companyName="Company"></company>
<company companyName="Company"></company>
<company companyName="Company"></company>
<company companyName="Company"></company>
<company companyName="Company"></company>
</selectYourWirelessCarrierText>
</cellPhoneText>
Here is how my Actionscript reads-
getXML("cellphone.xml", "xmlData", nextStep);
function nextStep() {
gotoAndPlay("2");
}
//////// This is the code on frame 2 that I need to edit
downLoadRingToneText_mc.txt.autoSize = "left";
downLoadRingToneText_mc.txt.wordWrap = false;
downLoadRingToneText_mc.txt.text = xmlData.cellPhoneText.downLoadRingToneText._value;
ringtoneText_mc.txt.autoSize = "left";
ringtoneText_mc.txt.wordWrap = false;
ringtoneText_mc.txt.text = xmlData.cellPhoneText.ringtoneText._value;
youHaveSelectedText_mc.txt.autoSize = "left";
youHaveSelectedText_mc.txt.wordWrap = false;
youHaveSelectedText_mc.txt.text = xmlData.cellPhoneText.youHaveSelectedText._value;
preview_mc.previewText_mc.txt.autoSize = "left";
preview_mc.previewText_mc.txt.wordWrap = false;
preview_mc.previewText_mc.txt.text = xmlData.cellPhoneText.previewText._value;
//selectCarrier_cb.autoSize = "left";
//.wordWrap = false;
selectCarrier_cb.list = xmlData.cellPhoneText.selectYourWirelessCarrierTex t._value;
//selectCarrier_cb.selectWirelessArrow_mc._x = selectCarrier_mc.selectYourWirelessCarrierText_mc. _width+2;
OK, the comboBox name is "selectCarrier_cb". How do I populate it with the <selectYourWirelessCarrierText> node?

Populate ComboBox From Database?
On my website, I want to have a Flash ComboBox menu of countries, and when a country from the menu is selected, the browser (GetURL) goes to a specified page.
I have an Access database that lists the countries. Using ASP, how do I populate the Flash ComboBox menu from that database? I want to pull out the list of country names from the database and have them appear in the ComboBox menu.
How do I do that? (I have no clue and I haven't been able to find a tutorial on it.)
Some background info: The site can run ASP and Access. I am using the ComboBox UI component in MX.
Any help you can offer is greatly appreciated! Thanks!!

[as3] Populate A Combobox From External Xml?
Howdy
What I have atm is a combobox with types of products in it. Thanks to arsenik I've finally gotten to the next frame (whoo). My question now is, how do I populate a new combobox using the product names from an external xml file?
I've already loaded the xml file so I don't need that code.
What I want is for the names of the products in the label and the child number in the data field (product.type.name[n] - I want n in the data field).
Has been driving me mad for nearly two days! (have been working on this while trying to get the previous frame to work right as well)

Populate Array From ComboBox
Hi,
I'm currently working on a project where I have a user defined list of urls which is saved in a local SO. When the movie is loaded the ComboBox is populated with the values from the SO (Stored as array inside SO).
I want to give users the option to remove items from this list. So far I have managed to remove the selected item from the combo box, clear out the SO and loop the remaining ComboBox items, but, when I try and load these item into an array to parse back to the SO, the array is created and creates the correct amount of elements, but, each element is populated with only the data from the 0 index item of the ComboBox. Anyone got any ideas? :? :? :?
My code so far: (This sits inside a button component and is invoked onClick)
_root.ComboBox.removeItemAt(_root.ComboBox.selectedIndex);
_root.ComboBox.selectedIndex = 0;
_root.local_data.clear();
var dataArray = new Array();
newFeed = new Object();
for (var i=0; i<_root.ComboBox.length; i++) {
newFeed.site = _root.ComboBox.getItemAt(i).data;
newFeed.siteurl = _root.ComboBox.getItemAt(i).label;
dataArray.push(newFeed);
}
_root.local_data.data.myList = dataArray;
_root.local_data.flush();
Thanks in advance.

