RE: [flasher] HELP~~!!! ~~ Any Flash 5'ers out there~~!!!

[Patrick McNeil]

I used the following code. But it does not include the decimals. It assumes

a string with no decimals. Would be a good starting point I suppose. The

code I got it from was original posted with a decimal handler, but it was

flash 4. See it below


Flash 5 (no decimals):


// Comma Parser, just pass in variable "input", and use returned variable

"formatted"

formatted = "";

i = 0;

while (i < length (math.floor(input)) -1) {

    formatted =  substring ( input, length (math.floor(input)) - i, 1) add

formatted;

    temp = math.floor ((i+1)/3);

    temp2 = (i+1)/3;

    if (temp == temp2) {

        formatted = "," add formatted;

    }

    i = i + 1;

}

formatted = substring (math.floor(input), 1, 1) add formatted;

formatted = "$" add formatted;


Flash 4(with decimals):



Set Variable: "subInput" = (input - Int (input) + .005) * 100

Set Variable: "subInput2" = Int (subInput) / 100

Set Variable: "formatted" = ""

Set Variable: "i" = 0

Loop While (i < length (Int (input)) - 1)

      Set Variable: "formatted" = Substring (input, length (Int (input)) -

i, 1) & formatted

      If (Int ((i + 1) / 3) = (i + 1)/3)

            Set Variable: "formatted" = "," & formatted

      End If

      Set Variable: "i" = i + 1

End Loop

Set Variable: "formatted" = Substring (Int (input), 1, 1) & formatted

If (length (subinput2) = 3)

      Set Variable: "formatted" = formatted & Substring (subInput2, 2, 3) &

"0"

Else

      Set Variable: "formatted" = formatted & Substring (subInput2, 2, 3)

End If


Hope this helps.
