[flexcoders] Update Insert via DataServices

2010-05-26 Thread Stephen
If I have list a table in a datagrid using data services in flex 4 how do I 
update insert or delete in that datagrid/table. Usually I use HTTPServices so 
have a array collection to work with but there is no array collection this 
time. all i have is an obj:Object containing the insert or update data?

 You would use the dataservice.addItem() and dataService.deleteItem()

[flexcoders] Dynamic DropDownList Default Setting Problem

This is a Flex 4 problem.

the EngineerId.

I have tried to access the values of the dropdown with no louk either, I feel 
like I'm getting no where, any help is much appreciated.

 You'll need to look through the ArrayCollection and get either the index or 
 the actual item with that id so that you can set the selected item/index.





[flexcoders] DropDownList Data Services

2010-06-06 Thread Stephen
I am populating a datagrid with data from database using Zend Data Services, I 
then select to amend a line of the datagrid using a master detail form. One of 
the fields is an index to another table and thus I need to use a DropDownList 
how do I set the drop down list to what the current setting is so I can then 
present the form for change.

mx:FormItem label=Name:
s:DropDownList width=200 id=dropDownList 
creationComplete=dropDownList_creationCompleteHandler(event) 
labelField=ProductName
s:AsyncListView list={getAllDisp_product_nameResult.lastResult}/
/s:DropDownList
/mx:FormItem

This is how I believe I would read the data for the drop down list, how would I 
set it to default to a specific setting?

[flexcoders] CallResponder

2010-06-22 Thread Stephen
Is it possible to get feedback when a call reponder has updated a row in the 
database. I managed to get an addition to work probably because it had to 
return a key as a result. But update wont return a result so far as I have 
tried.

All their seems to have is ACTIVE, DEACTIVE, FAULT  RESULT none of which fires 
when updating.

I can not bind to the datagrid for update as its a join, I can only update a 
table, when I do I need to know when it has been done so that I can call an 
update on the join to refresh the datagrid.

- Any help?

[flexcoders] PHP Data Service

2010-07-31 Thread Stephen
I have copied the getView_ByID function and recoded the copy to filter by a 
specific field rather than the ID by changing the following...

public function getView_heatingByID($itemID) {
-to-
public function getView_heatingByName($itemID) {

$stmt = mysqli_prepare($this-connection, SELECT * FROM $this-tablename where 
heating_id=?);
-to-
$stmt = mysqli_prepare($this-connection, SELECT * FROM $this-tablename where 
heating_name=?)

mysqli_stmt_bind_param($stmt, 'i', $itemID);
-to-
mysqli_stmt_bind_param($stmt, 's', $itemID);

...and the service runs fine as far as the Test goes with in Flash Builder 4's 
Test Operation panel.

-But-

The callResponder does not return a ValueObject like it would if I had simply 
requested it by using service.getView_heatingByID?

s:CallResponder id=getView_heatingByNameResult result=callResponder2();/

protected function callResponder2():void
{
var x:Object = getView_heatingByNameResult.lastResult;
view_heating = x as View_heating;
}

What I should get is...

valueObjects.View_heating (@113479e9)   
[inherited] 
_115792uid  view_heatingRPCDataManager:#:1
_1464461640heating_name Forced Air

mx.utils.ObjectProxy (@af3bf29) 
dispatcher  flash.events.EventDispatcher (@af3bf71)

heating_id  1   
heating_nameForced Air
_id null

Can someone explaine how I can get the valueObject as this object can not be 
force to conform to a valueObject as I have tried with no luck.

Thanks for any help recieved, this one is a puzzler!

[flexcoders] Re: PHP Data Service

2010-07-31 Thread Stephen
Further to my previous post I have noticed a slight diffrence in the returned 
data from the service.

This object was returned by var_dump($o-getView_heatingByID(2));
and works.

object(stdClass)#4 (2) {
  [heating_id]=
  int(2)
  [heating_name]=
  string(12) Radient Heat
}

While this object was returned by var_dump($o-getView_heatingByName('Radient 
Heat')); 
and does not work?

object(stdClass)#3 (2) {
  [heating_id]=
  int(2)
  [heating_name]=
  string(12) Radient Heat
}

Whats going on here is my code...

public function getView_heatingByName($itemID) {

$stmt = mysqli_prepare($this-connection, SELECT * FROM $this-tablename where 
heating_name=?);
$this-throwExceptionOnError();

mysqli_stmt_bind_param($stmt, 's', $itemID);
$this-throwExceptionOnError();

mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt);
$this-throwExceptionOnError();

mysqli_stmt_bind_result($stmt, $row-heating_id, $row-heating_name);

if(mysqli_stmt_fetch($stmt)) {
return $row;
} else {
return null;

Apparently this is due to loss of data management and can be corrected by going

out by a process of elimination hope it saves some one some time.