Populate Both Data And Labels Into ComboBox
How can I tell the comboBox through ActionScript what its Data is (i.e., 0,1,2,3,...) and to function based on that and still load Labels in though Script also? (All examples I've found function on the Label.)
I have created a slide show that uses a Flash MX comboBox as a jump menu. It also has next and previous buttons to advance one slide at a time. It works fine if I load the Labels and Data in the Properties Inspector.
I can successfully populate the comboBox using ActionScript with Labels, but I want to add the ActionScript so it will function based on Data 0,1,2,3,4,... (rather than function based on the Label title).
Here's my code:
slideTitles = "Slide 1|Slide 2|Slide 3";
theSlideTitles = slideTitles.split("|");
//Populate Combo Box
for (i=0; i<theSlideTitles.length; i++) {
comboBox.addItemAt(i, theSlideTitles[i], theSlideTitles[i]);
}
// Sort the List
comboBox.sortItemsBy("Label", "ASC");
NEED HELP ON CODE AROUND HERE.
function jump() {
theItem = comboBox.getSelectedIndex();
theValue = comboBox.getValue(theItem);
if (theValue == 0) {
gotoAndStop("L1");
slideNumber = "Slide "+1;
loadMovie("movie.swf", 1);
Thanks for any help.

Populate Flash2004Pro ComboBox With XML String
Hi,
I have a combobox, and an XML string (which comes from a web service):
code:
<countries><country label="Andorra" data="37" /><country label="Austria " data="38" /><country label="Belgium" data="39" /><country label="Bulgaria" data="40" /><country label="Croatia" data="41" /><country label="Cyprus" data="42" /><country label="Czech Republic" data="43" /><countries>
.... etc
I want to bind the combobox to the XML string. How do I go about this. I know that I can iterate through the XML nodes and use the addItem method, but I believe that this is slower than binding to a dataset.
Any help appreciated.

Populate ComboBox Inside AttachedMovie?
I can NOT seem to target my comboBoxes that are inside a movieClip that is being attached to the stage from the library.
Is this a known bug or issue?..I can populate my comboBox anywhere else..even nested inside other movieClips (created at authoring time)..
Is there a way to "pause" your code..after I attach the clips to the stage..and before I loop through my XML to populate the combo boxes??
the reason I ask..is I have been searching & searching...and I stumbled upon a thread that stated he thought the combo boxes were created/initialized fast enough to be populated.... possible scenario??
can anyone else sucessfully populate a comboBox (externally)inside of a clip you attach to the stage from the library?
Thanks..

How To Populate A ComboBox Properly With Flash Remoting
Hi
Got a question about ComboBox, I am populating a ComboBox with Flash Remoting. Currently I want to pull a Name column from a database. Right now I am populating a dataset. The ComboBox pulls from the dataset. However the Combobox displays the Name column plus two other columns.
How can I send out from the dataset just the Name Column to the ComboBox?
I include some code if it helps.
Thank you
Code:
#include "NetServices.as"
var frGatewayURL = "http://localhost/flashremoting/gateway.aspx";
var frServiceName = "test";
this.onLoad = function() {
NetServices.setDefaultGatewayUrl(frGatewayURL);
var frConnection = NetServices.createGatewayConnection();
var frService = frConnection.getService(frServiceName, this);
frService.getProjects();
}
function getProjects_Result(result) {
//projects is a dataset
projects.dataProvider = result;
}
function getProjects_Status(error) {
trace("-------- Remoting Error ---------");
this.type_txt = error.type;
this.desc_txt = error.type;
trace(error.type);

return this.myTopDepth;
} else {

return this.myTopDepth;

