[AS2] how to access a TextInput using its name?

I want to change the text of a TextInput using its name for example.
("name1").text = "123"
or is it possible to create an array of components?:
txt[0].text = "123"
how to do it? thanks in advance

I'm not certain what your intention is, but if the instance name of the textfield is name1, then you can assign its text using:
name1.text = "123";
If you have an array of the instances, the same applies, so long as the array is assigned the instances and not string versions of their names.
var txt:Array = new Array(name1);
txt[0].text = "123";
If you have an array with strings of the instances names, then you need to use bracket notation to have the strings interpretted as instances...
var txt:Array = new Array("name1");
this[txt[0]].text = "123";

  • How to access an element using its name or id if it is not a class variable?

    I am trying to retrieve the element I added to my UI in a different  function. I am using actionscript 3. I know I can put the variable into a  class variable, so it can be access anywhere in the class, but I have  too many elements. Is there anyway I could access them without putting  them into class variable?
    Thanks.

    How to get the extension Info from firefox? Do we have any firefox API to communicate with the browser? I couldnt see the HTML of the widget displayed in the toolbar how to access the widget using JS or any way

    Hi,
    Thanks for the suggestion. I've been playing around with some of the classes of the java.net package and java.io
    Using the URL class i can get the content of the data from a STATIC page and output that response to file so that is does not display to the client broswer.
    But this only works if the URL i give points to a static html page.
    So the problem i'm getting is if i'm righting in arguments in the URL, this means that server needs to process the arguments i give and its sends back a dynamic result. Because its dynamic the URL class can not handle this and throws me an exception everytime :(
    Have u ever tried to do some things like this?

  • How to search for a certain cross reference using its name in FM 11?

    How to search for a certain cross reference using its name in FM 11?

    Well, thank you. I am only using Find dialog box. By "name", I'd like to give an example. The background is FM 11 structured. I have an element "xref" which is used to make cross reference. Now In Chapter 1, there is a sentence like "This is an ODU for ...". I made a cross ref of the word "ODU" to its full name "outdoor unit" in Chapter 2 (in the same book). After this, the word "ODU" in the sentence in Chapter 1 will no longer be a plain text. So I no longer can use the find dialog box to search for "ODU" because it is already an xref rather than text. I am not if it's clear.

  • How to access Acrobat Plugin using GetInterface?

    Hi
    I'm trying to access a C++ plug-in written for Adobe Acrobat from a C# program. Following is my code, which I found elsewhere in this forum (LINK).
    Type acroApp;
    acroApp = Type.GetTypeFromProgID("AcroExch.App");
    object oAcroObject = Activator.CreateInstance(acroApp);
    object[] param = new object[1];
    param[0] = "MyPlugin";
    object pluginRef = oAcroObject.GetType().InvokeMember("GetInterface",BindingFlags.Invoke Method, null, oAcroObject, param);
    Here, MyPlugin is the name of the plugin (without extension) which I've placed in the Acrobat plug-ins folder. But this way, InvokeMember returns a NULL object instead of the expected interface of my plugin.
    What am I doing wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You don't do it that way.
    You need to use standard "inter application communication" methods such as (but not limited to): COM, DDE, shared memory, shared files, named pipes, etc.

    1)How can I control instrument using its RS232 port in VB or VC++?
    2)What's the module or .h file need I add-in to VB or VC++?
    3)Can you provide me some easy examples for that?
    Thanks!

    Kevin,
    I've used Measurement Studio - Tools for Visual Basic and Tools for Visual C++ (ActiveX component) for instrument control.
    I've used both the VISA and non VISA versions and they are pretty straight forward to use for GPIB, Serial or VXI.

  • How to access the mysql using ordinary command line in Azure Website?

    Hi
    I deploying Django project on Azure. I created project and MySQL db according this method: https://pytools.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=PollsDjangoSql . I can create tables using django command "syncdb" in Visual Studio. I see
    db structure in SQL Explorer. All works. But now I need to get access directly to mysql.  For example with a view to set encoding of some column, or set permissions, change user password, etc.
    I found about many different tools and methods in Microsoft portal. But the purpose of these tools, how to install it and how to use it is a very entangled (After several attempts to find out what's what two weeks later I found on my computer
    three dozen programs with unknown purpose. I doubt that I need to install so many tools to just add the user in mysql).
    How to access the mysql using ordinary command line (or the same simple tool) in my case?

