Loading a .CSV File
No commentsMy next project involves loading of a .csv file and then having the ability to execute methods to the data. I have searched around and found this sweet project:

ProgressBarCsvConversionExample.html
I should also mention that since my next project will be based more on data, that Flex would be a better application for this… but the following is the Actionscript 3:
package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.net.URLLoader;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.IEventDispatcher;
public class LoadCSV extends Sprite
{
public function LoadCSV():void {
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
configureListeners(loader);
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.???.com/path/to/csv/file.csv");
try {
loader.load(request);
} catch (error:Error) {
trace ("Unable to load requested document.");
}
}
private function configureListeners(dispatcher:IEventDispatcher):void {
dispatcher.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
}
private function completeHandler(event:Event)
{
trace ( event.target.data );
}
}
}