//object registration

Form To Populate SQL DB?
Hi:
I have been tasked with creating an online course evaluation form. This form will be used by our client students to give us feedback on the courses they take with us.
I have two needs:
ONSITE - I need a good tutorial on how to create a form in Flash that will populate a SQL DB. Students will complete the form when onsite at our HQ. This form will be on our intranet and will directly feed the SQL DB.
OFFSITE - OK. This is the more challenging issue. Our trainers tell us that many of our clients (believe it or not) do not have or allow internet access to the PCs used for training at their site. So, the students cannot use our online form (even though we could put it on the internet).
Can I modify the Flash form used for onsite, for the offsite? The trainer would install the file and the Flash plug-in if needed on the client's PC. The student would complete the form and the Flash form would store their responses to their local PC. The trainer would then copy the output file to a jump drive. When the trainer returns to HQ, he/she would need to be able to import those responses to the SQL DB.
How can I do this and make it relatively simple for the trainer?
Thanks,
Loren

Populate Arrays Dynamically?
I have a 3d array which I need to populate. i have 3 sections each with 3 pages, each with 3 dynamic text boxes.
section - new Array();
page = new Array();
elements = new Array();
section = page[elements[x]];
so i can reference any value eg
// reference the 3rd text box on page 2 of section 1 =
textvalue = section[0][1][2];
my problem is the setting up of the arrays and input text to set a value to the 3d array:
inputtext = _root.section[page[element[1]]];
does not work.
Can anybody suggest a way to do this dynamically ?
Thanks

How Do I Populate A Chart From Components W MX
I have an MX movie with variables: Yr1, Yr2, Yr3.... and Sum1, Sum2, Sum3....
I want to show these values in a chart from Charting Components
I want to set the Chart xAxis Labels to Yr1,... and the Chart y Values to Sum1,...
My chart instance is named MyChart.
Obviously in the parameters section I can hardcode these labels and data values but I want them dynamic.
===============================================
The following works for setting other attributes:
MyTitle="My Own Chart"
MyChart.setChartTitle(MyTitle);
or
MyChart.setChartTitle("My Own Chart");
similarly:
MyChart.setxAxisTitle("Years")
================================================
but I haven't figured out how to populate the meat of the chart.
These don't work:
MyChart.setValueSource(Sum1,Sum2....)
or
var ArrValues[Sum1,Sum2...]
MyChart.setValueSource(ArrValues)
or
MyChart.setDataProvider(ArrValues)
Any Help?

How To Populate The TREE Component?
I am trying to dynamically populate the tree component either by using XML or PHP. I am using Flash MX 2004 Pro but ideally I am looking for a solution to the original FTree component(version 1 architecture) instead of the new Tree component that comes with MX 2004 but I'll take anything I can get.
Does it have anything to do with setDataProvider ???

What I am trying to achieve is to populate 8 instances of orange_mc, 6 instances of pear_mc etc. etc. and drag and drop them over different target area. I am thinking that the trace should give me the following: orange_mc1, orange_mc2, orange_mc3 etc. Neither this nor the drag is working. What am I missing? Want to repeat this for all items in the array.
code:
var fruit:Array = new Array();
fruit[0] = "orange_mc";
fruit[1] = "pear_mc";
fruit[2] = "apple_mc";
fruit[3] = "banana_mc";
fruit[4] = "kiwi_mc";
var newOrange
for (var i=0; i<8; i++){
newOrange[i] = newOrange["orange_mc", + i];
trace(newOrange);
_root.newOrange.onPress=function() {
this.startDrag();
}
}

Populate Array From A Database?
can anyone help me figure out how to populate an array based on a flash search sent to ASP and from ASP to a MS Access database... like a set of instructions..
ex. you search for step 2 to 5. flash sends the variables 2 and 5 to the ASP, asp searches in the database for the steps, the steps return (2,3,4,5) to asp and somehow display some instructions to flash to execute the array in that order.
i might be totally off by the logical flow, could someone help me out? thanks!

