RE: [Flashcoders] Problem extending inherited function
The way you had your code, the Child class will never receive the
killingFocus call. Add a Delegate within the Mother Class to put the
onKillFocus event into scope with Child...
import mx.utils.Delegate;
class Mother extends MovieClip {
public var txt:TextField;
public function Mother() {
//this.onPress = killingFocus;
this.txt.onKillFocus = Delegate.create(this, killingFocus);
}
public function killingFocus():Void {
trace("testFunc in mother");
}
}

Subject: [Flashcoders] Problem extending inherited function
Hi, I have a problem extending an inherited function. I put all the
files described here in a zip if you want to test it yourselves:
http://www.webguidepartner.com/~johan/super-problem.zip
I have this mother-class:
class Mother extends MovieClip {
public var txt:TextField;
public function Mother() {
this.onPress = killingFocus;
//this.txt.onKillFocus = killingFocus;
}
public function killingFocus():Void {
trace("testFunc in mother");
}
}
...and this child-class that inherits from Mother:
class Child extends Mother {
public function Child() {
super();
}
public function killingFocus():Void {
super.killingFocus();
trace("testFunc in child");
}
}
Now, I have a test.fla that contains a movie clip that is linked to
Child. Everything works as expected, both lines of trace running on the
onPress.
But now: comment out the onPress-event in the constructor in Mother, and
uncomment the second line: this.txt.onKillFocus = killingFocus;
Now, there is a text field inside the movie clip. When this text field
loses focus, you wold expect the code to run the same way, but no. The
killingFocus-function in Mother is overwritten and only the trace in
Child runs.
I have some clue that the problem must have something to do with that it
is the text field that triggers the event, and not the movie clip. But
you would expect the super.killingFocus(); to work anyway, regardless of
what calls the function?!
Regards,
/Johan

RE: [Flashcoders] xml parse question
You might be aware of this, but just an FYI, if you're concerned about
attributes being order specific. When you loop through the attributes with a
for statement, you'll get the attributes in the reverse order. I personally
loop through the attributes and push the attribute name to an array and then
reverse order, when the for is done.

RE: [Flashcoders] Help with updating a nodeValue in an XML file
Sorry miss understood the question.
You won't be able to write back to the XML file located on the server
directly. You'll have to add a logic layer (ASP, PHP, C#, etc...) that you
can send the new XML data and have that layer update your XML file
(XMLConnector, WebServiceConnector, etc...)

All you need to do is set the nodeValue rather than access it.
var trial_xml:XML = new XML("This is a
category");
trace(trial_xml.firstChild.firstChild.firstChild.nodeValue);
trial_xml.firstChild.firstChild.firstChild.nodeValue = "This is a NEW
category";
trace(trial_xml.firstChild.firstChild.firstChild.nodeValue);
trace(trial_xml);
stop();
trace output:
This is a category
This is a NEW category
This is a NEW category

Hi, I'm not a much a programmer guy. I'm trying to do something, I

Anyone of you guys knows a way to write when this movie clip has

Subject: [Flashcoders] IE6 CTRL key problem.
Hey everyone,
I am having some problem with the following code in Internet Explorer
6.0 on Windows 2000 with Flash Player 9. I am trying to write code for a
hotkey to recognize when both the CTRL key and either X,C, or V is
pressed in order to do copying and pasting. I will attach a sample of
the code below. This code works in Firefox with Flash Player 9 just fine
and I have been told it works in Internet Explorer 7.0
I have a keyListener object set up which contains the following code.
var temp = this;
this.keyListener = new Object();
this.keyListener.onKeyDown = function()
{
temp.checkHotKeys()
}
Key.addListener(this.keyListener);
In the temp object, I have the function checkHotKeys which is as follows:
function checkHotKeys()
{
//Ctrl-X
if(Key.isDown(Key.CONTROL) && Key.isDown(88))
this.editCut();
//Ctrl-C
if(Key.isDown(Key.CONTROL) && Key.isDown(67))
this.editCopy();
//Ctrl-V
if(Key.isDown(Key.CONTROL) && Key.isDown(86))
this.editPaste();
//Delete
if(Key.isDown(Key.DELETEKEY))
this.editDelete();
}
I added some traces for Key.getCode() in the above function and found
that when I was holding down the CTRL key and then pressed another key,
Key.getCode() would still return 17, effectively not recognizning that
the second key was pressed. Alternatively, if I held down X/C/V first
and then pressed the CTRL key, it would update correctly.
Also, I replaced all instances of Key.CONTROL with Key.SPACE and it
worked correctly with space bar.
Does anyone have any idea why this would not work in IE6 and if there
are any workarounds? Has anyone even seen this error before?

RE: [Flashcoders] >> combobox
Also, when you load a clip using loadMovieNum, you're loading the SWF
directly into the timeline. When you use loadMovie, you're loading the SWF
into a target clip.
When you load a SWF into a target clip that utilizes components, you'll need
to set _lockroot = true; on the target clip.
var link:MovieClip = this.myClip;
loadMovie("combo.swf", link);
link._lockroot = true;
Hope that helps,
Andrew

RE: [Flashcoders] Problem capturing the ALT key
Vipin: My initial thought is to trap for the alt key in director. If the projector detects the key is pressed, send a call to a function in your SWF. -- prepareMovie is called before first frame is loaded on prepareMovie -- keyDownScript assigns a function for capturing and handling -- all keys pressed. keyDownScript = "checkKeys" end prepareMovie on checkKeys -- Check to see if the keys are pressed. If they are call to SWF -- -- _key.key uses the (ANSI) value that is assigned to the key, not the -- numerical value. _key.keyCode uses the numerical value, not the -- American National Standards Institute (ANSI) value. if (_key.optionDown and _key.key = "j") then -- If the AS function is in the _root timeline call with this syntax sprite(flashSprite).altPressed() -- If the AS function is in a clip timeline call with this syntax sprite(flashSprite).myClip.altPressed() else put "Key pressed ="&&_key.key end if end checkKeys Hope this helps...
