ActionScript 2.0 :: Activating Keypad At Beginning Of Website
Dec 14, 2009
I'm building a website that has the option of using the keypad to navigate the menu. If I test in flash I can use the keypad right at the beginning (if I press the right arrow it expands the first menu). However once I upload the sight, I have to click on the screen before I can activate the event listener. I use a seperate swf to preload it but even that when I test in flash works off the bat when the right arrow key is pressed.

I want to create some AS to disable and enable a button.Let's call this ButtonX. I want this button to appear disabled at first, and then allow the user the option of enabling this button(ButtonX) by clicking another button. Let's call this ButtonY. I cannot get this to work. I am attaching the code I am trying. I have this AS added to ButtonY and ButtonX is the instance name for the button I want to de-activate-activate.

I need to create a simple keypad. When using an embedded font in a dymanic text field I'm getting a strange result. I'm using .appendText in a function like this for each of the numbers:
function button1Press(event:MouseEvent):void {
MySolution.appendText("1");
}
[Code]....
In most cased when I press a second button, both numbers change to the second button that was pressed. Press the two and "2" is displayed. Then press four and it changes to "44". When using system fonts this doesn't occurr. This behavior only happens on the iPad. It's fine in the test window on my computer.

I'm creating a onscreen keypad and so far Ive got this code which only outputs single values - Im looking to get it so each time you click the button ,it adds the value to the previous value like entereing a password.[code]I was thinking it might be easier creating a string variable and updating the string with every click of each value.

I have a project that involves taking user input from a keyboard/numeric keypad. The script I wrote detects when the user actually enters a numeral in the text area, and replaces it with step-by-step with a series of letters and numbers in a similar fashion to keypad input on a phone. Everyone else's solution assumes that the user is A.) On an actual mobile device, and B.) That the LAST character is the one that should be replaced in the series.
Whereas, in my case, the user can use standard keyboard/numeric keypad input. Moreover, the caret should be able to move to any arbitrary position within a given string of text, and not just to the end of that string. My script works for the most part, except for some reason, the caret advances on its own without me/the user telling it to, and from what I can see, there's nothing in the code to allow for this:
Code:
var _1:String = "1@._-";
var _2:String = "2abc";
var _3:String = "3def";
var _4:String = "4ghi";
var _5:String = "5jkl";
[Code] .....
Lastly; my code does not account for when a user presses a DIFFERENT number than the one that they are currently pressing--in which case the caret should naturally advance automatically to allow for a new numeral to be inserted. My example is attached.

I'm interested in creating number/telephone keypad, but I can get multiple numbers to append to each other. I creating a simple little app where the user "punches in" an amount from an on-screen number keypad. When the user presses 5-0-0, I'd like it to set the variable to "500".
The only method I'v tried (or know how to do) is:
on(press){set("varNumber1",1)} - But this only allows me one number at a time.
Is there any exisiting code out there - how to append the numbers to each other.

I've gotten code that would circle through this with menu without an array, but I have been looking trying to complete it for the sake of better learning about arrays.
I have 3 buttons and I want to use the up, down, arrow keys to cycle through the buttons. So far I have the code to switch the up state once they are clicked on but I am unsure how to incorporate the navigational aspect into the array and have it cycle through.
Below I have posted my file with actionscript. Here is the actionscript set up right now:
[AS]btn1.gotoAndStop(1);
btn2.gotoAndStop(1);
btn3.gotoAndStop(1);

1) Using the number keypad, the user pushes a series of numbers to an array.
2) Lookup() is called to identify which "code" has been entered.
Code:
myArray:Array= new Array(1,2,3,4);
lookup();
function lookup() {
switch (myArray) {

I'm trying to build a flash keypad that fills in input text boxes when you press a button.I have two input text fields. I can assign each button a number and tell it to display that number in the text field when pressed. for example:
Code:
but1.onPress=function(){
InputText1.text += 1
}

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

I have a simple movie clip of fading in text displaying on page with a sound. also have a button that allows user to go to the next frame. It is an exercise for students that basically goes like this: object presented in each frame, spelling (text) for that object fades in on mc with sound attached to mc, then button activates to let them move on to next. Since they are trigger happy, I don't want the button that allows to move on to activate on the frame until AFTER the movieclip and it's sound have played out (which is like 2 seconds so not a long wait) - otherwise, they would just keep clicking next and not listen to the material presented (it's very young children).
How do I set this up? I knew it's likely very simple, but I'm a newbie. Of course, I could always just do it on the timeline, but I have a ton of material, so am trying to use actionscript to be more efficient. for even younger kids, am considering setting this up so they can move to next frame through any keypress. I know how to set up a certain key, but not ANY key.

