If possible I would like to tile an image or MovieClip along a line using the standard moveTo() and lineTo() methods, The lines are directional so need to show something similar to >>>>>>>>>>>>>.

I've been struggling with this problem for far to long now, and I'm guessing the solution is quite easy. In my Flex application, I've got a component that extends UIComponent where I'm loading images at runtime and try to display them.

I want to split a number using regex. I have a number like xyz (x and y are single digits, z can be a 2 or three digit number), for example 001 or 103 or 112. I want to split it into separate numbers. This can be done, if I'm not wrong by doing split("",3); This will split the number (saved as string, but I don't think it makes differen...
I'm currently building a custom Flash player that will play streaming video from an FMS. Everything is working 100%. However, I would like to optimize the way the player seeks from one part of the video to another.

I am trying to find the generic links in strings. I've found a very handy regex on RegExr, in the community expressions: (https?://)?(www\.)?([a-zA-Z0-9_%]*)\b\.[a-z]{2,4}(\.[a-z]{2})?((/[a-zA-Z0-9_%]*)+)?(\.[a-z]*)?(:\d{1,5})? I tried to use it and it returns null, although the same string tested on RegExr works fine: var linkRegEx:...