[flexcoders] Data Management

2010-08-11 Thread Stephen
If I create two tables and wish to display attributes from both and I join 
these tables together and display the results everything is fine.

If I then need to change some of this data by updating or deleting from one of 
the tables (as update and delete wont work for the joined tables) I get a 
conflict error...

Local item has changes to properties that conflict with remote change.

instructing that my local joined table (that I read in from the database) is 
now diffrent from the current state of the table (on the server).

This Data Management is getting to be a pain, does anybody know how to get 
around this proble or simply turn it off.

I was hoping maybe their was a way to tell Zend to drop all refrences to the 
joined table so that their wouldn't be any more errors when the data is 
re-displayed.

If I make the DataGrid editable I can select from the drop down and it updates 
the Data Grid which I can show by scrolling the Drop Down List off the panel

bars just close the drop down list when you click on them.

If I make the Data Grid Un-editable the scroll bars begin to work but the 
editorDataField does not pass the update into the Data Grid and so it won't 
remember the changes.

editable=false Scrolling works, Update fails

Re: [flexcoders] Tricky Flash Form Question

 I have a CF Flash Form, which when I hit submit does a little 
 validation on form fields using ActionScript before it should submit 
 the form. The validation is working great except that I can't submit 
 it using AS. I have tried calling JS from AS and submitting the form 
 through that but that's not working either. My guess is that since 
 flash form is converted into a swf, it doesn't work like traditional 
 document.form.submit(); action. Sorry for posting CF Form questions here.

 What should I do?

In flash forms you have a specific custom action script function called 
submitForm() that will do this for you.  Depending on where you call it 
from, ie. from within a defined function, you may have to prefix it with 
_root.

Check out this URL in the MM livedocs regarding Custom Actionscript in 
CFForm : http://snipurl.com/CFFormCustomAS

Many thanks Steven,

Your inputs was very valuable for me to proceed forward.
I m workin with your framework right now for my prototype.
But Still, I have trouble stuff gettin inside my head.. the concept of thick web client and gettin 
rid of the request/response paradigm... 
* Should I try to fit in my whole application in one mx:application and render appropriately..?OR 
*Should I make you use of jsp or html andlink different mxml application (modules/pages)?.
* Will it not make page loading slow and hit performance?.

-many thanks and regards

RE: [flexcoders] Re: How to implement custom drawing for selected list items?

Hi Tobias,

There are a few examples in doc for implementing an interface in MXML.
You can find one in the Creating Advanced MXML Components chapter of
the Creating and Extending Flex Components book, and another in the
Working with Cell Editors in the Developing Flex Applications book.

Both books are available here:

Hi Manish.

I never knew about the implements tag for MXML components. It seems

code.

My custom selection behavior is mostly working now. I've got one anomaly
that I need to track down. If it starts looking like a bug, I'll post a
follow-up.

Thanks again for your help. It's nice to have a mailing list with

 Simply use the implements attribute:

 Or you can just reference the DataGrid directly from your item

Hello Flex Team!

I've noticed the IDropInListItemRenderer documentation (and classes that
implement it) is not up to date (or just not correct) as the they
reference a FlexEvent.DATA_OBJECT_CHANGED.

FlexEvent doesn't appear to exist at all. Is this just the Event class?
if so, is the DATA_OBJECT_CHANGED constant defined somewhere else?

For now I'm just using:

this.dispatchEvent(new Event(dataObjectChanged));

   I have posted this question many times in the group, but this
time I
   want to put it very clearly so that people notice this problem
  
   The BUG is if you cellRenderer implements
IDropInListItemRenderer
  (where
   you implement set and get listData methods, refer
  
  http://livedocs.macromedia.com/labs/1/flex/langref/index.html?
mxml-tag-d
   etail.htmlmxml-tags.html), its set and get listData methods
are never
   invoked. So you cellRenderer's listData local var is always
null.
  