Combo Box Populate With PHP Question.
I have a PHP page which gives me this information.
pics=6&pic1=image/seaside1.jpg&pic2=image/seaside2.jpg&pic3=image/seaside3.jpg&pic4=image/seaside4.jpg&pic5=image/seaside5.jpg&pic6=image/stjoseph1.jpg&var=pics=6&pic1=image/seaside1.jpg&pic2=image/seaside2.jpg&pic3=image/seaside3.jpg&pic4=image/seaside4.jpg&pic5=image/seaside5.jpg&pic6=image/stjoseph1.jpg
I would like a combo box to show me a list of the items and then upload the image in flash. I placed a combo box on the stage and called it combo. I somehow need it to list "seaside1.jpg", "seaside2.jpg" . . . . and so on. Then upload that image. Here is all that I have so far. Whats next?
combo.addItem("-- select image --");
loadVariablesNum("image/jpeegs.php", 0, "POST");

Trying To Populate Datagrid, With Xml, From Within Class
Don't know if this is possible, but I would like to populate a datagrid that is on the stage with some loaded xml, but I would also like to keep it inside of a class rather than having the functions reside in the fla. Here is my stab at it that obviously isn't working.
code: class Tester extends MovieClip {
public function Tester() {
doAction();
}
private function doAction():Void {
makeBox("test3.xml");
}
private function makeBox(path:String):Void {
var xml:XML = new XML();
xml.ignoreWhite = true;
xml.onLoad = function() {
var arr:Array = new Array();
for (var node:XMLNode = xml.firstChild.firstChild; node != null; node=node.nextSibling) {
arr.push(node.firstChild.nodeValue);
}
arr.sort();
trace(arr);
for (var i = 0; i<arr.length; ++i) {
_parent.datagrid1.addItem({name:arr[i]});
}
xml.load(path);
};
}
}
Here is the xml:
PHP Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<people>
<person>Joe Lawyer1</person>
<person>Joe Lawyer2</person>
<person>Joe Lawyer3</person>
<person>Joe Lawyer4</person>
<person>Joe Lawyer5</person>
<person>Joe Lawyer6</person>
<person>Joe Lawyer7</person>
</people>
I have a working version of basically the same code that exists on a first frame of a fla. The datagrid populates correctly and the trace shows up, but I would instead like to keep it all inside of a class because I ultimately would like to pass different paths to seperate xml files dynamically.
Thanks for any advice!

Populate Cs3 Datagrid From Object
Hi,
In AS2 I would populate a datagrid by setting an object (returned from a coldfusion query using flash remoting) to the dataprovider. In AS3 I can only seem to populate from an array. Eg the following doesn't work:
Code:
// aDg is a datagrid
private function getSitesResultListener(e:Event):void
{
trace(e.target.getSitesResult); // [object Object]
addChild(aDg);
aDg.dataProvider = new DataProvider(e.target.getSitesResult);
}
/* The above give the following error:
TypeError: Error: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert [object Object] to Array or DataProvider.
at fl.data::DataProvider/fl.data:DataProvider::getDataFromObject()
at fl.data::DataProvider$iinit()
at Base/::getSitesResultListener()
at flash.events::EventDispatcher/flash.events:EventDispatcher::dispatchEventFunction()
at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEvent()
at classes::RemoteConn/::sitesResponder()
*/
Am I right in thinking that the AS3 datagrid no longer accepts an object as it's dataprovider?
If so, is there a way around this? If anyone can offer some advice or point me to a tuturial of populating the cs3 datagrid from a query it would be appreciated (the only tutorials I can find describe how to populate from a manually created array or an xml file).
Thanks
Robin.