I' am building a web site where i have a navigation which also works by pressing the (4) keyboard buttons, up, right, down, left. When the web site loads the keyboard navigation works only after i click somewhere on the screen.
The same things happens in Safari, Firefox and I.E.Any thoughts about how can i make this work without the need to click somewhere on screen before it works?

How do I stop a script from running, or remove it from a swf at a specific frame, (on its own layer "actions") and then start it again, or script it again on another frame further down the timeline?If I try and put the same script on another layer, past the stop(); or anywhere for that matter, flash gives me a duplicate function definition error.Lets say my swf is embedded in an html and its url is abc.com. When you navigate to that url the swf plays, all scripts work, buttons work to link to frame anchors back and forth within the swf and all is fine. As long as you remain at abc.com and link with a gotoAndPlay(frame), or gotoAndStop(frame) function from the script internally in the swf.However lets say one of those buttons goes to dce.com (urlRequest... dce.com...) essentially navigating away from the swf, .and at dce.com there is a link to go back to abc.com/index.html#frame, when you choose to navigate back to that frame in the swf, it does, but the script no longer works.
The script is on all anchor frames, and works intially in the swf when you play the movie for the first time, the movie stops (stop();) at a specific frame, and continues to navigate around to specific frame anchors and back and forth, the script continues to work as long as you are within the movie so to speak. However if you decide to go to dce.com, essentially leaving the movie and then at dce.com there is a link back to a specific frame, when I link back to the swf, from dce.com, the script no longer functions?I cannot imagine this is not something that quite a few people use, a combination of flash pages and html pages and interlinking them back and forth, I just cannot find ANY info searching exhaustively on why the script will not work after returning to a swf frame after navigating away to anywhere else and then back to the swf frame needed.

I have a game I am working on currently, and say I have an animation that plays (this is in a seperate mc) when you click. So it's basically a function. Anyway, one the animation plays through inside the mc, the last frame I put:
ActionScript Code:
stop();
gotoAndStop(1)
After this, I added five or so frames on a seperate layer with another animation on it, put the same code on the last frame, and gave the first keyframe of this second animation the label name "reload".If I then go back to the main stage, how would I code it so that if, for example, I press the down key, it would play that particular frame label?

I was given a .FLA containing a banner and was asked to create an input text field and a button that, when clicked, opens a new window with the address, say "www.mywebsite.com/page.php?value=..." where "..." is what the user types in the input text field. The page the user is sent to then performs some action. Now they're asking me to make the page automatically perform that action, as in, they want the .FLA to send the value typed in by the user to that page at [URL] without the user actually going to that page at all. Is this flash-related or even possible?
In short what I'm asking is: Is it at all possible, in principle, to hand a value over to a .php page using flash and then make that page perform an action without being opened? If so could you point me in the direction of how to do it?

Im using the Lightbox 2.0 [URL] And a flash movie in the same page. Now ive got this thumbnail slider in the flashmovie with thumbnails loaded from an xml file. As soon as i hit a thumbnail i want the Lightbox to show the full image of the thumbnail.
I've got everything set up and if i test if the Lightbox works with an html link it works perfectly:
HTML Code:
<a href = "path/to/image.jpg" rel="lightbox" title="my Title">Lightbox test</a>
Now my question is how do I call the same action in AS?
I understood the rel attribute refers to both the Lightbox JavaScript and the StyleSheet. But i really dont know how to set the rel attribute in flash.

if it is possible to activate lightbox 2 from flash.
As extracted from the Lightbox tutorial, lightbox needs an <a href> tag with a rel="lightbox" attribute to be activated.
e.g.
Code:
<a href="images/image-1.jpg" rel="lightbox" title="my caption">image #1</a>
However I dun think it is possible to use getURL(); for this in flash right?
is there a work around for this? what i am aiming to do is have the user click on an image/mc in my flash
e.g.
Code:
my_mc.onRelease = function() { // Activate lightbox from here };
and have it call the light box up.

I have a row of movie clips which act as buttons with an inactive state, active state, selected state etc. What I am seeking is kind of like a controller button which when clicked will activate or de-activate this row when clicked. I thought the best way might be to set frame labels and add a goto sript for the controller button to make each button go to the activate frame when the controller button is clicked.

I have made my character and inside of its symbol I created its stand still - stop(); - frame before its left and right walking cycles which are both 5 frames long. Now my question is what action script do I use to move both left and right while activating my walk cycle when the arrow is down. Would someone please write out the script for me?

I have a button which, when a user drags it onto a movieclip is supposed to cause that movie clip to advance to frame 2. What I've used so far is this:
Code:
on (press) {
startDrag(this);[code]..........
The button drags fine, but when released over the movieclip nothing happens. I've tried using "_parent.slide1_mc.gotoAndStop(2);" instead to no avail.
