Combo box to target frames

I am trying to figure out how to use the comboBox to target
different frames. For instance - Label One goes to Frame 1, Label
Two goes to Frame 2, etc. I am very limited in my flash knowledge
base so please forgive me if there is an obvious solution that I am
missing.

For each label, enter the frame number as the data. Then
create a listener for the "change" event of the comboBox, like so:
var myLis:Object = new Object();
myLis.change = function(evt:Object){
gotoAndPlay(evt.target.selectedItem.data);
myComboBox.addEventListener("change", myLis);
//myComboBox is the instance name of the combo box

  • While selecting value from combo box in one frame, based on the selection..

    Hi friends,
    can someone help me out on a issue as it follows:-
    iam developing an application where Iam using xsl,html,javascript and xml.
    There is no existense of Database at all. data is read from xml.
    now,
    In a window there are 3 frames. In the 1st frame combo box is there.
    Based on the selection in the combo box data will be displayed in the 2nd frame.
    now onchange or onselect methods not giving the expected result.
    actually,in the the xsl which is having 3 frames,the 1st and 3rd frame
    calling src="abc.xml" and src="abc.xml"which are static.
    but in the 2nd frame the data need to be changed dynamically.
    I have given frame name="frame_ExchangeDetails2" rows="3%" src="cc_marketWatch_02.xml"/>
    usually data dynamically comes from database.but here i have to refer xml file
    something like [window.href.location="abc.xml"]
    but the problem is when you refer supose:-
    <frame name="frame_ExchangeDetails2" rows="3%" src="cc_marketWatch_02.xml"/>
    the frame is having static page,though there are functions in javascript which are called in onload and onchange.which are not working.
    I have tried putting if condition like:-
    if(document.abc.fieldname.value=='6'
    {   window.location.href = "cc_custLookUpData-mobileno.xml";   
    so that it could go to the repective page.
    but it is not working.
    so what should i do if I select from combo box in one frame and based on the selection xml/html page will be displayed in the 2nd frame.
    if anybody has google account i can forward the zip file so it will be easier to understand.

    If you have rights to modify tabular model then, you can create a measure in your Tabular model which returns previous week and then use this measure in Pivot Table.

  • VideoFormatChooser - Frame rate combo box show: default

    In my applicatio, VideoFormatChooser - Frame rate combo box show: < default > but in JMStudio, I have a list of available frame rates... know why ?

    I have not had this issue with combo boxes. Could post the code you use to construct and add your combo box to the frame?

  • Tab Component Dynamic Visibility to Combo Boxes

    I am using a Tab component.  I have 3 tabs on my dashboard.  I have 2 Combo boxes that I am using to filter rows of data on 3 Excel sheets.  Both Combo boxes are not used on all the tabs.  How can I pass example: User clicks on Tab 1 and use dynamic visibility for Combo Box 1 and Combo Box 2 are visible.  If the user clicks on Tab 2 I want only Combo Box 1 to be visible.

    Hi Joe,
    This can be achieved in Dynamic visibility.
    On click on Tab,just map to some target(say value "1") and then For Combo box,set target cell mapped for tab to 1,which means when the target cell gets "1",show the Combo box.
    If you are not clear then you can refer the following URL,which will give you more informations about this.

  • Disabled combo boxes don't display properly after loading a movie.

    Hi,
    I have a main movie that contains some combo boxes. Some of them may be disabled.
    By pressing a button I load another movie using loadMovie. The loaded movie also contains combo boxes.
    When the button is pressed, the clip that shows the combo boxes is removed from the stage and the loaded movie is displayed. By pressing another button, the loaded movie is unloaded and the clip with the combo boxes is displayed again.
    Well, once the other movie has been loaded, when I go back to the clip with combo boxes, the disabled combo boxes have a small gray button covering the black down arrow.
    I have determined that so long as the loaded movie contains combo box in the library, the problem occurrs, even if there is no actual instance of it.
    The combo boxes that are not disabled are not affected. The combo boxes are disabled by setting "cb_name.enabled=false".
    If the combo box is enabled, it displays correctly, but if disabled again, it goes wrong again.
    My project is targeting Flash 8, so it uses AS2.
    I'm using Flash CS4.
    This is a very simple example I did to make sure I wasn't doing anything funny:
    Initially:
    After pressing the button:
    After pressing the other button:
    The behaviour in a web browser is the same...
    I hope someone can help me with this. Thanks in advance!