    Hi pvgdrk,
    To get access directly to a mysql database, you can use the commandline tool(open a cmd window-->type mysql the commadline ) or the
    GUI MySQL workbench.
    Since this is a question about MySQL, I would suggest you post your question in a dedicated MySQL forum. You will get more prompt response.

  • Can we access the session scoped variable by simply using its name

    The Java EE 6 Tutorial contains a "Duke's Bookstore Case Study Example”. I could not understand following statements of this case study:
    *bookdetails.xhtml*
    {code}
    <h:outputText value="#{selected.title}"/>
    {code}
    *BookstoreBean.java*
    {code}
    public String details() {
    context()
    .getExternalContext()
    .getSessionMap()
    .put(
    "selected",
    getFeatured());
    return ("bookdetails");
    {code}
    I want to know can we access the session scoped variable in bookdetails.xhtml by simply using its name as done above?

    It is basic Expression Language (EL) functionality, it isn't even specific to JSF. And it isn't specific to the session scope either, you can put beans in any scope (page, request, session, application, flash, conversation, whatever custom scope you create) and reference it using EL by only its name. The thing that you have to take care of is that the bean lives in SOME scope, which can be achieved using JSF specific annotations or configuration files, through CDI or by manually putting the bean in a specific scope through Java code. It's flexible, which is the nature of the Java platform.

  • How to access remote database using applet

    hi all,
    I want to know how to access remote database using applet,
    Please help me anybody.
    Regards
    Jesu

    If the database is on a public server, you probably can't access it directly (security wise). You can make your applet talk to a server-side application, which makes the database calls on behalf of the applet. But even in an intranet environment this setup is often preferable, because you don't need to distribute a JDBC driver to all your clients.

  • How do I configure snow leopard server to allow local client to access the server using its public domain name

    I have SLS 10.6 running on my local network with DNS configured.
    I can access the server from a client on the lan using server.local or server.domain  where domain name is my publically registered domain,
    From the internet I can access my server using the registered domain name i.e. www.domain.com. 
    Is it possible to set my server up so that www.domain.com  also reaches the server when used by a client locally?   At present I get a page not found error.

    The configuration you're aiming for is called split-horizon or split-brain DNS, and it's quite possible.  It can get slightly hairy when you have different stuff using the same host name for different purposes, for instance, and you'll need to track all external DNS entries in your internal DNS server when you're running "split". 
    Here is how to set up DNS services.   Split-horizon is one of the options listed there.
    My preference is to use a different domain or subdomain within the network, and to avoid using split-horizon where I can reasonably manage it.  One domain name is configured for and reachable outside and is effectively public, and the other domain (or a subdomain) is inside and private and only reachable directly or via VPN, for instance.

  • How to Access Custom Event using AS3?

    Hi All,
    Maybe it's that its Monday morning and my brain is still foggy, but I can't seem to figure out how to set custom events using AS3.
    I have a custom GridRow itemRenderer, and have declared the event using the appropriate metatags.
    Then I create the GR item dynamically using AS3 instantiation, but the event is not available for selection in the intellisense drop-down.
    Let's take the following as an example:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <mx:Grid
         xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
         xmlns:renderers="com.brassworks.renderers.*"
         creationComplete="componentInit();"
    >
         <mx:Script>
              <![CDATA[
                   private function componentInit():void
                        newRow     :MyRow     = new MyRow();
                        //newRow.myEvent is not an available option to set
              ]]>
         </mx:Script>
    </mx:Grid>
    Then the itemRenderer:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <GridRow
         xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
         xmlns:classes="com.brassworks.components.classes.*"
         creationComplete="componentInit();"
    >
         <mx:Metadata>
              [Event(name="myEvent", type="flash.events.Event")]
         </mx:Metadata>
         <mx:Script>
              <![CDATA[
                   private function itemChanged(event:Event):void
                   Alert.show("test");
                   this.dispatchEvent(new Event("myEvent"));
              ]]>
         </mx:Script>
         <mx:GridItem>
              <mx:TextInput
                   change="itemChanged"
              />
         </mx:GridItem>
    </GridRow>
    How do I go about setting the handler method for custom events on instantiated items? Do I need to do this via the AddEventListener() method? Does this mean that events aren't exposed in ActionScript like they are in MXML? (In MXML all I have to do is <MyRow myEvent="handler(event)" />.)
    Thanks!
    -Mike

    Yes, I you need to do this via the addEventListener() method.
    myRow.addEventListener( "myEvent", myHandler );
    I hope that helps.

