Hi Jack and GS peeps,

 

Help!

 

I'm successfully using this tween below to animate a number gauge up and down depending on the value I pass into condition1a. The problem is when I pull the number in from XML it adds to the value already in the output field instead of sending the gauge to the proper number. I don't know why it acts differently when I pull in from XML. Do I have to tell java the number from XML is a string or somthing? Any ideas?

 

TweenMax.to(obj, .5, {value:condition1a, roundProps:["value"], ease:Linear.easeNone, onUpdate:function() {

output.innerHTML = obj.value;

output2.innerHTML = obj.value;

tl.tweenTo(condition1a); // < this timeline tweens to the correct place, only the output number adds incorrectly.

}});

 

 

When I set my number gauge value variable like this is works fine:

window.condition1a = 27.28;

 

 

When I pull from XML like shown below its act differently.

var scenarioA1=xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("ThroughputGauge");

window.condition1a = (scenarioA1.getElementsByTagName("scenarioA1")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue);

 

When I trace the variable is comes up as 27.28 so I know the XML is getting the correct number into the function.

alert(condition1a);

 

 

XML structure sample:

<ThroughputGauge>

<scenarioA1>27.28</scenarioA1>

</ThroughputGauge>

 

 

How do I get the XML passed variable to act the same as the one I set in java? Thanks everyone!

Ok I got it.  Thanks for listening! 

 

var scenarioA2=xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("ThroughputGauge");

var condition2a = parseFloat((scenarioA2.getElementsByTagName("scenarioA2")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue));
 
window.condition2a = condition2a;
