Hello :) It's more easy to use JSON ? Xml is more difficult in AS2 ?
EKA+ :) 2007/5/5, Muzak <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Dump the textfile idea and use XML instead, which is far better suited for stuff like menu's. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <menu> <item label="about us" /> <item label="news" /> <item label="portfolio"> <sub label="branding" /> <sub label="interactives" /> <sub label="marks" /> </item> </menu> regards, Muzak ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Trentini" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com> Sent: Saturday, May 05, 2007 8:56 AM Subject: [Flashcoders] LoadVars array.length problem > Hello, > > I am trying to generate two separate menus dynamically and populated by the content of tow text files. > > The text files have the following info. > > menuItems.txt contains: > > &var1=about us& > &var2=news& > &var3=portfolio& etc. > > submenuItems.txt contains: > &var1=branding& > &var2=interactives& > &var3=marks& etc. > > these will be updateable files with any numbers of elements added to or removed from. > > > I have this code at the root level: > > menuLoadVars = new LoadVars(); > menuLoadVars.load("menuItems.txt"); > > subMenuLoadVars = new LoadVars(); > subMenuLoadVars.load("submenuItems.txt"); > > How can I generate an array that only contains the values of each item if I don't know the length of the text file? > > I have tried: > > menuItems.onLoad = function(){ > > for(i=0; i<menuItems.length; i++){ > trace(menuItemds[i]); > > } > > } > > but the menuItems.length is undefined and does not return a value. > > What can I do instead? > > Any tip would be a big help. > Thanks > _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