    Thanks for the response.
    The "Load the movie" button:
    on(click)
        _parent.gotoAndStop(2);
    The 2nd frame:
    loadMovie("Test another child.swf",Container);
    stop();
    The "Unload and go back" button:
    on(click)
        unloadMovie(_parent.Container);
        _parent.gotoAndStop(1);
    Container is a movieClip with a dark gray square shape the size of the movie clip that is loaded. It doesn't exist on frame 1, only on frame 2.
    The combo boxes are inside a movie clip, and this is only on the stage on frame 1.
    This and the captures belong to a very simple test I did. If there is a way of posting files, I can post a zip file with the two .fla and the two .swf.

  • Multiple combo boxes

    Hi all,
    New to this forum. Hoping someone might be able to help or
    point me in the right direction. I`m trying to use three combo
    boxes, with each combination of choices taking the user to a
    different frame. Is this possible? Any hints of where to start?
    Many thanks in advance!

    Thanks for your reply. I have now got as far as being able to
    tell which item has been selected from two combo boxes, but can`t
    seem to use them outside of this function. I tried declaring as
    global variables but still can`t get it to work.
    Heres my code:
    var myComboBox1:mx.controls.ComboBox;
    myComboBox1.removeAll();
    myComboBox1.addItem("--Choose--", "Choose");
    myComboBox1.addItem("one", "1");
    myComboBox1.addItem("ten", "10");
    myComboBox1.addItem("twenty", "20")
    myComboBox2.removeAll();
    myComboBox2.addItem("--Choose--", "Choose");
    myComboBox2.addItem("a", "a1");
    myComboBox2.addItem("b", "b10");
    myComboBox2.addItem("c", "c20")
    //Check taking the correct value from combo box 1
    myComboBox1.addEventListener("change", doChange1);
    function doChange1 (evt1){
    trace ("Combo box 1 " + evt1.target.value);
    _global.varResult_1=evt1.target.value
    //Check taking the correct value from combo box 2
    myComboBox2.addEventListener("change", doChange2);
    function doChange2 (evt2){
    trace ("Combo box 2 " + evt2.target.value);
    varResult_2=evt2.target.value
    //Try to choose which frame to go to depending on both combo
    boxes
    function checkResult(){
    //varResult_1=myComboBox1.value
    //varResult_2=myComboBox2.value
    if((_global.varResult_1==10)&(_global.varResult_2==b10)){
    gotoAndStop(10)
    function doChange(evt1) {
    trace("Value changed to 1" + _global.varResult_1);
    trace("Value changed to 2" + evt2.target.value);

    Can anyone give me any hints of where I am going wrong or
    where to look for help?

    i am using Rational Application Developer to develop my application.
    i am using a combo box and i am assigning cityName from the SDO.
    and i am declaring a variable in the pageCode eg.
    private String cityName;
    public void setCityName(String cityName){
    this.cityName = cityName;
    public String getCityName(){
    return cityName;
    <h:selectOneMenu id="menu1" styleClass="selectOneMenu" value="#{pc_Test1.loginID}" valueChangeListener="#{pc_Test1.handleMenu1ValueChange}">

  • Adding an event listener to combo box

    I am working on a mortgage calculator and I cannot figure out how to add an event listener to a combo box.
    I want to get the mortgage term and interest rate to calucate the mortgage using the combo cox. Here is my program.
    Modify the mortgage program to allow the user to input the amount of a mortgage
    and then select from a menu of mortgage loans: 7 year at 5.35%, 15 year at 5.50%, and
    30 year at 5.75%. Use an array for the different loans. Display the mortgage payment
    amount. Then, list the loan balance and interest paid for each payment over the term
    of the loan. Allow the user to loop back and enter a new amount and make a new
    selection, with resulting new values. Allow user to exit if running as an application
    (can't do that for an applet though).

