You have to cast the variable as a String before the concatination or the
two values might be incompatable

Would fail if the substring is found farther than the beginning.
Should be checked for being == 0 eventually.

var compareBranch:String = "index/nav/home/whatever/else";

if (compareBranch.indexOf(event.validBranch) > -1)

i ended up using a slice, bit messy but worked.

function onAfterGoto(event:GaiaEvent):void {
var subString:String;
subString=event.validBranch;
trace("subslice = "+ subString.slice( 13 )
);
trace("current branch = "+
event.validBranch);

if ((nav2.numChildren < 0) &&
(event.validBranch == ("index/nav/his"+ subString.slice(13 {
createSubNavhis();
TweenMax.to(menuBar, 0.25, {x:-270,
ease:Bounce.easeInOut});
createBackButton();
}

[Flashcoders] how do i say "string" + anything?

2009-09-23 Thread thomas horner 
i've built a global nav but now when it comes to detecting the current page
and updating the  subnav accordingly i've got a little stuck, i think im
nearly there, 

 

what i need  to know if how to say  is ;   if(event.validBranch ==
"index/nav/his" + "anything else that might follow"){

 

 

basically how  do i say  "index/nav/his" + "anything"){  

 

 

 

 

 

function onAfterGoto(event:GaiaEvent):void {

trace("current branch = "+
event.validBranch);

if(event.validBranch ==
"index/nav/his++"){

 
createSubNavhis();

 
TweenMax.to(menuBar, 0.25, {x:-270, ease:Bounce.easeInOut});

 
createBackButton()

}



}