   There are couple of issues here. The problem on hand is
related to
   cellRenderer/cellEditor for a DataGrid. I really see no value
in
   editorProperty attribute in datagrid, becuase most of times
when you
   implement a cellRenderer/cellEditor it will have more than one
  editable
   property. So what will you set the editorProperty. They dont
talk
  about
   this in the documentation. They only talk about simple
examples which
   has only one editable property. Manish suggested that we use a
  composite
   label of all the editable properties in cellRenderer to set to
the
   editorProperty. I am not sure how this works. When the
datagrid sets
  the
   editorProperty, it will set the composite label and how does
the
   cellRenderer know how to split this label to set the values to 
   appropriate textInput

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Developing Flex Book Example not working in Flex 2 Beta 2

2006-04-24 Thread Stephen Gilson



That is the Developing Rich Clients with Macromedia Flex book which
was written for Flex 1.0. You should look at the Flex 2.0 documentation,
including the migration guide, if you want to try to get that example
working. Validators have changed quite a bit since Flex 1.0.

Flex 2 Beta 2

Sure it's Chapter 8: Validating Form Driven Applications, page 192.
I'm trying to build the ValidatingForm.mxml base component. I then will
use that base component to create each of the child forms that will
eventually be children of the accordian. Any insight?

 I'm trying to use a similar function as in Chapter 8 of the flex book 
 regarding Forms. In the chapter, we create a base custom component 
 that extends the Form component. We then use that base custom 
 component to make the individual child forms which will be the

If the item was null we didn't do anything to create the item. The
DataGrid doesn't know how to create a new item of your class so it may
have just filled in the itemRenderer without doing anything. This
allows you to create the object yourself, which you should probably do
in the itemEditBeginning event. You'd get the information as to where
the thing is about to be created and if it's null you'd go ahead and
create an empty object and make sure that the it gets put into your
dataProvider.

I'm not sure if it will work, but I'm assuming otherwise we'd throw
errors for the value being null.

RE: [flexcoders] Flex2: Binding from actionscript

2006-07-19 Thread Stephen Gilson





Hi,

bindSetter() might not be the best name of that method. It 
could really be called bindFunction() because you are specifying a function to 
be called, not a real set method. If you have a real set method, use 
bindPropety() and specify the property name defined by the set method. You can 
see examples here:

http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/docs/1043.htmlhttp://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/docs/1044.html


Here's an example using bindSetter():

?xml version="1.0"?mx:Application 
xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"

mx:Script![CDATA[

mx.binding.utils.*;import 
mx.events.FlexEvent;

"text");}// 
Set method. public function setMyString(val:String):void 
{taSetter2.text = val; 
}!--

the DataGridEvent and ListEvent class not being set properly when you change 
cell focus. Which example is this? The page you mention takes me to a page with 
no example on it.

Re: [flexcoders] Dynamic text in buttons

2006-11-24 Thread Stephen Adams

Cool, that's great for languages, but we are also thinking about when we
create an application, which we sell to different clients and each one of
those may what to use different text. For example a button which says Add
New Member of Staff a client may want this to say Add New User. Ideally we
would just want to make a change in a database to change these kind of
things instead of recreating the entire application.

[flexcoders] Flex and CF (or how ActionScript is making me want to cry)

2006-11-27 Thread Stephen Adams

Hi,

I'm trying to get my head around using Flex with ColdFusion, but I'm really
getting stuck with how Flex works with CF.

I'm trying to create a application which has several forms in which the user
enters, save and update user details, simple stuff really. I can create the
CF code (using DAO's, gateways and Beans. But linking the methods in my CF
to Flex is melting my brain. Every example I've seen says it easy, and then
uses tons of ActionScript, which I get lost in.

SO what's the basic steps in linking CF and Flex, are they:


  1. Create your CF code (DAO's, Bean's and Gateways)
  2. Create your flex layout
  3. Call the CF Gateway using mx:RemoteObject
  4. Then link the results of the methods to the layout (this is the bit
  I'm lost at, passing data back and forth to CF methods)

Any help will be great and stop me running down the road screaming.

Thanks

Stephen


RE: [flexcoders] validation for form reset

Since validators do not retain state, you do not have to disable/enable

In my reset, i have

private function reset():void

name.text='';

nameValidator.enabled= true;
}

This works fine when the user has input some text in name field and 
then resets it. But when user clicks reset without having entered in 
textinput, it shows the red outline with the error message on that 
field. I have pasted code above for just one field, obviously I have

Please advise how to successfully reset form, no matter if the user 
has input text in field or not.

