FLASH: Flash Calendar

[Brian Mays]

Sending this on behalf of a coworker who's not subscribed to the

list...he's stuck in a Flash project he's working on.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I am working on a movie that when you input the date it will tell you

the day it falls on.


My code is logically sound I believe however I am used to coding in C,

or C++:

however I am having problems changing the inputed strings into a Var

plus I need to work with just integers.


If you all would pls look at my code and swf I would appreciate any

input into my

problems


My  Pseudo code is

1. read in month, day, year

2. convert month to entry(for the month button  Jan=1; Feb=4;mar=4,

apr=0........)


3. t= entry+day+year+6

4. t=t+year div 4 - year div 100 +year div 4000 - year div 3000

5. adjust t for jan and feb of leap year

6. compare t to day of the week and print day of tthe week


Here is my syntax code when you hit Enter


on (release) {

    set (int (t), month+day+year+6);

    set (int (t), t+year/4 -year/100+year/400-year/3000);

    if ((year%4==0)&&(month<=2)) {

        set (int (t), int (t)-1);

    }

    if ((year%100==0) ) {

        if ((year%4==0)&&(month<=2)) {

            set (int (t), int (t)-1);

        }

    }

    set (dow, int (t)%7);

    if (dow==0) {

        set (dow, "Saturday");

    }

    if (dow==1) {

        set (dow, "Sunday");

    }

    if (dow==2) {

        set (dow, "Monday");

    }

    if (dow==3) {

        set (dow, "Tuesday");

    }

    if (dow==4) {

        set (dow, "Wednesday");

    }

    if (dow==5) {

        set (dow, "Thursday");

    }

    if (dow==6) {

        set (dow, "Friday");

    }

    gotoAndPlay (3);

}


Thanks,

Jeff Beasley
