Hi David, Looks like you're constructing the Timer wth a delay: Timer <http://127.0.0.1:52378/help/topic/com.adobe.flexbuilder.help/langref/fl\ ash/utils/Timer.html#Timer()> (delay:Number <http://127.0.0.1:52378/help/topic/com.adobe.flexbuilder.help/langref/Nu\ mber.html> , repeatCount:int <http://127.0.0.1:52378/help/topic/com.adobe.flexbuilder.help/langref/in\ t.html> = 0)
Try var myTimer:Timer = new Timer(0.valuesMilliseconds); or myTimer.repeatCount = valuesMilliseconds; -TH --- In [email protected], "sailorsea21" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hey everyone, I have a value of 30000 stored in a MySQL database. > > I call this value and import it in flex via HTTPService (PHP & XML): > > <mx:HTTPService url="value.php" method="POST" id="rate" > useProxy="false" result="getRate(event)"/> > > > I now have a timer: > var myTimer:Timer = new Timer(30000); > > > Can I replace the hard-coded value of "30000" with the value that is > stored in my database? > > This is my script: > > [Bindable] > public var valuesMilliseconds:int; > > private function getRate(event:ResultEvent):void > { > valuesMilliseconds = event.result.database.row.Refresh_Rate; > } > > > I tried the following but it didn't work: > > var myTimer:Timer = new Timer(valuesMilliseconds); > > Thanks. > > -David >