My implementation are a first page with login window, then if you can

I have some doubts about how load SWFs dinamycally, how (best way) create

I've been trying to create a custom preloader for my flex app. I want
to keep the DownloadProgressBar object on the screen when the app has
finished loading and initialising and then load my own xml
configuration file.

I've been trying to extend the DownloadProgressBar class and had a
look at extending the prelaoder class but didn't get very far.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? I did find one example
that replaced the prelaoder with an image but I couldn't alter this to
what I want.

I also tried to create my own DownloadProgressBar object and use it to
display progress of a load after the app has finished initialising but
this didn't work either.

Unless I can get it to work I'll have to just create my own popup and
load the xml once hte app has initialised but I'd rather it all
happens with the 1 popup.

Many Thanks.

Here is a custom event class. Just change LevelEvent to whatever you

But...you only need this if you need to pass some sort of data with your

it'll work fine.

RE: [flexcoders] Drag and Drop within TileList - why does my code copy instead of move?

2007-01-09 Thread Stephen Gilson
I did not run the code, but two things jump out at me.
 
In your doDragEnter event, you have this:
 
else 
{
DragManager.NONE;
}

DragManager.NONE is a constant, and I'm not sure what you are trying to
do.
 
In doDragOver(), you are calling showFeedback() on every item dragged. I
think you only need to call this once, based on whether you want to do a
move or a copy. 
 
Hope that helps,

Hello,

I would really appreciate another set of eyes taking a look at this code
to see what I'm doing wrong. I have several tile lists where tiles can
be dragged and dropped around. This code is pretty much straight out of
the docs plus a few rules, It's working fine except that the tiles are
copying, not moving as I want them to. Before I overrode the default
drag-and-drop functionality, they moved, but when I implemented my rules
to ensure they are being dragged to a list that accepts them, they
started copying.

it I'm missing, maybe someone on this list knows wheres the problem. 
So what I am doing is:
1. I create some pretty simple MXML project just for test with 
this content
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Application xmlns:mx= http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml 
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml  xmlns:myComp=components.* 
layout=absolute
myComp:TestComponent/myComp:TestComponent
/mx:Application

Pretty simple. 
xmlns:myComp=components.* defines that components can be 
found in folder named components in root of project, where I have this file 
TestComponent.as with following content
package components {
import mx.core.UIComponent;
import mx.controls.Image;
import flash.display.Shape;
public class TestComponent extends UIComponent {
private var imageInstance:Image = null;
public function TestComponent() { 
 super();
imageInstance = new Image();
imageInstance.source = icon.gif;
addChild(imageInstance);
trace(TestComponent initialized!); 
var shape:Shape = new Shape();
shape.graphics.beginFill(0xFF);
shape.graphics.drawCircle(50,50,25);
addChild(shape);
}
}
}

 icon.gif is bitmap stored in root folder of project.
Seems like pretty stright forward and theres nothing to break, 
but it isnt so. Shape appears, which make me think that component instance is 
initialized and placed in display list. 
But I really have bad luck with creating mx.controls.Image i 
think I tried everything with no luck.
There must be something I'm missing, but I have no idea what is 
it :)

Oh, and when I tried to extend some component directly it 
works, seems like thers no blank components for me! 
Any help will be apreciated!

Hi Jeff,

Thank you for your reply.

What sample code in the Flex docs?

I am studying via www.lynda.com.

If you could provide a URL to the Flex docs sample code, this would

 1) Your TitleWindow would be a separate MXML component, i.e.,

Hi all -

I am having trouble locating the proper way to attach an effect via AS 
code.. at a high level, I have controllers that are associated with 
views (Canvas descendants).. works well for me, but now I would like to 
have controllerA hand off control to controllerB/ViewB using a WipeDown 
effect.. in other words, user clicks something, a new canvas slides down

displaying something else and so on..

if I understand correctly, I don't get to use Transitions unless I 
change my views to be ViewStates..

I first tried using the help examples, which embed the effect in a tag, 
mxWipeDown duration=1000 id=myEffect but the problem is that this 
tag is embedded inside the components mx:Canvas tag and so setting the

Canvas' showEffect is not working.. I can't even see how to set the 
showEffect prop in code..