[F8] Can't Populate Array - Undefined
Hello,
I've been trying to make a word scramble function that selects a random strings from "wordArray", removes spaces, scrambles the text, and repopulates that scrambled text in to "scrambledArray".
But for whatever reason, the scrambledArray comes up undefined when I trace it.
What am I doing wrong? I've checked and rechecked my code but can't figure this out at all! Starting to lose my mind over this. I've been at it for the past 6 hours
This is the exact code i'm using:
PHP Code:
var wordArray:Array = new Array("Words with spaces", "Different words", "single", "more words with spaces", "another string with spaces");
var scrambledArray:Array;
var tempString2:Array;
var tempString3:Array;
//
function scrambleWord():Void{
//select random string from array
n = Math.floor(Math.random()*wordArray.length);
tempString = wordArray[n];
trace("word: "+tempString);
//remove spaces
tempString2 = tempString.split(" ").join("");
tempString3 = tempString2.split("");
//scramble words
duration = tempString3.length;
for(i=0; i<duration; i++){
r = Math.floor(Math.random()*tempString3.length);
t = tempString3.splice(r,1);
trace("t: "+t);
scrambledArray.push(t);
}
trace("scrambledArray: "+scrambledArray)
}
scrambleWord();
Can someone please shed some light on this? Pretty please?
P.S. using flash 8

Populate Dynamic Textfield
Hey,
I'm having some problems populating a dynamic text field with data from an XML document. I've got my .fla file reading my XML document just fine and can do a trace() and view what I have in the XML. What I can't seem to figure out is how to assign those values into a dynamic textfield I have placed on the stage. If it helps, I have placed the textfield into a movieclip on the stage. Any suggestions?

[F8] Using Xml To Populate Dynamic Text Box
I have created a video player that reads in the video titles and urls from an xml file. The titles are displayed in a list box component. That part works just fine. What I am trying to do is include a caption about each video which is displayed in a dynamic text box called captions_txt. The caption is an attribute of the <video> element in the xml file. The caption need to change as different video are selected.
Here is a section of the xml.
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<videos>
<video caption="This is the first caption" title="The Delta Farm Tour" url="video_library/video_1.flv" />
<video caption="This is the second caption" title="The Delta Farm Tour pt 2 " url="video_library/video_2.flv" />
</videos>
Here is what I have now:
Code:
var videoXML:XML = new XML();
videoXML.ignoreWhite = true;
var videos:Array = new Array();
var captions:Array = new Array();
videoXML.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
videos = videoXML.firstChild.childNodes;
for (i=0;i<videos.length;i++){
videoList.addItem(videos[i].attributes.title,videos[i].attributes.url);
}
videoList.selectedIndex = 0;
captions_txt.text = videos[i].attributes.caption;
}
else
{
videoList.addItem("Could not load videos");
}
}
videoXML.load("hc_vid_playlist.xml");
The text box captions_txt comes up as undefined as is. Where is/are my errors?

Getting XML To Populate Dynamic Fields
I've done some looking around and most of the tutorials I find on the net have to do with using the XML components to create lists of data or dropdowns or etc.
All I want to do with the current XML that I'm working with is to have it display text, populate links, and show images. Almost no interactivity (excepting three links).
Could someone direct me where to go from here?
Here's the code I've got:
Code:
// The first step is to activate the XML object
kpxml = new XML();
/*
With the XML Object now active you must now load an XML foramtted document.
Any DTD or XLS formatting will be ignored.
*/
kpxml.onLoad = myLoad;
kpxml.load("kpts.xml");
// Before proceeding to far into the program, make sure the XML document has loaded
// Extract information from the XML file
function myLoad(ok) {
if (ok == true) {
Publish(this.firstChild);
}
}
function Publish(kpXMLNode) {
if (kpXMLNode.nodeName == "datapacket") {
datapacket = kpXMLNode.firstChild;

features = datapacket.firstChild;

Ext. Variables To Populate SharedObjects
I was wondering if it was possible to save variables in a .txt to populate information to a SharedObject. It would be easier for me to update the text file instead of publishing a new swf. This is the code I used:
loadVariables("URLs.txt","");
user_visit = SharedObject.getLocal("user");
if(user_visit.data.month == Month) {
gotoAndPlay("s1a");
}
else {
user_visit.data.month = Month;
}
But when I change Month in the .txt the swf doesn't change. If I was to do it in the swf the code works as it should. Any suggestions?
Thanks,

