ActionScript 1/2 :: Styling Checkbox In Quiz File?
Mar 16, 2012
I have been creating an e-learning package using RapidIntake software. They have a quiz file that is used throughout the course. I've downloaded the source files to try to change the font size of the checkbox component but its not working the normal way?I've tested it by putting another checkbox in the middle which you can see in my picture. But the same code isn't working for the original checkboxes.The code I've used is est.setStyle("fontSize",16);Checkbox2.setStyle("fontSize",16);The test checkbox is the one in the middle thats working.
This PHP contact form works well and is very simple. I have one checkbox in the fla file. However, it keeps displaying 'No' in the email message field, whether the checkbox is selected or not. It should display 'Yes' if the checkbox is selected, and 'No' if the checkbox is unselected.Here is the PHP:
I'm trying to apply some simple CSS coding to an html'd dynamic text box, from *inside* Flash, with AS, rather than from an external .css doc.This code below should work, but doesn't. (I tried adding a period in front of customClass--nuthin'; I also tried taking out the fontFamily altogether, as I'm on a Mac and I've heard bad things.
/* var styles = new TextField.StyleSheet(); styles.setStyle("p", {textDecoration:"none", color:"#000000"}); styles.setStyle("customClass", {fontFamily:"_serif",fontWeight:'bold', color:"#FF0000", fontSize:'24px'});
Anyone know where to start thinking about logic for an XML quiz with multiple correct answers, that when the user gets the question right, that question is removed from the random array of questions so we never need to answer it again?
I am having a nightmare using CSS to style HTML within a dynamic textfield in my flash doc. From what i now understand after much trial and error and reading online, CSS doesn't even work properly in flash even for the tags that it does understand (which are few and far between anyway). For some reason my layout is getting completely screwed up in certain scenarios (predominantly when there are images present too) when i hover over links (which are styled in an external CSS file). If i remove the external CSS styling (which only contains the following simple code):
Then everything works fine (but no links are underlined as standard or on hover). Does anyone know of any way to style the links without using an external CSS file (all i want to do is have no underline as standard and then underline them on hover). As this is from user input into a text editor I cannot place these links manually on the page in flash as they could be anywhere, I need a way of parsing the HTML and then displaying it accordingly.
I am writing a class in AS 3.0 to read in a xml file to create content for a quiz. Once I instantiate the xml obj and pass in a string that determines the xml name in the constructor for the xml class I read in the xml and populate some arrays. Evidently in AS 3.0 you have listeners for reading in xml, which is the problem I am having. Once the object is instantiated I try to call on a method called getArray, but the XML hasnt finished being read in and I get a compile error. Error below: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.at xmlReader_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()
I am creating an interactive cd which basically runs a blank projector which then loads in various swf files from fscommand folder as and when required.
Part of the CD is a quiz - created using one of the standard flash templates. When this is loaded into the main projector as a swf file it runs perfectly until it gets to the "results page" - at this point it returns the blank templates e.g Answered = 0.
If you play the swf file on it's own it works fine. If you play the file as a projector on it's own it works fine too.
The problem only occurs when it is loaded into the main projector on a level above the root.
I am trying to import data from an xml file and use it in a quiz program. currently the quiz program uses an array like so:\
wordList = ("John,Susan,Mary,Margaret,James,Sam,Ursula,Nelly, Peter").split(","); My xml file is in the form: <list><word>John</word><word>Susan</word><word>Margaret</word><word>James</word><word>Sam</word><word>Ursula</word><word>Nelly</word><word>Peter</word>

I am using datagrid and added 3 columns to it in flex project. Data is provided to each column by using itemrenderer. Itemrenderer is checkbox for each column. Name of columns are col1,col2,col3. I want to make the checkbox in col1 selected when i selects the checkbox in col2. But i am not able to do this.
I need a datagrid, which contains checkbox (4 no's) without multiple selection. And I also need a text area which should contain the selected checkbox's label/data. I tried using arraycollection but I am not getting.
I have a tricky problem. I've been working on a flash quiz that uses a xml file to generate questions in a random order. Got that working fine. The Fla parses open the file and loads the nodes into dynamic text boxes.
I want to make a simple tick box questionaire in Flash (AS2) that stores data to a local text file when the user has submitted the form. So simple stuff like are you Male of Female. Is it possible for flash to store this information somewhere. It is for touch screens in an exhibition space so ideally it wouldn't be on the internet.