Next, I tried creating a WipeDown in code, setting its duration prop and

either setting the canvas.visible=true, OR calling wipeDown.play().. 
both fail - setting visible=true just ignores the effect, calling play 
seems to do nothing whatsoever.. tried attaching the canvas to the 
effect via effect constructor and also during the call to 
play(myCanvas).. same behavior (nothing).. this all looks like:

var _wipeDown:WipeDown;

_wipeDown = new WipeDown(myCanvas);
_wipeDown.showTarget = true; // the default, I know
_wipeDown.duration = 800;
.
.
_wipeDown.play(); OR _wipeDown.play([myCanvas]);

thanks for any thoughts -

Re: [flexcoders] What's the official consensus of using CodeBehind??

2007-02-09 Thread Stephen Downs
I originally was all go to separate the view and code using the  
source prop in a script tag. What i didn't like about this was that  
it was a loose link. Code behind makes this a more solid link but  
after experimenting with that also i've found I end up with some many  
files open it begins to turn into a negative.


I've settled on putting code in a script block. For me it makes  
things more manageable and I really don't see the problem with having  
the functionality for that component inside it (just like all the  
classes in the framework (i.e. they don't have an AS class for the  
functionality, and then an AS class extending that which creates the  
view items)).

What is your reasoning to use code behind? Why would you want to

Generally this is a good idea, but i think it is important where to  
draw the line between the two. When you think of traditional  
systems with a template engine as the presentation layer, the  
templates also contain some code to build the presentation, while  
the functionality is implemented by plain classes. Now if we  
translate this thinking to Mxml and ActionScript, we should leave  
all the code we need to build the presentation inside the Mxml  
files and factor out the real functionality into classes. So i'd  
say, there is nothing wrong with ActionScript in Mxml files as long  
as it is strictly presenation related.

It would appear the link I gave is broken. But nevermind, I have
found the solution by delving through the framework source code, where
the developers do it differently from what is documented in the Live

The solution is to use something along the lines of:

private static var stylesInitialised:Boolean = initStyles();

private static function initStyles():Boolean {
var sd:CSSStyleDeclaration =
StyleManager.getStyleDeclaration(AreaZoom);

if (!sd)
{
sd = new CSSStyleDeclaration();
StyleManager.setStyleDeclaration(AreaZoom, sd, false);
}

sd.defaultFactory = function():void

this.borderColour = 0x017C98;
this.borderAlpha = 1;
this.fillColour = 0x96CEFD;
this.fillAlpha = 0.2;

Subject: [flexcoders] How can I access public members of custom MXML
component using inline statemen ?



Hello all,

How can I access public members of custom MXML component using inline 
statemen ?

For example, I have my own MXML component name myComp which has 
public members.

How can I access these public member from inling mxml.

In other words, of couse I can do myComp.myMember = ABC;

But I wish to do it not in ActionScript but in MXML ( inline ).

In other words, I wish to do:

myview:MyComp x=100 y=100 myMember=ABC /

In other words, in line MXML ( not in AS ).

I tried using the setter function in myComp, but no luck.

As always, Thank you for all the help and support.

Regards,

Sean - http://www.HeliHobby.com http://www.HeliHobby.com

RE: [flexcoders] Drag Drop Compiler Bug/Problem

2007-03-06 Thread Stephen Gilson
One thought is that the doc specifies to use a container as a drop
target, you must use the backgroundColor property of the container to
set a color. Otherwise, the background color of the container is
transparent, and the Drag and Drop Manager is unable to detect that the
mouse pointer is on a possible drop target.

Subject: [flexcoders] Drag Drop Compiler Bug/Problem



I have a very (very) simple demo program that is listed below. I was
having trouble dropping a tilelist item onto a canvas. I was able to
get the drop to work only if I set the toolTip of the canvas. This
seems very odd, like the canvas was not initialized yet. The drag
operation starts OK enough but I get the cannot drop marker when I try
to drop on the canvas, UNLESS I set the tooltip to something. Any ideas?

@Embed is a compiler directive so you can't put it in quotes.

You can still create components for Flex using 
the Flash environment, but Macromedia supports only creating components using 
the functionality supported in Flash for Flex 1.0 (including Updaters 1 and 
2).

