Hey Guys, Code is provided below. I have an example or what works and what doesn’t. I am about to throw my computer out the window.
This code works:
[COLOR=#222222]function paCountyHighlight(targetCounty) {[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#222222]var myColor:Color = new Color(this.usa.pa_counties.Washington);[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#222222]myColor.setRGB(_root.hoverColor);[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#222222]_root.countyLabel = targetCounty+", PA"_root.displayCountyLabel();[/COLOR]
When I change it to support my needs it does not work! I have tried hours on end to get this going:
[COLOR=#222222]function paCountyHighlight(targetCounty) {[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#222222]var countyColored = this.usa.pa_counties.targetCounty; [/COLOR]
[COLOR=#222222]var myColor:Color = new Color(countyColored); [/COLOR]
[COLOR=#222222]myColor.setRGB(_root.hoverColor);[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#222222]_root.countyLabel = targetCounty+", PA";[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#222222]_root.displayCountyLabel(); [/COLOR]
[COLOR=#222222]}[/COLOR]
You should be able to see what I am trying to do. I am trying to use the parameter rather than the hard-coded county name. I tried a million different ways to call this county to change color. I even tried the setTransform method. PLEASE shed some light on this for me.
