[Flashcoders] Creating a XMLList in the source code
Sorry for one more probably basic XML question,
but how do you create an XMLList object? I've tried:
var list:XMLList =
user pos=0 money=123 changed=2 pool=10.20.30 whist1=10.20
whist2=100 /
user pos=2 money=-123 changed=4 mount=1.2.3
whist1=10.20.100.300 whist2=100 /
;
var list:XMLList = XMLList(
user pos=0 money=123 changed=2 pool=10.20.30 whist1=10.20
whist2=100 /
user pos=2 money=-123 changed=4 mount=1.2.3
whist1=10.20.100.300 whist2=100 /
);
var list:XMLList = XMLList('
user pos=0 money=123 changed=2 pool=10.20.30 whist1=10.20
whist2=100 /
user pos=2 money=-123 changed=4 mount=1.2.3
whist1=10.20.100.300 whist2=100 /
');
These all return errors, like for the 2nd one:
1084: Syntax error: expecting rightparen before pos.

Re: [Flashcoders] Creating a XMLList in the source code
as far as i know, xml list is really designed to be a way of accessing
multiple nodes in an xml doc so you would start with an XML object and pull
the list from there
var xml:XML =
users
user pos=0 money=123 changed=2 pool=10.20.30 whist1=10.20
whist2=100 /
user pos=2 money=-123 changed=4 mount=1.2.3
whist1=10.20.100.300 whist2=100 /
/users;
var list:XMLList = xml.user;

RE: [Flashcoders] Creating a XMLList in the source code
maybe add the new word in. the below doesn't trace any errors for me. but
i've never used XMLList before.
var myList:XMLList = new XMLList(xmlnode val='1' /node val='2' //xml);

Re: [Flashcoders] Creating a XMLList in the source code
Hi,
I don't think you can do this - you have to create a single XML node
around the list then pull the list out from that..

Re: [Flashcoders] Creating a XMLList in the source code
In this case you may use String as parameter for the constructor.
var xmlList:XMLList = new XMLList('user pos=0 money=123
changed=2 pool=10.20.30 whist1=10.20 whist2=100 /user
pos=2 money=-123 changed=4 mount=1.2.3whist1=10.20.100.300
whist2=100 /');
You can also use Boolean and Number as parameter :)

[Flashcoders] Runtime Font embedding
Hi, I am working on some runtime font embedding with Flash CS3 by loading in a SWF at runtime with font symbols defined in library, exported for Actionscript, but not for sharing. I wish to use Arabic and Chinese characters in my fonts, so I have symbols for Arial and MingLiU Bold fonts. The problem I am having is that the Arabic / Chinese characters do not seem to be included in the Font Symbol / SWF. I have tried putting a text field on stage and embedding the character ranges for each symbol, but still no luck. In my Loader, I am loading the fonts, then some XML and using Font.hasGlyphs(string) to see if my Chinese / Arabic / other characters can be rendered with any of my loaded fonts, then defaulting to system fonts if they are not. I can get that far, but I would really like to embed / anti-alias the fonts better, etc. So, is it possible to ensure that the CS3 IDE embeds a range of characters, or would I have to do the fonts using Flex / Flash Develop and [Embed] with unicode ranges to create my font swfs? Thanks in advance. Glen ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
[Flashcoders] Flash 10 - using basic RTL features without CS4
Hi, Quick question. If I am publishing with CS3, but running swfs in FP10, can I take get RTL rendering in standard text fields without using CS4 and / or the Text Layout Framework - i.e. does putting Arabic text into a dynamic text field just work, or do I have to fiddle?

[Flashcoders] AS2: blank input text field when clicked
I am working in AS2. I have an input text field I am using with an AS2 flipbook
component so users can type a page number then go to that page in the flipbook.
I want to make it so when the text field is clicked, any existing text is
removed and focus set so the user is then ready to type a page number (then
click a 'GO' button to go to that page). Flash won't let me apply code to the
text field, so I thought I could code it so if that area of the stage is
clicked it will do what I want. This is really basic coding with no classes,
external scripts, etc.; so if anybody has a really basic solution I would be
extremely grateful. This should be the sort of thing people use all the time
(an input text field that is cleared when clicked), so I assume I am not the
first to try and do this.
I thought the following might work, but Flash tells me, The class or interface
'MouseEvent' could not be loaded. So maybe I have left something out, or I am
mixing up my AS2 with AS3, or I am just approaching this all wrong.
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, blankText);
function blankText(event:MouseEvent):void {
if (mouseX = 370) {
if (mouseX = 430) {
If (mouseY = 50) {
if (mouseY = 72) {
enterPage.text = ;
}
}
}
}
}

[Flashcoders] Combining embedded and device fonts in one textfield
I have paragraphs of text which includes phonemic symbols: pretty much any character found here should be included: http://www.e-lang.co.uk/mackichan/call/pron/type.html I thought I was home and hosed, as Lucida Sans Unicode / Lucida Grande, which seems pretty standard, covers all that. The problem came when I found out that I also have to be able to display the undertie character: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tie_(typography) (HTML code #8255;) It seems that the only font on Windows that covers the undertie is Arial Unicode MS. Unfortunately, Arial Unicode MS doesn't seem to be a standard font. I don't want to have to embed Arial Unicode MS because that would really add to my file sizes, as well as restricting my ability to do things like textfield.htmlText = bbold/b text. It seems like such overkill for ONE SINGLE GLYPH. Would anyone be able to suggest any alternatives?

Re: [Flashcoders] Combining embedded and device fonts in one textfield
If you have Flash CS4 or Flex, you could embed just that one character from that font using the [Embed] syntax.

Re: [Flashcoders] Combining embedded and device fonts in one textfield
Thanks for that link, Ktu. I didn't know you could specify Unicode ranges to embed - very handy. Unfortunately, the problem still remains of having to combine an embedded font and a device font in the same textfield. As Lee Brimelow demonstrates near the end of the tutorial, the lowercase 'u' didn't display because only uppercase glyphs were embedded. It seems like if I choose to embed only the undertie character, my textfield will only be capable of displaying ... the undertie character! It seems like this is the conundrum: 1) I need to embed the undertie character, as Arial Unicode MS is not guaranteed to be found on all machines. 2) That means that any textfield which would have an undertie in it, would have to have embedFonts = true; 3) Any textfield which has embedFonts = true can only display characters included in the embedded font. Which, referring back to (1), would just be an undertie. 4) This means that if I want to have an undertie, I'd have to embed the undertie AND every single other glyph which might be used in that textfield. Uppercase, lowercase, punctuation, numbers, etc. Further, I'd have to embed separate versions for each of bold, italic, and bold-italic. All this for an undertie!!