Do not create new components using the

deprecated. The flexforflash.zip file is provided for backward-compatibility

Excuse me for the late reply, but you are coming across a

base tag. If you define the mxml component to contain a child, you cannot add a

  I've just 
  requested the following improvement of the Flex API docs because I think they 
  are lacking some very useful and basic information:
  
  The API 
  documentation lacks a lot of information that would save a considerable amount 
  of time looking and testing for the answers - for example, you can find which 
  node is currently selected in a Tree component by using the Tree.selectedNode 
  property. The API docs explains that the item returned is dependent on the 
  type of item selected - fair enough, but what if the user deselects a node so 
  that no node is selected? I know that its probably going to be undefined, but 
  why doesn't the API say that, I have to check it before I can carry on with 
  other coding. This is not the first item that I've had this with, in fact the 
  only reason I'm asking for this feature request is because there are so many 
  times that I've thought that the API doc doesn't really cover what I need to 
  know about the Class. The Java docs are very thorough although not perfect - 
  I'm not asking for perfection because its not achievable, but the API docs can 
  be massively improved.
  
  Thinking about it, 
  if the code was being written "test first" surely a lot of the information 
  would be there ready.

iconFunction should

[Embed(source=myBookIcon.jpg)]
var bookIcon :

function 
iconFunc(item)
{
 if (item.label 
== books) return bookIcon;
 else return 
someOtherIconName;
}

If you want to use the 
original icons if yours isnt appropriate you can get the defaultLeafIcon, 
folderOpenIcon, and folderClosedIcon 
(myTree.getStyle(defaultLeafIcon))

based on it i thought that i could NOT use the tag/style in a component;
but when I changed it to this; mx:Style myLinkBar.LinkBar {some style
stuff } /mx:Style noticed i added a ID to the LinkBar style it worked
just fine...just thought someone might what to know...

[flexcoders] Cairngorm 0.99 ViewHelper problem

2005-05-23 Thread Stephen Inzer
In the 0.95 version of Cairngorm the ViewHelpers were identified by
their name attribute. I could initialize the name attribute with a
call to a method. But in the 0.99 version the name attribute has gone
away, and the ViewHelper is identied by the id attribute. The id
attribute cannot be initailized at run time, it must be evaluated a
compile time.

In the application I am developing I have a view that has a
ViewHelper. The view is used many times As a result I need to have
many ViewHelpers. The Views and ViewHelpers are created at runtime so
I cannot hard code the ids for these objects. Each ViewHelper must
have a unique name, but since I cannot call a method when assigning
the id attribute I cannot do this. 

Will this work:

mx:Script
  ![CDATA[
  var viewHelper : ViewHelper = ViewHelperBuilder(this);
  ]]
/mx:Script

This allows me to set the id without a compiler error, but will the
initialized( document: Object, id: String) method be called with the
the correct object?

RE: [flexcoders] style a validator output

You can use the ErrorTip style:

mx:Style
ErrorTip { borderColor: #00FF00 }
/mx:Style

Hi Guys,

Is it possible to style the output of the Validator? Would be nice to
change the red error message bubble at least to another colour. Can it
be done?

Thanks in advance,

Hi All,
I have a situation with TabNavigator - where in before user
navigate to next tab I have to do some validations on data they entered
and if no errors then only I let the user go to next tab. In order to
achieve this I need to trap some event before change event can occure.
From my previous posting I think the only way I can achieve this
functionality is extend the TabNavigator and override corresponding
methos(?).
Can any one guide me to locations where I can find enough info
How to extend mx controls and use them in my mxml files? Thanks in
advance for your help. I really appreciate if any one can post already
working code for both extending and using in mxml file .

Thanks!

RE: [flexcoders] 'fade effect' question

From the doc:

Note: To use the Fade effect with text, you must use an embedded font,
not a device font. For more information, see Using Styles and Fonts.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: ComboBox 'Please Select' first Item

2005-06-30 Thread Stephen Gilson






The difference is that addItemAt() is a method of the 
List class (inherited from 
ScrollSelectList), which is howyou 
calledit. It is documented here as 
part of List:

http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/15/asdocs_en/mx/controls/List.html 


The addItemsAt() method is on the DataProvider 
class.

The links to the MP3 files in these examples are not to real MP3 files.
In the example with the line:

Replace bluechristmas.mp3 with the name of an MP3 file on your machine.

I follow the livedoc from Macomedia to play a MP3 file under Flex
environment.

http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/15/flex_docs_en/wwhelp/wwhimpl/commo
n/html/wwhelp.htm?context=Flex_Documentationfile=2171.htm

Th error message is always Failed to find resource. From the experienc
of graphic file handling, I know that if I use the wrong file type, such
as gif but not jpg, the message will come up. 

In this case, even the sample teach me to do in that way, why it didn't
work?
