I have started to use input texts and passing them to outputs etc.I was wondering, is there a way in AS2, to, for example if someone enters a value that's between 150 and 200. Accepts it, and the code somehow recognizes the range if value from 150 to 200, perform a function (for example setProperty on something to visible true) a different function would apply if someone enters a value between 100 to 150.
View 10 RepliesOK, I've encountered a new challenge with the Math lesson I'm creating. I'd like the students to input an answer into a text box, then press an enter button. After they press the button, I want great_work.mp3 to play if the answer is correct, and nice_try.mp3 to play if the answer isn't correct. Here's the code I've been using to check an answer and move students to a different frame depending on an answer typed into a text box.
tens_enter1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClick33);
function buttonClick33(event:MouseEvent):void{
if (parseInt(tens_enter1.text) == 7) {
//this line should play great_work.mp3

I've created a form-like input to receive user input in the form of text in a frame. Now, I would like to pass that input into an external text file. I hope to get help to implement this. Let's assume that this app will be only used locally and not over the web.
View 0 RepliesI have another question for the masses out there regarding trying to input values from a text input box to a custom class. I currently have a custom class named Company with properties that correspond to values in a MySQL database.
So I created an input UI on the client application that calls out for Address, Name, Zip, Phone, etc. - Then there is a button to submit to values to the database for creation. Here's my question:
How do I take each individual textinput.text property and 'mesh' them all together to a Company object to send to the server? The PHP that is written takes in an argument like this:
public function createNewCompany (Company $item) { .......
So is that even the right way to send them in? Or???
There are a total of 11 things (properties) that need to be submitted.
I am like a new-born-newbie when it comes to Action Script 3.0 (or any other version for that matter). I've been trying to learn it by myself for the past week and a half using manuals and other sources but it's not so easy as there are many concepts that take some getting used to (I've never done programming before). So I ask of anyone who is kind enough to give me a hint or point me in the right direction. I am sure this will seem like a very easy and probably stupid question for the well-informed but it has been eluding me for the past 4 days.
I am making a website (I should say it's pretty much finished except for this one detail) it's simple and short. Nothing very fancy. There are 8 buttons in total for the main navigation (4 buttons in English and 4 in Chinese, each language group in their own set of frames)
the button that serves as a link to the Chinese translated version of the site is supposed to go to a particular page, depending on which page the user is in at the moment (example: if it is in the portfolio page in English, when clicking on the Chinese button it should go to the portfolio page in Chinese and so on). Likewise with the English button in the Chinese version pages.[code]...
I want to be able to add the sum of 3 input text boxes and have the total be displayed in another text box. figure I set a variable and do something along the lines of: Number = "_root.input1 + _root.input2 + _root.input3";Or do I have to do this another way?Also where should I put the code? In a button? Or can I stick it in the frame to save complications of users clicking on a button.
View 5 RepliesI have a Input text area set up for a contact form. I want the area to display "Email", and for the alpha to be 50%. When you click on the text field to put in your email address, I want the original value to be removed and for the alpha to reset to 100%. I've been able to accomplish this fine so far using the code below; the problem is that I only want the value to become blank again if the user hasn't entered in information yet (this way if the user wants to come back and change something, it won't all be deleted when the text area is clicked on). I tried using an "if" statement, but Flash seems to just ignore it and perform the function either way.
Here is the code that I came up with:
email.text = "email";
email._alpha = 50;
email.onSetFocus = function() {
email.text = "";
email._alpha = 100;

I have a site that has several different loops playing in the background. I want to control them with a single sound icon.What I was thinking of doing was setting a variable value when the sound was played - something like soundplaying=loop1.Then, when the speaker icon is clicked to mute the sound, it would be something like this:
Code:
onRelease {
var (soundplaying value):Sound = new Sound();

I have an issue with font scaling of a dynamic text box.
Currently i have one input box named input_1 with a variable attached to it named "choc_1".
Also, i have a dynamic text box named dynamic_1 with variable "choc_1".
When the user types something on the input box then the dynamic box changes instantly and displays what the user has written.
auto scale-size the fonts to a smaller size if the user types many letters.
The input_1 box has a 13 character limit. My initial font size is 200, i want to scale down so when the user types 10 letters they fit the box and they don't go out of screen. I want to use one line, so wrap or multiline is not possible.
here's a code that i'm trying to fix but i can't get the dynamic box to change:

View 2 Repliesthe last of many problems, is that at the very end of the test, you're shown your score, and you have the option to type your name in a text box and click "save". Doing so will apply you score data (time elapsed, date, correct answers and percentage) along with the name you typed in, and output in a form, that you can save or print off, or whatever. The problem is, the input text box will not let you type in it. If you mouse over it, the mouse stays a pointer, you don't get the text tool. If you click on it, the cursor appears for a split second after you release the mouse button, but you cannot type anything in it.This is the actionscript for the output form:
Code:
//
function saveRecord(record:String, field:String, now:Object, score:Object):Void {

I have need of loops / nested loops that pick different figures depending on where you are in the loop. The whole function needs to run through 'ml' times. 'ml' is a dynamic figure. Loop 1 = While the loop is within the first 12 iterations, 'exconemp' must equal 100. For iterations 13 - 24, 'exconemp' must equal 102.5, for 25 - 36 it will be 105.06, for 37 - 48 it will be 107.69. This needs to change every 12th iteration until it has reached 'ml'. The calculation takes the value of the previous 'exconemp' and then multiplies that by 0.025.
Loop 2 = While the loop is within the first 120 iterations, 'abc' must equal 0.015 and any further iterations must use 0.01. This must also work in a way to figure out whether 'ml' is higher or lower than 120 and work accordingly. My main issue is this - how do I get the loops to run through as this: While the iteration is < 12, do this, THEN take the final figure (12th iteration) and start on 13 - 24, do this THEN etc etc. How do I produce a THEN statement? I can get the code to pick up the final values, but not change along the way.

i have a dynamic text field that loads a variable into it (just a simple text file). this text file will be updated on occasion. i also have a movie clip to be positioned below the text field, however i want the movie clip to change position depending on how much text is in the text field so there isnt a large gap and so they dont overlap. is this possible? i tried the following actionscript to adjust the size of the text field depending on the amount of text. textField2.autosize = "center"; however i have no idea how to get the y position of the movie clip to adjust accordingly.
View 10 RepliesI'm loading data values from an external XML file and I want to swap them with other ones in order to show the latter further on in the movie. As an example, I have the following data in the XML file:
Code:
<set label='Epson'>

<set label='Toshiba'>

They will appear in a random order but only once in each graph. In essence, I need something that takes the XML label attribute and swaps it with an other value before sending it further on to the rest of the movie for processing. It would be more practical to do the swapping in the server app that writes the xml file before it is written but that is not possible so I need to do that search and replace when I load the xml in Flash...
Edit: I could use even something like open the xml - search and replace values - save to new xml

I'm trying to set up a calculator for a couple of formulas I need to use for some schoolwork. I thought it would be a lot easier if I could just put the numbers in there and hit enter.I can't figure out how to transfer the numbers from the input box to the dynamic box though =/. I figured I'd try to get going really easy, just do a input box, when you click on a button, a dynamic box displays whatever is in the input box. I cant get it to work though .

this.btn.onRelease = function(){