I have a movieclip that contains some checkboxes "preferences_mc". I have an xml file that is loaded in and has an element called "isUnique" which has children with unique names like id, title, version and such. What I am trying to accomplish is for the form I am building to be able to select/deselect each checkbox and save the selection out to an xml file. I have gotten that far and everything is working perfectly. My problem is that after I load the xml back in and try to set the checkbox.selected = xmlPrefs.isUnique.id to get the checkbox to use the data from the xml file to decide whether it is selected or deselected, it ALWAYS selects the box whether it is true or false. I have tried everything. xmlPrefs.isUnique.id traces out as false which is correct but the screen still shows the checkbox selected.

I have the values load from a file, however the problem i am having is that it isnt selecting the values loaded from the file when i check on the settings. am i using the correct as2 code for it? i even tried using setValue, that is listed in the flash livedocs.
I have a file that is displaying .xml info in Flash. I styled the .xml document outside of flash w/ .xslt. It works fine outside of Flash but doesn't work when displayed inside of Flash- Is there a way to make this work
I'm creating accessible content for a html elearning module. I'm including video, which I have successfully imported into flash, and added captions to by linking a XML document.The issue I am having is that my styling in the XML isn't working in flash, and my captions play in a tiny horrible font, making it very difficult for people to read, therefore not making it accessible content.I've used two tutorials online to create these styles in XML but neither are working.I'm using CS5 Flash and Dreamweaver.XML content is as follows: (I have removed my content for the script)
I basically have the same question as bder on the actionscript forums, namely if I can have my text anti-aliased if it is using an embedded font (Myriad Pro) to assign it to the htmlText property of a TextField and styling that with CSS. Everything works fine with the text embedding and styling (the font is the one I want, and all its variations - bold, italic - are shown correctly), except that it looks bad, i.e. not anti-aliased. Of course, I have tried setting the antyAliasType and gridFitType properties to all possible combinations.
I have a dataGrid component in flex. My grid has few rows. I simply want to make the last row bold. I just can't figure how to do it. I thought about an idea : create a factory that gets parameters so that i can pass the itemRenderer the total count of rows. But, i don't know how to check the current row in the itemRenderer itself (and compare it to the total rows).
I have a carsousel that uses xml to bring in 3 parts to the finished .swf ... an image; a 'tooltip'; some text. This all works fine and I have no problems with the code YET as soon as I try and add <b></b> to any part of the imported text section, to get it to appear bold or even italic, everything disappears. (The code is all taken from the 3D Carousel tutorial provided by your very cool site BTW
[Code]....
The text feeds into a dynamic text field called theText and this is in frame 1 of the fla. Like i said already, everything works fine the way it is set up now, the only downside is that I cannot style the imported text in any way and i would very much like to be able to make certain parts bold and even italic. I have a feeling it is the way the xml file is set up that could be causing the issues but I do not know another way of doing the same thing but allowing the styling.
I need to know some way to edit a local xml file from within flash. I know php is involved, but I don't know anything further than that. I've been searching all day, and I can't find even a single tutorial. Can anyone link me to a tutorial, resource file, or code that I can use?
I have inherited a flash file which pulls dynamic text from an XML document. The XML relies heavily on node attributes. I need to add underlining, italics, etc to some of the text in these attributes and I can't figure out how to do it![code]In the text attribute, I need to italicize the word "italicized" and underline the word "underlined".I have styled whole nodes before using HTML text and CDATA, but can't figure out how to get the same effect within an attribute.
I am having a problem styling a dynamic text (see code below) as the font and font size are not working on our movie. Can you spot, what we could be doing wrong?
According to this webpage, the htmlText property in TextArea can handle CSS text style if using span tag. I want to format multiple tags in my code. Something like:
var tags:TextArea = new TextArea(); tags.htmlText = "<span style='color: rgb(165, 150, -90); font-size: 0.955882610016677em'>street</span>,[code]............
It only gives me plain text. I was wondering if it is supported in the htmlText property and how do I get around this.
I created a TabNavigator with a bunch of NavigatorContent inside it, and want to skin just the buttons of the tabs themselves. So I added a skinClass, but looks like in the documentation, there's no skin part to target the button specifically.
Do I have to style the mx:TabNavigator itself to accomplish this? I was hoping not since I don't know how to style mx components and am more comfortable with styling spark.
