The AS3 operators are documented here:
http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/langref/operators.html For information about AS3 syntax, the language-elements section of the language reference is a good place to start: http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/langref/language-elements.html And for finding a match within a comma-separated String see below: http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/docs/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp .htm?href=00001875.html Paul ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of nasawebguy Sent: Wednesday, February 14, 2007 9:06 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [flexcoders] Re: filter AS syntax question Thanks Tom! But I get this error 1084: Syntax error: expecting rightparen before bitwisenot in the return line below... private function filterByProduct( item:Object ) : Boolean { var ProductItem:Object = productgrid.selectedItem; if( ProductItem == null ) return false; return(ProductItem.Product == item.Product || ProductItem.Product ~= item.RelatedProducts ); } Is it a syntax issue? Or something else? I have a couple books, like actionscript cookbook, and searched many sites, but nothing helps with basic AS 3.0 syntax!! Makes for an inefficient learning process. So, I really do appreciate your help!