    The OP already did this to both JComboBoxes.
    mochatay, here is a new actionPerformed method for you to use.
    I've improved a few things here and there...
    1) You can't just cast the ActionEvent's source into a JComboBox!
    What if it was a JButton that fired the event? Then you would get ClassCastExceptions (I'm sure you did)
    So check for all options, what the source of the ActionEvent actually was...
    2) You can't assume the user will always type in valid data.
    So enclose the Integer and Double parse methods in try-catch brakcets.
    Then you can do something when you know that the user has entered invalid input
    (like tell him/her what a clumsy idiot they are !)
    3) As soon as user presses an item in any JComboBox, just re-calculate.
    I did this here by programmatically clicking the 'Calculate' button.
    Alternatively, you could have a 'calculate' method, which does everything inside the
    if(command==calculateButton) if-block.
    This will be called when:
    a)calculateButton is pressed
    b)when either of the JComboBoxes are pressed.
    public void actionPerformed (ActionEvent event)
            Object command = event.getSource ();
            if (command == calculateButton) //calculates mortgage payment
                int year = 0;
                double rate = 0;
                double mortgage = 0;
                double interest = 0;
                /* If user has input invalid data, tell him so
                and return (Exit from this method back to where we were before */
                try
                    year = Integer.parseInt (mortgageTerm.getSelectedItem ().toString ());
                    rate = new Double (interestRate.getSelectedItem ().toString ()).doubleValue ();
                    mortgage = new Double (mortgageAmount.getText ()).doubleValue ();
                    interest = rate / 100.0 / 12.0;
                catch (NumberFormatException nfe)
                    /* Display a message Dialogue box with a message */
                    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog (this, "Error! Invalid input!");
                    return;
                double monthly = mortgage * (interest / (1 - Math.pow (interest + 1, -12.0 * year)));
                NumberFormat myCurrencyFormatter;
                myCurrencyFormatter = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance (Locale.US);
                monthlyPayment.setText (myCurrencyFormatter.format (monthly));
            else if (command == clearButton) //clears all text fields
                /* Better than setting it to null (I think) */
                mortgageAmount.setText ("");
                //mortgageTerm.setText(null);
                //interestRate.setText(null);
                monthlyPayment.setText ("");
            else if (command == exitButton) //sets exit button
                System.exit (0);
            else if (command == mortgageTerm)
                /* Programmatically 'clicks' the button,
                As is user had clicked it */
                calculateButton.doClick ();
            else if (command == interestRate)
                calculateButton.doClick ();
            //JComboBox mortgageTerm = (JComboBox) event.getSource ();
            //String termYear = (String) mortgageTerm.getSelectedItem ();
        }Hope this solves your problems.
    I also hope you'll be able to learn from what I've indicated, so you can use similar things yourself
    in future!

  • Looping through an array to get the index for each measure in a combo box

    Hi folks,
    I am working on a web application that has two combo boxes, one for year (called yearcombo) and for measures (called myURL) for that selected year, and also two radiobuttons (in radioBtnGroup). I have two years and a bunch of measure for each year. I  have a map tool tip that when you mouse over the county you see a measure for that specific year. However I have a bunch of measures for each year and I want to be able to loop through the measures (which are in an array collection inside a combobox) so my "if" expression can find every selectedIndex and bring me the tool tip for that selected measure for that selected radio button. Right now I would have to create if statements for each measure (each selectedIndex inside the myURL combobox)and each radiobutton (inside the radioBtnGroup) instead of creating a if expression to get a map tip tool for each measure. I know I would have to create a loop to search for these indexes and enter that in the if expression and also change the graphic.attributes to reflect the right measure or index selected. Do you API for Flex wizards  can give me any tips on how to code this according to my code below ? Any  help is greatly appreciated! (the print scree is attached)
    Below is the code snippet:
    if (yearcombo.selectedItem.year == "2007" && myURL.selectedIndex == 0 && radioBtnGroup.selectedValue == 0)
    fLayer.definitionExpression = "DATA_YEAR_TXT like '2007'"
    var graphic:Graphic = Graphic(event.currentTarget);
    graphic.symbol = mouseOverSymbol;
    var htmlText:String = graphic.attributes.htmlText;
    var textArea:TextArea = new TextArea();
    try{
    textArea.htmlText = myURL.selectedItem.label + graphic.attributes.ForDirIndOut.toString()
    myMap.infoWindow.content=textArea
    myMap.infoWindow.label = graphic.attributes.NAME;
    myMap.infoWindow.closeButtonVisible = false;
    myMap.infoWindow.show(myMap.toMapFromStage(event.stageX, event.stageY));}

  • How to populate the second combo box by depending on the selection in 1st?