  • HT204391 How come Apple can't use its own software to create this guide as a pdf or an iBook?

    Does Apple actually use its own software?
    The woefully few manuals it manages to provide now are all created in Indesign and desperately need the critical eye of an editor to correct the errors, ommisions, obsolescence and plain confusing statements.
    As Apple's efforts grow ever more obscure, awkward, contradictory and difficult to use, it tells it Users next to nothing about how they all work.

    LOL, I saw the points tally and thought at first  you were opening a thread to motivate some ideas to pass back!
    I assumed also that the points did not come  from iBA and like others... were experienced and skilled dealing with Pages etc,.
    Fact is  Apple cloned iBA from Pages - which is basically a sound concept and suits a purpose.. but the cry as always been... "give us a decent manual".  Apple in their wisdom apparently did not conceive that people would use iBA having never used pages. I actually purchased iWorks back in 2005 for  my then new PowerPC G5 10.4.11 tried it and went back to  MS Publisher!
    18 months or more on depending on iBA's release, most  users are pretty much capable now but  a few new comers from other software packages  do seen to  have trouble getting information to start up.
    From Apples point of view.. their project worked, the software  as it is as flooded the book store with product dedicated to iPads and therfore income for Apple only.  I have no doubt the next update will deal with some of the isssues sent  in as feedback.
    Meanwhile, welcome to the club.........

  • How to access parallel ports using LabVIEW?

    I want to send data to a device which is connected through LPT1.when Iam using serial port write.vi with port number 10(for LPT1) it is giving an error code 37 which means the device not found. whether those vis are only for accessing serial ports? Then how to access LPT1 using LabVIEW?

    Most likely you need to modify your labview ini file to let it know that LPT1 (or whichever) will be controled through the serial port control. See the following link for a knowledgebase answer to this question:

    Hi Donato,
    Did you ever get an answer for this issue? I'm trying to get a similar case working and would be curious on how you ended up doing this...
    For what I know so far, this may help you:
    1) The trigger-EBSProfile requires you to pass th afGuid value, this value, is created automatically by the IPM process, basically, when you click the MA button in EBS, the SOA call to IPM does 2 things:
    First, it creates a row in the AFGRANTS table in the WCContent DB, this basically overwrites UCM security and give the user access to the documents, this table has the information of the EBS record (Business Object, and Primary Key) as well as the auto generated afGuid
    Second it sends back the URL to WCContent, mainly "/cs/idcplg/_p/min/af/trigger-EBSProfile?IdcService=GET_SEARCH_RESULTS_FORCELOGIN" and passes the afGuid created in the first step, which identifies the EBS record.
    So if you need to make direct calls to UCM under the trigger-EBSProfile you will need to manually (custom) add the afGuid and details of the EBS record to the table, the entries in this table get removed automatically based on the dexpirationdate value
    2) While the IPM SOA call overwrites the UCM security, if you have implemented your own security structure (assign a different security group to the documents and give the users access to it) you could make calls directly to UCM bypassing the "trigger-EBSProfile"..
    for example, in the call you were trying to make originally to DOC_INFO, if you know the dDocName of the document, you can simply call the service as "/cs/idcplg?IdcService=DOC_INFO_BY_NAME&dDocName=POC2001" (I use DOC_INFO_BY_NAME because you need to know the dDocId for DOC_INFO)
    You can do the same with other services like checkin/checkout etc, (for checking you will need to pass the additional parameters dfBusinessObejct, dAFBusinessObject and dfApplication to link the document to the EBS record)
    Regards,
