I have 6 input texts on stage and I want to compare this to an array with the right answers, so far so good. The problem came when even if I put the right answer it considered it bad. After some hours and thanks to the debug, I managed to see that a line break was being added to the value of the input text only when I clicked on it to type, if I enter the input text by tapping the "tab" key, everything works just fine.The input texts are named r0 to r5, here is the comparison code:
ActionScript Code:
for(var i=0;i<respuestaCorrecta.length;i++)
{
trace('Answer: ' + eval('r'+i).text.toUpperCase() + ' Against: ' + respuestaCorrecta[i]);
if(respuestaCorrecta[i] == eval('r'+i).text.toUpperCase())

If I want to load dynamic text without having to press a button. I want it to load in the first frame of my movie automatically when it loads. What should I do? What I have so far on a button is :
on (press) {
loadText = new loadVars();
loadText.load("home.txt");
loadText.onLoad = function() {
[code]....
I used this AS to load external text (load on its own).
loadTexts = new loadVars();
loadTexts.load("speaknote.txt");
loadTexts.onLoad = function() {
textBox.text = this.speaknote;
};
How can I modify this AS so that it will load when I press a button. I try to change it to this
loadTexts = new loadVars();
loadTexts.load("speaknote.txt");
buttonToLoad.onPress = function() {
textBox.text = this.speaknote;
};
Can someone point me in the direction of a tutorial to scroll a text field down and up with the press of the 'down' and 'up' button? I realize this is very simple, so if you could be so kind to take 20 seconds and let me know.
View 3 RepliesThe problem is: When I press my buttons twice, the text in the scroller disappears.Everything is set so that It shouldnt be possible to press the same button twice though.The situation in short is as follows. I have 4 scenes and 4 buttons, every button linking to respectively another scene / page. The buttons all are in movieclips. I have 4 different movieclips all containing all buttons. For the page movieclip the-button in the movieclip getsœswitched o by ungrouping it and so on, and so on.On every scene I put the movieclip, with the correct button switched of, on top, with thenction. The other movieclips are made invisible by the visible = true˜delete this.onEnterFrame; function.Im not a develloper but a graphic designer. Dont know much about AS2.

I wrote a code that's suppose to change the number in a dynamic text when I press a button,<br>What did I do wrong?
Object(root).currentNum=1;
Object(root).pageNum.text = Object(root).currentNum;
Object(root).arrowLeft.addEventListener(MouseEvent .CLICK, arrowLeftClick);
function arrowLeftClick (e:MouseEvent):void{
Object(root).currentNum-=1;
}
now it's only showing me the number 1.
I *know* this is simple. I've read every thread on this board pertaining to this (including senocular's Best Of thread), done everything there and this still doesn't work and I can't see why.
I feel like an idiot even asking, because I've seen the examples and lengthy tutorials.
All I want to do, is change the color of a dynamic text field when you press a button. But I want the name of the field to be a variable.
Now, this is what's there:
1. the variable "_root.expinttype1" is equal to "branch" and is set elsewhere.
1a. There is an existing dynamic field called "branch" on screen.
2. On the button release I set the format:
[Code]....
Why? I set a dummy variable txt = _root.expinttype1; and even threw it into a text field to verify the data, and it shows "branch", so why doesn't this work?

I can't seem to get the buttons to fill in the second text field.

View 7 RepliesI know how to make a button and all.. but what do I do to make it go to the next scene?
scene 1: Startsidan
scene 2: Sidan
I made a frontpage and when I click on the picture I want it to go to scene 2, where it enters the inside.
the button is called PortalenKnappen, I want to be able to just press on it and it will go to the "sidan(scene 2)" that's empty at the moment.
what would I have to write? I've tried "portalenKnappen.onPress nextScene("sidan", 1"); but it doesn't work.
I'm wondering if there's a way to temporarily disable keyboard shortcuts in Flash? The problem is that some key presses don't register when I'm testing a movie in flash because flash itself registers the key. For example pressing "B" while I'm testing a movie activates the Brush tool but doesn't trigger an event in the actual movie. When I publish the movie and try it in a browser it works fine.