    I have two combo boxes, both of data in the lists come from the database. The list in the second will be changed when the selection is changed in the first one. I am trying to do query again in the ActionPerform function, unfortunately the list in second one doesn't change.
    I am learning Swing now, I really appreciate for any suggestions!
    Thanks

  • Simple combo box question

    I have Flash MX 2004 Pro. I want to create a
    movie/graphic/button ( not sure which one yet) of a county
    (obviously from a state map) and I want to have all of the counties
    (over 40) listed in a Combo Box. I would like the Combo box to
    automatically be updated/populated every time I create a
    movie/graphic/button of a county. I would like to be able to click
    on a county name in the combo box and have the county highlighted.
    While the graphic part is doable, I am asking for help with the
    scripts.
    One more thing: I have a text box that I want to have data
    displayed only for the specific county. So I am thinking of
    creating a text box that is invisible in the State swf but will be
    viewable when the county is selected (mouse over or thru the combo
    box). Do I have to use the scripts to make it viewable when the
    movie is selected?
    Is this even possible with my version of Flash and if so,
    does anyone have some codes I can look at?
    Thanks.

    As far as the text goes, there are several ways to do that.
    Simplest way is to make the text visible when rolled over and
    invisible when rolled out. That way you get the text positioned and
    formated the way you want. It isn't the best method in terms of
    maintenance. A better method is have one text clip that you can
    position in relation to the (x,y) coordinates of the highlighted
    county and pull the text for the county from an array. The latter
    requires more script but is easier to go back and change since all
    you do is update an array.
    I just noticed a line in the onRollOut
    this[this._parent._name + "menu"].selectedIndex = 0;
    that will serve you no purpose whatsoever. I missed deleting
    that from the script I modified to post to you. It doesn't hurt
    anything since it targets nothing you have

  • Newb deserving assistance with Adobe Javascript (check boxes and combo boxes)

    Hi, I'm a newb when it comes to javascript (using adobe acrobat pro 6.0).
    I am working on a form that will allow me to autofill checkboxes based off of information chosen. Ideally, I would like to have a selection from a combo box autofill/auto checkmark check boxes. Alternatively, I would be willing to just have different selections presented with check boxes that when filled, would auto checkmark other check boxes (I know how to do this one, but I am not sure how to clear the check boxes if the initial one is unchecked).
    I have the action button tied to the mouse up function. This just errors out.
    var Citrix = this.getField("Citrix")
    var Appro = this.getField("Appro")
    var SAS = this.getField("SAS")
    if (event.target.value=="Yes") {
    Citrix.checkThisBox = true
    Appro.checkThisBox = true
    SAS.checkThisBox = true
    else {
    Citrix.checkThisBox = false
    Appro.checkThisBox = false
    SAS.checkThisBox = false
    I have this that works, but I don't know how to clear the buttons when "Associate" is unchecked.
    if(this.getField("Associate").isBoxChecked(0));
    this.getField("Citrix").checkThisBox(0, true);
    this.getField("Appro").checkThisBox(0, true);
    this.getField("SAS").checkThisBox(0, true);
    The other way I was working on it, was to use a combo box to autofill/checkmark check boxes. But this code doesn't work either.
    function calculateTextField()
    // get the value of the combo box
    var comboValue = this.getField("Select").value;
    // get the state of the checkbox
    var isChecked = (this.getField("Citrix").value == "Yes");
    var textFieldValue = "";
    console.println(comboValue);
    if (isChecked)
    if (comboValue == 0)
    textFieldValue = "";
    if (comboValue == "Associate")
    (this.getField("Citrix").value == "Yes");
    else if (comboValue == "Specialist")
    (this.getField("Citrix").value == "Yes");
    else if (comboValue == "Team Leader")
    (this.getField("Citrix").value == "No");
    else
    (this.getField("Citrix").value == "No");
    else
    textFieldValue = "";
    this.getField("Select").value = textFieldValue;
    Can anyone please assist me with this?
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Hi Gene,
    Thank you for the response. Are you saying that my initial formula should look more like this; ?
    var Citrix = this.getField("Citrix")
    var Appro = this.getField("Appro")
    var SAS = this.getField("SAS")
    if (event.target.value=="Yes") {
    Citrix.checkThisBox = true
    Appro.checkThisBox = true
    SAS.checkThisBox = true
    else {
    if (event.target.value=="Off")
    Citrix.checkThisBox = true
    Appro.checkThisBox = true
    SAS.checkThisBox = true
    Thanks,
    Chris

  • Using IO to create a Combo Box

  • Populate 2nd combo box based on value selected in 1st combo box

    I am still using Acrobat 6 though I may be upgrading soon to Acrobat 8. I have a form with two combo boxes, the first "state" has values of MN and WI. Based on which value the user picks I would like to populate a "county" combo box with lists of counties that we deal with.
    Thanks,
    Gene

