[flexcoders] Re: tilelist itemrender problem
how do i create an Array Collection of Objects that have a label property and an icon property. after reading something abt the tilelist on bruce philips blog, someone had the same problem and was asked to create an Array Collection of Objects that have a label property and an icon property and use the icon property to load the images.
[flexcoders] Re: tilelist itemrender problem
when i do what you asked me to do by taking out the leading dots and the forward slash, image icons appear but without loading the images. could it be with the coldfusion query? coz it looks like its actually trying to load the images but cant find them. am gonna revise my coldfusion query bt if you dont mind you can also look at it see if am doing something wrong. cffunction name=load output=false access=remote returntype=query cfargument name=ctry_id required=true type=numeric default=0 cfset var homes= cfset var result= cfquery name=homes datasource=realestate select id, ctryid_home, city, location, price, type, square_feet, date_listed, bedrooms, bathrooms, status, pool, backyard, closets, garage, sale, rent, image, lat, lng, description, tour FROMhomes WHERE ctryid_home = cfqueryparam value=#arguments.ctry_id# cfsqltype=cf_sql_integer / /cfquery cfquery dbtype=query name=results select id, ctryid_home, city, location, price, type, square_feet, date_listed, bedrooms, bathrooms, status, pool, backyard, closets, garage, sale, rent, 'http://localhost:8500/IESTATE_V1/assets/homeprofile_pics/' + image AS profilePic, lat, lng, description, 'http://localhost:8500/iestate/images/video/' + tour AS video FROM homes /cfquery cfreturn results /cffunction
[flexcoders] Re: tilelist itemrender problem
I'd suggest you just solve this systematically, instead of guessing. Hard code a full url to a known image. Verify it in a browser, and test it in the app. Then make that url relative, test it. If you can't find it, put the image in the same folder as the main app, test again with the full url in browser and app, then make the relative url (it should just be the file name alone). Test in the app. Move the image ONE folder toward where you want it. Adjust the relative url. Test. Repeat, until the Image is where you want it and the app works. Doing this will probably show you where your current logic is in error. Having to do this once or twice was one of the reasons I mostly stopped using relative urls, and started passing the full qualified url to the root assets folder from the html wrapper via flashvars. That technique has other benefits as well.

hope thats clear. so after knowing how things are arranged do you

is
the problem?
Try taking off the leading dots and forward slash. The path should
be relative to your main mxml file, not relative to the component.

[flexcoders] Re: tilelist itemrender problem
i have tried that and the image shows. but when i try loading them dynamically from db nothing shows up. thats where am stuck. all am asking is to be pointed into the right direction, maybe there could be something in my code thats missing or that needs to be removed. thanks

I think the problem is this:
{'../assets/homeprofile_pics/' + data.profilePic}
This is sayint to look for the assets folder _outside_ of the src
directory, in the main project folder. Is that where you've placed
them?

when i use the hardcode relative link it works, so i guess the data
return from the cfc is wrong. bt thats odd the query seems to be
correct. may be its something to do with my arraycollection. please
take a look at the array collection and see if there's something wrong.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: tilelist itemrender problem
What is the event.result? you need to stick a breakpoint when your
displayResult function is called and see what is being returned and
change that into an arraycollection. You're line of code is effectively
saying that event.result is an arraycollection which I doubt (but I do
not know what CF can do).
Debug it and that will show you the answer, you need to see what's come
back.