Populate List Of Buttons
Hi folks,
I'm currently developing an XML based interactive map project using AS2, with search feature.
The idea is, when a user searches and found multiple results, all the results are displayed in clickable list of buttons ( or movie clips with buttons ) which populated dynamically by flash.
Example :
Search Results for keywords : "Restaurant"
1. (some restaurant1's name) - (some street address1) - Click here for details
2. (some restaurant2's name) - (some street address2) - Click here for details
3. ...
Results are stored in array, but i don't have any idea how to populate these list of buttons ( or movieclips) from the array.
So, any idea what methods or ideas should I use to make it happens ?
Sorry for my bad English, Great thanks in advance.

Best Populate Method Flash Mx?
Hi all , I have followed Jesse's tut on loading and parsing xml into flash. I am now looking at the best way to duplicate and then populate a movie clip with info from an xml. I have 2 layers on the main time line the first contains the actions to parse the xml file find the values and also the attributes. The second layer contains an MC called targetClip
Here is my code so far:
Code:
picsMenu_xml = new XML();
picsMenu_xml.ignoreWhite = true;
picsMenu_xml.onLoad = function(sucess) {
if (sucess) {
processMenu(picsMenu_xml);
}
};
// Load up the XML file into Flash
picsMenu_xml.load('xml/mmsmenu.xml');
// This is the function that will be called when
// our XML document is loaded succesfully
function processMenu(picsMenu_xml) {
for (var n = 0; n<PicsMenu_xml.firstChild.childNodes.length; n++) {
trace(picsMenu_xml.firstChild.childNodes[n].firstChild.nodeValue);
trace(picsMenu_xml.firstChild.childNodes[n].attributes.URL);
}
}
I was thinking of using a for while loop to attach the attribute URL & the value of the node in the order its been parsed to a duplicate of the targetClip MC. Is this an efficient way of population or should I be looking at another method????
Any help is much appreciated.
Cheers:-)

Populate A Table Using A Graphic.
Is it possible to graphically populate a table? Here is what I trying to do. I have a graphic of a cabinet with shelves and slot on each shelf. The cabinet is really a table with rows and slot as data fields.
The field name for the cabinet table would look like this: row, slot, location( which would be the combination of cabinet, row and slot). An example of data in each field would be:
Cabinet=A, Row=01, Slot =02 (or any value from 1-20)and Location would be A0102 for the single slot in the second position on row 1, in case A.
What I would like to do is query another table for information, let's call this query StreetAddress, query the table for a Street Number or Name and have it return all the addresses in the table for that street. Now I want to point to a location on the graphic and have those StreetAddresses populate the cabinet table in the row at the slot picked with the first StreetAddress and populate the next slots consecutive with the other StreetAddresses from the query.
I have looked a couple of FLASH application that come close to doing this, but my big problem is that not all of the StreetAddresses are consecutive. In other words there maybe queries that result in twenty StreetAddresses, but only 10 go in Cabinet A and there others go in cabinet B. Is there away to select from the graphic those that you want to move after they have been inserted.
I way over my head with this concept, can FLASH do this using COLDFUSION??

Dynamically Populate TileList With MCs
Hi,
i'm loading an undefined number of imagepaths from a xmlfile.
I want to load these images each into a dynamically generated mc(based on a master/class/template), and populate a TileList component with these mc's.
After hours of searching and testing, i just can't figure out, how this can be done in AS3...
Basic problem is to make the mc's with iteration in their names.
Second is to get the Images inside the mc's.
Since i have tried 42 versions of code, i don't know which sample is closest to the solution that i should post here....
Any suggestions, hints, solutions appreciated
Thanks in advance!