    One can set the option and export value using an arry:<br /><br />// document level script<br />// Master List of Lists <br />// Each entry in this object listeral is the name of a State <br />//Manually enter the State Names into the state field combo box <br />// The associated value is the item list, where each item is a name value pair, [<County> and [county code, zip code]] <br /><br />// state: ["county name", ["county code", "zip code"]]<br />var oStateNames = {MN: [["-", ["", ""] ], <br />                       ["St. Louis", ["MNStl", "55001"] ], <br />                       ["Carlton", ["MNSCrl", "55002"] ], <br />                       ["Pine", ["MNPin", "55003"] ],<br />                       ["Cook", ["MNCok", "55004"] ] <br />                       ], <br />                   WI: [["-", [" ", " "] ],<br />                        ["Douglas", ["WIDou", "55005"] ] ,<br />                        ["Bayfield", ["WIBay", "55006"] ],<br />                        ["Burnette", ["WIBur", "55007"] ],<br />                        ["Ashland", ["WIAsh", "55008"] ]<br />                       ]<br />                     }; <br /><br />//SetCountyEntries() on keystroke entry in state field <br />function SetCountyEntries() <br />{ <br />   if(event.willCommit) <br />   { <br />      // Get the new counties list from the Master List <br />      // Since the selection is being committed, <br />      // event.value contains the State name <br />      var lst = oStateNames[event.value]; <br />      // Clear the county list if there are no counties for the selected state <br />      this.getField("ee.address.county").clearItems();<br />      this.resetForm(["ee.address.code", "ee.address.zip"]);<br />      if( (lst != null) && (lst.length > 0) )<br />           this.getField("ee.address.county").setItems(lst); // set opiton and export value<br />   } <br />} <br />//  end document level script<br /><br />For the combo box "ee.address.county" one can create an array from the export value to populate the county code and zip code<br /><br />// custom keystroke for county combo box<br />if(event.willCommit & event.value != "") {<br />// split county and zip codes<br />var aCodes = this.getField(event.target.name).value.split(",");<br />this.getField("ee.address.code").value = aCodes[0];<br />this.getField("ee.address.zip").value = aCodes[1];<br />}<br />// end custom key stroke code

  • Trying to filter an entire database using a combo box or text box

    Hi,
    I am looking to create a combo box with rows vice columns, then I would like to create a macro or some for form of filter that gives me the option to search within each or all of the selections.
    I have created a search function (using a textbox and the button features) that allows me to search for anything in my database using applyfilter. The problem that I ran into with this was that when I hit the might work, but only the first line worked.
    So I tried to use a combination box to create a filter of the fields that I want to view for the particular search I need, but I want to select row headers vice columns of information. For example if I have five fields of: Last Name, First Name, SSN, Document
    number and Unique ID.
    I want a combination box to show the following field header when I click the drop down option.
    (Last Name
    First Name
    SSN
    Documentation Number
    Unique ID)
    Then I would to apply a macro filter feature for files within theses individual fields. I am just getting started in VBA and using Macros, so any help would be awesome!!
    If I am too far off target please direct me back, I tend to over think things.
    Thanks in Advance

    Dirk Goldgar, I tried to you use the suggested method you gave me. Part of the problem I was having was that I wanted to view the field list, which I now know is very possible thanks to you, but only wanted it to show as one single list of fields.
    So took the information you gave me and went on to create a list box instead. I later found out why this was not working either.
    In what way was it not working?  You can do the same thing with a list box as I described for a combo box.
    I have relationships of tables attached.
    I don't understand what you mean by that last statement, or how it's relevant to the discussion.  Do you mean you have multiple different tables that you might want to filter?  So you would need to either (a) first need to select a table from a
    list of tables in your database, and only then select a field in that table, or else (b) have a table listing all the data elements you might want to search, with the table and field name of each, and base a list box on that -- then the code to search would
    know what table to select from, as well as what field to filter on.
    So this info that you provided was very helpful. I will continue to go through the link you provided.
    So I can quickly sum up what I need:
    1. A dropdown box that allows me to search any Field List
    2. A textbox that allows me to type in the searchable information for that particular field.
    3. Or some way to build a filter function for the whole list, with a textbox to search the key words.
    This is all still a bit unclear to me, because I don't know whether you want to search a particular table, or any of many possible tables in the database.
